Becoming one with it
Episode 84
Monday, 3 November, 2025
In this episode, host Madam Neverstop engages in a deep conversation with Blacqwildflowr, an award-winning poet and performance etiquette instructor. Blacqwildflowr recently traveled from the US to Denmark to participate in the Nature & Culture: International Poetry Film Festival, where she joined us with her poem in the film Vibrant, directed by Dev Thompson. In Vibrant, Blacqwildflowr's performance intertwines personal and collective narratives, addressing themes of grief, Black boyhood, queerness, and the complexity of identity within a society that marginalizes softness and vulnerability. She reflects on her process of writing and performing the poem, as well as the significance of watching the film live for the first time, struck by the resilience and strength we embody through adversity and pain. Throughout the conversation, Blacqwildflowr discusses the challenges of navigating life as a Black, queer woman in the United States, and how embracing her identity and using her voice have become acts of resistance and empowerment. Her work, both written and performed, continues to inspire others to confront societal injustices while embracing their authentic selves. Listen now across all podcast platforms!
