Ken's guest this week is Emmy award-winning writer, producer, director, and documentary filmmaker, Linda Midgett. This is her second appearance on the podcast. We talk about her new Facebook Live Series, What's At Stake? Her guests have included Larycia Hawkins, the subject of Linda's award-winning film, SAME GOD, David Gushee, Kristin Kobes Du Mez and the high profile cable television commentator, Kirsten Powers. With the Presidential Election is just a few days away, we discuss what's at stake - and Ken reads a blog post that speaks to that question. SHOW NOTES.

Linda Midgett is the director and producer of the documentary film, Same God. She tells us her story - how she was captured by the story of the African American, tenured professor at a major evangelical college who wore a hijab in "embodied solidarity" with Muslim women. She identified with their plight as marginalized by the current political and social climate - and as a consequence, lost her position. More show notes: https://thebeachedwhitemale.com/linda_midgett/
