How to Survive the End of the World
Join Autumn Brown and adrienne maree brown, two sisters who share many identities, as writers, activists, facilitators, and inheritors of multiracial diasporic lineages, as well as a particular interest in the question of survival, as we embark on a podcast that delves into the practices we need as a community, to move through endings and to come out whole on the other side, whatever that might be.
visit us @ endoftheworldshow.org
Beloved survivor, if you are feeling depleted, defeated, lost and confused, we here at the show see you and feel you and invite you to apply to sister Autumn's fall program, The Fortification Cohort.
It'san8-week process of collective and self study, where we learn how to practice fugitivity, and in so doing, map a new internal landscape defined by agency and courage, instead of dissociation and collapse.
Fugitivity is more than escape. It is making ourselves powerful, both individually and collectively. It is remembering a much longer timeline for our freedom fight, and holding connection to that reality no matter the conditions around us. It is a process of conditioning the soul for the righteous fight.
This program is for you if:
- You want to practice freedom in your own life, but you are not sure how.
- You have an existing practice for self-regulation and have already done some of your own healing work.
- You have a working understanding of trauma, but you find the victim/oppressor dichotomy to be limiting and overly simplistic. You want an updated framework for understanding conditions as they are.
- You want to make change in the world, but struggle to turn your values and wisdom into action.
- You desire to work in multiracial and multi-class formation using black feminist principles, without throwing anyone away.
Head to Autumn's website for more information about the cohort: www.iambrown.org/fortification
Here is the direct link to the application: https://forms.gle/Zu4Cw8Ee7d1XCBJV8
The sisters wrap up their Art as Solidarity season with some hopeful reflections. They discuss their creative processes and the season's highlights including the centrality of art in resistance movements in Minneapolis, partnerships and collaborations among artists and the role of art in processing grief, trauma, and hope. And then they plant seeds for next season.

The sisters are elated to dialogue with two revolutionary artists, Charlotte Brathwaite and Malick Welli. They share their love for art and one another and how their practices intersect with community, history, and transformation.
Charlotte is an award-winning artist, creative director, and theater director whose work moves across performance, spectacle, and immersive experience. Working across theater, opera, film, dance, installation, and site-specific performance, Brathwaite creates cross-disciplinary projects that bring narrative, sound, movement, and space into close relationship. Her genre-defying practice centers the histories, realities, and imagined futures of communities that have been historically excluded, engaging questions of power, race, social justice, and collective memory.
Malick is a Senegalese visual artist who lives and works in Dakar. His work lies at the intersection of fine art, photography and installation. His work has recently been shown at the National Museum of World Cultures in Leiden, Netherlands, and at the Chanel Fashion house’s 19M gallery. Welli is interested in religion, spirituality, power dynamics and how they shape visual culture. His work has been exhibited at 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair (USA); Art X Lagos ( Nigeria) EXPO CHGO (USA); Cairo Biennial (Egypt); AKAA (Also Known As Africa, France), among others. His work is included in the permanent collection of the Chazen Museum of Art (USA).

The sisters are ecstatic for this long overdue convo with Báyò Akómoláfé, Chief Curator of The Emergence Network, a speaker, author, fugitive neo-materialist com-post-activist public intellectual and Yoruba poet.
Bayo's new book is Selah, about which adrienne writes, "Báyò Akómoláfé is a philosopher who is pushing us to think outside of every narrative we take for granted. In this text, he guides us to reconsider how we relate to the world—and to internalize the fact that earth and all of nature are alive, relating to us. Selah is an ancient Indigenous orientation, poured through Báyò’s trickster poetry to make for a fresh agitation.”

