Episode 165 - THAT Episode of Queer Eye w/ Vilissa Thompson

In this episode, I sit down with Vilissa Thompson as we take a deep, deep dive into our race issues within the disability community. We look at race and anti-blackness in the disability community by exploring Season 4, Episode 4 of Queer Eye. We talk about Wesley Hamilton and his company, "Disabled, But Not Really" and the unspoken nuances of blackness and disability. We also talk about Vilissa being a social worker, a southern black femme and a whole lot more. Enjoy!
