107: Friendship and race with Marci Duncan and Kerry Sandell

Friendshipable

From Project BFF HQ, Terri and Manya riff on the topic of how to talk about race with friends, with special guests Marci Duncan and Kerry Sandell, authors of the play Dissonance.
We discuss how these two friends first started having conversations about race, how to broach a difficult topic with a friend, rather than tiptoeing around it, and how to approach these difficult topics with curiosity. We also touched on why it's important that we are willing to be vulnerable with our friends , that we create a safe space for each other to be vulnerable, and that we seek to understand each other, not win an argument.

Marci J. Duncan and Kerry Sandell are Florida-based emerging playwrights with fresh, powerful voices and a desire to bring love and light to historically difficult and emotionally charged conversations. We are professional actresses with extensive performance experience in theatres across the South and East Coast.

Thank you for listening.
After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to shut down Project BFF and the podcast. Our last podcast episode aired on August 23, 2024. We are leaving the podcast live on Buzzsprout through the end of 2024.
We are proud of this podcast and honored to have hosted such amazing and engaging guests.
Our hope is that Project BFF and Friendshipable have inspired you to form new friendships, strengthen existing ones, and encourage others to do the same
Thank you for being a part of our story. The two of us have truly deepened our friendship during this time, and we look forward to new and memorable adventures together in and around New England, which serves as the adopted home for both of us.
With gratitude and friendship,
Manya and Terri
