144. Laverne Cox: MAGA, intersectionality and living out our politics (including COMPASSION)

I love the conversation Laverne’s admission has given rise too. A lot of it is shallow and obvious in its call to action (cancel Laverne) so I’d like to provide a deeper perspective rooted in compassion and consideration. I discuss: 

• Dating Across Political Lines
• The Intersection of Politics and Dating
• How people relate to their oppressors
• The Challenges Faced by Black Trans Women
• How black folks relate to white folks
• Dating preferences within a white supremacist world
