In the United States, Martin Luther King, Jr., gets a holiday partly because he challenged Americans to live up to their own ideals and extend freedom and equality to people of all races. Partly because he delivered this challenge peacefully, with no violence. Partly because he paid for this cause with his life. And partly because he had a great wife, who stood by him. Coretta Scott King was also an activist, also risked danger, also spoke, protested, and lobbied. And America changed. Racism is not dead, sadly, but African Americans have far more opportunities than Coretta had in her youth, in part due to her efforts.

A heavy complexity is on the shoulders of the young of our species in these years —  humans growing up in this time. At the same time, from the digital revolution and AI to the ecology and society, they have wisdom and instincts in their bones that will be essential if we are all to flourish and not merely survive this century. In November 2024, the Georgetown University Collaborative on Global Children's Issues brought Krista together with esteemed children's and young adult writer Jason Reynolds and Georgetown student Kessley Janvier. The encounter between the three of them spans generations from the 20s to the 40s to the 60s and extended out to a room of people of all ages and walks of life. The wisdom that unfolded is as much about who we will be and how we will be as what we have before us to do, each in our own lives.Jason Reynolds is a New York Times bestselling author of over 20 books for children and young adults. From 2020–2022 he served as National Ambassador for Young People's Literature. Among many honors, he has received the Newbury, Printz, and Coretta Scott King awards and in 2024 was named a MacArthur Fellow. He is on faculty at Lesley University for the Writing for Young People MFA Program.Kessley Janvier is a senior at Georgetown University, majoring in history. She's former president of the Georgetown University NAACP.  She has organized around reparations, as part of Hoyas Advocating for Slavery Accountability, and she has also led efforts to promote climate justice, police accountability, and racial justice.Special thanks this week to Gillian Huebner, Ian Manzi, Rabbi Rachel Gartner and Derek Goldman. On Being Young in America was sponsored by the Culture of Encounter Project and was convened by the Collaborative on Global Children's Issues, the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs, and the Laboratory for Global Performance and Politics at Georgetown University in collaboration with The On Being Project.Find an excellent transcript of this show, edited by humans, on our show page. Sign yourself and others up for The Pause to be on our mailing list for all things On Being and to receive Krista's monthly Saturday morning newsletter, including a heads-up on new episodes, special offerings, recommendations, and event invitations.

Family, this week we honor the legacy of the incredible Coretta Scott King, a true trailblazer for Black and LGBTQ+ liberation. In politics, Colorado moves to permanently protect same-sex marriage, Minnesota takes a bold stand against Trump's attacks on trans youth, and George Santos faces the consequences of his deception. In culture and entertainment, BET announces a fabulous celebration for Black queer icons, we mourn the devastating loss of Jiggly Caliente, and Jennifer Beals gifts The L Word fans a gorgeous re-release of her photographic journal. Plus, we wrap up National Poetry Month with a moving poem by James Baldwin. Let's get into it!

Tous les week-end, découvrez de courtes histoires d'amours, tendres ou percutantes, pour engager de vraies réflexions sur l'amour. Boston, début des années 1950. Coretta est une jeune femme brillante et indépendante. Née en 1927 à Marion, en Alabama, elle a toujours trouvé dans l'école un lieu d'épanouissement. Musicienne talentueuse, première soprano de la chorale, elle joue aussi du piano et de la trompette. Mais au-delà des arts, Coretta est animée par une autre passion : la justice. Pendant ses études à Yellow Springs, elle rejoint la NAACP et s'engage dans la lutte pour les droits civiques. De son côté, Martin Luther King Jr. grandit à Atlanta, en Géorgie. Garçon précoce et réfléchi, il décroche à 18 ans une licence en sociologie et fait un choix déterminant : il sera pasteur. Pour lui, l'Église est le meilleur moyen de donner du sens à sa vie et de partager de l'humanité. En 1951, il termine sa licence en théologie et part à Boston pour son doctorat. C'est là, sur le campus, que leurs chemins se croisent. Martin demande à une amie si elle connaît une jeune femme à lui présenter. Elle pense immédiatement à Coretta. Une rencontre arrangée qui ne tarde pas à devenir une évidence. Entre eux, tout va très vite. Ils se découvrent, se reconnaissent. Coretta n'avait pas prévu de tomber amoureuse. Martin non plus. Mais ensemble, ils vont écrire l'une des plus grandes histoires d'amour et de lutte du XXe siècle. Un podcast Bababam Originals. Première diffusion : 25 juin 2021 Learn more about your ad choices.

