After years in medical practice, she had a life-changing patient who fueled not only her interest in learning everything she could about female sexual wellness but ultimately, her passion for educating women everywhere that they are not broken in the bedroom. They just didn't get a proper education (and neither did their partners).She created a podcast called You Are Not Broken which consistently ranks in the top 10 in the Apple “sexuality” category in multiple countries. It has been nominated for an AASECT award for three years running.She went on to develop online courses teaching women the fundamentals of their anatomy and physiology, discussing their limiting beliefs, and normalizing their normal female sexual function, so that they are empowered to live their best love lives yet. She has a premier, private podcast/group coaching experience, which started in July 2022 to help people create desire and agency in their intimate lives.Certified through the Life Coach School and the North American Menopause Society, she now combines her medical knowledge with mind-work to help women have more understanding and agency over their sexuality.An engaging and humorous storyteller, she is a nationally recognized speaker, known for being approachable (like your big sister who is a doctor), making people feel comfortable with these often-uncomfortable topics, and changing lives in and out of the bedroom with her practical and useful tips.She is opening The Casperson Clinic in October 2024Connect with Our Hosts and Conversation Partner!Kelly CaspersonYou Are Not Broken Podcast BookYou Are Not Broken TED TalkThe Casperson ClinicAdult Sex EDWebsite: https://kellycaspersonmd.com/ Instagram: @kellycaspersonmdJulie Flakstadhttps://julieflakstad.com/ Instagram @julieflakstad  Facebook @thejulieflakstadDr. Taz BhatiaYouTube: @DrTazMDInstagram: @drtazmdWebsite: doctortaz.comOrder The Hormone Shift book HEREPractice - Centre Spring MD: https://centrespringmd.com/ Tune in next Wednesday, 10/23, when we drop our next episode in this special (9) part series, called “Friendship Matters” with podcaster and life coach, Paige Nolan.

Warning: This episode contains stories involving child sexual abuse. Listener discretion is strongly advised. ‘Stigma' and ‘silence' are two powerful reactions when it comes to child sexual abuse, so much so that the lack of response from society has had lasting effects on victims into adulthood. In this important episode with Dr William Tantum of the University of Bristol, we discuss his recent work on the largest independent inquiry into child sexual abuse cases of children in England and Wales, while we explore the institutional failings that were designed to protect children in education and other professional environments. Working on the back of the Jimmy Savile case, which affected hundreds of children over several decades, Tantum's work on ‘The Truth Project', the ‘Network for Promoting Change', and ‘Challenging Silences' should be a reminder that regardless of the taboo, reports of child sexual abuse should never be ignored, and victims of trauma should always have a space where they are listened to and reminded that their voice matters.

Alexis and Lauren have a conversation with Julie Flakstad, speaker, writer, and founder of The Midlife Truth Project, an initiative aimed at better understanding the myriad of transitions that women face, often simultaneously, as they settle into their 40s + 50s. Having helped create and produce over 350 events, workshops, and programs over the past ten years, Julie is working on a documentary about menopause + midlife. An advocate of cross-generational learning, she is passionate about bringing women of all ages together around complex and vulnerable topics. If evolving friendships, changing family dynamics, financial security, ever-changing body awareness in the physical and spiritual sense, hormones, or sex have left you tousled, give yourself permission to be heard, reflect, laugh, and maybe even cry because that's good too. Nothing is off limits when dismantling grief, regret, guilt, or shame.

Entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart. Many Christians today prefer to avoid it because we perceive it to be too risky.Thank God our guest today, James Fitzgerald, was courageous enough to take the leap.

His story is as full of twist and turns and unexpected surprises as his productions.ColdWater Media develops and produces very high quality education media for online learning.

As a land grab/grant university, the U of MN received stolen land as investment capitol from the US Government through the Morrill Act in 1862. This is the first episode of a series with some of the leaders of the TRUTH research project.  Find out more about the TRUTH project: https://mn.gov/indian-affairs/truth-project/

Host Robert Pilot (Ho-Chunk) welcomes the core research team on the TRUTH Project.

