A Living Legacy of Dialogue: Minister Priscilla Felisky Whitehead Featured in the Miami Herald

/in /by

We are incredibly proud to see Minister Priscilla Felisky Whitehead, a longtime former Mosaic Miami board member, Silver Medallion honoree, and trailblazing leader of our Interfaith Clergy Dialogue featured in the Miami Herald for continuing the work she’s championed for decades: building bridges through conversation.

Alongside her dear friend Rabbi Ralph Kingsley, Priscilla is leading a powerful new series at VI AT AVENTURA that invites residents to reflect on life, faith, and meaning without fear or division. Together, they’re proving that Mosaic Miami’s longest-standing interfaith dialogue in the U.S. isn’t just history it’s a living legacy.

At Mosaic Miami, we believe dialogue is sacred. Thank you, Priscilla, for reminding us that even in the “twilight” of life, the light of connection, compassion, and curiosity still shines brightly.

Celebrating & Reflecting on Juneteenth

/in /by

On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, freedom finally reached the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas. Juneteenth marks that delayed justice and the ongoing work of building a freer, more honest society.

But freedom isn’t just physical. It’s the ability to think clearly, speak honestly, and stay informed.

At Mosaic Miami, we believe in building a Village Square where people come together to ask real questions, challenge old assumptions, and share truth even when it’s uncomfortable.

As we honor Juneteenth, we revisit Bulldozing Barriers, our special Can We Talk?. The conversations we captured reflect a deeper kind of freedom one we don’t have to wait for a holiday to claim.

Freedom grows when we talk to each other. When we listen. When we learn.
