In Part 2, the conversation deepens.

Jacqueline explores what followed Renée Good’s death — the media framing, the fixation on identity over action, the blocking of bystanders who tried to help, and the stark contrast in how empathy is extended depending on power, alignment, or narrative convenience.

With named examples, audible evidence from video footage, and personal lived experience, this episode examines familiar patterns seen in domestic violence and sexual assault: when women flee danger, they are blamed; when they are harmed, their character is scrutinized; and when the truth is inconvenient, silence becomes policy.

This episode also reflects on empathy — how it’s learned, how it’s punished, and why dismissing it as weakness carries real human cost.

The question isn’t whether the truth is uncomfortable.
The question is what it costs us when we refuse to face it.
