Manage episode 464022045 series 2480569
Journey into the heart of Detroit's vibrant culture as we welcome Ber-Henda Williams to the Detroit is Different podcast. In this powerful and introspective conversation, Ber-Henda reflects on her journey as an educator, poet, and community leader rooted in the legacies of Detroit’s Black history. From the resilience of her family’s migration story to her father’s dynamic contributions as a Southfield volunteer, Ber-Henda weaves tales of artistry, hope, and transformation. A bilingual poet and Spanish educator, Ber-Henda shares how embracing the Espanol has expanded her world, built bridges across cultures, and added a unique layer to her artistry and community work. Whether performing bilingual spoken word or teaching poetry in schools where she speaks Spanish from the time she enters until she leaves, Ber-Henda’s journey highlights the power of language to create connections and deepen understanding. Together, we explore themes of healing through community, the role of creativity in navigating life’s transitions, and the grounding power of poetry as a tool for self-expression and connection. This episode is a celebration of heritage, love, and the unwavering strength of Detroit’s soul.
