Summary
The sisters speak with students at Dartmouth about the political potency of this moment in context of our histories, uplifting lessons from our ancestors, this uprising time, finding our work and saving what we love.
note: adrienne critiques the term 'people of color' in this episode, and to be clear, she is speaking not of the phrase in its original purpose of solidarity, but of the collapsing use of the phrase to erase the nuance of distinct cultural experiences.
