Podcasts about Liberation

What if your birthday wasn't just a celebration—but a call to go? This week on We Ain't Dying For This, we're talking about Wandering as Liberation with my good Sis, Natasha Wade. And babyyyy, it's not just a cute little travel story. Sis packed up her car and hit the road—solo. No set plan, just a deep need to feel free. She wandered to places where Black stories live, where liberation was fought for, where healing could meet her. And somewhere along the highways and history, she met herself again. And you know what? She didn't need permission from anyone but herself. This week's episode is a mirror for anyone who's ever felt stuck, stifled, or like freedom is on the other side of a map they haven't drawn yet.

This deeply personal and emotional episode features Danielle, a cherished client of my coaching program. The conversation highlights her impressive growth through emotional healing, relationship transformation, and personal empowerment, especially after ending a toxic relationship. Danielle began coaching when she was in a manipulative and emotionally abusive relationship with a man who resented her financial success. Despite having wealth and a supportive family background, she struggled with self-worth, especially around romantic partners. Her patterns included "project men" – dating men she wanted to fix or help, often at the cost of her own needs, happiness, and boundaries. In this exquisitely vulnerable and honest conversation, we also discussed... -How she has truly healed through coaching with me and has begun to see how her childhood dynamics and subconscious beliefs were driving her relationship patterns. -Her new, conscious relationship. She is now in a healthier, emotionally aware relationship with someone from her past who has also begun personal growth work. -The Power of emotional integration and how deep emotional wounds from over a decade ago were still affecting her behavior until addressed in the PSI Immersions with Allana. -How integrating trauma stored in her body helped her shift from people-pleasing and silence to assertiveness and self-respect. -Her ability to feel emotions fully – joy, grief, and everything in between – is now something she values. -Danielle is a rock star. Her story is one of courage, deep inner work and the transformation to be expected when you do the deep PSI work. -Through Allana's coaching and her own determination, she reclaimed her voice, healed past trauma, and now lives with more integrity, self-love, and joy. ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!   Schedule your Intimacy Breakthrough Experience with me today https://allanapratt.com/connect Scholarship Code: READYNOW ________________________________________________________ ❤️ Finding the One is Bullsh*t.

Eckhart leads a meditation and then answers questions from a live audience. He says the most important thing to achieve in our lifetime is stillness because without it we feel frustrated, angry and discontent. He says stillness is the answer that brings the sense of aliveness we feel when we're free of thought.

In this timeless tale from the Katha Upanishad, a wise soul, Nachiketa, meets Yama—the Lord of Death—and asks the ultimate question: What survives when all else fades?Through deep inquiry, courage, and stillness, Nachiketa uncovers the nature of the true Self—birthless, deathless, and eternal. Anand Ji guides us through this sacred dialogue, revealing how the fire of longing (mumukshutva) and the path of wisdom (shreya) lead to inner freedom.Let this story awaken something eternal within you.For more meditative wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/www.sattvaconnect.com sattvayogaacademy.com#Liberation #storytelling #YogVedantic #AnandMehrotra #meditation #self-realisation #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #growth #unity #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga  

With so much going on these days it can be challenging to stay balanced and present for whatever shows up in our world - pleasant or unpleasant. In this talk Mary discusses the idea of joy and sorrow and the eight worldly winds as a teaching to ground us right here and be open to whatever shows up. Denying the present moment is a hallmark of dukkha and our path is to move away from that dukkha. Recorded July 26, 2025 in the virtual worldSend me a text with any questions or comments!

Representatives for the Arms Embargo Now campaign have released a scathing report that shows Canada has been actively arming Israel as recently as July 2025.Haneen from the Palestinian Youth Movement and Rachel from World Beyond War, share details included in the report, including what kind of weapons we're sending, where they're going exactly and the routes these shipments are taking.They also provide an inside look into their methodology, their motivations and what they'd like to see happen as a result - namely a "political crisis" for the Canadian government.With this information, the activists behind the report will be helping to mobilize folks, including (hopefully) elements in Labour that have close connections to these weapons.Hosted by: Jessa McLeanCall to Action: REGISTER FOR URGENT MOVEMENT MEETINGRelated Episodes: Disrupting Canada's Arms Trade, with Rachel from World Beyond WarReturn and Liberation, a discussion with the Palestinian Youth Movement from October 2022.

