Zibby is joined by fashion and beauty insider and debut author Danielle Prescod to discuss Token Black Girl, a sharp and witty new memoir about a Black girl’s racial identity, eating disorder, conditional self-love, and delusions of perfection. Danielle talks about revisiting painful memories–from being racially harassed in all-white private schools to developing bulimia at the age of 12 to struggling with her IVF treatment. She also talks about the business she founded to help beauty and fashion brands craft antiracist identities and marketing strategies.
