Podcasts about Apartheid

The following episode of our African Revolutions and Decolonization series is a massive one, two former episodes on Apartheid edited together into a giant conversation.  Information on each of the episodes below: The first is a crossover episode that we had done in collaboration with our sister podcast RevLeft Radio, we brought on Ashley Fataar to provide a primer into Apartheid in the South African context, and where we also began to explore some of the parallels to the apartheid that the settler-colonial state of Israel is enforcing in occupied Palestine today.  Ashley Fataar is a long time socialist activist and writer based in South Africa.  If you would like to get in touch with Ashley, you can reach him via email at ash.fataar@gmail.com.   After that, we have the 2023 Revolutionary Guerrilla Menace get-together, also known as the Rev Left Family Annual Collab (Rev Left+Red Menace+Guerrilla History), where Alyson, Henry, Adnan, and Breht sat down for a deep dive on South African Apartheid. Together they discussed its euro-colonialist origins, explained the significance of the Boer Wars, defined and explicated the origins of apartheid, explored the political economy of apartheid and how brutal racism shaped it, examined the multi-faceted indigenous resistance to apartheid, analyzed the end of formal apartheid as well as its ongoing legacy in post-apartheid South Africa, and tried to extract important lessons from this history to apply to the ongoing struggle in Palestine.   Subscribe to our Substack (free!) to keep up to date with what we are doing.  With so many episodes coming in this series (and beyond), you won't want to miss anything, so get the updates straight to your inbox.  guerrillahistory.substack.com Help support the show by signing up to our patreon, where you also will get bonus content: https://www.patreon.com/guerrillahistory

What if there was a practice that helped us collectively witness and digest world events without becoming overwhelmed, indifferent, or numb? What if this practice could lead to new levels of collective healing? Thomas sits down with Kosha Joubert to discuss this revolutionary practice, called Global Social Witnessing. Kosha is the CEO of the Pocket Project, a non-profit organization co-founded by Thomas that's dedicated to growing a culture of trauma-informed care. Global Social Witnessing addresses our current lack of societal rituals for processing traumatic world events. It offers a way to move beyond individual overwhelm to collectively face challenges with greater presence, compassion, and agency for positive change. It joins people across borders and cultures to co-regulate and bring an embodied awareness to our collective nervous system. And you can do it from the comfort of your own home! Kosha also shares details about the Pocket Project's upcoming Global Social Witnessing Facilitator Training, which you can learn more about here: https://pocketproject.org/global-social-witnessing-training/?ref=86   Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

In this episode of Everyday Conversations on Race, Simma Lieberman, The Inclusionist, is joined by two incredible global Diversity, Equity and Inclusion experts: Michaël Stuber, the European DEI Engineer, and Nene Molefi, founder of Mandate Molefi HR Consultants in South Africa. While the focus of this episode is on the global Diversity, Equity and Inclusion landscape, it's also a deeply personal conversation about their journeys, the challenges they've faced, and how their backgrounds have shaped their approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion. As we explore how Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives differ across countries, Michaël and Nene share their unique personal experiences—from Michaël's upbringing in a family where cultural diversity was the norm, to Nene's harrowing memories of growing up in the midst of apartheid in South Africa. These personal stories are woven into the conversation, bringing a human element to the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion discussion that goes beyond theories and strategies. Detailed Time Stamps: [00:00] Introduction to Simma and the guests [04:30] Michael Stuber shares how his diverse upbringing shaped his perspective on DEI [07:00] Nene talks about growing up during apartheid in South Africa and the 1976 uprisings [12:00] The impact of apartheid on Nene's personal and professional journey [16:00] Michaël's early experiences with Diversity, Equity and Inclusion work and the importance of a European context [21:45] The role of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in shaping Michaël's understanding of DEI [26:30] Nene discusses her experience in developing South Africa's Employment Equity Act and its legacy [32:15] Challenges and growth in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion work across South Africa and Europe [37:00] Michaël reflects on the global DEI landscape and adapting U.S.-based DEI concepts for Europe [42:00] The importance of systemic change in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion: addressing structures, not just attitudes [47:15] Current challenges in DEI: nationalistic movements and the regression of progress [52:30] The personal impact of the global political climate on DEI work [57:00] Nene and Michaël discuss the shifting attitudes towards Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and the need for integrity and truth-telling [01:02:30] Closing remarks: The importance of global perspectives in DEI and continuing the conversation This isn't just about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; it's about understanding the deep-rooted histories that influence how we work, relate, and view one another today. Michaël and Nene's personal stories and shared wisdom will help you see Diversity, Equity and Inclusion not just as a corporate or political issue, but a human one. Key Takeaways: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is about more than just policies—it's about understanding personal and cultural histories that shape our worldviews. Real change in DEI requires confronting deep-rooted systems of oppression, as demonstrated by Nene's experience in apartheid and Michaël's work in Europe. Effective DEI strategies must be rooted in listening, respect, and understanding of the complex histories that shape people's lives.

