"I'm passionate about collaboration between the generations. We have things to learn from you and you have things to learn from us."Sah is joined by queer elder Jim Cartwright to take listeners on a powerful journey through the AIDS crisis, exploring both its devastating impact and the unexpected gifts that emerged from the darkness.

Jim shares how transformative practices like Body Electric workshops and Radical Faerie gatherings created sacred containers for healing and connection when mainstream society offered only silence and stigma.Whether you're a young queer person seeking to understand your community's history, an elder reflecting on your own journey, or anyone interested in how communities survive collective trauma, this conversation offers profound insights about finding freedom, pleasure and connection even in our darkest hours.Jim Cartwright is a holistic life coach, author, singer-songwriter, and university professor on a mission to de-pathologize the field of speech therapy. ✨✨✨This podcast was brought to you by:ANIMA MUNDI: an apothecary composed of organic, wildcrafted, and ethically grown botanicals.
