Exploring the relationship of how we are both shaping and being shaped by our surroundings through embodied conversations with artists and thinkers, the Worlding Podcast expands our awareness of our more-than human surroundings and traces interpersonal connections by inviting each guest to recommend an important person for them to be interviewed next, similar to a string figure. Hosted by dance artist Renae Shadler, this show has an organic life of its own and tends to meander in unpredictable and unexpected ways.

Ep #2.3 Reparations and Response-ability | Worlding Podcast

How can you move, if you are separate pieces?
What needs to happen to initiate and enact a response, a movement?
What needs to be gathered?
Julia Metzger-Traber is a mother, dance artist and community process facilitator who is based in Virginia (USA) where she works and lives as part of a community project and farm called The Rhizome.
Julia reflects on the African American people who tended the lands that The Rhizome is built on, the people who were enslaved by the British and brought over against their will, the people who are now the deep listening stewards of the land.
Julia and Renae discuss the messy and sometimes even delicious details of reparation work as well as the feminist ethic of ‘response-ability’ which is not so much about imparting duty or moral obligation as it is about cultivating the capacity for response. Response-ability as a relationship, a deep listening and coming into dialogue to be able to then move into response.
