b"This week, Henry and Colin are joined by Kishonna L. Gray, an Assistant Professor in Communication and Gender and Women's Studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Editor of the book Woke Gaming: Digital Challenges to Oppression and Social Injustice. Woke Gaming argues argues that the intersection between the gaming culture and identity is deeply entangled with systematic exploitation and oppression in mainstream society. Listen in as Gray imagines a world where the gaming culture breaks down persistent racial stereotypes by becoming more diverse, equitable and inclusive. She even mentions a book that Henry edited in the 1990s!"
