In this episode, Jess is joined by Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan, a poet and writer whose work disrupts assumptions about history, race, violence and knowledge.
From interrogating our intentions, to moving past feeling unable to move and act at all, they explore the role of a divine gaze in our social change work. Suhaiymah shares beautifully about her faith and how it impacts her work, about her work with the Nejma collective and so much more. Finally, they land on the idea that we are all here for a reason, all have our part to play and can start wherever we are right now.
