Episode 59: Kindling with Shira Hassan

The Lit Review Podcast

The healing justice movement is an intersectional and organized resistance to the state and state violence, but why is it so often misunderstood as simply an opposition to grind culture? In this episode, we discuss ableism, disability, healing justice, and the book Kindling by Aurora Levins Morales with one of our sheroes and teachers, Shira Hassan, co-founder of Just Practice and former Executive Director of the Young Women’s Empowerment Project. This is a rich episode with so many gems of wisdom and raw vulnerability. It’s one to listen to again and again (and again)! Listener's Note: This conversation includes mentions of sexual violence and abuse. Please listen with care. Transcript and key questions explored in this episode can be found at thelitreview.org.
