EP. 454 — 454: De-colonizing Beauty Standards, Stella Immanuel, Racism in a Pink Cadillac

On this week’s Throwing Shade, Erin talks about the ways in which women are taking control of their own bodies by pushing back against Eurocentric beauty standards in quarantine – plus, tips on health-ifying your aesthetic routine. Then, Bryan discusses the case of Stella Immanuel, the doctor who claims masks are unnecessary and gynecological problems are caused by demon sperm, as well as a Mary Kay saleswoman who was dropped after removing a Black Lives Matter sign in order to “send a message.”
