Podcasts about Carr

In 2021, Netflix released His Dark Material, a Christmas stand-up special by Irish–British comedian Jimmy Carr. The show sparked international outrage. Toward the end of the set, Carr delivered what he called a ‘career ender' – a joke about the Holocaust, in which he described the Nazis' murder of thousands of ‘Gypsies' as a ‘positive'. The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, the Auschwitz Memorial, and the UK government condemned the joke as ‘appalling', ‘abhorrent', and ‘racist'; Carr, critics said, was trading on the ‘last acceptable form of racism'. Comedy touches every part of our lives. We tell jokes at the pub, around the dinner table, and by the office coffee machine. We all know someone who makes us laugh – and someone who seems to take things too far. But is there a line when it comes to humour? And if there is, who gets to draw it? Should we suspend our moral judgements when the lights go down and the curtain goes up? Or do jokes, like most speech acts, carry moral weight? To answer these questions, we need to understand the nature of comedy itself – what exactly it is we're responding to when we laugh. Humour might be a release of nervous tension, a playful disruption of expectations, or – more troublingly, if it applies to Carr's joke – a means of asserting social superiority. No doubt, comedy has the power to shape our culture and perceptions. But, as we'll find out, it also tells us something about who we are, who we ought to be, and the things we value most.

This episode discusses physical activity and its role in preventing chronic disease, featuring an interview with Dr. Lucas Carr, an associate professor of Health and Human Physiology at the University of Iowa and leading researcher in lifestyle interventions and health behavior change. Key points include: Dr. Carr's research focuses on the behavior science behind habit formation and helping people find enjoyable, sustainable ways to be physically active as a means of prevention. His team has implemented a system to treat physical activity as a "vital sign" in healthcare settings, screening patients and connecting inactive individuals with free health coaching resources. Data from over 60,000 patients shows those who are physically active (150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous activity) have significantly lower risks of 19 different chronic health conditions. Practical advice is to find physical activities you genuinely enjoy, as you're more likely to stick to something you find pleasant and rewarding.

We all know that women and men are monoliths, right? Women like shoes and the government controlling their bodies; men like muscled-up NFTs of Donald Trump and bench-pressing bitcoin. But what if people aren't on this straight black-and-white binary? Candy Darling, born James Slattery, defied societal expectations and chose to live her life as a superstar along the lines of her favorite actor Kim Novak. Darling was one of Andy Warhol's last “superstars,” until her untimely death from cancer at the age of 29 in 1974. Strange Country cohosts Beth and Kelly discuss how Darling straddled two very different worlds; one where she hobnobbed in Warhol's inner circle and one where she relied on friends and acquaintances' couches because she had no money.

