Due to some scheduling difficulties, we're pushing back this week's episode to next week and then going back-to-back Tuesdays. In the meantime, enjoy this episode from last Halloween with Kathleen M. Brown on the Salem Witch Trials _____________________________ The Salem Witch Trials may well be the single most notorious and iconic event of America's colonial period. Every Halloween, Salem, Massachusetts, hosts untold thousands of tourists who revel in the city's occult history and reputation as America's haunted capital of spookiness. But as well-known as the Salem Witch Trials are, they remain a hotbed of historical inaccuracy and misconception. So what exactly happened? How did a sleepy, growing Massachusetts town become the epicenter of witch hysteria? Did everyone go insane, or were the Salem Witch Trials perfectly consistent with the worldview of Salem's citizens. To help us clear this up, Kelly and John asked University of Pennsylvania history professor Kathleen M. Brown for her insights. Brown is a historian of gender and race in early America and the Atlantic World. Educated at Wesleyan University and the University of Wisconsin, Madison, she is author of Good Wives, Nasty Wenches, and Anxious Patriarchs: Gender, Race, and Power in Colonial Virginia (Chapel Hill, 1996), which won the Dunning Prize of the American Historical Association. Her latest, Undoing Slavery: Bodies, Race, and Rights in the Age of Abolition, was published in 2023.  

Abolition never really caught on in a serious way in Middle Tennessee, but that doesn't mean people weren't aware that the institution of slavery was dying all over the rest of the world.

Eric King is a father, poet, activist, and anarchist who was imprisoned in 2014 for acts of solidarity with the Ferguson, MO, uprising in the wake of the police killing of Michael Brown. While locked up, King endured years of documented physical and psychological torture, spending the last 18 months of his sentence in the ADX supermax prison in Florence, Colorado. In this episode of Rattling the Bars, host Mansa Musa speaks with King about how he survived his incarceration “with heart and soul intact,” and about King's new book, A Clean Hell: Anarchy and Abolition in America's Most Notorious Dungeon, in which he “opens the doors of America's most secretive prison and lets the reader step into the cell to experience all the horrors the Federal Bureau of Prisons tries to keep hidden underground.”For full show notes and transcript, click here.Credits:Producer / Videographer / Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterFollow us on BlueskyLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

Nous sommes le 18 février 1794, à Bordeaux. Ce jour-là, on célèbre avec ferveur l'abolition de l'esclavage. Au cœur de cet événement, il y a Casimir Fidèle. On l'imagine placé au sommet d'une estrade, porter la Déclaration des droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen. Submergé par l'émotion, il fond en larmes dans les bras de Jean-Lambert Tallien, figure majeure de la Révolution. Ce moment est l'aboutissement d'un parcours hors du commun. Né en Afrique en 1748, celui qui ne s'appelait pas encore Casimir est capturé à l'âge de 6 ans et déporté en France. Malgré son statut d'esclave, il va bénéficier d'une formation de haute qualité à Paris. Une formation qui va lui permettre de devenir maître pâtissier-traiteur. Une fois affranchi, Casimir Fidèle connaît une ascension sociale exceptionnelle, il devient le responsable d'un hôtel bordelais prestigieux, rendez-vous des élites. Casimir est passé de la cale d'un navire négrier au rang de notable respecté, jusqu'à être choisi pour représenter les « citoyens de couleur » à Paris. Retour sur le parcours d'un affranchi … Avec nous : Julie Duprat, archiviste-paléographe, conservatrice à la Bibliothèque historique de la ville de Paris, membre du conseil scientifique de la Fondation pour la mémoire de l'esclavage. « Casimir Fidèle – Parcours d'un affranchi » ; CNRS éd.

