Missing Witches
Risa Dickens + Amy Torok
Missing Witches is created by Amy Torok and Risa Dickens: old hag solitary witch best friends living, writing, and recording out in the woods on unceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory, in Quebec, Canada. Missing Witches is an art and activism project and a public research project. We come from a place of longing and of curiosity. We want to learn from artists, poets, academics, activists and magical practitioners who are conjuring better possible worlds.

WF LITHA 2021 Earth Bound Futures: QUEER The Heroes Journey and Find Your Inner Ally
For solstice and as a celebration of STRENGTH this Litha, we spoke with Tanya and Skye of Earthbound Futures. Honestly it took me forever to edit because I kept writing down astonishing things they said. Here are a few:
Something I am learning from disability justice advocates is that there’s no healing for me if there’s not healing for the larger systems in the world... That’s the queering of the hero’s journey for me. I don’t want to fight something. I want to get together with other people and creatively destroy the systems and the structures that are keeping the world inaccessible and keeping us sick and making us sick.
...
I feel like I’m trying to get in touch with a body that society has tried to make me dissociate from in so many ways. Growing a beard at 11 was so confusing. It was such a big secret, a secret that I’ve been holding on to, I was 32 when I started growing my beard and when I did that I feel like I unlocked all my queer ancestors. Be who you are. Smash that binary. I’m a bearded woman, I embody both energies. The Missing Witches coven is trans-inclusive, anti-racist, feminist,
pro-science, anti-ableist, and full of AWE and LOVE.