Top Stories for August 5th Publish Date: August 5th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, August 5th and Happy Birthday to Neil Armstrong I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Gwinnett Tech program helps fill critical need for respiratory therapists Mercer Earns Commitment from Hebron Christian's Devon Caldwell School is back in session for Buford, Gwinnett students All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett Tech program helps fill critical need for respiratory therapists Now more than ever, respiratory therapists are essential—hospitals, clinics, assisted-living facilities, you name it. They’re the ones keeping people breathing, literally. And Gwinnett Tech’s Respiratory Care program? It’s leading the charge. In just 14 months, students can earn an associate degree and step into a field where demand is sky-high. The program’s no joke—12-hour clinical shifts, classroom work, and prepping for national board exams. Grueling? Sure. But worth it. The accolades speak volumes: national awards, a 100% credentialing success rate, and partnerships with top hospitals. Classes start in January. Ready to make a difference? STORY 2: Mercer Earns Commitment from Hebron Christian's Devon Caldwell Hebron Christian’s Devon Caldwell is heading to Mercer University, making his commitment official on Sunday. And honestly? Mercer’s getting a star. Last season, Caldwell was unstoppable—1,458 rushing yards, 23 touchdowns, plus 12 catches for 121 yards and another score. Oh, and did we mention he helped lead Hebron to its first-ever state championship? Yeah, no big deal. But here’s the kicker: the guy’s not just a beast on the field. He’s rocking a 4.4 GPA. How does he even sleep? Mercer’s not just getting an athlete—they’re getting a leader, a workhorse, and, let’s be real, probably a future team captain. STORY 3: School is back in session for Buford, Gwinnett students August is here, and with it comes the bittersweet end of summer break. Sure, the heat’s still relentless, but for kids in Gwinnett County and Buford, it’s back to the grind—school’s in session. Buford students kicked things off Friday, while Gwinnett students headed back on Monday. This year, safety’s a big focus. Gwinnett’s adding weapons detection systems and more resource officers, while Buford’s enforcing clear book bags—no stickers allowed. Meanwhile, schools are getting upgrades: new labs, fresh roofs, and even a cafeteria makeover. Oh, and 15 schools have new principals. Drivers? Slow down. School zones are watching. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: William Byron saves fuel to the max in suspenseful NASCAR Cup win at Iowa Chaos, cautions, and a whole lot of fuel-saving magic. That’s how William Byron snagged his second win of the season Sunday at the Iowa Corn 350. Seriously, 144 laps on one tank? At a track where 100 laps is the norm? Unreal. Byron held off Chase Briscoe, Brad Keselowski, and Ryan Blaney in a nail-biter finish, crossing the line 1.192 seconds ahead. His No. 24 Chevy? It ran dry during the burnout—talk about cutting it close. Seven cautions in the final stage helped Byron stretch his fuel, while Briscoe and Keselowski couldn’t quite catch him. Next up? Watkins Glen. The Playoff race is heating up. STORY 5: Once the magnet that fueled Gwinnett’s growth, the Gwinnett County Public School System is working to get back on an even keel In 2014, Gwinnett County Public Schools snagged its second Broad Prize for Urban Education—a big deal, recognizing schools that lift up low-income and minority students. Only Gwinnett and Houston, Texas, have won it twice. But that was then. Since those glory days, Gwinnett’s changed—more people, more diversity, and a political shift that flipped the school board from Republican to Democratic control. With new leadership came new policies, and, well, growing pains. Critics point to leadership turnover (two fired superintendents in four years), discipline issues, and lagging reading scores. Supporters? They say the system’s evolving, not crumbling. Interim Superintendent Al Taylor is trying to steady the ship. “Stability doesn’t mean stagnation,” he says. The challenges are real—teacher retention, class sizes, absenteeism—but the board insists students remain the focus. School starts this week. The work continues. STORY 6: Eli White homers twice as Braves take checkered flag in Speedway Classic Eli White? Man, he was on fire. Two homers—two!—to push the Braves past the Reds, 4-2, in this wild Speedway Classic at Bristol. Baseball at a racetrack? Sure, why not. The game actually started Saturday but got paused—bottom of the first, no less. Sunday? Clear skies, no drama, just baseball. Oh, and history: first MLB game in Tennessee. Crowd? Supposedly 91,000 tickets sold, but Sunday’s turnout? Let’s just say it wasn’t packed. White crushed a three-run bomb in the fifth, then a solo shot in the seventh. Six homers this season now. Hurston Waldrep, fresh from Triple-A, snagged the win. His MLB debut? Solid—5 2/3 innings, one run. Raisel Iglesias? Nails in the ninth for save #14. The Reds? They had chances—loaded the bases in the eighth—but couldn’t cash in. STORY 7: ART BEAT: Norcross Gallery and Studio's 'Drawing Attention' attracts regional exhibiting artists Gwinnett’s arts scene? It’s more than just local flair—it’s a magnet, pulling in folks from all over. And the stories behind the art? They’re what make it sing. Take Haiqi Carr, for example. Born in Shanghai, she carried her love of art halfway across the world. But it wasn’t until she landed in Atlanta—thanks to her husband’s job—that she finally gave herself permission to dive in. “I’d spent my life checking boxes—daughter, wife, mom. Art? That was for later,” she said. “Then one day, I just… started.” Fast forward: her charcoal portrait, Yamaguchi, is now in Norcross Gallery’s “Drawing Attention” exhibit. It’s a nod to Yamaguchi Momoe, a Japanese icon from Carr’s childhood. “Her smile—it’s pure nostalgia for me,” Carr shared. The exhibit runs through Aug. 23. Go see it. Seriously. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break 4: Ingles Markets Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

A new season of Notre Dame football brings the return of a new season of Pod of Gold, where the South Bend Tribune's Mike Berardino and Tom Noie and WNDU's Jackson Neill discuss everything Irish. There was plenty to ponder in this early August episode. What are the early impressions of preseason camp, specifically, how good can that Notre Dame defense be in 2025? How about the offensive line? Then, there's the little issue of the quarterback competition, and who might have the early edge between C.J. Carr and Kenny Minchey. We also discuss the future - or lack thereof - of the Notre Dame/USC rivalry.

