Welcome to Season 2 of Your Pod and Your Staff. It’s good to be back! In many ways this kind of conversation feels new to College Life, but we think the events and aftermath of George Floyd’s death on May 25th demand a response, some hard thought, some honest reflection, and demand to be felt. That’s what we try to do in this conversation. Peter talks with College Life alum, Rafik Wahbi, just before he starts his Ph.D work at UCLA focusing on Public Health, addiction, and incarceration. Rafik has dedicated much of his academic, vocational, and personal life to thinking about and responding to issues of racism and justice and is a great voice to help us get our bearings in this conversation. You’ll hear Peter wrestle and ask questions and you’ll hear Rafik give historical, cultural, scientific, and theological insights into the moment. As you’ll hear, the hope of this conversation is to help College Life, and anyone who listens, see more clearly. May it be so! Enjoy the Podcast!
