Summary

This week on Rants & Randomness, we’re sharing a conversation with Luvvie and her friend Sophia Bush. In June, Luvvie was part of the founding team for an online initiative called Share the Mic Now where 50 Black women took over the accounts of 50 white women. Sophia shared her IG account with Luvvie that day, and this episode is taken from a live conversation that they had the next day on IG Live. And if you love this conversation, don’t miss this week’s episode of Sophia’s podcast Work In Progress, where Luvvie is the guest.

0:47.3	privilege, what that looks like, and why these conversations
0:49.9	about privilege could actually save lives if we're paying
0:52.3	attention. And why we got to commit to stand up for each other
