Podcasts about just peace

This episode of Speaking Out of Place is being recorded on May 15, 2025, the 77th anniversary of the 1948 Nakba, which began the ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land. We talk with Lara Elborno, Richard Falk, and Penny Green, three members of the Gaza Tribunal, which is set to convene in Saravejo in a few days.  This will set in motion the process of creating an archive of Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people with an aim to give global civil society the tools and inspiration it needs to further delegitimize Israel, end its genocidal acts, help bring about liberation for the Palestinian people.Lara Elborno is a Palestinian-American lawyer specialized in international disputes, qualified to practice in the US and France.

As we mark the anniversary of the October 7 attacks, the Israeli government has brought the Middle East to the brink of war. Backed by the West, Israel's genocide in Gaza continues, and the conflict has expanded to fronts like Lebanon. Israeli actions in Iran and Lebanon have escalated tensions, drawing in Tehran. The humanitarian toll is immense, with over 40,000 Palestinians killed and millions displaced. Yet, despite widespread protests, particularly in Europe, activism has not stopped the war or changed policy. Israel continues with the full support of the US, Germany, and other Western governments. How did we get here? What could a wider war mean for the region and beyond? How should we assess activist strategies moving forward? Join Yanis Varoufakis, Wieland Hoban (Jewish Voice for a Just Peace), Lucas Febraro (BDS), activist and academic Nour Hariri, and more as we discuss the conflict, activism, and the path ahead.

Charged by the United Nations General Assembly to ascertain the legality of the continued presence of Israel, as an occupying Power, in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, on July 19th, 2024, the International Court of the Justice, the highest court in the world on matters of international law, determined that “The Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem and the regime associated with them have been established and are being maintained in violation of international law.” It called for the end of the Occupation, the dismantling of the apartheid structure that supports and maintains it, and the removal of Israeli settlers and settlements. All member states of the United Nations are obligated to support each of these actions. Israel's response to this comprehensive and devastating report has been to dismiss it and hold itself above international law. In so doing it has sealed its reputation as a pariah state in the global community of nations.In today's special episode of Speaking Out of Place, we are honored to have eminent legal scholars Diana Buttu and Richard Falk join us to explain the significance of this historic document.Diana Buttu Haifa-based analyst, former legal advisor to Palestine Liberation Organization and Palestinian negotiators, and Policy Advisor to Al-Shabaka: The Palestinian Policy Network.  She was also recently a fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.After earning a law degree from Queen's University in Canada and a Masters of Law from Stanford University, Buttu moved to Palestine in 2000.

The subject of Just War, or Justum Bellum, is a frequent topic in these podcasts. If, however, the only acceptable justification for any war is to establish a more just and lasting peace, shouldn't there be a similar framework for Just Peace, or Justum Pacem? Just War theory goes back to Plato and Aristotle, but Just Peace thinking is a product of the last century. Despite a lack of concrete formulation, past examples of successful post-conflict transitions included efforts to establish a just peace. Sadly, there are more examples of unjust peace, which -- as Immanuel Kant noted -- plants the seeds of future war.   Music: Liszt, Les Preludes, perfomed by the USMC Band.

GUEST OVERVIEW: The ongoing massacre in Gaza brings out the worst in many countries of the rules based order. German politics as well as the civil society show their true colors once more and what emerges does not look good, rather fascist. When the German Jewish Voice for a Just Peace in the Middle East tried to present an impressive panel of speakers at a congress in Berlin, among them Yanis Varoufakis, the distinguished medical doctor and rector of the Glasgow University Ghassan Abu Sitar and the 88 year old historian Salman Abu Sittah, they were met by official bans to enter Germany, have their speeches streamed and a raid by hundreds of policemen on the congress building. The Jewish Voice for a Just Peace is one of the most capable organizations for a real dialogue with Palestinians. Dirk Pohlmann speaks with Chair Weiland Hoban, a composer, translator and an impressive voice of reason - who is under constant vicious attack.

This week on Voices Radio we're joined by Pastor Kelvin Sauls from Clergy for Black Lives.

