Elisabeth en Marco trekken deze week het land in om mensen te spreken die in 2025 iets bijzonders maakten of meemaakten. Vandaag: Jerry Afriyie, meest bekend als leider van de actiegroep Kick Out Zwarte Piet (KOZP). Afgelopen 5 december hief KOZP zich op en sloot Jerry Afriyie een heftige vijftien jaar van activistisch werk af. ‘Ik heb de dagen afgeteld zoals gevangenen streepjes zetten op de muur,' zegt hij in de podcast. ‘Mijn leven begint in 2026.'  Zijn werk, zijn missie, heeft veel van hem gevraagd. En van zijn gezin. Jerry vertelt hoe hij zijn kinderen moest uitleggen dat ze niet alleen naar school konden lopen. Toch was het hem waard, zijn missie ging voor en hij is trots op wat er bereikt is. En nu? Op vakantie met zijn kinderen. Dat is er de afgelopen vijftien jaar niet een keer van gekomen. En dan? De film gaat nu pas beginnen, zegt hij, en we gaan zeker nog van hem horen. Reageren?

*Mariah Carey voice* IT'S TIIIIIIIIME… For our annual year-in-review! HOE-HOE-HOLY shit, Buzzkillianas. 2025 was a hellacious year in Abortlandia, so you already know the Feminist Buzzkills are re-hashing, re-roasting, re-raging, and even re-celebrating over what went down this year in regards to all tings repro-related. Lizz and Moji took a little sleigh ride down memory lane, made their lists checking them twice, and figured out what stories were the naughtiest, the nicest and the bizarre AF-est! From a certain brainworm host thinking the nation guzzles abortion water, to exposing the hypocrisy of an anti-abobo Bible humper who just got caught using AI to make something so disgusting we'd get banned if we told you—so we're spilling anyway. And YES, there actually were some abobo wins this year too! So, buckle up for our favorite end of year tradition: unpacking the year's top-tier triumphs and bottom-of-the-barrel, bargain-bin bullshit of abortion news. Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all.

Why does sustainability matter in activist art? When funding cycles are short, residencies are brief, and institutions often treat creative work as temporary or expendable, what does it mean to commit to change that lasts?In this episode of Art Is Change, the sixth in our series on the building blocks of effective community arts practice, Bill Cleveland sits down with two legendary cultural leaders — Leni Sloan and Barbara Schaefer Bacon — to explore sustainability not as longevity for its own sake, but as ethical responsibility. From invisible lineages of community practice to the quiet power of relationships that outlast grants, they examine what truly endures when art engages deeply with communities.Drawing on decades of experience as practitioners, funders, and advocates, this conversation challenges conventional ideas of growth, impact, and institutional survival.asks whether sustainability lies in organizations, practices, relationships, or something more elusive — trust, memory, and the transmission of creative values across generations.If you are an artist, cultural organizer, funder, or community partner grappling with how to build work that matters beyond the life of a project, this episode offers hard-earned wisdom, moral clarity, and a powerful reminder: some forms of change are too important to be temporary.NOTABLE MENTIONS PeopleLenwood “Leni” Sloan – Activist artist, cultural organizer, impresario, and long-time leader in community-based arts practice; featured guest on Art Is Change.Barbara Schaffer Bacon – Former Co-Director of Animating Democracy, a national initiative advancing arts-based civic dialogue and democratic practice.Bill Cleveland – Host of Art Is Change and Director of the Center for the Study of Art and Community, with decades of experience in arts-based community development and cultural organizing.Liz Lerman – Choreographer, civic artist, and thought leader whose work has profoundly shaped community-based and socially engaged dance practice.John O'Neal – Playwright, performer, and cultural organizer; co-founder of the Free Southern Theater and founder of Junebug Productions, a cornerstone of African American community-based theater.M.

This week we are joined by a very special guest. Activist, organizer, horror aficionado, friend of the show, and the woman that holds up more than half the sky for one of our hosts, Joy, joins us to talk about the 1974 classic Black Christmas. Written by Roy Moore and directed by Bob Clark, this seminal horror classic starring Olivia Hussey and Margot Kidder is widely considered the earliest iteration of the slasher film and contains feminist themes that run counter to many of the films that would follow in its footsteps. We discuss the absolute failure of every man in the film, how police in Canada are apparently as incompetent as the police in the US, and how almost every slasher since Black Christmas has failed to live up to its standard of intelligent characters being failed by others as opposed to being too dumb to live.

Is it possible to build relational bridges, even in contentious times?Scholar and activist john a. powell says yes. He's dedicated his life to teaching others how to belong and bridge. As the director of the Othering and Belonging Institute at the University of California, Berkeley and the founder of the Institute on Race and Poverty at the University of Minnesota, powell — who spells his name in lowercase, to signify that “we are part of the universe, not over it” — studies equity and connection. His new book, “The Power of Bridging,” is his thesis that connecting with others and honoring their humanity is the only way to create a world where we all belong. powell came back to Minnesota on a cold night in early December, at the invitation of The Bush Foundation and MPR, to talk with MPR News reporter and host Catharine Richert about how to do the work of bridging, even at this divisive moment in history. He shared stories from his own life, talked about how to bridge (or not) with folks who don't want to bridge and discussed how the work of bridging and belonging is as much internal as external.
