  • Good intellectual overview

    A good overview of the Visions model, and highly intellectual. Could use more “feelings as messengers” discussions. The conversation frequently lapses into the highly abstract, which creates no personal connection between speaker and listeners. It would be challenging to open a dialogue between members of historically included and excluded groups, and expand that dialogue beyond the categories of race/gender/sexuality. The Visions model is has that potential and much more to offer.

  • Insightful, comprehensive and approachable!

    This is so important! Multiculturalism and these topics within need to be discussed and here, a space is created that is contemplative and deeply honest. I appreciate the personal narrative lending to macro analysis... A MUST listen!!
