Community is Necessary to My Ability to Thrive (w/ Brittany Janay)
Existing in a culture that is heavy on the “individual,” heavy on the “bootstrap,” heavy on “climbing the corporate ladder, and “dog eat dog,” can have us forgetting what is true to us: COMMUNITY. In this week’s episode, Brittany Janay encourages us to unlearn patterns of individualism and REMEMBER the significance of community to our Blackness. She shares a passage from a book, “Spirituality and the Black Helping Tradition” by Elmer P. Martin and Joanne M. Martin, that beautifully describes the ways spirituality and community have influenced how we’ve contributed to our collective advancement from one generation to the next. Brittany ends with a loving reminder and affirmation that community ain’t new to us, it is true to us; and is necessary to our ability to thrive.
