Episode 167: Herstories 2023: What is your Craft? - a podcast by Florence Adu

Greetings Glocal Citizens!
This week on the podcast, rather than one last guest rounding out our March 2023 herstories series, I went into our archives with aspecific goal of putting together a salon of sorts about craft. I think of craft as how vocation, location, persistence and passion fulfill us. According to Merriam-Webster, it is skill in planning, making, or executing.I always ask this question because I feel it allows my guest to share more than what they do on a day-to-day basis for economic returns i.e. work, and gets closer to the heart of who they are and how they go about manifesting a new world. So, this week we’re re-visiting with:
Jamaican-American, Nydia Swaby (https://glocalcitizens.fireside.fm/guests/nydia-swaby) a Black feminist researcher, writer, and curator based in London about Archives, Art and Freedom Dreams;Filipino-Jamaican-American, Zee Clarke (https://glocalcitizens.fireside.fm/guests/zee-clarke) an author, mindfulness practitioner and racial healing professional about Healing in Breathing;
