About this listen

 Everything is connected. Not in a conspiracy theory way, but in the way that identities and social circumstances collide to create unique experiences. Underneath it all, we are connected by our humanity and our need to escape the things that crush us and find our way to collective freedom. The show examines different intersections of identity, social conditions, policies, mental health and neurodivergence and advocates for coming together to make the world better. We're on the journey to create a better world. When you reach the intersection, turn left. Support via https://patreon.com/atitlZoe John-Kay Social Sciences
