Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with historian Peniel E. Joseph about his latest book, Freedom Season: How 1963 Transformed America's Civil Rights Revolution.Joseph's storytelling prowess brings James Baldwin, Martin Luther King Jn., President Kennedy, and Boobie Kennedy to vibrant life, not as static icons but as complex humans navigating treacherous terrain. Particularly fascinating is Joseph's exploration of the forgotten women who shaped the movement—Gloria Richardson, Lorraine Hansberry, Diane Nash—who confronted both racial oppression and patriarchal limitations within activist circles. Their stories provide crucial context for understanding today's intersectional movements.What resonates most powerfully throughout our conversation is how the struggles of 1963 remain eerily familiar six decades later. As we witness contemporary battles over voting rights and historical memory, Joseph reminds us that reconciliation can only emerge through confronting difficult truths about our past, a lesson America is still struggling to learn.Peniel E.

Vivian's Memoir.Reverend Vivian was a Major Force in the Fight for Civil Rights & Voters Rights in the Twentieth Century till he Passed July 17th, 2020.Regardless of Social Status, Party Affiliation or Belief, Race: Libertarian, Democrat, Progressive or Republican or Other, All Americans Should Have the Right to Vote!Senator Barack Obama, speaking at Selma's Brown Chapel on the March 2007, anniversary of the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches, recognized Vivian in his opening remarks in the words of Martin L. King Jr. as "the greatest preacher to ever live."Studying for the ministry at American Baptist Theological Seminary (now called American Baptist College) in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1959, Vivian met James Lawson, who was teaching Mohandas Gandhi's nonviolent direct action strategy to the Nashville Student Movement.

"You can turn your back now and you can keep the club in your hand, but you cannot beat down justice. And we will register to vote, because as citizens of these United States we have the right to do it."Vivian conceived and directed an educational program, Vision, and put 702 Alabama students in college with scholarships (this program later became Upward Bound).

Today, many Catholics feel a sense of urgency or even dread as they look upon the dark forces and ideologies that besiege the world, the Church, and the truth. Some people may even ask, “What can I do in the face of these forces and against so many injustices?” In their recent work, Catholic Heroes of Civil and Human Rights, Matthew Daniels and Roxanne King provide many heroic examples of everyday Catholics who stood as lights for the rights and dignity of others. This book provides sixteen short but thorough biographies of Catholics whose faith inspired and motivated others to work for social justice and the salvation of all people. In this episode, Matthew Daniels and Andrew Petiprin discuss how Catholics like Blessed Franz Jägerstätter, Venerable Father Agustus Tolton, Sr. Thea Bowman, and Diane Nash can serve as role models for Catholics today. While many of these Catholic heroes may be unfamiliar to many, their work is nonetheless crucial and the impact of their work and faith is beyond measure.

Follow us and catch the vibes on tigress315radio.com or various music streams. Let's honor the legacy together!" Diane Nash She led the Nashville Sit-in Movement, which preceded the founding of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and coordinated the Birmingham, Alabama to Jackson, Mississippi Freedom Ride after the Congress on Racial Equality (CORE) was forced to discontinue it. Her tactical and unwavering support of the Freedom Riders was critical to their success throughout the South. In 1962, Martin Luther King, Jr., nominated her for an award from the NAACP's New York branch, acknowledging her as the “driving spirit in the nonviolent assault on segregation at lunch counters.” After her work with the Freedom Riders, she returned to her hometown of Chicago and became an advocate for fair housing.

In 1961, an multiracial group of intrepid "Freedom Riders" attempted to desegregate bus stations in some of the most militantly segregationist parts of the Deep South. These courageous civil rights activists, including John Lewis, Diane Nash, Jim Zwerg, and James Peck, encountered shocking violence in the State of Alabama. A bus they were taking was burned down, and several Riders were bloodied & beaten by organized vigilantes who opposed racial integration. Once photographic images & film footage of this brutality received international media coverage, the Kennedy Administration finally intervened to force desegregation of interstate travel facilities. Southern politicians then attempted to get revenge by tricking busloads of impoverished African-American Southerners to head north in the so-called "Reverse Freedom Rides." Meanwhile, Cold War tensions continued to heat up, as the Vienna Summit between John F. Kennedy & Nikita Khrushchev failed to reach a solution to the Berlin crisis, leading the Communists to construct the Berlin Wall to keep East Germans from moving into the capitalist West. Decolonization continued to free global populations from European imperialism, including a violent struggle that gained Algerian independence from France. Some new nations sought neutral non-alignment, while others allied with the Communist bloc. JFK tried to keep these new Third World nations from siding with the Soviets via aid programs such as Food for Peace, the Peace Corps, and the Alliance for Progress in Latin America. However, there was a more coercive side to these US Cold War efforts, as the Kennedy Administration also funded CIA interference into foreign politics, anti-Communist military buildups in Latin nations, and an escalation of US military commitment in South Vietnam. The year closed on an ominous note as both the USA & the USSR began escalating defense spending and nuclear testing.Support the show

