Podcast appearances and mentions of Desmond Tutu

“Well done is better than well said.”     You might have heard that famous saying from Benjamin Franklin. And it's one that reminds us of the importance of action over words. But what does it take exactly?    When it comes to solving some of the world's biggest problems or doing business in a more sustainable and responsible way, there's no shortage of people talking and theorising.    And that's a good thing. Hearing and learning from others is important. But right now, the world needs more people driving impact as opposed to simply just talking about it. So, how do we encourage businesses and leaders to take that next step?     That's what we're exploring with Paul Van Zyl, Co-founder and CEO of The Conduit, and Piumi Mitchell, Head of Social Impact Partnerships at Deloitte UK, as we ask: How do we turn words into action? Tune in to find out: Why right now is the best time in history to be fighting the big issues How Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu shaped Paul's thoughts on collaboration Why asking, "So what?" is so important  Why collaboration and purpose is more important than power Enjoyed this episode?

The good news of Christianity is that we can all have hope no matter how bad or sad life and the world may be. ‘Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all the darkness,' said Desmond Tutu, one of the leading opponents of Apartheid in South Africa.    Pastor Wes Richards' first book called ‘Hope and a Future: a story of love, loss and living again' tells how his family was restored after grieving the loss of a much-loved wife and mother. It's been translated into Spanish and Portuguese and the feedback received shows that hope is a universal need. Everybody needs hope, from the least to the greatest.    This week in the VE Day 80th anniversary celebrations, Winston Churchill's inspiring words of hope have once more been broadcast to millions. Yet as he grew older and again became Prime Minister, the great man was himself in need of great hope as he faced the post-war years of new domestic and global social, economic and political challenges. In 1954 he invited Billy Graham to Downing Street for a 20-minute meeting after hearing of the great crowds that had gathered to listen to the evangelist in Wembley and other stadiums. Although they overran their allotted time, Churchill told Graham to keep speaking, and the evangelist affirmed that God was the only hope for the world and for us individually.   You don't have to be a Billy Graham, however, to spread the good news as a remarkable Bible story in 2 Kings 6:24-7:6 shows us. In 2 Kings 7:9, four outcast lepers: ‘said to each other, “We're not doing right. This is a day of good news and we are keeping it to ourselves.”' This is a story that has many applications for us today:  1. People desperately need hope (2 Kings 6:28-30) 2. Today is a day of hope (2 Kings 7:1-9; Luke 2:10-11; John 6:35; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Psalm 103:3; 1 John 1:9; John 14:6; John 8:12,36; Luke 4:18-19; John 11:25) 3. We have a responsibility to share the good news of hope (2 Kings 7:9-16; 2 Corinthians 5:20 & 6:2) Apply  1. People desperately need hope. They were people who had been through extremely tough circumstances. This story is set in the 9th century before Christ and, not for the first time, Israel was a nation under attack. An entire city, Samaria, was under siege. Ben-Hadad king of Aram to the north of Israel wanted to starve them into submission. The siege lasted so long that ‘there was a great famine in the city.' The economy was shattered, and inflation rocketed, like it has done in many failed states. As food was so scarce they were people who had lost their way morally and spiritually. They were desperate and moral values were thrown out. Anything went and the people resorted to cannibalism (2 Kings 6:28), just like in World War 2, particularly during the long siege of Leningrad. All kinds of things happen when moral values collapse. They were people who saw no way out of their pain, where death and despair stalked the city and those in authority had no answer (2 Kings 6:30). The King tore his clothes, his close advisors were depressed and cynical, declaring not even God could help them. Today there is a great famine in many developed nations as well as literal famines in other nations. People are starved of Love: family break up is at record levels. So many suffer abuse, cruelty, pain and heartache in their homes. People are starved of Direction: they don't know where their lives are headed. They too lack a moral or spiritual compass. People are starved of Meaning: suicides are up, particularly amongst the young, because of a sense that life has no meaning or purpose. People are starved of Hope: they are worried and depressed about the future. Many people indeed lead lives of quiet desperation. However, there is hope!  2. Today is a day of hope. The answer to the hopeless situation did not come from a political ruler but from a prophet of God. Elisha was a man who knew the character of God and the reality of the power of God. And he had a word from God that there was about to come a big turnaround in the economy because there would very quickly be a big change in their circumstances (2 Kings 7:1). Sky high prices would drop because there would be more than enough supplies for everyone, the famine would end, and people would suddenly have real reason to hope. So these four desperate lepers wandered into enemy lines only to find the enemy forces had fled leaving food and provision everywhere (2 Kings 7:3-9). They couldn't believe it, but it was true. Their famine was over! Today also is ‘a day of good news.' And that good news is not coming from the politicians or the press but from those who understand what Christianity is all about. For good news is at the heart of Christianity. When Jesus came into the world it was a cause for celebration (Luke 2:10-11). The good news of Christianity is that when everything seems lost and hopeless we can be rescued. You don't have to just exist. You don't have to be so empty. You don't have to be trapped by your circumstances. You don't have to stay depressed. Your famine can end (John 6:35). Instead of emptiness and sadness, you can be filled with love, joy, peace when you have an encounter with the Holy Spirit who makes Jesus real to us. You can have a new start (2 Corinthians 5:17). God can make all things new by changing you from the inside out. You can be forgiven for your wrongdoing, even if you have some big regrets in your life (Psalm 103:3; 1 John 1:9). You can find meaning and direction (John 14:6; John 8:12). You can discover a whole new life of freedom (John 8:36). No habit, addiction, problem or sin needs to hold you captive. You can be free from fear and guilt and shame, freed to be all that God meant you to be. You can experience great favour (Luke 4:18-19). God wants to bless you with His goodness and mercy all the days of your life. You can be blessed in your emotions, your body, your spirit, your finances, your family and in every area of life. You can be confident of a secure future (John 11:25), with hope for this life and the next. So how are people going to get to know that they have hope and a future? That's up to you and me.  3. We have a responsibility to share the good news of hope. The four lepers in the story had their own needs met and were really enjoying themselves. But then they thought of all the starving people back in the city (2 Kings 7:9-16). They told them an amazing message of hope. At first people were skeptical, as many are today. But then they decided to investigate for themselves, and they found out it was all true. There was good news after all. The whole city was saved because a few people were bold enough to share the good news. In the New Testament Jesus commanded his disciples to spread the good news to everyone everywhere. Every Christian has a responsibility to communicate this message of hope (2 Corinthians 5:20). We need to do this personally, spreading the word to your friends, family and contacts. We need to do this urgently like the lepers who knew how desperate people were for hope, so they reported the news 'at once'. There is no time to lose in giving people hope (2 Corinthians 6:2). Today you can discover the good news of the hope that Jesus offers and then you need to become an ambassador of hope.  

