This podcast features special guest Dr. Drew Hart.

Drew has three focuses that he believes are essential hallmarks of “winning” in the struggle against white supremacy in America:

Public Witness:A Christian public witness rejects the temptation to privatize our faith to only matters of the heart. We are called to embody and make visible God’s reign on earth and to speak truth to power.
Solidarity:Christian solidarity must be Jesus-shaped. We identify and stand with those that Jesus did in his own day. We gladly link arms with those that are impoverished, vulnerable, oppressed, and marginalized. How we receive “the least of these” is how we receive Christ.