Waging a Good War: A Military History of the Civil Rights Movement, 1954-1968 by Thomas E. Ricks #1 New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas E. Ricks offers a new take on the Civil Rights Movement, stressing its unexpected use of military strategy and its lessons for nonviolent resistance around the world. In Waging a Good War, bestselling author Thomas E. Ricks offers a fresh perspective on America's greatest moral revolution―the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s―and its legacy today. While the Movement has become synonymous with Martin Luther King Jr.'s ethos of nonviolence, Ricks, a Pulitzer Prize–winning war reporter, draws on his deep knowledge of tactics and strategy to note the surprising affinities between that ethos and the organized pursuit of success at war. The greatest victories for Black Americans of the past century, he stresses, were won not by idealism alone, but by paying attention to recruiting, training, discipline, and organization―the hallmarks of any successful military campaign. An engaging storyteller, Ricks deftly narrates the movement's triumphs and defeats. He follows King and other key figures from Montgomery to Memphis, demonstrating that Gandhian nonviolence was a philosophy of active, not passive, resistance – involving the bold and sustained confrontation of the Movement's adversaries, both on the ground and in the court of public opinion. While bringing legends such as Fannie Lou Hamer and John Lewis into new focus, Ricks also highlights lesser-known figures who played critical roles in fashioning nonviolence into an effective tool―the activists James Lawson, James Bevel, Diane Nash, and Septima Clark foremost among them. He also offers a new understanding of the Movement's later difficulties as internal disputes and white backlash intensified. Rich with fresh interpretations of familiar events and overlooked aspects of America's civil rights struggle, Waging a Good War is an indispensable addition to the literature of racial justice and social change―and one that offers vital lessons for our own time.

Chapter Eleven: Baptism on Wheels This is a sad and violent chapter, and exhibits both the best and worst of humanity. A chapter without King, but about SNCC activists and the Freedom Rides in May of 1961. Tidbits we learn in this chapter: Who used the excuse that he had to help a friend move furniture and avoid a major civil rights action (Freedom Ride)! What city has the worst hospital in the world at this time! Was there a conspiracy by a local government, Ku Klux Klan, to beat civil rights activists for 15 minutes. What does Japan think of white supremacy violence? What minor character could I see myself being. All that and more, and shout outs too John Seignthaler, James Farmer, James Bevel, John Lewis, Albert Bigelow, Simeon Booker, James Peck, Genevieve Hughes, Herbert Harris, Selyn McCollum, Susan Wilbur, Sue Harmon, Jim Zerg and and all the Freedom Riders and of course Diane Nash!

Kwame Ture born Stokely Carmichael; June 29, 1941, was a prominent organizer in the civil rights movement in the United States and the global Pan-African movement. Born in Trinidad, he grew up in the United States from the age of 11 and became an activist while attending the Bronx High School of Science. He was a key leader in the development of the Black Power movement, first while leading the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), then as the "Honorary Prime Minister" of the Black Panther Party (BPP), and last as a leader of the All-African People's Revolutionary Party (A-APRP). Carmichael was one of the original SNCC freedom riders of 1961 under Diane Nash's leadership. He became a major voting rights activist in Mississippi and Alabama after being mentored by Ella Baker and Bob Moses. Like most young people in the SNCC, he became disillusioned with the two-party system after the 1964 Democratic National Convention failed to recognize the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party as official delegates from the state. Carmichael eventually decided to develop independent all-black political organizations, such as the Lowndes County Freedom Organization and, for a time, the national Black Panther Party. Inspired by Malcolm X's example, he articulated a philosophy of Black Power, and popularized it both by provocative speeches and more sober writings. Carmichael became one of the most popular and controversial Black leaders of the late 1960s. J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI, secretly identified Carmichael as the man most likely to succeed Malcolm X as America's "black messiah”. The FBI targeted him for personal destruction through its COINTELPRO program, so Carmichael moved to Africa in 1968. He reestablished himself in Ghana, and then Guinea by 1969. There he adopted the name Kwame Ture, and began campaigning internationally for revolutionary socialist Pan-Africanism. Ture died of prostate cancer in 1998 at the age of 57. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/unlabeled/support