Realize the Dream is a visionary movement aimed at uniting communities to achieve an extraordinary goal: completing 100 million hours of service by January 15, 2029—the 100th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birth. Inspired by Dr. King's unwavering commitment to justice, equality, and a compassionate society, Realize the Dream embodies his vision of a strong, unified foundation for all. The initiative seeks to empower hundreds of thousands of teachers and bring hope to over six million students in underfunded schools across the United States. As a company deeply committed to education and literacy for every child, Scholastic has partnered with this transformative mission. And as part of this commitment, Scholastic will be donating half a million dollars' worth of books over the course of the initiative to help support Realize the Dream's ongoing programming. Late last year, Martin Luther King III and Arndrea Waters King visited Scholastic Headquarters in New York City to discuss the initiative in a conversation moderated by award-winning author, and Scholastic Vice President and Editor, Andrea Davis Pinkney. In today's episode, the Kings and Andrea are back, joining guest-host Billy DiMichele in the studio for another compelling conversation about Realize the Dream! → Resources About Realize the Dream: Learn more about the initiative.

As we're working together, we're doing something that's bigger than ourselves, in a climate, which is divided, this will hopefully begin to create the beginning elements of some level of community.” “What we really want is not to share what someone should do. What we want is people to decide for themselves what they want to do…What we know is when one is passionate about something, they're going to do a better job.” “Civility is kindness. Civility is how we say, what we say. Because we can say it in a constructive way, or we can say it in a destructive way. And we need to be creating the climate for constructiveness.” “My greatest hope is that our nation becomes closer and not to just Realize the Dream, but people will realize their own dreams in a way that compliments everyone.” Arndrea Waters King, social justice leader and President of the nonprofit Drum Major Institute “One person can make a difference. All together we can change the world.” “It is important, again, for all of us to find ourselves within the King legacy, but also for everyone to understand that if you're doing something for someone else, if you're serving your community, you are doing something to realize the dream of Martin Luther King Jr.” “Acknowledging the shared humanity of us all, at its core, is the foundational principle of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King's work…As a humanity, we are all brothers and sisters. And that to me is what the cornerstone of what this movement is.” *Andrea Davis Pinkney, award-winning author and Vice President and Executive Editor, Scholastic Trade Publishing * “[Kids] want to take action. They're big-hearted. And they know what it means to work together.” “As well all know, books change lives. Books spark conversations. And that's what We Dream a World does. It's changed lives. It has sparked conversations.” “Stories connect us. They unify us. They bring us together. In the case of the book, We Dream a World, it's a jewel and a tool. It's a jewel because it glistens, because its beautifully illustrated, because young people will engage with it and its beautifully written. It's a tool, because it's a way that young people can have the roadmap to say, “how do I make a change?” → Special Thanks Producers: Maxine Osa, Anne Sparkman, Allyson Barkan Sound Engineer: S.

This week on Keep It Positive, Sweetie, I'm joined by the powerhouse herself — multi-hyphenate entrepreneur and co-founder of The Fearless Fund, Arian Simone. We dive into a candid, no-holds-barred conversation about Selling the Vision, her relentless fight for women entrepreneurs of color, and the landmark federal court case that thrust her into the national spotlight — igniting a much-needed conversation around the future of DEI in America. From sitting at the feet of legends like Coretta Scott King and Rosa Parks as a young girl, to being crowned a real-life Ivorian Queen, Arian's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Her story is bold, brilliant, and deeply inspiring. Grab your pen and paper — class is in session. You're about to be educated, empowered, and reminded of the power of purpose.

