In this episode, Fr. John Dear joins me to explore his latest book, Universal Love: Surrendering to the God of Peace and one of the core convictions at the center of it: genuine peacemaking begins not with better strategy or more effort, but with total surrender to the God of peace, to the will of God. We talk about what it looks like to take the Sermon on the Mount seriously, why following the non-violent Jesus is the way, and how the daily practice of "not my will, but yours" carries not only inner transformation, but political implications that go all the way to the streets.Fr. John Dear is an American peace activist, lecturer, author and Catholic priest residing in the Diocese of Monterey in California. Dear has written 40 books on Jesus, peace and nonviolence, and has been arrested 85 times in acts of nonviolent civil disobedience against war, injustice, poverty, racism, executions, nuclear weapons, and environmental destruction. He is the founder and director of the Beatitudes Center, where he offers the "Nonviolent Jesus Podcast". Fr.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Kevin Cohee.Title: Owner, Chairman & CEO of OneUnited BankHost: Rushion McDonaldPodcast: Money Making Conversations Masterclass Kevin Cohee discusses the mission, history, and future of OneUnited Bank, the largest Black‑owned bank and the first Black‑owned internet bank in the U.S. The conversation connects Black economic history, financial literacy, technology (AI), and wealth-building, positioning OneUnited Bank as a modern solution to long‑standing financial exclusion in Black and underserved communities. Purpose of the Interview The interview is designed to: Educate listeners on why Black-owned banks matter historically and economically. Explain how technology has transformed banking, making location irrelevant. Address financial exclusion, particularly reliance on check-cashing services. Promote financial literacy as the foundation of wealth creation. Position OneUnited Bank as a practical, accessible tool for individuals, entrepreneurs, and communities to build equity. Key Themes & Takeaways 1. A Mission Rooted in Black History Kevin Cohee frames OneUnited Bank as part of a long historical vision, not a modern trend. Leaders such as Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. all advocated for a national Black-owned bank. Cohee’s own family legacy ties back to Black Wall Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, including land ownership stemming from negotiated “40 acres and a mule” outcomes. Takeaway: Economic independence has always been central to Black progress. 2. From Brick-and-Mortar to Digital Banking OneUnited originally grew by acquiring small Black-owned banks nationwide. The bank pivoted early toward technology-driven banking, recognizing that: Customers expect 24/7 access Physical branches are no longer required Digital reach enables national—and global—impact Key insight: Technology allowed OneUnited to become a national Black bank without national branches. 3. Financial Technology Built for Real-Life Problems Kevin Cohee emphasizes that OneUnited designs products around how people actually live, not just traditional banking norms. Examples include: Second-chance checking accounts Emergency small-dollar loans Alternative credit criteria Nationwide surcharge-free ATM access AI-powered tools that help users understand: Cash flow Assets vs. liabilities Net worth (or debt) Financial decision-making in real time Takeaway: Banking should help people function—not punish them for past mistakes. 4. Financial Literacy Is the Real Wealth Gap Cohee states that 90% of Americans are financially illiterate, largely because: Financial literacy is not taught in K–12 education He compares this to not teaching reading—and then blaming people for illiteracy. OneUnited uses AI and data aggregation to help customers make expert-level decisions without being experts. Key message: Financial literacy, not income alone, determines long-term wealth. 5. Ending Dependence on Check-Cashing Services Kevin sharply criticizes high-fee check-cashing businesses that dominate underserved neighborhoods. OneUnited offers digital check deposits, debit cards, and ATM access—removing the need for physical branches. Anyone, anywhere in the U.S., can bank with OneUnited via oneunited.com. Takeaway: Lack of access is no longer an excuse—awareness is the missing link. 6. Technology as the New “40 Acres” Kevin draws a powerful parallel: Land ownership was once the primary source of wealth. Technology and financial literacy are today’s equivalents. Entrepreneurs no longer need to manufacture products—branding, distribution, and digital reach are the new leverage. Key insight: Technology levels the playing field—if people understand how to use it. 7. Mandatory Financial Literacy as a Policy Solution Kevin advocates for required financial literacy courses in all U.S. schools. He cites research showing: One required high-school financial literacy course can generate $100,000+ in lifetime net worth per student. He frames this as a matter of equity, not preference. Takeaway: Systemic problems require systemic solutions. Notable Quotes “The concept of a national Black-owned bank goes all the way back to slavery.” “We’re not behind in technology—we are the party.” “Ninety percent of Americans are not financially literate.” “You don’t have to go to check cashers and get ripped off.” “Technology is the new 40 acres.” “Financial literacy alone can generate over $100,000 in net worth per person.” “There has never been a better time to build a business than right now.” Overall Impact This interview is both a financial masterclass and a historical lesson. Kevin Cohee reframes banking as a tool of empowerment, not just transactions, and positions OneUnited Bank as: A modern solution to historic exclusion A technology-first institution built for underserved communities A catalyst for financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and wealth creation Final message: Access + education + technology can finally close the racial wealth gap—if people choose to engage. #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Street Soldiers Radio is honoring Gun Violence Awareness day and month by having a conversation with Samantha Zinober of Moms Demand Action. We also celebrat the incredible life and legacy of Clarence B. Jones, lawyer and speech writer for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who passed away May 22.

