The one where we decolonize the rhetoric behind abortion rights.
This week's episode begins with a long ass recap of Adriana's whereabouts for the past several weeks. After taking a break from social media, social humans, and podcasting for a few weeks, we'll talk about the importance of resetting and truly utilizing solitude as a tool, opposed to a lonely burden. As "Social Summer," comes to a close, Adriana reflects on its lessons, and the hardships of getting out of her introverted element for a bit (and quickly running right tf back, because y'all are exhausting).
The Things I'm Currently Ingesting segment this week feels like less of a mindful reflection and accountability tracker, but more of a pop culture critique of the week's past. While Adriana does recount some of the amazing plant based foods, drinks, and supplements that she's been ingesting, most of the segment is spent discussing everything from industry predators, incredibly stupid production moves, and her love-hate relationship with the artist whom shalt not be named (ahem, the title).
In this week's Topic of the Week, we discuss the not-so-hot, hot topic of abortion rights and anti-abortion laws. Not only will we dive in to the history of the practice of abortion itself, but we also discuss the racist roots of its criminalization, and ways in which uterus-having folks can continue practicing autonomy over their bodies.
To wrap up, this episode's OG Says segment touches on the importance of picking your battles and being mindful of the ways in which your friendly debates can escalated into circular arguments. This episode closes with a Hoodoo-infused reminder that isolation, sometimes, is where our most substantial growth happens.
