We would like to offer you some bonus content as we wrap up our final full episode, Ep. 10, “Sealing this Sankofa.” ‘

This short bonus episode, “Mothering Organisers” features two interview excerpts which we did not include in the episodes. Candacy McEwan of Guyana Trans United and Amira Teul of Toledo Maya Women’s Council transport us back to their girl- / young adulthood selves, recounting how their mother’s built and nourished a foundation for their ongoing organizing. Their experiences of being mothered is also the foundation of what we can think of as their womanist approach to organizers - a commitment to working, patiently, with families, and being a support in any way, including extra-programmatically. Triggers include transphobia, misogyny, domestic violence, and death.
