Amazing and nuanced critique of American society & culture

I loved the episode with Aamer Rahman, the explanation of a ‘survival script’ was amazing as it gives a title for all the content that has helped me unlearn oppressive ideologies whether it comes to race, gender, sexuality etc. Thank you so much for doing what you do, can’t wait to hear future episodes!
