Show Notes

Food activists Jocelyn Jackson and Cheyenne Kyle discuss food as a means of liberation, keeping history, and showing community love.

Artist and activist Carolina Caycedo discusses her project “Be Dammed” — a geochoreagraphy that chronicles the movement of rivers, how they become blocked by dams, and the negative effects dams have on communities who have historically lived near those bodies of water.

Artist and BMI Shearing Fellow Faylita Hicks revisits the Declaration of Independence, the principles that guide the democratic solutions of North America. In rewriting this document they reimagine what the United States could be.