Updated: 8:30 a.m. A massive new report details the University of Minnesota's long history of mistreating the state's Native people and lays out recommendations, including “perpetual reparations,” to improve relations between the university and Minnesota's 11 tribal nations.Among its troubling findings, the report by the TRUTH (Towards Recognition and University-Tribal Healing) Project concludes:The U's founding board of regents “committed genocide and ethnic cleansing of Indigenous peoples for financial gain, using the institution as a shell corporation through which to launder lands and resources.”The U's permanent trust fund controls roughly $600 million in royalties from iron ore mining, timber sales and other revenues derived from land taken from the Ojibwe and the Dakota.The university has contributed to the “erasure” of Native people by failing to teach a full history of the land on which it was founded.Researchers didn't put a dollar figure to their call for reparations but urged the University to do more to help tribal nations, including providing full tuition waivers to “all Indigenous people and descendants” and hiring more Native staff and faculty.Totaling more than 500 pages, the report released Tuesday marks the first time a major American university has critically examined its history with Native people, said Shannon Geshick, executive director of the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council and a member of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa.While Geshick praised the U's willingness to help unmask its past, she said the reckoning around that awful history was long overdue. “The TRUTH Project just rips that open and really reveals a narrative that a lot of people I think just don't know.” ‘We carry all of that trauma'The TRUTH effort draws on archival records, oral histories and other sources to examine through an Indigenous lens the troubled history between Native people and the state's flagship university.It launched following a series of reports in the publication High Country News in 2020 revealing how universities around the country were founded on the proceeds of land taken from tribes through the 1862 Morrill Act.That included a financial bonanza — dubbed the “Minnesota windfall” — that channeled more than $500 million to the fledgling University of Minnesota from leases and sales of land taken from the Dakota after the federal government hanged 38 Dakota men in Mankato, Minn., in December 1862, ending the U.S.-Dakota war.Following the High Country News stories, the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council called on the university to acknowledge its exploitation of Native peoples dating back to the U's 1851 founding.A team of Indigenous researchers began digging into university archives, cataloging and studying more than 5,000 pages related to the university's founding. Early on, they realized the work would be much more emotionally taxing than they had anticipated.“I remember a couple of times just sitting at a table and starting to cry,” recalled An Garagiola, a TRUTH Project coordinator and researcher who works for the Office of Native Affairs at the University of Minnesota.In the archives, “you're reading communications and policy and decisions that were made on a daily basis to commit genocide against people … millions of little cuts that we don't think about.” Tuition controversy Students urge University of Minnesota to better fund scholarship, Native American studies From February U recommends returning Cloquet Forestry Center land to Fond du Lac Band Troubling stories surface U probes its history with Native people For Garagiola, a descendant of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, the research hit close to home when fellow researcher Audrianna Goodwin came across documents showing the involvement of the University of Minnesota's extension service in relocating 36 families on the Bois Forte reservation in the mid-20th century.The names of the families weren't mentioned in the documents. But her grandmother was relocated around that same time, and “thinking then of the trajectory that that set my family on, I guess I'm still trying to process that,” Goodwin said. “That was kind of the point where I knew I had to step away from the archives, because I couldn't take in any more of that at the time.”Goodwin, a research assistant for the TRUTH Project also appointed by the Red Lake Nation as a tribal research fellow, said she felt the sad weight of a brutal history as she pored over documents.“As soon as we got into the archives, and started to read through some of these firsthand accounts of what we experienced as a people, it was really hard to read and to learn about,” she said. “You start to see the connections from the past with what we're experiencing today.”Native people have some of the highest rates of fatal overdoses from the opioid epidemic; some of the highest rates of suicide and diabetes, and of other health and social disparities.The project received additional funding to pay for a Native American grief counselor and a spiritual advisor for researchers. The Mellon Foundation, which supported the TRUTH report through a $5 million higher education racial justice program called Minnesota Transform, paid for the added support.For Goodwin, to see and touch documents detailing how Native people were dispossessed of their land provided powerful evidence of how actions from the university and other governmental entities in the early 1800s have resulted in intergenerational trauma 200 years later.“Sometimes when we were researching, we would just have to stop,” she said. “Those emotions would become so overpowering, because we carry all of that trauma and all of that pain. Hopefully with this report, we won't have to carry that alone.”