Some of the greatest writings in history were written from prison—like Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail, John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, and Nelson Mandela's Autobiography. The Apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians is no different, but most people have never heard of it. Written from a Roman prison to a church he started in Philippi, Philippians is a short letter full of brilliant theology, no-nonsense wisdom, and tattoo-worthy one-liners that has sparked joy, resilience, humility, and more in the church ever since.

After surviving poverty, racism, violence, and a near-fatal beating, John Perkins chose a path few people ever would: forgiveness. This Shop Talk explores the life of one of America's most influential Christian leaders and his radical vision for building what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called "the beloved community."Support the show: https://www.normalfolks.us/#joinSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Darrell Castle talks about the resignation of Tulsi Gabbard from her position as Director of National Intelligence, and why she made the decision to resign. Was it because of her husband’s illness or something else. Transcription / Notes TULSI'S GONE Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 29th day of May in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about the resignation of Tulsi Gabbard from her position as Director of National Intelligence, and about why Tulsi made the decision to resign. Was her decision because of her husband's illness or was it something else. Tulsi never seemed to fit into Washington like a typical Washington politician. She never seemed willing to lie and cheat her way to the top as is typical of Washington. From the beginning of her prominence, she seemed a little too honest and too forthright for Washington politics. Nevertheless, she was a politician having served as a Democrat in congress from the state of Hawaii. She left congress and ran for president as a Democrat but lost in the primary to Joe Biden. She became disenchanted with the Democrat Party and decided to back President Trump in his run for that office. President Trump appointed her Director of National Intelligence, in theory the most important national security position in the country. The U.S. now has 18 intelligence agencies or departments if you count their various components and they all report to the Director of National Intelligence, but once in the office I imagine that the DNI found out who holds the real power in the intelligence world. When I learned a few weeks ago that the CIA had apparently broken into, raided, or whatever you want to call the CIA's visit to their boss's office, I knew Tulsi would soon be gone. Whistleblower James Erdman blew his whistle in congress and testified that the CIA had “seized” documents from their secure area in the office of the DNI. Some of the files they seized related to the assassination, or perhaps their assassination, of JFK. They apparently also took the files related to MKULTRA which was and probably is the CIA's experimental program designed to alter and control human behavior through the use of mind-altering drugs and torture. They sought to and apparently did learn the art of mind control including control of whole populations through these experiments. There are people who exist now who are suing the CIA in an effort to get some answers to the questions of what happened to their minds and the minds of their parents because of MKULTRA. That's not all they got because apparently they got the files on “Havana Syndrome” in which U.S. diplomats and others stationed in Havana and other places were apparently subjected to some kind of mind-altering rays. In response to the CIA raid, Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) and James Comer (R-KY) chairman of the house Oversight Committee, sent a preservation letter to the CIA demanding that all evidence related to the taken or stolen material be preserved. I imagine the CIA got a good laugh over that letter as they endeavored to show naive members of Congress who actually runs this country. Apparently someone spoke to someone and explained the facts of life as it exists in Washington because when that letter of preservation became public people started to backtrack their statements. Even Erdman, the whistleblower said no I didn't say it was a raid instead I just said CIA refused to comply with “lawful oversight and documented everts to circumvent oversight.” He testified to Congress that not only did CIA refuse to comply with the directives of the ODNI Director's Initiatives Group (DIG) investigations into the origins of COVID-19 and other “phenomena” but retaliated against those who did not support their own conclusions. Quoting long-term CIA agent Erdman, “The CIA illegally monitored the computer and phone usage of DIG personnel, their investigations, and contact with whistleblowers, which significantly impacted Director Gabbard's implementation of several Eo's issued during this administration and tasked to the DIG.” In addition, “when the DIG ceased operations, the CIA also took back 40 boxes of JFK files and MKULTRA files being processed for declassification by DNI Gabbard.” The CIA's spying was referenced as tracking every keystroke of DIG personnel as they processed files directed by presidential EO to be released or unclassified. These files included files concerning JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations, the origins of COVID-19, Crossfire Hurricane, The Biden Administration's domestic surveillance, Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI) and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. So, just speculating here folks, but trying to do it with logic I think it went something like this. The President appoints this intelligent and experienced, but most importantly honest woman to head the nation's intelligence organizations. He then says that as he campaigned on a pledge to be transparent and release long classified files he issues an Executive Order (EO) to that effect. Tulsi, his DNI, who most likely took the job based on a promise to be forthcoming, sets out to obey the President's EO. She appoints a working group from among those in the office of the DNI which she calls DIG to sort through the files to determine if there was anything that should not be released. The CIA completely ignored that  report to DNI which was Tulsi and in fact they ignore or refuse to abide by the direct written orders of the President of the United States. They break into, or raid, if that is better, her office, take the files and even congress can't get them back. My conclusion, then, is that this case reveals as clearly as anything has who or what runs this country. I knew when I heard the story of what happened and looked into it that Tulsi would not be able to remain in the administration. Who would want to be director of the office that controls American intelligence agencies, all 18 of them, if one of those agencies was completely exempt from you, their boss's orders, and apparently didn't even follow the orders of the President. So, is that why she resigned because she didn't say that it was. In fact, she didn't complain about the President's inability or unwillingness to control the CIA but instead she thanked him and the American people for the opportunity to serve. In her letter she cited her husband Abraham and his diagnosis of a “extremely rare form of bone cancer” as the reason. She said he had stood by her every step of the way including when her Army guard unit was deployed to East Africa and through her political campaigns so she wanted to be with him full-time during such a difficult time. In 18 months as DNI she restructured the office, cutting its size and saving the American people more than $700 million per year. She launched many investigations and sought the release of previously classified material related to the programs previously listed. She has declassified more than 500,000 pages thus far. Her National Counterterrorism Center stopped thousands of narco-terrorists from entering the country until finally its head, Joe Kent, publicly resigned citing the Iran war as the reason. I saw her interviewed on the Shawn Ryan Podcast the other day and she was very forthright as she normally is. She said that the people who opposed her in her efforts were very intolerant of anyone who believes in God because in their minds they are God. They are the ultimate deciders of right and wrong and their choices are never wrong because they determine what right is. If a person opposes them, even if their boss opposes them, that person is on the way out. She said that before she goes at the end of June she will release many files related to the programs in question. Likely, these files will be released in weekly installments over the weeks of June. Her deputy director, Aaron Lukas, will serve as acting director until a permanent director is appointed. I predict without knowing one way or the other that the new director will have a CIA or perhaps military, meaning ex-General background. Politicians seem to be sweating over the prospect of files related to Crossfire Hurricane or the Russia gate hoax and other weaponization of law programs. I'm just speculating because I admit I don't know but I will wager that Tulsi grew very weary of constantly trying to follow presidential directives and being stymied at every turn while doing so. That type of constant stress is very difficult to bear long term.  Why would the CIA take her JFK files along with the other assassination files. That's a good question isn't it but the answer is very obvious but unsayable in public. Yes I know the assassinations were all done by lone nuts who were killed or prosecuted without any real investigation but nothing to see here folks just move along. Finally, folks, Tulsi seems to be an intelligent, honest woman who loves her country and its people and who puts them before any political party. There aren't many left like her and I for one will miss her. I wish her well. At least that's the way I see it, Until next time folks, This is Darrell Castle, Thanks for listening.

