The South Has The Answers Joy Channel, Luna Malbroux

LAAF's Bayou Block Party has been mentioned in every episode. The vibes, the fun, but also the connections and conversations that were had and made were something we wanted to share with you! In this episode, we hear from Eric Fleming, who spoke with guests at LAAF's Bayou Block Party about their experiences one year post Roe. Folks share what they've been holding, and where there understandings have shifted in their work of supporting and showing up for community.

In this episode, Luna sits down with the Executive Director of LAAF, Chasity Wilson, JD. A real treat for listeners - Chasity speaks incredibly candidly about the good, the bad and the ugly - in her experiences as the leader of an abortion fund - and what she is doing to shift the culture both within LAAF, and among the broader reproductive justice community.

In this episode we are joined by Tyler Barbarin, activist, organizer and the director of grants and development for Louisiana Abortion Fund. Tyler and host Luna Malbroux chop it up about mutual aid and the power of joy and community connection. As the person who dubbed this podcast 'The South Has The Answers", Tyler drops some major truth bombs about anti-Southern sentiment that you got to tune in for.

We are magical creatures. Period. In this episode, host Luna Malbroux kicks it with AJ Haynes, Louisiana Abortion Fund's Board Chair. The two discuss the vision of reproductive justice as spellcasting - in that it names not only the future one may want to live in, but makes way for creating change in the present.

As a reporter on race, parenting and reproductive health, Dani McClain has spent decades listening to leaders of the Reproductive Justice movement, like Loretta Ross. In this conversation, host Luna Malbroux explores what thought leaders have expanded McClain's understanding of reproductive justice and what personal and liberatory lessons she's uncovered as a national reporter covering reproductive health.

In the trailer, we uncover what this whole thing is about - and how what goes on in the South is often a bell weather for the nation.
