Samantha Tennant sits down with Andrea Hairston — novelist, playwright, Afrofuturist, and self-described "scientist, artiste, and hoodoo conjurer" — to talk about her latest novel, THE REDEMPTION CENTER IS CLOSED ON SUNDAYS, a genre-defying extra-dimensional murder mystery anchored by a Saint Bernardoodle dog detective named Una. Andrea draws on her decades in theater — as director, playwright, and professor — to explain how she weaves mystery, romance, and science fiction into a single story without losing the thread of any of them. She talks about using the dog as a pivot point: Una doesn't recognize genre, she just knows the people she loves, which turns out to be the perfect lens for a story that spans dimensions. The conversation moves into Andrea's background shift from mathematics and physics to theater (with a detour through lighting design and Ohm's Law), her long-standing research into animal cognition and dog behavior, and what Afrofuturism actually means in practice — not predicting the future, but understanding the present deeply enough to make real choices about what comes next. She uses Harriet Tubman and Einstein as parallel examples of people who imagined their way to something that didn't exist yet. The Fresh Fiction Facts segment reveals she owns a "ridiculous" number of DVDs (including every Star Trek series), that she'd rather visit the future than the past, and that her most dog-eared books are Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower, anything by Ursula Le Guin, and Momo by Michael Ende — which she re-reads in German. Andrea closes with a peek at her work-in-progress: QUEEN FOR TODAY, a secondary world fantasy about a carnival queen of misrule whose single day of reign changes everything.