This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Laysha Ward author of the leadership book, Lead Like You Mean It: Lessons on Integrity and Purpose from the C-Suite. Laysha spent more than 30 years in corporate America, most of that time at Target. Our conversation took place before Target announced their roll back of DEI initiatives but we still discuss how her background as a Black girl from rural Indiana helped her find gold in her roots to unlock her superpowers. Why she believes it's important to have a holistic approach to leadership and well-being. And the lessons she learned from Mrs. Coretta Scott King that helped her successfully navigate her professional and personal life.

January 15, 1969. It's been less than a year since the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Friends, family, and followers are gathered at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, where Dr. King preached. They are there to remember him on his birthday, honor his legacy, and present a goal: an official celebration of his birthday every year, a holiday to commemorate his life and his struggle. Getting a holiday passed may sound like a bureaucratic formality, but it would become a years-long battle, mainly led by his widow, Coretta Scott King. And without an assist from a musical legend, it may have never come to be. Why was this holiday so controversial? And how did a still-popular song change the tide in this battle? Special thanks to Kevin Gaines, Julian Bond Professor of Civil Rights and Social Justice at the University of Virginia; and Crystal Sanders, historian and associate professor of African American studies at Emory University.

Cities across America have boulevards named after him. The nation celebrates his life and legacy every year in January. Washington, D.C. boasts a massive monument of his likeness. Even so, most Americans have no idea that Martin Luther King Jr. was widely despised during this life and decades after his death. On this MLK Jr. Day, it's important to go "beyond the quotable King," as historian and author Jemar Tisby, PhD compels us.In this conversation, Jemar unpacks that history and his newest book, "The Spirit of Justice: True Stories of Faith, Race, and Resistance." In it, we also talk about the "great man myth" and the centrality of Coretta Scott King, not only to Martin's activism, but also to the broader civil rights movement. And we end with an important conversation on the opportunities before all of us today to pursue justice in the moment we're entering.--Purchase "The Spirit of Justice: True Stories of Faith, Race, and Resistance" by Dr. Jemar TisbyLeave a rating and review of The Telos Channel on Apple Podcasts or SpotifyIf you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos Newsletter

This week, we are honored to welcome Dr. Clayborne Carson to The Hamilton Review Podcast! Today, as we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. there is no one more appropriate to commemorate Dr. King's life than Dr. Clayborne Carson. In 1985, Mrs. Coretta Scott King chose Dr. Carson to edit and publish a definitive, multi-volume edition of her late husband's speeches, sermons, correspondence, publications, and unpublished writings. "The Autobiograpy of Martin Luther King, Jr." was brought to life by Dr. Carson and is a book to be cherished and added to all collections. In this special episode, Dr. Carson shares his compelling story, which is a must listen conversation to be shared everywhere. Enjoy this intimate discussion with Dr. Clayborne Carson. Dr. Clayborne Carson, the Martin Luther King, Jr., Centennial Professor of History, emeritus, at Stanford University, has devoted his professional life to the study of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the human rights movements inspired by Coretta and Martin King, Mohandas K. Gandhi, and other visionaries. His award-winning first book, In Struggle: SNCC and the Black Awakening of the 1960s, was published in 1981 and remains the definitive study of the courageous activists and organizers who challenged the strongholds of segregation. In 1985, Mrs. Coretta Scott King chose Dr. Carson to edit and publish a definitive, multi-volume edition of her late husband's speeches, sermons, correspondence, publications, and unpublished writings. In addition to publishing numerous other books and scholarly articles, Carson has also reached broader audiences as a senior advisor to the Eyes on the Prize series and his contributions to more than two dozen subsequent documentaries. After launching the online Liberation Curriculum for K-12 students, Carson founded Stanford's Martin Luther King, Jr., Research and Education Institute in 2005 to disseminate King-related educational resources to a global audience.  After retiring as the King Institute's Director, Carson has continued his online and multi-media educational efforts by establishing The World House Project to collaborate with other human rights advocates to realize King's vision of a global community in which all people can “learn somehow to live with each other in peace.”

