The Episode:
Conventionally Attractive: What else does the convention govern beside attraction?
Conventionally attractive is just a euphemism for white eurocentric beauty ideals that white people themselves both control and regularly fail (and when they fail it, they shift the goalpost ever in their favor)
-GOP-1s/GLP-1s: A global "rightward" conservative drift coinciding with a boon in the weight loss drug industry, a billion dollar social media attention economy focused mostly on how people look and a concurrent decline in advocacy for Congo, Sudan, Haiti and the ongoing genocidal violence against Black people in this country may be revealing an uglier truth about white supremacy than once thought before.
Who has capital and who doesn’t all wrapped up in who is beautiful or not, another such binary created by the State

Who Tf Was I Friends With? Community and Friendships in the Age of Aquarius feat Elle Moxley
Parts 1 and 2
If the shoe fit, go grab some socks
"without community, there is no liberation, only the most vulnerable and temporary armistice between an individual and [their] oppression."--Audre Lorde
Join us for a special episode of Black People Tell Black History (yes, it's giving very much Anita Baker 365 days of the year same ol love) with our love Elle Moxley talking about community, how some of ya;ll wouldnt know what it is if it fell and hit you in the head and how market forces, capitalism and white supremacy are driving us away from each other, the theft of our culture is driving us away from each other in an attempt to lessen our pride in our shared identity and even that's not enough to assure solidarity, gentrification is physically doing the job of isolating Black folks from one another. So what do we do?
When it comes to liberation, everybody won't come (and don't want to)
Everybody is not your friend and how we (mostly Ebony) are resisting all of that and subsequently learning the hard way.
Thank you, ReesaTeesa.