We continue reading Henry Winston's Strategy for a Black Agenda. We also discuss where we are in the organization of the conference "Strategy for Black Freedom: The Life and Thought of Henry Winston”. Following, we listen to and discuss a recent interview with the civil rights leader Diane Nash.
Joan Trumpauer Mulholland, a recipient of the 2015 National Civil Rights Museum Freedom Award, is a Civil Rights Icon who participated in over 50 sit-ins and demonstrations by the time she was 23 years old. She was a Freedom Rider, a participant in the Jackson Woolworth's Sit-in, the March on Washington, the Meredith March and the Selma to Montgomery March. For her actions she was disowned by her family, attacked, shot at, cursed at, put on death row and hunted down by the Klan for execution. Her path has crossed with some of the biggest names in the Civil Rights Movement: Martin Luther King, Medgar Evers, Fannie Lou Hamer, John Lewis, Diane Nash and Julian Bond. She has appeared in numerous books and documentaries and has received numerous awards and recognition for her work in the Civil Rights Movement including the 2019 International Civil Rights Museum Trailblazer Award, the 2018 “I Am a Man” Award, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated Annual Award of Honor and the Anti-Defamation League Annual Heroes Against Hate Award.https://www.amazon.com/Ordinary-Hero-Luvaughn-Brown/dp/B06Y4F88XQ/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=joan+mulholland&qid=1630412568&sr=8-3
“Freedom, by definition, is people realizing that they are their own leaders.”- Diane Nash On this special episode, we're walking and talking with Diane Nash, one of the most influential activists of any generation - co-founder of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and organizer of the Freedom Rides. This historic conversation commences on the Blackest day of the year - Saturday, August 28th. This day marks the anniversary of the abolishment of slavery in the UK, the murder of Emmitt Till, the March on Washington, the Presidential nomination of Barack Obama, and the day that our beloved Black Panther, Chadwick Boseman departed this earth. We mark this day because we do not believe in coincidences or happenstance, but in sacred forces and synchronicity, in supreme math and divine signs, and as a movement we join arm in arm with revolutionaries from around the world who stop each year in August to pay homage to the countless organizers and activists who sacrificed their freedom and lives in the struggle for Black liberation.This is an opportunity for the whole family to gather and experience living history, to walk real-time in the footsteps of a Civil Rights legacy, and to celebrate the Black women who paved the way and continue to do the work. We who believe in freedom cannot rest. Disclaimer: We do not own the rights to the music or speech excepts played during this broadcast.

