Changemaker Matt: "I'm blind in the eyes, but I see with my heart"

Matt discusses his personal journey through losing his vision and finding his faith. In studying Black Studies and Restorative Justice, Matt found a new purpose in helping others feel community and compassion. Finally, Matt encourages listeners to engage locally and help create a more whole and healed world. Matt Lowe is a Disability liberation theology scholar. While the majority of Matt’s work surrounds racial reparations, he had to repair his own relationship with disability. A contemplative activist, Matt enters into spaces of liminality as a community healer and also somebody still in healing. Matt identifies as a Franciscan Menicostle that tries to live a life that would make Paulo Freire proud. Take a Leap is a production of BYUradio.
