About this listen
Today we're talking about the Quarter Zip movement - young Black men trading in their Nike Techs for business casual, their coffee for matcha, their "YN" identity for something they're calling "Young Gentlemen." But to understand why this matters, we need to talk about what a "YN" actually is. These teenagers are calling themselves "Young Niggas," and I have complicated feelings about how adults are responding to this. Let's talk about it.
