Support the Girls is a one-bad-day film following Lisa (Regina Hall), the manager of a sports breastaurant called Double Whammies. This movie explores the worker-manager-owner relationship, the intersections of race, class, and gender in the workplace, and the cathartic nature of friendship and solidarity.
We are joined by our friend and honored guest, Christee, an artist and worker in the food service industry. Thanks to Christee for recommending this film and for bringing her insight and experience to this episode! She puts it best: "Waiting tables in the United States is a performance art."
