Episode description
On this episode, Yvette interviews founder of "Hermanas in the Law" and visiting law professor Paulina Vera about the article "Silent Screams from Within the Academy: Let My People Grow" by Peter Alexander and her experiences as a Latina woman in academia. They discuss the soul-sucking aspect of abiding by respectability politics, how Paulina handles students who challenge her authority, and how few white academics have accepted the pervasive white supremacy across higher education.