Autumn is hosting another show and you're gonna love it!
In the Season Four premiere of the Climate Changed podcast, Autumn talks with Tory Stephens, a storyteller, cultural worker, and climate justice advocate.
They explore the transformative power of climate fiction and its role in helping us envision the future. Tory discusses his groundbreaking work at Grist, where he founded Imagine 2200, an initiative that asks a simple yet radical question: What if we wrote stories not about what we fear but about what we hope to create? The discussion dives into how imagination connects with responsibility, how storytelling serves as a profound form of spiritual leadership, and why envisioning a new reality is essential for climate justice.
TRANSCRIPT
Resources & Concepts Mentioned:
Thrutopia: Coined by philosopher Rupert Read and popularized by author Manda Scott through the Thrutopia Masterclass, a Thrutopian narrative threads the needle between utopia and dystopia. It focuses on writing grounded, plausible, and inspiring route maps that show exactly how we navigate through our current struggles to reach a future we’d be proud to leave behind.
Bloodchild by Octavia E. Butler: Autumn quotes the legendary science fiction author—who was the first African American woman to reach mainstream success in the genre—and her collection Bloodchild and Other Stories, reflecting on how sci-fi stimulates necessary imagination and creativity.
North Woods by Daniel Mason: A novel mentioned by Nicole Diroff from The BTS Center’s Summer Fiction Book Club, highlighting how fiction can make the natural landscape the main character.
Humans of New York: The iconic photoblog that Tory credits with changing his perspective early in his career, teaching him the unparalleled power of human-centric storytelling over dry statistics.
Visionary Fiction: A framework of world-building and storytelling that Autumn Brown and her sister use in their writing retreats, which actively wrestles with the sacred and reclaims spiritual practices.
Dream Seeds: A term favored by Grist and Imagine 2200 to describe stories that plant concrete, hopeful visions of how society could be organized completely differently.
Eve Mosher & Creating Your Story of Tomorrow: An adult education facilitator guide and video created by renowned environmental artist Eve Mosher, available on the BTS Center’s Leadership Commons.
“Seven Sisters” by Susan Kaye Quinn; 3rd place winner of the 2022 Imagine 2200 contest.
The Case of the Missing Lake by Colby Devitt; published in November 2025 by Imagine 2200.

The sisters are ecstatic to welcome OBIE Award-winning artist Jenn Kidwell and ASL artist Brandon Kazen-Maddox to discuss “we come to collect: a flirtation, with capitalism,” a play which invites "you to roll in the pigsty of American consumerism." The New Yorker calls Kidwell "a comic genius in a leopard-print bra and puffball coat."
In this episode, we learn how the play emerged, where its accretion of collaborators came from, mirror as metaphor and set-piece, the artistry of ASL and why everyone should learn it and how this striking work of art asks audiences to literally give Jenn money!

The sisters are THRILLED to build with their dear friend, Morgan Bassichis. Morgan is a comedian, musician, Anti-Zionist activist and writer who has been called “a tall child or, well, a big bird” by The Nation and “fiercely hilarious” by The New Yorker. Their show, Can I Be Frank? just won an Obie!
The trio discuss finding the funny in the sad and tragic, the life of a Jewish artist fighting for Palestine, being brought up in the cult of 'it's complicated', the clarity of doing what we can to disentangle Judaism and Zionism, tapping into compassion, how haters can't make good art, shared power vs. siloed power and the precipice of something big happening in OUR lifetime.

Some of you may have gotten the wrong audio when we posted this episode on 11/21/25. SORRY!
Today we're thrilled to feature the recent interview featuring Autumn from Next Economy Now with Ryan Honeyman.
In this episode, she shares her journey of moving from cooperative leadership at AORTA into a new phase of life focused on music, writing, and martial arts, as well as her forthcoming book on fugitivity. At the heart of her work is the question: how do we practice freedom in an unfree world?
Together, Autumn and Ryan dive into what has shifted since 2020—exploring the backlash to racial justice movements, the difference between symbolic versus relational change, and why so much of today’s organizing can feel performative when not grounded in real relationship. Autumn emphasizes the need to move beyond fear, resentment, or judgment and instead organize from love, courage, and grief—energies that replenish rather than deplete. The conversation touches on coalition building across difference, how to choose when to hold firm and when to meet people where they are, and what it means to reach for governing power while staying rooted in liberatory practice.
Toward the end, the two reflect on martial arts as a surprising but powerful practice for those committed to nonviolence. Autumn shares how Aikido has reshaped her relationship to conflict and power, while Ryan reflects on his own entry into boxing as a healthy channel for rage and resilience. Though a smaller part of the discussion, it underscores a central theme: the practices that help us stay grounded, embodied, and awake are essential to sustaining movements and our lives within them.

