Fluid Truth

Fluid Truth with Attorney Shirley Skyers-Thomas is a collection of stories and conversations that discusses the question: What does equity look like from varying perspectives?

Guests share their encounters with varying institutions & systems and allow us insight into different perspectives. In hearing these stories, we are given a glimpse into another person’s truth, for just a moment.  

We all have our own truth. It’s not absolute – it’s fluid.

The podcast is a production of the Quinnipiac University Podcast Studio. The executive producer is David DesRoches.
