Misha in conversation with Hierald Osorto, Director of Religious and Spiritual Life Raza Ahmad, Director, Park Center for Independent Media will explore how podcasts lift-up stories of intersecting identities, defining moments, relationship with faith/spirituality, and activism. When we release those stories onto the airwaves (figuratively speaking), how do they change listeners?
This event is part of a series launched at the beginning of Spring 2020, highlighting the voices of podcast creators. Our first event began with Rabbi Emily Cohen, host and producer of "Jew, Too?".
