"The Raceless Gospel" podcast, now in its seventh season, offers listeners proof of a raceless future with “The Evidence of Things Unseen.” Sewing song, history, and personal memory, this is a communal crafting of collective liberation. Each episode serves as a pedagogical, healing tool and a form of Afrofuturism that stitches together, past, present, and future to create new and empowered worlds.
With unique cover art featuring coded quilt patterns, “The Evidence of Things Unseen” offers snapshots of the journey of a return home, of a reunion of one’s many selves, of the way to semantic and somatic sovereignty. This is proof that our steps are ordered, that the signs were always there, and that freedom is just beneath our feet.
And yes, there remains a need for the work of the Underground Railroad, for abolitionism, for conductors, safe houses, quiltmakers and all who know the way. Because “nobody’s free until everybody’s free!”
“The Evidence of Things Unseen” is a four-episode podcast series from us at Good Faith Media. It is an invitation to see yourself more fully for the world as we know it is crumbling and the words by which we have been known are failing us. New this season and in the spirit of the call and response tradition of the African American religious experience, the listener doubles as guest, invited to show their work and to bear witness as a new creation.
Each episode is named for what we need and must do if we are to be free of neocolonialism, patriarchy, and white-body supremacy:
Episode 1: “Visions and Dreams” captures the “freedom-dreaming” and world-making of oppressed people and the mind as a private, internal world, as a site of resilience and resistance to the “white gaze.”
Episode 2: “Steal Away” explains the importance of covert communications as signals for escape and the importance of hidden double-meanings in a surveillance state, evidenced by modern-day policing and border patrol.
Episode 3: “Follow the North Star” explores the celestial beacon and navigational tool used by Harriet Tubman as a means of re-routing ourselves away from a world of domination and “relationships of ruling.”
Episode 4: “The Underground Railroad” issues an altar call for those who would set themselves apart from the worldliness of neocolonialism and white-body supremacy and become a permanent site of resistance, embodying the evidence of things unseen.
