ANDDDDDD, WE'RE BACK!
We're so grateful to kick off part 2 of season 2 with the brilliant and hilarious Sonya Renee Taylor! We have an incredible conversation tracking where in the world is Sonya, how opening up to just listening and being has created space for her ancestors to offer quite an addition to her journey and a deep dig into her take on Intersectional Integrity. We'll leave you with this gem as a teaser:
"This is not just about how, how I relate to myself and how I relate to people who have targeted identities, right? It's not just that, it's how do I relate to life...to the being-ness of all beings? "
Transmuting Tuesday June 28, 2022
We're coming soon with Part 2 of Season 2!
In the meantime, a quick share over here: Diedra and Maureen are going to start a weekly (most of the time) series called Transmuting Tuesdays which will be on our Youtube and Instagram pages. You can expect this series to be a little more impromptu and shorter than the podcast has been.
This first one is in response to the Overturning of Roe. Y

Transmuting After a Tragedy
We want to take a moment to send love, acknowledgment, and presence to you as you process and potentially transmute your experience, understanding, and impact of the racial and political violence of the murders in Buffalo, NY, and Orange County, CA.
After the mass murders sitting so heavy on our hearts and in our spirits, Diedra asks Maureen to have a conversation to help make sense of how whiteness and white people often show up after a tragedy where Black people are killed. In order for us to practice Transmuting white supremacy and patriarchy, we center connection and conversation, and curiosity.