Academy Award-winning vegan filmmaker and former National Geographic photographer Louie Psihoyos joins us to share how he is using the power of storytelling to spark transformation for animal rights, human health, and environmental conservation. Highlights include: How The Cove, his Oscar-wining documentary and the first documentary to sweep all the film guilds, inspired activism that helped reduce dolphin and porpoise slaughter in Japan by over 90%; How his team's audacious projection events of endangered species on iconic buildings including The Empire State Building, The United Nations and The Vatican for their film Racing Extinction, received over 5.4 billion media views and led to laws that protect some of Earth's most endangered animals; How his third film, The Game Changers, a film about plant-based super athletes that exposes the myth that meat is necessary for protein, strength, and optimal health, triggered a 350% spike in online searches within a month of premiering on Netflix; What his Netflix Series, You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment, uncovered about the 8-week health benefits of plant-based eating, and how the results went viral; His most recent film Mission: Joy a buddy film starring his Holiness, The Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu about how to find joy in a world of sorrow has been seen by 10's of millions of people around the globe; Where Louie's focus is turning next: a new film exposing the destructive health impacts of plastic. See episode website for show notes, links, and transcript:  https://www.populationbalance.org/podcast/louie-psihoyos   OVERSHOOT | Shrink Toward Abundance OVERSHOOT tackles today's interlocked social and ecological crises driven by humanity's excessive population and consumption. The podcast explores needed narrative, behavioral, and system shifts for recreating human life in balance with all life on Earth. With expert guests from wide-ranging disciplines, we examine the forces underlying overshoot: from patriarchal pronatalism that is fueling overpopulation, to growth-biased economic systems that lead to consumerism and social injustice, to the dominant worldview of human supremacy that subjugates animals and nature. Our vision of shrinking toward abundance inspires us to seek pathways of transformation that go beyond technological fixes toward a new humanity that honors our interconnectedness with all beings.  Hosted by Nandita Bajaj and Alan Ware.

The resurrection is not a happy ending.“Resurrection is not an invitation to escape the world; it is an invitation to change it.” — Desmond Tutu

Many of the most prominent social activists in the last half century or so have also been contemplatives: Howard Thurman, the Dalai Lama, and Thomas Merton among others. Does the sort of spirituality we talk about here have things to offer in a world like ours where people feel daily outrages flowing through their media feeds? Might our practices actually be negative--in that moving past constant reactivity might make us too passive? But surely constant outrage mostly leads to hopelessness (and unpleasant days). Dave Schmelzer is joined by Grace Schmelzer and Steve Joh (a former pastor who currently leads a network of small, spacious, spiritual, Christian communities in the Bay Area) for a lively conversation about all of this, including a look at the most commonly discussed spiritual approach to addressing such times.Mentioned on this podcast:Register your interest in the next Faith Part 2 course here.Arbor communities in the Bay AreaThe Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path for Healing Ourselves and Our World, by Desmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu

