This episode features part 2 of a conversation with activist, author and academic C Dreams. We dig into some of the basic pathways to learning about God, finding spirituality, navigating holy books, avoiding self-deception, and avoiding our tendency as humans to avoid critical analysis of our valued beliefs or morals.

To follow up on some of our topics, check out the following. For more about the historical journey of our current Biblical text, I suggest Bart Ehrman's Misquoting Jesus. For more about the connection between spirituality and recidivism, check out Said & Davidson's recent article in Justice Quarterly, "A Mixed Method Evaluation of the Role of Religion in Desistance and Reentry."

Check out C. Dreams' work at Filter Magazine. You can also find her on Twitter @UnCagedCritique or the GoFundMe she is sponsoring.
