Faith Organizers Kelley Fox and Terry Williams talk Juneteenth, the Fourth of July, and why holidays that come without real social change are anything but holy. Kelley and Terry explore the roots of interdependence, touching on Critical Race Theory, performative gestures that come in place of liberation, and what true freedom looks like in a nation still longing for full reproductive health, rights, and justice.