Die USA hat eine Gruppe von weißen Südafrikaner:innen als Geflüchtete aufgenommen. Laut Donald Trump drohe ihnen angeblich der Genozid. Wenn ihr jetzt denkt: Moment mal – das klingt nach verkehrter Welt, denn während der Apartheid wurde in Südafrika ja die Schwarze Bevölkerung systematisch unterdrückt… Nicht für Donald Trump. Diesen Behauptungen musste sich auch der südafrikanische Cyril Ramaphosa entgegenstellen. Der war eigentlich ins Weiße Haus gekommen, um über wirtschaftliche Themen zu sprechen – und wurde stattdessen von Trump vorgeführt. ARD-Korrespondent Stephan Ueberbach berichtet uns über die Lage in Südafrika und erklärt, warum die Weißen in Südafrika im Schnitt noch immer mehr Privilegien haben. Und Birgit Eger im ARD Studio Washington analysiert mit uns Trumps Strategie: Warum scheint Südafrika sein neuer Lieblingsfeind? Warum macht er für weiße Südafrikaner:innen eine Ausnahme von seiner strengen Einwanderungspolitik? Welches Kalkül steckt dahinter? Update: Nach unserem Gespräch mit Stephan Ueberbach hat die Nachrichtenagentur Reuters berichtet: Unter den Zetteln, die Trump als Beleg für die Dokumentation ermordeter weißer Farmer hochhält, befindet sich auch ein ausgedrucktes Bild aus einem Video der Nachrichtenagentur Reuters, das in der Demokratischen Republik Kongo aufgenommen wurde. Das Video wurde von Reuters am 3. Februar 2025 veröffentlicht und zeigt Leichensäcke, die während eines Massenbegräbnisses in der Stadt Goma bestattet wurden. Und nicht, wie Trump sagt, "weiße Farmer" aus Südafrika. ----- Moderation: Joana Jäschke Redaktion: Steffi Fetz Mitarbeit: Caroline Mennerich, Anna Stosch Redaktionsschluss: 23.5.2025 ----- Wir freuen uns über euer Feedback!

Speaking across the decades, from the 1960s to the 2010s, Ram Dass shares his insights into responding to suffering, the meaning of service, and the confluence of social action and spiritual work.The Ram Dass community gathers regularly to engage in meaningful discussions about the podcast. We invite you to join us and share your curiosities, insights, and wisdom. Sign up for the General Fellowship to receive event invitations directly in your inbox.This episode of Here and Now is a compilation of Ram Dass talking about service and social action across the decades.We begin in 1969, during a time of significant cultural change. A time where the people of the United States found themselves in the middle of the Civil Rights Movement, the anti-war protests, and the rise of Women's Liberation. Ram Dass explores the concept of social responsibility and talks about why protesting should come from a place not of anger, but of love.Next, we move to 1983. The media landscape has transformed in the wake of the Iran hostage crisis, political paradigms shift as Ronald Reagan makes his way to power, and communities all over the world begin to feel the impact of the growing AIDS epidemic. Ram Dass talks about learning to trust one's intuitive inner voice when it comes to responding to suffering, and how we can bring together social action and spiritual work.Two years later, it is 1985 and the world has rapidly evolved. The Soviet Union has become a global threat. The nightly news shows the Apartheid regime in South Africa violently cracking down on Civil Rights activists, while the Reagan administration stands by, focused instead on rolling back civil liberties at home in the United States. Ram Dass offers perspective on navigating these challenges with an open heart. He explores the difference between dharma and seva, and why service requires us to embrace paradox in our lives.It is 1993, technology is transforming the world and how we engage with it. Ram Dass explores how being too attached to the fruits of our actions can be detrimental to social action work, leading activists to burn out quickly.We end our journey across the decades in 2018, in the middle of the first Trump administration in America. Wars rage on, and civil liberty is at risk across the globe. How do we oppose this skillfully and with an open heart? Ram Dass talks about how karma yoga is the key to finding the right balance between working on yourself and taking action for the benefit of others.