If you already heard it and don't wish to hear it again, skip it!Martin Luther King Jr. is the only person to have ever been tried for perjury with regards to state income taxes in Alabama. Jeff and Scott interview Edgar Dyer about the tax perjury trial of Martin Luther King Jr. in 1960. Eddie wrote an article entitled "A Triumph of Justice in Alabama: The 1960 Perjury Trial of Martin Luther King, Jr."Fred Grey, Martin Luther King's attorney, said of the trial, "No one would have predicted that an all-white jury in Montgomery, Alabama, the Cradle of the Confederacy, in May 1960, in the middle of all the sit-ins and all of the racial tension that was going on, would exonerate Martin Luther King, Jr. But it really happened." Coretta Scott King said of the trial, "A southern jury of twelve white men had acquitted Martin. It was a triumph of justice, a miracle that restored your faith in human good."  Dr. King said it was a "turning point" in his life. Tune in to hear about this triumphal tax trial, which was a turning point for Martin Luther King.

Apenas quatro dias depois, porém, sua esposa Coretta Scott King assumiu corajosamente o lugar do seu marido na liderança de uma marcha pacífica de protesto. Coretta tinha profunda paixão pela justiça e foi vitoriosa em muitas causas. Jesus disse: “Felizes os que têm fome e sede de justiça, pois serão saciados” (MATEUS 5:6). Sabemos que um dia Deus virá, trazendo justiça e corrigindo todo mal; no entanto, até lá, como Coretta o fez, também temos a oportunidade de promover a justiça de Deus e torná-la real neste mundo. Isaías ilustra com clareza o chamado de Deus para o Seu povo: soltar os que foram injustamente presos, libertar os oprimidos, repartir o alimento com os famintos, oferecer abrigo a quem não tem, dar roupas a quem precisa e não se esconder de quem carece de ajuda (58:6-7). Buscando justiça para os oprimidos e marginalizados, demonstramos a presença de Deus em nós. Isaías escreveu que o povo de Deus, quando busca justiça, é como a luz da aurora e traz cura para si e para os outros (v.8). Que Deus nos ajude hoje a cultivar a fome e a sede de Sua justiça neste mundo. A Bíblia nos diz que, ao buscarmos a justiça de Deus, em Sua maneira e poder, seremos satisfeitos. Por: Karen Pimpo

History reveals a lot of things about human nature: our innate drive towards progress, discovery, relationship, community. Often motivated by a drive to feel safe and flourish. But despite this instinct, history also shows that we're prone to inflicting and being complicit to grave and violent injustices. We fail, regularly, at living well with our neighbors.In his new book, The Spirit of Justice, Jemar Tisby opens the centuries long history of resistance to racism in the United States through the mode of story, and with the lens of the Spirit moving for justice. He asks, what manner of people are those who courageously confront racism? Presenting the lives and witness of over 50 individuals, Tisby examines the way faith threads the life work of these advocates together: not only inspiring their resistance in the first place, but continuing to move through the weariness that so often arises in this work.In this episode, Jemar Tisby joins Macie Bridge on the podcast to discuss the manifestations of the Spirit of Justice in figures such as H. Ford Douglas, Sister Thea Bowman, David Walker, Myrlie Evers-Williams, and many more; the problem of historical appropriation with figures such as Martin Luther King Jr.; the women whose stories too often fall into the shadow of their husbands' legacies, like Anna Murray Douglas or Coretta Scott King; and the ever-present question of why we might look to history as we determine our own ways forward.Jemar Tisby is the New York Times bestselling author of The Color of Compromise and How to Fight Racism. He is a public historian, speaker, and advocate, and is Professor of History at Simmons College, an HBCU in Kentucky.Photo Credits: Fannie Lou Hamer, Phyllis Wheatley, Charles Morgan Jr., Anna Murray Douglass, David Walker, Sister Thea Bowman, Myrlie & Darrell Evers.Where to Find Jemar Tisby's BooksThe Spirit of Justice *Available nowI Am the Spirit of Justice *Picture book releasing January 7, 2025Stories of the Spirit of Justice *Middle-grade children's book releasing January 7, 2025Production NotesThis podcast featured Jemar TisbyHosted by Macie BridgeEdited and Produced by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Alexa Rollow, Emily Brookfield, Kacie Barrett, & Zoë HalabanA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

