Concept of Peace: Siva discusses peace as a profound state of consciousness that goes beyond the absence of conflict. It involves a sense of awe and connection with the beauty of creation and the presence of the divine in the world.Path to Peace and Creativity: Siva shares that his journey to inner peace began in childhood through imaginative play. As an adult, he continues to achieve this state through creative endeavors such as music, art, and writing, viewing life itself as an art form.Illusions and Materialism: He talks about the illusions of the material world (Maya) and how they can be distracting and distressing. Engaging in creative activities helps transcend these illusions and connect with a deeper reality.Spiritual Practices: Emphasizing non-violence (Ahimsa), Siva highlights the importance of cultivating love, kindness, and compassion. He also discusses the need to understand different perspectives and resolve conflicts through reconciliation and understanding.Role of Music and Nature: Siva reflects on how music and nature have been central to his life and well-being. Immersing oneself in nature and creative pursuits helps maintain balance and counter the disturbances of modern, materialistic life.--Stephen (Siva) Longfellow FiskeBorn into a musical and artistic family in New York City, Stephen was a natural in singing and acting, andperformed in school plays and musicals from elementary school through college. He wrote poems andsongs in his head and on paper before becoming a self-taught guitarist at the High School of Music andArt during the folkmusic era of the 60's. After attending Civil Rights Marches in New York City, Stephentravelled to Washington DC in August, 1963, to take part in the Great March on Washington whereMartin Luther King Jr. gave the “I Have A Dream” Speech which greatly impacted Stephen towards hispeace and justice activism. Greatly influenced by the songs of freedom and equality and the call forsocial justice of the Civil Rights Movement, Stephen developed his own unique folk music style, andwhile in college, did his first public performances in the Greenwich Village coffee houses, such asGerde's Folk City and the Bitter End. After college, he travelled to San Francisco where he became thelead singer and writer with an acid-rock band, “The Bycycle.” The Bycycle became booked by a majoragency and performed with such acts as Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, Taj Mahal, Canned Heat, andJimi Hendrix. When the band broke up, Stephen began his solo career and over the years has writtenhundreds of songs and produced a dozen albums of his music. He has performed widely across the U.S.and overseas, has sung and done voice-overs on commercials, and his music has been in films and videosoundtracks. An award-winning songwriter, his songs have been covered by such well known artists asJose Feliciano and Luther Vandross. Stephen has been primarily an independent artist selling hisproducts directly to his audiences and keeping a contact list. He is an engaging performer who loves tointeract with his audiences and encourages people to sing-along. Accompanying himself on acousticguitar, he is a peace and environmental activist whose timely message in song, stories, and poetry havemade him a popular performer, always warmly and enthusiastically received by his audiences.--Jerusalem Prayer ProjectStephen Fiske Music Hosted on Acast.

Betty Ann Kilby and her family were terrorized when they defied their local school board and the governor of Virginia to desegregate the only high school in their county in 1959. And yet, nearly 50 years later, in 2007, she was willing to talk to a descendant of a family who had once enslaved her ancestors. It was a defining move reminiscent of a well-known quote in Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's ‘I Have a Dream' speech of 1963. The passage read in part: "I have a dream that one day... the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood." Join us as two courageous women take a seat at the I SEE U table of sisterhood and chat unguarded with Host Eddie Robinson about the power of forgiveness, acceptance and reconciliation. "Wit, Wills and Walls" author, Dr. Betty Kilby Fisher Baldwin, reveals to I SEE U surprising details never-before-told of her personal life; and Phoebe Kilby, co-author of the book, "Cousins," candidly shares her own insight into attitudes toward reparations and how White Americans whose families owned slaves grapple with stories and narratives of descendants who are now starting to trace their hidden histories linked to some form of enslavement.
Hello to you listening in Garfield, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.Imagine that voicing your ideas is an act of creation. When we have the courage to use the power of our voice to speak our mind we have taken a bold and beautiful step toward making happen what we desire. Our best chance of being seen, heard, understood and listened to is by speaking with purpose, resolve, design.There is a galaxy of difference between spoken word and written word. One can read I Have a Dream speech and agree that an end to racism is a fine idea. Or, listen to Martin Luther King speaking his words, transmitting the emotion of his idea, creating empathy and energy. You will jump out of your socks at the audacity of what King believes is possible!Our voice is both the sound we make and the message we are delivering in our voice. Women especially fail to use the power of their voice to say what they mean and mean what they say. They hide behind the written word. But saying what we mean takes courage beyond writing words on the page.I'm coaching a professional client who is working on her Origin Story. She wrote and sketched her work on large pieces of blank paper. When we met on Zoom she held each piece of paper up to the camera walking me through her work - step by step - page by page - in her own voice - speaking what she had created. There was joy, pride, courage, freedom of expression, and commitment to being who she said she is - her Who!Speaking aloud does that; it shifts an idea on paper to becoming a reality when spoken aloud. Nothing matches the ability of a simple human voice to create an emotional connection.CTA: If you are ready or getting ready to be ready to work with me to become a better Story Influencer creating emotional connections with those you serve, I am ready to support you at Quarter Moon Story Arts.

