By The Rivers Podcast

A regular conversation on interfaith topics in the Twin Cities and beyond

Our podcast features interviews with teachers, leaders and activists, sharing their learning as we ask the big questions of, spirituality, politics, faith and our responsibility to make the world a better place. We explore holy days, we wrestle with sacred texts, and learn from each other’s traditions and beliefs. We also take the time to highlight some of the great interfaith work being done around the Twin Cities.

Anse Tamara Gray & Sarah Abe join us from Daybreak Press Global Bookshop & Gathering Space, on the University of MN campus. We discuss the power of books to inspire political activism, talk about one particular book in particular, the Qur’an, and look at the upcoming celebration of Ramadan. We also notice the ability of different faith traditions to come together around social issues,