Episode Overview In this episode of The Design Vault, hosts Albert Shum and Thamer Abanami explore the revolutionary TiVo digital video recorder, a product so transformative it became a verb, yet ultimately couldn't capitalize on the future it created. From the moment TiVo demonstrated pausing live TV at CES 1999, leaving journalists bewildered by this "magic trick," to its eventual relegation as a feature in cable boxes, TiVo's story exemplifies the classic innovator's dilemma. This episode reveals how two Silicon Graphics engineers created the first truly intuitive TV interface, pioneered recommendation algorithms, and invented binge-watching culture, only to watch cable companies commoditize their revolution with inferior but "barely good enough" alternatives.

What happens when someone is both neurodivergent and fat in a world that punishes difference? In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne unpacks how fatphobia and ableism intersect to create barriers in medical care, mental health treatment, and everyday life for people with ADHD, autism, PDA, and other forms of neurodivergence. She explores why fat liberation and neurodivergent rights must go hand-in-hand, and how body justice is essential—not optional—in eating disorder recovery, therapy, and community care. From sensory needs and executive functioning to the pressure to mask and shrink, this episode offers a powerful call to unlearn bias and build liberatory spaces where all bodies and minds are treated with dignity. Whether you're a fat neurodivergent person, a therapist, or someone committed to anti-oppressive care, this conversation is for you. CONTENT CAUTIONS: In this episode, Dr. Marianne discusses anti-fat bias, ableism, disordered eating, masking, and systemic oppression in medical and mental health settings. Please care for yourself as needed. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: Why fat liberation is essential to neurodivergent-affirming care How anti-fat bias and ableism reinforce each other in ADHD and autism communities What executive dysfunction, sensory needs, and masking have to do with food and body shame Why fat neurodivergent people are underdiagnosed and often dismissed by providers What therapists and support people can do to stop reinforcing stigma How to practice body autonomy and community care outside of diet culture and compliance

This week we have returning guest, Troy Valencia, on the show to share about his recent book: “Living Beyond the Mind: The End of Personal Suffering”. Troy does a lot of things- he's an author, a dad, cofounder of Iboga retreat center, Root and Wisdom, and nonprofit, Sacred Roots Foundation, he's a spiritual teacher, mentor, and coach, and he's at the tail end of his doctoral program in clinical psychology. Through Troy's life experiences and studies, he realized that not only was suffering optional, but it was a product of the mind. In this book, he blends modern psychology, Indigenous wisdom, Eastern philosophy, and direct spiritual insight to help his reader break free from suffering at its root. In a lot of ways, this interview is a continuation of Troy's first interview on the show, #59 Whispers of Liberation from Suffering, so if you want more on this topic, click here.Highlights from this Episode: - An initiation experience in Africa with the Bwiti tradition that sparked the beginning of Living Beyond the Mind- The ways in which modern psychology often falls short when it comes to helping people integrate spiritual experiences- brushing them off as depression or psychosis or other diagnoses- An exploration of practices and principles such as “mind transcendence” and “the Middle Way”- Troy's perspective on parenting rooted in spiritual awareness "Living Beyond the Mind: The End of Personal Suffering" on Amazon If you'd like to work with Troy, you can find his information at ⁠www. rootandwisdom.com⁠  ⁠You can also learn more about his non-profit at ⁠www.sacredrootsfoundation.comIf you'd like to connect with Troy on Instagram, you can find him ⁠@troyvalencia_ ⁠If you'd like to connect with me, you can find me here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with me, my current home office is called Balance Point Acupuncture.

