'The Bold Type' Tackles White Privilege on Tonight's New Episode

Kat and Jane are a little at odds in these new stills from tonight’s all-new The Bold Type.

In “Stride of Pride”, Jane finds a job posting she thinks she’d be perfect for, but her response to the job sparks a difficult conversation with Kat about privilege.

“We’re dealing with privilege,” Katie Stevens shared with EW about the episode tonight.

“It’s important [to cover],” she adds, “people who are white have a lot of privilege and sometimes they’re not aware of that.”

“To have this scene where Jane, even though what she’s saying is just coming out of her because of frustration and she doesn’t really mean it, [it's] a lesson in awareness and being aware of the privilege that you have.”

The Bold Type airs TONIGHT, Tuesday, July 3rd @8PM ET/PT on Freeform.
