Today, we are in conversation with Ariana Berksteiner, executive director of Emmaus House, which daily serves between 100 and 300 homeless people in downtown Savannah. When she moved to Savannah more than a decade ago, Berksteiner helped new restaurants get up and running. Today, she helps the city’s homeless get through each day by serving a meal, offering a shower and a place to do laundry and arranging for medical assistance. Berksteiner sees homelessness in many forms. Before the Pandemic, the city’s homeless was predominantly Male and African-American. Today, there are men, women, Black, White, Hispanic, young, old. Unfortunately, she says, every group is represented.

Difference Makers: Episode 79 - Emmaus House director Ariana Berksteiner

Join in and listen to two friends having a conversation about racial injustice nationally and locally in their community. Ariana Berksteiner is the Executive Director at Emmaus House, a soup kitchen in Savannah. She is a true leader and a Savannah mover and shaker. To quote her from this podcast episode, she says, one of the most important things for white people is to "vocalize when blackness is victimized." The "goal is not to change anyone's mind but to stand up and say what they're doing or saying is wrong." Thank you Ariana for joining Ben on this week's episode of Faith Revisited!