Earlier this fall adrienne finally got to connect with mother, musician, therapist, broadcaster, facilitator, researcher and educator, Leah Manaema Aveneon IG Live. This episode is the audio from that live session. Consider this a bonus episode from our Solidarity is Love season.
Leah’s bloodlines have been shaped by the Pacific Ocean and the islands of Tuvalu through her father’s line and the landscapes of Ireland through her mother’s. Leah was raised on unceded Kulin Nations lands along the coastline of Waddawurrung / Wathaurong Country (South coast of Victoria). Leah’s work focuses on nurturing the strengths of culture, ancestry, land, body, community and deeply shared values to transform harmful power dynamics in bodies, relationships and systems.

Hi Beloveds. We’re back with an episode to share from another show we love. Radio Workshop trains youth across Africa to make radio and podcasts. They provide the tools and teach the skills. Youth bring their creativity, local knowledge, and passion for tackling the issues that matter to them and their communities.
On today’s show...Rihanna was just 19 years old when she was arrested for being trans in Uganda. It was 2014. She spent 9 months in prison - an ordeal that tore a rift between her and her God-fearing mother. In this episode, we hear how her arrest radically changed the course of their lives - and how Rihanna’s mom unexpectedly became a staunch ally. This is the second in our two-part series on LGBTQ rights in Uganda, as the Anti-Homosexuality Act of 2023 turns a year old. This is A Mother’s Letter from Radio Workshop
The sisters are deep in book writing mode which you'll hear more about in the coming weeks. Meantime, they wanted to share their responses to some questions from our Pateron community. Typically, these episodes are for Patreon supporters only but we're making an exception this time!

The sisters are ecstatic to build with writer, activist and historian Rebecca Solnit. Her latest book is No Straight Road Takes You There: Essays on Uneven Terrain.
They talk about how solidarity is always across difference and about the things we have in common mattering more then the things we don't, how liberation is contagious, prioritizing where to pour our energy, a politics of inseparability vs. the politics of division, our default response of turning towards each other in a crisis, how it turns out that even when your world has fallen apart you can light up with joy because you found the meaning and connection that's been missing in everyday life, a world with an abundance of time and security rather than abundance as neoliberal rhetoric, how there's no shortage of anything, just distribution problems, hunkering down for the likely reality of climate collapse and how we can't save everything but that doesn't mean we can't save anything.

As we near the end of our season of solidarity, the sisters are thrilled to go deep with Chinyere Tutashinda, co-founder of the BlackOUT Collective and current Executive Director at the Center for Third World Organizing Hub, and Rico Sisney, Director of Action Strategies and Programs at the Center for Third World Organizing Hub.
They discuss reform vs. revolution, taking America for granted, the dysfunction of the USA, direct actions that model concepts beyond nation-states, choosing right actions in troubling times, it's not either/or, being prefigurative in our actions, how much of a population needs to actively participate for there to be movement, regime change vs. systems change, how power is fundamentally held, keeping vulnerable communities safe while participating, risk tolerance, who's gonna water your plants if you're in jail, what makes a tactic legitimate, the biggest block to solidarity and the illusion of a clear, direct path to freedom.

The sisters convene to consider the realizion that aging means being in grief all the time but continuing, nonetheless, writing in the bath, taking responsibility for our inner state, the free Chani Breakthrough Course, the dream job of being a backup vocalist, political youth theatre, awesome kids learning from awesome parents, conflicted perpetrators and the sisters' personal journey on that pathway, 9/11, what it means to be an American, the disorientation and nausea of "What the hell? I'm the hell!", leaving cults when you realized it all made sense till it didn't, how Robin Hood triggered anti-authoritarianism, the rich history of student organizing at Columbia, the normalization of being at the top of a military superpower, the big question of 'is anything real?', having a different kind of conversation with your parents, sitting with the ocean, the cult of purity, fugitive resistance as a way of resisting the ideology of the state, figuring out how to not shop on Amazon, moving from cult to cult, needing a new belief system, and how solidarity is the only salve once you recognize that you're in the perpetrator role.

