When should I say "BIPOC" and when should I not? Should I say minority or minoritized? What about underprivileged? What does virtue signaling really mean? Why is the term "microaggression" controversial, even in the antiracism movement? What's the problem with saying underprivileged? I address all of these questions and more.

I wanted to break up some of the lesson-type episodes with a personal story. In this episode, we’re breaking down an experience I had when a white woman came up to me and said some kind words that actually carried a tough message. We’ve all been there, where good intentions don’t play out quite right. So we all have something to learn from this.

I’d bet money that you don’t know as much as you think you know about critical race theory. I was surprised when I went to the original work of the scholars who created it. In this episode, we clear away the assumptions and we get right at the heart of the matter: What is critical race theory, really?

This is part one of a two-part series on critical race theory. Check out CRT 102, the episode where we address modern issues with what CRT has become.

Trigger warnings are well-meaning efforts to consider the effects of discussing heavy topics. But study after study has shown that trigger warnings have no positive effect on mental health for anyone, let alone people experiencing PTSD. Trigger warnings are a direct violation of what psychologists teach us about trauma, harm, and healing. This episode is a brief, intriguing look at how I came to the conclusion that trigger warnings do more harm than good.

In this episode, I teach you how to identify the root issue so you can respond well. Apathy and hatred are similar, but they are opposite issues. Different problems need to be met with different solutions.
