In episode 7 of LET'S TALK ABOUT "____", Jhanelle, a mixed-race activist and upcoming chemistry PhD student, joins Sara on a Zoom call to talk about the very relevant and important truths behind race in modern society. They discuss how exactly race shapes our path in life, our consciousness of white privilege, white fragility, anti-black discrimination and racial prejudice, and how understanding these concepts affects our future. This hour-long episode features Jhanelle's honest retelling of her experiences living in Dudley, West Midlands, from witnessing regular far-right marches, micro-aggressions at school, to experiencing 'imposter syndrome' during her chemistry studies at a world-class institution. Sara and Jhanelle dissect the various forms of anti-black racism, the disadvantages of collective terms such as POC and BAME, and the white 'ideal', whilst also touching upon regional differences in matters of race within the UK, and drawing differences between the UK and US.
