Qui se souvient de la grève du sexe menée par les femmes du Nicaragua au XVIème siècle, ou de la grève des ovalistes en France en 1869 ou bien celle des Islandaises en 1975 ? Malgré leur invisibilisation par les récits officiels, les femmes ont toujours été présentes dans l'espace militant à travers les siècles et les continents, et leur présence fut bien souvent déterminante.

Is it possible to partner for peace with those we could call our “enemies?”Abigail Disney lost some of her community when she built a relationship with the hero of the “opposite side,” pastor Rob Schenck. But along the way, despite their differences, she found a friend and partner for peace in a place she never expected. She documented their story in the feature-length documentary, The Armor of Light, which went on to win an Emmy Award. Abigail has spent her life self-interrogating the stories she finds herself in and advocating for change. She's asked difficult questions about her family's history of enslaving human beings. She's worked to amplify the story of the successful women-led peace movement in Liberia. And now, she's advocating for a shared future in our own home by reminding us what's possible when we put aside our expectations and fears, and truly seek relationships with those we least expect to love.--Read and share the Principles and Practices of PeacemakingSubscribe to the Telos Newsletter for more news analysis and peacemaking resources: http://eepurl.com/cG1LGHFollow Telos on Instagram @thetelosgroupIf you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Resources from this episode:All Ears with Abigail DisneyPray the Devil Back to Hell - Documentary film on role of women in the Liberian peace processThe Armor of Light (Emmy Award Winner) - Documentary film on crossing lines of difference over a vision of shared humanity and the future of gun rights in America
One of the best maneuvers in a fight is a counterpunch. The same is true when we're fighting the Devil! What do you do when he hits you with a temptation? What do you do when he's whispering a lie in your ear, and you're struggling not to believe it? What do you do when you feel like you're on the ropes and losing the battle? You HIT BACK! This message will give us some tools to hit back against the Enemy when he's swinging at us. We will discover that not only are we more powerful than we know, but we also have more resources than we realized.
Such a delight to re-connect to my colleague from many moons ago – Peter Coleman – who, just for the record, is not my relative. Our paths crossed beginning sometime around 1995, at the International Center for Cooperation and Conflict Resolution, the “ICCCR” at Teacher's College, Columbia University, where we worked together on many cool initiatives until I left around 2003. My partner Ellen Raider, with whom I had been delivering intercultural negotiation programs around the world, brought me into the Center after connecting with Mort Deutsch – who is often referred to as a grandfather of conflict resolution, and perhaps the grandfather of conflict resolution in the west. At the Center, Ellen and I created the first certificate program in conflict resolution at Teacher's College – which included collaborative negotiation, mediation and then a growing list of related and interesting skill sets like using large group processes to resolve conflict and create systemic culture change. At the time of my arrival, Peter was a graduate student, Mort Deutsche's protégé – and I watched him rise to where he is today as head of the center and now a well respected social psychologist and researcher in the field of conflict resolution and sustainable peace -- probably best known for his work on intractable conflict. Prompted by the publication of his new book, The Way Out: How to Overcome Toxic Polarization, I asked Peter to join me on the podcast for a conversation -- and draw from his book, his work, his life (anything that he felt was most relevant) to address the role of gender, gender equality, gender transformation, and its connection to building a more peaceful, democratic and sustainable world. He agreed and we had a great conversation which we bring to you now. As those of you who have followed me on this podcast know I -- along with many --believe that getting gender “right”, the role of gender, moving beyond outdated patriarchal structures, is THE foundational challenge to building a much more peaceful, sustainable and pleasurable planet for humanity and other living creatures By way of example, allow me to repeat the poignant and on target words of Shabana Basij-Rasikh, who is the co-founder and president of a School of Leadership for women in Afghanistan who said recently in the Washington Post: "Educated girls grow to become educated women, and educated women will not allow their children to become terrorists. The secret to a peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan is no secret at all: It is educated girls." That statement makes me want to cry. What a tragic but accurate comment after the countless lives lost, the total pain for so many Afghans now, and the trillions my country just wasted in our two decades of war in Afghanistan the costs of which were so intelligently tracked by The Costs of War project who we had on this podcast a while back. Using military or policing force is not generally the best solution to conflict – genuinely meeting people's needs is. It's not that complicated. But moving beyond the money that drives the choice of using force is complicated, and we need to figure this out like, yesterday. So, here are some of what I call my “favorite frames” from Peter's and