Top Stories for August 2nd Publish Date: August 2nd From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, August 2nd and Happy Birthday to Carroll O’Connor I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. State obtains indictment against Cobb County clerk Study says Dacula is one of America's five safest suburbs, Buford also in top 10 Georgia Power seeking certification of new energy projects Plus, the Stripers report with JR Ritchie, starter in the MLB All-Star Futures Game and the Braves’ No. 2 prospect All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! ---------------------- Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG ---------------------- STORY 1: State obtains indictment against Cobb County clerk  Cobb County Court Clerk Connie Taylor was indicted Thursday, accused of ordering the destruction of government emails and financial records in 2022. The charges? Two counts each of destroying public records and violating her oath of office. The allegations stem from an open records request in October 2022. Taylor allegedly told an employee to delete the documents. Calls to Taylor’s office Thursday? Dodged. One staffer even forwarded a call to a local newspaper. The GBI and Carr’s White Collar and Cyber Crime Unit presented evidence to a grand jury, leading to the indictment. For now, Taylor is presumed innocent, but the case has echoes of a 2019 conviction Carr secured against a former Atlanta press secretary for delaying open records. Transparency, it seems, remains a battle. STORY 2: Study says Dacula is one of America's five safest suburbs, Buford also in top 10 If you live in Dacula or Buford, you’ve got bragging rights—both suburbs just ranked among the safest in America, according to a new study by SmartAsset. Dacula snagged the No. 5 spot, with Buford right behind at No. 6. Not bad, right? The study looked at everything from violent and property crime rates to traffic deaths, drug overdoses, and even excessive drinking. Dacula’s numbers? Just 0.0017 violent crimes per capita and 0.0062 property crimes. Buford wasn’t far off, but Dacula edged it out. Both cities tied in other categories, like traffic deaths (9.34 per 100,000) and overdose rates. Oh, and housing? Dacula’s median monthly cost is $1,547, while Buford’s is a bit lower at $1,300. Georgia had a few other cities in the rankings—Canton at No. 20, Acworth at 63—but Dacula and Buford are clearly leading the pack. STORY 3: Georgia Power seeking certification of new energy projects Georgia Power is making big moves, asking state regulators to greenlight nearly 10,000 megawatts of new energy projects. That’s a lot of power—enough to keep millions of homes and businesses running, no matter the weather. Most of it—about 8,000 megawatts—comes from projects already approved in 2022, including natural gas plants, solar paired with batteries, and standalone battery storage systems. Another 1,886 megawatts comes from this year’s plans, with similar projects in the mix. But not everyone’s thrilled. Environmental groups argue the new gas turbines double down on fossil fuels instead of pushing harder for renewables. Still, Georgia Power is leaning into battery storage, with projects underway in Bibb, Lowndes, Floyd, and Cherokee counties—and more on the way. The PSC will hold hearings this fall, with a final vote in December. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back ---------------------- Break 2: Ingles Markets ---------------------- STRIPERS INTERVIEW STORY 6: GCPS Community-Based Mentoring Program seeking volunteers The Gwinnett County Public Schools Community-Based Mentoring Program is on the hunt for 200 volunteers to step up and mentor students during the 2025-26 school year. Now in its 16th year, the program has already made a huge impact—last year alone, it supported over 2,550 students in grades 4-12. “It was one of our best years yet,” says James Rayford, the program’s director. They reached every high school, middle school, and all 20 clusters, with a 100% graduation rate for two years running. This year? They’re aiming even higher, adding job-shadowing and internships to the mix. The idea is simple but powerful: one caring adult can change a child’s life. Volunteers can mentor one-on-one or in small groups, helping students build confidence, communication skills, and a sense of belonging. STORY 7: Beyond the classroom: GGC interns gain invaluable real-world experience Summer internships aren’t just résumé fluff—they’re where classroom theory meets the messy, unpredictable real world. For Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) students, it’s a chance to figure out what they love (or don’t) and grow in ways they didn’t expect. Take Kimberly Ramirez, a senior marketing major. “I thought marketing was just ads and social media,” she admits. Turns out, it’s strategy, planning, and making decisions that actually matter. Her internship at InTouch Financial Group? A game-changer. She even runs bilingual webinars—Marketing Monday—teaching agents how to market themselves. Then there’s Joceyln Rubio-Camacho, a finance major. Forget the cubicle stereotype. At Majors Management, she’s learned accounting is as much about people as it is spreadsheets. For cinema major Tony Arreaga, interning at Crazy Legs Production in Atlanta has been a whirlwind. One day he’s hauling props in a box truck; the next, he’s designing sets for a Netflix documentary. “It’s a lot like the Marines,” says the 10-year veteran. “Managing people, equipment, locations—it’s all about discipline.” And Emily Zboran? She’s diving into project management at Majors Management, juggling tasks solo while her bosses travel. “I’ve learned to prioritize, organize, and trust myself,” she says. The takeaway? Internships are tough to land, but worth it.

