Discussing the pros and cons of sisterhood and a new notion of "sistering" that might be a more hopeful path toward healing women's relationships with each other.
Guest Quote:
"Sisterhood is not about unity, about women coming together and agreeing about everything. It's about women acting in solidarity with each other, listening and responding, acting and advocating, showing up to do the work. Sisterhood is about honoring and acting on the obligation we have to each other. "
