Social Critiques from a Comedy Freak Perspective. In this episode, Borderline Latina tackles the age-old question: "are humans truly good?" Using an example from a 2022 Netflix film and other classic fairy tales, she discusses how aiming for goodness can deter folks from having difficult conversations for social change. Through the journey, she gets us to wonder whether we should strive for goodness or aim to be simply human.

Book info: "What happens when the binary lens begins to crumble, and humans are forced to see each other for what they truly are… In her debut novel, author Patricia Morency brings us 'Simply Platonish…' an intoxicating tale highlighting gender and race relations from an irreverent and often quirky point of view.

What she will find not only spices things up — but it forces everyone to ask themselves the hard questions as it pertains to love, companionship, and emotional connection."
