Throughout history we have found ways to regulate human behaviour through the threat of social exclusion. But while the idea of ‘cancellation' is not new, the online sphere has radically shifted the way we hold people to account and punish perceived wrongdoing.  Is redemption possible in the digital age? And can narratives of growth and forgiveness help us shift the power from condemnation to compassion? What does ‘forgiveness' look like in the digital age?    David Baddiel is an accomplished comedian, author, screenwriter and television presenter.

Tuesday's Book Club is a bi-weekly podcast series that dives into some of the most inspirational stories of all time, such as this one. The show is hosted by Nova Lorraine, founder of Raine Magazine, and her two co-hosts: Tobi Santagado and Barbara Donato. Together, on this week's episode of Tuesday's Book Club, they explore – Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body by Roxane Gay. From the New York Times bestselling author of Bad Feminist: a searingly honest memoir of food, weight, self-image, and learning how to feed your hunger while taking care of yourself. “I ate and ate and ate in the hopes that if I made myself big, my body would be safe. I buried the girl I was because she ran into all kinds of trouble. I tried to erase every memory of her, but she is still there, somewhere. . . . I was trapped in my body, one that I barely recognized or understood, but at least I was safe.” In her phenomenally popular essays and long-running Tumblr blog, Roxane Gay has written with intimacy and sensitivity about food and body, using her own emotional and psychological struggles as a means of exploring our shared anxieties over pleasure, consumption, appearance, and health. As a woman who describes her own body as “wildly undisciplined,” Roxane understands the tension between desire and denial, between self-comfort and self-care. In Hunger, she explores her past—including the devastating act of violence that acted as a turning point in her young life—and brings readers along on her journey to understand and ultimately save herself. With the bracing candor, vulnerability, and power that have made her one of the most admired writers of her generation, Roxane explores what it means to learn to take care of yourself: how to feed your hungers for delicious and satisfying food, a smaller and safer body, and a body that can love and be loved—in a time when the bigger you are, the smaller your world becomes.

Roxane Gay describes her wild trajectory as a multihyphenate writer-editor-publisher-professor-social commentator as “fairly bewildering.” And she's not wrong: Over the past decade—and with long odds stacked up against her as a queer Black woman of size—Gay has had a meteoric rise in the media and publishing stratosphere, achieving rare heights. She has written a best-selling memoir, Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body (2017); a book of essays, Bad Feminist (2014); and two collections of short stories, Ayiti (2001) and Difficult Women (2017). She publishes a weekly newsletter called The Audacity and hosts The Roxane Gay Agenda podcast. Gay is also a contributing Opinion writer for The New York Times. This spring, she launched the Roxane Gay Books imprint with the publisher Grove Atlantic, and this fall, she begins her rarified position as the Gloria Steinem Endowed Chair in Media, Culture, and Feminist Studies at Rutgers University-New Brunswick. Her next book, the astutely titled How to Be Heard, comes out in the spring. Across all of her work, Gay addresses topics related to feminism, women's rights, rape culture, sexual violence, weight and body image, trauma, race, and friendship. Gay, it is safe to say, is one of the most essential writers of our time, someone hyperattuned to the moment we're in and who fights like hell for the issues and causes she deeply believes in. Now in a well-earned position of power, she uses the influence she has to elevate the voices of other writers she feels are being or have been overlooked.On this episode of Time Sensitive, Gay talks with Spencer about her nomadic childhood across America as the daughter of Roman Catholic Haitian immigrant parents, her fluid and flexible approach to time, and her open-armed joy of cooking.Special thanks to our Season 6 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Roxane Gay[04:16] Bad Feminist[04:16] Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body[13:01] Gloria Steinem Endowed Chair in Media, Culture and Feminist Studies[13:12] Roxane Gay Books[13:16] The Audacity Newsletter[13:18] Roxane Gay Agenda Podcast[13:22] Roxane Gay MasterClass[45:31] Ayiti[45:31] An Untamed State[45:31] Difficult Women[48:20] T Magazine “Cooking Class” videos

Actor, presenter and advocate Jameela Jamil tells Zawe why we need to own the narrative around women's bodies. Jameela started out on T4 in 2009, before becoming the first solo female presenter of the Radio 1 Chart show. But it was her move to the States in 2016 which really propelled her into the international spotlight. Taking on acting for the first time, she landed a role in the NBC series The Good Place, she's appeared in numerous films and TV shows and has recently been cast by Marvel. All the while being an honest, raw and outspoken voice on social media. She's not afraid to call out the beauty, fashion or media industries for their unrealistic expectations of women, she's publicly criticised various celebrities for the impact their words and actions can have on their fans, she's campaigned to get social media platforms to better protect teenagers and her instagram feed and podcast I Weigh have become a movement to encourage everyone to feel good about their bodies. Jameela's book choices are: ** Hunger: A Memoir of my Body by Roxanne Gay** Period Power by Maisie Hill** The Transgender Issue by Shon Faye** The Vagina Bible by Dr Jennifer Gunter** Everything's Trash but it's OK by Phoebe Robinson Zawe Ashton, acclaimed actress, director, playwright and author, hosts Season Four of the chart-topping Women's Prize for Fiction Podcast.

“The story of my body is not a story of triumph,” Gay writes in the opening pages of her book “Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body”. “Mine is not a success story.” A remarkable story of one woman's quest to overcome the pain of childhood trauma, and the difficult chapters leading up to the realization of a woman who found herself at over 500 pounds. The real story here is the story behind the story. Roxane Gay is a highly accomplished woman. Her story and her determination are nothing short of remarkable.

I loved Roxane Gay’s writing after I discovered her in Bad Feminist and I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of her book, Hunger - A Memoir of (My) Body. This book captivated me from the get go. I listened to it twice in a row because I wanted to make sure I really “heard” her. There was so much to take in and process, as a reader, as a helping professional, and as a health at every size advocate. Dietitians aren’t taught how to be “trauma informed” (unfortunately) and I had to do pretty much all my learning on the job. Hunger is already a New York Times bestseller and Gay brings up several systemic oppression issues against people in large bodies and people of color in large bodies (hello, intersectionality). While I eagerly await to hear from her book publicist to grant me a podcast interview (hey, I had to try… I’m sure she’s like “oh, how cuuuuute. no.”) Anyway… I know people are reading this and I desperately wanted to sit down with another helping professional to discuss and process together. Enter Dr. Maria Paredes. She was just as enthralled with Hunger as me. She has experience counselling trauma survivors. She is also a health at every size advocate. Tune in to hear us chat about Hunger and some of the key issues Roxane brought up in the book, both as a personal story of her experience in her body and how large bodies are treated in general by our diet culture. I dare you to listen and say anything but, “THIS SH*T AIN’T RIGHT”. Thanks for tuning in.
