Crime and gentrification are hot-button issues that easily polarize racially diverse neighborhoods. How do residents, activists, and politicians navigate the thorny politics of race as they fight crime or resist gentrification? And do conflicts over competing visions of neighborhood change necessarily divide activists into racially homogeneous camps, or can they produce more complex alliances and divisions? In Us Versus Them, Jan Doering answers these questions through an in-depth study of two Chicago neighborhoods.

We are living in angry times. No matter where we go, what we watch, or how we communicate, our culture is rife with conflict. Unfortunately, Christians appear to be caught up in the same animosity as the culture at large. We are perceived as angry, judgmental, and defensive, fighting among ourselves in various media while the world looks on. How have we failed to be a people of reconciliation and renewal in the face of such tumult?

Us vs Them Podcast is giving patients and caregivers (and those who support them) the opportunity to tell their stories and talk about how we transform healthcare… as we tackle tough topics that don’t get enough attention… from the perspective of those with lived experience. We will do deep dives into topics such as gender bias in healthcare, frozen shoulder, transitioning from pediatric to adult care, mental health, over-medicating our seniors, family caregivers as partners (not visitors) in healthcare, and more. Join us for compelling stories, smart analysis, and creative solutions.
