Episode 40: Racism and Eugenics

FULL DISCLOSURE I filmed the intro a few weeks ago, I'm not about to go perform in Cleveland. I already did, it was wonderful. I apologize for the blooper, it's been a wild few weeks and I'm catching up.


This episode is with a good friend and another DCP advocate Eric. Eric is a late discovery DCP who has been diving into the foundation of donor conception which is eugenics. Racism still heavily influences our current donor conception market, and until we acknowledge that to the fullest extent, we can't fix it. Eric runs a support group for BIPOC DCP to help others navigate those emotions and lived experiences.
