***EPISODE TRANSCRIPT*** https://docs.google.com/document/d/151sqrdHm9sLYdtd1qVHbSOWrwEb-ovvEfL5OS7bOB14/edit?usp=sharing Back in the loft for episode 4. In the reviews...Michaela Coel features twice with I May Destroy You and Been So Long. I spoke about the Disclosure documentary and No Stupid Questions' episode titled 'What does it mean to be a hard worker?'. The Lofty Thought was...surviving racism. I shared my attempt to develop a holistic strategy to address the effect of anti-black racism and spoke about the harm that racism inflicts along with some tools that have or haven't worked for me to minimise that harm.
