Season 2 Episode 9
Jewish Ancestral Healing Podcast
Aurora Levins Morales, in conversation with Dori Midnight, dives into the transformative power of poetry, storytelling and radical genealogy. Aurora shares of her Puerto Rican and Ashkenazi roots, her experience with chronic illness, and imagines what is possible in a world of protective reciprocity.
Aurora Levins Morales is a movement elder. She is a Puerto Rican Ashkenazi feminist and radical writer and storyteller, and an arts based liberationist since her early teens. She’s the author of eight books and is always working on several more at a time. She believes the stories we tell shape the worlds we can imagine, which is the only way we can build them. She lives on her ancestral lands in Maricao, Puerto Rico, where she tells stories of sovereignty, sustainability and climate justice with words and soil.
Aurora is a community supported artist through Patreon, where for a small monthly donation you can read unpublished writings and learn more about her work. You can also join her mailing list and get updates and excerpts of new writings here.
