Ep 109: Sukkot, Black Panther, and Gratitude in the Wilderness (Reprise)

The Joyous Justice Podcast

This week we’re sharing an oldie but (definitely) a goodie! Sukkot proves a rich holiday for April and Tracie's meaning-making. Together they discuss the importance of gratitude, *especially* in the wilderness, what Black Panther can teach us about Sukkot, and the holiness and sovereignty of the body.
