Transgender advocate and writer Janet Mock joined Andrea Plaid, Heather McGhee, and Joy-Ann Reid on MSNBC’s “Melissa Harris-Perry” for a “Scandal” April 6 “watch party.”
Mock chimed in and discussed Kerry Washington‘s role as “Oliva Pope,” Shonda Rhimes’ work and the representations of black women in media.
