gender, tech, etc.
2. Start small: sign petitions, donate, show up at local meetings
3. Find established, trusted organizations in your area. EXAMPLE:
The Harrisburg First Church of the Brethren hosted an intergenerational zoom study of
Jemar Tisbys The Color of Compromise, examining American Christianity’s racial past
