Continuums of Violence - a podcast by Nia Abram

CW: This episode discusses content regarding sexual violence. 

It’s time for our long-awaited episode on continuums of violence. Given we’re living through the violence of a pandemic, white supremacist fascism, and disaster capitalism, we felt it was necessary to take a closer look at the origins of the continuum of violence. May this serve as a tool for you to heal yourself and your communities, as we imagine joyful new realities for us all.
