Hosted by Carla Flores, shado in focus is shado’s weekly audio series. We’ll take one article per episode from shado’s archive, for you to listen on the go.
In this collection we've handpicked some of our favourite pieces, ranging from investigative exposés to interviews and commentary on global issues, all from those with lived experience.
shado in focus will be a place for finding hope and inspiration, while also providing accessible introductions to some of the biggest issues of our time.
Join our hosts Larissa Kennedy (@larissakennedy) and Zoe Rasbash (@zorasbash), as they navigate the big issues on your feed, moving from apathy and overwhelm to collective action and hopeful pathways forward.
We’re not claiming to be experts in these issues – let’s remove the dichotomy of student versus teacher – but instead we want to take listeners on a collective journey of learning. Give it a listen and share your thoughts!










































Protect the Protest
We asked artists from all over Europe to create illustrations in response to the brief: ‘Protect the Protest’. Their responses have been collated into this interactive map to show that our rights across the continent are being infringed upon, and therefore our struggles – and ensuing movements for liberation – are interlinked.


We’ve launched a t-shirt campaign to support our work at shado.
Through buying a t-shirt, you are directly supporting shado’s radical storytelling, including:
Our mentorship programme for first-time writers
Commissioning of writers and creatives working at the frontline of social justice movements around the world
The ability for shado to amplify and support direct actions and work being done by organising groups on the ground
Importantly, your contribution will allow us to keep all of our content free: buying a t-shirt is therefore a move of solidarity which also makes you a key part of the overall radical media ecosystem. With countless independent platforms forced to close down or move their work behind a paywall in order to exist, this t-shirt is not only a chance to wear your values but also to enable us to stay independent, radical and free of charge.
Two designs featuring artwork by Fernanda Peralta and Sabrina Gevaerd. All t-shirts are available in short and long sleeved versions. Grab yours now!
