Description
In this special group interview, Celtic shares drinks with members of Freedom Movement (Jade "Soul" Zuberi, Isis Avalos, Dr. Damon Silas, and JoJo Diggs) as they discuss the potential dangers we face regardless of who wins the election, the fear of reprisals from embittered Trump fans, the expectation of BIPOC to save the rest of America at the polls, proximity to whiteness in the Latinx community, the spiritual reckoning of white feminism, the fallacy of apolitical guest dancers within Black culture, settling for the illusion of community, progressive racism and navel gazing within liberal white communities, white supremacy as a system of codependency, identifying with the aggressor, malignant narcissism, firearms and self-defense, mental health resources, and other practical survival strategies to move forward in this new age.
