    13 - Being non-binary part 2 - with Kim and Kenny

    In part 2 of being non-binary we dive a bit deeper into our personal experiences with gender and sexuality, and how we each define terms like queer, trans, gay and lesbian for ourselves. Is finding someone physically attractive the same as being sexually or romantically attracted to them? We also talk about how dysphoria shows up in different ways and that it’s different for each person.

    12 - Being non-binary part 1 with Kim and Kenny

    In this episode we discuss the intricacies of being non-binary and what that means to Shari, Kenny and Kim, our guests for this episode. This conversation is split up into part 1 and 2.  In this part we talk about the "basics". The journey to understanding what non-binary means, how we identify with it, and our pronouns. We also talk about how to apologise if you’ve misgendered someone, stereotypes, and how white supremacy plays a role in our understanding of the gender binary.  Kenny: @kennywiththejuice on Instagram Kim: @_victoriousfitness on Instagram  Genderbread person: https://www.genderbread.org/resource/genderbread-person-v4-0  Our MARVELOUSLY updated cover art: @liamunchi on Instagram; website: http://liamunchi.com/ Theme music: @this_is_zel on Twitter; @thisiszelofficial on Instagram

    AToaD Ep 2 - 'Het Verleden - Dichtbij' with Beyond Walls

    A Tapestry of a Diaspora Episode 2 - 'Het verleden - Dichtbij' with Beyond Walls  A collaboration with Gyonne Goedhoop and TENT Rotterdam In this episode, we spoke with Julia Jouwe and Djé-rimo who have been connected to us through Beyond Walls. We discussed what it means to be part of the ‘Indonesian’ diaspora, living in the country of the colonizer. We also talk about how the colonial past has been misconstrued by the Dutch and how we were only taught their interpretations of the past. How different communities from many islands and countries have simply been grouped up and called ‘Indonesians.’ While Indonesia has gained independence from colonial rule, this had completely different implications for Papua and the Maluku Islands, where our guests are from. They share with us how they look back on this moment in the history of the region. With this episode we wanted to bring their narrative more to the front. In doing so we are again confronted by how complicated colonial history actually is. A Tapestry of a Diaspora is Gyonne's brainchild but brought to life by the collaboration with Combined Impact and all of the other collaboration partners. Within A Tapestry of A Diaspora we ask questions about what the day to day strategies on resiliency are for different young, diasporic people (living in big cities like Rotterdam). In what ways are our different diasporas connected? What are the methodologies that we use in our daily lives to keep our joy going? To care for ourselves and others in our own ways? What are the ways these resilience strategies and projections can work for us or against us? P.S.: This episode is predominantly in Dutch.

    11 - Ghosting

    Ghosting is something very common that we all end up doing or have happen to us at some point in our lives. During this impromptu live recording session we discussed this topic while chatting with our listeners and having a GREAT time, which also meant that this episode is chaotic AF. Have fun listening! A special thanks to @liamunchi and @melolelo who contributed during the recording of this episode.

    AToaD Ep 1 - 'Resilience' within the MENA community with KLAUW

    A Tapestry of a Diaspora Episode 1 - 'Resilience' within the MENA community with KLAUW  A collaboration with Gyonne Goedhoop and TENT Rotterdam In this episode, we spoke with Berk and Imane from KLAUW Collective about the unique challenges that (women) from the MENA community can face. The session started with us watching the short film ‘The Truth Within’ by director Randa Nassar. This short film was recommended by the founder of ciMENA Film Club, Ibrahim Alaoui, who also spoke a bit about ciMENA and how this film club came to be. Important for us to also mention is that this conversation was recorded about two days after the occurrences in Afghanistan where the Taliban got the dominant power back in the US-led war. Killing and displacing even more Afghan people.

    9 - Our Relationship with Clothing

    In this episode we discuss how society perceives people based on what they choose (or don't choose) to wear. Who gets to experiment with their clothing style? Why do we take some people more seriously than others, solely based on their clothing? How can we recognize our own prejudices and how can we make it a safer experience for everyone?   Theme music: @this_is_zel on Twitter @thisiszelofficial on Instagram   Cover art: @liamunchi on Instagram website: http://liamunchi.com/​
