Ep. 105 | The "Radical Belle" Speaks

"5 years ago, I publicly departed from the WWII museum as a member of the Victory Belles. If you knew me at the time- then you knew how much work I did to make sure the Black lives of New Orleans and the African American diaspora were acknowledged and protected. With that sparked a movement that gave other stakeholders a voice to address their many concerns with the state of the museum at the time- and the rest is history. Since then, I’ve made it my life’s work to put the same effort I was giving to that institution and, essentially, align myself with local institutions that DO acknowledge and defend black lives privately AND publicly in our absence. This is a touchy topic for me. So touchy that I still do not fully have the right words to describe how I'm processing that chapter 5 years later. I do my best to be eloquent, but there's some thoughts that I'm still finding the vocabulary for- so I ask you to do your best to receive the info in this reflection with love and empathy. She's doing her best. If you're looking for more insight into how I'm handling the current political climate in conjunction with the tools I've acquired from my experience at the museum, keep your eyes out for the Patreon-exclusive follow-up. xoxo J.Mix" Wanna give your thoughts about this episode?

On this episode, Breeze goes into detail about why she chose to leave, how she filled up her free time, what led her to join social media after three years, and how she maintains a healthy balance between real and virtual life.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
