In this episode of the Chasing Justice Podcast, Native Zuni leader Renee Kylestewa Begay, contributing author to Voices of Lament, focuses on the importance of our lament, hope, and indigenizing our faith as followers of the Jesus way. How do we seek good in our own communities in the midst of accusations that we may not be good? Renee’s experience in liberating her theology and walking alongside Native students is a gift.Renee Kylestewa Begay is from the pueblo of Zuni, New Mexico.  She is the founder and national director of Nations which seeks to build relationships among the Native American community.
