#10 Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr.: Racial Justice, Youth Empowerment, Climate Change, and Faith What Could Possibly Go Right?

    • Society & Culture

President & Founder of Hip Hop Caucus, Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr., brings his perspectives on racial justice, youth empowerment, climate change, and faith to the big question of “What could possibly go right?” His insights include:
How young people are communing with their spirituality and are using it to focus their fight for justice.How the current state of the country now is akin to a heart attack for someone who has been ignoring the things that make themselves healthy.How we've been investing in things, not to bring us together, but to tear us apart.How the current urgency and passion in the racial justice movement is driven by understanding that if we don't get it right now, it'll have disastrous effects moving forward.How it isn’t the change but the transition that can throw you for a loop.How the first thing to do in this “healing crisis” is to realize what got us to this point and to work through that pain of awareness. How we cannot do the work regarding climate justice if it doesn't have a racial justice framework.Connect with  Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr.
