1 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha, and welcome to stuff 2 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: one ever told you protection if I hurt radio. 3 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,119 Speaker 2: And welcome to another feminist around the world. And today 4 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 2: we're doing something a little different. I feel like I've 5 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 2: done a lot of different things recently, already in twenty 6 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: twenty five, and you know, with it being a new year, 7 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: things are revamping. And honestly, we've had a lot of 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: good content, which I love, which means like some of 9 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: our other stuff have been kind of pushed aside, like 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 2: our typical episodes, So those are good times where we 11 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 2: can do current affairs or information sometimes. So what we're 12 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 2: doing today, it's just a matter of fact that there's 13 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 2: so much information out there, and I feel like sometimes 14 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: it's really hard to figure out who we should trust 15 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 2: and who we should not trust. So I thought we 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: could all collect and I'm saying this as all of 17 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 2: us come together and start a list, and because it 18 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: is chaotic right now, we need all the help we 19 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: can get. Being one person, being one small group of 20 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: people is not always It is not possible for us 21 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: to hit the nail on the head, like get it 22 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: perfectly right every time. And we know sometimes without knowing, 23 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 2: we might be talking or suggesting about problematic people. We 24 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 2: don't know the new histories, we don't know what's going 25 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 2: to come up. I think we've had this conversation when 26 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 2: we revisited some of our feminists around the world and 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: had to be like, well that didn't end well. Yeah, 28 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: because good starts may not have good intentions and we 29 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: don't know that till till later on, right, And I 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: feel like that could be a theme in itself. But 31 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: with all of that, we do need your help. So 32 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: if there are people that we are talking about, if 33 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: there are issues that we're talking about, if there are 34 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: sources that we're talking about that are problematic, we don't 35 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: realize it, please let us know gently and kindly. You've 36 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: already let us know when we have weird ads. Thank 37 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: you very much. We appreciate that very much. We need 38 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 2: that for information on people, but we also need your 39 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: suggestions on you feel our reliable resources as well. And 40 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 2: again I want to put this caveat and Annie and 41 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: I were just talking before essentially starting the episode that 42 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: people are not perfect and for some reason, especially when 43 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: it comes politically, we are expecting perfection and if they 44 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: have a blemish and don't get me wrong. Some issues 45 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: are like yeah, red flag, red flag, we need to 46 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 2: dismiss these people, but some level of like imperfection, and 47 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: we disregard them completely, and if they are not the 48 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 2: picture perfect person or if they have grown, like I 49 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: will say, if you had seen my opinions from nineteen 50 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: ninety nine, two thousand and one, two thousand and two, 51 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 2: you would I would not be friends with me, you 52 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: know what I mean? Yeah, And so a lot of that. 53 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 2: Of course, I was twenty years ago, and it took 54 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: twenty years of learning. It took twenty years years of 55 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 2: unlearning as well and trying to form my own opinions, 56 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 2: and even now sometimes my own opinions, I'm like, is 57 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: that correct? I need to do some more research, you know. 58 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: So with all of that, we know everybody's not perfect. 59 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: There might be some things that they have said that 60 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: you felt was problematic or offensive. And I get that 61 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: we are individuals, but putting them on a pedestal to 62 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: expect perfection is only asking them to fill and you 63 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: to feel disappointed. Yeah. 64 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and people do I mean, the people you truly 65 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: want to aspire to, in my opinion, are people who 66 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: like you, who like me not to say to aspire 67 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: to us, but you like learn You're like, Okay, that 68 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: was not a good Let me rethink that like the 69 00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: people who are willing to hear. Okay, I should look 70 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: at that again, I should research. I think those are 71 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: the people you. 72 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: Want exactly, exactly and essentially we and they are doing 73 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: the work for you, which is beautiful. And these are 74 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: the people that I'm talking about, and these are the sources. 75 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: So I thought we would highlight several several including a 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 2: big chunk of people from TikTok and social media that 77 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 2: you can follow as well, because that is kind of 78 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: how I'm getting my news and resources because I don't 79 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 2: completely trust the media right now, and I know I'm 80 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: not the only one. A lot of people are bowing down. Again, 81 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: social media in itself can be problematic, and that's that 82 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: conversation too. So this is why I'm saying, look for people, 83 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: look for individuals, and then give us good resources too, please. 