InterFaith Youth Miami, Episode 4: Art and Religion

Welcome back to the Hybrid Podcast, everyone! We're back with IFYM for our first *zoom* podcast given the situation with COVID-19. In this virtual meeting, we spent time talking about how our respective faiths help us cope with the situation with COVID-19 and how religion can be an outlet during this very difficult time. Another outlet we discussed was art and media and how these influences play a role in religion from our personal experiences. This episode is a little on the longer side, but we hope you all take part in our discussions from wherever you may be listening! Note to listeners: This footage is raw for the most part and meant to highlight the candid nature of our conversations. A small warning, however, because it tends to get loud at times (especially with how much we tend to laugh) and there is food involved so you may hear part of that as well! Again, we hope you all enjoy it and learn even a little bit along the way. Among other events we do around the city, IFYM meets monthly and have really interesting discussions about religion, society, and growing up in the U.S through the lens of our perspective faiths and cultures.  Follow us on Instagram @ifymiami Also, join the conversation!

Stay safe, happy, and WASH YOUR HANDS! -The Hybrid
