    WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
    ​​Listeners will be inspired to reflect on their own stories and what calls them to the work of social justice.
    EPISODE SUMMARY:
    Most of us don't just wake up one day and say "I'm going to fight for social justice." Likely, the notion to stand up for others, to empower one another, and to be concerned for humanity has been a spark or flame within us for years. At times, it can feel like we were born with this drive. Perhaps, it is innate. Perhaps, it is something that has been nurtured by others. Join Rev. Dr. TLC this week as she reflects on what made her who she is and what calls her to the work of racial equity. As we enter Women's History month, she will share some of the lessons that she learned from her biggest hero, her mother, Elmira Curry.

Sekou has helped trained over ten thousand clergy and activists in militant nonviolent civil disobedience through the United States.
    Rev. Sekou’s music is world renowned and critical in the journey to dismantle racism. He says, “When people see me in concert, I pray they come away a little freer.” His concerts and songs of freedom have been described as “one-part protest rally, one-part Pentecostal tent revival, and one-part late night juke joint.”

    WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
    The audience will gain a perspective on how the word "race" perpetuates racism and it should be taken out of our vocabulary.
    EPISODE SUMMARY:
    Most of us know that race is a social construct, but are we aware of its original intent and how the creation of this category contributes to current day racism? The use of race influences the outcome and treatment of individuals in areas such as real estate, specialized skill positions, social situations, educational endeavors, finance, medical, law enforcement and more.
    Join Rev. Dr. TLC, as she talks with her guest, Ricky Wade, cofounder of the American Redneck Company. They will address some of these issues as well as his Rehumanization Efforts and Projects which are aimed at educating old and young to transcend their thought processes regarding race and to view fellow human beings as human.

    Cross Racial Solidarity

    Thursdays 11:00am - 12:00pm (EDT)
    WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
    The audience will learn how white antiracist leaders of the past can inform present day activism by people who are white. 
    EPISODE SUMMARY:
    Dismantling racism requires mobilizing masses of white people to get involved and stand up for racial justice. Lynn Burnett believes that if white people understood their own history of advocacy and activism, they would be inspired. He believes that the knowledge of white antiracists in history can help to raise a white antiracist generation and support their commitment to antiracist practices. 
    Join Rev. Dr. TLC and Lynn as they discuss the power of story in building antiracist culture and community and why it’s important for people who are white to lift up and learn from their antiracist elders. They will also discuss how the erasure of white antiracist history facilitates white supremacy and how to engage with white antiracist history without slipping into white centering and saviorhood.