You know we love Alexis Pauline Gumbs here at HTS, so we're so excited to present her episode from a show we recently discovered. It's called Mother is a Question.
MIAQ is an invitation into the depths of mothers’ hearts, minds and stories. Join best friends Julia Metzger-Traber and Tasha Haverty as they crack open definitions of motherhood and listen for the unspeakable through playful, intimate conversations with mothers from all walks of life. Mother is a Question is a portal into the kaleidoscopically different and yet universal experiences of what it means to mother.
Not another chat show sharing practical advice from the daily frontlines of mothering, but a space to live in the questions, and enlist the existential and poetic wisdom of those who mother. What would the world be if we took mothers’ questions and their wisdom seriously?
Tasha and Julia, both mothers of babies and small children– sleepless and overwhelmed, renewed and disjointed, transformed and confused – are seeking wisdom from all directions. But rather than expecting any final answers, each question opens up many more. The hosts’ own friendship dynamic–with their sometimes contrasting fascinations and struggles in motherhood–guides each episode, fed by a flow of listeners’ reflections and stories shared on the show’s “heartline,” a voicemail box, exploring that episode’s central question.
On this episode they ask...
What if humans could evolve into our most nurturing and creative selves? What if society were organized around care instead of extraction and destruction? What if we followed the leadership of those who mother? Well, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, self-proclaimed Black Feminist Love Evangelist, thinks we have to. It's urgent. And she calls this possibility Motherful. This episode, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, a poet and one of Julia's philosopher heroes, will be our guide to A Motherful World.
Hala Alyan and adrienne meditate with grief, revisit endurance, share poems and thoughts on tides turning and elections and what is real and who is urgent.
hala’s newsletter moonseed is now on substack @ halaalyan.substack.com

We're taking some time off this summer but while we're away we're excited to share some shows in our ecology. Today we're playing part of a docuseries from the folks at Respair Media.
Help This Garden Grow is a new podcast docuseries telling the story of Hazel Johnson, a visionary of the Environmental Justice movement and a resident of the Altgeld Gardens community on the far South Side of Chicago. Hazel is the founder of People for Community Recovery, a 40 year-old organization that fights to address the toxic industrial pollution that has been killing the members of her community. Over the course of the multigenerational multipart documentary, hosts Damon Williams and Daniel Kisslinger talk with organizers, policy- makers, historians, and community members about how PCR emerged and led, the legacy of Ms. Johnson's work, and how this marginalized Chicago pocket built the lineage of today's vibrant, impactful, and necessary modern environmental justice movement.
Help This Garden Grow is presented by Respair Production & Media, Elevate, and People for Community Recovery.

For their grand reunion, adrienne and Autumn discuss picking weeds (but not condemning their existence as a species), periods as Cave Goddess, what would a culture of ritual around friend-death look like, the month of April astrologically being a shit show, our stories of suffering, getting EGGED, silly humans, humor as a firm mattress, sabbatical as reset, the actual experience of the mystery taking over, letting the body make a beautiful thing, finding divinity outside movement work, injury as teacher and the globalization of disorientation.

