   Episode 32, “The Caucacity”

   Ep. 32 Professional Therapist Wanda McCants joined us to “Spill the Tea” (https://spill-the-tea-llc.business.site/) about all kinds of bullshit and how tolerance is a scam. Caucacity is the audacity (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=audacity) of white people. Meaning, the willingness (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=willingness) to take bold (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bold) risks only white people feel safe doing. Cited from Urban Dictionary (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Caucacity). Remember to celebrate women every day of the year, not just in March.
