81. Leave Amanda Seales alone! Black Autistic Women are Targets

Amanda Seales is being unfairly dog-pilled on. When people are cut down because they're honest and direct, what does this say about society at large? If it's unsafe for a successful, effective, beautiful neurotypical woman (I recorded this a week before she shared she was autistic - okay psychic!) to be unflinching in her anti-establishment critiques, what hope is there for the average black autistic woman? This episode dissects bullying dynamics, the price of honesty, Hollywood, blackness and the isolation that comes from being a truth-teller. I discuss:

• The Unfair Treatment of Amanda Seales and Its Implications on black autistic women
• The Intersection of Autism, Likability, and Professional Success
• Black Hollywood, oppression, and how bullies thrive in silence