Today I have the honor of speaking with longtime activist Silky Shah, Executive Director of the Detention Watch Network, about her new, and extremely important book, Unbuild Walls: Why Immigrant Justice Needs Abolition. Shah provides a critical discussion about the intersection between detention, the prison industrial complex, and anti-immigrant racism. She explains how this relationship is hardly new, but stretches back at least to the Reagan presidency and through Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Biden.  Given the durability of this connection, Shah makes an altogether convincing case that reform does not work, and that abolition is called for. Her book and her activism give us inspirating examples of such work in the past and present, and for the future.Silky Shah is the Executive Director of Detention Watch Network, a national coalition building power to abolish immigration detention in the United States. She has worked as an organizer on issues related to immigration detention, the prison industrial complex, and racial and migrant justice for nearly 20 years.

Mypillow.com enter code Patrick at check out.   Host Patrick Coffin welcomes Irish journalist and author John Waters, whose eleventh book chronicles the "heinous crime" of the past five years through Substack dispatches. Waters, a former Irish Times columnist and First Things contributor, frames the work as Winston Smith's diary from 1984—a record for the unborn, preserving truths amid erasure. Waters argues we've entered a copy of reality detached from the original, where politics, ethics, and truth dissolve. COVID lockdowns exemplify this: a health "crisis" masking authoritarian overreach, with media flipping from truth-telling to industrialized lying.  Was COVID a dream, or did it really happen?Once the "land of saints and scholars," Ireland now embodies cultural collapse—abortion's moral ecosystem shattered, fatherhood in apocalypse (echoing Waters' 1994 play Long Black Coat), and institutional betrayal.  He laments: "I am an authority on the destruction of my country," wishing instead for skills in boats or squash.Waters dissects systemic wickedness: tyrannical police, corrupted judiciaries, silent abolition of laws. Beyond news events, Waters probes meanings—lost freedoms, fractured subjects "subdivisible to infinity," and humanity's thieving under technocratic masks. Despite censorship (his book has been shunned by Irish shops), Waters sees Substack as resistance. Advice: Hold fast to the good; pass truth to posterity.

Send us a textFirst you might ask - why should I read Victor Hugo.  Well I'm glad you asked.  You see, Reading Victor Hugo is an immersive and profound experience.  But before we deal into Les Miserables, I want to say a little bit about his earlier novels.You see, before his masterwork Les Misérables (1862), Victor Hugo wrote several other significant works, including novels, plays, and poetry. Two of his most important earlier novels are The Last Day of a Condemned Man (1829) and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (1831). These works were crucial for his development as a writer and established the themes that he would later fully realize in Les Misérables.The Last Day of a Condemned Man (1829)This short but powerful novel is told entirely from the perspective of a man awaiting execution by the guillotine. It is a raw and unflinching look at the psychological torment of a person facing death. Hugo doesn't reveal the man's name or his crime, forcing the reader to focus on his humanity rather than his guilt. Abolition of the Death Penalty: The novel is a direct and passionate plea for the abolition of capital punishment. Hugo uses the condemned man's thoughts and fears to expose the brutality and inhumanity of the state-sanctioned killing. This was a core moral conviction for Hugo and became a lifelong crusade. This work is considered a precursor to the social consciousness of Les Misérables. It shows Hugo's early commitment to using literature to champion the cause of the oppressed and challenge a justice system he viewed as flawed. The book's central argument—that the act of killing a human being is fundamentally wrong, regardless of the crime—is a theme he would revisit.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

It is important that abolitionists and environmental justice organizers fight a common purpose in their work and fight for justice. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the second piece in a six-part series titled “Abolitionist Lessons from the Prison Belt” in Inquest called “Abolition and Environmental Justice”, which features a conversation between Lydia Pelot-Hobbs, Judah Schept, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, and Craig Gilmore about how organizers, abolitionists, and organizations have forged a common purpose in the work and fight for environmental justice across the country, and how important this coalition work is in addressing disposability, land use, organized abandonment, harm, and climate justice issues, and what we learn and take away from this incredible piece in our continued learning and unlearning work and fight for collective liberation.

