Episode notes

i don't think the middle class can imagine not knowing a journalist somewhere along the line or something like that it's so far back from the understanding yeah. i find labor movements so interesting because when you think about people power and you know since 2020 there have been these conversations they've been happening for a long time but now we're beginning to see the huge problem of ineffective protest. We are using up so much of our time and energy getting upset with each other online and then you're doing somethingYeah it does it well it does feel like occupation doesn't it.

Welcome to the Wintering Sessions with Katherine May.

Producer Note: You'll notice a slight change in Katherine's audio in the second half of the podcast. This is just due to a necessary 'source switch', where we had to change where her recording was coming from. Your ears will adjust very quickly but apologies for the ever so slight dip. Thank you!

This week Katherine talks to Emma Dabiri, author of Don’t Touch My Hair and What White People Can Do Next.

What begins as a conversation about Emma’s new-found commitment to appreciating all the seasons - not just summer - becomes something else entirely. Emma is one of our most agile thinkers and fearless speakers, and soon she is talking about everything from race and class to how we should think about the world right now. A thread of belonging runs through it all - how we seek and find it, how complicated our identities have become, and why it matters.
