This is great to hear, and props to you for your line of work. Compassionate service to others is one of the highest and most beautiful things a person can do - tho I am sure its not easy.

2022-02-05 19:19:38 +0000 UTCThis is great to listen to. Thank you for sharing this. I have recently delved deep into Gramsci having finished all three volumes of Buttigieg's translation for a first read. Because of these readings I have really been wondering about the function of social workers as intellectuals, as I am a social worker that comes from poverty and homelessness growing up as a child. Lots of questions along this vein. But now I have more to read and compare now being introduced to Said and other thinkers the podcast shared.