Given our political situation in the United States, you may be hearing a lot of people–myself included–talk about living your values. Not just professing them, but really living them, even when it's uncomfortable. It's hard work that requires a lot of internal fortitude.But we so often default to acting against our values in order to protect ourselves and those we love from real or perceived danger–to our jobs, our reputations, dignity, physical safety, and more. We try to protect ourselves with compliance, while our silence does real harm to others.Those who have a history of relational trauma are especially likely to fear speaking up, even as they know their values and moral expectations are being violated. This collision of relational trauma with moral injury reinforces beliefs that the world is unsafe and that people in power cannot be trusted.My guest today is a survivor of abuse and cultish communities. She leans on her experiences of relational trauma and moral injury in her writing, teaching, and advocacy. The ongoing healing of her relational and betrayal wounds allows her to lead with courage and clarity, especially when it is not easy or convenient.Jamie Marich, Ph.D. (she/they) speaks internationally on EMDR therapy, trauma, addiction, dissociation, expressive arts, yoga, and mindfulness. They also run a private practice and online training network in their home base of Akron, OH. Marich has written numerous books, notably Trauma and the 12 Steps: An Inclusive Guide to Recovery and Dissociation Made Simple: A Stigma-Free Guide to Embracing Your Dissociative Mind and Navigating Life. She has won numerous awards for LGBT+ and mental health advocacy, specifically in reducing stigma around dissociative disorders through the sharing of her own lived experience.Listen to the full episode to hear:How Jamie learned to have more compassion for her mother as the bystander in the course of writing her memoirHow asking can I make a change here? can aid in deciding when and how to speak upHow binary judgments of healthy or unhealthy, healed or unhealed devalue the lifelong journey and process of healingHow to deflate your own judgments about where others are in their own journeysWhy leaders in health and wellness spaces need to be wary of one true way thinkingHow Jamie unpacked the concept of forgiveness from her religious childhood and made space for compassion and letting goHow growing up pretending everything was fine made Jamie value authenticity more fiercely as an adultLearn more about Dr. Jamie Marich:WebsiteRedefine TherapyThe Institute for Creative MindfulnessInstagram: @drjamiem, @traumatherapistrants TikTok: @traumatherapistrantsYouTube: @DrJamieMMYou Lied to Me About GodLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Hidden Brain | Marching to Your Own Drummer with Sunita SahJonathan Shay, MD, PhDFrancine ShapiroNo Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model, Richard Schwartz Ph.D.The Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path for Healing Ourselves and Our World, Desmond Tutu and Mpho TutuEMDR Made Simple: 4 Approaches to Using EMDR with Every Client, Jamie MarichHarvey MilkParable of the Sower, Octavia E ButlerI'm Not That GirlWickedRainbow BriteCats

In this episode, I talk about 3 things that ADHD can look like, in my experience from my own child, and what is actually going on. I am not an expert on neurodiversity but have listened to many episodes of the Beautifully Complex podcast that has included many expert interviews, and I'd like to think that I am an expert (at least) on my own child. I hope this episode helps all people who know someone who is neurodiverse (which I imagine is most of us)- much of this applies to autism as well- and to neurodiverse folks as well, who may (or may not) see themselves in my 3 lessons. Briefly 1) ADHD can look like defiance/not listening, 2) ADHD can look like not paying attention and 3) ADHD can look like laziness. And my quote at the end is from Desmond Tutu and was incorrect. Here is the correct version: "There comes a point where we need to stop just pulling people out of the river. We need to go upstream and find out why they're falling in."

Exodus 34:29-35; Luke 9:28-36“God places us in the world as fellow workers-agents of transfiguration. We workwith God so that injustice is transfigured into justice, so there will be morecompassion and caring, that there will be more laughter and joy, that there will bemore togetherness in God's world.”-Desmond Tutu

This is our unabridged interview with Mpho Tutu van Furth. What does it mean to ask someone for forgiveness? The experience after Apartheid in South Africa has much to teach us. “In English, you say, ‘I'm sorry, forgive me.' It's all about me”  Says Mpho Tutu van Furth, daughter to the late Desmond Tutu. But in the South African language of Xhosa “You say ndicela uxolo which means ‘I ask for peace'. And that's a very different thing than ‘forgive me'” In this episode, explore the deep impact of apartheid in South Africa, the meaning of true forgiveness, and the profound philosophy of Ubuntu. Discover how Mpho carries on her father's legacy of peace and reconciliation while navigating her own journey as an Episcopalian priest and social activist. This heartfelt and enlightening conversation delves into the courage required to love, forgive, and build a just community. Show Notes Resources mentioned this episode: The Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation Forgiveness and Reparation: The Healing Journey by Mpho Tutu The Book of Forgiving by Desdmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa   Similar NSE episodes: Azim Khamisa: Ending Violence Through Forgiveness Forgiving My Mother's Murderer: Sharon Risher Pádraig Ó Tuama: A Poet's Work in Peace and Reconciliation PDF of Lee's Interview Notes Transcript of Abridged Episode Want more NSE?