my conversation: Reminiscing about our early years at the ICCCR – and a moment when we had a room filled with teachers, guidance counselors, principals from all the approximately 188 New York City schools – the largest school system in the country and perhaps the world, convened to learn critical negotiation and conflict resolution skills. It was awesome; The seeds that were planted in Peter to do a life's work in the field of peace and conflict – his reflections on himself as a 7-year-old, the influence of being raised by women, turbulent times in Chicago, the presence of Martin Luther King, the “macro-worry” that began to build in his young awareness of social justice issues and the related conflict about them; A conference he convened to change the conversation from ‘negative' peace – like addressing violence prevention and atrocity mitigation to ‘positive peace' – like creating communities that will foster harmonious relations in which destructive conflict is far less likely to erupt. Similar to why I moved from doing more traditional mediation to more “upstream” organizational mediation, using organization development methodologies, or getting conflicting parties to focus on the positive thing they are trying to create v. the negative thing they are trying to avoid or, like in the health field, focusing on what creates health and allows humans to flourish rather than having a disease orientation. An energy follows where we place our attention kind of idea — which is super important. Anyway, Peter's conclusion was that the conference was a huge failure because no one wanted to talk about positive peace with the exception of Doug P. Fry, who we also recently interviewed on this podcast. And, another frame, how at that same conference he had invited Abby Disney – the creator of the amazing film series Women War and Peace, who kept raising her hand and saying, I don't want to be the gadfly but – how can we talk about the mitigation of violence without talking about gender and men and their role in this? Peter and I shared our appreciation of Sebastian Junger's 2016 book, Tribe, where he reported a profound observation of how early American settlers that had been captured by native tribes, when given the opportunity to return to the European colonies did not want to go back, without exception, because they preferred their lives among native communities; And the frame that most stands out to me, and unfortunately is a discouraging one. Peter tells the tale of working with the amazing Leymah Gbowee, who I have mentioned many times on this podcast, to create a Women Peace and Security program at Columbia, that would provide technical and financial resources to some amazing younger women I think mostly from Africa who have been doing peacebuilding work. Like the badass Riya Yuyada who I interviewed a while back on this podcast. In spite of the huge need for the program and the thousands of applications to it, the program sadly is closing this year. And that's in spite of the fact that Leymah is Leymah, an amazing woman, a Nobel Laureate, and if you don't know who I'm talking about, watch Pray the Devil Back to Hell a documentary created by Abbie Disney about how Leymah and other women, a way that only women could pull off, brought an end to the Liberian civil war. The program was not able to raise the $25,000,000 needed to keep the program open in perpetuity, a paltry sum given the amount of money that is flying around on this planet. And this was in spite of the fact that you couldn't have a more compelling person spearheading the program – the poster child of the Melinda Gates foundation of Oprah. And that's not because of any shortcomings on Leymah's part but much more about where our level of consciousness about what's going to create a world that we all want to live in for the next number of centuries. It's a fact that reinforces my belief that we women really need to get our ovaries together when it comes to money and how it's spent. As I mentioned in my episode about women money and power with Barbara Stanny Huson, women, at least in the US and maybe even globally are coming into huge financial resources, some say will have the majority of the financial resources in the 21st century. This is undoubtedly mostly white women in the US, sitting on so much dough that if we chose to actually use it in powerful ways we could really make a big diff to the world our kids are inheriting. As Barbara said, and I say now, Women's issues with using and taking charge of the resources we have little to do with our capacity and a lot to do with our ambivalence about power. So many of us still want men to take care of money for us and we have to stop doing this. Anyway, there are many more great frames from this conversation with Peter including insights about women and negotiation, social constructs about “the masculine”, “the feminine” and war, whether or not getting rid of binary gender pronouns is a peace movement, and --what it's been like for him -- as a white, tall, good looking dude working in a cauldron of conversation around conflict, peace, social justice and identity. So thank you Peter, and hope you all enjoy this rich episode.
In the final part (Part 4) of the series "NOT IN MY HOUSE," Fernie Franco Sr. mandates the Devil to back down from our Church. "And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."Jesus never promised that the gates of hell would not attack the church, he promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against the church.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pastorferni...Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Ferni...Fernando E.

