Carolyn Chen: Work & Religion
Season 4 of 20 Minute Takes returns with a deeply insightful conversation with Dr. Carolyn Chen. Dr. Chen is a sociologist and professor of ethnic studies at UC Berkeley and specializes in the study of religion. Her most recent book "Work, Pray, Code: When Work Becomes Religion in Silicon Valley" looks into how tech corporations are bringing religiosity and spirituality into the work place. Nikki Toyama-Szeto and Dr. Chen talk about the consequences of this blurring of religion and work, how it affects faith communities, ethics, and society as a whole. They also talk about what it means to cultivate an atmosphere of hospitality amidst a religiously diverse community.
