Relative Digressions

Thrown back to the origin of core Who mythos, Flick and Wrenna tackle the crossed wires of fandom and memory. The Doctor isn't incapable of genocide, the kaled aren't nazis, and Genesis of the Daleks... Might not be that good? In this hour long special episode, your hosts mean to subvert everything Genesis has become, but do they have the right?

A glimpse at the making of Episode #6, covering Genesis of the Daleks.

Orbiting Solos, we answer the perennial question 'Since when has Doctor Who been so *political*?'

Voices of people of colour in the Who fandom:

@BlackTARDIS is a prolific, informed, community building Twitter account. They've also put together a Twitter list of Whovians of Colour (https://twitter.com/i/lists/1073169143635992576).

Time and Relative Blackness in Space is a podcast by Robyn Jordan, Bayana Davis, and Constance Gibbs. It's part of the wider Black Girls Create group (blackgirlscreate.org), which describes itself as an intersectional hub for Black creators and critical fandom.

Joy Piedmont (@InquiringJoy) is the producer of realitybombpodcast.com and cohost of fiveyearsrapid.libsyn.com .

Tai Gooden (@taigooden) is an editor and writer at Nerdist, which many of you are surely tapped into.

Woke Doctor Who (wokedoctorwho.com) by Toya and Eugenia is 'A podcast about race and representation in Doctor Who with an asian lady from DC and a black lady from Baltimore'.

This is a tiny tiny fragment of people of colour creating a space for discussion from their experiences in Doctor Who fandom, let alone any broader community.

Please remember, protests might not be headline news any more, but racism hasn't gone away. Continue to support creators of colour, to make space for people of colour in fandom, and carry that through into the rest of your lives too.
