This week I was able to revisit with Yoshika Wason, who is an educator and writer, as well as a 2nd generation born and raised ex-member of the Unification Church. We explore a plethora of stories and intersections between our two perspectives of growing up moonie in the city of Bridgeport Connecticut. We discuss the settlement era of the Unification church and what that looked like from a child's perspective. We also talk about Poetry, Wonhwado, navigating school systems in a corrupt system, escaping the cycle of income inequality, labor trafficking of 1st generation Unification Church members, and so much more. Bridgeport Ct has one of the highest crime rates in the United States and Bridgeport is ranked as 2nd in the US as greatest city with income inequality. Please keep in mind that many Unification Church members are working for trade services, with no actual paystubs, health care, retirement, insurance or social security. (Labor trafficking, financial abuse, debt bondage,) Also keep in mind that during this "Settlement era" there is immense pressure to support the church and donate/tithe unjustifiable amounts to the church and affiliated organizations. When a survivor tells their story, reach out and let them know they have been heard. You can find Yoshika here or at Yoshikawason.com Renrobot on Patreon & Ko-Fi. http://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Talks2/Powell/Powell-110916.htm --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blessed-child2/support
Our father, Brice Brenneman, the original Mr. Brenneman, is on the show today! We do our best to retrace his 35-year career as a teacher: from being surprised and unprepared to be teaching psychology and sociology in his first year (5:45), to serving for two years as the director of Hope School in Palestine (12:40), to the reputation he felt he had (19:00), to dealing with changes in technology and curriculum (28:00). We don't ask him which son is his favorite, but we do talk about what it was like teaching his sons, as well as some other interesting tidbits and fun stories. The Numbers Game was our Elite 8 picks, which were identical except for one game: North Carolina vs. St. Peter's. One of us picked the Tarheels; one of us picked the Peacocks, and will be making brownies for the other as a punishment!

In April 2019 we met Zekria and his five children next to their tent in Moria on Lesvos, the camp that unfortunately burned down a few weeks ago. Tune in to hear about Zekria's time in the camp, how he ended up in Switzerland, and how he worked hard to found the Wave Of Hope schools to provide children living inside the camp with basic education. Note that we recorded this episode back at the beginning of August, which is why we did not address the fire in our conversation here.

Thank you for listening to the What Works for Children's Social Care podcast - COVID-19 special. In this episode we are delighted to be joined by Rachael Pryor, Head of Service, Inclusive City and Virtual School Headteacher at Bristol City Council. In this episode, Rachael discusses how lockdown helped herself and her team think differently about how they organise their time more effectively, in particular with children who are being educated outside of the local authority. Rachael also considers the complexities of assessing when it is right for children, families and carers to take up the opportunity to return to school. Listen to the episode to hear more about how Rachael and the HOPE School team are working to encourage positive cultures in schools, so they are inclusive and understanding of attachment and trauma.

It’s Palm Sunday. Instead of processing around the outside of Hope School as we’ve done the past couple of years, we waved our branches from our homes, worshipping together via Zoom. (See raleighmennonite.org/2020/palm-sunday for a link to the video shared during the service of several RMCers waving branches in front of their homes.) Indeed, things are different this year. People sensed something different as well when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. Jerusalem was in turmoil. Jesus continued to pull back the curtain and show the world the one who would shepherd and steward creation, not with force and coercion, but with care and love. This unmasking is the task that is always set before us. To uncover and reveal the structures and mechanisms, the powers and principalities of this world. And then we put our bodies together. We put our money together. We put our lives together, of living and dying, and set before this one we follow as Messiah. Melissa’s sermon was from Matthew 21:1-17.
