Les mer Intersectionality in the American South

Intersectionality in the American South is a podcast for anyone whose ready to take a long, hard, look at the ways oppressive systems land in people’s lives. We bring together academics and everyday people in conversations about the intersectional forms of oppression that marginalized people experience. You will hear thought provoking conversations about hard topics that center the often-silenced voices of Women of color, queer, trans and non binary folks and immigrants.

There's Power in Black Centered Theatre Spaces

In this episode of Intersectionality in the American South, host Dr. Katie Acosta talks with Jamil Jude, artistic director of Atlanta’s True Colors Theatre Company, about how a football injury in college unexpectedly led to his lifelong passion for theater. Jude reflects on the power of Black theater spaces that cater to a predominantly Black audience and the possibilities for socially relevant theater to move people toward empathy and action. Jude speaks candidly about the sacrifices the industry requires and the rewards of parenting within it. Above all, he relies on the power of community, rest and stillness to remain grounded in hard times.  Follow us on instagram @intersectsouth or visit our website at  https://sites.gsu.edu/intersectsouth/ [https://sites.gsu.edu/intersectsouth/]

Immigrant Advocacy and Hospitality in Atlanta: The Work of Casa Alterna

In this episode of Intersectionality in the American South, host Dr. Katie Acosta speaks with Anton Flores-Maisonet, founder of Casa Alterna in Decatur, Georgia, about the organization hospitality and support of asylum seekers and other migrants. Flores-Maisonet shares Casa Alena’s evolution over nearly 20 years—from relationships formed through an immigrant church and cooperative housing, to accompaniment and hospitality near detention sites, to recent daily volunteer presence at Atlanta’s ICE field office. Casa Alterna volunteers provide food, information, risk screening, and referrals to attorneys, while facing increased scrutiny and restricted access. Flores-Maisonet discussed obstacles within the legal immigration system, rising detention numbers and harsh, inconsistent policies, and shares a story from his book Welcome Friends [https://www.amazon.com/Welcome-Friends-Stories-hospitality-immigrants/dp/B0FD8K3YG1] about one asylum seeker’s resilience.  00:00 Show Introduction 00:59 Meet Anton Flores-Maisonet 01:51 Casa Alterna's Mission 03:30 Hospitality And ICE 06:04 Work Evolution Framework 10:10 Pivots with a New Administration 11:28 Faith And Mutual Aid 13:12 Day At ICE Field Office 18:06 Detention Conditions Deteriorate 19:55 Barriers In the Legal Process 28:02 Benny 's Story From Welcome, Friends 32:05 Avoiding Burnout 36:50 Closing And Resources Learn more about Casa Alterna's work by visitng their website https://casaalterna.org/ Follow us on instagram @intersectsouth or visit our website at  https://sites.gsu.edu/intersectsouth/ [https://sites.gsu.edu/intersectsouth/]

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
