I want to call in all teachers, writers, artists and business owners to take a close look at what we're “normalizing” in our practices. What cultural examples are we using to teach that feel apolitical? What references are we pointing to in our art that feel “neutral”? What narratives are we normalizing in our writing? What topics are we avoiding on our business accounts on social media? What are the employers, organizations and institutions we're connected to authorizing as the “professional stance”? What ideologies are we upholding in an attempt to be apolitical? Whose politics are we re-inscribing when we “leave politics out of it”?

This week, I had a profound conversation with activist Ashlee Marie Preston. Ashlee is a proud black, transgender woman who is constantly advocating for LGBTQ+ youth and those who are struggling. She is now 8 years sober, and has the humility and kindness to share her story of recovery from childhood abuse, meth, prostitution and homelessness with us. Ashlee is now the messenger she has been waiting for her entire life, and I believe she is a messenger for all of us too. Ashlee grew up unsure of her gender identity in the conservative state of Kentucky. She shares her harrowing story of sexual abuse, being institutionalized as a child, and how her drug addiction began. She moved to California at 19, and found herself struggling to fit in. She was fired from her retail job for being trans and became homeless, without a shelter that would accept her and her trans identity.   On the streets, Ashlee resorted to sex work as a means of survival. She turned to substances to numb out and survive. It was finally Ashlee's understanding of her relationship with God/universe, that brought her to the breaking point. She began recovery, and found her voice in activism through working with nonprofit organizations, and seeing how poorly people like her were being treated.   Everything that Ashlee thought made her broken and unworthy are now symbols of strength and beauty in her life. Without the work she's done (in spirituality, sobriety, and service), she would not be helping people like she is today.   Ashlee's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ashleemariepreston/    Our lovely sponsor this week:   Right now, you can try Better & Better's vitamin-infused toothpaste and any of their oral care products and save with this exclusive offer for listeners.

We're not quite sure how to even describe this episode, other than to say it left us wanting to journal afterwards. Erin has been trying to get adrienne maree brown on the show for quite some time, and after listening, you'll hopefully understand why. Her new novel, Grievers, is based in Detroit, and centers around a mysterious illness, loss, gentrification, loneliness, and ultimately, the importance of community. It is a poignant reflection of her life's work, and we get into her origin story, Pleasure Activism, the toxicity of Capitalism, and how to overcome the anger and the sadness to realize the bigger picture.

Highlights:   “Ashlee Marie Preston blames those racist tweets on her past Meth addiction. I guess that makes it alright, but unfortunately, of course, there's no forgiveness in cancel culture that's why we call it cancel culture.”“The sweet irony here is that the very cancel culture that Preston advocates eventually works in every direction even against those who advocate it for others.”“In the name of rectifying the supposed exclusion of some from society, practitioners of cancel culture demand the exclusion of others. Practitioners of cancel culture practice precisely what they denounced. That's the ultimate hypocrisy of cancel culture.”“Dave Chapelle's populist words that this is ultimately about corporate interest, the people versus the privileged class, got the loudest applause in his whole monologue.”“Cancel culture is inherently corrosive. It can only destroy. And that destruction will eventually and inevitably turn inwards.”Timestamps:[02:42] Backstory on the whole Dave Chapelle controversy[04:10] How one leader of the protests got caught with racist tweets[06:09] Dave Chapelle's response and the ultimate hypocrisy of cancel culture[08:09] How Dave's statement seems like he's leading a revolt against cancel culture[09:10] The support that Chapelle is getting from others and why cancel culture will always ultimately cancel itselfResources: Ep. 650 Funniest WOKE SJW FAILS Ever!!!JOIN US for our Virtual gathering of New Conservative Patriots on November 12th and 13th and Learn How YOU Can Build a Society FREE from WOKENESS!

This week, I had a profound conversation with activist Ashlee Marie Preston. Ashlee is a proud black, transgender woman who is constantly advocating for LGBTQ+ youth and those who are struggling. She is now 8 years sober, and has the humility and kindness to share her story of recovery from childhood abuse, meth, prostitution and homelessness with us. Ashlee is now the messenger she has been waiting for her entire life, and I believe she is a messenger for all of us too. Ashlee grew up unsure of her gender identity in the conservative state of Kentucky. She shares her harrowing story of sexual abuse, being institutionalized as a child, and how her drug addiction began. She moved to California at 19, and found herself struggling to fit in. She was fired from her retail job for being trans and became homeless, without a shelter that would accept her and her trans identity.   On the streets, Ashlee resorted to sex work as a means of survival. She turned to substances to numb out and survive. It was finally Ashlee’s understanding of her relationship with God/universe, that brought her to the breaking point. She began recovery, and found her voice in activism through working with nonprofit organizations, and seeing how poorly people like her were being treated.   Everything that Ashlee thought made her broken and unworthy are now symbols of strength and beauty in her life.