In this special episode, originally recorded for The Liberation Chronicles, Jennifer Brown is featured in a powerful conversation about what it truly means to lead inclusively. Drawing from her signature framework, the Inclusive Leader Continuum, Jennifer discusses the four stages of inclusive leadership and emphasizes the importance of building learning-centered cultures rooted in humility, accountability, and grace. She explores how leaders can move from awareness to advocacy without shame, and why inclusive leadership is essential, not just as a DEI strategy, but as a transformative practice for navigating change, fostering trust, and shaping the future of work.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche continues the oral transmission of How to Meditate on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment (from Pabongkapa Dechen Nyingpo's Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand). He starts with “Part Six: How to develop the spiritual realizations that relate to the suffering of the lower states.” Rinpoche explains that meditating on the lower realms gives us courage to renounce meaningless activities. He shares an anecdote about Kirti Tsenshab Rinpoche, who actually experienced hell. Afterwards, Kirti Tsenshab Rinpoche was inspired to continuously chant prayers.Rinpoche continues by reading “Part Seven: Training yourself in the practice of taking refuge.” Rinpoche says that we collect enormous merit each time we take refuge. He then invites a discussion by asking whether a person who abstains from negative actions but hasn't taken refuge is a Buddhist or not? After some discussion, Rinpoche clarifies that for your action to become Buddhist, it has to be done by relying on Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha.Rinpoche elaborates that refuge may not necessarily mean reciting the prayer. Rather, it is the mental factor of having refuge in your heart by understanding that samsara is in the nature of suffering and that the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha have the qualities to liberate you from this suffering. Additionally, for Mahayana refuge, there's the extra cause of compassion for other sentient beings. Rinpoche emphasizes that these three aspects are the main components; however, reciting the refuge prayer also helps by making your refuge stronger.Rinpoche concludes by stating that refuge is the basis of all the vows. It is the door of the Buddhadharma. Without refuge, you haven't entered Buddhadharma; you are an outsider. By having refuge in your mind, in your heart, then you're an insider.From April 10 to May 10, 2004, Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave extensive teachings during the Mahamudra Retreat at Buddha House in Australia. While the retreat focused on Mahamudra, Rinpoche also taught on a wide range of Lamrim topics. This retreat marked the beginning of a series of month-long retreats in Australia. Subsequent retreats were held in 2011, 2014, and 2018, hosted by the Great Stupa of Universal Compassion in Bendigo.Find out more about Lama Zopa Rinpoche, his teachings and projects at https://fpmt.org/

