On the May 2026 edition of the Art in Action interview series we hear from artist Amanda Gutiérrez. Amanda speaks about sound walk collaborations with collectives across the hemisphere, particularly in Latin America.

Amanda brings an intersectional critique to the experience and practice of sound walks with a look toward expanding space within that specific cultural practice to include an understanding of other experiences in the city, particularly surrounding how racialized women live and experience urban spaces.

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Brazilian bookshop owner and content coordinator Pedro Gama who speaks on climate justice voices and Livraria Travessia in Belém, Brazil. This interview was recorded right after the UN Climate Summit took place in Belém in fall 2025 and it offers an interesting and critical insight into the role that bookshops can play is presenting counter-cultural voices within the context of moments of protest and political debate around the realities of climate justice and the inequities that define who is most impacted.
