  • How To Support Our Unhoused Neighbors with Kevin Nye

    How should we talk to people about homelessness? How can we be good neighbors to the unhoused folks living in our communities? In this episode, Benji and Tori talk to author and activist Kevin M. Nye about the work he's been doing to talk to Christians about ending homelessness, and how we can advocate for change in these times.

  • Solidarity Between Black Folks and Latino People?

    This week Benji and Tori are talking about the importance of interracial solidarity in the face of rising fascism even when our "teams" don't always see eye to eye. And we're asking the question, whose responsibility is it to hold the line? And who is at risk when we decide to throw away our compassion and just stop caring about the well-being of our neighbors? (Hint: it's you. You're at risk.)

  • Black History! Loving v. Virginia

    We hold this truth to be self-evident: the US government lacks the moral authority to dictate who can and can't get married. But like, how did we get here? This week we're talking about how Black folks convinced the government to let us marry whoever TF we want AND helped lay the groundwork for marriage equality across the board. Turns out, our liberation is all tied together.
