What's Happening, WoCos? In this episode of the podcast, Crystal and Sariah cover a host of topics ranging from navigating through COVID-19 to Big Gretch. Follow us as we archive the changes that are emerging during this time. Episode 7 follows, the local and national response to the crisis of COVID-19, offers a loving critique of “Big Gretch,” and discusses the danger of re-open protests, calls out Tik Tok’s algorithmic oppression, and Black Media (mis)representations. This episode also includes a new section titled Research and Report Back or “R & R,” where we will dedicate a few months to researching various projects of survival. Sariah’s focus for these next few months will be the experiences of farming while black, and Crystal’s topic loosely can be described as collective power building that is forming on the margin of dominant institutions. We’re excited to share this with you and you can catch more info about it on our Woco social media! We conclude not only with our love letters to people, projects, and things that have been offering us reprieve, but also our future visions for this platform.
Note: As many of you may know, the murder of the Ahmaud Arbery happened recently. Sariah and I have not had the emotional space to process this fully yet. Due to the frequency of white supremacist violence. We don’t know what to offer to folx who are grieving. We enourage folks to check in with friends and loved ones and build community around you as we move through this time.
