There is much being made of the slap heard 'round the world, when Will Smith hit Chris Rock openhanded at this year's Academy Awards ceremony. There is much less being made of Chris Rock's joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's alopecia and how disabled women - especially disabled Black women - are seen in society. Let's talk about it! Disability advocate and journalist Cara Reedy joins to break it down. Support Woke AF Daily at Patreon.com/WokeAF to see the full video edition of today's show, and dozens more.
