In part 2 of this interview Imani talks about her experience living in China, Poland, Malaysia and Mexico. She tells stories about how many of these places defied stereotypes and how warmly she was received and treated
in Poland when she gave birth there. Imani then reflects on raising her son across multiple countries and how living abroad has impacted him as a person. She also reflects on the development of her own politics of collective liberation, how she maintains long-term activist stamina, and how we can all rise to meet this historical moment despite feeling overwhelmed. Imani then talks about her current role as a co-director at “Resist” and the storytelling and communications work she does. She explains the history of the organization, their present day work in supporting grassroots initiatives, and how you can support their work. Imani then reflects on how her travel and activism are so integrally intertwined. She shares tips on raising socially conscious kids, standing in better solidarity with marginalized groups, and offers specific advice to Black and Muslim women travelers. Finally, Imani reflects on why she continues to travel and what travel means to her today. FULL SHOW NOTES WITH DIRECT LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ARE AVAILABLE HERE.
