Description

One of James’ ol High School Prom dates is back: Leah Edun and she’s been busy since the last time she was on the show: she had a baby and they talk about the realities of parental leave, or lack thereof in the US. But first... The R.Kelly trial.. It’s happening. And it is a lot. Flipping the script, HBO’s The White Lotus starts a really great conversation around race, it really only scratches the surface - does white hubris in the writers room strike again? Netflix’s Pray Away documentary dives into the history, and truth around conversion therapy how it sky rocketed, the queer people who started it, and the horrifying facts around it, and how it has rebranded today. Guest Co-Host: Leah E. (she/her) a digital marketer, hot sauce enthusiast, traveler, obscure fact seeker, and comedy admirer. REFERENCE LINKS: The White Lotus- Scratches the Surface of the ConversationR Kelly Trialhttps://www.vulture.com/2021/08/r-kelly-trial-accuser-testimony-herpes.htmlhttps://www.vulture.com/2021/08/r-kelly-trial-aaliyah-abuse-marriage-testimony-details.htmlhttps://www.themarysue.com/r-kelly-trial-aaliyah-abortion/https://www.vulture.com/2021/08/r-kelly-trial-recap-week-one.htmlhttps://www.vulture.com/2021/08/r-kelly-sex-crime-trial-opening-arguments-recap-testimony.htmlConversion TherapyChallenge to Washington's law banning conversion therapy rejected in courtNPR- Former 'Ex-Gay' Leaders Denounce 'Conversion Therapy' In A New DocumentaryPray Away - Review:  Exposing the lie of conversion therapy If you’re thinking about suicide, you deserve immediate help - please call the Trevor Lifeline at 866-488-7386. Minority Korner on YouTube:  https://bit.ly/2JsXEuuCONTACT USTwitter: @minoritykornerEmail: minoritykorner@gmail.comIG: @minoritykornerHost/Producer: James Arthur M: TW: @JamesArthur_M, IG: @JamesArthur
