The German Jewish immigration of the mid 19th century caused a demographic explosion of the American Jewish community from a mere 5,000 in 1830 to approximately 250,000 in 1880. Economic opportunity, the California Gold Rush and a general American migration to the frontiers of the west, led thousands of these immigrants to try their luck as peddlers and merchants in San Francisco and other mining towns in the Wild West.  When Levi Strauss arrived from Bavaria with his family in 1847 he initially settled in NY. The Gold Rush enticed him to open a branch of the family's dry goods business in San Francisco in 1854 where he serviced the mining community. Two decades later he began marketing Levi's pants, which were the world's first blue jeans with rivets to secure the pockets in the rough environment the miners operated in. Josephine Marcus was the daughter of German Jewish immigrants in NYC who migrated to California and later to Tombstone, Arizona where she married the legendary Wild West figure Wyatt Earp.    Sponsored by the OU's Teach Coalition, whose network of thousands of activists just like you, are urging you to go out and vote in the upcoming elections on November 8, 2022.

You've heard the call, “I'm not religious, but I am spiritual.” What does that even mean? And, why are so many people running from organized religion, but flocking to some amorphous and ambiguous claim to spirituality that often extends not further than a sense that you yearn for something more? And, is that okay? Or, are we leaving something behind? And, if so, what? Is it a part of ourselves? A sense of wholeness and belonging? How do we reclaim a feeling of connectedness and expansiveness and ease, without also surrendering to the strictures of organized religion that, too often, integrate tribalism, separateness and disconnection from our lived, modern experience?These are the questions we dive into with my guest today, Rabbi Rami Shapiro. Rabbi Rami is an award-winning author of over three dozen books on religion and spirituality, including his latest, Judaism Without Tribalism. In our conversation today, we explore why so many people are leaving organized religion, the distinction between religion and spirituality, the evolution of God and religion, and much more.You can find Rabbi Rami at: WebsiteIf you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversations we had with Rabbi Steve Leder about the role of faith and how to share our wisdom with future generations.Check out our offerings & partners: My New Book SparkedMy New Podcast SPARKEDVisit Our Sponsor Page For Great Resources & Discount CodesGoing West: Whether you're looking for a new true crime podcast that has minimal side-talk or one that focuses on the victim and their story, you have to check out Going West!

Going West, Aotearoa's oldest indy LitFest, used to be all about the bringing together of writers and readers in a room, even on a train, to chat about books. But that was then. After two disrupted years, Going West 2022 is embracing the new opportunities offered by going online. These include commissioning new work showcasing storytellers. The Festival is also about to launch two new art-house documentary shorts - one on the poet Nathan Joe and Kathleen Winter's film about the poet Freya Daly Sadgrove. Lynn Freeman chats with Kathleen and Nathan. First though, Going West's Director James Littlewood explains why - rather than relying on Zoom like some literary festivals - they've gone in a different direction:

"Little sisters can be a pain, but the big sister heroine worship can't be beat." --Allison M. Lee When my little sister Michelle was born, I was 5 1/2 years old and my mom told me how important I would be in her life. As the big sister, I was to teach her and guide her--like a second mom. Well, somewhere along the next few years, I heard that a child's personality was formed and solidified by their 5th birthday. As she reached that milestone, I remember feeling sad and guilty that I had really screwed up this poor kid!!! Now looking at our lives together, it doesn't seem like I messed up as bad as I feared. She not only considered me a great big sister, I recognize that she is pretty awesome too!

In 2019, a 20-year-old woman was out in a remote area with her recent ex-boyfriend when she suddenly disappeared. After he returned home to his parents house the following morning bloodied and dirty, his family began an extensive search for the young woman without informing her family. After reporting her missing, they finally notified her mom of the days events, and a massive search followed that same week. When her remains were finally uncovered, they brought more questions than answers to the investigation. This is the story of Allyson Watterson.

Acclaimed New Zealand writer Witi Ihimaera launched his memoir Native Son at Going West in 2019. He gave a powerful and emotional reading from the book, with sonic accompaniment by the multi-instrumentalist Kingsley Spargo. At Going West, we were extremely honoured to host the launch, for what was the second installment of Ihimaera's planned three-part memoir. To mark the occasion, he read an evocative passage drawing on ancient Māori legend and wrestling with the trauma of his teen years. Musical polymath Kingsley Spargo provided a rich, multi-layered soundscape to accompany the reading, with diverse techniques on both taonga puoro and orchestral instruments, mixed with innovative use of digital processing. The session was introduced by Harriet Allan from Penguin Random House. Witi Ihimaera is of Te Whānau a Kai, Te Aitanga a Māhaki, Rongowhakaata, Tūhoe, Te Whānau ā Apanui and Ngāti Porou descent. He was the first Māori to publish a novel, Tangi, in 1973. He has subsequently gone on to become one of New Zealand's leading writers. He is passionate about writing Māori stories and creating opportunities for them to be shown not only in print but also in theatre and on film. The first installment of his memoir, Māori Boy, won the 2016 Ockham Award for the best non-fiction work. His play, All Our Sons, won six Wellington theatre awards. He is currently writing the third volume of his memoir.

