A New York Times Best Seller "A must-read...Phoebe Robinson discusses competition and feminism in such a funny, real, and specific way, it penetrates the human brain and stays together with you." (Ilana Glazer, cocreator and costar of Comprehensive City) A hilarious and well-timed article collection about competition, gender, and pop culture from future humor superstar and 2 Dope Queens podcaster Phoebe Robinson Being a black woman in the us means contending with old prejudices and fresh absurdities every day. Comedian Phoebe Robinson has experienced her reasonable share over time: She's been unceremoniously relegated to the role of "the black friend", as though she is in some way the specialist on everything racial; she's been questioned about her love of U2 and Billy Joel ("isn't that...white people music?"); she's been called "uppity" for having an judgment in the workplace; she's been adopted around stores by security guards; and yes, people do ask her whether they can touch her mane all. The. Time. Now she's ready to take these matters to audio - and she is going to make you have a good laugh as she's doing it. Using her trademark wit alongside pop-culture personal references galore, Robinson explores from why Lisa Bonet is "Queen. Bae. Jesus" to wearing down the terrible mother nature of casting phone calls to offering her less-than-traditional advice to the future female chief executive and demanding that the NFL tidy up its act, all informed in the same conversational tone of voice that launched her podcast, 2 Dope Queens, to the top spot on iTunes. As personal as it is political, You Can't Touch My Head of hair examines our cultural weather and skewers our biases with humor and heart and soul, announcing Robinson as a article writer increasing.