Today is the 60th Anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s I Have A Dream Speech. Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson's new tough on crime policy is working as he aims to take career criminals off the streets.
Off of politics for a much-needed respite. Instead, today, in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the I Have A Dream Speech and the 1963 March on Washington, a tale of Southern grace. The South is a land of contrasts with a rich history that embraces both the humane and the inhumane, racism and slavery, inclusion and diversity. Here's a short piece that honors a fallen hero, Progressive Voice's own Wyc Orr. I hope you'll listen.

As we commemorate the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. this week we were faced with a challenging question: Did Dr. King succeed? Society loves a good success story, but where do our kids learn the virtues to establish courageous faithfulness in challenging times? Is faithfulness more desirable than success? Dr. Kathy Koch talks this, and what virtues are essential for us to instill in the children we interact with, on today's Facing the Dark.
In grounding his dream in Scripture, Martin Luther King Jr. shows us the way forward. This Point was originally published on August 27, 2021.

Cue the fireworks and bring on the confetti; we're celebrating the 33rd anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr. Day!Yes, I recognize celebrating a 33rd anniversary is a bit odd. Still, considering the hard-fought battle to have the only "King" we recognize honored with a national holiday, I think it's worth celebrating this historic milestone.In this bonus episode, we are recognizing the movers and shakers like Congressman John Conyers, Stevie Wonder, and even the National Football League (yes, they actually put their money behind the cause) who didn't make it into our history books but played an essential role in advocating for this historic piece of legislation. This episode has some surprising tidbits like:How our favorite version of the "Happy Birthday" song written by Stevie Wonder helped mobilize the movementPresident Ronald Reagan's reluctance to sign the bill into law.How Martin Luther King Day became recognized as a National Holiday in ALL 50 states in 2000 #sideye #southcarolinaEpisode Highlights[00:01:09]Calling all Cliff Notes readers, listen here as I share an overview of today's episode and how the events of the late 60s still plague us today.[00:05:07] Detroit vs. Everybody became a slogan in the mid-2000s, but the Great State of Michigan, The National Black Caucus, and The King Family advocated for decades; here's a little known black history fact about Congressman John Conyers and his mission to make MLK Day a federal holiday.[00:06:17] Ever wondered why Stevie Wonder wrote his version of The Happy Birthday Song? Tune in as I explain the cultural significance of those lyrics that we tend to "mumble through." --Bet you'll want to learn the whole song after listening to this episode (smile).[00:06:48] It's no secret that Dr. King delivered his renowned I Have A Dream Speech on the National Mall. But did you know that another historic rally took place in his honor? The Rally For Peace, organized by his family and famous supporters like Stevie Wonder, played a significant role in establishing MLK Day. Tune in to learn more.[00:08:17] Fifteen years after Congressman Conyers introduced the bill, six million petition signatures later, the bill was again denied. Tune into this episode to learn why and who was holding out![00:09:18] President Ronald Reagan signed MLK Day into law on November 02, 1983, but he wasn't happy about it--hear what President "Make America Great Again" volume one had to say.[00:10:39] Do you remember the first time you saw MLK Day celebrated as a National Holiday? Truth bomb: it was MANY years after the bill was enacted. This part of history definitely wasn't in your textbooks, but you'll find it on this podcast![00:10:44] The NFL is known for many things, but Civil Rights Activism isn't one. Still, we give credit where it's due. Learn how the NFL shut down the state of Arizona for its resistance to making MLK Day a holiday.[00:13:44] Wondering when all 50 states finally recognized Martin Luther King Jr. Day? The fight that began four days after his assassination ended in 2000 when South Carolina recognized MLK day as a state holiday.[00:17:23] If you love this episode, let me share a few ways you can help us get this much-needed dose of history into more AirPods![00:18:10] Tune into the next episode, which is all about the Chinese New YearPut down that stuffy, boring textbook, grab your earbuds, and get into the most lit history lesson EVER!Research Information:https://www.ywcastpaul.org/mlk-economic-equality/https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/15-year-battle-martin-luther-king-jr-dayhttps://www.ajc.com/news/state--regional-govt--politics/john-conyers-and-the-uphill-battle-honor-mlk-birthday/Dx8jhl0KJANrvMAZ9ApUCO/https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/how-martin-luther-king-jr-s-birthday-became-a-holiday-3#:~:text=Representative%20John%20Conyers%20introduced%20the,of%20Representative's%20floor%20in%201979.https://www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/stevie-wonder-happy-birthday-song/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1981/01/16/25000-march-for-king/017c450c-4f16-4b15-a685-5c3664772062/https://calendar.songfacts.com/january/20/19335Stay in Touch:Visit our website.

