It's Black History Month, so we're getting into a movie that made fat Black film history (for better or for worse): Precious (2009). Content creator Jade Haylee joins Abby to dish on being called Precious as a schoolyard taunt, Gabourey Sidibe's comment section, Love is Blind, being lifted up, the Mo'Nique of it all, and why white audiences love Black trauma.
***This episode contains discussions of sexual assault, incest, and child abuse as depicted in Precious.***
