EP 13: The Color Purple

This week, in solidarity with BLM, Catherine and Maddie tackle the The Color Purple, the 1983 Pulitzer Prize winner for fiction by Alice Walker and the movie adaptation by Steven Spielberg. This story takes on the intersection of race, gender, and sexuality as Celie writes letters to God throughout her adulthood in the early 20th century. We talk about generational trauma, why you probably shouldn’t go on mission trips to Africa, and the journey to self-worth shared by so many queer people. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/queerpressurepc/support