In this episode, Jemar Tisby takes us through the rich history of Black Christians fighting for justice in America. From Phillis Wheatley's powerful poetry to the legal strategy that toppled Jim Crow, Tisby highlights how the "spirit of justice" has driven Black Christians to resist oppression and work towards greater freedom. He emphasizes the crucial distinction between "slaveholder Christianity" and the true Christianity of Christ, which compels us to love our neighbor. Tisby stresses the importance of maintaining a "smoke detector" mentality - staying vigilantly engaged in the ongoing struggle for justice. Ultimately, Tisby's message is one of hope and inspiration. By studying the stories of those who've gone before, we can tap into that same spirit of justice and keep moving the needle towards a more righteous and equitable society. Jemar Tisby is the author of the New York Times bestselling book, The Color of Compromise: The Truth about the Church's Complicity in Racism, How to Fight Racism, How to Fight Racism: Young Reader's Edition, and his latest The Spirit of Justice. He is also a Professor of History at Simmons College of Kentucky in Louisville. Jemar has been a co-host of the "Pass the Mic" podcast since its inception seven years ago. His writing has been featured in the Washington Post, The Atlantic, and the New York Times among others. He is a frequent commentator on outlets such as NPR and CNN's New Day program. He speaks nationwide on the topics of racial justice, U.S. history and Christianity. Jemar earned his PhD in history and he studies race, religion, and social movements in the 20th century.

Send us a Text Message.Do you want to know why courage and self-examination are crucial in the fight for justice? In this episode of the Darrell McClain Show, we transport you back to a stirring 2006 sermon by Dr. Cornel West at Howard University. Dr. West passionately discusses his unwavering commitment to faith and the transformative power of love and justice. He celebrates the integrity and social contributions of figures like Reverend Dr. Bernard L. Richardson and Tavis Smiley, urging us all to embody Christian values by standing against injustice and unfairness. Dr. West's call for courage and self-reflection challenges us to better understand ourselves to truly contribute to the broader narrative of freedom and dignity.Reflect on profound legacies with us as we touch on the intersections of death, legacy, and social movements. From the tragic loss of Tupac Shakur to the impactful yet politically overshadowed funeral of Coretta Scott King, we explore historical resilience and the creative expressions of Black communities through spirituals and hip-hop. Highlighting the fight against systemic oppression and celebrating voices like Afrika Bambaataa, KRS-One, and Lauryn Hill, this episode critiques racial biases within the criminal justice system and underscores the importance of maintaining dignity and spiritual integrity amidst adversity.Can the teachings of Jesus guide us in modern social justice work? Dr. West's sermon at Howard University suggests they can. By examining the essence of service, love, and sacrifice, we discuss how even those with troubled pasts can transform through love and redemption. With a focus on political courage and accountability, we recount heartfelt dialogues on the challenges of confronting right-wing televangelists and the necessity of maintaining integrity. Drawing from the legacy of leaders like Nelson Mandela and Dr Martin Luther King Jr., Dr. West's message at Howard is a powerful call to arms, urging us to engage with the world's struggles through transformative love, hope, and justice. Tune in for an episode that not only honors the legacy of historical figures but also challenges you to leave a positive mark on the world. Support the Show.