Science fiction writer Phillip Mann, in conversation with journalist and sci fi fan David Larsen, discusses his writing process, the influence of the New Zealand landscape on his work, and the story of having his extraordinary science fiction novel The Disestablishment of Paradise published. He describes this novel as 'a vindication of love'. Despite 40 years of writing, Mann revealed an astonishing fact to the Going West audience - this was the first time he'd ever been invited to a book festival, his first time sitting at the podium talking about his books in either the UK or New Zealand. In this enlightening conversation, he reveals why that might be. The Disestablishment of Paradise is an epic tale of love and destruction on a strange planet called Paradise. It is concerned with ecological protection and was, in part, written in response to the horror Mann felt about the destruction of the Amazonian rain forests and other ecological disasters such as that in the Gulf of Mexico. He hoped the book would serve as a warning, a wake-up call. In writing it he went back to a technique he had used in other works; a story-teller who can stand aside from the action and comment on it, thus allowing irony and discussion.

Sometimes, you can feel stuck. Like me, right now, trying to make justice to yet another amazing woman making a difference in the world. Giving Circles. Covid-19. $1.5 MM in donations. Going West. Yet again impostor syndrome wants to kick in. Will I make it? Will I give up this time around? I drag my feet around my puzzle, I question whether it is too late to do something good today. And then I stand up and remember Emily's words. Take a deep breath. Surely words will come easy when you speak passionately. And indeed they do. Giving Circles made simple My guest for episode 6 is very close to my heart, even though we have never met before. Emily Rasmussen is the founder and CEO of Grapevine, a group giving platform that helps groups of friends, families, alumni, and more to create Giving Circles. A giving circle is a form of participatory philanthropy where groups of individuals donate their own money or time to a pooled fund, decide together where to give these away to charity or community projects and, in doing so, seek to increase their awareness of and engagement in the issues covered by the charity or community project. Wikipedia I could not be more excited at the prospect of the Giving Circles concept being widely spread. After all, at the charity, we are always looking for the donor who is willing to endorse us and indeed create the scale effect that you get with a Giving Circle. Maybe one-day Grapevine will expand here! For now, it is yet another business that brings us a story of growth during Covid-19. Bringing Giving Circles Online Grapevine launched in March and since then they have managed to move $1.5 MM to non-profits, growing their MoM donations at 67% since then. These are not small numbers. Grapevine lives off "tips" from the donours, who can choose what to give on checkout, based (I guess) on their satisfaction with the service they are getting with Grapevine. And through the crisis, donours have indeed found benefit in using Grapevine. Emily always believed there would be a transition from offline to online Giving Circles. As a long-standing concept, founders had often resistance in changing the format of how they met or how they pooled their donations. It was working in many ways to achieve the impact they wanted in the communities. But along came Covid-19 and with it a huge social need. Members of giving circles around the US wanted to step up to this need. However, without the usual means of pooling resources and meeting in-person, they had to move online. Grapevine quickly expanded its offering to help members set up zoom meetings and organise virtual events. They also created mechanisms to allow people to donate out of their usual giving schedule and added the ability to invite friends outside a circle to donate. The troubling times It was not all roses, so to speak. In fact, as the crisis hit, Emily was faced with the round of financing the company was doing frozen as investors stayed on the sidelines to see how things developed. At the same time, the volume of work went crazy for the team of 6, working by then between the East and West Coast as well as Argentina. The team made use of virtual stand-ups to stay connected (even though they mostly did not stand) and Emily believes they got much better at using slack. Finally, she feels like they also grew more flexible in their working practices, knowing people were home all with different circumstances. There are things they will keep when all this is over, whatever over means at this point. Growth on the Horizon At the same time, growing their community at such a fast pace also allowed them to choose a new path of growth - reaching out to this same community to support their equity crowdfunding. The pressure to grow is significant as the need for charity funding is unabated. Emily wants to follow along what Grapevine donours are asking. They want to service existing Giving Circles but also help the creation of brand new Giving Circles that did not exist offline before. So they are offering a piece of the equity action in return for a small investment from the community. It reminds me of Martina in Episode 2 - never stop adapting she said! Changing life Emily also took the bold decision to listen to her mum and move back home to North California to avoid spending the lockdown period in New York. She moved for a few weeks and has now been there for five months. She was lucky to have her own space and keep with her intense hours of work and for now, she can only found positives in the move. The downside will be when she moves out most likely. I think my Mum will relate to that next week when we board that flight back. At home, Emily could dedicate more time to cooking with her Mum and have meals together, making sure she actually had time for a short break away from work. She started doing more walks and even tried walking meetings as a way to stay active whilst coping with the demands of her business. We both agreed running meetings were a step too further from where our fitness levels were. Managing Challenges Looking back, the biggest challenge for Emily was to deal with the unknown. It is hard to plan or respond if you don't know what is happening next. Emily brings us a few good tips on keeping her sanity through the crisis times. Firstly, she kept up with her morning journaling practice, which she highly recommends. Also, getting out of the unstoppable NY life, Emily also found that time moved at a more contained pace. Time did not fly. Reflecting on the last 5 months, her advice to self would be to take a deep breath and surround herself with people that can help her see the forest from the trees and where they are in the bigger picture. She feels like they were in such crisis mode that this was not always possible. With my charity hat on, I am delighted at how Grapevine found ways to allow charities to continue sourcing financing to the immense need they had on the ground. With my business hat on, I am excited to see how a business could grow out of proportion as a side-effect of this crisis. And me, I just loved meeting yet another amazing woman doing business that is truly changing the world.