In this episode, Breht is joined by writer, intellectual, and poet Too Black to discuss his essay "Nonviolence is Violence, Too (Part 2)—We're All in the Gunk." Together, they critically examine the liberal mythology of "nonviolence" as a pure moral alternative to violence, arguing instead that all movements operate within conditions already structured by state, colonial, racial, and imperial violence. Drawing from the Black freedom struggle, Ghana's independence movement, Kwame Nkrumah, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, the Black Panther Party, Gandhi, Indian independence, riots, armed resistance, and the "positive radical flank," Too Black shows how so-called nonviolent movements have often depended on the threat, presence, displacement, or redirection of violence in order to win concessions. Rather than offering a simplistic celebration of violence, this conversation asks us to think more honestly about power, confrontation, sacrifice, propaganda, state repression, and the real historical conditions under which oppressed people struggle to breathe beneath the boot. At its core, this is a discussion about what movements actually do, how victories are actually won, and why peace is not the absence of conflict, but something that must be fought for.   Listen to our previous discussion on Part 1 of Too Black's essay here: https://revolutionaryleftradio.libsyn.com/nonviolence-is-violence-too-somebodys-gotta-die   Subscribe to Black Myths Podcast ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

America's a funny place. It's not a country with a fixed geographic or religious identity. We don't have a common story of divine creation. "What we have," writes Ben Rhodes in his new book, ⁠All We Say⁠, "are words." The words of the founding documents, yes — but also "the words of speeches spoken by Americans who call us to be that better version of ourselves." Ben has spent more time with great American speeches than just about anyone. For eight years, he was a speechwriter in the Obama White House, crafting some of the defining oratory of the era. His new book is a 250-year tour through 15 speeches that built the country, challenged it, and raised its sights. He tells us how FDR changed the course of WWII from behind the lectern, how MLK ad-libbed one of the most famous lines in American history, and what Obama's 2008 speech about race can teach today's politicians about storytelling. And he makes the case that America needs great oratory now more than it has in a long time.

Julia is joined by 85-year-old folk legend and lifelong activist Joan Baez, who is still dancing, still showing up, and still refusing to be quiet. They talk about singing before a quarter million people at the March on Washington in 1963, what made Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. laugh, and what real courage feels like from the inside. Joan opens up about her decades-long struggle with anxiety, forgiveness, and dissociative identity disorder. Oh, and she sings. Three times. Afterwards, Julia calls her 92-year-old mom Judy — who, it turns out, was playing folk music on a portable Victrola in Sri Lanka when Julia was young.

