Through the Portal is a podcast from the Social Justice Portal Project, a national collaborative think tank hosted by the Social Justice Initiative at the University of Illinois Chicago. Each month, grassroots activists and radical scholars will give voice to community struggles, national strategies and sustainable alternatives for the future. The guest speakers, who are also Portal Project participants, explore what it means to walk through the portal of the current moment by centering racial and social justice issues. On Episode 3, Damon and Teresa talk with Harsha Walia. Harsha is the award-winning author of Undoing Border Imperialism (2013) and, most recently, Border and Rule (2021). Trained in the law, she is a community organizer and campaigner in migrant justice, anti-capitalist, feminist, and anti-imperialist movements, including No One Is Illegal and Women’s Memorial March Committee. She breaks down how borders are central to carceral systems, the lessons to be learned from indigenous boundary protection, and what is more possible when we emerge through the portal into a borderless world.

On this bonus episode, we hear a conversation recorded live at the Chicago Transformation Collab on June 26th, 2022. The Collab brought together a select community of leaders to get aligned in the current moment, have transformative conversations, and build stronger collaborative visions in the fight against fearmongering, carceral policies, and attempts to rollback modest reforms. This conversation, entitled "What We're Up Against," discusses the tension between the messages we want to share, and the messages people are ready to hear. In a conversation that centers the importance of this moment for narrative alignment in Chicago, panelists will discuss tactics that have succeeded or faltered in the past and what lessons we can glean from such outcomes. Participants include: Insha Rahman, Vice President of Advocacy and Partnerships, Vera Institute of Justice Sam Sinynagwe, Founder, Mapping Police Violence & Police Scorecard Sharone Mitchell, Public Defender, Cook County Lacy Wright, Executive Director, Hillman Grad Foundation SHOW NOTES Learn about the Chicago Transformation Summit: http://chicagotransformation.org/summit/

The guys recently had the opportunity to be a part of Columbia University's Anti-Oppression and Decolonial Oral History workshop series. They hosted the final workshop in the series, entitled Talking Toward Repair, in which they break down how AirGo is attempting to create an anticolonial practice of dialogue, media-making, and archive-building. We wanted to share some pieces of the workshop as a teaching tool and resource for how to create humanizing, subject-to-subject dialogue in service of liberation!

Recently Dame and Kiss had the opportunity to hop on City Cast Chicago, a daily news podcast, fresh every weekday at 6 a.m. It’s a smart and delightful new way to connect with the city we share. With host Jacoby Cochran, the guys talk about the use of Chicago as a political scapegoat for politicians unwilling to offer common sense solutions to gun violence, Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s 10 p.m. curfew for minors, the environmental justice fight to end “sacrifice zones,” and some more book-themed good news you definitely want to stick around for!

AirGo's excited to help spread the word about a new show from our movement family! Zayd Dohrn was born underground - his parents were radicals and counter-culture outlaws, on the run from the FBI. Now Zayd takes us back to the 1970s, when his parents and their young friends in the Weather Underground Organization declared war on the United States government. They brawled with riot cops on the streets of Chicago, bombed the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol, broke comrades out of prison, and teamed up with Black militant groups to rob banks, fight racism - and help build a revolution. The first episodes just came out, subscribe wherever you get your pods!

The guest speakers, who are also Portal Project participants, explore what it means to walk through the portal of the current moment by centering racial and social justice issues. On Episode 2, Dame and cohost Teresa Cordova of UIC talk Economic Democracy with Esteban Kelly. Esteban is Executive Director for the US Federation of Worker Cooperatives and is a worker-owner and co-founder of AORTA (Anti-Oppression Resource & Training Alliance), a worker co-op that builds capacity for social justice projects through intersectional training and consulting. He breaks down how building a worker coop might be easier than you think, the ways that we have to reclaim concepts of structure and organization from the capitalist class, and what he imagines the great labor awakening of today turning into.
