In this episode of Perspective, host Ted Winn talks with Damien Conners, Vice President of Promise & Impact at the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation. Damien has earned multiple degrees, including a Masters of Divinity from Princeton University. He is committed to working for social justice & sustainable positive change in communities.
During the course of the conversation Ted & Damien discuss civil rights organizations such as the NAACP & Sustainable Economies Law Center as well as current social justice movements "Black Lives Matter" & "Me Too”. The two begin with emphasizing the importance for those experiencing injustices or hardships to speak up & make their presence known to local elected officials, specifically city councils & school boards. And it becomes evident that this presence is even more crucial in light of our country’s growing plutocracy. Ted’s hopes are that this conversation may stir listeners to action & involvement while enabling them to gain a new perspective on these important issues.
