Complexified Trailer!: It’s been a ROUGH few years. If you’re like me, you feel overwhelmed. Why can’t we keep our kids safe from guns? Why are voting rights under attack? Why can’t we even talk about abortion, gender, sexuality, or racism? How we got here is not a mystery. For too long we have avoided talking about religion and politics. But when we avoid these hard topics, we stay stuck. On Complexified, we dig into the places where religion and politics collide with real-life, - so we can make real change. I’ll talk with activists and thinkers about the issues tearing our lives up today… the end of Roe v. Wade, climate change, Christian Nationalism, attacks on trans kids, homelessness, and so much more. Complexified launches on August 11th. Join me. Follow the show wherever you listen to podcasts. And become a part of this movement to embrace the complexity of real life – and to move forward, together. This podcast is a project of the Institute of Religion Politics & Culture by Complexified