DAN FESPERMAN chats to Paul Burke about his new spy novel PARIAH, Eastern Europe, fiction as the second draft of history, facades of democracy, comedy and Hollywood, The Baltimore Banner.Pariah: an adrenaline-fueled thriller about a disgraced comedian-turned-politician who takes on the role of a lifetime: infiltrating a corrupt Eastern European country to spy on their brutal dictator. Hal Knight, a comedian and movie star-turned politician, is no stranger to controversy. But after an embarrassing and humiliating encounter on set, Knight resigns from Congress, quits social media, and disappears to the tiny Caribbean island of Vieques to drink dirty martinis and nurse his wounds. Shortly after his arrival, he is approached by a trio of CIA operatives hoping to recruit him to infiltrate the power structure of Bolrovia--a hostile, Eastern European country whose despotic president, Nikolai Horvatz, happens to be a longtime fan of Knight's adolescent male humor. Knowing that Horvatz plans to invite the disgraced star for an official visit, the CIA coaxes Knight to accept. Skeptical, but with little to lose, Knight accepts the challenge, sensing this might be his one chance to do something worthwhile, even if no one else ever finds out. Upon arrival as President Horvatz's guest of honor, Knight confronts his ultimate acting challenge. What begins as an assignment to keep his eyes and ears open quickly turns into a life-or-death battle of wits, with consequences reaching all the way to Washington. With Pariah, Dan Fesperman has crafted a heart-pounding thriller about espionage, entertainment, and one man's pursuit of redemption.Dan Fesperman  served as a foreign correspondent for The Baltimore Sun, based in Berlin. His coverage of the siege of Sarajevo led to his debut novel, Lie in the Dark, which won Britain's John Creasey Memorial Dagger Award for best first crime novel.

The weaponization of the judiciary, cultural institutions, and federal agencies threatens deeper fissures. As demographic shifts challenge already fragile power hierarchies in places like Texas, the backlash grows, manifesting in state repression and ideological crusades. This week, "In Class with Carr" looks to historical memory to remind us that Governance formations can and must be reimagined with a focus on relational citizenship rather than always deeply flawed racial state structures.

President Trump told reporters before departing from Scotland that Jeffrey Epstein poached workers from his Mar-a-Lago spa. Mr. Trump mentioned Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein's most vocal accusers, in his latest remarks. A CBS News review raises questions about footage of Jeffrey Epstein's jail cell and what officials claim it shows. CBS News Department of Justice correspondent Scott MacFarlane explains. Extreme heat is the deadliest weather-related threat in the U.S. In Phoenix, where heat kills more people than homicides each year, the fire department is creating a model for the country in the battle against heatstroke, by using bags of ice. CBS News' Ben Tracy reports on this low-tech approach. New CDC data shows nearly 1 in 3 teens had prediabetes in 2023. Dr. Celine Gounder joins "CBS Mornings" to explain what's driving the rise and what it means for long-term health.