It's Witch School graduation day with Alexis Pauline Gumbs and Sangodare!
They discuss priestly practice, dropping down and back and into your center, movements of people around the world stepping up, conjuring love, the lineage of love, worshipping our partners, reading sacred texts, forgiveness your Lyft and/or Uber driver, amplifying the best of us, reclaiming love-craft and love as the essential nature of all that supports life.
TRANSCRIPT
Ṣangodare (Julia Roxanne Wallace) is a sweet space for transformation. Ṣangodare comes from a thick legacy of Black Baptist preachers and church leaders and currently activates Black Feminist sermonics at a weekly Sunday Service held by Mobile Homecoming Trust. As co-founder of Black Feminist Film School (2012), Visiting Artist in Film at Lawrence University (2017-18) and Artist in Residence at UMN-Twin Cities in the Art Department (2017-19), Ṣangodare brings a creative, evolutionary and love filled approach to filmmaking, composing, interactive design and preaching. As co-founder of Black Feminist Film School (founded along with Sista Docta Alexis Pauline Gumbs, APG) Ṣangodare created Ritual Screening, a film viewing technology that is interactive and grounded in Black Feminist practice and our non-linear reality. As co-founder of Mobile Homecoming with APG, a national experiential archive project, Ṣangodare amplifies generations of Black LGBTQ brilliance. Ṣangodare's most recent exhibition called Inherit Light: An Evolutionary Practice of Love Consciousness (including a month long gallery exhibition at UMN in 2018) engages Black southern preaching and singing legacies, sound, altars, sacred implements through sculpture and installations, film and nature. It also features small and large-scale ruminations on round sculpture and buildings - domes. The dome in Inherit Light is the multi-sensory and interactive sacred space where Ṣangodare's invocations and sermons are ignited through the site-specific exhibits of Inherit Light.
Alexis Pauline Gumbs is a Queer Black Troublemaker and Black Feminist Love Evangelist and an aspirational cousin to all sentient beings. Her work in this lifetime is to facilitate infinite, unstoppable ancestral love in practice. Her poetic work in response to the needs of her cherished communities has held space for multitudes in mourning and movement. Alexis’s co-edited volume Revolutionary Mothering: Love on the Front Lines (PM Press, 2016) has shifted the conversation on mothering, parenting and queer transformation. Alexis has transformed the scope of intellectual, creative and oracular writing with her triptych of experimental works published by Duke University Press (Spill: Scenes of Black Feminist Fugitivity in 2016, M Archive: After the End of the World in 2018 and Dub: Finding Ceremony, 2020.) Unlike most academic texts, Alexis’s work has inspired artists across form to create dance works, installation work, paintings, processionals, divination practices, operas, quilts and more.

We are so honored to share an episode with you from one of our favorite podcasts, FOR THE WILD.
“The fugitive is the figure of the Anthropocene, a political invitation to unlearn ‘mastery,’ to fall to the Earth, to learn how to commune with soil… In a sense, the fugitive answers the question that is hidden within the words of my Elders, when they say: ‘in order to find your way, you must become lost.’”
Returning guest Bayo Akomolafe guides listeners on a journey to lose oneself and leave behind the ties that bind us to world views that do not serve humanity’s wholeness. Touching on the historical roots of fugitivity from the politics of the slave ship and beyond, Bayo challenges us to lean into the “political un-project” that is fugitivity, blurring societally-imposed binaries, in order to better understand the human territory and to make more-than-human sanctuary through post activism. If justice is an action and not a static state, how can we embody it?
Twisting and turning through the contours of human consciousness and understanding, Bayo and Ayana dive into meaningful and existential questions. How do we cope with the complexity of being “imbricated with the things we are trying to escape from?” What is the shape and form of accountability? How do we commune with the unknowable? Rooted in trickster philosophy and abundant spirituality, Bayo encourages mindful and playful questions. These are times in which we must reframe our understanding of justice, of history, and of humanity. At the heart of the complex questioning in the episode, lies the vital question of our time – what does it mean to be a human in times such as this?
Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.), rooted with the Yoruba people in a more-than-human world, is the father to Alethea and Kyah, the grateful life partner to Ije, son and brother. A widely celebrated international speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, public intellectual, essayist, and author of two books, These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity’s Search for Home (North Atlantic Books) and We Will Tell Our Own Story: The Lions of Africa Speak, Bayo Akomolafe is the Visionary Founder of The Emergence Network and host of the online postactivist course, ‘We Will Dance with Mountains’.
The music featured in this episode is “Humm” and “Wild Seed” by Dzidzor and “Spiritual” by Lady Moon and the Eclipse.

On September 29th, 2022 The Brown Sisters joined together to deliver a live dual keynote as a part of the YWCA Madison's Racial Justice Summit. Speaking on themes of emergence, surrender, and healing, adrienne and Autumn explore how sisterhood, healing practices, and song support opening to the next world.
Special thanks to the YWCA Madison Summit Team:
Erin Farrar, Development and Volunteer Coordinator
Faith Stevenson, Race and Gender Equity Practitioner

What if a vibrant, multiracial movement for justice is within our grasp? What practices make it possible for us to not only build this movement, but to be its courageous membership?
In this special event, Autumn Brown will guide participants through a Black Feminist approach to healing the wound of disconnection inherent in white supremacy and racial capitalism. In this participatory keynote, we will map the practices that will build a vibrant, multiracial movement, and remedy the fault lines that we are so often re-inscribing within our movements from the very culture of dominance and control we want to dismantle.

