My voice doesn't count for anything!” Many Christians and non-Christians espouse that voting is a waste of time and energy.

Dr. Woods shares some very important biblical principles on how we should fulfill our roles as citizens. He reminds us we are called to be salt and light in our sphere of influence.

Just two days after Ireland's latest election, Philip joins us to unpack the results and emerging trends. 

With Peter Gelderloos and Vicky Osterweil. Whether it is in the fight against police violence, ecological destruction, or any other manifestation of patriarchal white supremacy, time and again, the hard-earned lessons of past struggles seem to get forgotten. Our social movements are capable of generating significant momentum, moments of far-reaching revolt, but we suffer from a kind of amnesia - an inability to pass on lessons learned from one generation to the next. And so each new wave of activism starts from scratch, disconnected from the strategies, successes, and failures of those that came before. In this episode, we discuss the strategic imposition of nonviolence and other pacification techniques used by the state. We talk about revolutionary imagination, mutual aid, and what gets left out of official histories of struggle, from the Civil Rights era to the George Floyd uprisings. We discuss the need to make space for both joy and grief in our movements, and the importance of physical place to building collective memory. --- Peter Gelderloos is a writer and social movement participant. He is the author of They Will Beat the Memory Out of Us: Forcing Nonviolence on Forgetful Movements, The Solutions are Already Here: Strategies for Ecological Revolution from Below, How Nonviolence Protects the State, Anarchy Works, The Failure of Non-Violence, and Worshiping Power: An Anarchist View of Early State Formation. Vicky Osterweil is a writer, worker and agitator based in Philadelphia. She is the author of In Defense of Looting: A Riotous History of Uncivil Action (Bold Type Books) and an upcoming book about Intellectual Property and the corporate domination of culture, The Extended Universe, which is due to be published by Haymarket in 2025.

What Could a Trump 2.0 Administration Mean for Teachers and Students Across the Country?This week we're taking a hard look at the potential implications of a second term for former President Donald Trump on education in the United States. From funding overhauls to student safety, we explore how changes at the federal level could impact teachers, students, and educational institutions nationwide. We discuss new proposals for universal school choice programs, changes to student loan repayment programs, potential rollbacks of consumer protections and regulations for for-profit colleges and universities, and likely changes to Title IX.We are also updating listeners on the substantial cost of cultural and ideological conflicts in education; recent reporting from the Guardian estimates that U.S. taxpayers are bearing billions in costs due to schools combating misinformation and addressing attacks from various activist groups. Potential appointments for the Secretary of Education—figures who support book bans and restrictive educational policies—could further challenge freedom of expression and access to diverse educational materials.Significant changes to the Department of Education are complex and require legislative action. While a president cannot unilaterally eliminate a federal department, there is room for executive actions that can alter how the department operates. We discuss the mechanisms through which federal education policies can change and what that means for schools across the country.

We start with breaking economic news about a key inflation indicator. President-elect Donald Trump has made some eyebrow raising administration picks, but they could face some challenges in Congress. Israel says it's expanded its ground offensive in Lebanon. We'll tell you what to expect as President Joe Biden prepares to meet with China's leader for the last time. The FBI is offering a $25,000 reward for information about ballot box fires. Plus, we look at whether people are leaving X for a new social media site. Learn more about your ad choices.
