Fat, Black and Queer - Power, Privilege and Unveiling Internalised Biases with Milo Hartill

Fat, Black and Queer - Power, Privilege and Unveiling Internalised Biases with Milo Hartill

Author: freyagraf September 2, 2024 Duration: 1:19:45

This week on The Labia Lounge pod we're dishing up some intersectional insights as I have some thought-provoking conversations with guest and fat, black and queer activist, Milo Hartill, AKA That Fat Diva!

We delve into the unspoken impact of internalized biases, such as fat phobia and racism. We explore the insidious nature of societal conditioning and the influence of media portrayal that contributes to the average mainstream person having some seriously messed up internalised prejudices. We have a dialogue around the importance of becoming aware of, and actively addressing and challenging, these biases in order to be better allies.

And we both share about our personal experiences with privilege, societal perceptions, and the challenges faced due to race, body type, and other factors.

We also address the discomfort of well-intentioned individuals approaching those with less privilege and the emotional labor expected from marginalized groups.


Join us as we explore the complexities of societal biases, the privileges we carry, and where we sit on the social justice scale, as well as the vital importance of continued effort towards allyship and deconstructing our internalised fat phobia, racism, ageism, homophobia, etc etc.


We invite you to engage in open conversations, challenge your beliefs, and strive for a healthier approach to self-acceptance and understanding others.

I believe that change starts with acknowledging our blind spots and taking steps towards a more inclusive and diverse society, and seeking out and consuming resources like this podcast and Milo's epic activism work to grow our awareness and compassion.


Plus you can expect all the usual antics and hilarious, vulnerable n' relatable personal stories and signature segments that you've come to know and love here in The Labia Lounge!


Make sure you're subscribed for more LL action, and it'd absolutely warm my heart and tickle my clit if you'd leave a gushing review or five star rating for the poddy!


Go follow Milo on IG @milohartill and check her out in the next production she's featuring in - a musical in Sydney called Flat Earthers at the Hayes theatre! (hilarious!)