The year was... Czechoslovakia was dissolved, creating the Czech and Slovak Republics. Martin Luther King Jr. Day became a federal holiday. What was known as the Great Blizzard took place March 12th and 13th of this year. The first World Trade Center bombing took place. The #1 song was I Will Always Love You, by Whitney Houston and if you still haven't gotten it by now...Bill Clinton was sworn in as the 42nd President of the United States.

Best selling author Anna Malaika Tubbs stops by to tell us all about her book, Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden from Us and helps us hone in on real time examples of our Patriarchy is being weaponized today. Anna unpacks how the United States has constructed a unique - and often invisible - gendered hierarchy, one that is inextricably linked to whiteness and a deeply flawed binary system. From the founding fathers to the current Supreme Court, from the erasure of women in the Constitution to the ongoing fight for the Equal Rights Amendment, Dr. Tubbs reveals the mechanisms that have kept women's contributions hidden and their voices suppressed. Anna Malaika Tubbs is a scholar, advocate, and bestselling author (The Three Mothers: How the Mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and James Baldwin Shaped a Nation) whose work brings a fresh, urgent perspective on American history and its gendered systems. With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge and a Bachelors in Medical Anthropology from Stanford University, Anna translates her academic knowledge into clear and engaging stories. Her articles have been published by TIME Magazine, New York Magazine, CNN, Motherly, The Huffington Post, For Harriet, The Guardian, Darling Magazine, and Blavity. Anna's storytelling also takes form in her talks, including her TED Talk that has been viewed 2 million times, as well as the scripted and unscripted screen projects she has in development. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, former Mayor of Stockton, CA Michael Tubbs  and their three young children.

Some of the greatest writings in history were written from prison—like Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail, John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, and Nelson Mandela's Autobiography. The Apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians is no different, but most people have never heard of it. Written from a Roman prison to a church he started in Philippi, Philippians is a short letter full of brilliant theology, no-nonsense wisdom, and tattoo-worthy one-liners that has sparked joy, resilience, humility, and more in the church ever since.

Today, on the Hudson Mohawk Magazine we take a break from our regular programming for a show about Veterans with stories from our archives. We begin with an interview with Elliot Adams, former national head of Veterans for Peace. Then, we hear from Brian Troutman about the Capital Region chapter of Veterans for Peace. Later on, Jesse Gould talks about founding the Heroic Hearts Project to spearhead the acceptance and use of psychedelic therapy as a means of addressing the current mental health crisis among veterans. After that, Lee Vartigian, Director of Vet Services at Albany Housing Coalition, speaks about fireworks as triggers for many veterans. Finally, veteran Jack Gilroy speaks about highlighting Martin Luther King Jr.'s anti-militarism message

MAY. 17, 2026You will conquer your Jericho (1)"The Lord said to Joshua: 'See! I have given Jericho into your hand.” Jos 6:2NKJVHere's what you need to know about the walls of Jericho: They were immense. They wrapped around the city like a suit of armor, forty feet above the ground. They were impenetrable. Here is what you need to know about Joshua: He didn't bring the walls down-God did. And God will do that for you too. Your Jericho is your fear, anger, bitterness, or prejudice. It's also your insecurity about the future; your guilt about the past; and your negativity, anxiety, and proclivity to criticize, over-analyze, or compartmentalize. Your Jericho is any circumstance, attitude, or mindset that keeps you from joy, peace, or rest. Jericho blocks your way, so its walls must fall! "Go in to possess the land which the Lord your God is giving you to possess" (Jos 1:11 NKJV).The verb translated as "possess" means "to occupy by driving out previous tenants and possessing in their place." But Satan won't leave without a fight, he will resist, he will push back. But he will not win. Why? Because God has already declared that you are the victor. "The Lord said to Joshua: 'See! I have given Jericho into your hand.'" God did not say, "Joshua, take the city." God said, "Joshua, receive the city I have taken." The same can be said about you and your challenge. You say, "If God has done it for me, what do I have to do?" (1) Receive your victory by faith, just as you received your salvation. (2) Speak victory. Be sure your words line up with God's words. (3) Walk out your victory, one day at a time.You will conquer your Jericho Speak victory.Share This DevotionalMAY. 18, 2026You will conquer your Jericho (2)"Joshua...lifted his eyes...and behold, a Man stood opposite him." Jos 5:13 NKJVIn late January 1956, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. received a threatening telephone call at his house. It was not the first foreboding message he'd received. But on this night, as his children and his wife lay sleeping, the weight of the Civil Rights Movement was too heavy. He decided that the risk was too great. He began to map out an exit strategy. At midnight he bowed over the kitchen table and began to pray, "I am afraid. The people are looking to me for leadership, and if I stand before them without strength and courage, they too will falter. I am at the end of my powers. I have nothing left. I've come to the point where I can't face it alone." King described what happened next. "I experienced the presence of the Divine as I have never experienced Him before. It seemed as though I could hear the quiet assurance of an inner voice saying: 'Stand up for righteousness, stand up for truth; and God will be at your side forever!" When facing a daunting challenge, Dr. King shifted his focus and turned to God. The Bible says: "When Joshua was by Jericho...he lifted his eyes...and behold, a Man stood opposite him." After Joshua lifted his eyes from Jericho, a divine messenger stood before him with the solution to his problem. As long as your eyes are only on your problem, you won't see your problem solver. You must look up. "I will lift up my eyes to the hills— from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord" (Ps 121:1-2 NKJV).You will conquer your Jericho God will be at your side forever.Share This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