Throughout history, women have been forgotten, taken for granted, and seen as objects to be used rather than humans with opinions to be heard. Now, with the election just a few days ahead, it is important to recognize that it will be the female vote that will evolve our country. Dr. Venus walks it back slowly this week to provide resources and a timeline on how Black Men got the chance to vote before White Women. She then discusses the importance of Democracy, and why Black Men supporting Trump falls in line with voting in the name of individualism rather than for the good of the collective. In this political climate, everyone has skin in the game, something to lose, and each side can affect the other drastically. It's our job to make the right decisions for our happiness. Key Takeaways: [2:05] In 1870, Black Men received the right to vote, but it is important to note that they received this right based on gender. It was not until the 19th Amendment that women received the right to vote. White Men gave Black Men the right to vote, but it was still indoctrinated in the system of White Supremacy, rooted in the patriarchal ideas that men are smarter and know better than women. [4:05] It looked as though Black Men were included in the right to vote fully, but there were many structures that kept them from doing so, such as taxes, literacy tests, and lynchings. [7:06] When Black Men support Trump, Dr. Venus believes they are identifying with his fundamental beliefs of looking out for yourself, doing what suits you best, and treating women as second class citizens. There is a riff in the Black community that is gender-based and rooted in feeding the beast of White Supremacy and White Masculinity. [15:39] No matter who you vote for, it is important that you educate yourself on why you are voting for them, and how they align with your values. [23:42] This current political climate has turned many people against each other, where true Democracy is letting each other have different opinions and exercising the right to vote based on how a candidate matches up with your values and priorities. We don’t have to agree with what others are saying, but it’s important that everyone has a voice. [33:31] Patriarchy and bigotry are still very alive these days, but that does not discredit the power of our voice. We can choose to vote and exercise our right to Democracy from a place of power rather than reaction. Quotes: “You have to look at the values of the people you are aligning with. That includes your candidate.” “As women of all races, we identify with other women. If my sister hurts whether I have money or not and she is in need of welfare, we identify as though that could be us.” “I have a high value of women of all races having control over their body.” “I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.” — Voltaire “If you want your children to thrive and understand that their voice matters, you have to act it out first.” Mentioned: Dr. Venus Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram “Hot Mess Millionaire” Amazon Pilot ”Hot Mess Millionaire” Complete Series (https://www.youtube.com/c/DrVenusOpalReese) Join the conversation! Hot Mess Millionaire Facebook Group Free Gift When You Join The Truth Tribe The Black Woman Millionaire Hot Mess Edition Register to Vote Online *****VOTING RIGHTS BY STATE: For Convicted Felons RESOURCES When Did African Americans Actually Get The Right To Vote The 19th Amendment didn’t give women the right to vote Its language — and effects — were much narrower. Suffrage in America: The 15th and 19th Amendments 'It's a Struggle They Will Wage Alone.' How Black Women Won the Right to Vote The gender gap in black views on Trump, explained 24 percent of black men approve of Trump. Just 6 percent of black women do. Why? IMPORTANT DATES In 1868, the Fourteenth Amendment granted citizenship to everyone born or naturalized in the United States. Citizenship gives people privileges, immunities, equal protection, and due process of law in theory but not in practice. https://www.nps.gov/articles/whose-voice-is-heard.htm The Fifteenth Amendment of 1870 said that the government cannot keep a citizen from voting based on his "race, color, or previous condition of servitude". The purpose of this amendment was to enfranchise African American men but it was undermined with death threats, Black Codes, and other forms of terror to deter voting. https://www.nps.gov/articles/whose-voice-is-heard.htm It was not until 1920, when the Nineteenth Amendment forbid the denial of voting rights on the basis of sex, that women had the right to vote but there were loopholes around enforcing this amendment. The same tactics used on Black Men. https://www.nps.gov/articles/whose-voice-is-heard.htm Activism for women’s voting rights did not end in 1920, and the advocacy of women of color like Fannie Lou Hamer and Diane Nash helped lead to perhaps the biggest voting rights victory of all, the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
This week we discuss two women fighting for change in their communities - albeit in very different ways. Michael discusses Diane Nash, a leader of the Civil Rights movement committed to non-violence, and Katie introduces us to Queen Nanny, a leader of the Jamaican maroon community who waged a guerilla war against the British. We also talk about Q Anon, voting, and the importance of political engagement. Note: Because 2020 has been *gestures wildly at everything going on* we will be releasing our next few episodes out of order. This episode was originally intended to be the third in a series examining women from Kamala Harris' DNC acceptance speech. We hope to release parts one and two of that series soon. (Also, Michael references previous conversations about the show Black Sails - which are on episodes we recorded this summer but haven't been able to release yet. You're not missing any crucial context, but he would recommend you go watch the show. You can skip most of the first season.)

This is part two of a two part series.On May 4, 1961, a group of 13 African-American and white civil rights activists launched the Freedom Rides, a series of bus trips through the American South to protest segregation in interstate bus terminals. The Freedom Riders, who were recruited by the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), a U.S. civil rights group, departed from Washington, D.C., and attempted to integrate facilities at bus terminals along the way into the Deep South. African-American Freedom Riders tried to use “whites-only” restrooms and lunch counters, and vice versa. The group encountered tremendous violence from white protestors along the route, but also drew international attention to their cause. Over the next few months, several hundred Freedom Riders engaged in similar actions. In September 1961, the Interstate Commerce Commission issued regulations prohibiting segregation in bus and train stations nationwide.Our GuestDr. David Fankhauser, 73, a professor at the University of Cincinnati, the Clermont Branch, was part of the second wave of mostly college students who traveled south as a Freedom Rider. He was a student at Central State College in Wilberforce, Ohio, an historically black college. He and another white Central State student flew on May 24, 1961, answering the call from revered student organizer Diane Nash for fresh troops, to Montgomery Alabama, and stayed at Rev. Ralph Abernathy's home where they and other Riders strategized for several days with him, MLK and Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth. They decided that now the Riders must be willing to fill up southern jails for the maximum stay of 40 days before bailing out. David was arrested in Jackson, Mississippi, for sitting in a “colored” waiting room while riding a Trailways bus bound for New Orleans. He spent the next 42 days first in the Jackson City Jail and later the notorious Mississippi Parchman Penitentiary, 140 miles from Jackson in the Mississippi Delta.The Freedom Riders in his cell block, including now Congressman John Lewis, hunger struck for nearly two weeks and sung freedom songs incessantly to hold their spirits, and the guards retaliated by leaving them only their underwear and taking their toothbrushes, mattresses, even the screens from the windows. When released on July 9, David rode a train back to Cincinnati's Union Terminal where he was hoisted on the shoulders of local civil rights activists and carried through the building in a hero's welcome.

