<p>This is our fiftieth and final episode! Thank you everyone for your support over the past three years, we could not have done this without you. In this episode, you will hear our incredible conversation with Professors Ryan Jobson and Jennifer Freeman Marshall, PhD Candidate Delande Justinvil, and poet and ritual worker Destiny Hemphill from Wednesday, May 3rd.</p> <p>We spent an hour and a half thinking together on tending to the past and honoring our ancestors as we imagine new futures. As you listen, consider: What will you leave behind for your descendants? What gifts will you choose to share with the world with the knowledge that they are yours for that reason? What will you give, particularly at this moment where we must fight for our liberation by any means necessary? And how can you call on your ancestors to meet you there and “order your steps”? </p> <p>Thank you for listening to Season 3 of the podcast! We will be hosting our Discussion Section on May 22nd from 6-7PM ET on Zoom. <a href="https://bit.ly/ZDDiscussion2023" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Register here</a>.</p> <p>Follow us on <a href="https://twitter.com/zoras_daughters">Twitter</a> and <a href="https://instagram.com/zorasdaughters">Instagram</a> -- you never know when we might pop up with a hot take! Love and light, y'all.</p>

<p>Welcome to our ICONversations, a series where you will hear iconic Black feminist anthropologists answer five questions about their intellectual projects and growth, what their work has meant to them, and the imprints they want to leave on the world.</p> <p>Listen to our candid ICONversation with Dr. Yolanda T. Moses, the professor and mentor who is truly about that Black feminist life. We had an inspiring conversation with Dr. Moses, learning about how she models change and lives her principles. In her words: "Praxis is where I experience the change I want to see." Dr. Moses was the first woman President of CUNY City College in New York, served as Associate Vice Chancellor, Diversity and Inclusion at UC Riverside, and continues to strategically collaborate to tackle structures of inequity in higher education.</p> <p><u>Other Places to Find Dr. Moses:</u></p> <p><a href="https://rowman.com/ISBN/9780759122727/How-Real-Is-Race-A-Sourcebook-on-Race-Culture-and-Biology-Second-Edition">How Real Is Race?: A Sourcebook on Race, Culture, and Biology, Second Edition</a></p> <p><strong>We're taking a break, so we'll see you next month!</strong></p>
