Larger, Freer, More Loving by Matt LaVine & Dwight K. Lewis Jr.

Episode notes

Today, we’re following up with our second quickcast—this time with artists and activists of the Talking Wings Collective, Blake Lavia and Tzimu Aguilar-Izzo, who are hosting the North Country Art, Land, and Environment Summit throughout the month of September and into October. We talked about the ways that art, land, and environment intersect, especially the role that art plays in activism for the land and our environments. Following that, we discussed the importance of understanding one’s positionality when attempting to do justice work. And lastly, Blake and Tzima give some advice for young folk and the ways that young people can find themselves and aid in the justice struggle.
