Episode 71: Representation and Appropriation

This week, Andrew talks about his trip to Bellingham and Emily chats about her upcoming mini-tour of Texas.

A few of our listeners asked us to talk about Black History Month, so Emily wanted to talk about the importance of representation (and how black women are more likely to die in childbirth and how black children are perceived as being older) and Andrew wants to talk about cultural appropriation.

We also talk about the She Shreds article highlighting 100 black women who play guitar.

Here’s a link to the podcast American Scandal, which discusses the payola scandal.
