Rye's story-telling podcast, Inshallah & The Creek Don't Rise, kicked off in January 2025. You can check it out on:
Spotify YouTube Apple Podcasts Substack ABOUT Exercises in American truth-telling. After all, truth comes before reconciliation. What could truth & reconciliation look like in America? There's a lot of stories that need to be told, stories that often come from "the wrong side of the tracks." Turns out a lot of communities are in crisis. Turns out a lot of our struggles are connected. Turns out, we need each other. A lot. Inshallah & the creek don't rise, we can actually do something about that. |
