Episode 46: Jessica Krug and the Caricature of Race and Ethnicity
Available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and iHeartRadio.
In this episode, we discuss Jessica Krug--the George Washington University history professor who was exposed for lying about her race and ethnicity. Since it's Tia's birthday, we take a detour from our usual topics to discuss one of Tia's favorite people--Meghan Markle. Specifically, we discuss Prince Harry and Meghan Markle becoming financially independent thanks to a $150 million Netflix deal. We also talk about the boats that sunk during a Trump Boat Parade in Texas.
