Ep. 5.4: Pause and Rest
We are taking a quick two-week break.
Ritual
We are weeks from a national election here in the United States. The west coast is experiencing or recovering from wildfires. The world is feeling the impact of multiple pandemics, including the recent covid pandemic and the longstanding pandemic of racism.
Vote. Do what you can. Be creative. And rest.
Conversation
This week, we encourage you to hop on over to the podcast Gastropod. You might check out the episode “Poutry Power: The Fried Chicken Chronicles.”
You might want to also dig a little more into the history of self-care, rooted in activist movements, specifically of people of color and people of other/ additional marginalized identities. Here by Aisha Harris and here by Christine Grimaldi.
We’ll be back soon.
