Beyond Incarceration: Oneika Mays
May 10, 2020 07:30 - 1 hour - 139 MBThere’s a strange reference right now about how being in isolation is akin to being locked up. We’re seeing that narrative replicated around the country in the many white-led riots against the stay-at-home rules. Let’s be clear: this quarantine is NOTHING like what people experience in prison. In fact, the outbreaks in prisons around the country reveal that incarcerated people are both more exposed and less able to protect themselves. But beyond the current circumstances, many are que...

Build, Block, Be: Katie Loncke
November 21, 2019 06:37 - 1 hour - 155 MBPerhaps the most frequent question I get asked is, “How do I show up in this moment?” To help us answer that is the amazing Katie Loncke of Buddhist Peace Fellowship, one of the most throw-down, committed activists I know.

013 Rachel Cargle
April 18, 2019 20:11 - 57 minutes - 132 MBRachel Cargle: I've been teaching a lot on the fact that anti-racism work for white people is not a space for self improvement. The point of anti-racism work is to protect black lives, so if everything you do within the anti-racism work is for your benefit, then you're just enhancing white lives. You're not protecting black lives. It's not just a space for you to go to a conference and get a gift bag and take a picture with me and post it on Instagram. None of that translates to black lives...

Real “allyship” looks like going to get our people, paying our privilege forward and listening - really listening - to Black women and following their lea...

March 21, 2019 18:36 - 48 minutes - 66 MBAdrienne: This is where the numbers do matter. I'm like, "I want those three billion people who signed a petition. I want that to actually be real because there's children that I love in this world who rely on us succeeding at something." When we were not trusting each other, it was nearly impossible to move anything. And then once we started to really do the work, drop in, build trust, have real conflict, move through it, know that there are lines we could hold and lines we could ...
