This week on Bag Ladiez we get an update from the #UAlbany incident (sort of), updates on the Akai Gurley trial happening right now in Brooklyn, more #animalrights (yo we stay talking about this lol), and Lunar New Year Celebrations (happy year of the Monkey!). We’re unpacking baggage surrounding culture and when it’s sometimes just kind of embarrassing to explain yourself (shoutout to our moms who don’t speak English but act like they do!). Also we’re so far gone on the #Hamilton train and we explain why and yooo we got an email from someone asking our advice! We think we gave some good advice but then again we’re Dominican and extra so do with it what you will haha. You can find all the links for our stories below!