bell hooks offers us the wisdom that “love is an act of will, both an intention and an action.” in this episode the brown sisters explore hooks’ critique of the idea that we “fall in love”, the difference between falling in love and choosing to love, and how distinguishing between the two helps us to love in a way that protects and liberates the heart.

with bell hooks' guidance, adrienne and Autumn trace the conditions that leave us hopeless and despairing at work, and look at what becomes possible when we bring love to our labor, regardless of the conditions. The sisters describe their own journeys into doing what they love to do, and discuss the importance of giving ourselves permission to be in love with our work.

won't you celebrate with me - by Lucille Clifton
---
won't you celebrate with me
what i have shaped into
a kind of life? i had no model.
born in babylon
both nonwhite and woman
what did i see to be except myself?
i made it up
here on this bridge between
starshine and clay,
my one hand holding tight
my other hand; come celebrate
with me that everyday
something has tried to kill me
and has failed.

We're so excited to share an episode from a new podcast we think you'll love called Freedom Dreams. It's a show that explores historical examples of experiments in liberation, and dreams about how to expand the work already being done to build the abolitionist world we want to see beyond police and incarceration.
SUBSCRIBE TO FREEDOM DREAMS WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS.
In this episode, the Freedom Dreamers head over to The James and Grace Lee Boggs School in Detroit to learn about place-based education and its relationship to community action. Many think of school as a place where you get to know yourself…but what if it was also how you got to know your community? Ethan Lowenstein teaches us the basics of place-based education and how it knocks down the wall between school and community to better prepare students to live empowered, active lives. Then Julia Putnam, Amanda Rosman, and Marisol Teachworth (administrators at the Boggs School) tell us how language arts, science, and social studies classes can bring students into their communities to practice problem solving and engaging with the people around them. Our guests teach us about visionary organizing and how it focuses not just on what systems we’re tearing down but also what we’re building up. Listen in for these alternative models of academic success!

Before our new season kicks off next month, we're thrilled to bring you this essential episode from The Emergent Strategy Podcast. To support ESII, click here.
Mother, organizer, theologian and writer, Autumn Brown, joins host Mia Herndon on this week's episode of The Emergent Strategy Podcast. In a lively discussion, Autumn talks about parenting during the pandemic, the challenges and positives of relating through technology, and discovers (excitedly) the Hide Self View feature.
Society wants children who will become adults who believe their productivity is more important than their feelings. Me socializing my children to value their feelings at least as much as their productivity, if not more, isn't just about 'I want you to love yourself and be authentic!', it's also about'I want you to know when something is unfair. I want you to know when harm is happening.' If you're socialized to downplay your feelings, it's harder to know when harm is happening.That's part of what emergent strategy is inviting, there are things happening at these micro scales, like the scale of a relationship between a mother and a daughter. There are these lessons that we can extrapolate and scale for movements as a whole. But if we don't understand that the fundamental unit of change is relationship, then it will be hard to scale.- Autumn Brown on how emergent strategy (transformative justice as resilience) shows up in parenting.

In this episode, the Brown Sisters had the honor of interviewing two siblings who are giants of the social justice movement: Makani Themba and Robin D.G. Kelley. Makani is an organizer and movement strategist, who recently stepped into co-leadership of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation. Robin is a historian, scholar of African American history and struggle, and author of Race Rebels, among many other titles. We enter their sweet story of solidarity and sibling love, which they are telling for the very first time.

Autumn and adrienne continue their deep dive on blackness and mixed race identity, begun in Season 4 with the episode “Tip of the Iceberg”. In this episode the Brown sisters interview author and scholar-activist Yaba Blay, who created a gorgeous photo book project called One Drop, exploring the way historical definitions of blackness shape contemporary racial identity and experience.

