We asked a few contributors what makes a good education. The answer to that question may be clear, but the path to get it is much more complicated.

After three hours of conversation, it became clear that there are an abundant amount of inequities, concerns, questions, and needs in public education. It's a sinkhole of problems that most people care about but lack the resources to "make it right". Join Hannah in the car, and Jackie in the closet as they go #RedforED and process where to start in the Season of Solutions (SOS) for education.

Bonus!!!
We realized the season of solutions is people-centered. That's why we are not just talking about how housing affects people. We are engaging with them on it. Listen as people around our city tells us what makes a good neighborhood?

This month we dive into housing. If we had to pick an origin point for systematic racism, this might be it--housing influences education, jobs, food, health... EV.ER.Y.THING. So listen in as Jackie breaks down the problem, and then join us in two weeks for our suggestions on places to start.

This month we are tackling Health Equity, and we were lucky to hear from Dr. Mary Ojo-Carons who has recently opened EvoScient Gynecology. We invite you in to hear why she went to the trouble of opening her own practice, and what you can expect from a visit.

Fear and mistrust. Two of the many negative sentiments Americans have when facing our healthcare system and its providers. For Black people, the feelings are derived from a deep history of maltreatment dating from the time of slavery and Jim Crow.
Why is the lack of trust spreading and deepening? What do we do about it?
We sat down with Dr. Mary Ojo-Carons of EvoScient Gynecology to talk about the challenges and solutions in building trust between patients and providers.
