Fear and assumptions keep racism alive, but connection can break the cycle. SDARJ’s Joe Lawson joins Faith, Hope & Stories to talk criminal justice, education equity, faith, and the books that help us understand. 🎧 Listen now.
With the holidays approaching, this is the perfect chance to find meaningful, one-of-a-kind gifts while supporting a cause that matters. Our goal is to raise $5,000, and every bid helps fund SDARJ’s work advancing racial justice, education, and community connection across Southern Delaware.
