Anna Malaika Tubbs is a two-time New York Times bestselling author and a leading voice in gender, race, and equity. Her newest book Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden From Us is a wake-up call, one that challenges us to rethink everything from who gets remembered to who gets rewarded.
When you read the title of this episode, you may have thought that I’m here to tell you about the next app you need to download or the algorithm hack you're already late to.

The moves the sanest, smartest women I know are already making quietly.