The volatile situation in Gaza has been grossly distorted in the mainstream western press. By omission, selective editorializing, and misstatement of so-called “facts,” a particular caricature has emerged that has invisibilized the Palestinian people, the history and the nature of the Occupation, and the actual conditions of life in what many have called the world's largest open air prison. To get a better sense of all of these, we speak with two seasoned experts on Palestine.After our conversation with Diana Buttu and Richard Falk, we conclude this episode with statements of solidarity with the Palestinian people from activists, scholars, and cultural workers from around the world: the Birzeit University Union of Professors and Employees Occupied Palestine; activist and scholar Cynthia Franklin, a long-time champion for Palestinian and other Indigenous peoples' rights; renown Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg scholar, writer, and artist Leanne Betasamosake Simpson, who has been widely recognized as one of the most compelling Indigenous voices of her generation; celebrated feminist scholar, philosopher, and public intellectual Sara Ahmed; Michael Hardt, eminent political philosopher and writer; award-winning poet, scholar and long-time civil rights and anti-Zionist Hilton Obenzinger; legendary abolitionist feminist activist, writer, and scholar Angela Y. Davis.  Following Angela Davis we have a statement from the Raha Iranian Feminist Collective read by scholar Manijeh Moradian, and then a statement from the Palestine Writes Literary Festival, read by executive director and celebrated novelist, Susan Albuhawa.We then solicited statements from others, and received several immediately, with more coming in daily. We will update this podcast and add contributions as they arrive and as we can process them. We invite you to listen to them as you can, and to join in our commitment to Palestinian life, freedom, and land.Diana Buttu is a  Haifa-based analyst, former legal advisor to Palestine Liberation Organization and Palestinian negotiators, and Policy Advisor to Al-Shabaka: The Palestinian Policy Network.  She was also recently a fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.After earning a law degree from Queen's University in Canada and a Masters of Law from Stanford University, Buttu moved to Palestine in 2000.

If you can afford it, buying organic food is definitely ‘on trend' at the moment and is a ‘wellness' activity that many people aspire too. It also feels like you're making the best choice for feeding you and your family. Pesticides and conventional farming definitely sound ‘bad' when you start to delve into the world of buying organic produce. It might sound like a good idea but what does the science actually say about buying organic food? Let's take a look. Life's too short to live with food stress, to become a habit builder and not a crash dieter check out Kate's course at Healthy Eating Hub   Scientific Article: Organic Food: Buying More Safety or Just Peace of Mind?

Sam Goldman (@samanthagoldm19) talks with Rose Marie Berger about the strategy and power of non-violent resistance as we count down the days to the 2020 election and resist Trump's coup. Find further resources for non-violence trainings linked from Sojourners magazine. Then, Sam outlines some of the important plans posted on RefuseFascism.org for this weekend and the critical days next week during and after the election. Rose Marie Berger, senior editor at Sojourners magazine, is a Catholic peace activist and poet. Her article “Seven concrete steps to safeguard the integrity of the vote” in the November issue of Sojourners magazine, along with “In the Event of Tainted Election, the Faith Community Must Rise Up” by Barbara Williams-Skinner and Adam Russell Taylor, focuses on post-election defense of the vote and strategic nonviolence in the event of a power grab by either presidential candidate. As part of the Catholic Nonviolence Initiative, a project of Pax Christi International to return nonviolence to the heart of the Catholic Church, Rose co-edited Advancing Nonviolence and Just Peace in the Church and World. Her most recent book of poetry is Bending the Arch: Poems.

Heather recounts her involvement in historical moment of the Civil Rights Movements, and shares how those experienced helped to shaped the trajectory of her lifework to address the inequities of those who are less fortunate. Heather is the founder and editor of the "Justice Initiative," and co-producer of the "Just Peace" program on the WRFG-FM (89.3FM), a community radio station in Atlanta, Georgia. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology from Emory University and Georgia State University, and a Master's Degree in Sociology from Georgia State University. Heather has been involved in regional, national and international organizing work, research, advocacy and peace and justice issues since the 1960's.

