Human Becoming
Human Becoming is a weekly podcast that explores the ins and outs, the good, the bad and the ugly, of what it means to be(come) human. From tackling shame to embracing our anger, this podcast aims to bring you closer to yourself - to what experiences have shaped you and your story, and how you can embrace your own humanity. This podcast is hosted by Tumi Moloto, a human (and healer) becoming, a passionate historian and storyteller, a non-binary, queer African, and a lover of humanity. In their time here on earth, they hope to show humanity that there is another way forward, that moves us away from disconnection, capitalism and collective trauma, towards belonging, compassion, and collective healing. This podcast is the story of their rumbles with the complexity of their own humanity. As they take you along on the journey of their becoming, they hope that the stories shared will give you greater insight into yours.

no more bandaid solutions: why we need nothing less than a (r)evolution of human consciousness
ever get tired of bandaid solutions?
watching humans living under capitalism is like watching someone slowly get stabbed and putting little bandaids over the wounds. at a point you just want to scream: "HOW ABOUT WE STOP THIS GUY FROM GETTING CUT?!"
but changing the systems and structures that allow for this constant cutting is not enough if we don't transform the underlying level of consciousness that allows for a world to be built that is #deathbyathousandcuts.
today's episode is a long and windy road, it feels like two friends sitting in the desert and talking about the fall of capitalism under a romantic sky. it rambles and goes in circles and I say "what was I saying?" many times. I tell stories from my younger days as an activist coming of age during the Fallist movements and how learning about consciousness has changed my strategy for enacting change on planet earth.
the key takeaway? get outside. speak to your neighbor, speak to a stranger, speak to your lover. create connections. build community. know that you can do consciousness-raising work anywhere, at anytime, and you can start exactly where you are. right now.
yours in Love.
