'In Our Shoes' explores race, gender & where they intersect

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

America is perhaps not as deserving of the "post-racial" label as some may wish to think, according to a new memoir jumping into that conversation.

"In Our Shoes: On Being a Young Black Woman in Not-So 'Post-Racial' America" is culture journalist Brianna Holt's debut. Through essays, Holt discusses her lived experiences and offers cultural critiques.

She joins In the Moment to talk about cultural appropriation, medical bias and what white women in particular can do to support equity for Black women.