Kelly Lundeen was a founder of Just Peace from the Chippewa Valley back in 2001, spent time in Milwaukee at the Casa Maria Catholic Worker House, which led her to do accompaniment work in Columbia as part of the International Peace Observatory. But her work recently, back in Wisconsin, has been as a mother of 3 and as staff for Nukewatch, working for a nuclear-free future since 1979.

Judy Coode is the project coordinator for the Catholic Nonviolence Initiative (CNI) and a staff member of Pax Christi International. She organized two conferences at the Vatican on Just Peace and Nonviolence (in 2016 and 2019), the first of which was likely a major impetus for Pope Francis writing his World Peace Day message in 2017: "Nonviolence: A Style of Politics for Peace." She joins us to tell us about the goals and outcomes of those two conferences, to answer a few critics, and to talk about where the Initiative will go from here. 0:00 Judy's background2:12 Link between 2016 conference and the 2017 World Peace Day message5:20 Idea behind 2016 conference7:44 Unique "fishbowl" set-up for plenary conferences11:12 Beyond academics and theologians15:53 Vocabulary lesson17:12 April 2019 conference21:02 Where does CNI stand on Just War Theory? 22:52 Is this just another kooky "Pope Francis thing"? 25:37 Judy responds to a critic of the Initiative33:06 A message about nonviolence35:06 Ellen has a message for the Pope!41:06 What's next for CNI?

The Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs and The Samir Kassir Foundation held a lecture and discussion The Global Rise of Populism, Trumpism, and the Decline of U.S. Leadership Richard Falk Professor Emeritus of International Law at Princeton University​ Moderator: Ayman Mhanna Director of the Samir Kassir Foundation The last decade has witnessed the rise of populist politics in many important states throughout the world. This has resulted in democratically elected autocrats, the most dangerous instance of which is the election of Donald Trump. Among the early effects on U.S. global leadership are the withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on Climate Change and the buildup of anti-Iran tensions in the Middle East. As disturbing as Trump is what might be called "Trumpism," a series of ultra-nationalist revolts against the failures of neoliberal globalization. Richard Falk is the Albert G. Milbank Professor of International Law Emeritus at Princeton University, where he taught for forty years (1961- 2001). He is currently Research Professor with the Global & International Studies Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Professor Falk has been the Special Rapporteur on occupied Palestine for the United Nations Human Rights Council since 2008. He has published more than 50 books in the fields of international law, politics, and UN affairs. His most recent books are: Achieving Human Rights (2009); a co-edited volume entitled Legality and Legitimacy in Global Affairs (2012); Global Parliament (with Andrew Strauss, 2011); Path to Zero: Dialogues on Nuclear Dangers (2012). Waiting for Rainbows (poems) (2015); Power Shift: On the New Global Order (2016); co-edited, Exploring Emergent Global Thresholds: Towards 2030 (2017); Palestine's Horizons: Toward a Just Peace (2017).

Pastor Megan preaches the final in our Just Peace series, reflecting on Jesus' teaching to pray for and love our enemies, and telling a story of the prayerful communing of tea-drinking in Israel-Palestine.

Pastor Amy continues our series on Just Peace with a sermon that highlights the community-ist vision of the early church and challenges us to communal and individual discernment of how we share resources. We are particularly challenged to think about our heritage as settlers on indigenous lands and how relationship accompanied by reparations might be a way toward a Just Peace ‘that all might live in dignity.’

...so that all may live free from fear. Pastor Jonathan preaches the first in a 4-week series on Just Peace, based on the 4 pillars established in the World Council of Churches document, "An Ecumenical Call to Just Peace." Can anything at all new be said about the Parable of the Good Samaritan?? Indeed! Check it out...

Sometimes, we are tempted to stop listening, to talk amongst ourselves, and to avoid proclamation. But Jesus calls us to proclaim the good news, to liberate the oppressed, to declare Jubilee. What does that look like for us?