Autumn was recently invited to take part in a really fun, mind-bending panel called Organizers in Space. The event was co-hosted by Annie Weinberg, electoral organizer, coach, and strategist for progressive campaigns along with The Movement School and the Forge.
You can watch the entire event HERE.
Building a more just, reflective democracy and landing a spacecraft on another planet are both epic, deeply collective human endeavors - and practitioners of both crafts faced huge tests in 2020 and 2021. In the midst of a global pandemic, a reckoning around white supremacist violence, racialized capitalism, and what it means to have a truly reflective democracy - what can movement organizing and space exploration teach each other right now? With the recent successful Mars Perseverance Mission Landing as a jumping-off point, and pulling from some of the ideas of Octavia Butler, the visionary writer and now the namesake of the official landing site on Mars, we discuss what these crafts have in common.”
We talk about predictable emergencies, radical imagination, and contingency planning; about creating structures that unearth collective genius, to do things that may have not been done before; about scalability, effective metric-setting, and competing priorities; about holding on to a sense of awe, in the face of challenges and unknowabilities, and about what it means to, as JPL’s slogan says, “Dare Mighty Things”.“
Anoa Changa moderates this amazing conversation featuring Cj Giovingo and Autumn Brown. CJ is an organizer-turned-rocket-scientist and Jet Propulsion Lab systems engineer, who served as NASA/JPL’s Entry, Descent and Landing Activity Lead for Perseverance.

The Brown sisters are back with a new season and this one will include some fundamental practices that help us survive and may help our listeners.adrienne spent the last decade on a learning journey with generative somatics, learning about healing trauma in and through the body. One key practice in somatics is centering, having a center within ourselves to which we can continuously return and from which we can embody and shape the world and relationships and healing we need.

Note: When they recorded this episode, the sisters thought they were finishing early, not realizing that they were ahead of recording schedule and had the year done. So without any additional labor after recording this episode, they made it thru the full season. In case you were worried, they're good. And love you. XO

note: adrienne critiques the term 'people of color' in this episode, and to be clear, she is speaking not of the phrase in its original purpose of solidarity, but of the collapsing use of the phrase to erase the nuance of distinct cultural experiences.

Butler. We talked with her about turning earthseed into song, lessons from her mother, and the necessity of creative practice. In this episode Toshi makes it clear and plain why voting is a necessary part of our political participation!

As our summer break continues, we're so excited to feature an episode from our friends at the Fortification podcast.
Future: Spiritual and political mandates for our future
The conversation began with these questions: Where is this present moment taking us? What can we radically imagine for our future survival knowing what we know now? In times of crisis, seemingly impossible ideas become imaginable. What does or might the economy of healthcare, the collective practice of care, look like on the other side of this? What is your best and worst case scenario? What is the spiritual mandate of this new time? What is our charge moving forward?
Learn more about the guests. Find a transcript of the conversation.
This episode is part of a series in collaboration with Cara Page, Susan Raffo and Anjali Taneja. Learn more about their work at Healing Histories;Disrupting the Medical Industrial Complex. Editing by Wazi Maret www.wazimaret.com, transcription support by Kolenge Fonge and music by Abhimanyu Janamanchi.

2020 is an Emperor Year, a 4 year, so we thought it would be particularly helpful to uplift episode 7: The Emperor, from Tarot for the End of Times, hosted by Sarah Cargill, to give us some sense of what we're facing and what we are feeling.
SUBSCRIBE to Tarot for the End of Times, wherever you listen to pods.
The Emperor's sacred fire has the capacity to assist in performing great acts of human compassion and nurturance, as well as the power to destroy all that it touches. This episode teaches us about walking this razor's edge.

We live in a fundamentally violent society. We have the human right to defend and protect ourselves, but for many of us the means of doing so seem inaccessible. How do we protect and secure our communities as conditions deteriorate? Autumn speaks to security and firearms expert Rashid McCall of the firm Opposition Research, for insight into the challenges and opportunities facing oppressed people who want to practice self-defense. This episode is dedicated to George Floyd, may he rest in power.

We survive by building the new world in the shell of the old, and our new world will need a health care system. How do we transition from a health care system rooted in extraction and profit, to a health care system rooted in justice? We turn to family physician Anjali Taneja, Executive Director of Casa De Salud, a clinic on the forefront of providing justice-driven, accessible health care in Albuquerque, for wisdom and vision in the midst of the pandemic.

