This week Dawn talks with Roland Wise, a writer, artist, and storyteller. Roland grew up in the south in a tumultuous household and often describes his childhood as being raised in a bag full of rattlesnakes. He shares his story of chasing down a gunman who set out to kill gay people in Denver and how this led him to find connection and community. Check out Roland’s children's book, Farmer Dreams, here: http://farmerdreams.blogspot.com/ It is about the safety of a seed who opens to water then faces drought.
