In this quarantine episode, Niki interviews Cynthia Cervantes Gumbs, creative director and co-founder of Maroon World. As COVID-19 begins to shift perspectives around the indispensable value of childcare labor and reproductive work, Niki brings in Cynthia for a fresh perspective on what it means to be an artist, a mother, and an emerging voice in the creative world - with all identities coexisting in harmony. They discuss the myths and hangups around pregnancy and motherhood in an era of white-washed feminism and all-time-high capitalist pursuit. Most importantly, they talk through their shared understanding of how much trauma our generation has internalized from their familial unit and how motherhood/parenting may offer us a new opportunity to heal ancestral wounds.
Cynthia's work has been featured in New York Times, ID, Teen Vogue, PAPER, Vogue, The Cut, and more.
