   Faithful Resistance Episode 40. Common Flame responds to racist incident in Golden.

   A recent racist incident in the city of Golden's Fire Department has a lot of people upset, including congregants at Common Flame, a UU congregation behind this Faithful Resistance podcast. Why is hanging a black doll with a noose so offensive, so much more serious than a prank? Why did it take months for the city of Golden to acknowledge the incident?
