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.

From Prentis Hemphill, the host and producer of the Finding Our Way podcast comes a new podcast: Becoming the People. Prentis is in conversation with the thinkers, creators, and doers who are exploring some of the most relevant questions of our time: What will it take for us to change as a species? How do we create relationships that lead to collective transformation, and what will it take for us to heal? We hope this podcast helps us uncover the path of how to become the people of our time. In Becoming the People’s inaugural episode, Prentis is joined by their dear friend adrienne maree brown. adrienne interviews Prentis about their upcoming book, What it Takes to Heal: How Transforming Ourselves Can Change the World. These two friends discuss Prentis’ journey of writing this book, the role that transformational characters play in change work, and why we should prioritize healing in this painful moment of history.

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.

In a final, mistakenly overlooked Witch episode, gina Breedlove and adrienne get into Grace’s language, singing the Delfonics, kneeling before different altars, connecting to the throughline of love and peace, moving to the Bay, missionary lineage, touching cemetery dirt, a sense of connection to a patron saint in Ireland, using sound to express grief, holy roller Baptism, the holy ghost taking over for the first time, speaking in tongues, something about our generation partnering across time/space realities, the practice of being a channel, the importance of grief-letting, care-taking as grief avoidance and spiritual hygiene. gina Breedlove (she/they/grace) is a sound healer, grief doula, vocalist, composer, and oracle for Grace, born in Brooklyn, N.Y. She began her walk with spirit and sound at age 9, singing in her family's missionary baptist church near the Apalachicola river, in florida. gina has toured the world as featured vocalist with Harry Belafonte, Craig Harris, Sekou Sundiata, and Ronny Jordan, to name a few. She created the role of "Sarabi", for the Broadway production of, "The Lion King", has worked on two Spike Lee joints, as an actor and sound healer, recorded two records, "Open Heart", & "Language of Light", and has just completed writing a book for Sounds True publishing, to be released in November, 2023, titled: The Vibration of Grace: Sound Healing Rituals for Liberation. gina currently tours with her music and sound healing offerings, sharing the medicine of Grace in every city she visits. She comes from red dirt, brackish water, moss covered trees, and a lineage of women who lay hands, and source the limitless power of sound as a healing modality. --- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT OUR SHOW! - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow --- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TRANSCRIPT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ --- Music by Tunde Olaniran, Mother Cyborg , The Bengsons andd AUTUMN --- HTS ESSENTIALS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT Our Show on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PEEP us on IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

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. --- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT OUR SHOW! - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow --- Music by Tunde Olaniran, Mother Cyborg and The Bengsons --- HTS ESSENTIALS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT Our Show on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PEEP us on IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
