Episode 52, week 21
Part II with Arielle. This is my last conversation for these podcasts, and I could not have had a better (smarter, more loving) person to talk with. Topics: immigration, racism, anarchy, community organizing, and how a person (of any/no color) could actually help.
-
Episode 51, week 20
Arielle and I talk about her work helping victims of domestic violence, but also of white privilege and the difficulties of teaching others to care.

Part II with Laura. We talk about the (poor) picture we Americans have of mideast countries, and the picture other countries have of us (Trump).
-
Episode 49, week 18
This week, part I of a conversation with Laura about her learning/speaking Arabic, being open to strangers, open to the world. Lovely.
-
Episode 48, week 17
Part II with Kofi. More about how to deal personally with racism. Non-violence, Brexit, complaining to God about how messed up things are. Being awake to the war, and the 23rd Psalm. I love talking with Kofi so much!

A conversation with Patrick, a wise youth of my acquaintance. Wise in youth or playful/flexible in old age: which is more rare and treasured!
