003: The Journey of Health and Healing at Threewalls

At Threewalls we’ve been taking time away to heal, rest and process. Amidst a global pandemic, the continued assault on Black lives and Black bodies – and of late, the Insurrection – we’ve been needing a lot of collective care.

This episode reflects over what love and health means for our organization. Tune in as I uncover the impact of collaboration, dealing with anti-Blackness and letting go of Whiteness. Let’s continue to do the work and hold the space for the humanity of Black artists and creatives, as well as Brown and other colour, intersectional identities, and the deaf and disabled.
