 S4 EP 16: On White Latinx Fragility | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:02:08

Y'all, this time two of our good friends join the Zoom. In this special episode, we collaborated with Seb and Yaz of our sibling podcast Café con Chisme to tackle an intra-community conversation: how non-Black Latinxs, like us benefit from white privilege and how we can begin to unpack it. This is Part 1 of 2, (you can find the second part over at @cafeconchisme) In part 1 we tackle 2 main questions: Why are we addressing our own white-passing non-Black Latinx community? How do we benefit from whiteness, both in our lived experiences and systemically? This conversation captures the consciousness we are at now, and it has been a process. We hope that if we need to be corrected, we can be called in with compassion and restorative justice. The book Jack mentioned is “Me & White Supremacy” by Layla Saad and is a great resource to keep the conversation going, wyourself and other non-Black Latinxs.

 S4 EP 15 White Silence = Death | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:03:26

In this episode, we discuss the reason we have Pride, and why it’s important that our work is intersectional. We need to show up for Black Lives, on the streets, in our communities, in our families. This is a conversation about the ways we can tackle anti-blackness in the Latinx community but also how to start doing the inner and outer work for justice. Below are two national directories to Bail funds across the country, and local orgs doing work on the ground: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CjZMORRVuv-I-qo4B0YfmOTqIOa3GUS207t5iuLZmyA/mobilebasic https://www.papermag.com/where-to-donate-protests-minneapolis-2646128317.html?rebelltitem=6#rebelltitem6 Also in the Bay Area, The Black Earth Farms Collective is an agroecological lighthouse organization composed of skilled Pan-African and Pan-Indigenous farmers, builders, and educators who spread ancestral knowledge and train community members to build collectivized, autonomous, and chemical-free food systems. They are providing food for those affected by the recent protests, Venmo: @blackearthfarms We referenced this article in Teen Vogue by Angie Jaime https://www.teenvogue.com/story/how-latinx-people-can-fight-anti-black-racism-in-our-own-culture Recommended Reading “So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo”: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/articles/so-you-want-to-talk-about-race-by-ijeoma-oluo/' Our title references a famous poster made in 1987, by Avram Finkelstein, Brian Howard, Oliver Johnston, Charles Kreloff, Chris Lione, and Jorge Socarrás who founded the SILENCE=DEATH Project to support one another during the AIDS crisis. Inspired by the posters of the Art Workers Coalition and the Guerrilla Girls (both of whose work is on view nearby), they mobilized to spread the word about the epidemic and created the now-iconic Silence=Death poster featuring the pink triangle as a reference to Nazi persecution of LGBTQ people in the 1930s and 1940s. It became the central visual symbol of AIDS activism after it was adopted by the direct-action advocacy group AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP).
