Oakland's Police Department has been under federal oversight since 2003. The oversight began after a civil rights lawsuit was filed on behalf of 119 residents, most of them Black men, who alleged that multiple Oakland police officers had beaten and planted evidence on them.Yesterday we heard from Darwin BondGraham, news editor at The Oaklandside and co-author of the book, "The Riders Come Out At Night," an exhaustive history of decades of corruption inside the OPD.Today, we hear from John Burris, one of the civil rights attorneys who represented those residents and spearheaded the legal fight to reform the Oakland Police Department. Burris says the department has been reformed.

When Aaron Burris walks into the dining room of the Inside Circle Healing Home, he feels two things at once — joy and grief. Joy because a dream that was born in prison circles, in chapel chairs, in hushed conversations about what if we built something — is now real. Grief because some of the men who dreamed it with him didn't make it out to see it. In this conversation, Aaron sits down with Eldra Jackson III to talk about what it really takes to come home after incarceration — not just physically, but as a person. He talks about Butch, a man who knew how to navigate every system inside prison walls and couldn't survive the one outside them. About the near-misses in his own decade of freedom. About the question that has become the center of his healing work: Who am I without prison? The Inside Circle Healing Home isn't a halfway house. It's not a program. It's a place where men coming out of incarceration can learn to iron a shirt, balance a budget, ride public transit safely, and — more importantly — figure out who they are when nobody's watching. This is the story of how it got built, who it's built for, and what it means to plant a seed for a tree you may never sit under.
In this episode, I'm joined by Ethan Burris (UT-Austin) to discuss his new AMJ paper, which explores a straightforward question with important implications: when employees raise concerns on behalf of others rather than themselves, do managers actually discount that "hearsay" the way conventional wisdom suggests they should?

Justification comes not by self-righteous works but humble repentant faith. Preached on May 24th, 2026
In this deeply grounding and insightful episode, I'm joined by Cameron Burris, a licensed therapist, clinical herbalist, and community care advocate who specializes in nervous system support for high achievers, those who often feel the pressure to over-function, over-give, and constantly perform.Together, we explore the connection between burnout, chronic stress, and the nervous system, and how many of us have been conditioned to operate in ways that disconnect us from our bodies. This conversation gently challenges the idea that productivity equals worth and offers a new, more sustainable way of being. We dive into how over-functioning shows up in both the mind and body, the subtle signs of nervous system dysregulation, and what it actually means to feel safe enough to slow down. You'll also hear how holistic practices like herbalism, yoga, sacred movement, and even gardening can support deep regulation and healing.Whether you identify as a high achiever, the “strong one,” or someone learning to unlearn burnout patterns, this episode offers both education and practical tools to help you reconnect with your body and respond to life with more intention and ease.Connect with Cameron:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therapywithcamJoin Overfunctioners Anonymous: https://www.quietcontemplationllc.com/overfunctioners-anonymous?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioWork with Cam: https://tr.ee/0z-0y0hqmu✨ Stay Connected with Shots of Serenity ✨Thank you so much for tuning in!

You have probably heard of the concept of psychological safety and what it takes to foster it on your team and in spaces you lead.Maybe you've read books or taken trainings. Here's the tricky thing: psychological safety is an emergent quality of the group environment, shaped by leadership behaviors and team norms. You, as the leader, are a key variable. So when you walk into a high-stakes meeting, and your self-protective parts are running the show? It impacts everyone around you and whether they can experience psychological safety.The only way that we can cultivate psychological safety outside of us, is to cultivate self-leadership within. When we can move from a place of authenticity and courage, rather than discomfort or fear, the people around us feel seen, heard, and connected. They have trust. They feel safe.Today my guest and I are talking about what it actually takes to lead groups and teams well, and the hard, necessary work of leading yourself first. Chris Burris, M.Ed., LCMHCS, LMFT, is a Senior Lead Trainer for the Internal Family Systems Institute. He has spent decades bringing the IFS model into groups and teams, not just the therapy room. He has trained close to 200 facilitators across 18 group facilitator trainings worldwide. He is the author of Creating Healing Circles: Using the Internal Family Systems Model in Facilitating Groups. Listen to the full episode to hear:How empathy, tempered with understanding our purpose and boundaries, helps us lead betterWhy recognizing and acknowledging others' emotions is not the same as taking responsibility for themWhat changes when leaders make an effort to understand the deeper origins of behaviorsHow IFS provides a model for addressing conflict in groups The importance of learning to recognize when you're activated and suggestions for approaching repair with others when neededHow team leaders can shape dynamics that are clear, purposeful, and supportive, even through disagreements and differencesLearn more about Chris Burris:WebsiteLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth, Amy C EdmondsonCarl RogersIntraconnected: Mwe (Me + We) as the Integration of Self, Identity, and Belonging, Daniel J.