And if you're too obsessed with the goal, you lose it. If you're too obsessed with the goal, since in much action you don't get what you want, you'll burn out much sooner. And so, the injunction of the Bhagavad Gita, which says be not identified with being the actor, be not attached to the fruits of the action, and yet, the action happens.” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

La semana pasada Israel lanzó una nueva ofensiva en Gaza para controlar toda la franja y obligar a Hamás a liberar a los rehenes. Esta última ofensiva forma parte de una mucho mayor que comenzó tras la ruptura de la tregua en marzo y, como consecuencia, la situación humanitaria en Gaza es de nuevo crítica. Esto se debe en buena medida al bloqueo israelí que limita la entrada de suministros, algo que podría derivar en hambruna. Netanyahu anunció que permitiría convoyes de ayuda humanitaria, pero a sus aliados de derecha religiosa no les parece bien, quieren que la guerra continúe hasta que Hamas se rinda por hambre. La determinación israelí ha generado alarma en Europa y EEUU, ya que dos millones de civiles en Gaza padecen escasez de alimentos, combustible, medicinas y agua potable. El conflicto, que empezó hace ya un año y siete meses, ha dejado aproximadamente 75.000 muertos palestinos y 2.000 israelíes, con Gaza devastada y sin avances en planes de paz. Los aliados de Israel, frustrados, presionan para que acabe la guerra. EEUU y los países europeos han pedido a Netanyahu que detenga ya el conflicto, pero esto le pone ante un dilema: finalizar la guerra podría costarle el Gobierno, mientras que si continua arriesga el apoyo internacional. El Reino Unido acaba de suspender la negociación de un acuerdo comercial y ha sancionado a varios asentamientos en Cisjordania. El ministro de exteriores británico, David Lammy ha llegado a calificar el bloqueo a Gaza como “cruel e indefendible”. Francia, Canadá y otros aliados también han pedido frenar la ofensiva terrestre y amenazan con sanciones. EEUU exige el fin inmediato del conflicto y la liberación de lo rehenes, algo que complica los planes de Netanyahu ya que depende por completo de su apoyo. Aunque su Gobierno ha permitido la entrada de un centenar camiones de ayuda humanitaria esta semana, la presión estadounidense y europea le obliga a recalcular su estrategia. Netanyahu argumenta que las sanciones benefician a Hamás recordando el ataque del 7 de octubre de 2023 que desencadenó la guerra. Pero en la Casa Blanca insisten en una solución rápida. El Gobierno de Netanyahu depende de una serie de partidos que se oponen a la ayuda humanitaria y que podrían sacarle del poder tan sólo con retirarle el apoyo parlamentario. Habría que convocar elecciones y las tendría perdidas. No se podrá librar de las de octubre del año próximo y para ellas se está preparando. Sabe que no puede presentarse si no ha conseguido antes el objetivo de liquidar a Hamas. Pero no es tan fácil como podría parecer. Hamás se reinfiltra en áreas ya despejadas por el ejército israelí y a eso hay que sumar la presión diplomática desde el exterior, el agotamiento de los reservistas y el hartazgo de la población israelí, que apoya un acuerdo negociado. La oposición, liderada por Yair Golan, critica a Netanyahu por dañar la reputación internacional de Israel y convertir al país en un “estado paria” similar a la Sudáfrica del Apartheid. Golan va ganando popularidad, y su partido podría ser una fuerza a tener en cuenta en las elecciones de 2026. La negativa de Netanyahu a apoyar una administración palestina en Gaza alimenta sospechas de que prolonga la guerra por motivos políticos y que busca una ocupación permanente, algo que muchos en Israel y el extranjero rechazan. Movimientos recientes de Trump como las posibles negociaciones con Irán y los hutíes, le dificultan aún más llevar a cabo sus planes. Sin apoyo en el Congreso estadounidense y con aliados europeos cada vez más críticos, Netanyahu se encuentra aislado y con un futuro político incierto.

