In this episode of Digital Alchemy, academic sisters and political allies, Dr. Beth Richie and Dr. Dána-Ain Davis join Professor Moya Bailey for a conversation about their academic production and social justice work as it pertains to Black feminism, gender-based violence, reproductive injustice, abolition, and medical racism. In the spirit of digital alchemy, which Professor Bailey defines as “black women transform[ing] everyday digital media into valuable social justice magic”, Dr. Richie and Dr. Davis discuss how new technologies can serve as a tool to foster international community and function as an alternate space to continue learning and producing social justice work outside of the confines of academia.
