Listen "S4 Ep. 3 - "We are encouraged to chase and rarely to find " | Tragic Optimism with Dasia Washington"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we sit down with content creator and social commentator Dasia Washington to speak about her brilliant video 'The Tragic Optimists Guide to Surviving Capitalistic Nihilism' and how these concepts uniquely shape the Black woman experience.We unpack the exhaustion of hustle culture, the pressures of always striving for more, and the moments where everything feels absurd under capitalism. Dasia helps us to frame tragic optimism as a radical act of finding hope, humour, and meaning even in the midst of struggle. Dasia breaks down how she navigates these ideas in her own life, why we need space for both critique and joy, and how we can redefine resistance on own terms.If you've ever felt stuck between ambition and burnout, cynicism and hope, or simply wondered what’s the point of all this?—this one’s for you. Tune in for a conversation full of insight, laughter, and perspective shifts that might just help you see things differently.The alternative title from George: Do you roller skate?
