Episode 89: Representation Matters (ft. Jirka Jireh, Sarah Fernandez, Claudia Leung and Miguel de Leon)

{Content Warning: Sexual Assault} It’s a very special mic takeover by Jirka Jireh, Sarah Fernandez, Claudia Leung and Miguel de Leon to discuss Julia Moskin’s article in the New York times about Anthony Cailan and the culture of sexual assault in the natural wine community. It’s v good content and almost makes up for that “hey” nonsense from last week. Please listen to women and use your privileges (if any) to lift up others in our community.
