In this episode of Interrupting Everything, Nikki sits down with her good friend, artist, educator, and poet Def Sound to talk about interrupting isolation and individualism.
It all starts with us and how we interrupt the settler colonial culture of isolation.
Listen to hear about:
- The importance of community, relationships, and collective action in combating isolation and individualism.
- The benefits of organizing a general strike around key demands like universal healthcare, affordable housing, and creative control over personal taxes.
- The need to reclaim and exercise the power of the imagination in order to envision and work towards a more just future.
- The ways in which dominant narratives and systems work to suppress and devalue creative and intellectual pursuits.
Tune in, let's learn together!
Special thanks to Def Sound for providing the theme for Interrupting Everything.
