Send us a textIs peace still possible after October 7th and who is even left to fight for it? In this explosive episode, Ittay Flescher, a longtime peace activist and educator, sits down for a raw and revealing conversation about the Israeli government's communication strategy, the failures of peace movements, and the deep ideological divide in Israeli-Palestinian relations. But what starts as a respectful debate takes an unexpected turn… Key Topics Covered in This Episode:How October 7th shattered long-held beliefs about peaceThe failures of peace activism and uncomfortable truths about Hamas' supportInside the Israeli government's messaging strategy—what's working and what's failingHow Israel should handle the war of narratives in global mediaWhat Ittay Flescher's experience inside a peace movement reveals about Palestinian perspectives

I feel like this episode is the ultimate guide to understanding coexistence with wolves. Once again I talk with ecological anthropologist Thorsten Gieser, this time about his excellent book “Living with Wolves: Affects, Feelings and Sentiments in Human-Wolf Coexistence”. In the episode, Thorsten recounts a tense atmosphere during the visit to a wolf kill site. We also talk about understanding emotions that are sparked by wolves, and we discuss the recent decision to lower the protection status of wolves in the EU.During our conversation, Thorsten draws from his extensive fieldwork across Germany where he witnessed firsthand the aftermath of wolf attacks on livestock. He explains the unique psychological impact wolves have on communities, stemming from both their distinctive hunting methods, which he describes in terms of "necroaesthetics", and centuries of cultural conditioning. We examine the political dimensions of wolf management across Europe and explore the often contradictory attitudes within hunting communities, who historically viewed wolves as competitors rather than fellow predators. Thorsten challenges common narratives, addressing how conspiracy theories about wolf reintroduction persist despite clear evidence of natural recolonisation.Moving beyond practical considerations, we discuss Thorsten's concept of “affect-guided thinking” in wildlife management, an approach that acknowledges emotional responses without being driven solely by them. The discussion explores the “queasy feeling” many experience in wolf territories and the emotional resilience required for true coexistence. Rather than focusing exclusively on protection levels or culling quotas, Thorsten argues we must confront more fundamental questions: How do we distinguish between legitimate concerns and fear-mongering? What emotions should we cultivate to share landscapes with these controversial predators? And how might we develop the psychological capacity to live alongside animals that challenge our sense of control over nature?Buy Thorsten's Book

The Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, ignited another cycle of devastation, leaving countless lives lost or shattered—mostly Palestinian, but also Israeli. Beyond rebuilding roads and houses, how can people on both sides heal from the hate, despair, and fear that fuel ongoing violence? This episode of New Thinking for a New World shifts the focus from political plans to the human reality of those forced to coexist. Italian journalist Francesca Borri, reporting from Jenin, and Israeli activist Gershon Baskin, deeply committed to coexistence, share their insights. Is peace possible?

Keyanna Ortiz-Cedeño chats with Kat Sibel on Indigenous People's Day about her life's journey of twists and turns reflecting on her Peruvian ancestral roots and how Andean and Quechua knowledge and values informed her work and research looking at both sides of public health and environmental science. Kat Sibel (she/her/ella) is a passionate, bi-cultural Community Climate Resiliency Coordinator for the NYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene. As a researcher, she embraces her indigenous identity in applying a decolonial lens to climate justice topics, such as extreme heat and flooding, and its impact on community health. As an action-oriented urban planner, she develops meaningful strategic partnerships via 'embedded planning' for climate health-focused capacity building. By centering community concerns from faith leaders, residents, community health workers, and emergency managers, she is able to advocate and collaborate with policy makers, urban designers, data analysts and community engagement leaders on climate risk tools and resources. Learning the traditions of her Andean (Quechua) heritage through meditation, language and culture throughout her life has kept her grounded through the challenges that arise as an environmental justice practitioner, leader, urban planner, and global citizen.Learn more about Kat's work:LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/katherin-sibel/ NYC's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Website: https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/index.page  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nychealthy/---------------------------------------Plan Dulce is a podcast by the ⁠⁠Latinos and Planning Division⁠ of the American Planning Association⁠.  Want to recommend our next great guests and stay updated on the latest episodes?