The government troops [would] come and burn down the villages—kill whoever that they will find. … When I see what happened recently in Israel, where they went and burned down, and shot people—that's exactly what I experienced when I was a child.”When Simon Deng was nine years old, he was kidnapped from South Sudan and brought to the North. He was given to an Arab family as a “gift,” and enslaved for more than three years.“I'm here talking to you as a living proof of the slavery which still exists,” says Mr. Deng.25 years ago, Charles Jacobs helped to liberate tens of thousands of slaves in Africa, and received an award from Coretta Scott King for his work.“We went to the slave redemption sites, and we talked to the survivors who were brought back. And they told us their stories,” he says.Today, Mr. Deng and Mr. Jacobs are cofounders of the newly-formed African Jewish Alliance, which raises awareness about the threat posed by Jihadism.“Hamas is no different than Boko Haram in Nigeria,“ says Mr. Jacobs. ”It's one front in Israel, but it belongs to a global movement. And people need to know that.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Hey lady! Black History Month may be officially over, but we celebrate the richness of our history every day, which is why this week's episode is extra special. Jayme Lawson and Weruche Opia, stars of the Disney/Hulu series GENIUS: MLK/X, join Terri and Dr. Dom for a beautiful conversation about the wonder and depth of the Black experience. The two powerhouses share their testimonies of endurance and perseverance to position themselves to portray the extraordinary legacies of Dr. Betty X Shabazz and Coretta Scott King on the small screen. Both women are civil rights luminaries in their own right and spouses to civil rights icons Dr. Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. The ladies dive deep into their research and process for fleshing out these roles and bringing fresh light and perspective to the incredible stories of the women. Lady, if you're looking for inspiration on how to lead a full life of integrity and purpose tune in for this awesome episode! Quote of the Day:"Sometimes, I am also identified as a civil rights leader or a human rights activist. I would also like to be thought of as a complex, three-dimensional, flesh-and-blood human being with a rich storehouse of experiences, much like everyone else, yet unique in my own way, much like everyone else.”– Coretta Scott King Where to find Weruche Opia:Instagram: @werucheopia Where to find Jayme Lawson:Instagram: @jaymelawson Get a 25% discount on The Gohddess Program with the code CULTIVATE at www.gohddess.com.

How can you stop feeling triggered when someone says something contrary about your spiritual experiences? Find out on today's Life Question of The Week! Next, as Black History Month ends this week, Michael chats with 15-year-old youth activist Yolanda Renee King, daughter of Martin Luther King, III and Arndrea Waters King, and the sole grandchild of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King. Yolanda recently authored her first book, “We Dream A World,” a children's book she says is for kids “big and little.” It talks about the legacy of her grandparents and the choice we all have to follow the Dream of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King. During this inspiring conversation, Michael and Yolanda talk about: –Yolanda's activism of passionately addressing mass gatherings at protests and penning articles against gun violence, homelessness, and the inhumane treatment of refugees seeking asylum on the U.S. southern border –Why she chose to follow in the legacy of her grandparents as well as her parents in their work to realize the Dream –Yolanda's new book, “We Dream A World,” and her other interests including what she likes to do for fun - and more! And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation.

Today's episode was all about those red flags and deal-breakers in relationships. We had the hilarious and insightful Jessie Woo join us to dive deep into what makes us say "nah" or "I can deal" when it comes to the men we date. From guys who don't celebrate holidays to those who've been to prison, we covered it all. Jessie shared her personal experiences, and let me tell you, the laughs were non-stop.We also touched on some serious topics, like the importance of men knowing basic life skills and the struggles of dating in today's world. Jessie opened up about her family background, her journey to success, and the challenges she faced along the way.And of course, we couldn't let Jessie go without playing a round of "I'm Curious to Know" and getting her take on our listener's dilemma about starting a hoe phase in her mid-thirties. Jessie's advice? You're never too old to explore your sexuality but always prioritize your safety and emotional well-being.We wrapped up the episode with a reminder to join us on our upcoming trips with 10 Vacation Days & Paradise & Vibe and to check out local events for those looking for love this Valentine's Day. Remember, whether it's a red flag or a deal breaker, always trust your gut and never settle for less than you deserve. Until next time, keep those cocktails flowing and those discussions dirty.
