The Witness Foundation with Dr. Shannon Polk

Surprise! We have a special episode for you today! Our guest is the Executive Director of The Witness Foundation: The Rev. Dr. Shannon Polk! Shannon is a theologian, speaker, philanthropist, and a lawyer. She speaks about the intersection of race and gender and is a leading voice in the space of Black Philanthropy.  Today, she joins our host Tyler Burns to talk about The Witness Foundation and Black Philanthropy. For those who are unaware, The Witness Foundation seeks to correct patterns of racial injustice that have deprived Black Christians and communities of material resources by identifying promising Black Christian leaders to be part of a two-year fellowship. They receive $50,000 per year of the fellowship as it makes their work for racial justice more effective. Of course, we encourage you to give to the “Will You Be a Witness?” Campaign at thewitnessinc.com and apply to the Witness Foundation Fellowship at thewitnessfoundation.co!
