Tianna chats with mother of two, post-partum doula, and home-school educator Brianna Burton on the impact of The Oreo Dilemma; the false notion that academic status and education level is directly tied to the white race, and the stereotype that Black people who are well educated are considered "oreos" (black on the outside and white on the inside). We explore this conversation through a human, educator, and parent lens respectively as well as examine the effects of code switching and the integration of AAVE into conversations at work.