Dr. Jonny Hanson is an environmental social scientist, conservationist, and former community farmer. He's also the author of Living with Lynx, Sharing Landscapes with Big Cats, Wolves, and Bears.He spent months traveling Europe and the United States learning about the real-life challenges of reintroducing apex predators to landscapes, and how to make coexistence successful for everyone involved.Today, we discuss Jonny's travels, stories, and lessons learned. And of course, we begin with “why reintroduce apex predators in the first place”. As an environmental social scientist, Jonny spends much of his time learning how to bridge the gaps in how different communities consider living with predators, and by the time we were done, I felt more confident than ever that we can and should allow these magnificent animals back into our landscapes. This episode is full of amazing insights, and Jonny seems to be a quote machine. There were so many well stated tidbits throughout that I know I'm going to use in the future.Not only that, but you'll get to hear how Jonny actually bred mosquitos for money, and how that influenced him. And if you stick around to the end, you'll also get to hear about his experience with concentrated bobcat urine. If you can't tell, this is a nutrient dense episode, but with plenty of fun stories, too.Be sure to check out Jonny at jonnyhanson.com, and on facebook, instagram, youtube, and tiktok.FULL SHOW NOTESLinks:Dr. Hanson's New Book - Living With LynxCoexisting with Carnivores - Dr. Hanson's TEDx TalkJoanna LambertTrailer for Dr. Hanson's Snow Leopard documentaryWildlife Friendly Enterprise NetworkSupport Us On Patreon!Buy our Merch!Music: Spellbound by Brian Holtz MusicLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist site: https://brianholtzmusic.com Discover the Jumpstart Nature Podcast - entertaining and immersive, it's the nature fix we all need.Check past Nature's Archive episodes for amazing guests like Doug Tallamy, Elaine Ingham, and Rae Wynn-Grant, covering topics from bird migration to fungi to frogs and bats!

Mary welcomes back author, apologist and Israel expert Jim Fletcher today for a timely chat about the recent deal for the Israeli hostages. Some say it's about time, we must get them back. Others say it is extortion, since the face of terrorism is not going to change in Israel regardless. The Gazans were dancing in the streets; was it because peace was finally coming, or was it about the hope of a continuation of struggles for their cause on an increasing level?  There are those who say never negotiate with terrorists, and yet are we placing their lives and cause before the innocent civilian? A moral dilemma for our time - and for this location that seems to play by different rules and on so many stages. We also chat about the Pope's complete lack of understanding about Israel, and the latest poll that says half of the world is antisemitic on some level. Jim is uniquely articulate about Israel. An enlightening hour.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

I am honored to be in conversation with Mark Patinkin, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in international reporting, as he shares an array of human stories that help us to grasp the complexities of life and war in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza. Patinkin moves from armchair commentaries to analyst to storyteller and beautifully amplifies voices and perspectives that need to be heard. He goes into the homes of both Jews and Palestinians to bear witness to their experiences. Mark is one of few journalists allowed into Gaza and he takes readers and listeners like us with him. There is much to learn from this conversation and Mark's book, the Holy Land at War  (and more importantly from those actually living within this ongoing struggle).Guest Bio:Mark Patinkin, longtime Providence Journal columnist, is the author of “The Holy Land at War: A Journey Through Israel, the West Bank and Gaza.” Over the decades, Mark has traveled abroad to write about the Lebanon civil war, the first Intifada, the collapse of European communism and now war in the Middle East. Mark was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for international reporting and has honorary degrees from Rhode Island College and Johnson and Wales University.

Dan Libenson and Lex Rofeberg, co-hosts of Judaism Unbound, explore one of the most contentious topics in Jewish (and broader) life today — Israel-Palestine. They ask how we can build Jewish communities that are able to support one another across difference and serve justice in our world. This episode is the first in an ongoing mini-series of podcasts exploring conversations about Israel-Palestine in American-Jewish life. NOTE: This episode was recorded many weeks before it was released publicly, meaning our conversation took place before the ceasefire agreement that was widely reported on January 15th. Initial reports indicate a multi-phase ceasefire agreement, including a release of many people -- Israelis and Palestinians -- who will be able to return to their families and homes. We celebrate this de-escalation of violence and hope that it endures. We continue to hold deep hopes for a brighter future for Palestinians, for Israelis, and for their loved ones around the world.Access full shownotes for this episode via this link.

Avi Shlaim is a celebrated "New Historian” whose earlier work established him as an influential historian of Middle Eastern politics and especially of Israel's relations with the Arab world. Most recently he has turned to his own Iraqi/Israeli/British past in Three Worlds: Memoirs of an Arab-Jew–which he refers to as an "impersonal autobiography." He speaks today to John and his Brandeis colleague Yuval Evri, the Marash and Ocuin Chair in Ottoman, Mizrahi and Sephardic Jewish Studies. Yuval's 2020 The Return to Al-Andalus: Disputes Over Sephardic Culture and Identity Between Arabic and Hebrew explores how fluidity in such categories as the "Arab-Jew" becomes a source of resistance to exclusive claims of ownership of land, texts, traditions, or languages. The three quickly agree that the crucial category for understanding Avi's latest work is that of the Arab Jew: "I am a problem for Zionists, an ontological impossibility....[as] a living breathing standing Arab Jew. A problem for them but not for me." Coexistence for him is not remote, but something that the Iraqi Jewish community experienced and touched on a daily basis. In describing the factors that sped migration from Iraq to Israel in its early years, Shlaim lays bare some evidence for Mossad involvement in three for the Baghdad bombs that hastened the flight from Baghdad. That bombing forms part of the “Cruel Zionism” that Avi sees having gravely damaged the possibilities of Middle Eastern religious coexistence. He also discusses the 1954 Lavon affair, and more generally reflects on the way that Zionism ("an Ashkenazi thing") conscripted Arab Jews into its political formation (This is a topic also discussed extensively in RTB"s conversation with Natasha Roth-Richardson and Lori Allen, in Violent Majorities). True, there is a much-discussed 1941 Baghdadi pogrom, The Farhud. It stands alone in the area and by Shlaim's account was largely a product of British colonialism in Iraq, with its divisive elevation of Christians and Jews over Muslims. Yuval asks Avi to discuss the power (or permission) to narrate stories told from below. Avi's tales of his own mother's resourcefulness and his father's struggles betoken the range of poignant response to what for so many Arab Jews was not aliyah (ascent) but a yerida, a descent into marginality, unemployment, and cultural exclusion. To Avi, a single state of Israel/Palestine seems the best hope to ward off the worst that may come from the accelerated ethnic cleansing of both Gaza and the West Bank, which may lead to a second Nakba. Mentioned in the podcast Avi Shlaim, Collusion across the Jordan: King Abdullah, the Zionist Movement, and the Partition of Palestine (1988) Avi Shlaim, The Iron Wall: Israel and the Arab World (1988) The New Historians of Israel/Palestine.