It's a White House visit preceded by some heavy-handed sales tactics. South Africa's president Cyril Ramaphosa in the lion's den of the Oval Office after Donald Trump advisor Elon Musk accused Pretoria of discrimination over a stalled commercial deal to buy his Starlink low orbit satellite system. Ramaphosa reportedly now offering a workaround of post-Apartheid local Black ownership laws, laws to address historical inequality in a nation where whites make up 7-percent of the population but still own 70 percent of the land.Adding pressure on Donald Trump's visitor, a lie that's even appeared unsollicited on Elon Musk's artificial intelligence chatbot. Grok talking up a supposed genocide against whites in South Africa – a country that's got way too high a homicide rate for sure, but where in reality one percent of the victims are whites. Trump himself talking up the trope and offering refugee status to whites.So how should the nation that currently hosts the rotating chair of the G20 handle its relations with the United States? How should it handle the South African-born Musk who enjoys outsized leverage it seems? And more broadly, what path for a South Africa that needs foreign investment to fulfill its potential?Produced by François Picard, Rebecca Gnignati, Juliette Laffont, Jimena Morales-Velasco, Alessandro Xenos.

Prisons are a microcosm of how carceral apartheid operates as a larger governing strategy to decimate political targets and foster deceit, disinformation, and division in society. White supremacy within the institutional conditions in US prisons produces a power dynamic of racist intent in the prison system that culminates in what Professor Brittany Friedman terms carceral apartheid. Host Sahar Aziz discusses the many shocking discoveries that Friedman finds from the research for her book Carceral Apartheid: How Lies and White Supremacists Run Our Prison published in 2025. Beginning in the 1950s, California prison officials declared war on imprisoned Black people and sought to identify Black militants as a key problem, creating a strategy for the management, segregation, and elimination of these individuals from the prison population that continues into the present day. In Carceral Apartheid, Professor Friedman delves into how the California Department of Corrections deployed various official, clandestine, and at times extralegal control techniques—including officer alliances with imprisoned white supremacists—to suppress Black political movements, revealing the broader themes of deception, empire, corruption, and white supremacy in American mass incarceration. Professor Friedman uncovers how the US domestic war against imprisoned Black people models and perpetuates genocide, imprisonment, and torture abroad.#MassIncarceration #Apartheid #WhiteSupremacy #Prison #BLM #RacismSupport the showSupport the Center for Security, Race and Rights by following us and making a donation: Donate: https://give.rutgersfoundation.org/csrr-support/20046.html Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rucsrr Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Threads: https://threads.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/rucsrr Follow us on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/rucsrr Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://csrr.rutgers.edu/newsroom/sign-up-for-newsletter/

On Monday, dozens of Afrikaners arrived in the US as refugees. On this week's On the Media, how a fringe group of white South Africans have been lobbying for Donald Trump's attention for almost a decade — but refugee status was never on their wish list. Plus, the second episode of The Divided Dial, all about how rightwing extremists took over shortwave radio.[01:00] Host Micah Loewinger talks with Carolyn Holmes, a professor of political science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, about the arrival of white South African refugees in the US, why Afrikaner white rights groups are objecting to the policy, and the long-standing exchange of ideas between white nationalist elites in the US and South Africa.[16:42] Episode 2 of The Divided Dial, Season 2: You Must Form Your Militia Movements. Many governments eased off the shortwaves after the Cold War, and homegrown US-based rightwing extremists edged out shortwave peaceniks to fill the void. Reporter Katie Thornton explores how in the 1990s, US shortwave radio stations became a key organizing and recruiting ground for white supremacists and the burgeoning anti-government militia movement. On this instantaneous, international medium, they honed a strategy and a rhetoric that they would take to the early internet and beyond.Further reading:“Tucker Carlson, those South African white rights activists aren't telling you the whole truth,” by Carolyn Holmes (2019)“‘Kill the Boer': The anti-apartheid song Musk ties to ‘white genocide'” by Nick Dall On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

