For the last decade and more, popular outrage at police brutality has driven mass protests in both the Middle East and the West. Opposition to police excesses—from crackdowns on protests in Egypt and Iraq to the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in 2020—has highlighted the need for change.  In this episode of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship”—the new season of Order from Ashes— anthropologist Hayal Akarsu and sociologist Alex Vitale argue that policing crises around the globe are connected; that is, they are all part of one broad crisis with different local permutations. These permutations may include repressive political policing, long-term corruption and ineffectiveness, everyday policing, or a combination of these, as well as economic factors such as increasing inequality. As awareness of the climate crisis deepens, the role of police in protecting corporate interests may become an increasingly prominent feature of the crisis of policing legitimacy.  Police reform is, more than ever before, a global industry, which circulates experts, tools, standards, models, and training programs. As such, police reform is a key part of foreign policy initiatives, diplomacy efforts, and development programs. A transnational framework enables us to see these connections. This podcast is part of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship: Authoritarianism and the Emerging Global Culture of Resistance,” a TCF project supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Open Society Foundations.  Participants include: Hayal Akarsu, assistant professor of anthropology, Utrecht University Alex Vitale, professor of sociology, Brooklyn College and the CUNY Graduate Center Naira Antoun, director, Transnational Trends in Citizenship, Century International

From Poland to the studios of Fox News, reactionaries have recast progressive ideas about gender as a militant “gender ideology” that threatens society and its values. These politicians and pundits stoke this and other “moral panics”—mass frenzies of fear about practices, ideas, or identities that supposedly threaten a country's innocence or moral character.  Moral panics are an increasingly prominent feature of the political landscape around the world, and they increasingly focus on gender. This episode of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship”—the new season of Order from Ashes—draws on examples from Egypt, Poland, and elsewhere to show how leaders, media, and other actors cultivate, promote, and even invent these moral panics. These actors exploit moral panics to rapidly construct social coalitions that might not otherwise coalesce. And in case after case, moral panics are shown to be about power—more policing of the marginalized; stifling social and economic change that would cost the elite; fighting democratic reforms; and redirecting grievances toward scapegoats.  This podcast is part of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship: Authoritarianism and the Emerging Global Culture of Resistance,” a TCF project supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Open Society Foundations.  Participants include: Lobna Darwish, gender and human rights officer, Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights Kate Korycki, assistant professor of gender, sexuality, and women's studies, Western University Canada Naira Antoun, director, Transnational Trends in Citizenship, Century International

A cursory survey of contemporary media, policy, and academic landscapes suggests that we live in an age of militias, in which they are increasingly prevalent actors and a growing political challenge in armed conflicts. But are there really more militias now than ever before? Or is there just more attention given to them?  In this episode of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship”—the new season of Order from Ashes—scholar Jacob Mundy discusses what might be driving the “militiafication” of thinking about mass organized violence. The legacies of “new war” theories and the emerging global order—in which North Atlantic powers no longer call all the shots—are essential to understanding the alleged age of militias.  While there are ways in which militias play an important role in constituting the global terrain of organized violence, this role does not appear to be proportionally larger in recent years than in previous decades. How can we explain, then, the disproportionate intellectual and policy weight given to militias?  This podcast is part of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship: Authoritarianism and the Emerging Global Culture of Resistance,” a TCF project supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Open Society Foundations.  Participants include: Jacob Mundy, associate professor in peace and conflict studies, Colgate University Naira Antoun, director, Transnational Trends in Citizenship, Century International

