In this episode, various voices consider self-care in the work of the henceforward. There is a discussion of self-care collectively vs. individually, Elder Jacqui Lavalley generously explains smudging, and dark sousveillance* is offered as a form of self-care.

*Dark sousveillance counters and subverts surveillance mechanisms that target Black and Indigenous peoples. For more information about dark sousveillance and its intervention into surveillance studies, read Simone Browne’s book, Dark Matters: On the Surveillance of Blackness.
