Thank you to Aisha Burns for our new (Crush That!) White Supremacy jingle!Producer Alba suggested we create a jingle to use when calling out instances of white supremacy on Buffy (comparable to the way in which we use The Patriarchy jingle), and to create the jingle, which debuts in this episode!!, Jenny collaborated with the amazing Aisha Burns who co-wrote, played strings, and sings the vocals! Aisha makes some amazing music, and you can learn more about her here: http://aishaburns.com/
