    Episode 42-Jess Waters: "The Divinity Streak"

    The Dope Science Show Podcast is a science lifestyle podcast that discusses science, indie film, music, politics and everything in between. Making science an everyday conversation. We are all dope scientists! In this episode we hang out with me, your host, Stephany Lowe and Jess Waters. Jess is a Black non-binary TV writer who writes stories about re-conceptualizing queerness and Blackness. We discuss Jess’s most recent work; a short film called “The Divinity Streak” which is a part of the Netflix x Ghetto Film School Content Creation Program. “The Divinity Streak” is a drama about 3 black activists who hijack a space shuttle to Mars. It is a story about identity, resilience and freedom. You can watch it on the Netflix Film Club YouTube channel. We talk about how Jess’ Black queer identity is represented in their work and the importance of re-imagining history to tell Black stories from a Black non-binary queer perspective. Jess shares their list of artists who influence their work. We talk about music and their writing process and we reminisce about our very first time on set together. I was a production assistant on the film and I had an amazing time on set:) Thank you all for listening, follow Jess on their Instagram @jm_waters.

    Science lifestyle podcast that discusses crowdfunding , indie film, music, politics, randomness , education and everything science. We are all dope scientists! In this episode, our host Stephany Lowe and Raven Baxter aka Raven the Science Maven discuss the strength and freedom found in staying true to your authentic self. @RaventheScienceMaven is a Science Education PhD candidate (she majored in Molecular Biology undergrad), who got tired of #codeswitching in the lab and one day decided to write a song about it. #BigOleGeeks was born. A "scientific parody" of the hit song Big Ole Freaks by Megan Thee Stallion, Raven's goal is to reach more young people through STEM. In fact, she is currently creating an ENTIRE COLLEGE LEVEL STEM CURRICULUM for high school students to do just that. She also wants to prove that being Back and nerdy does not mean you can't be Black and sexy. And yes...scientists do twerk. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-dope-science-show/support
