In this episode: For our listeners who aren’t familiar, how would you describe Crowns to someone hearing about it for the first time? What makes this story feel alive and necessary today? Crowns centers around the Black church tradition of hats, not just as fashion, but as identity. What do you hope your audience learns about these traditions and culture, especially the audience here in Cookeville? This story is about legacy: the members of our community who shape our lives, and who we become to serve others. When you think about your own story, who are the hat wearers in your life?
