In a world looking for sex-positive, feminism-forward entertainment, we couldn't help but wonder: was Sex in the City one giant step for women, or a giant leap back for womankind? To help us answer that question (spoiler: it's the second one), we're joined by Tsebiyah Mishael Derry, a poet, actor, singer, and New York native with more than a little to say about this show's rocky record on racism, homophobia, toxic heteronormativity, and New York real estate.
