031: BE AN AMERI-CAN

I got to sit down and talk to Torrie O'neil, founder of THE MIGHTY DAMES, about what it is like being a larger-bodied Jiu-Jitsu player and why representation matters. It quickly turned into a full examination of America and a call to do better as her citizens. At the intersection of race, gender, class, and sexuality lies the answers to creating a more just and equitable society. This, in turn, will help us all show up completely for ourselves and for everyone else. It's Ameri-CAN, not Ameri-CAN'T, motherfuckers. Let's GOOOOOO.
