you're in for a treat! Gata (she/they) is a Queer Afro Caribeña Angry Feminista, and c0vid cautious baddie with a maskie. She created the Bureaucratic baddie series of online workshops: how to file your taxes, how to sue your landlord, and how to sue pretty much any person, government agency, or corporation in the state of CA.
Gata and Tavi talk about the "still-coviding" life, intersections of race, ableism, imperialism and cultural disposability in our current reality, her work on the upcoming virtual Pandemic Solidarity For the Long Future event for BIPOC, and how collective liberation can only be brought about via dedicated community care. Gata also shares about their experience shifting from a merch-based small biz (remember "men are trash" and "femme labor is not free"?) to her current work teaching community education workshops in California and beyond.
In one of the biggest surges ever, 2,000 people are dying from Covid in the US per week right now! Wear a mask, y'all!