Protestors who are not fans of being pepper-sprayed, handcuffed or locked up in a police cell were taught how to avoid these unsavoury events at a training event. The Protest Skills Night event, organised by Climate Liberation Aotearoa was held in Otago and aimed to show protesters how to demonstrate their points using "non-violent direct action techniques". The Country's Jamie Mackay had some strong opinions on this event. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The annual period between June 19 and July 4 in the US should be viewed as a time when we read Africana Governance formations against contemporary Social Structures that seek to oppress and restrict human possibilities. Juneteenth is a powerful, living ritual of African self-determination that remembers and reiterates freedom as a Ways of Knowing rooted in self-governance and collective memory. This stands in stark contrast to fantasies of “independence” that follow it on July 4th.This sacred corridor of time, tracing from Port 21 on Galveston Bay to Houston's Freedmen's Town and beyond, reveals and embodies African traditions of convening, storytelling, and liberation. The rituals reveal contradictions of state power—from a US citizenry terrorized by masked would-be secret police to an inversion of “states rights” arguments where fascism is rejected from the margins rather than the center, exposing the weaknesses of a system hell bent on repression.In this moment, Texas serves as a metaphor: a site of contested sovereignty where those human trafficked fought their way out of captivity, simultaneously building enduring communities and institutions despite ongoing threats. Movement and Memory efforts like the Juneteenth Legacy Project, the Houston Freedmen's Town Conservancy, and the African American History Research Library at the Gregory School activate a corridor from emancipation to freedom, centering economic, cultural and political self-determination, education, faith, and art.To engage Juneteenth is to be present, to listen deeply to people, and to speak clearly and vulnerably, because each one of us matters. In this way, Juneteenth is not only a celebration but an unyielding act of liberation by and for Black people ourselves.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim shares four powerful life principles passed down from his brother-in-law and mentor, Don Xavier, a real-life sorcerer. These wisdom nuggets, gathered from thousands of pages of notes, are meant to be quick, digestible insights that you can apply immediately for deep inner transformation. This is part one of a two-part series that goes straight to the heart of what it means to live as soul—not as ego, identity, or limitation.  From understanding how we define ourselves through our limitations, to healing the body through meditation and divine connection, Jim offers a rare glimpse into the energetic teachings that have shaped his own journey. These lessons aren't just philosophical—they're deeply practical for anyone wanting to live with greater health, clarity, and spiritual power.  Whether you're feeling stuck in old patterns or ready to step into your fullest potential, this episode will inspire you to unplug from self-sabotaging thoughts, reframe your health from the inside out, and awaken your connection to Source. Listen in and choose which of these four teachings you're ready to master now.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Know Yourself by Your Limitations (03:00) We often define ourselves more easily by our limitations than our potential—this awareness can shift everything.  Unplug From Yourself (08:50) Jim shares Don Xavier's wisdom about silencing the analytical mind and learning how to stop exhausting yourself with overthinking.  Your Body Can Handle Anything When It's at 100% (14:45) From clean food to mental clarity, a fully functioning body-mind system can endure even nature's harshest challenges.  Connect to the Divine, and Healing Happens Naturally (25:30) Jim explains why meditation and divine communion are more powerful than any external healing technique.  Choose Your Focus: Limitation or Liberation (28:45) Jim invites you to pick one of the four teachings and master it—because where your attention goes, transformation follows.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You don't need dozens of spiritual tools to shift your life—just deep commitment to a single truth. Maybe it's time to stop identifying with your limitations. Or to truly let go of the inner chatter that holds you back. Perhaps your next leap is treating your body as sacred or trusting in the healing power of divine connection. Wherever you are, choose one of the four teachings Jim shares and make it your own. That choice—made again and again—will transform your life from the inside out.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

In our world today we can chase after certificates and degrees to prove who we are and what we know. In this talk Mary reflects on the words of Ajahn Chah who says that these are only "appendages". "We think they are real and we carry them around with us" to prove who we are. Instead, we are invited to turn inwards and allow our inner wisdom to arise. This takes effort, a dedication to the practice, and seeking the advice of those who have walked the path, but, as the Buddha said, we can find our own way with these teachings.Recorded July 19, 2025 in the virtual worldSend me a text with any questions or comments!

Performance begins to be valued more than one's presence. People become things.  To be an example to others, the true self is isolated. Secrets sap one's passion and purpose.    These pitfalls can destroy careers, friendships, reputations, marriages and families—unless one is freed from them.    Out of the Pit Hopeful Truths: Freedom is not only possible; we are created for it. The descent into the Pitfalls can be stopped at any time. When the leader who is descending into the pitfalls experiences an intervention from others whom the leader listens to and healthily responds to, the descent can be stopped. Also, if the leader comes to an awareness of his/her descent and cries out and is heard and responded to by others, the descent can be stopped.  There is a path that takes us out of the Pit; we can ascend. Freedom is not only possible;  we are created for it. The people who dare to “come back to life” are some of the greatest blessers in this world: They have humility and passion.  They have compassion because of empathy. They are doers who are relational.  They are witnesses to what God can do with a person who dares to be in need. Their “loss” can become many others' gains. They are witnesses of John Newton's hymn, Amazing Grace.   That which we think has destroyed us has opened up a future before us. Listen to Episode #26 “Becoming a Portable Sanctuary.   The woundedness of the leader, coordinated with their healing, becomes the leader's newly discovered productivity.   Liberation from bondage is available. If there is breath, there is hope.    Recovery from addiction to control begins with: Confession: the recognition of and “fessing up” to being human, which means that I feel and I need more than I can handle or manage without relational help. Admission:  The acknowledgment of powerlessness over life  The profound awareness that the more I have attempted to do it alone, the more unmanageable my life has become.  In these two beginning steps, the impaired leader must admit the specific nature of his/her secrets in order to get relief.    Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