She has lived in eleven countries, including South Africa during Apartheid and the Gaza Strip.  Her multicultural background and years of experience as a communications strategist have led to a career of uplifting others through content, speaking, coaching and leading. Known as a master of storytelling, she has written for several magazines and networks and her own award-winning online travel magazine, We Blog the World, which reaches over half a million globally.   Renee has launched award-winning campaigns for start-ups and Fortune 500 brands for nearly thirty years and has appeared as a spokesperson on major network broadcast stations and global business media. Renee has worked with celebrities, actors, Grammy Award musicians and renowned technology entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, Europe, Australia and Asia.    Feeling that soul was missing from the industry, she launched Blue Soul Media, which serves as a bridge between Spirit and Business.

Donald Trump is on a deportation spree, shipping out refugees from across the globe, often without due process. But somehow, white South African farmers are being welcomed with open arms. Wonder why? (Spoiler: it's racism.) To break down what's really happening in South Africa and where this “white genocide” myth came from, Don sits down with Simon Allison, co-founder of The Continent and one of the smartest voices covering the region. They unpack the dangerous misinformation fueling U.S. immigration policy, what the data actually says (hint: there is NO white genocide), and how South Africa's complex challenges are being twisted to serve far-right fantasies. It's time to separate fact from fear-mongering and call out the hypocrisy for what it is. This episode is brought to you by the Freedom From Religion Foundation.

That is how she sees herself, and so she feels free of all obligations, moral and practical. Until the police take her back to her family home…In a Cape Town where water is rationed and has to be collected from trucks each day, with the consequences of apartheid and the ending of it still evident, Deidre lives from day to day in squalor – largely created by herself – borrowing, persuading, cadging her way from the water trucks to the bar, testing the tolerance and pity of everyone she knows. Then she is contacted by the police, and taken by a respectful constable to the house where she grew up and where she lost her leg in a shattering explosion while still young. Faced with what is found there, she has to accept the truth of her past, and of her older brother, her parents' golden boy. Then she must confront herself and her responsibility, and what it truly is to be a victim.

What to make of the commission of inquiry on failure to prosecute Apartheid era crimes? Imtiaz Cajee by Radio Islam

Dr Julia Ravey and Dr Ella Hubber are both scientists, but it turns out there's a lot they don't know about the women that came before them. In Unstoppable, Julia and Ella tell each other the hidden, world-shaping stories of the scientists, engineers and innovators that they wish they'd known about when they were starting out in science. This week, the story of a woman who gained her education by herding sheep during her childhood to becoming one of Africa's most prominent scientists.Born under Apartheid in South Africa, Tebello Nyokong and her family uprooted their lives to escape the unequal education system enforced upon Black South Africans. After herding sheep proved she could do anything a boy could do, Tebello ended up studying science and found a love for chemistry. In the face of limited opportunities, she once again uprooted her life and took her studies oversees, but this was when she was introduced to something huge: a new, ground-breaking cancer treatment. Now Tebello is using nanotechnology to get this therapy off the ground, all while she fights to make Africa a science superpower.Presenters: Ella Hubber and Julia Ravey Guest Speaker: Professor Tebello Nyokong Producers: Ella Hubber and Julia Ravey Assistant producers: Sophie Ormiston, Anna Charalambou and Josie Hardy Sound Designer: Ella Roberts Production Coordinator: Ishmael Soriano Editor: Holly Squire (Image: Professor Tebello Nyokong.

