"So You're Black and Love a White-Dominated Sport"
It's a single Oreo episode with Amari interviewing her co-host of ESPN's Sound On with Tari & Amari, Tari Kandemiri. Tari is the creator of the popular social account, Official Lax Girl, the founder of skincare company Hama Beauty Inc, and on the Board of Directors of The Tewaaraton Foundation. Tari gives us the details on how she fell in love with lacrosse after moving to The States from Zimbabwe and growing her anonymous twitter account @officiallaxgirl to over 18k to express her love for the sport. Tari opens up about finding feminism through lacrosse and using her platform for equality as well as how lacrosse has opened so many doors for her. The two chat about the myth of men’s sports being more entertaining than women’s, being the only Black person on your team and the reality of being a huge face in lacrosse as a Black woman in a white-dominated sport.

"So...Can Minorities Be Racist?"
The Oreos answer the very important and complicated question, can minorities be racist? It's something we've seen discussed and wanted to do a deep dive to settle the answer once and for all. Kia and Janae are joined by Jasmine Price, an educator, professor, and most importantly, Janae's older sister. Janae explains the difference between prejudice, discrimination and racism before Jasmine gives a lesson on the circle of oppression, circle of equality and forms of injustice so we can truly understand if "reverse racism" is a thing. The episode ends with some very interesting social responses that spark an interesting convo.