84 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 2: And I thought we'd highlight a few from our own group, 85 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: from the iHeart Family, which includes bridget Todd. Obviously, her 86 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: work is literally in keeping the Internet honest and fighting 87 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: against disinformation and misinformation and digging into the depths of 88 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: the lack of representation of the marginalized people from spaces 89 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 2: like social media and text. So fear not following her. 90 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: If you're not listening to there are no girls on 91 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: the Internet, you're missing out. And then she's got ten 92 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: thousand other projects because she is a busy, busy, busy, 93 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: busy woman. She's also part of our secklists sometimes and 94 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: she's blessed us with her information. Hopefully she'll be back 95 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: on soon. Yeah, just a why, But with all that, 96 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: you should be following her. Margaret Killjoy and she's been 97 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 2: working to help fight against fascism for a whole long 98 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 2: time now, and she highlights people in history who have 99 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 2: pushed back against dictatorships and oppressors and all these things. 100 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 2: And I love it, and has some really sound advice 101 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: on how to survive the end of the world. She 102 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 2: lives on survivalist ideals and I love it. So if 103 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 2: you want some information, she's great. She also has a 104 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 2: great a lot of great fiction out there. You should 105 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: also read her books and of course with cal Willis, 106 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 2: she's an old friend of the show, old friend of 107 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: house Stuff Works. Honestly, she used to work for house 108 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: Stuff Works way back when and has written article after 109 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: article advocating for the rights of the queer community and 110 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: telling the stories of those who been unjustly persecuted or 111 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: harassed and abused by the system. So someone definitely you 112 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: should be watching as well, especially as a trans voice. 113 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 2: She has a lot of great information and worked with 114 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: some really great organizations. I would follow her recommendations as well. 115 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 2: So there's a few right there. From the social media tracks, 116 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: I decided I wanted to hop all over the place, 117 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 2: essentially because we want different types of information. We have 118 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: coach Jackie Jay and that's her username on TikTok. These 119 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: are all from TikTok, the ones I'm telling you right now, 120 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: and these are either their names or user names.

I really love her, 123 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: wanting her on for the Olympics and Paralympic stuff. Maybe 124 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: we can still get her on. I know she's pretty busy, 125 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: but she does some great information, great details, and it's 126 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: very passionate about women's sports. We have Alexis Nicole from Well, 127 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: you can find her everywhere. She's pretty big now, but 128 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: she has great foraging content, very cutesy style. She's so cute. 129 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 2: She's so cute, and she comes on and tells you 130 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 2: what to eat, what not to eat so you don't die. 131 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 2: So that's nice and I feel like that's a good 132 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 2: surviving skill to have. Yeah generally, you know, in general, 133 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 2: but I'm just like, if things go awry, Yeah, she's 134 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: someone like maybe her book will be good. And then 135 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: we have Dara sar Tucker, which you guys know because 136 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 2: we've had her on this show, and she is great 137 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: with good historical information and overall good information. She really 138 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 2: finds disinformation and misinformation as well, and talks a lot 139 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: about black history, including in music and entertainment. So definitely 140 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 2: someone you should be following. We have a Sophia Feifner 141 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: f n Er who does content on civic engagement like 142 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: that is her own content. It is actually really joyful. 143 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: She is a very positive individual, and I feel like 144 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: when you're in this type of profession to be positive 145 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 2: as a strength and trade, that's unusual. So someone that 146 00:07:59,120 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: you should definitely follow. 147 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: Uh. 148 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: Black dot Woman dot owned And this is on TikTok 149 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: as well. The creator came on and decided to do 150 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: a comprehensive list with suggestions from other people and vetting 151 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: black businesses that are owned by black women and brands 152 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: that you should support really big right now. You know, 153 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 2: I've complained repeatedly about where to go. They've got a list. 154 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: So there's that Evan the Bioethicist and their tag is 155 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: gay G Town bay g A y G t O 156 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 2: W N b A and they are Evan the bio Ethicists, 157 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: and they talk about misinformation and disinformation as it relates 158 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: to public health. Really important right now is a lot 159 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: of the federal organizations are shut down and that we 160 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 2: are not a part of who so really good to 161 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: go listen to and find out information as she is 162 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: teaching us about things in public health. We have doctor 163 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: Raven the Science Maven PhD in molecular biology. So if 164 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 2: you want to know science stuff but also have it 165 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: on a decolonized level, that's the person to go to. 166 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: Doctor Christy.