‘Used as test subjects'Researchers say the TRUTH report is notable for its Native-centered, community-driven approach. Each tribe appointed a research fellow to explore histories important to their communities.For the Red Lake Nation in northwestern Minnesota, Goodwin explored the history of medical research that was conducted by University of Minnesota doctors on young Red Lake children in the 1960s.After a disease outbreak in the 1950s killed a 2-year-old on the Red Lake reservation, U researchers planned a study around a decade later in which they enrolled about 100 children to conduct kidney biopsies. During that follow-up study, a second outbreak occurred.According to Goodwin's report, U researchers concluded during the first outbreak that a shot of penicillin was a viable cure for the disease. Yet in the second outbreak, they did not share that information with local doctors, the report said. Rather they enrolled more children in their study.“Our tribal members were used as test subjects,” said Red Lake Tribal Secretary Sam Strong.A companion report commissioned by the university tells a different story. The three physicians who compiled the report said there was no evidence penicillin would have helped stop the second outbreak, and said they were unable to determine whether parents had consented, in part because the tribe refused to share records.“Not having seen the consent forms (or patient charts) used for this work, despite repeated requests, we were unable to draw a conclusion as to the adequacy of the consent process,” the researchers concluded.That approach angers Strong, who says the university failed to keep records of the research. He said the university report also ignored strong circumstantial evidence that consent was not obtained in many cases.“I was hoping for a more transparent and accountable university system. And it's really disheartening to see that they're trying to silence our voice, the harm that they caused to our community.”In northeastern Minnesota, the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa has long pressed for the return of land that's now home to the Cloquet Forestry Center — 3,400 acres of land that was guaranteed to the Fond du Lac in an 1854 treaty was later transferred to the university without consent for use as an experimental forestry station.The TRUTH report notes a frustrating reality: Band members aren't allowed to hunt, fish or gather on the land, which is located entirely within the Fond du Lac reservation. But the U profits from the land through timber sales, tuition from forestry students and recognition for its forestry research.University of Minnesota President Joan Gabel, who is leaving the U to take over the University of Pittsburgh, recently recommended returning the Cloquet center to the Fond du Lac Band, a step it says would help restore its homeland.In response to the report, the University of Minnesota made a statement Tuesday morning.“First and foremost, we recognize that the countless hours of work reflected in this report and the truth-telling that will benefit us all going forward is built upon the time, effort and emotional labor of every individual involved. We want to reiterate our appreciation for each of you.In recent years the University has committed to acknowledging the past and doing the necessary work to begin rebuilding and strengthening relationships with Tribal Nations and Native people. Openly receiving this report is another step toward honoring that commitment. While documenting the past, the TRUTH report also provides guidance as to how the University can solidify lasting relationships with Tribes and Indigenous peoples built on respect, open communication and action. As we engage in the important discussions that will now follow, that guidance will be invaluable.”‘Can't do better until people know the truth'While the TRUTH report offers a damning assessment of the university's relationship with Native people over the decades, there are also passages reflecting slow, hopeful change.Researchers, for instance, detail for the first time the recent return of a sacred arborglyph to the Fond Du Lac Band. Standing about 5 feet tall, the artifact was kept by the Cloquet Forestry Center when student researchers cut the tree down decades ago.“It is a depiction of a spirit, completely unique to our people,” Charles Smith, Anishinaabe language specialist for the Fond Du Lac Band, explained in the report. “This ancestral artifact is rare. As this artifact is studied and grows older — its cultural significance will grow.”Fond Du Lac Band leaders learned of the arborglyph's existence in 2021 when forestry center staffers reached out.“It sat in the campus for over 60 years, knowing Fond Du Lac reservation is literally down the road,” wrote Kami Diver, the research fellow for the project appointed by the band.Researchers involved with the report understand that change won't occur overnight. But Misty Blue, coordinator of the TRUTH Project, remains hopeful that the university can “move from a place of harm to a place of healing.”That's a tall order, she acknowledged; “But I think that transformation can happen.”The University has taken meaningful steps toward addressing some of their concerns, tribal leaders say. In 2021, the U created a program that offers free or substantially reduced tuition to many enrolled members of the state's 11 federally recognized tribes.Gabel created high-level positions within her administration focusing on Native American issues and tribal relations and held quarterly, face-to-face meetings with tribal leaders. But Geshick, with the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council, said a lot more could have been done.For example, she and others have called for an expansion of the scholarship program, which has been criticized for only benefiting a fraction of Native students.“It's a great start. But it shouldn't be the end,” said Robert Larsen, president of the Lower Sioux Indian Community and chair of the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council.Tribal leaders who pushed for a full accounting of university-tribal relations were fueled by a desire for more people to understand the true history of how the university was built on the proceeds of land stolen from Native people, he added.“It's not to shame or blame anybody here and now, but to put that simple truth out there,” Larsen said. “We really can't do better until people know the truth.”