What happens to a dream unheard? Does it calm down, like a child on the run? Or temper like a bore, and then shun? Is it silent like those who are weak? Or slick and darken over like an oily beach? Maybe it's just gagged and overthrown. Or does it get bold? Langston Hughes, who I actually had the opportunity of playing in a show once, wrote the landmark poem "A Dream Deferred" in 1951. Just twelve years later a man by the name of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., likely inspired by Hughes' wonderful poem, gave the landmark "I Have A Dream Speech" in 1963, which a great many people quote, but very few understand. Four years later in 1967, Langston Hughes died. A year later, in 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered by a crazed gunman. After he was killed, riots broke out in the streets and Langston Hughes' poem proved to be more prophetic than he had ever imagined. That dream surely did explode, and it has continued to explode, and, I can promise you, that there will be many more explosions to follow. Dr. King's death was tragic and that tragedy remains very poignant for many of us to this very day. However, King at least had his time at the pedestal. He was able to be heard by millions of people, and I am glad for that because such a mountain of a man deserves to be heard. But in the black community there are many men like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: men with purpose, men with pride, men with strength, men with intellect, men with undying talent; but none of these men have been heard. Instead these black men are told to wait their turn while democratic establishment panders to conservative and moderate white folks, the same conservative and moderate white folks who sabotaged the Build Back Better bill. You saw what happened when the dream was at least heard. You saw what happened when you killed a King. Now the people of America have made an even more foolish decision, a decision that will go down in history as the greatest betrayal the democratic establishment has ever perpetrated on the black community. White liberals, the very same white liberals that Malcolm X, also murdered by a crazed gunman, decried in his Ballot or the Bullet speech as nothing more than impostors, have once again shown their true colors. They have refused again and again and again to address the issues of a police force that is out of control. Just today there was a report of an officer who was caught helping a known criminal run a sex trafficking operation; I had that on a black news station. White liberals had nothing to say about it. The white liberals have refused to hire people of color at the same rate that they hire their white friends. Multiple studies have proven this to be true and none of these studies have been taken seriously by white liberals. White liberals have refused to protect voting rights, instead opting to promote the same bullshit line that they will get around to it once the pandemic is over. The pandemic is not going to be over anytime soon. A Business Insider article released today clearly demonstrated that vaccination rates have been artificially inflated by data collectors, and are much lower than originally thought. So the question becomes, what is keeping voters of color in the Democratic party anymore? What is their reason for staying? I can tell you right now that they "at least he's not Trump" argument will only get you so far. That motivates me to go to the polls, but it does not motivate blacks in states with voter ID laws and a lack of transportation to get to the polls. It doesn't motivate young people either, and that is your base if you are a member of the Democratic party of same. This rise in crime will not cease. You have doomed yourselves because you have refused to give people the chance to dream. You have refused to listen and so now the backlash will ensue. A man with an extraordinary mind doomed for the ordinary by no fault of his own will fight for what is rightfully his. He gets bold. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/morecontentplease/support
Regarded by many as the greatest speech of all time, preeminent King historian Dr Clayborne Carson attended the March on Washington as a 19 year old. He tells about the experience of seeing 'I Have a Dream' in person, and then provides insight into how the speech happened, the drafting process with co-writer Clarence Jones, and the brave and history making decision to jump off-script. Dr Carson also talks about King's life in a broader sense, including other speeches, and the powerhouse contribution of Coretta Scott King.