Today on Sojourner Truth: On Thursday, July 30, the world bid farewell to Congressman John Lewis during his funeral at the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia. Congressman Lewis, an icon of the civil rights movement, passed away on Friday, July 17, at the age of 80 following a six-month battle with pancreatic cancer. He died on the same day as C.T. Vivian, another civil rights movement icon. At Congressman Lewis funeral, three former U.S. presidents and dozens of other high-profile guests came out to pay their respects. Among them were former presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. During Obama's fiery speech, he called on all people to uphold the legacy of Congressman Lewis and continue to campaign against racism, police brutality and voter suppression. Bush's speech praised Congressman Lewis faith and his contributions to the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Professor and civil rights activist Rev. James Lawson also delivered a speech at Congressman Lewis funeral. Rev. Lawson was a leading theoretician and tactician of non-violence within the civil rights movement. He conducted nonviolence training workshops for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and mentored a number of young students at Vanderbilt, Fisk University, and other area schools in the tactics of non-violent direct action. In Nashville, Tennessee, he trained many of the future leaders of the civil rights movement, among them John Lewis, Diane Nash, James Bevel, Bernard Lafayette, and others. Today, we will hear the speech Rev. Lawson delivered at Congressman Lewis memorial. Bill Clinton in his speech raised some eyebrows when he made a not so veiled criticism of Stokely Carmichael's influence and leadership of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, known as SNCC. Both Congressman Lewis and Stokely Carmichael, who later changed his name to Kwame Ture, were involved with SNCC. With roots in 1960 from the student-led sit-ins at segregated lunch counters in Greensboro, North Carolina and Nashville, Tennessee, SNCC worked to coordinate and assist direct-action challenges to segregationist policies and the political exclusion of Black people. In 1966, Kwame was chosen to replace Congress Lewis as chairman of SNCC. At the time, he was also working alongside the Black Panther Party. Commenting on Kwame replacing Congressman Lewis, Clinton said: There were two or three years there where the movement went a little bit too far toward Stokely, but in the end, John Lewis prevailed. Clinton's remarks have drawn criticism from some who saw it as divisive and unsolicited. Dr. Peniel E. Joseph is our guest.

He conducted nonviolence training workshops for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and mentored a number of young students at Vanderbilt, Fisk University, and other area schools in the tactics of non-violent direct action. In Nashville, Tennessee, he trained many of the future leaders of the civil rights movement, among them John Lewis, Diane Nash, James Bevel, Bernard Lafayette, and others. Today, we will hear the speech Rev. Lawson delivered at Congressman Lewis memorial. Bill Clinton in his speech raised some eyebrows when he made a not so veiled criticism of Stokely Carmichael's influence and leadership of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, known as SNCC. Both Congressman Lewis and Stokely Carmichael, who later changed his name to Kwame Ture, were involved with SNCC. With roots in 1960 from the student-led sit-ins at segregated lunch counters in Greensboro, North Carolina and Nashville, Tennessee, SNCC worked to coordinate and assist direct-action challenges to segregationist policies and the political exclusion of Black people. In 1966, Kwame was chosen to replace Congress Lewis as chairman of SNCC. At the time, he was also working alongside the Black Panther Party. Commenting on Kwame replacing Congressman Lewis, Clinton said: There were two or three years there where the movement went a little bit too far toward Stokely, but in the end, John Lewis prevailed. Clinton's remarks have drawn criticism from some who saw it as divisive and unsolicited. Dr. Peniel E. Joseph is our guest.
Today on Sojourner Truth: On Thursday, July 30, the world bid farewell to Congressman John Lewis during his funeral at the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia. Congressman Lewis, an icon of the civil rights movement, passed away on Friday, July 17, at the age of 80 following a six-month battle with pancreatic cancer. He died on the same day as C.T. Vivian, another civil rights movement icon. At Congressman Lewis funeral, three former U.S. presidents and dozens of other high-profile guests came out to pay their respects. Among them were former presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. During Obama's fiery speech, he called on all people to uphold the legacy of Congressman Lewis and continue to campaign against racism, police brutality and voter suppression.