Understanding Genesis As Christian parents, when we raise our kids to believe that the Bible should be the final authority of moral truth we need to know how to interpret scriptures for ourselves. This starts with the book of Genesis. What we understand about Genesis will help us better determine what the rest of Scripture says. This will give us a better chance of knowing how to glorify God. Discussing History with Del Tackett Del Tackett is a well-known biblical worldview teacher and author. He is the creator of The Truth Project and The Engagement Project. He is the host of the new feature film called “Is Genesis History.” Del wants to be known as a tour guide. A guide that takes you on an incredible excursion, the most breathless place possible; to gaze upon the face of God and to understand how his nature and character undergird all of reality. Episode Highlights: What is “Is Genesis History” actually about? Who was the target audience of this movie? Who was the creative Person of God during the creation of the world? How does Jesus' comment about divorce help support Genesis as actual history? What is the danger in accepting the premise that Genesis is allegorical? Image from Canva

Throughout history, the biblical book of Genesis was considered an accurate and reliable record, but over the past 250 years, it has become one of the most controversial books of all time. On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson and Dr. Del Tackett, creator of The Truth Project, continue discussing Del's film, Is Genesis History?, and the evidence for creation. As part of his research for the film, Dr. Tackett interviewed several field scientists and geologists who point to the fact that evidence of the Genesis flood is present throughout the world.

Genesis 1:1 says, In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Sadly, a large percentage of the Christian community does not believe that Genesis is true history. On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson and Dr. Del Tackett, the creator of The Truth Project, discuss Del's documentary film, Is Genesis History?, and examine the scientific evidence for creation. They also review the most important biblical truth: that just as sin and death entered the world through one man, Adam, salvation and God's grace came through one man, Jesus Christ.

The federal government's hanging of 38 Dakota men from a Mankato, Minn., gallows in December 1862 brought an end to the U.S.-Dakota war. It also triggered a financial bonanza for the University of Minnesota. Dubbed the “Minnesota Windfall,” sales and leases of parcels taken from the Dakota raised nearly $580,000 for the young university — part of a massive grab of wealth cleaved from Native people and given to American universities. That troubling piece of American history remained largely hidden until two investigative reporters began digging into how colleges benefited from the Morrill Land Grant College Act of 1862, signed into law six months before the Mankato hangings. The University of Minnesota is now broadly reviewing its treatment of Native people going back to its founding in 1851. Researchers with the TRUTH (Towards Recognition and University-Tribal Healing) Project are expected to release a report this summer.  What's come to light so far suggests that history will be painful to read. Kerem Yücel | MPR News Audrianna Goodwin, poses for a portrait outside Elliott Hall, at University of Minnesota. ‘Almost unbelievable truths' Coming just weeks after the Mankato executions, the “Minnesota Windfall” was especially egregious, said Tristan Ahtone, who along with fellow High Country News reporter Robert Lee documented millions of acres granted to universities that were taken from Indigenous people in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. “We had found about nearly 11 million acres of land that originally belonged to Indigenous tribes and communities acquired by the United States through about 250 different treaties, many of them outright land seizures, many of those treaties backed by violence,” said Ahtone. “Those lands had basically been divided up for 52 universities.”  High Country News revealed those land grants raised almost $18 million for university endowments, with unsold lands valued at more than $5 million. Adjusted for inflation, that land would be worth about $500 million today. “When it comes to higher education, the Morrill Act in 1862 provides the receipts for how the modern public university system in the United States was founded and how it was funded through the selling of Native land,” said Nick Estes, a professor who will join the University of Minnesota in the fall and whose ancestors were exiled to South Dakota following the Dakota conflict. The TRUTH Project offers the U and other universities a chance to reflect on that history, he said. The project includes fellows appointed by tribal nations, University of Minnesota graduate researchers and faculty who've spent the past year conducting research to better understand the relationship between the university and tribal nations. “We're talking about a lot of really sensitive things. Intergenerational trauma, secondary trauma, almost painful, almost unbelievable truths that the University of Minnesota was involved in with our community,” said Audrianna Goodwin, a master's degree candidate and TRUTH Project researcher appointed by the Red Lake Nation who's examining the University of Minnesota Medical School's study of children with kidney disease at Red Lake in the 1950s and 60s.  Researchers are also examining issues including the return of human remains and funerary objects held by the university, and the legacy of a boarding school on what's now the University of Minnesota campus in Morris., Minn. The work offers the university a chance to understand its impact on tribal communities, said An Garagiola, a Bois Forte Ojibwe descendant and graduate student researcher helping to lead the TRUTH Project.  “This is an opportunity for the university to recognize the disastrous impacts its formation has and continues to have on our communities. And to look for ways to not only improve relations with Indigenous people,” Garagiola said. “But to also recognize the role that it's played in things like the perpetual opportunity gaps in education and housing — all of that is directly correlated to land dispossession.” The project, she added, is “a lot bigger than any of us anticipated when we started.“ Kerem Yücel | MPR News An Garagiola, poses for a portrait outside Elliott Hall, at University of Minnesota. ‘Reconciliation way, way down the road' The TRUTH Project‘s report this summer is likely to unearth more pain, although those connected to the research see it as a path to healing.  In a presentation last May to the university's regents, Karen Diver, special advisor on Native affairs for university president Joan Gabel, addressed the potential impact of the TRUTH Project. “This is actually really groundbreaking. A true part of reconciliation is really allowing people to have that space and time to speak their truth,” Diver said, adding that she hoped “for healing and for a resetting of the relationship, so that we can start to clear that plate and look forward to more meaningful relationships that aren't clouded by the things left unsaid.” Tadd Johnson, a member of the Bois Forte Ojibwe, led the TRUTH Project in his roles as a professor of American Indian Studies, director of graduate studies at the University of Minnesota Duluth and senior director of American Indian Tribal Nations Relations before recently retiring from the U. Derek Montgomery for MPR News Tadd Johnson, professor emeritus at the University of Minnesota Duluth, talks about the TRUTH Project on June 21 at Cina Hall on the UMD campus in Duluth. He said when he began meeting with tribal leaders on these issues a decade ago, there was no relationship between the university's leadership and Minnesota's tribes. “They said, ‘Why don't we know who the president of the University of Minnesota is?' and ‘Why don't we know anything about the regents?” he recalled. For him, the TRUTH Project is an opportunity for Gabel and the regents to listen to concerns raised by tribal officials and communities. “Reconciliation is way, way down the road,” said Johnson. “What we first need to get is the Native American perspective on their relationship with the University of Minnesota.” Correction (June 30, 2022): A previous version misidentified Elliott Hall in photo captions. The captions have been updated.

