What this episode covers
The Rev. Dr. Marcia Ledford, is a practical theologian and Episcopal priest, native to Detroit, Michigan. Dr. Ledford worked as a civil rights attorney for over 30 years, including as an ACLU co-operating attorney on constitutional matters, prior to her ordination. She advocates for the administration of the sacraments (Holy Eucharist, Baptism, and Holy Unction) and public pious practices (like stations of the cross and asperges) to empower progressive Christian political theology in the public square. Ledford exhorts progressive Christians to exercise their First Amendment guarantees, as part of a collective interfaith voice, calling for more compassionate approaches to our social crises. She is an award-winning documentary photographer and specializes in fine art portraiture, and she has completed Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) community organizing training. ------ This conversation is for anyone who's been grappling with accepting who they are and living in their faith. We talk about not everyone and every place will be safe for those of us who are marginalized and how we need to find our people and create full lives where we are accepted, valued and loved.
