In the five-plus years of the podcast, I'd say that we have spent a LOT of time on various “hot button” issues - I mean, we live quite squarely in the ones that surround race and identity, wouldn't you say? - but one of the facets of identity that we don't often explore is that of religion. Not because we don't want to talk about it, but a lot of times the opportunity doesn't really present itself. That's why we were so excited to talk to one of the authors of Healing Our Way Home, a new book that addresses white supremacy and identity through the lens of Black Buddhist teachings.  What started out as a series of conversations between three practitioners morphed into a whole book, focusing on self-care and Buddhist teachings with the goal of collective liberation in mind, but in a way that's totally different than what we've seen out there thus far.  Can't wait for you all to listen and learn more.   What to listen for: A brief explanation of the Buddhist history and teachings What it was like knowing Zen Master Thich Nhat Han Three powerful questions we should all be asking ourselves, as we work to remain centered in our own selves while experiencing the world in its current poly-crisis state. About the authors:    KAIRA JEWEL LINGO is a Dharma teacher with a lifelong interest in spirituality and social justice. Her work continues the Engaged Buddhism developed by Thich Nhat Hanh, and she draws inspiration from her parents' lives of service and her dad's work with Martin Luther King, Jr. After living as an ordained nun for 15 years in Thich Nhat Hanh's monastic community, Kaira Jewel now teaches internationally in the Zen lineage and the Vipassana tradition, as well as in secular mindfulness, at the intersection of racial, climate and social justice with a focus on activists, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, artists, educators, families, and youth. Based in New York, she offers spiritual mentoring to groups and is the author of We Were Made for These Times: Ten Lessons in Moving through Change, Loss and Disruption and co-author of the forthcoming, Healing Our Way Home: Black Buddhist Teachings on Ancestors, Joy and Liberation (Feb 2024) from Parallax Press.

She transformed her twenty-year, high-pressure career as a lawyer-lobbyist into human-scale, social-equity-centered work, guiding leaders and organizations to foster greater understanding, authenticity, compassion, and trust.   MARISELA B. GOMEZ is a co-founder of Village of Love and Resistance in Baltimore Maryland, organizing for power, healing, and the reclamation of land. She is a meditation and Buddhist teacher, physician-scientist, and holistic health practitioner.

One week has gone by since a massive container ship struck a critical support column of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, sending the structure and a group of construction workers who were fixing potholes on the bridge into the water of the Patapsco River. Of the 8 men who were working on the bridge that night, six have been pronounced dead since last Tuesday. As more details have emerged about the accident, and the city and port authority's plans for clean-up and reconstruction, The Real News convened a panel of journalists working all sides of this story to get a sense of what we know, what key questions still need to be answered, and what happens next.Joining this timely discussion are Marc Steiner, host of the Marc Steiner Show on The Real News Network; Real News Network Editor-in-Chief Max Alvarez; Dharna Noor, who leads "Big Oil Uncovered," a Guardian series focused on the fossil fuel industry's attempts to thwart climate science, discourse, and policy; and Clara Longo de Freitas, a neighborhood reporter covering East Baltimore communities for the Baltimore Banner.Studio Production: Adam ColeyPost-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.

The 15 members of the Baltimore City Council do not elect the council's leader from among themselves like most legislative bodies. Instead, city directly elect the president of the City Council. Several candidates are vying for the role in the 2024 election. In the Democratic primary, where the winner is almost assured of winning the seat, incumbent Council President Nick Mosby faces two formidable challenges; Shannon Sneed, who represented East Baltimore on the council from 2016 to 2020, and Zeke Cohen, who has represented Southeast Baltimore's 1st District since 2016. During his time on the council, Cohen pushed for trauma-informed care and tighter rules on lobbying in the city. Now is running for Council president. What are his priorities, if elected?

