In this episode, we share some of our experiences of being Black in White campus ministries. We discuss the increasingly popular buzzwords like “unity” and “diversity” and the impact that those ideas can have on people of color in predominantly White faith communities. Finally, we explore some of the ways in which we’ve navigated these spaces both before and after becoming more racially conscious.

In this episode, we discuss we experiences as Black people in predominantly White spaces. Some of these experiences involve racism, microaggressions, misogynoir, stereotyping, and other forms of discrimination. Experiences discussed occur within multiple contexts including our elementary school experiences, middle and high school, higher education, and within church contexts. We reflect on the ways that these experiences have impacted us and share  ideas, resources, and tools that have been helpful for us in navigating these spaces.

In this episode, we discuss the impacts of living in a culture that romanticizes and over-emphasizes the value and importance of marriage. In our experiences, we’ve seen marriage idolized in dominant culture and within the confines of the Church. We’ve also realized that much of what is so frequently sought after in marriage is an idealized version of it and often only presents one piece of what marriage truly is. We dive a bit deeper into the discussion of how this has impacted our lives and the world around us.