Vouchers are 'the new kid on the block' for public education threats, but the executive director of the Network for Public Education says while everyone's eyes are on vouchers, harmful charter school legislation has continued to pass nationwide, taking those publicly-funded schools farther and farther from the promise of what they were supposed to be.

(00:00-28:57) – Query & Company opens on a Thursday with Jake Query and producer Eddie Garrison talking about Bennedict Mathurin’s performance last night against the Indiana Pacers in his first game against the team that drafted him. Jake also comments on the wins for Purdue and Indiana last night in their second to final regular season game before the Big Ten Tournament. (28:57-34:32) – Whilst at the gym last night, someone approached Jake to have a conversation about the Indianapolis Colts, specifically the futures of Alec Pierce and Daniel Jones. He shares what that conversation entailed because there was a different aspect to the situation that he hadn’t considered. (34:32-45:05) – GoldAndBlack.com’s Brian Neubert rounds out the first hour of the show to discuss last night’s nail-biting victory for the Purdue Boilermakers against the Northwestern Wildcats. Jake asks Brian what type of team could really give Purdue fits in the NCAA Tournament, if there is a defensive coverage that Braden Smith hasn’t seen during his collegiate career, and why C.J. Cox had a career night last night in Evanston. (45:05-1:09:13) – The NCAA Tournament is just around the corner and it got Jake thinking. What if there was another way for a team to receive an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament? He proposes his idea to Eddie. Plus, could AJ Dybansta stay at BYU for another season? Jake claims that you shouldn’t rule that possibility out. (1:09:13-1:21:52) – IndyCar Radio Network Driver Analyst, Davey Hamilton, joins Query & Company to preview this weekend’s race for IndyCar in Phoenix for the first time since 2018. Jake also asks Davey about what makes Alex Palou so dominant, if he has ever seen a driver in a zone like Palou is right now and goes back to losing out to Helio Castroneves in the 2021 Indy 500 because that could have changed his approach in the cockpit. (1:21:52-1:27:52) – Hour number two of Query & Company concludes with Jake and Eddie discussing the Chicago Bears trading D.J. Moore to the Buffalo Bills. Is that good news for the Colts? (1:27:52-1:54:08) – Horizon League Interim Commissioner, Chris Neuman, joins Jake Query ahead of the men’s and women’s basketball tournament at Corteva Coliseum this weekend. Jakea asks her about her experience this year as the interim commissioner of the Horizon League, what she enjoys the most about the position, and her future with the league with the next commissioner being decided already. (1:54:08-2:11:50) – Jake pays tribute to the late great Lou Holtz by sharing some tidbits of information that he has learned about the former Notre Dame head coach over the years. Former Fighting Irish & NFL defensive back, Jeff Burris, calls into the program to share how Holtz recruited him to Notre Dame, if he ever addressed his one failure in front of the guys, and shares what he’s doing now that mimics what his college coach would preach to him as a player. (2:11:50-2:14:55) – Today’s show closes out with JMV joining Jake Query to preview his show!Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/query-and-company/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This special episode of The GovNavigators Show features a live conversation with Socure's Jordan Burris, former chief of staff to the Federal CIO, recorded at the Government Executive Federal Technology Priorities Conference.Jordan lays out a stark warning: modern fraud is not a series of isolated schemes, it's an industrialized, AI-enabled ecosystem operating at global scale. He explains how adversaries are using the same large language models, automation, and data-sharing techniques as legitimate organizations to defeat traditional identity controls in days instead of months, creating what he calls a “zero-day” environment for fraud.The discussion explores why long-standing federal fraud defenses are being outpaced, how commercial sectors have pulled ahead, and what agencies can do now to measure risk, modernize verification, and collaborate across silos. With hundreds of billions of dollars at stake each year, Jordan argues the government must move faster, test new approaches, and learn from industries already fighting these threats in real time.If you care about improper payments, digital service delivery, customer experience, or cybersecurity, this is a roadmap for how identity has become the front line.Show Notes:USA Today's story on Socure's age verification workSupreme Court rules against the administration's tariffsICYMI: upcoming changes to 8(a)What's on the GovNavigators' Radar:Feb 24, 2026:Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs Hearing on Security ClearancesState of the Union AddressMar 4, 2026:Alliance for Digital Innovation's Understanding OneGov: Discussions with GSA LeadershipMar 5, 2026:Driving Government Efficiency Summit

