Episode 69.
Terrlyn was already my guest on the first episode of the year, number 58, and has returned for this Bonus episode. As such, we will focus on a topic rather than her personal faith path. In this case, we will talk more deeply about her work on dismantling racism, how that relates to DEIB – diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging – as well as the relationship between social justice action and awareness of difference. If you have not already listened to her earlier episode, I encourage you to do so, though today’s discussion stands on its own. A link to that earlier episode is in the show notes. To learn more about Terrlyn’s work and her two books, Dismantling Racism: Healing Separation from the Inside Out and Sacred Intelligence: The Essence of Sacred, Selfish & Shared Relationships, check out her social media links, which are listed below.
Highlights:
· DEIB and her focus on racism.
· Intersectionality and acknowledging uniqueness.
· Race (and religion) as proxies for bridging differences.
· Systems of oppression and regional differences.
· Using gender-inclusive language in worship.
· Questioning the assumptions of privilege and the importance of languaging.
· Being a follower of the radical Jesus and advocacy for the marginalized.
