The Kamala Rebrand Nov 26, 2020

There has been this interesting take on how Kamala Harris was once referred to as a cop and there was an aversion to her, but then as she got closer to her election, she was positioned into her identity a bit more. The RAPpers decide to dissect this moment.

Between the World and Me Nov 19, 2020

In this all new episode of the Rational Anger Podcast, we discuss why it is important for us to recognize that Ta-Nehisi Coates has written an important piece of text, but it is not without critique to Somer's surprise! We connect the realness about whiteness to how that manifests in the United States today. Why is it relevant? Is this text for Black people? What stuck out to you in this piece of text? Have white people learned their lesson?
