Welcome to the last installment of MIND YOUR BUSINESS. This week we're coming at you with a conversation on COMMUNITY. What is a community? How is it different from a scene or a society? A scene is common identities, a community involves kinship. We talk about how community is a gamble, a necessary part of feeling recognized as a person, but also risks erasing our individuality. We see communities both as toxic and the place where we search for care.

For many of us, community is the place where we have revelation, take political resistance, and learn how to heal from our interactions with the rest of the world. Still, particular communities are what are causing us injuries as QTPOC, both internally and externally. We get introspective of being there for our own communities and needing to step up!

We also get up on the distinction between local communities and online communities, how they relate to each other, and how we should be engaging in both. We globalizing community so we can act locally and in concert! But speaking of community, we catch up a bit on Burna Boy and our talk in Rotterdam (unfortunately unrelated…). ENJOY Y'ALL.