Sunday MemoirsBlack SolutionistsPart 3-Final Episode  Reginald F. Lewis First Black BillionaireSunday Memoirs  takes a look back in the past to find inspiration for the future. We will take time to share great inspiring accounts and building moments of the Black Church and others, depicting religious traditions and spiritual awakenings that contributed to the foundation of the church and our faith today.  We will also explore great businessman and women of faith that contributed to the faith and made our communities better by pursuing their God-given purposes. At times we will share inspirational words to educate and encourage individuals on their journey of faith in God.We are introducing a series called "Black Solutionists", focusing on the individuals that took chances on pursuing their dreams and brought to our culture a wealth of knowledge and life lessons on success that made a difference in history and our world. We start our journey with Reginald F. Lewis, the first black billionaire (3 part)."The dream is free, but the hustle is sold separately." (Reginald F. Lewis) Reginald F. Lewis was born on December 7, 1942 in an East Baltimore neighborhood he once described as “semi-tough.” Lewis was strongly influenced by his family. His parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts always encouraged Lewis to “be the best that you can be.” Reginald's grandmother would teach him the importance of saving, even cutting and peeling strips from the bottom of a tin can and nailing it to the floor of a closet to protect his savings. At the age of ten, Lewis set up a delivery route to sell the Afro American newspaper. After building the business from ten customers to more than a hundred in two years, he sold the route at a profit.Reginald attended Dunbar High School, where he distinguished himself as an athlete on the playing field and a hard working student in the class room.

Sunday MemoirsBlack SolutionistsPart 2  Reginald F. Lewis First Black BillionaireSunday Memoirs  takes a look back in the past to find inspiration for the future. We will take time to share great inspiring accounts and building moments of the Black Church and others, depicting religious traditions and spiritual awakenings that contributed to the foundation of the church and our faith today.  We will also explore great businessman and women of faith that contributed to the faith and made our communities better by pursuing their God-given purposes. At times we will share inspirational words to educate and encourage individuals on their journey of faith in God. We are introducing a series called "Black Solutionists", focusing on the individuals that took chances on pursuing their dreams and brought to our culture a wealth of knowledge and life lessons on success that made a difference in history and our world. We start our journey with Reginald F. Lewis, the first black billionaire (3 part)."The dream is free, but the hustle is sold separately." (Reginald F. Lewis) Reginald F. Lewis was born on December 7, 1942 in an East Baltimore neighborhood he once described as “semi-tough.” Lewis was strongly influenced by his family. His parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts always encouraged Lewis to “be the best that you can be.” Reginald's grandmother would teach him the importance of saving, even cutting and peeling strips from the bottom of a tin can and nailing it to the floor of a closet to protect his savings. At the age of ten, Lewis set up a delivery route to sell the Afro American newspaper. After building the business from ten customers to more than a hundred in two years, he sold the route at a profit.Reginald attended Dunbar High School, where he distinguished himself as an athlete on the playing field and a hard working student in the class room.

For 60 years, the United States has been fighting poverty but the number of people in poverty has only increased. Why is this, and what can we do to finally make an impact? Co-founder of The Shared Humanity Project, Mark Bergel, is joining host Jamie Truman on this episode to answer these questions and more. He says that we've been addressing the poverty crisis all wrong, addressing the symptoms instead of the cause, exploiting those in poverty, and spending money on programs with no evidence that they'll be effective.Poverty has an impact on crime, education and more issues that affect our communities. In fact, 97% of people born into poverty in East Baltimore never get out of it, and poverty plays a role in three deaths per day.   In this episode, Mark shares the “truths of poverty” and The Shared Humanity Project's National Plan to End Poverty. You'll also learn how The Shared Humanity Project is amplifying the voices of those in poverty, becoming a resource of information, and aiming to make a difference in every local market. Tune in to find out how we as a society can merge compassion with action to alleviate poverty, and how to get involved with The Shared Humanity Project! Connect with The Shared Humanity Project:Website EmailLinkedIn Twitter Instagram Facebook Connect with Jamie at Truman Charities:FacebookInstagramLinkedInWebsiteYouTubeEmail: info@trumancharities.comThis episode was post produced by Podcast Boutique https://podcastboutique.com/

The poise and self-possession NPR's Mary Louise Kelly exudes as a cohost on All Things Considered is not always how she feels inside. In Kelly's new book, she shares a very personal tale; a chronicle of her struggle to find time for family and friends as her globetrotting career grasps for every minute. Her new book is ‘It Goes So Fast: The Year of No Do-Overs.' As her oldest son prepares for college after years of missed soccer practices and birthdays, Kelly realizes there won't always be a next time.Plus, a local mom and entrepreneur is helping parents to pursue their own business while raising their families.

