Ossiana Talks to Dana DuBois: Parenting in Trump's America
A recording from Dana DuBois and Ossiana Tepfenhart's live video
Ossiana Tepfenhart, thanks so much for inviting me to talk about how we parent in Trump 2.0—and especially how we launch our kids into college and adulthood in the throes of… gestures at everything.
It’s an awful mess, but it sure helps when we have likeminded folks to talk to about it.
Here’s my latest essay on this topic, just live today on Blue Amp Media:
Also on tonight’s show, Ossiana proposed we host a “Crones Cocktail” live on Substack, where we drink and read Tarot and astrology and play with our cats.
I’m SO in.
Lawrence Winnerman, we’re gonna need t-shirts…
Thank you Sushipheliac 🍣🍥🍣, V for Violet 🕯️, LeftieProf, Maura, Katinka Lyngroth, and many others for tuning in.
