What does it mean to ‘bear witness,’ why is bearing witness important for the work of solidarity and justice, and how do you do it? Join host laura brewer for an exploration of all three questions.

In this episode, we:

• Define what we mean by “bearing witness”

• Discuss how bearing witness is an essential practice for solidarity and justice;
• Name some hotspots, tensions, and opportunities for inner work to deepen our practice of bearing witness.

Welcome to a conversation about making love and solidarity through learning why, when, and how to bear witness.
