  • Summary

  • *This episode was recorded in February of 2022, unfortunately part 1 of this chat didn't save but I still felt it was worthy of sharing.

    In this episode I chat with Roc (founder of Rooted Resistance) as they unpack the history of sport under a white masculinist, destructive and commodifying lens. Roc speaks towards unsettling sport (using the work broadly) with how histories of land, power, identity, and colonialism interact with the earth (water, trees, soil, the air, etc.) as well as how the subjugated body interacts with structural oppression, power and privilege in sport and recreational spaces. Roc believes through understanding these histories 'the body’ can be used as a site of liberation and embodied collective healing through physical activity.
