Lynn Logic – Episode 38: Dear White People / Dear Black People

Lynn Logic – Episode 38: Dear White People / Dear Black PeopleIn this episode, I wade directly into uncomfortable territory—race, language, behavior, and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) ways people tell on themselves. This piece was inspired by a story my friend Stella shared with me about dealing with a racist coworker, and it turned into a broader conversation about awareness, accountability, and learning when to shut the hell up.First, Dear White People:We talk about words that are not ours to use, why whispering certain words is a dead giveaway, and how “but it’s in the song” is not the excuse you think it is. This part is blunt, unapologetic, and very clear—because clarity matters.Then, Dear Black People:This isn’t a lecture—it’s more like tips and tricks for white people, with a side of self-awareness, humor, and cheese. Yes, cheese. We talk about tokenism, curiosity versus ignorance, food, culture, and what it actually looks like when someone is trying to learn instead of perform.As always, I bring my background into it—widow of a cross-dressing alcoholic, survivor of a brain blood clot, 25 years in accounting and operations, BA in psychology, and a lifelong love of patterns, categories, and calling bullshit when I see it.This episode is funny, uncomfortable, honest, and very Lynn Logic.If you’re still whispering the word “black,” you probably need this episode.Hit like, subscribe, and buckle up.Chin Up, Tits Out.
