    As we finish out our conversation about being a good neighbor, we finish our series with Christian Gonzalez and Samai Munoz. Both women work personally with women and residents in our urban communities here in Fresno, and have the lived experience of working with people at a slower and messier pace than we would like in order to see real change. Samai is Mexican born, Fresno raised, and transformed through the power of travel, language, people, cultures and traditions. She finds herself continually learning through life experiences about radical acceptance of others and hyper-inclusive spaces. Samai is committed to evolving, self-development and growth in order to be a better family member, friend, and neighbor. Christian Gonzalez is the eldest daughter of immigrant parents. She is the Manager of Neighborhood Development She has worked both in ministry and in local place-making initiatives that build on adopted city plans, policies, and smart mobility streetscapes to encourage new mixed-use housing, businesses, public amenities, and jobs.

    A Good Neighbor is Hospitable with Simon Biasell and Nicole Castech

    Two of Fresno's conveners join us today on the podcast to talk about creating spaces and places so that every neighbor is welcome. The four talk about how hospitality is radically inclusive, invested, advocates for those whose voices aren't heard as loud, and extremely simple. This episode talks specifically about the different ways Fresno High and the Tower District neighborhoods have activated hospitality, so please enjoy and learn about what it could look like for you in your neighborhood! Simon Biasell is a third-generation San Joaquin Valley Presbyterian pastor and currently serves at the Big Red Church and Woven Coalition for Justice. Over the past two decades, Simon has worked to build radical hospitality within faith-based groups and is passionate bringing people together and mobilizing communities to dismantle systems of oppression and exclusion. He and his wife Natasha live in the Fresno High neighborhood with their two children, Paloma and Pax. Nichole Castech has lived in Fresno’s Tower/Fresno High area for six years and has called Fresno home since 2010. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Chico State and a master’s degree in Leadership and Organizational Studies from Fresno Pacific University. Active in her community, Nichole serves on the boards of the Tower Neighborhood Association and Tower District Business Association and is a member of the District 1 Project Review Committee. In her free time, she enjoys paddleboarding at Millerton Lake and exploring her neighborhood on leisurely strolls.

    A Good Neighbor Empowers with Ivan Paz and Karl Gurney

    Being a neighbor doesn't mean you just happen to live in a place! Ivan and Karl teach us today what it means to lift the head of our neighbor and empower them to change the culture and landscape of their place. The four talk disempowerment, how the ability to choose is the ultimate privilege, and that the dream that neighborhoods would be marked by equity. We learn more about Community Land Use Academy (CLUA), run by the team here at ENP. This episode is full of long term wonder for the future of our neighborhoods, and really practical advice about how to identify the positive markers in your neighborhood. To learn more about CLUA learn more here: https://everyneighborhood.org/nd/ To learn about the FresGO app, click here: https://www.fresno.gov/3-1-1/ Ivan grew up in Fresno and is a graduate of Fresno Pacific University (FPU). Ivan majored in pre-law and in religious studies (general religion). He also has a master's degree in theology and teaches a master's level course at FPU called "Forming A Community of Mercy, Justice, and Peace", where he partners theology with community organizing frameworks to help students think deeply about community and develop plans for engagement. Ivan lives in downtown Fresno with Taz Paz, an Australian cattle dog. He has been active in community development work in Fresno for over 10 years, has launched community programs, and is a member of First Presbyterian Church Fresno. Ivan loves to draw, read, and train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Karl lived in five different cities until 2014, when he moved to Fresno to work in urban ministry. He studied Environmental Science and Urban Planning as an undergraduate, which galvanized his love for living things and inhabited places. He later earned his Master’s Degree in theology before working in Catholic parish ministry. You can still find him leading music at his parish as a volunteer, but Karl is grateful that ENP allows him to weave together his passions for justice, learning, and intercultural engagement for the sake of the city’s long-term prosperity. He lives with his wife Alyssa and their cat Koestler, and loves creating things like artwork, playlists, travel plans, and hand-prepared cups of coffee.
