Politics of Pleasure

2 days ago

What makes pleasure political? Well it’s simple, pleasure is revolutionary. Strap in (or strap on) as hosts Nia Abram and Desiree Jaha bridge the gap between the political and the personal, exploring topics of race, sexuality, gender, body, spirituality, and more. In a society determined to spread dominance and oppression, this show provides us with one antidote: pleasure. Tune in biweekly for moisturized conversations, pleasure-centered postulations, and the revelation of having a good time.
