Jay is petty and I here for it. 😂😂😂

Translation: I didn’t care who might have died, money was more important to me, and I want to remind you of that, even though I know you will celebrate my level of petty.

More like, as a young person with limited options and limited information I engaged in an activity similar to bootlegging, but unlike white people no matter what I have done with my life since that point, the fact that I once sold drugs is all people seem to notice or comment on, and periodically people seem to forget that no one is perfect and no one does or should spend their entire life apologizing for the mistakes of their past.

When the two annoying PCVs end up hooking up

[npr]

We’ve all been there — having fun relaxing with friends and family, when someone says something a little racially off. Sometimes it’s subtle, like the friend who calls Thai food “exotic.” Other times it’s more overt, like that in-law who’s always going on about “the illegals.”

So what exactly do you do? We delve into the issue on this week’s episode of the Code Switch podcast, featuring writer Nicole Chung and Code Switch’s Shereen Marisol Meraji, Gene Demby, and Karen Grigsby Bates.