Growing up in East Baltimore, Monkton resident Larry Dukes wanted nothing more than to be a professional athlete or sports play-by-play broadcaster.  Seeing violent collisions from field level during a stint as an intern for the Baltimore Colts made him reconsider his career aspirations. A brains over brawn mentality prevailed. .  Before computer science was even an established concentration, Larry found himself at the forefront of predictive analytics.  He soon found himself working for Baltimore Blue Cross Blue Shield and, later, traveling the world for Westinghouse as a systems engineer.  What sets Larry apart is his ability to use his expertise and experience to start his own companies. Presented with a great idea and sound business plan, he also has a knack for knowing when to invest in the expertise of others.  Great ideas still excite him. No wonder his wife says he's never met a deal he didn't like. Personal success aside, among Larry's most satisfying endeavors for the past 20 years has been his active involvement at John Carroll High School, in Bel Air. With Larry Grant, Larry also co-authored Lifting The Rocks, Finding the Gold: Mastering the Six Imperatives of World Class Receivables Management.  No longer pursing professional sports as a career, Larry and his family enjoy their horse farm in Monkton and he's even found time to pursue of play-by-play dreams by broadcasting local sports. This is Larry Duke's story and we're pleased to share it on Mainstreet.  Support the showPlease visit our sponsor.

When you think of the word “principle,” what comes to mind? Heisenberg's Uncertainty Princple? The Peter Principle? Bernoulli's Principle? Seymour Skinner? (Maybe not that last one, unless you're having these notes read to you and didn't see the spelling…) Well, for this week's episode of the Overlap Podcast, our boy Sid takes us on a deep dive of the newest principle sensation sweeping the nation with vital information for your everyday life - The Proximity Principle. Sid will take author Ken Coleman's self-coined Proximity Principle and its premise that in order to achieve goals in your career, you must surround yourself with the people who currently fill the roles to which you aspire. Or, to put it a different way from the Poet Laureate of East Baltimore, Proposition Joe from HBO's “The Wire” - “Wear the part, be the part mother…” Through the Proximity Principle, you set yourself up for better networking and mentorship opportunities that help you up the ladder, which then positions you to better help bring up the next generation to greatness. And in these notes, we will also debut our latest contest - the Keith Principle Conundrum. To win our mystery grand prize, come up with what “The Keith Principle” would address and attempt to explain. If you win, you'll get … The Mystery Box. Is it filled with doubloons? Pecans? Gwyneth Paltrow's severed head? Who knows? It's the Mystery Box… (trademark pending) Tune in to this week's episode to learn more details.

Growing up, Muggsy Bogues was always told he should do something else, anything besides basketball. He never acknowledged his many doubters except to prove them spectacularly wrong. Twenty years after receiving his first basketball as a toddler, he stood proud—at five-foot-three—as the starting point guard for the Charlotte Hornets in the NBA. From the East Baltimore playground courts where he earned his nickname by muggin' opponents for possession of the ball to Dunbar High School where he excelled alongside future NBA players, Bogues set the tone in his early years for the great heights he'd reach professionally. In Muggsy: My Life from a Kid in the Projects to the Godfather of Small Ball (Triumph, 2022), Bogues delves deep into his life and career, reflecting on legendary battles with Michael Jordan, John Stockton, and other generational stars of '80s and '90s hoops. He shares far-ranging anecdotes from playoff runs in Charlotte, filming Space Jam, and even watching a young Steph Curry grow up. Conversational and clear-sighted, this is a story of uncompromising vision and fleet-footed determination during a golden era for the NBA. Paul Knepper covered the Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book, The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All was published in 2020.
