New episodes are available Monday Mornings exclusively on the Vero social media app (available for iPhone in iTunes, for Android in app stores, and for desktop) and on Tuesdays here on the Red Circle and other podcast streaming platforms. Creators in COVID aims to be a catalyst for important discourse every week. This podcast will capture those pandemic stories and create a space to comfortably discuss them, with the racial and social implications. These stories are complicated by the social justice landscape that changed so dramatically during the same period of time.
It is an important time, as we begin to emerge from the pandemic lifestyle, we must capture the stories of how creatives learned to pivot and thrive in, under the circumstances, or how they simply survived the isolation and fear of the year-long ordeal. This is especially true for Black creatives and creatives of color who have statistically been the target of the virus, the racism, and also the economic fallout from the pandemic. Sezin joined Looper in June of 2019 and has been exploring her love of a variety of visual media, but in particular her most favorite horror shows "American Horror Story" and "Dexter." When she's not writing about movies and television, she tends to the endangered monarch butterfly sanctuary in her yard as well as rescuing badly wounded orchids and bringing them back to life, kind of like Hannah McKay.COVID-19 has changed the way we live and work as creatives. She released her second novel "Crime Rave" in 2017 independently. She wrote her first horror novel "American Monsters" at 20, and it finally got picked up by indie publisher Ghostwoods Books in 2011, over a decade later. A horror aficionada essentially since birth, much of Sezin's pop-culture analysis has explored the dark beauty and raw power of this oft-maligned genre as seen in her writings for Black Girl Nerds, Bitch Magazine, Wear Your Voice, Huffington Post, and more. Sezin has been working in publishing on both the writing and editorial sides since 2002, and shifted almost exclusively to writing about pop-culture in 2018 when she joined the Black Girl Nerds movie and TV review team.
