In this episode, you and I are going to unpack this question: how do we keep fighting for liberation in Gaza, Sudan, Congo, and Ukraine in between school drop off, pick up, and grocery runs? How do we fight against antisemitism and Islamophobia in between our work shifts, Zoom meetings, and the kids’ homework? How do we grieve the lives that have been lost when we can’t fall apart…otherwise the whole family will fall apart too? I invite you to explore a liberatory practice from disability justice by adapting the rhythm and pacing of your advocacy according to your capacity to replace burnout with sustained organizing. In this rhythm and pacing, you’ll experiment with ways to unplug and other advocacy actions to take to stay plugged in. It’s a bit of political analysis, a bit of neuroscience, and a whole lot of action.
