Hi Friends-

After a brief pause to recalibrate, Hurry Slowly is getting back in gear with a live show next week.

I’m going to be in conversation with Rich Mhlanga for a special edition of the podcast live on Zoom this coming Monday, July 6th from 5-6pm EST.

Rich is an incredibly talented massage therapist, who integrates many different healing mediums into his work. He’s also a good friend, who I’ve worked with for going on seven years, and someone who has been pivotal in my own journey to inhabit my body more deeply.

We’re going to be discussing what it means to be embodied in this moment: What self-care looks like in a world in which we are largely isolated from touch, how trauma lives in the body, and how he’s taking care of his body as a black man navigating these tumultuous times. We’ll be doing about 45 minutes of conversation, followed by a live Q&A.

If you'd like to attend, please RSVP below. Zoom has audience limits, so it will be first come, first serve. I will, of course, also be publishing this afterwards as an audio podcast so no sweat if it doesn't fit your schedule. : )

You can’t meditate this away. A great conversation about race, rage, and responsibilities between Dan Harris of the Ten Percent Happier podcast and meditation teacher Sebene Selassie, who I've interviewed previously on Hurry Slowly.

So y’all finally get it. Two of the smartest cultural critics in the business — Wesley Morris and Jenna Wortham of the Still Processing podcast — talk about their experience as black people processing what's unfolding in this fantastic live YouTube conversation. (Check the video comments for a black care package of links from Jenna.)

Roxane Gay in conversation with Debbie Millman. A wide-ranging conversation on insecurity between two powerhouse creative women. It touches on creative ambition, online personas vs offline personas, and what it feels like to be a cultural commentator in this moment.

Algorithm that says it can predict criminality. Algorithms like this one are why we desperately need more diversity in the world of programming and AI in particular. If we're biased, if the data is biased, then the algorithm is biased.

CORRECTIONS:

I was embarrassed to learn that the James Baldwin quote I used in the previous newsletter was misattributed. (The quote is widely attributed to Baldwin across the Internet, and I didn't go deep enough with my fact-checking.) It was in fact written by the novelist Robert Jones, Jr. Thanks to reader Julie for setting me straight. The learning continues.

SHOUT-OUTS:

The artwork is from: Ana Miminoshvili, who's based in Tibilsi, Georgia.

Link ideas from: Sebene Selassie and NextDraft.
