Love Thy Neighbor
In our frenzied, divisive world, how often do we pause and listen to one another? Inspired by the commandment of Jesus Christ, this podcast series is intended to broadcast the stories of People of Color and White Anti-Racism Advocates so that listeners can truly learn to “Love their neighbors”. Racism, stereotypes, micro aggressions and bigotry are still alive and thriving; hopefully outlets like this will dismantle these societal and individual problems. Please leave feedback/ratings below, and if you’re interested in being interviewed, contact Jessica at lovethyneighborseries@gmail.com
