About the Podcast

Life & Anth
Join Us In Mystifying The Ordinary!
Beyond the rolling, manicured hills of the college campus that boasts graduating two of the three female Secretaries of State in history, lies a town with its namesake. Welcome to wealthy Wellesley, Massachusetts, where tensions between the college and the townies run high. Today, Lily is joined by guests Sophia and Ali, who both attended the College and worked in the town and offer their insight on the causes and manifestation. This episode defines terms such as positionality, emic and etic, and discusses the nature of purity narratives as they are portrayed through this unique relationship.