The Cultural Meaning Making trope of Superman, especially as a trope used in US white nationalism, serves as a point of entry to consider power, collective identity and belief in the US Social Structure. In a moment in US and global history especially fraught with mass and social media manipulation, how can we leverage the momentum of memory to empower alternative visions of self-determination? Critical white nationalist reaction to the latest “Superman” movie reminds us of the US's persistent need for savior figures, often racialized to uphold white nationalist ideologies.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the 2025 Supreme Court term, Justice Ketanji Onyika Brown Jackson authored more dissents than any of her colleagues, offering a searing critique of expanding executive power and the erosion of constitutional norms and the Rule of Law. This week we focus on her dissent in Trump v. CASA, the White Nationalist frontal assault on birthright citizenship, placing Brown Jackson's dissent in historical context. Her dissents represent a form of intellectual resistance—urgent, unflinching, and deeply rooted in the very framework and principles now being overtly obviated by the Supreme Court's majority and more accommodated by those who oppose them less directly. Her words offer lessons for integrity in a moment where both the concept of “America” and the reconfiguration of the United States' role in the Contemporary World System is increasingly marked by institutional instability and authoritarian retreat.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Co-hosts Patrick Halley, WIA CEO and President, and Jim Fryer, Inside Towers Managing Editor, recently chatted with Arpan Sura, Senior Counsel to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and Chief AI Officer, on their Wireless Water Cooler podcast.  In this lively talk, Sura discusses a variety of issues including the Commission's Build America agenda focused on unleashing high-speed infrastructure builds, restoring America's leadership in wireless, and strengthening America's tower and telecom workforce. Sura also discusses Carr's “Delete, Delete, Delete” initiative, focused on eliminating outdated and unnecessary regulations, among many other priorities.Support the show

The United States once again finds itself metaphorically “on the ropes,” staggering beneath the weight of white nationalism and nativist logics, elite-driven legislation, electoral political theater, digital mass media distortion, and deepening economic, social, and cultural divides. Buffeted by increasingly powerful international forces, is the idea of a US counterpunch more delusion than reality? Can the various groups in the US rediscover their best moments of clarity of collective purpose in order to push back oppressive forces, or have both the country and the people in it already punched themselves out? The two-week ritual corridor from Juneteenth to Independence Day is symbolized by the 1910 Jack Johnson–Jim Jeffries “Fight of the Century,” where African racial pride met white panic in full and deadly public view. Today's avatars —from politicians to marching bands defying the narrative—continue to represent resistance. Like Bobby Blue Bland's silken lament in “I Pity the Fool,” the momentum of memory to be found in our cultural meaning-making enables unfiltered introspection on shame, resilience, and the never-ending determination to renegotiate the ever-fracturing terms of the US social structure.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Carl Quintanilla, Sara Eisen, and David Faber began the show with a look at another record close for the S&P and Nasdaq, following a busy week of earnings. The desk also discussed President Trump's visit to the Federal Reserve, where he sparred with Powell over renovation costs, but backed off his firing threats. CNBC reporter Kristina Partsinevelos also joined the show to discuss a big drop for Intel post results, as the company continues its turnaround efforts. After the opening bells, FCC Chair Carr joined the program first on CNBC to discuss his group's decision to greenlight the $8 billion Paramount-Skydance deal. Squawk on the Street Disclaimer

Scot and Buzz were joined tonight by former State Representative and former U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, BJay Pak. Pak shared his expertise on how alleged Ponzi scheme cases usually play out. We hope you find it enlightening, because we sure did. Other topics included: John King drops out of the U.S. Senate race. Is Derek Dooley jumping in? Where is Governor Kemp in all this? Kelvin King is running for SOS. Carr's complaint against Jones is tossed.

