Over the last few weeks, I've found myself reminding others (and really, myself) that rest is indeed necessary to sustain our work. But what makes rest truly revolutionary? And does that revolutionary status change depending on who is resting?  I'll talk about all that, and more, in this episode. As mentioned, check out these readings to learn a bit more from those who have inspired me, including The Nap Ministry and Audre Lorde. And this incredible read  from Refinery29 writer Kathleen Newman-Bremang, which also helped inspire the thoughts I shared here. + a quick note for after the episode - I want to clarify that action can also be done in the form of active passive resistance, which from an outside view,  can also look like rest. These tactics are incredibly powerful, especially within BIPOC and Black communities whose bodies have been commodified for centuries, and shouldn't be discounted. Support the show

Guest: Kathleen Newman-Bremang, deputy director at Unbothered, Refinery29's sub-brand made for and by Black women Black women are exhausted. Two years into a pandemic that includes the bitter taste of racial inequities, reckonings and the brutalization of Black bodies, the pursuit of societally imposed standards of “excellence” is losing its appeal. Not only are Black women dropping out of the workforce in staggering numbers, many are asking themselves when does attempting to attain an ambiguous definition of exceptionalism become a descent into harm. In her latest article, editorial director and writer Kathleen Newman-Bremang challenges the notion and pursuit of Black exceptionalism as defined by society, and asks if embracing radical “mediocrity” is another way of reclaiming your power. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Julia De Laurentiis Johnston and Matthew Hearn.

In their interview with Oprah Winfrey, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle laid allegations of racism and more against Buckingham Palace. Does the Crown have a place in 21st-century Canada? We put that question to our national affairs panellists: Kathleen Newman-Bremang, senior editor at Refinery29, Shachi Kurl, president of the Angus Reid Institute, and Niigaan Sinclair, an Anishinaabe writer and professor, and columnist for the Winnipeg Free Press.

This week Nataizya, Elle, and Palesa chatted about Black History Month and what it means to them and to Canada. Using their trusted friend Google - they found a wonderful Refinery29 article written by Kathleen Newman-Bremang which highlights Black Canadian Women in History. In this episode they highlight 6 women in particular, of the 22 mentioned in the list. Namely; Kathleen Livingstone, Lucie Blackburn, Carrie Best, Violet King, Mairuth Sarsfield, and Jennifer Hodge de Silva. Supporting Black women is at the core of our organization. Thus, we will be featuring the work of Black women as we do research and explore different topics in the podcast. We had so much fun recording this episode and hope that it brings you lots of laughter.

Anti-racism is an ongoing practice. It's not something we can do once and be done with. Keep reading black authors, keep listening to black scholars, pay attention to your local black community. Support financially, amplify voices, attend solidarity actions, learn, learn, learn. Confront friends and family about racist behaviour/ language. Confront your own implicit biases.

This week, Chance and Noah dive into the one-inch pool of movies based on fan fiction — writing that takes the characters of more popular sources and, apparently, has them do weird sex stuff. In addition to the new YA film "After" (2019), our case study includes the mega-franchise “Fifty Shades of Grey” (2015) and one-note joke of a movie “Pride & Prejudice & Zombies” (2016). Plus, Kathleen Newman-Bremang (of Refinery29)breaks down why this genre so defined by sex isn't particularly sexy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/theplaylist/message