A decade ago, social media could be seen as a well-spring of democratic innovation and potential.  Events of the last six years may have changed the public's perception on that score, but Katie Harbath warns that social media platforms have much more work to do to protect democracy in the United States and around the world. Harbath is a global leader who works at the intersection of elections, democracy, and tech.  Most recently, she was a public policy director at Facebook where she was credited with building out and leading a global team responsible for managing elections over the course of 10 years.  She played a significant role in building another team of over 30 people that worked to engage governments and elected officials from around the world at the local, regional, and national levels, in using Facebook and Instagram to connect and engage with constituents.  She worked closely with product development teams to deploy civic engagement and election integrity products, including transparency features for political ads, developing and implementing election policies, building teams to support government, political, and advocacy partners, and working with policymakers to shape election regulations online.  Harbath was involved in this work in major elections for every country around the globe, including the United States, India, Brazil, United Kingdom, European Union, Canada, Philippines, and Mexico.  Before joining Facebook, Harbath held senior strategic digital roles at the Republican National Committee, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, DCI Group and multiple campaigns.  She sits on the boards of the National Conference on Citizenship, Democracy Works and the Center for Journalism Ethics at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Discussions of self-styled Islamist armed groups, such as the Islamic State, tend to heavily focus on gender and religion. Yet these elements are almost always never considered in analyses of white supremacist groups. What accounts for this difference and why does it matter? In this episode of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship”—the new season of Order from Ashes—we speak with scholar Amanda Rogers about overlooked aspects of militias and nonstate armed groups in transnational perspective. Common frameworks that emphasize violence do not have the tools to fully understand how these ideological movements function. Important elements that tend to be overlooked in such approaches include gender and religion.   Rogers identifies other gaps in discussions of armed groups: Even though analyses of Islamist groups incldue gender, they usually treat women as peripheral. And wildly different groups—Hezbollah, the Islamic State, al-Qaeda, the Taliban, and Hamas—are treated as the same analytical unit simply because of their supposed connection to Islam. When it comes to white supremacist groups, however, religion is barely considered at all, even thought many o have an explicit religious ideology.  This podcast is part of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship: Authoritarianism and the Emerging Global Culture of Resistance,” a TCF project supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Open Society Foundations.

The Kingdom of God is an ongoing theme of the Gospels — the four biographies of Jesus' life. Jesus taught about it regularly. And while some mistake it as just a reference to a future reality, still others miss its present purpose. Those familiar words — Your kingdom come — came through Jesus as he taught His apostles what we today call the Lord's Prayer. And the stories of Jesus' life preserved for us in Scripture declare how God's kingdom comes to be, how He establishes His reign through Jesus, and how we today are to go about living as its citizens.

Last month, the Israeli Knesset passed a new version of Israel's infamous “Citizenship and Entry into Israel Law.” This law denies to Palestinian citizens of Israel a fundamental right that Israel's Jewish citizens take for granted (and, indeed, citizens around the world hold dear): the right to make a life together with one's chosen spouse, in the country where one hold's citizenship. Adopted originally by the Knesset in 2003 as a “temporary” measure ostensibly for “security” reasons, the law has been repeatedly renewed for almost 20 years, most recently in March 2022. The renewed law includes explicit provisions referring to its “demographic” purpose, leading Adalah to call it “one of the most racist and discriminatory laws in the world.” In March, Israel's Minister of Interior Ayelet Shaked celebrated the law's passage on Twitter, saying; “Jewish & Democratic State – 1; State for all its citizens – 0”. Featuring: Dr. Morad El Sana, who was among the first petitioners against this law when his family was directly impacted by it; Dr. Hassan Jabareen, who leads Adalah's challenges against this law at the Israeli Supreme Court; Member of Knesset Aida Touma-Sliman, who has fought against this law since its first passage – all in conversation with FMEP's Lara Friedman.