This is Minnesota Native News. I'm Marie Rock. Coming up…At the University of Minnesota, a $5 million grant is funding projects to address racial justice... with the aim of leading social and cultural transformations. One project examines the University's history with the state's Tribal Nations. Here's reporter Feven Gerezgiher with more. In the wake of a racial reckoning and thirty years after the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council first asked the University of Minnesota to repatriate American Indian human remains, the Council in 2020 passed a series of resolutions demanding “a truthful historic accounting” of the university's impact. Two high level people are working to make this happen from within the University. Last year, UofM President Joan Gabel hired Fond du Lac member Karen Diver to her senior leadership team. Professor[1] Tadd Johnson, member of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, serves as liaison between the UofM system and Tribal Nations. Johnson says the U has to contend with its grim founding story. The University of Minnesota benefited from the genocide of Native American people, and kicking them out, and actually killing them, hanging them. And granted, there were people that were killed on both sides of the Dakota War, but it was the Dakota that had to pay. So to me, Minnesota has a special obligation because I mean, there's some shame in having the largest mass execution in American history and then the U of M ended up benefiting from it. The project is called the Towards Recognition and University-Tribal Healing or TRUTH Project. It is led by research fellows from and selected by each Tribal Nation so the University can reckon with how it has harmed and continues to harm each sovereign nation. The[2]  Ojibwe up north are saying, “Hey, you took the DNA of our wild rice and put our wild rice businesses out of business.” And the Dakota are saying, “Hey, you took all of our land and sold it, and kicked us out of Minnesota and made a ton of money to endow your university.” The TRUTH Project is funded through a larger system-wide initiative called Minnesota Transform that was established through a $5 million grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Minnesota Transform seeks to make changes for the region's Black, Indigenous, immigrant, and refugee communities. In addition to the TRUTH Project, it supports access to UMN Dakota language classes for community members[3] and creates Ojibwe language immersion housing for students. An Garagiola is a research assistant with the TRUTH Project. Boozhoo, An indizhinikaaz. My name is An. I am a descendant of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, where my mom and my grandma are enrolled members.  Garagiola said part of the research has been delving into the impact of the 1862 Morrill Act and other land grabs. So often the narrative that we hear about land grant universities or the founding of land grant universities is this positive spin, as you know, this was for the betterment of the country, right? For the public good, if you will. But we don't really talk about who the public is or whose expense that came at. According to data from High Country News, the U.S. government bought Dakota land in one treaty at $0.02 per acre. In contrast, the University of Minnesota sold those lands for $5 per acre, or 251 times that amount[4] . Garagiola points to the U's far reach in the state - from education to the business sector - as reason why it should lead this work. She says many professionals are unaware about sovereign rights or consultation policies for Tribal communities[5] . I think that the university has a great responsibility, one, to teach everybody, Native and non-native, the accurate truth, and to prepare them to go out into their future careers accurately informed. And more broadly, the University has a responsibility to Indigenous people because of the anti-Indigenous policies that were created in order to found the institution.  The TRUTH Project's report is expected to be released in June. Garagiola said Tribal research fellows will hold a symposium in April to share their research with community and get final feedback before its release. In the meantime, the UofM Board of Regents recently voted to return artifacts belonging to the Mimbres people. For Minnesota Native News, I'm Feven Gerezgiher.    Senior Director of the Office of American Indian Tribal Nations Relations for the university system."What the tribes' request was to look at the past, present, and future of the University of Minnesota's relationship with the tribes of Minnesota. And so.."reduces the cost of language classes for community membersThe U and 32 other universities enriched their endowments with these massive land transfers.We have, you know, people going on to be doctors, lawyers, politicians, who have no idea about the sovereign rights that Native Americans hold, or what it means to go into consultation policies, or when consultation policy should be enacted, or the unique political place that Natives hold, you know, as a category rather than a racial category, which I think a lot of folks just see it, as, you know, because they don't know.

