What this episode covers
Today we’re confronting a hard truth: viral Dominican podcast clips are pushing anti-Black, colorist talking points that harm our people—especially Dominican women. We unpack how Eurocentric standards and colonized thinking shaped this mindset, why Dominican diversity is a strength, and why education is the real way out. This is a call to uplift our community with pride, accountability, and truth.