Leymah Gbowee was only 17 when the Second Liberian Civil War erupted. Years of fighting destroyed her country—and her hopes and dreams. As a young mother trapped in a nightmare of domestic abuse, she found the courage to turn her bitterness into action, realizing that it is women who suffer most during conflicts—and that the power of women working together can create an unstoppable force. Working as a social worker and trauma counselor during the war, she organized the Women of Liberian Mass Action for Peace, a multicultural and multi-religious group who prayed for peace, held nonviolent protests including a sex strike, and brought forth a promise from President Charles Taylor to attend peace talks in Ghana. This group was crucial in bringing an end to the civil war in 2003 followed by the election of Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf in Liberia, the first African nation with a female president. Leymah is a co-founder and the Executive Director of Women Peace and Security Network Africa, an organization dedicated to training women and advocating peace and security in African governance. http://www.wipsen-africa.org/wipsen/ The author of Mighty Be Our Powers: How Sisterhood, Prayer, and Sex Changed a Nation at War, Leymah is also the central figure in "Pray the Devil Back to Hell," an award-winning documentary about the visionary women who demanded peace in Liberia. She holds a Master of Arts in Conflict Transformation from the Eastern Mennonite University and is a mother of five and just this week, Leymah was awarded Nobel Peace Prize along with President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Tawakul Karman of Yemen. Leymah Gbowee was introduced by Gayathri Rajan Engineering Product Management Director at Google.

Scripture For Today: 1 Corinthians 7:5 “Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.” Don't Let the Devil Back Inside In Matthew 12:43-44, Jesus said, “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he finds it empty, swept and garnished.” The bible is telling us in this verse that when an unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest. But he is not finding any other place he can rest. So the evil spirit returns to the body he was cast out of and finds it clean and, look at this – empty! There is a scriptural principle involved in this verse. The devil is going to try and get back in again if he can. Even in the case of sickness and disease. That is one reason many people are healed – sometimes a miracle healing – and then relapse the same day or a few days later. Because the devil has been cast out and can't find anywhere else to move into. So he returns to see if he can weasel his way back into the persons body. He will cause some symptom to pop up and see if the person will say something like, “Well, I guess I didn't get my healing after all. That problem is still here.” You have to stand your ground against him with the Word. YOU will be responsible for it. Not your preacher, not your wife, not your husband, not your momma or daddy. YOU. Period. Now, if you have young child, YES, as a parent, YOU can take a stand against it. I'm talking here mainly about people who should know better – but don't. Amen. The reason I keep harping on this aspect of prayer is because there are no new tricks the devil has come up with. He is still using the same tactics he was using in Jesus day and before that. Amen. These are fundamental spiritual truths you must learn how to operate by. Day in and day out. Our own wrong thinking defeats ourselves most of the time. The devil doesn't defeat us – we defeat ourselves. That is why it is so important for people to be taught the Word of God and learn how to pray for themselves and stand in faith themselves.

Tune in for our first Haunted Picture Palace episode where we take a film-fan deep-dive look at the themes, dreams and Satanic schemes in Rosemary's Baby.
Like the rest of the country, All Ears is reeling from the disturbing events this week at the Capitol Building, so we decided to switch gears away from our planned programming to talk about the impact of this seemingly inevitable burst of political violence. Looking for some perspective from outside U.S. borders, Abby calls her good friend, 2011 Nobel Peace Laureate Leymah Gbowee, who lived through civil and military insurrection in her native Liberia and as an ordinary social worker and grass roots organizer helped to lead her country out of a very dark era. Leymah’s perceptive commentary on the race and gender dynamics at play this week in Washington offers insight into the ways men, white people, and people in power shield themselves from moral responsibility and solution building. Abby and Leymah also talk about the ways women can both perpetuate and break apart conservative coalitions. Leymah insists that faith in the goodness of all people is a necessary ballast to her work as a peace builder, and as someone who has lived through the brutal undoing of a Democracy, her words have resonance for Abby. We hope you find inspiration in Leymah’s words as well.

