Finding Our Why & Radical Acts of Love with Reverend Vahisha Hasan
Listening to Reverend Vahisha Hasan one can’t help but believe we can be more and do more. We know the conversation around race is fragile and charged. In this episode, Reverend Hasan helps us understand how to approach these conversations with grace and strength. She also shares how she found her faith and how faith is the core of social action and dismantling white supremacy. We laughed, we cried, and bonus: we learn how the Care Bears can inspire us to fight for freedom.
