I spoke to Alabama based activist Sav Miles. Miles is an activist and friend of Taylor Adams( Episode 172). Sav is a graduate of Harvard University and is interested in looking at the root cause analysis of social and systematic inequality . Miles takes a faith centered and people centered approach towards their social advocacy. Much of their work is focused on how to help communities build social autonomy to help eliminate bigotry and other forms of inequality. In today's episode we discuss social psychology, organizational dynamics, transformational justice and percieved interedependence theory and how it relates to activism today.

Note* In our conversation I used Kubler Ross to describe change and I meant to refer to the Kotter's Model of Change.
