As a proud Bisexual woman myself, I am no stranger to the concept of biphobia. Biphobia is aversion toward bisexuality and bisexual people as individuals. It can take the form of denial that bisexuality is a genuine sexual orientation, or of negative stereotypes about people who are bisexual. It’s a common misconception that bisexuals are confused, greedy, promiscuous, must like and date both genders equally, it’s a phase, it’s the easy option, etc. In this episode, Bri and author and bisexual icon Jen Winston challenge these stereotypes and have candid conversations about being perceived as GREEDY in love and in life.

In June 2012 President Barack Obama instated the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals commonly known as the DACA Program. DACA offers protection that allows undocumented persons who grew up in the US to work legally without threat of deportation and a chance to apply for citizenship. DACA recipients are extremely crucial not only to the economy, but a variety of fields including artistry. This episode, Bri talks to artist and friend MANNYWELLZ about how being Undocumented can impact the life trajectory, self image, and mental health of someone growing up in America and raise awareness about how DACA status impacts artistry.

On this show we speak a lot about marginalized groups, and more recently we’ve been covering marginalized bodies. In the world today we see the fashion industry slowly shifting and making strides to be more inclusive of different body shapes and sizes, however this construct for clothing erases an entire population of people with both visible and non-visible disabilities. Some zippers and buttons may be difficult for people with dexterity limitations. Some clothing closures may need different placements or openings for individuals that require access for tubes, machines, and other ritual resources in their daily life. Together with adaptive fashion entrepreneurs Helya Mohammadian of Slick Chicks and Marta Elena Cortez-Neavel of Abilitee Adaptive Wear, Bri explores how the fashion industry can be changed even further to include and empower communities with specific medical needs and disabilities.

The “Model Minority Myth,” is an identity rooted in stereotypes that assumes Asian American children are academically inclined by nature, perfect/polite in various environments/skill sets, and will pursue careers in the S.T.E.M. field. What is the problem with the Model Minority Myth? Some may be confused... isn’t the idea of being disciplined, polite, and intelligent a good thing? Well, like many stereotypes, this erases the diverse identities, intersectionalities, and experiences within a group of people. This myth emphasizes the, “pull yourself up by the bootstraps ideal,” which can also erase the systemic advantages and disadvantages that play a part in one’s own success.

This week, join Bri as she dissects the outdated and problematic "myth" with Charlotte Nguyễn, a spiritual & transformational coach, speaker, activist and the pint-sized daughter of Vietnamese refugees.

Not all disabilities are visible.

We get THEE dirtiest looks when we pull into a handicap space as young people with the ability to walk. I get an up and down look when I mention I have a disability. This episode is close to home because non-visible disabilities are REAL. I saw a tweet where a woman said someone left a note on her car telling her off for abusing the system, “how dare you take a spot from someone who really needs it?!” The woman in the tweet revealed she was a stage 3 cancer patient. This episode, Bri explores navigating our world with an invisible disability, what to say (and what not to say), and why people should, well, mind their business with photographer, cinematographer, and her partner, Kris Head.

Many times when we think about intersectionality, we think about personal identity alone. Yet, our personal identity is shaped not only by our individual experiences, but how the world interacts with us. Often-times when we look deep into the beauty industry, the analysis stops at the surface. What if we really took time to see how beauty, pop culture, and politics intersect? How do Presidential Elections, Police Brutality, and Cultural Appropriation influence everything from shade ranges to corporate social media pages?

This episode, Bri unpacks all of this with writer and beauty reporter Darian Symoné Harvin and so much more.
