Motion Graphics intro created for the Building Our Own Tables podcast.

About the Podcast: A sonic journey of liberation: weaving together stories, music, and wisdom from global majority voices as we build tables of justice, healing, and love for our collective future. The Building Our Own Tables podcast supports leaders along their journeys of creation for our collective liberation. Knowing we are all one. Healing. Transforming. Medicine for those who are building our own, creating our own spaces that are healing, decolonizing, and leading from love.

This podcast stems from Yura Sapi’s experience as a multidisciplinary theatre artist, creator, and serial founder of initiatives, collectives, and organizations expanding beyond borders. Years ago, they were hearing about efforts for marginalized folks to “get a seat at the table” in decision-making at arts organizations in the United States and decided they would rather build their own table. Knowing they were not alone, they looked to the community building and oral history recording of the podcast medium, and with the support of HowlRound, the Building Our Own Tables podcast was born.