So it's a beautiful take 169 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: on what we really should be learning when it comes 170 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: to American history. So there's that. We have black Belt Babe, 171 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 2: and I'm trying to get her on this show because 172 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: I really love her perspective. But she is a social 173 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: media reporter. She calls herself the people's reporter who gives 174 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 2: great information on current affairs with passion. I'm gonna tell 175 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 2: you she is left leaning, so she gets passionate about things, 176 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 2: but she is not afraid about calling out everyone, which 177 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 2: is why I really enjoy her. Then you have Ali 178 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: a l y and our handle is Alius dot mom 179 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 2: dot in dot Germany. But she actually is combating US 180 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 2: propaganda with an outside perspective. She currently lives in Germany 181 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 2: but has her degree and has written many articles based 182 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 2: on propaganda in the US, and I think that's a 183 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 2: great perspective to have being outside of the country. So 184 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 2: her information is really good, especially right now when we're 185 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: overwhelmed with so much including social media being shut down 186 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 2: or being biased or whatever whatnot. She's got some great 187 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 2: information for you. We have a couple of others that 188 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 2: are not necessarily like misinformation disinformation, but like just as delightful. 189 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: I will say. Blondie in China is a young woman 190 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: named Amy who is a food and travel blogger who 191 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 2: lives in China, and she does an amazing job in 192 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: showcasing Chinese cuisine and food, like in a such a 193 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 2: respectful manner, and she loves splicy food and everything she 194 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: does is just kind. But it's nice to see she's 195 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: a white person from I want to say New Zealand. 196 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 2: I really hope she's from New Zealand. But that does 197 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 2: a lot of good food content, traveling all over different 198 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 2: areas in China, hiding different cuisines there, and like you 199 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: might not like everything she eats, but she does it 200 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 2: in such a respectful manner that you can't help but 201 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 2: want to try, so someone to look into. And then 202 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: Veronica Lightning Horse, I just discovered her. She is a 203 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: Native and indigenous storyteller who gives a lot of great 204 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 2: stories about law and wisdom that she knows from her 205 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: community and the fact that she's sharing these stories and 206 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: she does it such a beautifully like melodious way that 207 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: it feels very homey. But there's so many lessons to learn, 208 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 2: so very great kind of like cleanse your feed but 209 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: also learn a good life lessons. And then we have 210 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: other big names and sources that are not TikTok related 211 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: even though yes, I do live on TikTok, I know. 212 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: We have Jessica Valenti who speaks about abortion rights and 213 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: issues around the country. She's just published a book. We 214 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: should probably go and read it soon if you need 215 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: information and about what is happening in the state of 216 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: the US, the misinformation and disinformation that is being spread 217 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 2: and the propaganda against abortion rights. She's the person to 218 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: go to. You have Akila Hughes who's a comedian and 219 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 2: podcaster who talks about the issues at hand. She just 220 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: has a lot of great information and content that I 221 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 2: think is really important that we listen to. And then 222 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 2: we have Amani Barbaran who is a writer, speaker, an 223 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: advocate for racial disability and human rights. She has a 224 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: lot of disability content and disability activism because she is 225 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 2: a disabled individual, really great content, really good information to know. 226 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: I think she gives a really great perspective when it 227 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: comes to that conversation. Then we have jua Wa Gaturo 228 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: who is a black girl environmentalist that is actually her site. 229 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 2: She has a lot of good content about environmentalism and 230 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 2: especially when it comes to the intersectional portion of being 231 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 2: a black woman in this type of industry and what 232 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: that means for the black community in itself. You have 233 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: Stacy Abrams. I feel like that's an obvious but she 234 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 2: is back out in full swing and having conversation about activism. 235 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 2: At this point in time, she kind of took I think, 236 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 2: a step back for a minute, and now she's back. 237 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: Ashley c Ford another fla podcaster or an author, really 238 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 2: someone that we should be paying attention to and listening to. 239 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: She's done a lot of the work that we've been 240 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: begging for.

I 246 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: think we need that too. And then some sources that 247 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: we think and again I thank you Christina, our producer, 248 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 2: helped put some of the stuff together.
