Cemetery Confessions: A Goth Talk Podcast

In this episode we are going to explore Goth's White Hegemony: Racism, Gatekeeping and Identity. We'll be looking at the ways the mechanisms of white supremacy show up in the goth scene, what we can do about it, and whether goth is a music based subculture. Our guest this episode is Shonalika!