The final US Supreme Court decisions of the term continue the assault on Reconstruction-era federal law, suborning the “neo-Confederate” agenda of reasserting racialized citizenship and dismantling protections clearly intended to be enshrined in US law in the Reconstruction Constitutional amendments. By restricting judicial orders to named plaintiffs, the Court once again attempts to curb collective legal remedy, hinting perhaps that the next step may be a frontal assault on birthright citizenship. These maneuvers are not isolated; they reflect a broader effort to preserve legal standing for whiteness. As politically backward states like South Carolina restrict access to health care and religious zealots seek the Court's blessing to opt out of tolerance for others, the messages seem clear: Protect a narrow ideological whiteness, shield elite interests, and suppress the multiracial majority through judicial capture. This week's New York City mayoral primary signaled that such a strategy is doomed to long-term failure when people mobilize to resist. A central question lingers: What does freedom mean now, and for whom?JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The annual period between June 19 and July 4 in the US should be viewed as a time when we read Africana Governance formations against contemporary Social Structures that seek to oppress and restrict human possibilities. Juneteenth is a powerful, living ritual of African self-determination that remembers and reiterates freedom as a Ways of Knowing rooted in self-governance and collective memory. This stands in stark contrast to fantasies of “independence” that follow it on July 4th.This sacred corridor of time, tracing from Port 21 on Galveston Bay to Houston's Freedmen's Town and beyond, reveals and embodies African traditions of convening, storytelling, and liberation. The rituals reveal contradictions of state power—from a US citizenry terrorized by masked would-be secret police to an inversion of “states rights” arguments where fascism is rejected from the margins rather than the center, exposing the weaknesses of a system hell bent on repression.In this moment, Texas serves as a metaphor: a site of contested sovereignty where those human trafficked fought their way out of captivity, simultaneously building enduring communities and institutions despite ongoing threats. Movement and Memory efforts like the Juneteenth Legacy Project, the Houston Freedmen's Town Conservancy, and the African American History Research Library at the Gregory School activate a corridor from emancipation to freedom, centering economic, cultural and political self-determination, education, faith, and art.To engage Juneteenth is to be present, to listen deeply to people, and to speak clearly and vulnerably, because each one of us matters. In this way, Juneteenth is not only a celebration but an unyielding act of liberation by and for Black people ourselves.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As global crises and US domestic reckonings intensify, the New York Community Commission on Reparations Remedies met this week at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, drawing attention to the urgent need to reimagine repair—not merely as restitution, but as a process of decolonization and rehumanization in a fractured United States and world. Reparations is not simply (or even primarily) about monetary compensation, but about dismantling systems of harm and colonization that still define the American state and the world system out of which it emerged and which it anchors.Literal and figurative disasters persist around the globe. Forces in the US intensify the ongoing Cold Civil War—fractured by ideological extremism, geopolitical escalations like Israel's bombing of Iran and China's projection of its Navy Aircraft Carriers into the Pacific, and performative nationalism seen in spectacles like the Trump Army Parade in Washington, DC, among others. But resistance rises. Federal District Court Judge Charles Breyer's ruling against the federalization of the California National Guard by the Trump Administration and thousands of “No More Kings” rallies across the country present formal and organic resistance in a darkening US political landscape. The 100th anniversary of the Schomburg Center gives us a moments to reinforce the fact that we must search our collective memory in order to strengthen our vision of a different country and make better decisions for how to engage politically.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Black self-determination and liberation requires a holistic and strategic integration of political power, cultural memory, and economic self-determination. Across a week of reflection, convenings, and engagement, from Birmingham's Civil Rights Historical District to Atlanta's Sweet Auburn Avenue to Daytona's Paul Laurence Dunbar House and Wilberforce Ohio's National Afro American Museum and Cultural Center, we center the urgency of reclaiming and redefining learning, community, citizenship, institution building and governance on African terms.The Ballot represents more than just voting, though that is an essential element of civic participation: It symbolizes collective potential power. The long fight against voter suppression is revealed by the fracturing myth of inclusion within a settler colonial state to be a potent weapon for realizing collective power. As W.E.B. Du Bois and others demonstrate, the struggle for political power is communitarian, not individualist—and the US South remains a battleground, not of defeat, but of underutilized potential.The Book highlights the liberatory role of education, historical memory, and cultural knowledge. Case studies of figures like Martin Delany show how Black communities must resist erasure and re-center themselves as global actors in a world system undergoing transformation. Reclaiming narratives that fostering an understanding of internal governance formations is necessary to recover agency.The Buck calls for an economic awakening—exposing capitalism's lie of meritocracy and the theft of public wealth. Reimagining collective economics through community interdependence, strategic ownership, and global solidarity becomes a compelling path forward. From the ruins of racial capitalism, a new economic ethos must emerge, rooted in mutual aid and sovereignty.Voting, reading, and spending must be done with vision and unity. “We'll find a way, or make one” is not merely a slogan—it's a generational imperative in the ongoing struggle to complete the unfinished work of Black freedom and transformation.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