What if one simple daily habit this summer could reduce screen battles, spark meaningful conversations, and build your child's character — all at the same time? Summer reading activities do not have to be complicated to be powerful.This episode shows how 10 minutes a day of read alouds can transform your summer into something your kids actually remember . . . with practical ideas for every age from elementary all the way through high school:✅Why read alouds are the single most powerful summer reading activity you can do✅Age-by-age ideas for elementary, middle school, and high school that actually work✅How one question after any chapter sparks real conversations without any pressure✅Simple hands-on activities that pair perfectly with any book your family is reading✅Why stopping read alouds when kids can read on their own is one of the biggest homeschool mistakes✅Why 10 consistent minutes beats any elaborate summer learning plan every timeGrab the FREE Read Aloud Magic and start your summer reading activities this week.Resources for YouRead Aloud Magic (free resource — favorite read aloud books, tips, and ideas, linked in show notes) Show Notes:One Simple Summer Habit That Does More Than Any CurriculumWhat if I told you there is one simple habit this summer that could reduce screen battles, build family relationships, improve reading skills, spark meaningful conversations, and create memories your kids remember for years? It doesn't require expensive curriculum, elaborate lesson plans, or hours of preparation.Many homeschool moms during the summer are thinking — should we keep schooling? What if they forget something? Do I have enough time to take a break? What if summer learning could feel more like family connection and less like school?Summer is the perfect time to shift from worksheets to stories, from checklists to conversations, and from assignments to curiosity.The One Habit: Read AloudsRead alouds give you so much more than just reading. They give you leadership. They give you learning. They give you character development. They give you family bonding and family conversation. And best of all, one book can work for many ages.I still remember when Steve was reading the Little Bridges series to our kids. We were driving in our giant van and all of a sudden the kids started talking about how that grandpa in the story was so crotchety. They said they'd never want their grandpa to act like that. Did I ask them questions? Did I give them a multiple-choice test? No. They had been so involved in the story that they were comparing the grandpa's character to their own grandpa's. That is family bonding, character development, and family conversation — all happening naturally.How to Get Started This WeekIf you are not reading aloud, especially in the summer when things slow down, I want to challenge you to pick a book today or tomorrow and start reading 10 minutes a day. Before breakfast, after breakfast, before bed, during lunch while the kids are eating and you have their full attention.Don't overthink it. Consistency matters more than length. It is better to do 10 minutes every single day this summer than to do 30 minutes today and then nothing for five days. Schedule it. Put it on your calendar so it actually happens.What C.S. Lewis Knew About Stories and ImaginationC.S. Lewis lost his mother when he was very young, and books became a refuge for him. He spent countless hours in mythology, fairy tales, and classic literature. That imagination was what inspired the Chronicles of Narnia, Mere Christianity, and The Screwtape Letters.He said — reason is the natural organ of truth, but imagination is the organ of meaning. He believed this is where children grasp meaning. Through stories, children encounter courage, sacrifice, honesty, loyalty, and faith before they are even able to explain those things. Read alouds feed both the mind and the heart. They do more than teach reading skills. They shape your kids' imagination, character, and faith.Too often when we start school, we squash that imagination — sit down, do a bunch of workbooks, read this short story and answer these questions. That is not education. We need to protect curiosity and imagination. How did we get to where we are with technology and creativity? Because someone had imagination. And a lot of times that starts with really good books.Summer Reading Activities for Elementary AgesFor elementary-aged kids, focus on wonder, curiosity, and family connection. Picture books, chapter books, family read alouds are all great places to start. Read under a tree. Go up in a backyard fort. Spread out a blanket at the park. Read during popsicle time. Build a blanket fort and read underneath it. Listen to audiobooks in the car.Make it fun. Draw your favorite characters. Create a craft related to the story. Act out scenes. Create a treasure hunt based on a book.Laura Ingalls Wilder's mother Caroline was a certified school teacher who believed in education and literacy as essential, not optional. Even during the difficult frontier years, no matter where they lived, she prioritized teaching her children to read. And those family experiences became the inspiration for the entire Little House series.What if you read Little House in the Big Woods this summer? Make homemade butter. Learn a pioneer chore. Cook over a fire. Compare pioneer life to modern life. Easy, fun, and meaningful — not just reading and writing.Summer Reading Activities for Middle SchoolMiddle schoolers often become passionate about specific topics. Right now my 11-year-old is into history and has been reading historical fiction. Maybe your kids are into horses, planes, ancient history, missions, nature, or sports.Let your child pick the topic — not you. They will be so much more interested. Then let them read three kinds of books on that topic — a fiction book, a biography, and a nonfiction. For Hunter, that looked like a fictional baseball story, a biography of Derek Jeter, and a book on the science and math of baseball.Ask one question after reading each day — what surprised you? What would you like to learn more about? What would you have done differently in that story? Then maybe do one extra activity. Watch a documentary, go to a museum, cook a related meal, build a model.These things develop critical thinking skills, ownership, and independent learning. I didn't want my kids to always have to do everything a teacher told them. I wanted them to think for themselves, plan for themselves, and make choices for themselves.Summer Reading Activities for High SchoolMany moms stop reading aloud when their kids can read on their own. Big mistake. Many stop in high school. Even bigger mistake. Teens still need discussion. They still need to develop their listening skills. They need exposure to great ideas. And they still need family connection.We still read aloud in the morning, and Steve would read to them several evenings a week. For older kids, try a Christian biography, a mission story, historical fiction, great literature, the classics, or an apologetics book. Don't be afraid of a classic just because the vocabulary feels heavy — the ideas are worth it.Ask questions like — what character stood out today? What would you have done in that person's place? How does this compare to Scripture? What leadership lesson do you see? Choose one biography or one classic and read it together, then discuss it once a week. Over ice cream. At a coffee shop. On an evening walk. Keep it simple.Bringing It All TogetherPair your read alouds with simple summer experiences. If you're reading about Harriet Tubman, go outside at night and look at the North Star — she followed it to guide enslaved people to freedom. If you're reading about a historical time period, bake something from that era.Just last week we were reading Why Don't You Get a Horse, Sam Adams? and we made Johnny Cakes for breakfast — which we found out are actually called journey cakes because you could take them on a long journey and they wouldn't go bad. She was telling her dad all about it when he got home that evening. That is learning that sticks.Summer becomes intentional, relational, and memorable — not just educational.You don't have to recreate school. You don't need elaborate plans or expensive curriculum. One book. One conversation. One family read aloud can inspire a love of learning. And inspiring a love of learning? That's the easiest thing read alouds do.To help you get started, grab my free Read Aloud Magic resource in the show notes. It has 20 to 30 of our family's favorite read aloud books, tips for how to run read alouds, and simple ideas for turning books into meaningful family learning experiences — no workbook required.Will you take the read aloud challenge this summer? Start this week — just 10 minutes a day. That's all it takes.

