    Weirding Belonging: dispatches from the periphery — Elia J. Ayoub

    Elia, who grew up in Lebanon, takes us on a profound journey across lands, cultures, and into liminality— both the in-between and the periphery— where he feels belonging has the potential to be more generative. Through the lens of radical histories and cultural studies, Elia discusses a myriad of topics and ideas, such as: languages, autism, social constructs, whiteness, diaspora connections, some current passions, and more. Throughout this impassioned narration, Elia encourages us to be with the many unknowns as we embrace the impermanence of everything— including the dominant and violent structures we are up against— creating better futures together.

    Webs of Connectivity — with Sophie Macklin

    Webs of Connectivity begins with a poetic narration by Sophie and then flows into a deep conversation with carla.  Sophie speaks to the importance of making and unmaking worlds within a practice of presence, and shares some potential pathways towards opening ourselves up to surprises within every moment or interaction so we can deepen our innate belonging. She also points to the very real horrors that lurk within the realities of Empire and our complicated identities, in particular whiteness. Woven throughout, Sophie offers vital reflections and a sense of comfort as many of us set out to (re)discover our often fractured connections across all time — including with our ancestors, our more than human kin, and throughout landscapes.