The murder that still haunts a Pennsylvania city.On the morning of August 8, 1975, sixteen-year-old Debbie Gama disappeared after leaving her home in Erie, only to be found raped and strangled days later in a creek nearly thirty miles from her home. What followed was an investigation that lacked suspects or even evidence pointing to a viable suspect. That is, until a private investigator named Dan Barber uncovered evidence leading directly to her killer: her English teacher, Raymond Payne. After Payne's arrest, Debbie's mother, Betty Ferguson, embarked on her own quest for justice, which unexpectedly led her on an incredible journey of forgiveness.Utilizing newspaper articles, court documents and investigative files never before revealed, Justin Dombrowski presents a gripping narrative of one investigator's pursuit of justice and a mother's search for the truth.

Huit mots qui ferment un chapitre long, violent, tragique, de notre histoire. Une histoire où l'on tranche, où l'on pend, où l'on fusille, au nom de la justice. Une histoire où le bourreau est salarié de l'État. Où l'on meurt dans la cour d'une prison, à l'aube, comme en catimini.Une histoire où chaque exécution déclenche des débats passionnés, entre humanisme et vengeance, droit et peur, morale et opinion publique.Cette histoire, c'est une fresque. Une lutte. Un interminable bras de fer entre deux France : celle qui croit à l'exemplarité du sang versé, et celle qui refuse qu'un État tue pour montrer qu'il ne faut pas tuer.Tout commence en 1764, avec un jeune marquis italien, Cesare Beccaria, qui ose une question inédite : « Quel est ce droit que se donne la société de tuer ses propres membres ? » C'est la naissance de l'abolitionnisme. Mais en France, il faudra attendre plus de deux siècles pour que cette idée devienne loi.Car malgré la Révolution, qui invente la guillotine mais annonce aussi la fin de la peine capitale « à la paix générale » ; malgré Victor Hugo, qui écrit « Prenez garde à la première tête qui tombe. Elle met le peuple en appétit » ; malgré les tentatives d'Aristide Briand ou Jean Jaurès ; malgré l'indignation suscitée par des exécutions ratées, des erreurs judiciaires, des supplices qui glacent le sang – rien n'y fait. La République, si souvent invoquée, recule. Les gouvernements tergiversent. Les majorités parlementaires cèdent. Et toujours, l'opinion publique est appelée à la barre : on la dit hostile à l'abolition. Alors on recule. Encore. Et encore.Il faudra les horreurs de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la montée des mouvements humanistes, et surtout le courage politique d'un homme, Robert Badinter, pour que la bascule se produise enfin. En 1981, quelques mois après l'élection de François Mitterrand, la France abolit la peine de mort. Elle devient ainsi l'un des derniers pays d'Europe occidentale à le faire.

Sarah and Angelina Grimke were unapologetically anti-slavery and pro-women's rights. Their convictions were driven by their faith in God, yet it got them booted from Quakerism, made their name a curse among their Southern peers, and even caused controversy among fellow abolitionists. The Grimke sisters made history, yet their names have largely been forgotten. Today, we introduce you to these unlikely abolitionists.-----Want to contribute to an upcoming episode?Leave us a voicemail and tell us what silent worship means to you and what tips you would give to someone who was trying it for the first time: Call us at 215-278-9411 or email a voice memo to producer@quakerpodcast.com  Become a monthly supporter!

In this thought-provoking episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan Rittenhouse and Stuart McAllister dive into a rich theological discussion sparked by a listener's question: What are the foundational books every thinking Christian should engage with to understand today's cultural, philosophical, and sociological landscape? Stuart, a globally respected Christian thinker and apologist, shares a curated list of essential texts—from Modern Times by Paul Johnson to The Cross of Christ by John Stott and The Abolition of Man by C.S. Lewis. Together, Nathan and Stuart explore how deep Christian theology, classical philosophy, and cultural analysis intersect to equip believers to live faithfully in a complex, postmodern world. This episode is a must-listen for Christians hungry for intellectually rigorous, gospel-centered engagement with the issues shaping our time.1. Modern Times by Paul Johnson.2. The Passion of the Western Mind by Richard Tarnas.3. The Cross of Christ by John Stott.4. No god but God by Os Guinness and John Seel.5. The One, the Three, and the Many by Colin Gunton.6. The Way of the Modern world by Craig Gay.7. The Abolition of man by C.S. Lewis.8. The Universe Next Door by James Sire.9. When God became King by N. T. Wright.10.

