Radically loving our bodies is an act of rebellion, and our guest this week is living by that mindset.
Listen in as we talk to Luca Yacón, the founder of Radically Fit Oakland, the Bay Area's radical community gym rooted in fat liberation & joyful movement for all queer, trans, black and brown folks and allies, regardless of experience, size or ability.
In this episode we discuss what effects fat phobia, anti-blackness, and white supremacy can have on our self worth, and what tools we can use to begin to liberate ourselves and our bodies.