 We were a nation of opportunity built by immigrants for immigrants. Still, events such as the election show that we have devolved into a melting pot of division, incivility, and hatred. Our country is not united but broken in two, driven by fear, anger, and fundamental misunderstandings on both sides. We are all guilty and have a part in the blame through misunderstanding people and the truth of things. Our points of view and decisions are guided by biases with a lack of empathy and understanding, leading to the question ‘how did we get here?' Today I discuss the age of bias and share how the evolution of a globalized and interconnected world is driving bias. I share how recent events highlight our limited progress in creating equality. I reveal how human tendencies to travel the easiest path make it hard for us to change and see the truth. I discuss the traits that create bias and share how aspiration must motivate change and eliminate fear for us to evolve. I also discuss how we can avoid suffering by seeing the truth and uniting citizenship.  “Bias makes us see what is not there - and not see what is.” - Chris Colbert This week on Insert:Human How our biases are increasing as the world becomes more global and interconnected How current events show that racial and gender equality is yet to be achieved The three things that fuel bias and Maslow's hierarchy of needs Why a need to be in control makes it difficult for us to adapt to change Why we find biases as the easiest path and how this blinds us to the truth The primal, cultural, and situational origins of bias and how it dominates our present Why aspiration needs to drive our motivation to change Making sacrifices to eliminate fear, see the objective truth, and evolve Citizenship and the path to uniting Insert:Human - For a Better Life & Better World Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Insert:Human.

Today's Promise: Philippians 3:20 In this episode we look at six things God says about heaven. As a Christian you need never worry about “if” you will go to heaven. Through faith in Christ you have the promise that when you close your eyes in death, you will open them in the presence of God. As citizens of heaven, we live in this world differently. We know that it is just a temporary place before we spend eternity in heaven.

A worldwide crisis in citizenship and rights has made it clear that no country's struggle is entirely exceptional. Today's episode of Order from Ashes kicks off a new season of the podcast: Transnational Trends in Citizenship. Today, Naira Antoun, director of Century International's Transnational Trends in Citizenship project, talks with Century International director Thanassis Cambanis about the connections between the crises in the Middle East, Western Europe, and North America. For more than a year, Century International hosted discussions among experts who usually focus on their own regions—the Middle East or Western Europe and North America—and asked them to compare their regions and policy areas. As a result of this exercise, the project's teams of researchers, activists, and academics revealed commonalities and connections in their study of militias, gender and sexuality, police accountability, and protest. They also demonstrated how bringing experts on different regions together can test assumptions, create new knowledge, and inspire powerful new insights into old but persistent policy problems. This podcast is part of “Transnational Trends in Citizenship: Authoritarianism and the Emerging Global Culture of Resistance,” a TCF project supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Open Society Foundations.  Participants include: Naira Antoun, director, Transnational Trends in Citizenship, Century International Thanassis Cambanis, director, Century International

Happy Pascha! A Citizenship Quiz in Honor of Eastern Orthodox Christian Americans pdf: https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/uscitizenpod/pascha-quiz.pdf  I wrote this quiz for several reasons. First, to honor Central/Eastern European-American Heritage. Second, to showcase the diversity in the American Christian community. Third, to celebrate Easter. In the past, Western Christians and the Eastern Orthodox have been divided by religion, history, and politics, but as Americans, we are united as one people, and this year, we are celebrating Easter on the same day. This is recording is an update of a 2017 podcast featuring Branka and her husband Tony, both of whom were from the former Yugoslavia by way of Canada. Branka was a longtime colleague who at the time worked as a Projects Coordinator for OUTREACH AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE NETWORK (otan.us) and had recently became a new US citizen. She then moved on to lead the Capital Adult Education Consortium. In late 2021, she and her family returned to Serbia where she continues to consult on Adult Education and digital literacy matters. Quiz answers: Colonists came to America for freedom. Freedom of religion is that you can practice any religion or not practice a religion. America bought the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803. The two parts of the US Congress are the Senate and the House of Representatives Dianne Feinstein is one of the two US senators from the state of California. Joe Biden is the current President of the United States.  Kamala Harris is the current Vice-President of the United States.  Gavin Newsom is the current Governor of California. The two major political parties are Democratic and Republican parties. The President's Cabinet advises the President. Ro Khanna is the US Representative of San Jose/Milpitas, California. Two ways that Americans can participate in their democracy are join a civic group and join a community group. EXTRA CREDIT: Listen to a great interview with Vlade Divac!
