I had the honor in interview Dr. Frederick Leonard (Freedom Rider) and turn his story into poetry. Check it out with @VersifyPodcast – at Nashville, TN
Hear how the words of civil rights activist, Dr. Frederick Leonard still ring true, and how @Swrap transforms those words into poetry in our latest episode. #versifypodcast #nashvillehistory #CivilRights #civilrightsmovement #yourlifeisapoem #freedomsummer #activism #poetry

Whew. This first episode of Versify is amazing. And it shows that Nashville’s Diane Nash problem is larger than Diane Nash. We have all these quiet heroes just living among us, mostly unaknowledged. – at Tennessee, USA

.@BreneBrown is turning her attention ever more to how we walked into the crisis of our life together and how we can move beyond it. Our belonging to one another across every social divide, she says, can never be lost. But it can be forgotten. discover.onbeing.org/