Newt talks with Senator Lamar Alexander, former Governor of Tennessee and U.S. Education Secretary, about his memoir, “The Education of a Senator: From JFK to Trump.” He traces his public life from a 1963 Justice Department job under Robert Kennedy, where he heard Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech, through the rise of “digital democracy,” social media, globalization, the Great Recession, and the Obama and Trump eras, arguing that social media and economic disruption have transformed American politics since around 2008. Alexander contrasts gubernatorial and senatorial leadership, likening governors to Moses and Senate leaders to drum majors who must recruit, align, and manage diverse “marchers,” and notes that many governors find the Senate frustrating while some senators struggle as pragmatic executives. He credits Howard Baker with teaching him to be an “eloquent listener,” to “learn to count” votes, and to remember “the other fellow might be right.” Relationships, he argues, are the essence of the Senate: he cultivated them by visiting House counterparts, maintaining courtesy, and hosting about 60 Senate couples, both Republicans and Democrats alike, at his Tennessee home. Alexander reflects on his own presidential bids, which he compares to moving from eighth-grade basketball to the NBA finals. He warns that presidential politics are increasingly dominated by “media and money,” recalling a 1999 quip predicting a Trump-like figure emerging from this environment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greg Jenner is joined in 20th-century America by Dr Hannah Thuraisingam Robbins and comedian Desiree Burch to learn all about singer and Hollywood actress Lena Horne.Born into a middle class Black family in New York, a young Lena Horne soon followed in the footsteps of her actress mother and made her début at the famous Cotton Club aged only 16. After making her name as a singer and performer – and following the end of her tumultuous first marriage – Horne transferred to the west coast and bagged a Hollywood contract with MGM. There, she appeared in a number of classic films, including Stormy Weather and Cabin in the Sky. Over the next several years, she would also perform for the troops in the Second World War, fall in love with and marry a white composer and arranger, undertake an international tour, and become one of the most popular nightclub performers of the post-war era. But the racism of segregation-era America would also shape and limit the career of the woman known as ‘the first Black pin-up girl', eventually leading her to the civil rights movement and Black activism in the 1960s.This episode traces Lena's journey from young dancer to Hollywood star and renowned vocalist, along the way exploring her connections with figures including Billie Holliday and Martin Luther King Jr., and the injustice she spent so much of her career fighting against.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

Tom Rath is a researcher and #1 NYT bestselling author of 12 books. His latest works are How Full Is Your Bucket? And What's the Point? Turning Purpose Into Your Daily Superpower. Greg and Tom discuss the broader arc of Tom's work, translating research on wellbeing, engagement, and strengths into practical tools. Tom describes shifting from self-improvement to “other-improvement,” using Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s question “What are you doing for others?” as a daily compass, and reframing purpose as an hour-by-hour “portfolio” rather than a single grand mission.  He contrasts purpose with passion, criticizes status and social-comparison traps, and argues that the responsibility for one's wellbeing largely rests with individuals because many employers and leaders model unhealthy, always-on habits themselves. Tom explains his concept of job/task/relationship/cognitive crafting, the primacy of relationships, and how AI increases the need to prioritize proactive, creative, human work over reactive tasks that are likely to be automated. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: What's the point of any given hour in your day? 13:57: What's the point of any given hour in your day, and is it doing something that serves other people, makes a contribution to the world? Or is it something that kind of winds you up and gets you charged so you can be at your best for other people? Kind of just asking, the point of that is even more important now than it was 12 months ago because, as I've studied this and gotten more into all of the tools that are available at our disposal with AI right now, the things that can be automated and just require responding instead of thinking about something and initiating or creating, those are the things that are going to be eliminated most rapidly. So my mindset on this has changed a little bit in the last six months, even to say I think everybody needs to be a little more critical and ask some of those questions because if you're doing something that just involves pulling together some numbers or responding to some emails, that's not sustainable anymore. Your strengths don't make a difference in isolation 50:31: The point of uncovering your natural talents or pathways is not so that you can go out there and beat your strengths into the world and tell everybody about your strengths. The point of it is so you can be more systematic about engineering how you apply those strengths to serve your clients and your customers and your community and the people around you because your strengths don't make a darn bit of difference in isolation. They kind of come to life in the context of a relationship and of a purpose. Can you make purpose more practical? 11:52: Telling people that they need to go find some big grand purpose at any stage in their life may do more harm than good because it produces a level of anxiety where you're thinking it's something larger than it really is that you need to find, or it's one big thing. Versus, as you get into the work, I've found that if you treat purpose like something you do on an hour-by-hour basis, and it's multiple touch points throughout a day, and it's a way to restructure what you do and reprioritize your daily routine, that you can make purpose into something practical. And when you're able to do that, your day is a little more rewarding. Show Links: Recommended Resources: Eudaimonia Donald O.