The State's failure to both prosecute Apartheid-era crimes and effectively pursue Zondo Commission State Capture accused, is back in the spotlight. For decades, allegations have persisted that the National Party (NP) and the African National Congress (ANC) cut a secret deal to avoid prosecutions on both sides following testimony at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). In this interview with BizNews, Advocate Glynnis Breytenbach of the Democratic Alliance (DA) describes President Cyril Ramaphosa's belated decision to establish a Commission of Inquiry as a “desperate measure to avoid all of this dirty laundry being trawled through the public eye”. As for the “showcase” trial of former Vlakplaas commander, Colonel Eugene de Kock, she says: “..one always felt that he was kind of the scapegoat, because we all know that while he was busy doing those things that were so absolutely appalling, he was being lavishly praised by his superiors in the police and awarded medals for, amongst other things, bravery...And those people calling the shots have never been held to account which is both unsatisfying and deeply unfair.” Breytenbach is equally incensed about the failure to “see even one” notable State Capture prosecution. As for claims of “political interference” there as well, she says: “The last time interference was mentioned was with the access to the database of the State Capture issue; there was..a peripheral reference to interference. But…when we (Parliament's Portfolio Committee) asked about it, we were told, well, we prefer to keep it in-house because we don't want to make a fuss. Well, that's just not my approach to things, I'm afraid.”

In the latest edition of the Sunday Show with Neil De Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), he speaks about the role of money in the race for the next president of the African National Congress (ANC) just as billionaire Patrice Motsepe emerges as another likely contender. De Beer looks at the continuing “onslaught” from former President Jacob Zuma, whose MKP has taken another ward off the ANC. He points out the big differences in the strategies of MKP and the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) to the issue of Afrikaner self-determination. Following the latest EFF march on an Afrikaner community, he also warns: “I fear one morning, that when they go to the gates of such a place, they're to meet with arms. The police are going to be in the middle and people are going to get very cross…If one person in that group shoots, we will have a Marikana.” De Beer slams President Cyril Ramaphosa's move to appoint a Commission of Inquiry to establish why Apartheid-era crimes - testified to at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) - have not been prosecuted, saying: “We are still sitting with Zondo. So, we can go dig up old cows, but we can't lock up the present.” He also examines the suspicious circumstances surrounding the deaths of four members of the South African Police Service (SAPS) whose bodies ended up in the Hennops River. And he hails Mr Justice Nathan Erasmus who handed down a guilty verdict last week in the case of the missing Joshlin Smith. “Make this man the Judge President…What a jurist.”

Graeme Raubenheimer speaks to Thapelo Mokushane, Deputy Director of the TRC Unit at the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development, ahead of a historic reburial ceremony for ANC activists Benjamin Moloise and Abram Mngomezulu. Executed during apartheid and buried without family consent, their remains will be formally returned in a ceremony led by Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi. Mokushane reflects on restoring dignity and advancing national healing. Afternoon Drive with John Maytham is the late afternoon show on CapeTalk.

In eigentlich stillgelegten Minen Südafrikas versuchen tausende Bergleute, noch etwas Gold aus dem Untergrund zu kratzen. Der Staat geht hart gegen sie vor. Mit dramatischen Folgen. Es sind schreckliche Bilder. Erschöpfte Männer, abgemagert bis auf die Knochen. Daneben aufeinandergestapelte Leichensäcke. Das Leben in der aufgegebenen Goldmine in Stilfontein muss die Hölle gewesen sein. Bei einer gerichtlich angeordneten Rettungsaktion wurden 248 Bergleute lebend ans Tageslicht gebracht, für 87 kam jede Hilfe zu spät. Die Kritik am Vorgehen von Regierung und Polizei wird immer lauter. Menschenrechtsorganisationen sprechen vom schlimmsten Massaker seit dem Ende der Apartheid und verlangen eine unabhängige Untersuchung, damit die Verantwortlichen zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden können. Einstweilen geht die gefährliche Suche nach Gold weiter, auch die Tragödie von Stilfontein vermochte sie nicht zu beenden. Denn der illegale Bergbau ist ein Milliardengeschäft, gesteuert von internationalen Verbrechersyndikaten. Und an Bergleuten mangelt es nicht: Die meisten kommen aus armen Nachbarländern wie Mosambik, Simbabwe oder Lesotho. Sie suchen in den verlassenen Goldminen Südafrikas nach einem besseren Leben.

