Depicting Our Ancestors: DWELL Artist Feature with Ayeola, Hadar, Shelby


Listen Later

Join us for an extra special episode with ⁠Ayeola Omolara Kaplan⁠ and ⁠⁠Hadar Cohen⁠, two of the talented artists who created pieces for the ⁠⁠DWELL in Revolution project. In this episode, we discuss their creation processes, the ancestors that they depicted, why this project is important, and everything in between. Listen to the full episode to hear ⁠Shelby Handler⁠ reading their piece from DWELL!

So much work went into this beautiful project, a project that enables folks to learn about and honor their anti-zionist ancestors. It is so essential that we see these examples of anti-zionism in our history, so that we can strengthen our own anti-zionist foundations. It’s equally as essential to begin learning about ancient ancestral practices and rituals that zionism has tried to stamp out of Judaism. ⁠⁠If you don’t already have it, you can purchase the DWELL zine here.⁠⁠


[This episode was recorded in February 2025.]


Big thanks to Ayeola and Hadar for joining us, to Shelby for reading their piece, and to Jessie for editing the podcast, and to Nate for our podcast music. If you want to support our work, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠you can do so here.⁠⁠⁠