I was never really a fighter when I was in elementary school but occasionally I got into a few fist fights with some other kids that tried to bully me around. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a big brother that could come and help defend me. But that’s not the case as Christians. When the devil comes and tries to mess with us, we can fight back against him. We do this in prayer using the Word of God. We see Jesus giving us an example on how to do this when He was tempted by the devil in Matthew 4. God has your back in the fight when you use His word. So let’s learn how to punch the devil back in this episode. You can click here for this episode notes and Customized Prayer Plan. You can donate to the podcast through Patreon by clicking here.

On today’s episode of Rewrite Radio: working in the television and movie industry, Abigail Disney and Dorothy Fortenberry are involved in making some of the most significant media today. In this wide-ranging conversation with Jennifer Holberg, co-director of the CCFW, they discuss the ethical imperatives that shape--and should shape--the stories we tell on-screen. Abigail Disney is an award-winning filmmaker, philanthropist, and the CEO and president of Fork Films, which has supported more than 50 films and series that focus on social issues. Disney received her bachelor’s degree from Yale, her master’s from Stanford, and her doctorate from Columbia. An active supporter of peacebuilding, Disney is passionate about advancing women’s roles in the public sphere. In fact, in 2008 she turned to documentaries--inspired by the story of a group of women who used nonviolence to bring an end to Liberia’s long civil war--with the film Pray the Devil Back to Hell, named best documentary at the Tribeca Film Festival. Disney’s directorial debut, The Armor of Light, premiered at the 2015 Tribeca Film Festival. Dorothy Fortenberry is a producer and writer on Hulu’s Emmy Award-winning series The Handmaid’s Tale. Prior to that, she spent three years on the writing staff for the CW series The 100. In 2017, IAMA Theatre Company produced the world premiere production of Fortenberry's play Species Native to California, a modern re-telling of The Cherry Orchard. Her play Partners had its world premiere at the Humana Festival of New American Plays at the Actors Theatre of Louisville. Fortenberry's essays on subjects including faith, fear, and the politics of country music have appeared in The Los Angeles Review of Books, Real Simple, and Pacific Standard. Dorothy is a recipient of the Helen Merrill Award for Emerging Playwrights, and she has an MFA in playwriting from the Yale School of Drama. You can find more information about the Center and its signature event, the Festival of Faith and Writing, online at ccfw.calvin.edu and festival.calvin.edu and on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

On Assignment's season two premiere is the first episode in a series called, Women We Love. These episodes will feature great conversations with women who are out in the field setting an example for our students with their outstanding reporting. All have a special connection to our Columbia J-School Prizes Department. Our first episode features filmmaker Kirsten Johnson, whose film Cameraperson, was the final screening at the duPont sponsored film series Film Fridays last spring. She has worked as the principal cinematographer on over 40 feature-length documentaries. Some of her credits include award-winning pieces like “The Invisible War,” “Pray the Devil Back to Hell,” “Fahrenheit 9/11” and “Women, War and Peace.” Kirsten has a longstanding collaboration with Oscar-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras and is credited as cinematographer for “The Oath,” “Citizenfour,” and the upcoming "Asylum." Her directorial debut, Cameraperson, is a deeply personal and autobiographical film that Kirsten calls, “an acknowledgement of how complex it is to film and be filmed.” It was an official selection for the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. Cameraperson opens at the IFC Center in New York City on September 9th.

Abigail E. Disney joins us to talk about the initiative: Women, War & Peace and her films, "Pray the Devil Back to Hell" and "Peace Unveiled" (2nd & 3rd films in the series). Women, War & Peace, a bold new five-part PBS mini-series, is the most comprehensive global media initiative ever mounted on the roles of women in peace and conflict. Women, War & Peace will broadcast on five consecutive Tuesday evenings: October 11, 18, and 25 and November 1 and 8, 2011 (check local listings). "Peace Unveiled, Disney," Gini Reticker, & Claudia Rizzi: When the U.S. troop surge was announced in late 2009, women in Afghanistan knew that the ground was being laid for peace talks with the Taliban. Peace Unveiled follows three women in Afghanistan who are risking their lives to make sure that women have a seat at the negotiating table.
