Funding the Flowers: Philanthropy’s Support of Our Disabled Elders with Aurora Levins Morales
In this episode, host Justice Shorter interviews renowned writer, artist, historian, and activist Aurora Levins Morales. Morales discusses the importance of funding and supporting disabled elders, who hold rich histories and perspectives that are often overlooked. She shares her "homemade theories" for getting through tough times, emphasizing the power of collectivizing struggles and sharing stories. Morales also talks about the critical work of preserving marginalized histories and preventing their erasure, calling on funders to support local, community-led projects. She expresses gratitude for the recognition she has received, while also candidly sharing her need for financial support to sustain her work and living situation. Morales' insights offer a compelling vision for how we can cherish and uplift the wisdom of disabled elders.Our podcast theme music is by Andre Louis (https://onj.me/) and Precious Perez (https://preciousperezmusica.com/).