Here are the notes I read from for this episode:Stand up comediansGrowing up in 70sI thought everyone would want to lead, to give I Have A Dream speech of their generationFelt so natural, though universalSo until recently felt others could do better, wouldn't want to competeDawning on my almost nobody wants toNobody seems to want to changeI expect they'll be happy to change if they don't have to do workAfter all world has changed. Seems easy to change with itMaybe people are waiting for someone and I can or should be itCrazy for me to think nobody wants itQuestion I've asked lately: Genie Mandela choiceI thought all the people competing to be leadership gurus want to leadOr people competing to reach top of corporate ladder want to leadThey want to manage companies and organizations, maybe lead small groupsBut taking risks, maybe notI'm coming to terms with stepping up, or figuring out what that meansYears ago before starting podcast I thought about taking leadership role, realizing success meant challenging Koch brothers. Scary. I could be attacked. King, Gandhi, and others killed.Realized when opportunity to speak on Washington Mall came up, King probably didn't want to give I Have A Dream Speech. Probably thought, “Can anyone else? I guess I have to do it.”Is it crazy for me to think of taking on role like theirs. Does anyone else want to?Still figuring out how, but deciding to act more assertively. If you see ideas or opportunities I don't, please tell me.In the meantime, I see why I'm unique in finding joy in not flying by choice. Still nearly incomprehensible that people can learn how their behavior hurts others and still prefer to justify and imagine their pollution isn't.Is it so outlandish to try, and take my word that you'll be glad you changed?Is it so crazy to imagine that economists all misunderstand what finite planet means and that growth has to end, so their theories don't apply?

Highlighting topics that divide, rather than unite, we attempt to simply ask the hard questions that many today are, yet are not vocalizing. Get In The Arena!

Sam Katz Mael P.3 US History II May 2, 2017 Background on the March on Washington; The March On Washington was a giant gathered march to help protest for civil rights for African Americans. The leaders of the civil rights movement and also religious groups organized the march. More than 200.000 Americans were apart of the March on Washington D.C. This march was a huge eye opener to American citizens about the social and political damage that America was inflicting on the African American culture. This march also led to one of the most famous American speeches of all time, delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. The I Have A Dream Speech, is something that will forever be famous in American history, however what many people don’t know is that Martin Luther King Jr. was given the worst speech time slot. He delivered the final speech and it was assumed that most reporters would be gone at that point and that not many people would ever even hear the speech. Surprisingly many people heard the beautifully spoken MLK speech and it would forever be engraved into American history. There is a very famous photo from this I Have A Dream speech, showing just how many people cared about MLK and were still there to listen to him. This speech alone was enough to push many American citizens into social change. It also was enough to sway the government into making political changes involving civil rights. One act that was most likely passed because of this march was Civil Rights Act of 1964, an act that outlaws discrimination based on race or religion. This shows how much of a giant impact this march truly had on America.
Excerpt From MLK's "I Have A Dream" Speech..... I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, that one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exhalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith that I will go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.
"In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds." But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. So we have come to cash this check — a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice." Martin Luther King Jr. 1963 March On Washington a.k.a I Have A Dream Speech

Days after the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the historic “I Have A Dream Speech” and march on Washington D.C., the Boom Bap Radio crew was reunited and it felt soooo good. J-Crush, The Angry Engineer, Masta Talka and The C.O. marched their way over to the studio and overcame the holiday weekend, and their respective schedules, to reflect on the commemorative celebration in D.C. and dispelled all of the Conservative myths about not being invited to the shin dig. The crew also reflected on the looming conflict in Syria, the judicial hangover left over from the Trayvon Martin murder case, the VMA’s, DMX’s rolling bar on wheels and more. Of course Old School Hip-Hop was served up and Public Enemy, A Tribe Called Quest, Big Daddy Kane, EPMD and Nice & Smooth all gave their collective, “yes sir’s.” So, put some clothes on Miley and Ga Ga - It’s - Boom Bap Radio!

