In Episode 109, Gen and Jette discuss Pet by Akwaeke Emezi. We absolutely loved this one and are now planning on reading everything Emezi has written, including Bitter, the prequel story to Pet. Show Notes: This episode is in keeping with our annual December tradition of replacing a discussion about a certain series featuring a certain boy wizard in favour of queer, and especially trans, stories. Check out last year's discussion of A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee, and our episode on Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas from the year before that. The name of the poem by Dylan Thomas featuring the line "rage against the dying of the light" is called "Do not go gentle into that good night." Another poem that Gen loves is, "In my craft or sullen art." The radio play that she has yet to read is called Under Milk Wood. Emezi's novel You Made A Fool of Death with Your Beauty, their first romance, is partially inspired by Florence + The Machine's song "Hunger." That might be enough for us to give romance a try.

Emezi's Future Fable highlights the importance of accepting help from others. Akwaeke Emezi has won a plethora of prestigious awards, and have been featured on the cover of TIME Magazine as a 2021 Next Generation Leader. Their most recent novel, You Made a Fool of Death With Your Beauty, was released in 2022. Artwork by Chioma Ebinama

While porn and sex addiction can have a number of negative consequences, one of the most destructive aspects of the disorder is the toll it takes on your finances. The cost of pursuing multiple sexual partners, paying for sex, and supporting a lifestyle that revolves around seeking out sexual experiences can quickly add up. The financial strain of sex addiction can cause problems in all areas of life, from ruining relationships to destroying careers.  In this episode, I speak with JK Emezi from Elevated Recovery. He helps people recovery from their pornography addictions. I think you will find the episode very insightful!

Pornography is the addiction nobody wants to talk about. But it's wildly destructive and almost every child is exposed to it. Today, the average age of first exposure is just 8 years old (down from 11 as recently as 2016). Porn addiction recovery coach and podcaster J.K. Emezi explains what no parent wants to hear, including that “it's not a matter of if your child is going to be exposed to pornography, it's really a matter of when.” Then in America Q&A, we ask if you think pornography is harmful to the people who watch it. Next, we look at pornography from the other side. What's the truth behind the porn industry? Anti-sex trafficking advocate Jaco Booyens exposes how it's all connected. Finally, in our second America Q&A, we ask: Are you worried about monkeypox? ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Continuing the theme of recent publications, Akwaeke Emezi's new book "You Made A Fool of Death With Your Beauty" gives us some real food for thought as we grapple with some interesting issues through the medium of a rather unexpected romance! Described on Emezi's Instagram account as "horny bisexual chaos", we certainly had some Thoughts and Feelings - join us to discover this rather unusual novel and see if you agree with our assessment!

«Pet» og «Bitter» av Akwaeke Emezi, foredrag ved Lara Okafor.Hva er koblingene mellom spekulativ fiksjon og den ekte kampen for en bedre verden? Ungdomsromanene Pet (2019) og Bitter (2022) handler begge om livet i byen Lucille, henholdsvis etter og før det blir et utopisk samfunn. Akwaeke Emezi har bygget verdenen på arbeidet til aktivisten Mariame Kaba, som jobber med fengselsavskaffelse, å støtte ungdomsledelse og å gjøre slutt på vold. I Pet og Bitter utforsker Emezi veien mot et ideelt samfunn, og det harde arbeidet man må gjøre for å holde monstrene vekk også når alle tror at kampen er vunnet.Akwaeke Emezi (f. 1987) er en nigeriansk forfatter. De debuterte med romanen Freshwater i 2018 til stor jubel fra både lesere og kritikere, og har allerede rukket å utgi 6 bøker siden. Forfatterskapet deres blander fantasy, mytologi og sosialrealisme, og tar for seg temaer som identitet, spiritualitet, tilhørighet og urettferdighet, med mye inspirasjon fra eget liv og egen nigeriansk (spesielt igbo) arv.Lara Okafor er masterstudent ved Universitetet i Oslo med lang bakgrunn fra den skeive aktivismen, blant annet som styreleder i Skeiv Verden Oslo og Viken og prosjektkoordinator i Salam Norge. I vår er de aktuell som forfatter i den ferske science fiction-antologien En strek gjennom tyngdekraften. I dette foredraget forteller Okafor om Emezis to ungdomsromaner og hvordan spekulativ fiksjon kan brukes til å fantasere om en bedre (skeiv) fremtid.Foredraget inngår i serien Skeive klassikere, hvor ulike foredragsholdere tar for seg gamle og nye storverk fra den skeive litteraturen.

