Non Blacks in Black Religions

About this episode

The episode discusses the complexities of non-Black individuals participating in Black religious traditions and the role of elders in these communities.

I’m talking SPICY topics today like, how can we practice traditions that value elders when the elders are causing just as much mayhem as the youngins.. and why so many non-Black people are taking up space in Black religions when we really have no one to blame but ourselves. ..