Has the Kingdom come? How do we know? Jesus spoke about the Kingdom as both already here and still to come.  It has been inaugurated but not yet consummated. Has it come to our church, our homes, and our lives? Look for a harvest. Message based on Matthew 13:1-9.Quotes:Augustine: You called, shouted, broke through my deafness; you flared, blazed, banished my blindness; you lavished your fragrance, I gasped; and now I pant for you; I tasted you, and now I hunger and thirst; you touched me, and I burned for your peace.Duane Brooks: As long as we're alive, our hearts can soften to the good news that God is trying to give us.David Buttrick: There are people at Niagara Falls who hurry from the marvelous torrent to a cheap and crowded carnival. Alexander Findley: Indeed, it's not easy to be a Christian, but it is easy to start.David Redding: Christianity is fighting a losing battle in so many of our lives, not because we are bad, but because we're too busy with our backpacks of secondhand stuff that become more important to us than Christ.Charles H. Spurgeon: If you are a real Christian, you can't fall off the boat, you can fall on the boat and break all your bones and spend the whole trip in the infirmary.Buti Thlagale: (about Desmond Tutu) at his age, he should hate a little bit more.Duane Brooks: The same seed that Jesus planted is after all the answer. The good news of Jesus Christ is enough to meet us where we are. Cast all your cares upon him because he cares for you.Audrey Assad: Love planted deeply becomes what it ought to be.Duane Brooks: Don't you want to become what you ought to be? Not a hard heart, not a shallow heart, not a divided heart, good and noble heart, good seed, good soil, good life, good God who gives it to us.#faith #healing #gospel #transformation #hopeTo discover more messages of hope go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on Instagram, X, and YouTube @tallowoodbc.Follow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist

The legend returns! Adland's original rock ‘n' roller Robert Campbell is back for another round of epic stories, outrageous lessons and jedi-wisdom you won't find anywhere else.

Darren Earlywine delves into the first of four core questions: "Who am I?" He explores the importance of understanding one's identity and vocational voice to live purposefully. Darren discusses the concept of being created on purpose and for a purpose, and examines five key vocational voices: pioneers, creatives, connectors, nurturers, and guardians. He emphasizes the impact of knowing one's true voice and the dangers of impersonating an identity that isn't authentic. Through insights from guests like Desmond Tutu and Casey Musgraves, listeners are encouraged to find clarity in their life's calling.   Key Takeaways: Understanding your vocational voice is crucial to living a purposeful and authentic life. The concept of being created "on purpose and for purpose" highlights the importance of individual uniqueness. There are five vocational voices: Pioneer, Creative, Connector, Nurturer, and Guardian, each contributing uniquely to the world. Recognizing and valuing all voices is essential for building effective teams and communities. Avoid living a "bad impersonation" of yourself by aligning with your true vocational identity.   Quotes: "If you don't know your vocational voice, you might be doing a bad impersonation of yourself." "You are someone who was created on purpose and for purpose." "In the beginning, God created. He started it all." "A vocation is not something you try; it's someone you become." "We are created to create and design, to design."   For speaking inquiries, please go to: https://rb.gy/almn79 Daron Earlewine is on a mission to help others understand their unique design and to inspire them to make a significant impact in this world.

Forgiveness is an essential part of the healing journey, not because it erases the past but because it frees us from being trapped in it. True healing isn't about forgetting what happened or pretending pain never existed—it's about acknowledging the hurt while choosing to move forward with strength and grace. Forgiveness, whether for ourselves or others, allows us to release the weight of resentment and step into a life filled with more peace, joy, and emotional freedom. It is an act of courage, a gift we give not only to those who have wronged us but to ourselves, creating space for growth, love, and new beginnings.In this episode, we explore the transformative power of forgiveness—both self-forgiveness and forgiving others—and how it shapes long-term happiness and joy with Rev. Lizzie McManus Dail.  Rev. Lizzie has lived all over the world with her boots now rooted in Austin, Texas, where she is living her dream as the founder of Jubilee Episcopal Church. Lizzie is passionate about the evangelism of a God who makes each of us for joy, which is why you might see her doing silly dances and talking about church history on Instagram and TikTok with her 90K followers. As a graduate of Mt. Holyoke College, Lizzie brought a passion for intersectional feminism and queer theology to her studies at Duke Divinity School and Seminary of the Southwest. It was her time in both Massachusetts and North Carolina that brought her into the Episcopal church, where she was ordained in 2020. While grateful for her academic formation, she still swears most things she learned about being a priest she learned from 5 plus years of working in the service industry and access to the arts in her public high school.  Tune in!What You Will Learn:[00:01] Intro and a bit about our guest today, Rev.

"There comes a time when we need to stop just pulling people out of the river. We need to go upstream and find out why they're falling in."
– Desmond Tutu This powerful quote from Desmond Tutu captures the essence of the work Amy O'Brien is doing to support women and mothers. In this episode of No Place Like Homb, Amy joins Larissa and special guest host, Robynne to explore how this philosophy shapes the model of care in her practice, Reverence Story. https://www.junospecialists.au/ https://www.reverencestory.com/

This episode is for those who are struggling with life. Maybe you're feeling lost. Maybe your soul is weighed down and it feels like an elephant is sitting on your chest. Maybe you've been battling depression, feeling like the darkness is just too much. Desmond Tutu once said: “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.” You might be saying to yourself, “I don't see any light right now.” And that's cool…I don't expect you to ignore the darkness. But I do expect you to know that even if you can't see the light yet, it is there. Want to connect?