For many Americans, Harriet Tubman can seem more like a character out of myth than a flesh-and-blood historical figure. Many know of Tubman's escape from slavery and her brave work on the Underground Railroad, but little more about her life and personal experiences. In this interview with David M. Rubenstein, prizewinning author Tiya Miles delves into the real woman, from Tubman's birth as “Minty Ross” to her activism and beyond, to offer a clearer image of the American hero.Recorded on June 21, 2025

What do Civil War pension files reveal about one of history's most successful slave rebellions? Historian Edda Fields-Black joins Roman to trace a story of fire, flight, and freedom — beginning on a South Carolina rice plantation in 1863, where a Union raid liberated over 700 people in a single night. By unearthing Black soldiers' testimonies buried in military pension applications, they resurrect not just the raid, but the lives and communities it transformed.

In Paper Heroines: Women Writers in Conversation and Community Across the Sea Islands, 1838-1902 (U South Carolina Press, 2026), Dr. Mollie Barnes studies the ways women represented their own and one another's lives in their personal diaries and their biographies of their contemporaries. By reading these women writers—Black and white, obscure and well-known—in conversation, Dr. Barnes presents entirely new portraits of these freedom fighters of the nineteenth-century South Carolina Lowcountry. Like feminist and anti-racist leaders in our own moment, the women in Paper Heroines were often flawed. White women reformers sometimes created tensions, silences, revisions, and erasures within their print-culture networks, obscuring the lives and contributions of Black women. Black women developed counternarratives and counter-networks as they sought to reclaim their own life histories. What emerges from Barnes's exploration of these textual conversations is a story of complicated relationships that reveal the dynamism of women's lives in a place and time that was equally tumultuous and consequential. Key terms and names is this episode include: close reading, archival silences, the peripheries, life writing, The Penn School, Port Royal, Beaufort, Combahee River, St. Helena, Relief Workers, Harriet Tubman, Fanny Kemble, Psyche, Teresa, Laura Towne, Charlotte Forten, Mr. Holland, and Sarah Hopkins Bradford. Guest: Dr. Mollie Barnes is Associate Professor of English at the University of South Carolina Beaufort, Vice President of the Margaret Fuller Society, and Vice President of Organizational Matters for the Society for the Study of American Women Writers. She has published numerous articles and book chapters on 19th century women writers, and is the author of Paper Heroines, which received funding support from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Host: Dr. Christina Gessler holds a PhD in history, which she uses to explore which stories we tell, and what happens to those we never tell. She is an academic writing coach and editor.

The Honourable Elizabeth Dowdeswell reflects on her time as Ontario's lieutenant governor and what defines the province she served for nearly a decade. Then, more than 60 years after Canada adopted the Maple Leaf and Ontario unveiled its own flag, why didn't everyone rally around these new symbols? #onpoli's John Michael McGrath explains. And we visit Salem Chapel in St. Catharines, where Harriet Tubman once worshipped and where the legacy of the Underground Railroad and the fight for civil rights still resonates today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Harriet Tubman was a heroic abolitionist in the cause to end chattel slavery. She was also an excellent astronomer and naturalist — and an expert birder. She mastered the hoot of the Barred Owl, using it as a signal throughout the Underground Railroad to let freedom seekers know she had arrived. This week is Black Birders Week!

In this powerful episode Lori Harris explores the hidden emotional struggle many high achievers face: feeling disconnected despite external success. You may have the career, the accomplishments, the relationships, or the lifestyle others admire  yet still feel exhausted, emotionally drained, and strangely unfulfilled. Lori unpacks why this happens and how to begin reconnecting with your authentic self. Inside this episode, Lori introduces the Four Quadrants of Life: Health & Well-Being Love & Relationships Vocation & Creativity Time & Money Freedom She explains how imbalance in any of these areas can quietly create feelings of emptiness, even when everything "looks successful" from the outside. Drawing inspiration from Harriet Tubman's extraordinary journey, Lori reminds us that freedom is not simply a destination it's a way of being. Your desires, longings, and feelings of dissatisfaction are not flaws to ignore; they are signals guiding you back toward alignment and authenticity. This episode is an invitation to stop performing success and start living in alignment with who you truly are. If you've been asking yourself: "Why do I still feel empty even after achieving so much?" This conversation is for you. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE Why success alone doesn't create fulfillment. How emotional disconnection develops in high achievers. The importance of living congruently with your values. How to identify areas where you've abandoned yourself. Why freedom begins with self-awareness and authenticity.