the Freedom Riders - Part One of TwoOn May 4, 1961, a group of 13 African-American and white civil rights activists launched the Freedom Rides, a series of bus trips through the American South to protest segregation in interstate bus terminals. The Freedom Riders, who were recruited by the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), a U.S. civil rights group, departed from Washington, D.C., and attempted to integrate facilities at bus terminals along the way into the Deep South. African-American Freedom Riders tried to use “whites-only” restrooms and lunch counters, and vice versa. The group encountered tremendous violence from white protestors along the route, but also drew international attention to their cause. Over the next few months, several hundred Freedom Riders engaged in similar actions. In September 1961, the Interstate Commerce Commission issued regulations prohibiting segregation in bus and train stations nationwide.Our GuestDr. David Fankhauser, 73, a professor at the University of Cincinnati, the Clermont Branch, was part of the second wave of mostly college students who traveled south as a Freedom Rider. He was a student at Central State College in Wilberforce, Ohio, an historically black college. He and another white Central State student flew on May 24, 1961, answering the call from revered student organizer Diane Nash for fresh troops, to Montgomery Alabama, and stayed at Rev. Ralph Abernathy's home where they and other Riders strategized for several days with him, MLK and Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth. They decided that now the Riders must be willing to fill up southern jails for the maximum stay of 40 days before bailing out. David was arrested in Jackson, Mississippi, for sitting in a “colored” waiting room while riding a Trailways bus bound for New Orleans. He spent the next 42 days first in the Jackson City Jail and later the notorious Mississippi Parchman Penitentiary, 140 miles from Jackson in the Mississippi Delta.The Freedom Riders in his cell block, including just deceased Congressman John Lewis, hunger struck for nearly two weeks and sang freedom songs incessantly to hold their spirits, and the guards retaliated by leaving them only their underwear and taking their toothbrushes, mattresses, even the screens from the windows. When released on July 9, David rode a train back to Cincinnati's Union Terminal where he was hoisted on the shoulders of local civil rights activists and carried through the building in a hero's welcome.

A great chat with Dr Hisham talking about the different viewpoints on oral health. The main concepts were breaking down misconceptions which we have been told for years by health practitioners and dentists. One thing I liked about this interview was Dr Hisham really does explain full details on the biology and science so you're not left guessing. He is a true biohacker by definition with creating his own oral care system too. He founded the Laser LifeCARE Institute in Auckland in 2005, as the world's first guestcare high-tech dental institute and a Bioenergetics Laser & Light Therapy Spa for Human Enhancement, Anti-aging and Mitochondrial disease prevention. With the intent of helping people overcome chronic inflammation, pain and degenerative disease risks. Dr Hisham was invited by President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama in May 2015 as a special guest to the White House, after a private dinner at Capitol Hill the night before. Later he was dining at The Smithsonian with Martin L. King's last living lieutenant & Freedom activist; Ms. Diane Nash - after her being awarded The Lincoln Medal of Freedom during Abraham Lincoln's 150th commemoration Ceremony at the Ford's Theatre Gala in Washington.

Everyone's heard of Martin Luther King Jr. But do you know the woman Dr. King called "the architect of the civil rights movement," Septima Clark? The teacher of some of the generation's most legendary activists -- like Rosa Parks, Diane Nash, Fannie Lou Hamer and thousands more -- Clark laid out a blueprint for change-making that has stood the test of time. Now T. Morgan Dixon and Vanessa Garrison, the cofounders of GirlTrek, are taking a page from Clark's playbook to launch a health revolution in the US -- and get one million women walking for justice.

