In a meditation on oppression, host Aayaan creates a space to have honest conversations about how domination is a design through which we relate to one another. How is oppression designed to live in socio-economic, ecological, and cultural landscapes, and what possibilities do we have to do things differently?
In this episode, Dr. Kim Cameron Dominguez and Aayaan discuss how they relate to the essay "On Theory as Liberatory Practice" written by Black feminist and cultural theorist bell hooks, and published by the Yale Law Journal of Feminism in 1991. Kim highlights the work of Brittney Cooper (IG: @professor_crunk) and Aayaan mentions Sonya Renee Taylor and Richie Reseda as two Black feminists who have had a significant impact on them.