Black self-determination and liberation requires a holistic and strategic integration of political power, cultural memory, and economic self-determination. Across a week of reflection, convenings, and engagement, from Birmingham's Civil Rights Historical District to Atlanta's Sweet Auburn Avenue to Daytona's Paul Laurence Dunbar House and Wilberforce Ohio's National Afro American Museum and Cultural Center, we center the urgency of reclaiming and redefining learning, community, citizenship, institution building and governance on African terms.The Ballot represents more than just voting, though that is an essential element of civic participation: It symbolizes collective potential power. The long fight against voter suppression is revealed by the fracturing myth of inclusion within a settler colonial state to be a potent weapon for realizing collective power. As W.E.B. Du Bois and others demonstrate, the struggle for political power is communitarian, not individualist—and the US South remains a battleground, not of defeat, but of underutilized potential.The Book highlights the liberatory role of education, historical memory, and cultural knowledge. Case studies of figures like Martin Delany show how Black communities must resist erasure and re-center themselves as global actors in a world system undergoing transformation. Reclaiming narratives that fostering an understanding of internal governance formations is necessary to recover agency.The Buck calls for an economic awakening—exposing capitalism's lie of meritocracy and the theft of public wealth. Reimagining collective economics through community interdependence, strategic ownership, and global solidarity becomes a compelling path forward. From the ruins of racial capitalism, a new economic ethos must emerge, rooted in mutual aid and sovereignty.Voting, reading, and spending must be done with vision and unity. “We'll find a way, or make one” is not merely a slogan—it's a generational imperative in the ongoing struggle to complete the unfinished work of Black freedom and transformation.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, I sit down with Zenobia Morrill, Ph.D., who shares her journey into psychotherapy—from a personal confrontation with existential truth to navigating her family's intergenerational pain. Dr. Morrill reflects on her early experiences as a therapy client, where she encountered traditional frameworks that often fell short, approaches that pathologized pain while ignoring the broader systemic and historical forces at play. Grounded in liberation psychology and critical theory, Dr. Morrill offers a compelling critique of mainstream psychological models that individualize suffering and overlook the impact of power, politics, and culture. We explore how psychotherapy can become a tool for liberation, not by reinforcing institutional norms, but by creating space to challenge and reimagine them in service of opening up possibilities for personhood. Dr. Morrill shares how critical-liberation psychotherapy offers practitioners a framework to question how therapeutic practices may either reinforce alienation or open new paths toward freedom, healing, and fuller participation in society. She reflects on the importance of broadening our range of being, reclaiming repressed parts of the self, and bridging individual pain to collective emancipation. Therapy, she argues, must move beyond static formulations and recognize that social, political, and cultural forces are already present in the room—they are not “add-ons” but essential to the client's lived experience. This approach does not suggest liberation occurs solely within the therapy room, but asks how the institution of therapy itself—its theories, method, and practices—can be used to support liberatory outcomes. Ultimately, Dr. Morrill calls on therapists to resist objectification of clients and of therapy itself—and to reimagine psychotherapy as a dynamic, relational, and contextually grounded space for transformation. Zenobia Morrill, Ph.D., is a critical-liberation psychologist and psychology professor at William James College. She received her doctorate from the University of Massachusetts Boston and completed her pre- and post-doctoral fellowship at the Yale School of Medicine and at Yale Health, Mental Health & Counseling, respectively. Inspired by her personal and professional experiences with the mental health system, Dr. Morrill emphasizes the power in psychological frameworks as the stories we use to understand ourselves, and the risks presented when these frameworks cannot capture the complex existential, sociocultural, familial, physiological, and tacit dimensions of humanity. Her work centers on the belief that psychological healing must account for these broader meaning systems and political structures that shape individual experience. Her research and clinical interests include psychotherapy process, global mental health, qualitative methodology, theory and philosophy, and critical and liberation psychologies. A recipient of the American Psychological Association's Sigmund Koch Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology, Dr. Morrill's work and Critical-Liberation Psychotherapy model have been recognized and presented internationally.

