If we seem more polarized than ever, leaders at Ganondagan wonder if it’s because we rarely sit down with people who are different from us. That’s why Ganondagan is hosting an event called “Breaking Bread, Building Bridges.” It will bring together individuals from various gender, religious, and ethnic communities.
We talk to the participants about what they hope to accomplish during the event. Our guests:
- Gabrielle Hermosa, public speaker and trans woman
- Mubarak Bashir, director of faith outreach for the Rochester chapter of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community
- Lauren Jimerson, Seneca (Heron Clan), art therapist, and fine artist
- Meg Joseph, executive director of Friends of Ganondagan
