Episode 89: Sister Girl Bonds (with Dr. Kimberle Crenshaw)

Another Round | Apr 26, 2017

This week we chat with Dr. Kimberle Crenshaw about her term "intersectionality," the #SayHerName campaign, and her favorite Prince song. And Animal Corner is back! Tracy counters Heben's bat skepticism with a fervent defense of bats aka little puppies dressed up like Dracula. Shout out to bats. Plus rounds for shower sisters and long lost sisters.