God Always Wins: Saving Grace Through Divine Liberation In Today's Take Your Power Back Show, host Kim Yeater confronts a critical question: MEDICAL DECEPTION: Should You Place Your Faith in God or Government? Our title, God Always Wins: Saving Grace Through Divine Liberation, draws from Rev. Dr. Robert A. Schuller's powerful book and Scott Schara's fight for his daughter Grace, a 19-year-old with Down syndrome killed by hospital protocols during COVID-19. We're exposing a disturbing truth: medical murder and government deception are real. Paul Harvey's prophetic speech, “If I Were the Devil, a warning that echoes today's crisis. outlines how the devil would erode society through deception, division, and eroded faith, echoed in Schuller's book.) The loss of Scott Schara's lawsuit against Ascension St. Elizabeth Hospital (June 2025) is a setback for families seeking justice for medical murder during COVID-19. Listen in and hear how you can take your power back in the midst of great adversity and disappointment.   Kim Yeater-Take Your Power Back Showhttps://KimYeater.com https://www.TakeYourPowerBackShow.com Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/TakeYourPowerBackShow Live Stream: https://rumble.com/TakeYourPowerBackShow/livePodcast Platforms: https://takeyourpowerbackshow.buzzsprout.com Patriot TV:  https://patriot.tv/take-your-power-back/  X @realkimyeaterFB kimberlyyeater & TakeyourpowerbackshowIG Takeyourpowerback_kimyeaterT takeyourpowerbackshow All Media Inquiry here: TYPBProducer@gmail.comTakeOurCaliforniaBack.com Take Our Border Backhttps://TakeOurBorderBack.

“Gaslighting” is the psychological manipulation of individuals or groups into questioning their reality, memory, or sanity—often to maintain control. In a week of continuing mounting chaos in US politics marked by the meeting of the National Organization of Black County Officials in Birmingham, we can recognize that both colonialism and American institutions have gaslit Black communities into believing that our cultures, languages, and histories are inferior.New Ancestor Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o's work explains how elites from would-be oppressed groups are often recruited into tempering mass liberation movements through mental colonization in language, law, politics and economics, enabling forms of structural oppression masked as deep democracy.The critique extends to today's struggles, from myths of meritocracy to distortions of Black identity and potential power in education and demography. While selective buying campaigns remain powerful in moments, the example of Alabama's A.G. Gaston underscores that building movements anchored by independent Black institutions—banks, schools, businesses—is essential for generating sustainable power.These examples also challenge strands of Black radicalism that suffer from ideological gaslighting, leading them to reject economic self-determination and political pragmatism in favor of ideological purity—undermining efforts to deliver material gains for the poor.Real liberation requires long-view strategies, rooted in cultural self-determination, global awareness, and networked community infrastructure—not just litigation or protest, but power gleaned from purposeful creation. This is an antidote to being manipulated and trying to govern by gaslight.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if your birthday wasn't just a celebration—but a call to go? This week on We Ain't Dying For This, we're talking about Wandering as Liberation with my good Sis, Natasha Wade. And babyyyy, it's not just a cute little travel story. Sis packed up her car and hit the road—solo. No set plan, just a deep need to feel free. She wandered to places where Black stories live, where liberation was fought for, where healing could meet her. And somewhere along the highways and history, she met herself again. And you know what? She didn't need permission from anyone but herself. This week's episode is a mirror for anyone who's ever felt stuck, stifled, or like freedom is on the other side of a map they haven't drawn yet.

Awakened Tales invites you into the timeless tradition of sacred storytelling rooted in the Yog-Vedantic path. Guided by Anand Ji, each episode is a journey through powerful narratives drawn from India's living oral tradition. These stories do more than entertain—they transmit deep wisdom, awaken insight, and connect us to the source intelligence that flows through the ancient teachings. Embrace each tale to stir the eternal within you.In this opening episode, Anand Ji shares the tale of King Janaka and Sage Sukhdeva—revealing timeless wisdom on detachment, inner freedom, and true spiritual maturity. Through their story, we are reminded that liberation isn't about renouncing the world, but about letting go of our attachments to it. The path is not outward (bahirmukhi), but inward (antarmukhi).“Liberation is not what you leave behind, but rather what you do not cling to. It is not possessions which are limitation, but rather the attachment to possessions.” Anand Ji For more meditative wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com sattvayogaacademy.comwww.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/#storytelling #YogVedantic #AnandMehrotra #meditation #self-realisation #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #growth #unity #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga

