Tina Fey’s sketch last week set off a debate about sheetcake feminism.” Fey urged viewers to ignore white supremacists who rally in places like Charlottesville and Boston. Instead, she urged them to support local bakeries and scream into their sheetcake, while refusing to engage.
Critics have said that Fey’s message is covered in privilege, and reflects the divide on the left that surfaced during the January Women’s March. Our guests discuss it. In studio:
- Vanessa Cheeks, reporter for Open Mic Roc
- Jackie McGriff, feminist and photographer
- Amber Tracy, local artist and art educator
- M. Elizabeth Thorpe, Ph.D., assistant professor of communications at The College at Brockport
