About this episode
In this episode, Tiffany discusses the importance of controlling one's own narrative through the lens of three films in Black culture.

In this episode I want to share with you my ideas about how these three films in Black culture are a model for what more of us need to be thinking about. Let me give you a hint about this week’s episode. We are either authors of our own life’s story, or we are a character in someone else’s version. This week, I want you to think about the story you’re telling and why. I also want you to think deeply about who benefits when you don’t control your own narrative.
