In this podcast episode, Dr. Chi discusses the trial of P. Diddy, billionaire music producer and businessman, who was charged with racketeering and sex trafficking. Rather than thinking of him specifically, she discusses issues surrounding the socialization of women into the “freak offs.” Listen to discussions of colorism, homophobia, and love-bombing.