How Richard McCann found peace after his mother's murder by Peter Sutcliffe. At just 5 years old, Richard's life was shattered when his mother was brutally murdered by the serial killer known as the Yorkshire Ripper. In the aftermath, Richard endured further hardship, including a difficult home life and personal struggles with drugs and incarceration. Yet, through it all, Richard managed not only to survive, but to ultimately find the courage to forgive his mother's killer, liberating himself in the process. Richard's journey of forgiveness was deeply influenced by the teachings of figures like Desmond Tutu, who emphasised the liberating power of forgiveness, even in the face of the most heinous acts. We discuss ·      Richard's story and journey of forgiveness ·      His insights on the importance of acceptance, forgiveness and resilience ·      The ripple effect of Richard's story and message, and how it has impacted countless lives ·      Richard's belief in spiritual interconnectedness and the role of synchronicity in his life Links: ·      Connect with Richard on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmccann ·      Learn more about Richard's work: https://richardmccann.co.uk/ The paperback edition of my book, Champion Thinking: Get Out of Your Own Way, Find Your Peak Performance, is now available.

As we continue a new series for 2025 on people who lived out their faith, colleagues in ministry Natalie, Sarah, and Steve explore the life and legacy of Archbishop Desmond Tutu.  From his life experience during and after the apartheid era in South Africa to his deep faith and accessible but profound theology, there is a great deal that the contemporary American church can learn from Tutu's witness today.  In this conversation we'll explore the nature of the Truth and Reconcilation Commission in South Africa, the concept of "ubuntu" in Tutu's theology, and the claim that "God has a dream." We'll also explore Tutu's fruitful partnership and friendship with the Dalai Lama and his witness as a voice for nonviolent response to tyrannical regimes.  Lots of good places to learn and be inspired, on this week's Crazy Faith Talk!

The historical entanglement of Christianity and racism, marked by theological distortions,colonial complicity, and institutional practices, underscores the urgent need for honest reflection and accountability. While the church has often perpetuated racial hierarchies, it hasalso inspired transformative movements for justice and liberation through figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Desmond Tutu, and the development of Black and Liberation Theology. To address its past, the church must commit to repentance and reconciliation, re-evaluate theological teachings, promote inclusive leadership, encourage dialogue, and educate congregations to challenge systemic racism. By embracing its foundational principles of love, justice, and equality, Christianity can become a force for racial reconciliation and social renewal, embodying the inclusive vision of the Kingdom of God.

En Afrique du Sud, dans le township le plus célèbre du pays, Soweto, Noël se fête avec un barbecue. Ce township connu notamment pour sa culture très riche, et pour abriter les maisons de deux prix Nobel, l'archevêque Desmond Tutu et l'ancien président Nelson Mandela. Là-bas, pour Noël, on se retrouve autour d'un barbecue, que l'on appelle « Braai ». De notre correspondant en Afrique du Sud,Nous voilà sur le parking d'une station service en plein cœur de Soweto, en Afrique du Sud. C'est ici qu'un nouveau restaurant propose des dégustations. « On propose aux gens qui viennent prendre de l'essence d'entrer et de goûter nos plats » explique Lungisa. Alors, nous entrons. « Bienvenue à Sakhumzi », lâche Lungisa et Jumo le manager.« Les Sud-Africains adorent le Braai », précise Jumo. À Noël à Soweto, le Braai est l'incontournable. « Oui, exactement, peut-être même que le père Noël aime le Braai lui aussi !! » dit Jumo en riant.« Je suis le Chef Keke. Voici un plateau pour deux avec des saucisses, des steaks et du poulet. Je vous ai aussi mis des frites. » Avec cette commande de Braai de Noël sur place, Noël se fête avec les clients et les propriétaires du lieu. « Oui ! Joyeux Noël ! » lâche Lungisa.Le barbecue de Noël chez un particulierÀ quelques pâtés de maisons du restaurant, on fête aussi Noël. Cette fois dans un jardin. « On est chez moi ! dit Lebo en guise d'accueil. C'est un moment qui nous permet de passer du bon temps et de célébrer Noël tous ensemble. On fait comme ça à Soweto. On vient de quartiers différents, mais on est là, ensemble. On se relaxe, on est en vie, heureux. La vie est belle !! » conclut-elle.C'est un bon moment entre amis et en famille. « On vous souhaite le plus merveilleux des Noël » souhaite à la foule la fille de Lebo et son cousin au micro. « C'est le plus beau jour de l'année » confie le cousin. « Parce qu'on passe du temps avec sa famille et ses amis », renchérit la fille de Lebo.À lire aussiAu Kenya et en Côte d'Ivoire, l'effervescence des retours en province pour passer Noël en familleSoweto, la culture du Ubuntu« Salut DJ, raconte un peu à la radio française comment ça se passe ! » lance un petit garçon au DJ. « On adore la musique.

