Chelsea is joined by Traci Thomas (The Stacks podcast) to break down one of the wildest letters to hit The New York Times Magazine: a white man wondering if prioritizing women of color in dating will advance his antiracism. They unpack the letter’s cringiest moments, the ethicist’s response (was it satire?), and why no woman wants to be compared to kale. Plus, Chelsea introduces her new viral article rating system—because some articles demand a group chat rant.
