BONUS: Religious Freedom Panel with Heather

Join Heather in talking with fellow podcasters Robert Monson, Zaiba Hasan, and Samuel Gay. Robert Monson Jr. is a writer, musician, creative, avid reader, and theologian who does work around the intersection of Black liberation and womanist theology. He is a graduate of United Theological Seminary and is currently working towards a Ph.D. His two podcasts, Three Black Men and Black Coffee & Theology, along with his work as co-director of the organization Enfleshed seek to bring about thought around liberation for all. Zaiba Hasan is an American Muslim, born and raised in Chicago. Growing up biracial and bicultural, Zaiba’s Irish/Pakistani heritage and interfaith upbringing gave her a head start navigating between identities. When she isn’t busy with podcasting, public speaking, fostering interfaith community, or working with her parent coaching clients at Emerge Consulting Solutions, Zaiba can usually be found on the basketball court or baseball field with her husband and their four children. Sam Gay is a writer, theologian and cohost to Three Black Men Podcast. Sam has been a dedicated youth pastor and musician who has yielded his talents to local congregations. He holds a B.A. in digital cinematography from Full Sail University and an A.A. in Biblical Studies from Reformation Bible College.