Fit For A King summit featuring Diane Nash, This Thursday, January 17th, 2019
John Lewis, original 1960's Freedom Rider and now Congressman, tells his story about growing up as an African-American boy in the south and how he became a civil rights activist under the tutelage of Dr. Martin Luther King. He encourages us to stand up for justice and get into "the good kind of trouble" when necessary. Then Erin shares her humbling conversation with the courageous Jim Zwerg, a white male Freedom Rider who protested segregation in the south alongside his friend John Lewis and several other key players of the civil rights movement such as Bernard Lafayette, Jim Bevel, and Diane Nash. Jim paints a vivid picture of the youth movement in Nashville in the early 1960s and then takes us to that fateful moment in Montgomery when he and John stepped off a bus and their lives were changed forever.

Maintenant T. Morgan Dixon et Vanessa Garrison, les cofondatrices de GirlTrek, s'inspirent de ses méthodes pour lancer une révolution de la santé aux États-Unis et faire marcher un million de femmes pour la justice.

Todo el mundo ha oído hablar de Martin Luther King Jr. Pero, ¿conocen a Septima Clark, la mujer a quien Dr.King llamó "la arquitecta del movimiento de los derechos civiles"? Profesora de algunas de las activistas más legendarias de nuestra generación, como Rosa Parks, Diane Nash, Fannie Lou Hamer y miles de ellas más, Clark trazó un plan para conseguir el cambio que ha perdurado en el tiempo.

Even in Pawnee, students are teaching adults lessons. In this solo episode we see Leslie and Ben fall completely apart while the Model U.N. students model more than global politics, and show the adults how to behave maturely. We enjoy Ron and Tom's interview process and (reluctantly) delve into Chris's love life again. We add Diane Nash, co-founder of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee and noted Civil Rights activist, to our Wall of Inspirational Women.
Ella Josephine Baker (December 13, 1903 – December 13, 1986) was an African-American civil rights and human rights activist. She was a largely behind-the-scenes organizer whose career spanned over five decades. She mentored many emerging activists such as Diane Nash, Stokely Carmichael, Rosa Parks, and Bob Moses. She was a critic of professionalized, charismatic leadership and a promoter of grassroots organizing and radical democracy. She has been called; "One of the most important African American leaders of the twentieth century and perhaps the most influential woman in the civil rights movement." We need a multipronged approach to activism. Listen to Ella Baker as she lays out strategies we need to use today. There is nothing new under the Sun! This is your grandmothers Civil Rights Movement, because the struggle continues! 661-467-2407 Friday Nite- 5PM PST or 8PM EST
The sermon was delivered on Sunday, July 12, 2015, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Barbara Prose, Executive Director of Ministry. SERMON DESCRIPTION She was a leader of the student movement for civil rights. She was willing to put her life on the line for justice. When directly challenged by the Kennedy administration to stop the Freedom Riders because she was “going to get somebody killed,” Nash replied, ‘You don’t understand–we signed our wills last night.” She survived the violence of the 60s and is still speaking prophetic words today, “I don’t think what needs to be done in this country is going to be done by elected officials. American citizens have to take the country into our own hands, the future of this country, and do what’s necessary.” As we work together to make our lives and the lives of all people more just and more joyful, join me to learn from a living prophet, a woman who knew her own power and used it for good.

The sermon was delivered on Sunday, July 5, 2015, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Barbara Prose, Executive Director of Ministry. SERMON DESCRIPTION Traditionally, prophets see and speak about a future we hardly dare to dream about. Through their sight, their words, and their actions, prophets promote change as they proclaim the possibility of a more just world. Our faith tradition looks to prophetic men and women through the ages as sources of wisdom and inspiration. This July 4th weekend, with a presidential election just sixteen months away, we will remember the prophetic women who fought for a future in which women–all women, white and black and brown women–would have the right to vote. Many states are passing new laws requiring voters to show identification cards, restricting early-voting hours, and prohibiting more and more of our poorest citizens and our citizens of color from voting. With this in mind, we will turn to the life of Diane Nash, civil rights activist and leader, prophet of equal rights, voting rights, and non-violence. When faced with serving time in jail while pregnant Nash said, “I believe that if I go to jail now, it may help hasten that day when my child and all children will be free — not only on the day of their birth but for all their lives.” SUBSCRIBE TO AUDIO PODCAST: VIEW ON YOUTUBE: SUBSCRIBE TO WATCH OTHER VIDEOS: GIVE A DONATION TO HELP US SPREAD THIS LOVE BEYOND BELIEF: LET'S CONNECT: Facebook: Twitter: All Souls Church Website:
