New Jersey was the last northern state to abolish slavery, and you can see the impacts of that today in things like housing inequality and a massive wealth gap.

Look for Rev. Eric Dobson’s podcast “Navigating Realities: Where dialogue meets understanding” coming soon!
Then, on Shara in the City, we visit TILT Institute for the Contemporary Image, where Shara Dae Howard meets the formerly incarcerated artists behind their new exhibit, “Wherever There Is Light.”
