Listen "Your Presence Preserves"
Episode Synopsis
What if I told you that your presence—your voice, your words, your creations—literally preserves the world we’re living in right now for the future?This episode is a love note and a charge: if you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to share your work, the time is NOW. Because the truth is, your perspective is needed, your story is necessary, and your presence has the power to leave a trace that will guide generations coming after us.I talk about:⚜️ Why apathy and ambivalence creep up when it’s time to put yourself out there (and how to move through it)⚜️ How archives—formal and informal—keep us alive when systems try to erase us⚜️ A blog post that changed my life: “All of Who I Am in the Same Place: The Combahee River Collective” by Duchess Harris ⚜️ Victoria Christopher Murray’s new novel, Harlem Rhapsody, which resurrects the legacy of Harlem Renaissance giant Jessie Redmon Fauset⚜️ The newly restored release of Zeinabu Irene Davis’ film Compensation, and what it teaches us about memory, loss, and reclamationThis isn’t just about “content creation.” It’s about legacy. It’s about leaving breadcrumbs. It’s about ensuring that your ideas, your joy, and your brilliance don’t get lost in the noise.So—quit waiting for perfect. Put it out there. Preserve your presence.Stay connected:Have a question for a future episode or a reflection to share?DM @askanamazon on Instagram or email [email protected]✨ And if this conversation moves you, support the work:Buy Dr. Frazier a coffee ☕
