Court Beyer (she/they) joins co-hosts Mattie Bynum and Shane Lukas bringing both heart and strategy to a conversation about queerness, humanism, and the power of community care. They reflect on growing up feeling “different,” navigating political spaces that felt transactional, and ultimately redefining their values outside traditional systems.
The episode highlights the importance of mutual aid, moral courage, and creating spaces that include both faith and non-faith perspectives. Listeners will hear how the Empathy Project is lowering barriers to activism by offering funding and tools for grassroots service work. The takeaway is clear: meaningful change starts small, grows through connection, and is sustained by people who show up for one another.
