On the Theory of Change podcast with Michael Igoe at @Devex, I shared why I'm taking Breaking Bread Together on the road to encourage everyone to share a meal to connect.
At @TEDxFargo, I shared my vision for a Breaking Bread tour across our great country. Now is the time to put community before politics, slow down, and truly listen to our neighbors.
The Breaking Bread Tour brought me to the Columbus Urban League roundtable with the President of Equality Ohio, Dwayne Steward, and the President of the Columbus NAACP, Sean Walton. We all have the belief that community is built by conversation and I'm grateful for this
When we're honest with each other about our history, we become stronger, not weaker. Grateful for the walk through the @bhamcivilrights with President & CEO Bowie and Education Director Woods. Racial reconciliation isn't a liberal idea or a conservative one. It's a human one.
