A Form of Love That Can't Be Traded For Anything

In this episode, Sophia talks with Malika about the intentionality of queerness as a politic, prioritizing platonic intimacy, dating white people, and how revolutionary it is to be joyous in a world that doesn’t always accept you and all of your facets. If you are interested in hearing more from Malika (and I guarantee you will after listening) here is where to find them: For reading Malika’s essays and just their general vibes. Highhhly recommend following if you want to read/listen to some great writing: linktr.ee/thefairygodfemme And Malika just started a new grassroots anti-capitalist org (they keep busy) called Bartering Babes, here is more info about that: linktr.ee/barteringbabes As you can probably tell, this was my first attempt at virtual recording. Hoping to make the process better in the future so audio will be better. Shoutout to Malika for being a good sport and rerecording some sections of this!
