Alison Mariella Désir is an endurance athlete, author, activist, mental health advocate, the mind behind PBS’s Out and Back series, and the founder of Harlem Run, Run for all Women, and the Meaning Through Movement Tour. We had the opportunity to sit down with Alison to discuss her work and comprehensive approach to community building, how exclusionary histories inform the spaces we move through, how racialized bodies move differently through space, mental health and movement and how the past informs the present.
