Episode description

In the last few years, we’ve seen the idea of ‘radical rest’ explode - but is rest always radical? Or has it been coopted by the wellness industry to placate us?


Zoe and Larissa go back to radical rests’ roots in Black Womanist Thought and Crip Theory to understand how we actually tackle the social conditioning of toxic productivity under white supremacist capitalism. What does doing the bare minimum mean? How does resting our body-minds make space for broader economic and societal shifts?