Episode SummaryHost Steve Roby sits down with Bay Area bassist, composer, and bandleader Marcus Shelby to discuss his upcoming SF Jazz performance, a tribute to Miles Davis's landmark 1949–50 sessions, later released as Birth of the Cool. Marcus reflects on his journey with the music, the genius of Gil Evans's orchestrations, and what it means to bring this rarely performed repertoire back to life with his new orchestra.About Marcus ShelbyMarcus Shelby has spent more than two decades creating large-scale jazz works rooted in history and community — oratorios and suites that trace the Port Chicago Mutiny, Harriet Tubman's journey, and the Civil Rights Movement. Now he turns his attention to a different kind of history: the 11 tracks Miles Davis and his nonet recorded that became Birth of the Cool.What We Talk AboutHow Marcus approaches composition — researching, traveling, and even "method acting" into the stories he tells through musicHis unconventional path into jazz: a post-basketball-career pivot in his early twenties that led him straight to Miles DavisWhy Birth of the Cool was actually the last Miles Davis music to click for him — and why that makes senseThe specific genius of Gil Evans and the unusual instrumentation of the nonet (alto, baritone, trumpet, French horn, trombone, tuba, rhythm section) and how those combinations create something unrepeatableA deep dive into two featured tracks: Boplicity — the most purely Gil Evans track on the record — and the luminous Moonbeams, and what each demands of the musicians who play itRising trumpet star Skyler Tang (a Bay Area native now at The New School in New York), who has been commissioned to rearrange Deception for the concertMarcus's original composition Monk in the City, written for the same instrumentation as the Birth of the Cool nonetWhat a live performance offers that a studio recording cannot — the interpretive choices, the improvisational voice of each soloist, the acoustic magic of SF Jazz's Miner AuditoriumMarcus's wider work as Artistic Director of Healdsburg Jazz (now in his sixth year), his long relationships with SF Jazz, Yerba Buena Gardens Festival, Stanford Jazz, and Community Living JazzFeatured MusicBoplicity — Miles DavisMoonbeams — Miles DavisAll music in this episode is used under fair use for educational commentary, with all rights retained by the original creators.Upcoming PerformanceMarcus Shelby New Orchestra: Miles at 100 — Birth of the Cool Revisited

So much of what is happening these days seems utterly nonsensical, from Trump’s war crime and profanity-laced Easter rant, to the whipsaw on Iran. So, is it simply Occam’s razor, or is there more going on here than we’re led to believe? Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it. — President Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom: A Call for the Emancipation of the Generous Energies of a People (1913) The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson — and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of W. W. The country is going through a repetition of Jackson’s fight with the Bank of the United States — only on a far bigger and broader basis. — President Franklin D. Roosevelt, letter to Col. Edward Mandell House (21 November 1933); as quoted in F.D.R.: His Personal Letters, 1928-1945, edited by Elliott Roosevelt (New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950), pg. 373 I would suggest nothing we’re seeing, including (especially) the seemingly nonsensical, is ‘accidental’ or coincidental. It is PSYOP/PSWAR, a potent toxic mixture of POSIWID and chaos theory designed and intended to rapidly produce maximum chaos resulting in a ‘Clash of Civilizations‘ and The End of History and the Last Man, to ultimately bring about a ‘Novus Ordo Seclorum’1234 a la Genesis 11 → Genesis 6 → culminating in Psalm 2 → Revelation 19.

