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.

Future Economics Part 2: The Solidarity Economy
Back in March 2018, adrienne and Autumn recorded Future Economics Part 1: The Money Talk, an intimate conversation about class, wealth, and debt. They knew they wanted to return with a conversation about the Solidarity Economy. Recently autumn was interviewed by the Next Economy Now podcast, where she discussed the solidarity economy, worker cooperatives, and why Americans struggle so much with cooperation. We are cross posting that episode here as a continuation of our future economics series.

What Time It Is, with Movement Generation
The sisters have wanted to interview Movement Generation since they conceived of this podcast. Recently, adrienne got to hear Michelle Mascarenhas-Swan give a talk on how we got to this moment of climate apocalypse. generative somatics gave us permission to share the talk, so adrienne sat down with Michelle for a quick corner-of-a-busy-room interview to frame the talk up. The worldview here will be a reference for all future podcasts. Listen up!