Herded by Miracles: An only child, a burden to her single mother and born in South Africa in the middle of a war, the author had to discern life's purpose by living it. She rides through the widest emotional landscapes of contrast: the Apartheid conflict between black and white, between Boer and British, and the disconnect between African and European cultures, the generosity of strangers, the betrayal of friends, and rejection by family. Through all these mirrors, the patchwork pilgrimage is towards the transcendent lovingness of Creation. We all have a lamp to trim for the coming of our bridegroom. This harrowing but often humorous chronicle (God tells good stories with both wit and parody) is one such Trimming. Its natural mysticism emerges like smoke from damp leaves. Only the inspiration of George Eliot and her nostalgic portraits of England's ancient antiquity and its unsung heroes kept her company, affirmed her independence of mind, and fostered a new Book of Revelations

John Maytham speaks to Dr. Amber Reed, a cultural anthropologist and researcher with a Ph.D. from UCLA, about how her work in rural schools and urban advocacy organizations paints a striking portrait of political ambivalence in contemporary South Africa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when a young man born into the chaos of apartheid South Africa embarks on a spiritual quest that intersects with the counterculture revolution of the 1960s? Michael Shandler's remarkable life story unfolds as he guides us through his transformation from a struggling teen in a violent household to an accomplished author, life coach, and organizational consultant.Growing up Jewish in apartheid South Africa, Michael faced both family dysfunction and societal hostility. His Holocaust-survivor mother and PTSD-affected father created a volatile home environment, while outside, anti-Semitism followed him from school to the South African army. After a pivotal moment where he physically confronted his abusive father—leading to a 16-year estrangement—Michael found himself searching for meaning beyond his restrictive homeland.His path led him through Israel during the aftermath of the Six-Day War, then to Vancouver in 1968, ground zero for consciousness exploration. There, psychedelic experiences opened doors to spiritual awakening, eventually connecting him with Ram Dass (formerly Richard Alpert), who became a profoundly influential mentor. Michael's vivid account of his first mescaline trip, where he surrendered to a "python" of transformative energy, marks the beginning of his conscious spiritual journey.The heart of Michael's story lies in healing and reconciliation. After sixteen years without contact, he reconnected with his father, who offered the wisdom: "If you want a relationship with me, it must begin today and go forward." This present-focused approach to forgiveness gave them sixteen meaningful years together before his father's passing.Michael's journey reminds us that no matter how challenging our circumstances, transformation is possible. Through small steps, self-reflection, and openness to new opportunities, we can transcend our past and create meaning from our struggles. His memoir "Karma and Kismet" offers not just an extraordinary life story, but a roadmap for anyone seeking purpose and healing in their own life.Join the What if it Did Work movement on FacebookGet the Book!www.omarmedrano.comwww.calendly.com/omarmedrano/15min

“Travel does not require leaving your city or state or country, but it does require leaving your comfort zone. And that can happen a block or two away from where you live.” –Chloe Cooper Jones In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Chloe talk about why a section about “slum tourism” was cut out of Rolf’s newest book The Vagabond’s Way (2:30); how so much of what we talk about when we talk about travel has industrialized middle-class presumptions (7:30); the motivations and ethical considerations that underpin seeking out disadvantaged neighborhoods as a traveler (15:00); how preconceived narratives and “cultural extraction” often motivates people’s experience in a city, in ways that do not always benefit the city (25:00); what “dark tourism” and “voluntourism” are, and what the ethical ramifications are for travelers (32:00); and the difference between articulating ideals, and the work of acting on those ideals (45:00). Chloe Cooper Jones (@CCooperJones) is the author of Easy Beauty: A Memoir. She has been a Pulitzer Prize finalist in Feature Writing, and was the recipient of a Whiting Creative Nonfiction Grant, as well as a Howard Foundation Grant from Brown University.
