This week has been amazing I have so enjoyed the variety of different voices that have been brought forward it opens up the dialogue for so many people it’s not just about the news of the day it’s about things it can help the most that’s reaching into ourselves and reaching out to others and if the bothersome people too bad. The show needs a lot more of a rotation of host cohosts communicators commentators it from spectrum to be a hell of a lot more inclusive. It wasn’t just us post game it’s been this entire week seeing Brett, Mark, Guest cohosts our one hour to and the post games have just been amazing because there is a switch up of faces voices and experiences! This needs to happen more often. You have a wide range of viewers and yes we come to the main show for news but how it’s being presented by different points of view And voices with different life experiences that actually reflect your audience in such a Broadway keeps this show fresh. Bravo to this week!
Aida – I love you! You are my voice speaking on so many issues related to being Latina and as a woman. Thank you for sharing your stories, and continuing to find your strength. Maytha & Grace – you are all amazing women!! Love love love this panel.
I cried while listening to Aida and Grace talk about losing their courageous younger selves. Me too. Hope we can stop that happening to future generations.
Thanks for the chat ladies. ..to this day, I will never forget thhe heart-break of not being allowed to play little league baseball! My dad coached and I practiced w/the team – I was good. It was litterally just before the battle of the sexes …go Billie-Jean. ============]
This was an amazing post game, ladies. I’m mixed guy, white, latino, and pinches of other things, and I grew up super gender queer. There’s so much here that I relate to and so much valuable perspective that is important for more people to hear.
I grew up in the 90s and one thing I remember is how racism seeped in through animated television, how dark meant dangerous. When I was 10, my family learned that my great grandfather passed for white in WWI and my grandma had black cousins in different places throughout the country. I also grew up in a heavily hispanic area with less than a 1% black population, so prior to that my only exposure was weird caricatures on television. By that time, I still didn’t fully comprehend the things race meant to people and had no idea what it actually is, but I had already developed the basis for reacting to people of color differently.
Sometimes it’s subtle, and maybe not even consciously racist by the producers. TV heavily pushed homophobia, making fun of characters when they went outside their assigned gender roles. I’m heavily encouraged by the modern generation, where like minds can find each other and just be themselves unashamed, despite opposition (slowly decreasing) from the rest of society.

Aren’t Progressives supposed to be more tolerant?
