Re-Thinking Race in America (Ft: Naomi Raquel Enright)
<p><strong>SHOW LESS</strong>An interview with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/naomi-raquel-enright-08437194/" target="_blank">Naomi Raquel Enright</a> author of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08M9M4YMJ/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_6CR74Y9WNE4YXQ7AAJEQ">'Strength of Soul'</a> that advances ideas about how to confront societal notions of an inherent difference between the lived experiences of white people and everyone else, notions which result in the widely held belief that there is an inevitable “us” and “them.” Enright suggests that embracing one’s total identity can allow people to challenge systemic racism as well as the language and ideology that created it and upholds it. Naomi Raquel Enright is a writer, educator and equity practitioner based in Brooklyn, NY. She is also a National SEED Facilitator and New York Appleseed Board Member. She was born in La Paz, Bolivia to an Ecuadorian mother and a Jewish-American father, and raised in New York City. She holds a BA in Anthropology from Kenyon College and studied at the Universidad de Sevilla in Spain. She writes about identity, loss, and parenting, and her essays have appeared in several publications including Hold The Line Magazine, Family Story, Role Reboot, and in the anthologies, The Beiging of America (2017) and Sharing Gratitude (2019).

Sarah Hegazi: Life, Legacy & Death
<p>In a global system where so many countries around the world continue to criminalize and subject LGBTQIA+ folks to levels of oppression and violence that are unspeakable I want to say that there are globally sanctioned suicides. On June 14, 2020 the international LGBTQIA+ community lost a significant Egyptian activist. Her name was <a href="https://www.change.org/p/everyone-raise-the-flag-for-sarah-queer-arabs-swana?utm_content=cl_sharecopy_29394873_en-US%3A7&recruiter=1211234614&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink&utm_campaign=share_petition">Sarah Hegazi</a>. In 2017 Sarah Hegazi attended a concert in Egypt. We can see a beautiful picture of her flying a rainbow flag. The consequences for her were horrific she was arrested, tortured in prison for three months and then exiled to Canada where she eventually took her own life. Four brave advocates who recently put out an<a href="https://www.change.org/p/everyone-raise-the-flag-for-sarah-queer-arabs-swana?utm_content=cl_sharecopy_29394873_en-US%3A7&recruiter=1211234614&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink&utm_campaign=share_petition"> open letter</a> break down the numerous social factors that led up to Sarah’s globally sanctioned suicide. For the sake of their safety, this episode's guests have chosen to be more private about their identities. We discuss the transnational issues that were involved in Sarah Hegazi's legacy and death. I hope this episode brings to light some of the invisibility that so many LGBTQIA+ asylum-seekers face in the West.
