6 - My Sweat is Just as Important as My Tears w/ JADE PEEK

In this week’s episode of What’s Your Safe Word? Shelleena is
joined once again by our lovely Nneka! Even more exciting though,
is that this week we are welcoming our very first guest to the
show, JADE PEEK (@KweJade /
@jadethediva)!! Jade is a Mi’kmaq and Black Nova
Scotian trans woman from Halifax. She is a multi-disciplinary
artist, curator, educator, and activist. She is known for also
being a community organizer in K’jipuktuk, Mi'kma'ki, creating
community, artistic and educational spaces and hubs, and has been
an active player in the national student movement. After our
weekly check in, our cohosts cozy up with the incredible Jade to
learn more about her life, her stance on advocacy, and why we
need more accomplices instead of allies.


This week we’re drinking Adamo Winery 2017 Whip’d White Blend. We
gave this wine a buzz rating of 3.5/5.