How often do you get to say Peter Yarrow from Peter, Paul, and Mary sang me a Valentine's Day Song, and so today I am Peter Yarrow's valentine. America has it's folk music and Peter Yarrow, of Peter Paul and Mary, is right there at the top. They performed at the 1963 March On Washington where Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his "I Have A Dream Speech." Never once, did I think I would ever have the opportunity to talk to someone who was actually at that march, that day. (Thank you Peter for sharing in detail what that day looked and felt like. WOW!) Peter, Paul and Mary came up at a time when they were inspired to make music that meant something socially. There was a cause, a purpose, a reason that they were doing what they were doing. It wasn't for "celebrity" like so many chase after today. I believe they recognized that they had a platform and an opportunity to affect social change in a positive way. Who really does that in music today? GaGa is the only one that is at the top of my mind. Peter published Puff The Magic Dragon a few years back, a children's book, but really loved by all. His latest book is "I'm In Love With A Big Blue Frog." In it he touches on prejudice and racial issues, hopefully this story will somehow open those little minds up and allow a new thought to be pushed in. Get the book at your local bookstore and online at amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Im-Love-Big-Blue-Frog/dp/1936140373 Peter's Operation Respect school program: www.OperationRespect.org Peter, Paul & Mary's website: www.PeterPaulandMary.com Peter's facebook: www.facebook.com/Peter-Yarrow Peter, Paul & Mary's facebook: www.facebook.com/PeterPaulandMary

TONIGHT: Listen to The African History Network Show, (Special Day) Saturday, Jan. 14th, 2012 8pm-11pm EST. We'll continue our discussion on Part 2: "The Distortion Of The Image Of African-American Women". Thursdays show was hot for Part 1 and tonight will be even better. Why does the media usually portray African-American women as being oversexed, obsessed with physical attributes like hair and makeup, obese, single, bitter, etc.? We'll discuss a recent article from The Final Call Newspaper that asks this question. We'll also discuss, "The Distortion Of The Legacy Of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." and we'll play some excerpts from our interview with Prof. Manu Ampim on this subject. You'll learn things about Dr. King that you never knew and we'll deal with why the media purposely focuses in on The "I Have A Dream Speech" but doesn't want to talk about the last 2 years of his life. The African History Network Show can be heard on Mondays and Thursdays, 8pm - 11pm EST. For more information please visit www.AfricanHistoryNetwork.com or Call In and listen at 914-338-1375.

Today is the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday. A national holiday to honor a man who did a great many things to improve race relations and conditions in the black community. I wasn't even born when his great crusade for equality was waged but today I reap the benefits of it and casually take it for granted like most of my peers. I have many causes that I feel should be marched over, but I don't do it. I still see injustice and unsettling things in our communitiy, but I still sit by in idle and just try to survive. I have my own little personal crusades, but long gone are the people who championed our causes and risked life and limb for the rights of people they don't know. We have a few local leaders, but we don't have a national face that is only a champion for causes that effect us. Barack Obama is the president of ALL Americans not just black Americans, per his own words. But we don't have a MLK in our generation, and sadly we more than likely never will. So here goes: Why don't we have leaders like MLK anymore? Do we even need a MLK in our generation? Do you think that we even have a cause that warrants a national rallying of our people that would create a need for a leader like MLK? Do you think the dream that MLK wished for has become a realization over 40 years later? If you had to give an I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH what would it say, what dreams would you like to see become reality in order to make life better in our communities and with our people? Its also Mashamuthaf***a MONDAY...your chance to vent on K-100
The castaway in this week's Desert Island Discs is the Baroness Castle of Blackburn - better known to most people as Barbara Castle. For 34 years she served as the Labour member for the constituency of Blackburn, and she rose to high office in the Wilson governments of the 1960s and 1970s. As the first woman Transport Minister, she introduced, amidst great controversy, the breathalyser and the motorway speed limit. She was also at the centre of legislation over equal pay for women. Then, 10 years ago, she opted out of domestic politics and into the European cauldron.Now retired from that too, and recently having celebrated her 80th birthday, she'll be looking back over her long and passionate political career, and forward to making her mark on the House of Lords.[Taken from the original programme material for this archive edition of Desert Island Discs] Favourite track: I Have A Dream Speech by Martin Luther King Book: The collected works by William Morris Luxury: Typewriter