Avi Shlaim is a celebrated "New Historian” whose earlier work established him as an influential historian of Middle Eastern politics and especially of Israel's relations with the Arab world. Most recently he has turned to his own Iraqi/Israeli/British past in Three Worlds: Memoirs of an Arab-Jew–which he refers to as an "impersonal autobiography." He speaks today to John and his Brandeis colleague Yuval Evri, the Marash and Ocuin Chair in Ottoman, Mizrahi and Sephardic Jewish Studies. Yuval's 2020 The Return to Al-Andalus: Disputes Over Sephardic Culture and Identity Between Arabic and Hebrew explores how fluidity in such categories as the "Arab-Jew" becomes a source of resistance to exclusive claims of ownership of land, texts, traditions, or languages. The three quickly agree that the crucial category for understanding Avi's latest work is that of the Arab Jew: "I am a problem for Zionists, an ontological impossibility....[as] a living breathing standing Arab Jew. A problem for them but not for me." Coexistence for him is not remote, but something that the Iraqi Jewish community experienced and touched on a daily basis. In describing the factors that sped migration from Iraq to Israel in its early years, Shlaim lays bare some evidence for Mossad involvement in three for the Baghdad bombs that hastened the flight from Baghdad. That bombing forms part of the “Cruel Zionism” that Avi sees having gravely damaged the possibilities of Middle Eastern religious coexistence. He also discusses the 1954 Lavon affair, and more generally reflects on the way that Zionism ("an Ashkenazi thing") conscripted Arab Jews into its political formation (This is a topic also discussed extensively in RTB"s conversation with Natasha Roth-Richardson and Lori Allen, in Violent Majorities). True, there is a much-discussed 1941 Baghdadi pogrom, The Farhud. It stands alone in the area and by Shlaim's account was largely a product of British colonialism in Iraq, with its divisive elevation of Christians and Jews over Muslims. Yuval asks Avi to discuss the power (or permission) to narrate stories told from below. Avi's tales of his own mother's resourcefulness and his father's struggles betoken the range of poignant response to what for so many Arab Jews was not aliyah (ascent) but a yerida, a descent into marginality, unemployment, and cultural exclusion.

Let's explore the intricate history between Christianity and witchcraft, tracing how the Church's views on magic and supernatural practices evolved from the early Christian period to the modern day. This lecture unpacks the meaning of 'witchcraft' within a Christian context, revealing how the term came to signify a threat to divine authority. Through scriptural interpretations, the perspectives of early Church Fathers, and medieval theological distinctions between 'white' and 'black' magic, we uncover Christianity's shifting stance—from condemnation and demonology-fuelled witch hunts to ambivalent tolerance of folk practices. We also examine the rise of ceremonial magic traditions, such as Rosicrucianism and Freemasonry, which attempted to harmonise Christian mysticism with esoteric pursuits, and how these traditions influenced contemporary Pagan practices. This video sheds light on the far-reaching impact of these historical interactions, showing how Christian symbolism continues to influence modern Paganism and esotericism. Dive into this fascinating journey through faith, fear, and the ongoing dialogue between Christianity and witchcraft. CONNECT & SUPPORT

Today's poem is Separation Wall by Naomi Shihab Nye.This spring, we asked our community to submit poems that have helped you slow down in your lives. Thank you to the nearly 300 of you who sent us poems to read and enjoy. This week we're featuring the team's selections. Today's selection was submitted by Meital from Washington, D.C. In this episode, Major writes… “Coexistence on the planet demands that we transcend reactionary treatment of each other. For this reason, we need poems to tease out our innocence, that part of us untouched by the callousness of the world, to bring us to a sanity beyond inherited hurts and old fears, away from the logic of ‘an eye for an eye.' Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said that this kind of violence ‘destroys communities and makes humanity impossible. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.'” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
