Episode 27: Sacrifice, Self, and How One Heals

Recorded on Sunday, 09/12/21, Trek Table Episode #27 dives deep into Star Trek Discovery Season 2, Episode 10, "The Red Angel".  Join host Alison De La Cruz and Co-Hosts Claudia Alick, Maya Chinchilla and Maia Mills-Low as we dive deep into the arcs of Michael Burnham, Space Papi Dr. Hugh Culber, and our dearly departed crew member Ariam in this deep dive looking at sacrifice, self and how one heals. Trek Table Questions ask about pansexuality in the mirror universe, funerals and death rituals in Star Trek and oh, - Is Culber a copy of Himself?

** GRIEVERS **

In a recent Vulture article, American author, doula, women's rights activist and black feminist adrienne maree brown  said. “Speculative fiction is where we get to practice the future. I think that science fiction is a form of organizing, and all organizing is science fiction.” Her new book GRIEVERS is a science fiction story that sounds all too familiar. As a quarantined city slowly empties of life, Dune investigates what caused the plague, and what might end it. She does this by following in the footsteps of her late researcher father. GRIEVERS is available now! Check it out! https://bit.ly/3C5cxbX
