Episode 119: Joining a Community




Stride & Saunter show

Summary: Especially in times of shared confusion, disagreement and public unrest, it is worth considering the communities we all belong to.

How can we be more welcoming to newcomers and what should we observe and respect in the communities we join? Are we able to enact change after joining a new community?