Benjamin Lay was a fierce abolitionist whose dramatic protests against slavery embarrassed the powerful Quakers of his day. They kicked him out and tried to erase him.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into That Hideous Strength, the final and most complex book of C.S. Lewis's Ransom Trilogy. Rather than offering a typical plot summary, they explore the prophetic theological themes that Lewis weaves into this dystopian narrative—from technocratic utopianism and demonic deception to the seduction of power and the spiritual cost of compromise. Originally written in 1945, this novel's relevance to the challenges Christians face in 2025 is both unsettling and illuminating. Nathan and Cameron connect Lewis's fiction to The Abolition of Man, The Inner Ring, and present-day issues like AI, media manipulation, transhumanism, and the loss of transcendence in modern culture. Perfect for Christians seeking rich theological reflection on current events, this conversation challenges believers to slow down, cultivate virtue, and recover a vision of reality where spirit precedes matter and truth is not up for negotiation.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In May of 2024, Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed historian Manisha Sinha, author of THE RISE AND FALL OF THE SECOND AMERICAN REPUBLIC: Reconstruction, 1860-1920. In the interview, Manisha explained her idea that Reconstruction is a defining moment in the history of American democracy.  She also asserts that Reconstruction was unwinding until 1920, ending with the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment, which granted women the right to vote--and which Sinha calls the "last Reconstruction amendment."Manisha Sinha is the James L. and Shirley A. Draper Chair in American History at the University of Connecticut and a leading authority on the history of slavery and abolition and the Civil War and Reconstruction. She is also the author of The Counterrevolution of Slavery: Politics and Ideology in Antebellum South Carolina and The Slave's Cause: A History of Abolition. Diverse Voices Book Review Social Media: Facebook - @diversevoicesbookreview Instagram - @diverse_voices_book_review X - @diversebookshay Email: hbh@diversevoicesbookreview.com

You'll be hard pressed to find a man who stood for his convictions more firmly than John Brown. John was an white abolitionist willing to do more to end slavery than any other man - of any color - in America in the 1850s. It wasn't enough for John to speak out against slavery, or to help freed slaves find freedom through the Underground Railroad. John felt that if slaveowners weren't willing to immediately free their slaves and renounce their ways, they deserved death. And he felt called by God to send them directly to their graves. For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com

Today, David explains why “parental rights” is now just a power game, and gives examples of Christian legal and policy advocates effectively conceding that the determinative power over what those rights are rests with a U.S. Supreme Court that has embraced a lawless, disintegrated cosmos. He also briefly summarizes what Christians must do to restore real and objectively determinable parental rights. It’s a must-listen episode for those with children and grandchildren.

The discussion ranges from the serious to the silly, with stops along the way for auteur theory, sports metaphors, representation, all art is political, zombie movies, sundown towns, the Tulsa Massacre/Black Wall Street, the horror genre as conduit for political and social discourse, joy as revolutionary act, A.I. and cultural appropriation, Annie as a potential slayer, oners, Alvin Ailey, and #OscarsSoWhite.    Note: Since this is an R-Rated movie, we've decided not to humorously bleep out the swear words.   Next time we'll be covering Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 4, Episode 11, “Doomed.”    Keep Slaying!

What Role Does Jordan Peterson Play in Shaping Young Men's Views on Masculinity?   Host Curtis Chang teams up with “founding friend” and New York Times columnist David French to unpack David's recent conversation with Jordan Peterson—and the crisis facing young men today. From mental health struggles to educational decline, David and Curtis take a hard look at what's shaping young male identity in modern America, including the outsized influence of figures like Peterson. They explore how political polarization, digital culture, and a loss of purpose are driving young men to extremes. Most importantly, they offer a redemptive vision: practical ways to cultivate virtuous masculinity through mentorship, community, and spiritual formation.   Donate to Redeeming Babel   Resources mentioned in this episode: David's column What's the Matter With Men?
