This week we are joined by Rachel Leah (writer at Salon.com covering culture, race and criminal justice) for a conversation on some difficult topics but also about what may be the beginnings of a cultural shift.
Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, R Kelly, Michael Jackson, Bryan Singer… Recently there’s been a wave of shocking articles, exposés and documentaries about allegations of sexual misconduct by high profile artists and industry titans.

How can it be possible that these allegations have been industry, and even public, knowledge for years and still their careers flourish?

Rachel Leah has been covering these topics extensively and joins us this week for an in-depth conversation.