Now more than ever we are relying on the internet to satisfy our basic needs and desires. This begs the question, what are apocalypse survival skills for the internet? How do we use the internet as a tool for survival? How do we maintain safety for our communities and our movements for social change when so much of that work must now happen digitally? And what exactly is the internet, anyway? For answers, we turn to digital security expert and organizer for change, Bex Hong Hurwitz of Tiny Gigantic.

We also talk about extractive versus visionary responses to apocalypse, and the transformative potential of thinking and acting collectively inside of chaos. So and Pinar created a guide highlighting important concepts from this and the previous episode, so feel free to open it and follow along as you listen.

What behaviors and choices make the difference between life and death in a disaster? What are the skills that will matter most in a crisis, and how do we learn them? Autumn interviews the brilliant founders of Queer Nature, who lead workshops and immersions teaching survival skills and natural crafts. In the first of two conversations, Queer Nature drops wisdom on how the mind and body respond to crisis, how non-human systems can be our allies, and what trauma has to do with our survival.

During this time of economic collapse, many of us are wondering how we will create and maintain homes, if and when we can’t afford to rent or buy. One answer is to take over vacant homes and buildings, an activity commonly known as squatting. In this episode, Autumn interviews Vikki Law, a prison abolitionist and squatters’ rights activist. Vikki takes us deep inside the story of how vacant buildings in New York City that started out as squats in the 70s and 80s, became permanent homes for their residents.

Beloved Survivors, as we work away on our upcoming survival mini-series, we have another special guest treat to share. You might know Kumail and Emily from their collaboration on the 2017 film, The Big Sick. Now they have a super relevant new podcast not about the Coronavirus, but rather about the do’s and don’ts of staying inside during this extremely bizarre situation we find ourselves in.
Emily V. Gordon and Kumail Nanjiani are both writers who work from home. Emily was a therapist and currently is a chronically sick person (see: The Big Sick) who often has to quarantine herself, and Kumail is her main caretaker.
The podcast features movie, TV, and video game recommendations along with advice from these long time experts working from home and staying indoors. They also call their friends and family to check in and offer tips on how everyone is keeping their heads on straight while socially isolating.
All proceeds from the podcast go to charities for people hardest hit by the virus.
To listen to the show, just search for Staying In with Emily and Kumail in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen.
We hope you find some comfort here.

North Carolina Poet Laureate Jaki Shelton Green drops blessings like ripe mango into our laps. Walls breathe a heavy sigh of relief as she shreds the puny narratives we have about who we are and our power to reanimate and reclaim our medicine... our magic. She calls forth specters who resemble our own shadows and reminds us that we can, that we have no choice but to reknit ourselves back together with the medicine that never left us. It sits at the back of our throats waiting for release. It burns. It illuminates.
She says...
“Medicine is dark and thick like blood”
She asks...
“Where does your creative medicine intertwine with your work?”
She ponders...
“How do you court your muse?”
She chides...
“An anorexic muse is a dying muse”
She proclaims...
“Medicine informs the muse, the muse informs the medicine. It is a sacred symbiotic relationship”
Thank you Mama Jaki. I feel like I left my body several times during our conversation. Thank you for spoon feeding me back myself when I was 5 years old, wise and believed in my own magic..
And so it is on the dark side of the moon.

We are Earthseed. We are flesh—self aware, questing, problem-solving flesh. We are that aspect of Earthlife best able to shape God knowingly. We are Earthlife maturing, Earthlife preparing to fall away from the parent world. We are Earthlife preparing to take root in new ground, Earthlife fulfilling its purpose, its promise, its Destiny. - Octavia Butler, Earthseed verses

"To survive, let the past teach you. Past customs, struggles, leaders and thinkers. Let these help you. Let them inspire you, warn you, give you strength. But beware, God is change. Past is past. What was cannot come again. To survive, know the past, let it touch you, then let the past go." - Octavia Butler, Earthseed

We want you to know more about who we are. We thought one way to do that is to open a window on to our creative practices of writing fiction, which leads into a conversation about channeling our ancestors.
We believe we're in an imagination battle right now and that we're living in a world, and in power dynamics, someone else created. So, it's our responsibility to counter-imagine what we actually want and need to create futures that are viable for more and more of us. And some of the work of creating those futures is writing fiction.
