Episode 26 – Meditating on the Elsewhere

In November 2017, Indigenous and Black community members, scholars, and activists gathered at the University of Toronto to discuss getting elsewhere.   In the spirit of The Henceforward, the elsewhere is lived and created today, as well as a realm of unknown possibilities. Members of the gathering created guided meditations that take us on a walk-through future-day 125th Street in Harlem and invite us to visit places we yearn for.   We invite you to listen closely, perhaps close your eyes, and travel with us into the elsewhere.   Contributors, in the order their voices are heard:   Sefanit Habtom Marie Laing Karyn Recollet Eve Tuck Zoe Samudzi Mistinguette Smith Sandi Wemigwase Susan Blight Chelsea Vowel Shay McLean Andrea Derbecker Stephanie Latty Fikile Nxumalo Danielle Cantave
