Movement Memos

Our Movements Need Infrastructure for Care, Recovery and Belonging


Listen Later

“What are the ways we could organize people into new social forms in which new human, more humane, more liberatory capacities would emerge that we could use for our own liberation?” asks Aaron Goggans of the WildSeed Society. In this episode of “Movement Memos,” Goggans and host Kelly Hayes talk about how activists can resist the trends of late capitalism, including the alienation imposed by the tech world, by cultivating modes of communication and communal care that defy the norms of our individualist society. Goggans argues that social movements are “responsible for figuring out a liberatory and empowering way of filling … the human desire for mutual recognition, belonging and connection.”

Music: Son Monarcas, Brendon Moeller, Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen, Lama House, David Celeste & Yonder Dale
