Episode 12: Colin Kaepernick & 50 Experiences of Racially Mixed People
After a quick check-in on the #OhBetsy story of the week, Jeanette shares the motivations behind and initial reaction to her new hair style. This segues perfectly into a conversation about how hair can closely relate to identity and the latest discussion around Colin Kaepernick. Finally, we begin a new regular segment on the podcast: 50 Experiences of Racially Mixed People, starting with the first five on the list.
- Jeanette's New Hairdo (10:30)
- Colin Kaepernick (18:40)
- 50 Experiences of Racially Mixed People, 1-5 (32:30)
