    This week, I sat down with Julie Rae Powers, a photographer based out of Brooklyn NY who’s lived in a bunch of different places in Appalachia. We had a great chat about LGBTQ+ representation in the media, as well as about their upbringing in Appalachia and her current photography work.

    Liz Pavlovic

    For this week’s episode I sat down with Liz Pavlovic, an artist best known for her illustrations of West Virginia cryptids. We chatted about her inspiration for her art and the sudden interest in cryptids in popular culture. ---- On the same day that George Floyd’s murderer Derek Chauvin was convicted, the Columbus Police shot and killed 16 year-old (Ma-kya) Ma’Khia Bryant after she called them for help. And a few days before Daunte Wright was killed during a traffic stop not too far from where Derek Chauvin’s trial was being held. While this guilty verdict is excellent news, one act of accountability is not enough to undo centuries of white supremacy that has been built into our law enforcement.