In this episode, Carl reflects on a powerful idea inspired by Martin Luther King Jr.: The arc of the moral universe bends toward justice—but what about our own personal arc? He explores how money and power can quietly influence our decisions, sometimes pulling us away from what we say we believe. Rather than judging others, Carl turns the lens inward, asking where we might bend our own standards under pressure—and how to notice those moments before they shape who we become.Want more from Carl?

Send Kevin a Text MessageMark Canton, producer of 300, Immortals, Men in Black, Air Force One, and My Best Friend's Wedding, former President of Worldwide Production at Warner Bros., and former Chairman of Columbia Pictures and Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Companies, joins host Kevin Goetz for a conversation about a career defined by passion and instinct. From delivering mail on the Warner Bros. lot as a college student to greenlighting some of Hollywood's most beloved films, Canton reflects on the legends he learned from, the risks he took, and why he still smells the circus every time he walks onto a sound stage.Queens, New York, and Family (02:34): Canton traces his love of film to a father who survived being shot down over France in WWII, won an Oscar for a short film on Van Gogh, and went on to do publicity for Hitchcock and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and to a mother who was a published poet. The movies, he says, were always destiny.Learning from the Greats on Papillon (15:22): Working for director Franklin Schaffner in Jamaica and living between the houses of Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman, Canton learned what it meant to commit to a film.From the Warner Bros. Mail Room to Running the Studio (20:31): Canton traces his rise from UCLA film student to head of Worldwide Production at Warner Bros., sharing stories about the Vacation franchise, Caddyshack, and Lethal Weapon.Taking the Helm at Columbia Pictures (39:22): Recruited by Peter Guber and Jon Peters, Canton became Chairman of Columbia Pictures and later oversaw Columbia TriStar. He reflects on the team he assembled and the record-breaking run that followed, including Jerry Maguire, My Best Friend's Wedding, Bad Boys, and Air Force One.The Art of the Difficult Screening (47:51): Canton recounts two defining test screening moments: a chaotic preview of Scorsese's The Age of Innocence in a New Jersey bowling alley, and a tough audience response to Luc Besson's Léon: The Professional that led to an ultimatum and a reworked film that became a modern classic.The Cable Guy and No Regrets (50:43): Canton defends paying Jim Carrey $17 million and notes what history confirmed: the film launched Ben Stiller's directing career, introduced Jack Black, Owen Wilson, and Judd Apatow. He also recalls his affectionate standoff with Mike Nichols over the ending of Wolf.What Keeps Audiences Coming Back (54:50): Canton argues that what fills theaters today is the same thing that made Purple Rain a phenomenon: the feeling of a live, communal, irreplaceable experience.Host: Kevin GoetzGuest: Mark CantonProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Mark Canton:Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_CantonIMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004799/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markcanton/?hl=enFor more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

Almost 60 years ago, on April 4th, 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King walked into Riverside Church in New York City and gave a speech co-written by Dr. Vince Harding, his peer in ministry. For over a decade, he had been the voice of civil rights  throughout the land and had great success.But on this occasion, he expanded his ministry to speak for justice throughout the world. He spoke about fighting for justice for all, putting a voice to the voiceless, even peace to those lands.

Dr. Jim Vickrey has met many notable history makers in his career as an education leader, and he shares his memories of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as well as evangelist Billy Graham on In Focus today. 

Why would anyone have been out to harm Walter Reuther?This controversial book details intense internal struggles in the UAW (United Auto Workers), especially between socialists, communists, and more conservative factions. Walter Reuther was a powerful figure in labor, especially within the UAW, and somebody doesn't want him remembered. His work involved leadership in organizing industrial workers, fighting factional conflicts within the union, and pushing for workers' rights and social justice. He was a skilled union leader who combined militancy with negotiation, significantly shaping labor relations in the U.S. Covert Magazine published an article on May 8, 2026, confirming that "Labor Leader Walter Reuther Was Among 1960s Liberal Leaders Who Appear to Have Been Assassinated By 'the Deep State.'" There are no facts to support the theory that Walter Reuther died in an airplane "accident." Newly discovered documents provide solid evidence of an assassination. The more closely this is observed, the more obvious it becomes. Reuther's battles with key figures like Homer Martin and Jay Lovestone—who became a CIA agent—and his eventual opposition to communist influence in the union, shaped the UAW's direction and contributed to his complex legacy. Walter and his brother Victor exposed the CIA's involvement in labor movements abroad, particularly through the AIFLD, linked to covert operations.This led to conflicts within the labor movement and contributed to UAW's withdrawal from the AFL-CIO. Reuther played a leading role in the Civil Rights and Anti-War Movements, too. He was a significant labor ally, supporting civil rights marches and challenging racial discrimination. The suspicious circumstances of Reuther's death have not been officially investigated. Author Rob McKenzie is a former Ford Assembler and long-time UAW leader. Here, he details the incriminating facts he has unearthed surrounding the crash at the Pellston airport as well as the obstruction put up by the FBI, the NTSB and others who hold the evidence of the crime. His connections within organized labor helped dig up long-suppressed documents. First-hand knowledge and decades of experience in the UAW provide a new perspective on Reuther's life, death, and legacy. The book argues that Reuther was assassinated due to his political positions and conflicts with the CIA and other powerful entities.CIA and Intelligence Agency interference is strongly suggested by the circumstances. The long-standing antagonism between Reuther and the CIA, with its covert operations that intersected with labor politics, made him a target. Judging by the decline of the UAW after his removal, the powers-that-be won. The UAW leadership shifted towards more conservative, cooperative relations with employers, moving away from Reuther's social unionism. The book highlights how the union's political and strategic path changed, leading to challenges in adapting to globalization and labor struggles. Despite new evidence and suspicions, the UAW leadership, the FBI and the NTSB have refused to launch thorough investigation. Attempts by family members, private investigators, and researchers to uncover the truth and seek justice have been met with resistance and silence. The book situates Reuther's assassination in its historical context alongside other politically significant assassinations of the era (John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Robert Kennedy) and calls for a reassessment of his life and death in light of suppressed information. Walter Reuther was a pivotal labor leader. His assassination shows every sign of being politically motivated and covered up. The author supports his conclusions with extensive documentation, interviews, and references to FBI files, union records, and personal accounts.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

