45: Another Cup of Tea – A Quarantine Hangout

45: Another Cup of Tea – A Quarantine Hangout


In Episode 45 Gen and Jette make another cup of tea and have a quarantine hangout–virtually! It’s been a wild ride since our last hangout episode in February. So we’ve got a lot to cover. We chat about what how we’ve been keeping busy and what we’ve been reading. (We’re crushing our Goodreads goals!)

So make yourself another cup of tea and join us for this quarantine hangout!



Show Notes

Jette found this Columbia lecture on YouTube and it is fascinating and very relevant now: Jake Gyllenhaal and Colm Toíbín: In Conversation The Year of James Baldwin.

Look to our Instagram highlights for some other great anti-racist resources.
