On this episode we discuss how voting is being mobilized & discussed within our communities as we approach Election Day. We also dive deeper into the influence of Womanist Theology & Black Liberation Theology on our lives & how they shape our work in theologically conservative regions. The question we consistently ask is, "How do we make sure that ALL Black lives are sacred in Higher Ed & Beyond?" #EndSARS

We finally launched a podcast! At the beginning of the semester we sat down to discuss our vocational work on college campuses, the ways that we are encouraging students to care for themselves this semester, and the healing practices that we are finding useful as we seek to ground ourselves in the year that is 2020. We would love to hear about the self care strategies that have been helpful for you as well!