Krista Tippett's work in the realm of spirituality and human experience is unparalleled. She just has a divine gift for distilling complex topics into clear, palatable information that we can sit with, dissect, and examine. She uses her OnBeing podcast as a place to conduct honest conversations with theologians and thought leaders about what it means to be human, what it means to be alive. Curiosity is welcome in her space. She brings a sense of calm to everything around her. So during the frenzy of the holidays, which can be both joyful and stressful, we wanted to circle back to this centering conversation with Krista to decompress and be at peace with the world. This conversation feels like an oasis in what is always a chaotic month so it's our gift to bring it back for you this week.  Segments: Bless and Release: Rules for holiday decorating and making the holidays magical GenXcellence: Essentials for outfitting a GenX space *** Thought-provoking Quotes: If a thing is feeling stressful and not joyful, it needs to be re-evaluated. – Jen Hatmaker I actually found in the Bible, reading it for myself directly, that it completely honored the questions, and it honored the anguish, and it was full of things that didn't make sense or were contradictory. And for me that was an opening to not feel that faith had to be in opposition to what didn't make sense or was contradictory. – Krista Tippett There has to be a way to represent the complexity of this, and also the centrality of it, the fact that it's more about questions than it is about answers, and the array of how we walk around with this, and what it means in our lives, and the ways we practice, and the vocabulary we have, and the different ways we pray. I wanted to show that you could talk about this and we could speak about the part of ourselves that we mean when we use language of religious or spiritual. – Krista Tippett The sensibility, the intentionality with which something is offered, shapes the reaction that comes at it. – Krista Tippett I do have a spiritual homeland and I do have a spiritual mother tongue.

Suffering and Joy seem incompatible, but in this talk Mary shows how they are not mutually exclusive. Joy is not dependent on outside circumstances. As teacher Larry Ward has said, "Joy is possible in the midst of suffering and without ignoring the suffering." Using the wisdom of several authors, Mary talks about how we can access joy without waiting for everything to be okay. With our practice we create the conditions for joy to arise at any time.Recorded Nov. 23, 2024 in the virtual worldBooks mentioned in this talk:Joy is My Justice by Taneet Sethi, MDJoyfully Just by Kamilia Majie, PhDAwakening Joy by James Baraz and Shoshanna AlexanderThe Book of Joy by Desmond Tutu and the Dalai LamaSend me a text with any questions or comments!Visit Mary's website for more info on classes and teachings.

I am thrilled to announce that our new book, the Kindness Daily Reader: Season One, is now available on Amazon. (See Link Below)  Secondly, we are embarking on a new chapter with Season Three of the One Kind Moment podcast. In Season One, we primarily focused on broad topics of kindness and compassion, while in Season Two, we explored areas such as self-compassion, self-help, and self-care. Now, in Season Three, we're shifting our focus to a specific area of self-care that we call Practical Spirituality for Everyone. We'll be delving into topics like spirituality in nature, spiritual intelligence, everyday mindfulness, the science of consciousness, the mystery of life, the science of awe, and managing uncertainty. We're excited to take this new direction and are grateful for your continued support and interest in the One Kind Moment podcast. EXPLORE OUR NEW BOOK!

After accomplished stints as a journalist, author and diplomat, and studying theology at Yale Divinity School, Krista Tippett was struck by a significant gap in the media landscape—a lack of deep, intelligent conversations to explore the spiritual, ethical and moral aspects of human life. What began as a national public radio show in 2003 evolved into the multiple award-winning podcast “On Being” (“wisdom to replenish and orient in a tender, tumultuous time to be alive.”) Gifted with insatiable curiosity, profound relational intelligence, a poetic sensibility, and an ability to unearth revelatory ideas to live by, Krista creates spaces where wisdom can emerge. With her interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral whole systems overview, she's hosted luminaries as disparate as Mary Oliver, Thich Nhat Hahn, Isabel Wilkerson and Desmond Tutu, among many more. Listen to this rare intimate, live interview with her friend, insightful strategist, philanthropist and activist Azita Ardakani.

“We sit on some of the best grains in the world… things that can grow in really tough environments and give you harvests several times a year.”Celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson was born in Ethiopia but was adopted by a Swedish couple and taken to Sweden as a small child after his mother died of tuberculosis.After travelling across Europe and to Japan for his training, he rose to prominence as a chef in the US - cooking for the rich and famous including Barack and Michelle Obama, Desmond Tutu, Nelson Mandela and Oprah Winfrey.

Host Razia Iqbal sits down with the celebrated civil rights lawyer and activist Bryan Stevenson, a man as dedicated to his chosen profession as James Baldwin was to his.Stevenson is the founder of the Equal Justice Initiative, based in Montgomery, Alabama, which has not only transformed the conversation about the disproportionate numbers of incarcerated Black Americans, but has also challenged how we think about the criminal justice system and the system's treatment of children in particular. He's been described by the late South African bishop and civil rights activist Desmond Tutu as “America's Nelson Mandela.” Stevenson also initiated the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, and continues to make us all think about the lived legacy of more than 200 years of slavery in the U.S. By Stevenson's own admission, Baldwin has had a profound impact on his life, professionally and personally. When asked to choose a single Baldwin quote that inspires him, Stevenson chose three, and an exception was made in the interest of an exceptional conversation. Tell us what you think.

