Also hearing from six of the Race Matter's current producers, Sara El Younghun, Toobs, Joannie Lee, Sehej Kaur, Yvonne Hong and Samantha Haran who reflect on the legacy of Shareeka, and her embodiment of anti racist community organising though radio as craft.

#194 Shareeka's Final Show

We know that what we do today is intiamtely connected with what has been done before. 

Samantha Haran and Tim Worton reflect as kinfolk on their journey with Race Matters, and expanding into their queerness.

They pay tribute to the episodes and producers that drew them into community, and challenged them into evolving and unfurling their embodiment of queerness in so called Australia, as two young queer people of colour. With reverence and gratitude to those who created space for us here: Tanya Ali, Darren Lesaguis, Sara Khan, Rhyan Clapham, Georgia Mokak & Shareeka Helaluddin.
