The Conversations We Should Be Having

By: Green Acre
  • Summary

  • We’re here to talk about race and justice in a new way. A way that does not hide from hard truths, and yet also strengthens our friendship – we’re friends. We come from what society tells us are totally different worlds, and apparently, we shouldn’t be able to talk to each other about serious issues. We’re going to stay in conversation, we’re going to stay in the room. Hosted by BLM Seacoast co-founder, Tanisha Johnson & Eliot Chief of Police, Elliott Moya. Produced by Green Acre, A Bahá’í Center of Learning.

    Sep 26 2022

    Is unity even possible? And if so, how do we get there in such a divided society with broken systems? Does it start with a conversation? Is it about taking the vulnerable position that you may not be right in what you think or believe to be true? Does it start with deep introspection? In this episode Elliot and Tanisha discuss the possibilities to the road to unity through their friendship, the podcast, and personal stories.

  • Can We Move Beyond Our Assigned Labels?
    Sep 12 2022

    Are we more than the labels put upon us by society? Is it dangerous to self-ascribe to a particular label? Are labels a help or a hinderance to our coming together? Tanisha and Elliott discuss their own labels as “Black Lives Matter Co-founder and Activist and Chief of Police”. They also speak to the larger challenges of labels as a barrier to unity or even different groups entering into a discussion.