En Afrique du Sud, la fondation Nelson Mandela a invité, à l'occasion de sa 22ème conférence annuelle, l'auteur d'origine tanzanienne Abdulrazak Gurnah, prix Nobel de littérature 2021, à venir parler des questions d'identité, de migration, et d'appartenance. L'écrivain installé au Royaume-Uni a publié dix romans, dont Près de la mer, qui a reçu le prix RFI « Témoin du monde » en 2007. Il continue toujours à écrire et un nouvel ouvrage devrait sortir en mars, en anglais. Il répond, à l'occasion de son déplacement à Johannesburg, aux questions de Claire Bargelès. RFI : Abdulrazak Gurnah, bonjour. Quel message avez-vous envie de transmettre, cette année, au travers de cette plateforme offerte par la Fondation Nelson Mandela, qui a vu défiler par le passé des figures comme Desmond Tutu et Barack Obama ?Pour être honnête, je n'ai pas écouté ce qu'ils ont dit, mais je peux très bien l'imaginer, car lorsque l'on doit connecter son discours au nom de Nelson Mandela, on va forcément parler de justice ou des ressources que l'on peut déployer face à l'oppression et la terreur.Ayant vous-même quitté Zanzibar en 1967, pour un meilleur avenir en Angleterre, vos écrits parlent beaucoup de l'exil, de l'étranger qui arrive dans un nouveau pays, pour trouver refuge. Est-ce aussi un message pour l'Afrique du Sud en proie aux tensions xénophobes ?Cette question ne concerne pas uniquement l'Afrique du Sud, ces mêmes problèmes touchent beaucoup d'autres endroits, en Europe, en Amérique du Nord. C'est un phénomène important de notre époque, car on observe de larges déplacements de populations. Ce n'est pas quelque chose de nouveau dans notre histoire humaine, mais désormais le mouvement se fait des pays du Sud vers les pays du Nord. Et cela a créé une panique. Certains y répondent de façon humaine, mais pas tous.Votre conférence s'intitule « une exploration de notre humanité partagée » : souhaitez-vous remettre l'accent sur le concept sud-africain de l'« Ubuntu », basé sur la solidarité et le fait de se reconnaître en l'autre ?Je suppose que oui. Mais ce n'est pas parce qu'on l'appelle ici « Ubuntu » que c'est une invention sud-africaine, d'autres endroits ont le même concept, sous un autre nom. Cela se résume, en fait, à la même chose, à cette idée que l'on doit apprendre à recevoir l'autre, dans nos cœurs et nos esprits, et à ne pas créer de barrières. En d'autres mots, il faut réaliser qu'il y a tant de choses que l'on a en commun. Parmi les façons d'y parvenir, on peut lire les histoires d'autres gens, pour mieux les connaître, écouter leur musique et comprendre leurs problèmes.Votre œuvre revient également sur les traces laissées par la colonisation, sur le poids du passé : diriez-vous que ces questions de mémoire continuent de travailler l'Afrique dans son ensemble ?Je ne pense pas que cela se cantonne à l'Afrique, ce sont des questions essentielles. Lorsqu'un auteur écrit sur la migration des Irlandais aux États-Unis, c'est la même démarche, pour essayer de comprendre la signification de s'établir ailleurs, et d'être un étranger dans un autre pays. Mais comme je l'ai dit tout à l'heure, cela concerne les Africains d'une façon beaucoup plus dramatique, et les habitants du Sud en général, qui partent en grand nombre, en quête d'une vie meilleure. Les Européens ont fait ça pendant des siècles, se rendant en Amérique du Nord, en Australie, en Afrique du Sud… Et ils ont forcé les personnes qu'ils ont trouvées sur place à se déplacer, ou les ont parfois tuées. Donc ce n'est pas un nouveau phénomène.Que vous a apporté votre prix Nobel, reçu il y a trois ans ? Qu'est-ce qui a changé depuis ?Cela m'a rendu très heureux. Pour beaucoup de gens dans le monde, mon travail est devenu intéressant et j'ai désormais nombre de nouveaux lecteurs, dans des langues différentes. Et puis, c'est aussi, bien sûr, une sorte d'affirmation, comme si quelqu'un vous disait « je pense que tu es un très bon écrivain », donc merci beaucoup !Vous êtes le cinquième auteur du continent africain à recevoir le prix Nobel de littérature : existe-t-il encore une sous-exposition des écrivains africains et avez-vous un souhait de voir quelqu'un, en particulier, être récompensé à votre suite le 10 octobre prochain ?Je n'aime pas vraiment ces questions qui rattachent les auteurs au pays d'où ils viennent, car cela nous ramène à des divisions continentales ou nationales. On parle de ces cinq Prix africains, mais je crois qu'il n'y a eu, par exemple, qu'un seul prix indien. Aujourd'hui, cela n'a plus vraiment à voir avec le pays d'origine, ce qui est reconnu, c'est la qualité de l'écriture, pas si cet écrivain vient d'Afrique ou d'ailleurs. Bien sûr, je souhaite que beaucoup d'autres auteurs du continent reçoivent le Prix, mais je voudrais surtout qu'ils le reçoivent parce qu'ils le méritent.En ce qui concerne la Tanzanie, êtes-vous inquiet de voir les autorités durcir leurs positions l'égard des opposants politiques ?Pour être tout à fait honnête, je ne connais pas les détails des récentes affaires. Le gouvernement est assez réticent à l'idée de tolérer l'opposition, mais il apprend peu à peu à le faire. Donc, dans un sens, il y a du progrès, puisqu'il essaye de comprendre comment laisser les partis d'opposition fonctionner. Cependant, il est vrai qu'à partir d'un certain point, il se dit qu'il doit intervenir et les arrêter. Mais, honnêtement, ce n'est pas un sujet que je connais très bien.Abdurazak Gurnah, merci beaucoup

