When The Organization You Love Betrays You

When The Organization You Love Betrays You Let’s talk about institutional betrayal. Safe to say many of us have experiences with interstitial betrayal. Like when an institution says one thing but does another. Or maybe having certain requirements initially that change when certain people want to gain access. Or making certain promises that look good from the outside that might be a bit different once you get inside. Should we just be done with institutions all together or is there a better way forward? That’s the topic on this week’s Pass The Mic. Jemar Tisby and Tyler Burns are recording in front of a LIVE audience at the Temple University’s Center For Anti-Racism in Philadelphia, PA on this week’s Pass The Mic Podcast.