On today's MinistryWatch EXTRA episode, we have Dr. Del Tackett.  Del Tackett served more than 20 years as an officer in the US Air Force.  As a top executive at Focus on the Family, he created The Truth Project, a worldview program that has been seen by more than 20-million people in more than 100 countries.  Many people say that The Truth Project was their first exposure to a Christian worldview. I wanted to have Del on the program because he has had 50 years in leadership roles, with at least 30 of them in the public eye, including a stint as senior vice president of Focus on the Family one of the largest Christian ministries in the country.  With all the scandals we have seen recently, I wanted to talk to one of the “wise men” of the evangelical church to find out why and how we can keep these scandals from recurring. But we began our conversation talking about his latest endeavor, called The Engagement Project, which in some ways picks up where The Truth Project left off. A quick reminder that my book Faith-Based Fraud is now on sale to the public.  We now have hardback, paperback, ebook, and audio book versions available  You can find them by going to Amazon or other online book retailers.  I hope you'll get a copy today. The producers for today's program are Rich Roszel and Steve Gandy. We get database and other technical support from Cathy Goddard, Stephen DuBarry, and Casey Sudduth. Thanks to my friends and former colleagues at The Colson Center for Christian Worldview who provided studio space in Colorado Springs for Del Tackett to record this interview. Until next time, may God bless you

The T.R.U.T.H. Project is a non-profit in Houston that works to educate and mobilize LGBTQ+ communities of color and their allies, with resources that promote mental, emotional and sexual health through the arts. The group's founder, Kevin Anderson, recently received a grant to produce a new digital documentary entitled, "Black Boy Symphony." Shot at the Deluxe Theatre in Houston's historic downtown 5th Ward, the film explores the lives of several gay men of color in the wake of a global pandemic. Brave Black men of varying ages reveal plenty about their authentic selves and the challenges they face, including racism, homophobia and marginalization. Host Eddie Robinson chats with Anderson, the film's creator, along with one of the men featured in the movie, John Nicklos, in a deeply moving discussion that's bold, provocative and unguarded.

These things can make it hard to know what to hold onto and what to let go of. So, what is truth? How do we define it? Is there one truth for everyone? The next two episodes explore the difference between Biblical and secular definitions of truth. Joining us is Wayne Asprodites, the Pastor of Destiny Worship Center in Panama City Beach, FL.
