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.

Justice at the Detroit Podcast Festival
This is a Detroit love affair of an episode. For How To Survive's first appearance at the Detroit Podcast Festival, we invited two Detroit based warriors for justice - 313 Liberation Zone's PG Watkins (ultimate_paygee) and Detroit Justice Center's Amanda Alexander (@A_S_Alexander). We discuss visions, abolition, and the unique ground that Detroit is for practicing our beliefs.

An earlier version this episode contained some misaligned audio. Sorry about that!

Guest Podcast: Tomi Adeyemi Crafts Fantastic Worlds with Words
Before we come back with a full fall slate of episodes, we want to share this episode of Your Attention Please from Hulu and IHeartRadio.
In 2019, Tomi Adeyemi followed up her best-selling debut novel, Children of Blood and Bone, with another installment in the Legacy of Orïsha series, Children of Virtue and Vengeance. Readers have fallen in love with Adeyemi's stories, which are magical and transporting but also so resonant in today's world. In this episode, Kimberly chats with Tomi about believing your dreams are possible, having the right people on your team, and bad spinoffs. And, naturally, Tomi has all the best metaphors for life.

Queer Astrological Technologies, Live from the 2020 AMC!
adrienne and Autumn are joined once again by the incomparable queer astrologer, Chani Nicholas (@chaninicholas), author of You Were Born For This, in the opening plenary of the 2020 Allied Media Conference.