This week, we share a "Space for God" devotional guided by Ken Wettig (Coracle Community Minister), who shares a story from Desmond Tutu, a South African Anglican Bishop and theologian.  It is a profound story about Tutu's first encounter with Trevor Huddleston, a white Anglican priest who came across a young Tutu and his mother one day on the street.  Huddleston's actions that day changed the course of Tutu's life and captured something transformative about God's heart of empathy. We hope you'll follow along to see how the story unfolds and how God wants to encounter you through it!View Our Complete Archive of “Space for God” Prayer PracticesLearn More About Spiritual Direction through Coracleinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the show

Mumia Abu-Jamal has spent the last forty-two of his seventy years on Earth behind the bars of a Pennsylvania state prison, twenty-nine and a half of those on Death Row based on a dubious and extremely flawed and biased conviction for murder. Today, we explore his story and what it tells us about what Ralph calls our “criminal injustice system.” We speak to Noelle Hanranah, the founder and legal director of Prison Radio for which Mumia has done thousands of commentaries, and Professor Joy James, political philosopher, academic and author, who has studied America's carceral state. Plus, we get the rare opportunity to speak to Mumia himself, who answers our questions from prison.Joy James is Ebenezer Fitch Professor of Humanities at Williams College. Professor James has published numerous articles on: political theory, police, prison and slavery abolition; radicalizing feminisms; diasporic anti-black racism; and US politics. She is the author and editor of several books including The New Abolitionists: (Neo)Slave Narratives and Contemporary Prison Writings, Imprisoned Intellectuals, Resisting State Violence, and Warfare in the American Homeland.[Mumia's] a treasure. And I don't want to make him an isolate. I think there are a number of people who have been incarcerated for decades who study and struggle—that's a phrase people use in terms of books reaching the incarcerated, but also the writings of the incarcerated coming out of prisons. They enable us to be able to learn and study with them. If not physically in the same space, definitely with the same ethics and the same commitments.Joy JamesThe way that I see what we're struggling against—which I believe echoes what Mumia has been writing about and talking about—is very complex, overlapping systems of containment and control in which poor- and working-class people are going to be the most negatively affected.Joy JamesNoelle Hanrahan is the founder and legal director of Prison Radio, a multimedia production studio that brings the voices of incarcerated people into the public debate. Since 1992, she has produced over 3,500 multimedia recordings from over 100 prison radio correspondents, including the critically acclaimed work of Mumia Abu-Jamal.[Mumia Abu-Jamal is] facing a system in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia, which literally does not privilege the U.S. Constitution. It's more interested in finality…So they privilege procedure over merit.Noelle HanrahanMumia Abu Jamal is an award-winning broadcast journalist, essayist, and author of 12 books. Most recently, he's completed the historic trilogy Murder Incorporated (Perfecting Tyranny, Dreaming of Empire, and America's Favorite Pastime.) In the late 1970s, Abu-Jamal worked as a reporter for radio stations throughout the Delaware Valley. In 1981, Abu-Jamal was elected president of the Association of Black Journalists' Philadelphia chapter. Since 1982, Abu-Jamal has lived in state prison (28 of those years were spent in solitary confinement on death row.) Currently, he's serving life without parole at SCI Mahanoy in Frackville, PA. Abu-Jamal's 1982 trial and its resultant first-degree murder conviction have been criticized as unconstitutionally corrupt by legal and activist groups for decades, including by Amnesty International and Nobel Laureates Nelson Mandela, Toni Morrison, and Desmond Tutu.I love it when I hear or read about so-called conservatives talking about “two tiers of justice.” Justice if anything is at least three tiers— it's one tier for white people, another tier for black folks, and a third tier for the very rich. Now guess who gets sweetest deals? I mean look, it doesn't take a rocket scientist, right? If you're rich in this country, you can get every break that you can afford. You can get the best justice, the best lawyers, and they will fight wars.Mumia Abu-JamalWhen prisoners use the phone or go to the commissary—every item you buy, every call you make, it's taxed. So what about taxation without representation, in this so-called democracy, where every voice should be heard, and every person should be allowed the opportunity to vote?Mumia Abu-JamalIn prison, the most important thing, the one thing that stops guys from coming back is education. The most important thing is education. I would even say what people need is a deep colonial education, especially in prison.Mumia Abu-JamalI never succumbed to calling our system a criminal justice system—it's a criminal injustice system, because it reflects raceand class bias to an extraordinary degree. The studies have been overwhelming on this. You don't see many corporate criminals in jail these days. You don't see many prosecutions. You don't see many investigations of the corporate crime wave that takes a far greater toll in lives, injuries, and property than street crime does. But then, the system reflects the power structure.Ralph Nader Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe
