Today on Community Connection, in our second segment we welcome Center Township Trustee, LaDonna Freeman and Frieda Quarles, Center Township Trustee's Office Special Project Coordinator to talk about the Free Community Baby Shower and resource fair hosted by the Center Township Trustees' Office.  The event aims to provide essential items and resources to families in need and is a great example of community coming together to support one another. If you're interested in hearing more about these topics and the inspiring stories of Community Connection, tune in to this episode of Community Connection. Later we dive into a thought-provoking conversation about the role of faith leaders in speaking out against social injustices. Reverend Joy Thornton, senior pastor at Greater Saint Mark Church, shares his insights on the importance of maintaining independence as a faith leader, and not being tied to institutions that may silence their voice. He argues that pastors need to be free to advocate for their communities without being beholden to external powers.

The conversation also touches on the topic of social media and its impact on our society. Reverend Dr. Tommy Brown shares his thoughts on how social media can create a culture of delusion, where people are more focused on likes and followers than on the truth. He also discusses the importance of critical thinking and not just accepting what is presented to us, but rather questioning and seeking out multiple perspectives.
