Show Notes
For our first episode of the new year, Carie and Ross break down one of Ross' favorite made-for-tv movies, The Rosa Parks Story. Ross provides a great deal of historical context regarding Jim Crow and the laws that segregated Black people from Whites, Carie gets incensed over never hearing the name Claudette Colvin in school, and the siblings remark on how Angela Bassett patently refuses to age.