In this episode we discuss Pet by Akwaeke Emezi, their debut young adult novel. It's a pretty quick read that deals with some heavy issues in ways that are accessible to younger audiences (i.e., middle grade) as well as teen and adult readers. Pet was a finalist for the 2019 National Book Award for Young People's Literature  – after reading it, we understand why! Content warning for discussions child physical and sexual abuse.  On to some (brief) notes! Kelly highly recommends Emezi's article “My Spirit Burns Through This Body” (Paris Review, 10 December 2020). “My spirit bends worlds and does things that shouldn't be possible, not with the way my flesh or this world is set up, but I'm learning that my body is something to be reckoned with as well. It keeps receipts and inevitably claims its debts.” Emezi's other books include The Death of Vivek Oji, Freshwater, and Dear Senthuran Kelly has been learning from the collection Beyond Survival: Strategies and Stories from Transformative Justice Movements, edited by Ejeris Dixon and Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha Check out this short video about the book cover design process Transcript to come Spring 2021 As always, we'd love to be in discussion with you, magical folx.

Two award-winning authors return to Greenlight as Akwaeke Emezi discusses their highly anticipated new novel The Death of Vivek Oji in a lively conversation with Rivers Solomon.  The two talk about the challenges of writing a book where the main character dies in the first chapter, the origins of the book in ideas of mis-gendering, the setting in the Nigeria of Emezi's youth, biological vs. chosen families, and how "writing deviants" challenges people's concepts of themselves. (Recorded August 6, 2020) 

In the novel THE DEATH OF VIVEK OJI by Awaeke Emezi, it opens in a town in southeastern Nigeria, where a mother opens her front door to discover her young adult son’s body, wrapped in colorful fabric, at her feet. What follows is the tumultuous, heart-wrenching story of one family’s struggle to understand a child who grows up as a mystery to his mother and father, but finds his own path with support from a close knit group of friends. Akwaeke Emezi is a writer and visual artist based in liminal spaces, as well as a 2018 National Book Foundation '5 Under 35' honoree. Born and raised in Nigeria, Emezi is currently working on their eighth book.

Nigerian-American author Akwaeke Emezi's lyrical and heartbreaking third novel is brought to life by the extraordinarily gifted pairing of narrators Yetide Badaki and Chukwudi Iwuji.

 When Vivek Oji is born, his parents are surprised to find he has a scar that resembles a starfish. What’s surprising, though, is that his grandmother -- who died on the day of his birth -- had the same scar. “It tells them about reincarnation, which they are a little afraid to believe,” said author Akwaeke Emezi in conversation with MPR News host Kerri Miller. “I had written it like that because I’ve been really interested, since ‘Freshwater,’ about Igbo spirituality and the ways in which we’re disconnected from it in a contemporary sense.”  “The Death of Vivek Oji” is set in southeastern Nigeria during the 1980s and ’90s. Emezi weaves a tale about the death of the title character, while also looking at grief, different types of love and the search for self. Emezi spoke with Miller about the inspiration for the book. Guest:  Akwaeke Emezi is a video artist and the author of several books including “Freshwater.” Their latest book is “The Death of Vivek Oji.”

Hodně jsme toho promotali a hodně jsme toho taky neřekli, snad si tu pár knižních tipů najdete.