On Monday, May 19, 2025, we mark the 100th birthday of Malcolm X—a centennial honoring a life shaped by self-transformation, Black self-determination, and an unwavering commitment to global liberation. His words and actions continue to challenge systems rooted in white supremacy, now desperately clinging to power through international self-dealing, global realignments, and domestic attacks on voting rights, birthright citizenship, and national identity.Since his assassination in 1965, one question persists: What would Malcolm say now? From The Autobiography to ongoing efforts to define—and redefine—his legacy, from dialogues with elders, organizers, artists, and scholars, we remember Malcolm not just as a man, but as representative of an ongoing, unfinished movement.As explored in many sessions of In Class with Carr, Malcolm taught us to witness—and to act. White nationalism's violent death rattle is not a moment for silence. As Malcolm said: you don't make peace with injustice. You finish the job.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hal Urban grew up in a poor family hit hard by the Great Depression. Joining the military meant he would finally get three meals per day. He enlisted in the Army hoping to become a pilot, but less than perfect eyesight scuttled those dreams. He was trained on .50 caliber guns mounted on haltracks to protect American tanks and other convoys. Assigned to the 11th Armored Division, Urban arrived in Europe in late 1944 and was quickly sent to fight in the Battle of the Bulge.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Sgt. Urban explains what combat was like with his guns - the sounds, the smells and more. He also describes the bitter cold at the Battle of the Bulge and how that impacted him. Urban tells us how he was injured and missed the final days of the Bulge but returned to his unit after the battle.Urban details what he saw during the liberation of Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria near the end of the war and how that experience remains very vivid by meeting people who were liberated and returning to the camp years later.

Across political, social, and spiritual spheres, humanity faces a reckoning with the structures of power that shape our world—and the urgent need to turn from putting our faith in unreliable actors in favor of putting our faith in ourselves and responding to oppression with collective action.The recent acquittal of the police officer killers of Tyre Nichols, Donald Trump's continued assaults on both international institutions and domestic democratic norms, and the rising threat of regional international wars are all points of entry for deeper reflection on the meaning of collective human purpose—focusing on broad movements for liberating social change despite the constant noise of daily events. Against this backdrop, the selection of Pope Leo XIV (Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost) as the leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics raises a pressing question: How can moments that command the attention of billions signal a renewed call to renegotiate the foundations of the modern world order?At this critical juncture—amid the accelerating decline of the Age of Europe and White World Supremacy and the emergence of truly multipolar global relationships—even faith, whether in the divine or in each other, can feel insufficient. But history reminds us that, while individuals alone cannot dismantle entrenched institutions, people acting together can. As U.S. courts begin to challenge the most flagrantly illegal acts of federalized white nationalism, and as institutions such as markets and universities resist authoritarian pressure, more and more people are turning to the most potent force in any society: collective action. Whether through town halls, protests, or civil disobedience, communities are rising up.As this commencement season—a time of hope and renewal—unfolds, we are reminded of a timeless truth: belief must be made real through action.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On the surface, one of the most unattractive things about Christianity to our culture today is its view of sex; but if you look underneath the surface and get a better grasp on what is really taught, the Christian view of sex is one of the most attractive things about it. In other words, a lot of people see the Christian understanding of sex as undermining its credibility to them, but when you look down deeper, I think you're actually going to see the Christian view of sex is one of the evidences for its truth. Because Christianity accounts for how sex operates in our lives, in our relationships, and in our society. Let's draw out four things Jesus is saying about this in the Sermon on the Mount: 1) there is such a thing as lust, 2) what it's not, 3) what it is, and 4) how it can be healed. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 25, 1999. Series: The Mount; Life in the Kingdom. Scripture: Matthew 5:27-30.
