Listen in as we honor the 2nd anniversary of the release of The Chicana M(other)work Anthology with our contributors. We discuss its impact on ourselves, our communities, and the broader field.

Season 4 Episode 1: The Chicana M(other)work Anthology Reunion

We dedicate this podcast to Chicano activist, musician, father, and beloved community member of San Diego and beyond, Ramon "Chunky" Gonzalez. We play the song "Chicano Park" by his band Los Alacranes in his honor. His daughter, activist-mother Esmi Sanchez, joins us with Michelle, Judi, Yvette, Christine, and Cecilia. Through a platica and healing circle, we discuss the aftermath of the presidential election and its affects upon ourselves, our children, and our communities and how we can work together with the intention to create community power and cultivate radical love. We close by sharing resources about how to dismantle and fight racism, especially as they relate to populations which are the most vulnerable, as well as tips about how to protest safely with our children in the streets.
