‘GoBack AirGo Listening Club

As AirGo hits ten years (!) of vibrant conversations documenting our movements toward liberation, here’s your chance to hop into the convo with us and join our new monthly ‘GoBack Podcast Listening Club and Popular Education series!

So what exactly does a Listening Club entail?

Similarly to a book club, each month, we’ll gather in virtual community with y’all to break down an episode from the AirGo archives. We will spend time connecting the media text to the discourse of today - while envisioning new strategies for what comes next. Over this past decade, we’ve been privileged to learn so much from brilliant thinkers, changemakers, creators, and visionaries –like Angela Davis, Mariame Kaba, Bill Ayers, adrienne maree brown, Jamila Woods, and many more – about how to move through the tumult and transformation of our time.

We’re excited to activate this archive as a tool to learn together, skill up, and help us create learning resources for the whole AirGo/Respair ecosystem!