DOWNLOAD KEYNOTE SLIDES BRIEF SUMMARY: In Rooted & Grounded, Part Two: The Power Working Within, Pastor Bryan Hudson teaches from Ephesians 3:14–21 that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think because His power is working within believers. Being rooted and grounded in love gives us stability, while God's inner power gives us strength, confidence, and responsibility. The sermon emphasizes that believers are not powerless, even when they feel weak or overwhelmed. God's power within us gives us agency—the ability to act, choose, make decisions, resist oppression, and make a difference. Pastor Hudson connects this spiritual truth to personal life, ministry, history, and justice, showing that God's power is not only for personal blessing but also for serving others and impacting systems. The main message is: God's power within us enables us to live in victory, bless others, and use our God-given agency to make a difference in the world. DETAILED SUMMARY Series Title: Rooted & Grounded   Part Two: The Power Working Within Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. Main Text: Ephesians 3:14–21 Key Verse: Ephesians 3:20,  “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us…”  Central Theme This sermon teaches that God's power is not only above us or around us, but working within us. Pastor Hudson connects Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3 to the believer's personal life, the church's corporate mission, and the broader responsibility to use God-given power to bless others and confront unjust systems. The message moves from personal encouragement to social responsibility. God's power within believers is not merely for feeling better, receiving blessings, or personal success. It is also for agency, dominion, service, courage, justice, and community impact. 1. Review of Part One: Rooted and Grounded Pastor Hudson begins by reviewing the first part of the series. He explains that the phrase “rooted and grounded”combines two images: Rooted is an agricultural term. It pictures a tree planted deeply in soil, drawing life, nourishment, and stability from its roots. Grounded is an architectural term. It pictures a building resting on a strong foundation. The point is clear: There is no growth without roots, and there is no structure without foundation. Believers must be rooted in God's love and grounded on a solid spiritual foundation. This foundation prepares them to understand and experience the power of God working within them. 2. Paul's Prayer in Ephesians 3 The sermon centers on Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3:14–21. Pastor Hudson highlights the major blessings Paul prays for: The believer is strengthened with might through the Holy Spirit in the inner person. Christ dwells in the heart by faith. The believer is rooted and grounded in love. The saints are able to comprehend the width, length, depth, and height of Christ's love. They come to know the love of Christ, which surpasses knowledge. They are filled with all the fullness of God. Then Paul reaches the powerful conclusion: “Now to Him who is able…” Pastor Hudson emphasizes that the words “He is able” summarize the confidence of the passage. God is able to do what we cannot do. He is able to work beyond human weakness, limited resources, opposition, uncertainty, and difficult circumstances. 3. God's Ability Works Through God's Power in Us A major point of the sermon is that God's ability is not disconnected from believers. God does exceedingly abundantly above what we ask or think according to the power that works in us. This means God's power is not only external. It operates internally through believers. Pastor Hudson stresses that life contains situations, circumstances, opportunities, and uncertainties. In all of these, believers need the mindset that God is able. But they must also understand that God often works through the power He has placed within them. This power is not only for individual comfort. It is for generational impact, ministry, witness, and service. Pastor Hudson uses the example of ministry at a juvenile center, where young men were saved, to show that lives are changed when God's power works through people. 4. God Is Never in a Slump Pastor Hudson uses sports illustrations to explain that people may go through “slumps,” but God never does. He references athletes such as James Harden and Shohei Ohtani to show that gifted people may have seasons when they do not seem to perform at their normal level. Yet the ability remains within them. He applies this spiritually: believers may feel like they are in a slump, but God is never in a slump. The Holy Spirit is never in a slump. The Word of God is never in a slump. Therefore, when believers feel weak, stuck, or discouraged, the issue is not that God's power has disappeared. The issue is learning how to reconnect with, believe in, and act according to what God has already placed within them. 5. The Meaning of “Power”: Dunamis Pastor Hudson explains that the Greek word for power in the New Testament is dunamis. He connects it to the idea of dynamite, noting that it refers to inherent ability, force, or capacity. This power is not merely emotional excitement. It is the power residing in something by virtue of its nature. For believers, this means God has placed real spiritual capacity within them. The sermon emphasizes that believers should not speak against what God has placed inside them. Even when they do not feel powerful, they should agree with God's Word. Pastor Hudson says believers should not primarily ask, “How do I feel?” Instead, they should ask, “What do I believe?” Faith-filled speech matters because people hear their own words. What believers say can either strengthen or weaken their faith. 