Description
Join us for a beautiful conversation with Astera (she/they) about diaspora, preservation, and the significance of language - especially Ladino ❤️?
Astera brings light to how powerful preserving language - like Ladino - and culture are, as ways to engage with art and continue creating art, and as ways to push back against zionism and other settler colonialism.
You can listen to Astera’s podcast HERE, read their poem we talk about HERE, and read their article we mentioned HERE.
If you want more of their poetry, it’s HERE. She also plays piano HERE and has a mixed media IG HERE. Also, stay tuned because they will be published in Lilth Magazine this fall! ?
The song Jessie mentioned can be found HERE.
Join us for our next episode with @annarajagopal, they/she, a South Asian Jewish writer and poet anchored in Houston, Texas.
As always, s/o to Nate for our podcast music!