Headlines [x] = Mentioned / Discussed Trump: “A Whole Civilization with Die Tonight” If President Trump carries out his threat to kill the entire civilization of Iran, he will join the ranks of Cato the Elder, Genghis Khan, Cortez, and other villains in history who chose the policy of destroying an entire civilization. Needless to say, this is not what Washington, Madison, Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin had in mind when they founded the US Constitutional Republic. Members of the US government—as well as We the People—should think about the reflections of multiple Roman authors who regarded the total annihilation of Carthage as an outrage and repudiation of Rome's republican values and virtues. In the Aeneid, Virgil frames the Punic Wars as a fateful conflict initiated by the Punic Queen Dido’s curse on Aeneas’s descendants. I interpret this as Virgil's way of condemning the “unspeakable” destruction of Carthage. The American people should be aware of the fact that if our US government does indeed annihilate the Iranian nation forever, it will certainly have a vast array of terrible consequences for us and for all of mankind. Among other disasters, it is likely that millions of Iranians will be forced to flee to other lands, including those of Europe. Many young men who see their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters suffer will be animated with a burning desire for revenge. I anticipate great horrors ahead for all of us.

A single line from Scripture can expose what we really worship. We open with Deuteronomy and the first commandment, then keep coming back to the same question: what happens to a family and a nation when God is treated like an optional add-on instead of the center?We move from prayer into real life, including the shock of loss and the reminder that people matter more than things. That perspective reshapes the daily priority list fast. I ask God for forgiveness, for courage over cowardice, and for the strength to live the gospel in actions, not just words. If you're carrying grief, stress, or the weight of trying to lead a home, you'll hear language you can borrow for your own prayers.From there we read Proverbs 5:18–19 and talk plainly about marriage, intimacy, and why the advice you accept has to line up with God and Jesus Christ. We also read Deuteronomy 5 at length, walking through the Ten Commandments as a foundation for moral clarity, personal restraint, and public life, alongside reflections on education and the long fight over faith in the public square.We close with stories that aim straight at courage: Medal of Honor duty under fire, and Harriet Tubman's testimony about trusting God when she felt utterly alone.

We carry on our Women's History Month films with Kasi Lemmons' remarkable Harriet Tubman biopic Harriet, starring Cynthia Erivo. While the film received mixed reviews on release, it is more than worth seeing it for yourself, as it explores the life and history of one of the most famous conductors on the Underground Railroad and the psychological and generational trauma of slavery.

Journalist Esther Dillard hosts of ERASED, a short documentary series that tells stories about historical figures whose contributions are often overlooked.

The story of the Exodus begins not with miracles or plagues, but with acts of quiet courage. In this Old Testament Reflection on Exodus 1–6, Rosalynde Welch explores the network of women who ensure the survival of the infant Moses—midwives, a mother, a sister, a princess, and a wife—each acting at great personal risk to preserve a life that will one day help liberate a people. Welch reflects on how these early chapters of Exodus reveal a deeper pattern in sacred history: God's saving work often unfolds through “small-s saviors,” ordinary men and women who cooperate to protect life, resist injustice, and prepare the way for deliverance. Drawing connections from ancient Israel to the abolitionist work of Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman, she invites us to consider how quiet acts of courage and partnership can shape the course of history.

Our conversation surrounding the history of women who made history is far from over. In true homegirl fashion, Sarah Jakes Roberts challenges listeners to—yes—use your voice.

Exposing Black History Myths by John Doyle. Black Inventions, Thomas Jefferson's Black Children, Harriet Tubman, Tuskegee Airmen, Redlining etc… The “Tuskegee Airmen” is just a myth btw “Redlining” literally wasn't a real thing btw “Black Wall Street” was not real and the “Tulsa Race Massacre” didn't happen btw They like John Brown because they want to be able to kill your family for “anti-racism” and “trans rights” btw Top 10 things black people claim they invented but actually didn't btw The “Harriet Tubman” legend is literally a myth invented by like 2 Communist writers btw Black nationalists thought that Liberia was going to be Wakanda and then showed up there only to find slavery and then get deported for being mad about it btw Thomas Jefferson didn't actually have a kid with his slave btw Europeans didn't have to go capture Africans in the jungle like on TV because they were already being sold by other Africans for like a thousand years btw Black people were enslaving other black people on American soil before George Washington was even born btw The “Rosa Parks” story is literally not even approximately true btw John Doyle https://x.com/JohnDoyle    @JohnDoyle· John Doyle @JohnDoyle Patriot @theblaze USA YouTube.com/JohnDoyle 124.3K Followers
