S8 Ep 13 - From Stroke to Redress: Reggie Jackson's Journey of Healing and Advocacy

In the healing process, sometimes you have to go back to your past and address it. That's precisely what we do in this episode, as we discuss the Redress Movement, a national organization committed to empowering communities to address racial segregation. Our guest, Reggie Jackson, a historian and co-owner of Nurturing Diversity Partners, shares his journey of recovery from a stroke and how he became involved in this critical movement.

Quote: "You can't fix something if you don't know how it was broken to begin with."

~ Reggie Jackson
