The milk crate challenge has taken the timeline by storm, & it is perhaps a perfect metaphor for life. You take small, careful steps towards your goal only to fall swiftly (& sometimes painfully). In this 'game' few will prosper. Luck is a major factor in success for most, while others reach the goal by carefully strategizing & planning their steps.
The last few months might feel like the milk crate challenge for track star Sha'Carri Richardson as she finished dead last in her return to the track during the women's 100m event at the Nike Prefontaine Classic. The heaping wave of jeers & jokes pointed directly at the young phenom are only rivaled by the sweeping praise & adulation she received during her meteoric rise only months prior.
This sparked a debate as to whether or not this was just your normal par for the course sports banter or the mob seizing the opportunity to 'humble' a confident black woman. This week the Vexed Intellects offer some thoughts on this topic. Plus...
Jay-Z & Beyonce's Tiffany diamond campaign, 19 year old Lamelo Ball's "relationship" with 32 year old Ana Montana, Dell & Sonja Curry's divorce, Onlyfans' ban on sexually explicit content, Rachel Dolezal's feet pics, & an interesting theory on whether or not cheating is an illusion.
These topics & much, much, more on this episode of The Vexed Intellects!
