A conversation fueled by analysis and activism, all in pursuit of getting our hands dirty to achieve social liberation. We believe in the work of social healing and we believe that there needs to be a diversity of tactics to achieve social healing. We hope the Activist Theology Podcast will be one way that we can explore the work of liberation and healing justice.
(Recorded live at the American Academy of Religion)
Dr. Roberto and Rev. Anna got to spend some time together in Denver, CO during the American Academy of Religion. This event, the largest gathering of academics whose studies are centered on religion, gave us the opportunity to record several episodes with guests that we should all be paying attention to. For each of these guests, we ask them one, big question.
This episode introduces you to Steed Davidson, a native of Trinidad and Tobago, with a Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible from Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York.. They are the Dean of the Faculty and Vice President of Academic Affairs at McCormick Theological Seminary. In this conversation, we ask Steed the question "how do we read the Bible well and without harm?"

(Recorded live at the American Academy of Religion)

For each of these guests, we ask them one, big question.

Dr. Lansdowne is only the second Indigenous person to be elected Moderator, following the Very Rev. Stan McKay, who served as Moderator 1992‒1994. A member of the Heiltsuk First Nation, she was born in Alert Bay, British Columbia, and has been a lifelong member of the United Church. She is committed to an Indigenous way of being in the world. In this conversation, we ask Carmen the question "how do we include indigeneity in collective liberation conversations?"
