This is a special live report from the inaugural We Out Here Trail Festival that just happened this last weekend on June 7, 2025. It took place outside Seattle, WA, at St. Edwards State Park.  The trail scene is and has long been the whitest, most male dominated sector of the running world. Instead of continuing to wait for the system to change, RDs Aaliyah Earvin and Alison Mariella Désir stepped up and made the event that they have wanted to see for a long, long time, and that they knew it was possible.  Their vision: “We imagine a world where everyone feels welcome to find joy in the trails, free from fear or intimidation, and surrounded by a supportive community.” Welcome, We Out Here. An event that, by all accounts, not only met, but exceeded expectations. Event participation featured the largest percentage of people of color at a trail event, ever. And 66% of participants were first timers. And, the day was nonstop full of joy! Which you will hear reflected in this episode.  Not only did these women create a successful event, they created a new model. It's not often that you get to be at a history making groundbreaking event. And, I'm really excited to share this with you.  This episode comprises a series of on-the-spot interviews featuring women talking about their experience of the day. Many of these women you will likely not be familiar with, but several you probably will: Verna Volker, founder of Native Women Run; Carolyn Su, founder of Diverse We Run and co-host of the Making Strides podcast with Stefanie Flippen; Flippin, a pro racer, is also featured in this episode: she is one of the fastest a 100-mile racers in the country; and you'll also hear from Mirna Valerio, author of the book, A Beautiful Work In Progress. Also, you'll hear from the two race directors, Earvin, who is a coach, fitness professional, and community builder, and Désir, who, among many other accolades, is the author of the groundbreaking book Running While Black.  Get a taste of what it was like, live at this historic event, the inaugural We Out Here Trail Festival.

In this exciting episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by the enthusiastic Laura Bailey, programme director for living history and events at the Chalke History Festival. Together, they kick off the festival with a deep dive into the fascinating world of mediaeval literature, challenging the misconceptions that often overshadow this rich historical source. The Chalke History Festival Unveiled:Laura introduces listeners to the Chalke History Festival, likening it to "Glastonbury for history nerds" where history enthusiasts can enjoy a week of talks, living history performances, and engaging activities that make the past come alive.She shares her journey from volunteer to programme director, highlighting the festival's commitment to making history accessible and engaging for all, and the importance of connecting historical narratives to contemporary issues. Literary Texts as Historical Sources:Laura passionately argues for the recognition of literary texts as legitimate historical sources, particularly those from the mediaeval period. She discusses the often-overlooked value of texts like the "Roman de Fergus," which, despite being dismissed by some as mere fiction, provides invaluable insights into social dynamics, geography, and the cultural landscape of the time.Listeners will learn how these texts can illuminate the complexities of courtly life, the significance of language, and the interplay between fiction and history, ultimately enriching our understanding of the mediaeval world. Challenging Historical Methodology:Throughout the episode, Laura critiques the traditional reliance on documentary sources, advocating for a more nuanced approach that considers the rich tapestry of narratives found in literary works. She emphasises the importance of examining how these texts reflect the thoughts and experiences of their authors and audiences, urging historians to embrace the multiplicity of perspectives that literature offers.

Under the direction of Alexandra Bodnarchuk, Doma Dance Theater creates dance works for the stage and screen that explore the body as a tangible site of culture. Doma, the Carpatho-Rusyn word for “at home,” cultivates a sense of belonging, curiosity, and exuberant self-expression for its performers and audiences.

As the first Carpatho-Rusyn American choreographer to make contemporary work with a folk lens, Doma's works blaze a trail for Slavic representation in contemporary dance, demonstrating the enduring necessity of unearthing the cultural legacies each of us carry.Founded in 2024, Doma represents an evolution of Alexandra Bodnarchuk Dance Projects (ABDP), founded in 2017. Building upon Bodnarchuk's past focus on body identity and societal expectations of womanhood, Doma continues to unfold the embodied experience in an ongoing search for the elusive feeling of home.Doma'a inaugural season includes performances at Candy Box Dance Festival, and Thistle & Rose at Celtic Junction.

Featuring dancers Alexandra Bodnarchuk, Non Edwards, Odessa Rain, and Yukina Sato accompanied by Mila Vocal Ensemble, the women weave in and around each other in syncopated harmony.
