We also spend the back half of the episode discussing the intersectionality and nuances of how to decolonize polyamory and how incredibly deeply engrained colonization is in everything around us.  Marjani is an amazing educator and has a wonderful platform that is so intersectional and also accommodating for different types of learning styles.
