Glenda Taylor dives deep into the complex and fascinating history of the area along the Sabine River in the late 17th and early 18th centuries in this podcast that also highlights how important it is to sit with strong opinions or judgments long enough for complexity to reveal itself. Glenda uses a story from her own family history as an example of how all our stories, including family experiences, traditions, and geography, contribute to shaping our opinions and actions. The podcast underscores the importance of listening to diverse perspectives, so that through open-mindedness and a willingness to understand complexity, we foster reconciliation and positive changes like equity, inclusion, and respect for diversity. By embracing a multiplicity of narratives, we gain a more comprehensive understanding of ourselves, others, and the world around us.
