On this week’s episode of the Waves, Hanna, June, and Nichole are joined by Rachelle Hampton to discuss her recent cover story for Slate, “The Black Feminists Who Saw the Alt-Right Threat Coming.” These women identified and responded to one of the earliest disinformation campaigns on the internet, well before both Gamergate and the 2016 election—so why have their experiences been ignored for so long? Then, New York magazine’s “Marriage: An Investigation” collected the stories of couples (and throuples) who’ve pushed the institution to its breaking point in order to answer one question: Is it obsolete? The hosts debate the relevance (and significance) of marriage in 2019 and share anecdotes from their own lives. Finally, they reflect on Someone Great, Gina Rodriguez’s new Netflix “rom-com in reverse,” unpacking what it might say about the future of the genre.
