Episode description
Join hostess Taylor Sparks for this LIVE an engaging and very informative conversation with Kevin Patterson, founder, of Poly Role Models and author of his new book, Love Is Not Colorblind: The Intersection of Race and Polyamory.
Polyamory in and of itself is something mainstream America is still struggling to understand and accept. Now throw in the over all issue of race in this country and take a hard look at what is means to now live a diverse love style.
The issues that make monogamous dating daunting for people of color—shaming and exclusion by white partners, being fetishized, having realities of everyday racism ignored—occur in polyamorous relationships too, and trying “not to see race” only makes it worse.
