Great podcast

Necessary for our times

No longer supporting

I’m disappointed in how much time I invested in this podcast and these two – they are both Zionist, and if it’s not evident from some of their more recent episodes, it should be now with their lack of any acknowledgment of the genocide happening in Palestine. Anti-racism work should never exclude Palestinians and their fight for liberation, so naturally, the work of Hannah and Yseult should not be called Anti racist Work.

Delusional

These women are delusional, nonsense-spewing idiots. Please educate yourself elsewhere. Total trash.