Abrimos com LE MONDE a titular, como Macron prepara a saída de crise. Três meses depois de ter decidido colocar o país sob quaretena por causa da ameaça do coronavírus, o chefe de Estado fala à nação no dia 14 de junho.  Três meses depois de ter decidido colocar o país sob quarentena por causa da ameaça do coronavírus, o chefe de Estado fala à nação no dia 14 de junho. Para Emmanuel Macron, a prioridade vai para a urgência económica mais que urgência sanitária o que justifica uma passagem para uma nova etapa. Se tem na mente impulsionar um relançamento ecológico e social, o chefe de Estado  não pretende mudar de direcção. A atractividade continua a estar no centro das suas preocupações. O presidente diz querer partilhar as responsabilidades com os parceiros sociais e eleitos locais para melhorar a distribuição de encargos e poderes. O Presidente quer ainda enviar uma mensagem aos jovens dos quais uma parte está mobilizada, contra o racismo e a violência policial, acrescenta, LE MONDE.  Os custos faraónicos da crise sanitária para França, titula, LE FIGARO. O governo já mobilizou 460 mil milhões de euros de fundos públicos para apoiar a economia. Disparam em flecha o défice e a dívida da França. Os ministros da Economia e das Contas Públicas tiveram que apresentar uma lei rectificativa das finanças para socorrer vários sectores, como o automóvel, o turismo e a aeronáutica. Isto quando a actividade económica sofrerá uma queda de 11% este ano, o défice público será de 11,4% e a dívida de 120%, o que nunca aconteceu em tempo de paz, nota, LE FIGARO.  Por seu lado, L'HUMANITÉ, titula, as cidades que a esquerda quer. Após a razia azul de 2014 e o tsunami eleitoral de 2017 as formações de progresso querem acreditar na sua sorte em 2020 e trabalham no duro em certos municípios emblemáticos entre eles 5000, onde se quer uma votação organizada na segunda volta municipais de 28 de junho. Há um jogo de alianças em cidades nas mãos da direita, como Marselha, Estrasburgo ou Havre, nota, L'HUMANITÉ. Racismo, queda de estátuas e África que gere bem coronavírus A nível internacional, LIBÉRATION, titula, racismo, a queda de símbolos. Dos Estados Unidos à Bélgica, estátuas herdadas dum passado esclavagista ou colonial são atacadas. A onda mundial de contestação antiracista relança o debate sobre a presença desses símbolos no espaço público. "Ele vai mudar o mundo", dizia na terça-feira no seu elogio fúnebre o irmão de George Floyd. A profundidade e perenidade desta mudança continuam a ser incógnitas.  Por cá, em França, o tom é de negação, afirmou a investigadora, Maboula Soumahoro, acrescenta, LIBÉRATION. Ainda sobre os Estados Unidos, LE MONDE, escreve que Trump está em mãos lençóis. Em queda livre nas sondagens, o presidente, aposta na recuperação económica, para voltar à ribalta. Segundo um um grupo de sondagens a taxa de aprovação de Trump caiu de 47% parqa 42% entre março e maio. Mas Trump estava à espera impaciente para o momento que vem aí, dos comícios políticos, estando no dia 19 de junho em Tulsa, no Oklahoma onde espera galvanizar a sua base eleitoral, nota, LE MONDE.  Sobre a África, LA CROIX, titula, coronavírus, a excepção africana. Até agora, o continente foi relativamente poupado pela pandemia. Várias hipóteses poderiam explicar esta situação encorajadora. As instituições souberam mobilizar-se antes dos primeiros casos de covid-19 no continente em fins de fevereiro. O Centro para o controlo e a prevenção das doenças, CDC, da União africana, activou logo no dia 27 de janeiro, a sua estrutura de operações de emergência e o Sistema de gestão de incidentes, que informaram e mobilizaram os estados membros africanos, elaborando nomeadamente uma estratégia de luta contra a propagação do vírus. A África, contou igualmente com a mobilização de ONG's e os seus parceiros importantes, como a China, União europeia e a Organização mundial da Saúde, OMS, acrescenta, LA CROIX.  A terminar, uma nota literária, com o suplemento cultural do vesperitno LE MONDE, a destacar o livro Água doce do nigeriano Akwaeke Emezi, cuja personagem principal e singular anda à procura do seu eu, mas os espíritos que narram a sua história não estão para ajudá-lo. É o primeiro romance do nigeriano que saiu em 2018 e bem recebido pela crítica literária nos Estados Unidos. Emezi, que nasceu na Nigéria, em 1987, de pai nigeriano e mãe da Malásia define-se como negro transsexual, não binário e múltiplo. 

Our guest for today's episode is Akwaeke Emezi, the author of the new YA novel Pet, which is a finalist for this year's National Book Award for Young People's Literature.  Emezi burst onto the literary scene with their novel Freshwater, a powerful story of a young woman inhabited by multiple spirits, and her journey to understanding her many-sided self.  Now, writing for Christopher Myers's Make Me a World YA imprint, Akwaeke brings us the story of Jam, a teenager living in the city of Lucille, a community that prides itself on having been through a revolutionary change — one that eliminated what are known as monsters — those who abused, imprisoned, or did violence to others; where a black trans girl like Jam lives in a happy community with her loving parents Bitter and Aloe.  But when Jam accidentally invokes the magic that lies dormant in her mother's powerful artwork, a strange being emerges, one that calls itself Pet.  Pet is a hunter and it has come, it tells Jam, because there are still monsters in Lucille.  I talked with Akwaeke Emezi about this ingenious and spellbinding tale, and their lifetime of making worlds out of story.

It seems that monsters have been hanging around Furthermore lately. Join me and guest Jess Harwick as we peek at Akwaeke Emezi's National Book Award nominated Young Adult novel, Pet. What lies in store for us in this pink and gold etched, girl-in-her-pajamas- covered novel? Jess and I chat about the state of YA and that term in general, whether or not razor blades in a painting is a good idea and why so many adults are reading books for kids. Did we delve in or shelve Emezi's rapidly rising world where, until one climbs out of a canvas, all monsters are no more? Thanks to Jess for joining me and thank you for listening to Furthermore!