Chris Burris is a Senior Lead IFS Trainer and a clinical consultant with decades of experience in mental health and group work. Chris is based in North Carolina and leads training for the IFS Institute and his Creating Healing Circles work worldwide.Last month, Chris joined Jef Szi for an in-depth conversation that illuminates the power, purpose, and benefits of healing with others. Along the way, we get to know the variety of influences and the backstory to Chris's group work, including a need to help his clients have real spaces to work on their social challenges, and Chris's interest in finding new models of authenticity that don't require being hijacked by reactive emotions.You can learn more about his work through his terrific how-to book, Creating Healing Circles.With tremendous kindness and boatloads of reference points, Chris helps us understand why healing circles are an essential tool for healing from traumas and for offsetting the hyper-individualism found in most personal-growth work.Chris teaches us that most traumas arise in relationships and are also healed through supportive, non-threatening contexts where participants can experience others as advocates and allies. He also shows us that well-run Healing Circles can allow participants to test new ways of being that are more cohesive and less isolating.Throughout Healing with Others, Chris offers his grounded perspectives; whether it's on the Internal Family Systems model, the pros and cons of Men's work in the 1980's and 1990's, or how nature is another kind of healing force, we are well instructed by Chris and his extensive knowledge on group work and the healing process.Perhaps the heart of Chris's teaching is the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. In this conversation, he breaks down the model, showing how IFS is a constraint-and-release model whose core notion of an innate Self is characterized by calmness, curiosity, and compassion, and how the various "parts" play a role in protecting the Self. We also learn from Chris and kind way of thinking about our parts, and how these protective and often reactive voices within us frequently eclipse our core energy, leading us to relate to ourselves and others in harsh or critical ways.With Chris, we take another step forward in imagining what it takes to be more cohesive as a society. In this case, the path forward is to challenge our assumptions about the do-it-alone approach. Instead, we are encouraged towards the chance to be with others, dropping in deeply, where trauma and social connections can be transformed as a community. Few are better positioned to show what this path looks like than the heart-centered and wise Chris Burris.Thank you for being on the show, Chris!About Chris Burris: Chris is a Clinical Consultant and Senior Lead Trainer for the Center for Self Leadership. Chris has been a psychotherapist since 1989, working with diverse populations in community agencies, intensive residential centers, institutions of higher learning, and in private practice.He began training in the Internal Family Systems model in 1999 and is currently a Senior Lead Trainer for the Internal Family Systems Institute, where he teaches Level 1, Level II, and Level III trainings and serves as a trainer and mentor for new IFS training staff.Resources:

In the clinic, communication happens before a word is spoken. It unfolds through attention, listening, and the tactile information the body offers when we slow down enough to notice.In this conversation, we explore palpation as a central pillar of acupuncture practice—not simply as a diagnostic tool, but as a way of relating. Drawing from diverse clinical backgrounds and decades of hands-on experience, in this panel discussion we move out of theory and into the wordless language of the body. We explore how palpation becomes a bridge between thinking and sensing, diagnosis and treatment, practitioner and patient.Listen into this conversation as we explore how palpation provides real-time feedback in treatment, how it keeps acupuncture grounded and responsive, the ways in which touch builds trust and rapport, and why listening with the hands can reveal what words and symptoms alone cannot.Attentive touch doesn't just inform our treatments—it changes how we show up to the work itself.
