Continuing on from our last episode, Papua New Guinean actor, writer, theatremaker, and bad bitch extraordinaire Wendy Mocke joins Dylan, and Lungol talk cancel culture, Australia and China's imperial influence over the Pacific, and navigating colonial structures in the pursuit to tell our own stories. The tea in this episode is scalding, besties; Wendy reveals that she was the face of safe sex in PNG, Dylan finds out he actually lived in a Papua New Guinean prison, and Lungol sent some lady to the ER because her whiteness was so fragile. This week we send our love and solidarity to our siblings in West Papua and the Solomon Islands.
Make sure to check out "The 'm e r i' project" (linked below) because if you don't, you're racist. Also make sure to spread the word about what's going on in West Papua or else you're racist. Basically do everything we tell you to do or risk being anti-Black and getting punched in the throat, xoxo.