6. Powerlessness Is a Feeling, Not the Truth Pastor Hudson identifies one of the worst feelings people can have: the feeling of powerlessness. However, he warns that feelings are data, not final truth. A person may feel powerless, but that does not mean they are powerless. He refers to 2 Corinthians 2:10–11, where Paul says believers are not ignorant of Satan's devices. Pastor Hudson applies this principle by teaching that one of Satan's devices is to make people feel powerless. The enemy wants believers to accept the idea that they cannot act, decide, resist, speak, move, or make a difference. But this is deception. The believer must reject the lie of powerlessness because God's power is working within. 7. Agency: A Key Concept in the Sermon A central concept in the sermon is agency. Pastor Hudson defines agency as the ability or power to act, make decisions, choose, make things happen, and influence one's life and environment rather than being controlled by others or circumstances. He teaches that agency is part of being made in the image of God. The closest biblical concept to agency, he says, is dominion. Using Genesis 1:26–27, he explains that God gave humanity dominion over creation. However, he makes an important distinction: God did not give people dominion over other people. Agency means believers have responsibility before God to act faithfully. It does not mean controlling others. 8. The Loss of Agency as a Strategy of Oppression Pastor Hudson teaches that one of the enemy's strategies is to remove people's sense of agency. He shares personally that there have been times when he felt beat down, disrespected, or overwhelmed to the point that he began looking for others to tell him what to do. In those moments, he recognized that the enemy had tried to convince him he no longer had agency. He recalls his mother's counseling approach: after talking with someone, she would ask, “Now, what are you going to do?” That question restores responsibility. Counseling, advice, prayer, and encouragement are valuable, but the person must eventually act. Agency requires decision and action. 9. Agency and the Founding of the United States The sermon then moves into a civics and history application. Pastor Hudson notes that the United States is approaching the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the founding of the nation. He warns that people will hear many romanticized and fabricated versions of American history. He urges listeners to value the full truth, not only the polished narrative. He says the founding of the United States was rooted in agency because the colonists rebelled against the repressive reign of King George III. They resisted taxation, lack of representation, and oppressive control. The nation was founded through rebellion against repression. That was an exercise of agency. However, Pastor Hudson then exposes the contradiction: while the founders exercised agency for themselves, they denied agency to enslaved Africans. 10. The Contradiction of Liberty and Slavery Pastor Hudson highlights the contradiction between the language of liberty in America's founding documents and the reality of slavery. He references the population of the colonies around the founding, noting that a significant number of people were enslaved. He also mentions the 1790 census, which counted millions of people in the new nation, including hundreds of thousands of enslaved people. The point is not merely historical. It is theological and moral. The founders spoke of liberty, justice, domestic tranquility, and the blessings of freedom, but enslaved people were excluded from those promises. Pastor Hudson asks: if the nation was truly founded on Christianity and the Bible, why were so many people kept enslaved? He argues that the nation had brilliant founders and a remarkable Constitution, but the full history must be told honestly. 11. The United States Was Not Founded as a Christian Government Pastor Hudson references the 1797 Treaty of Tripoli, signed during the presidency of John Adams, which stated that the government of the United States was not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion. His point is that while many founders respected Christianity and some were Christian, the government itself was designed to be secular, not a church-state system. He argues that the founders understood the danger of religious power being fused with government power, as had happened under monarchy in England. This section supports his broader theme: people must know the truth, reject idolatry, and exercise agency wisely. 12. Civil Rights as an Example of Agency Pastor Hudson then connects agency to the Civil Rights Movement. He references the Freedom Riders of 1961, including young Black and white activists who rode buses together into the South to protest segregation. They knowingly entered dangerous situations because they believed segregation was wrong. He mentions that the buses were attacked and firebombed, yet the Freedom Riders demonstrated agency by standing up to injustice. He also references Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s “I Have a Dream” speech, especially the image of coming to the nation's capital to “cash a check.” King used the words of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence to demand that America honor its promises. This is presented as agency in action: knowing what belongs to you, standing on truth, and acting for justice. 13. God's Power Within Is Agency Pastor Hudson brings the sermon back to Ephesians 3:20 by saying: God's power within is agency. The power working in believers is not passive. It enables them to stand up, speak out, help people, challenge the status quo, and use their lives to make a difference. This power is not only about personal victory. It is about responsibility. Believers are called to use their agency to empower others. 14. Responsibility to Bless Others The sermon closes with several scriptures that emphasize responsibility, service, and good works. Pastor Hudson cites Jeremiah 29:7, where God tells His people to seek the peace of the city where they have been carried. He explains that peace means more than the absence of conflict. It includes completeness, welfare, soundness, and making a difference where one lives. He also cites Acts 20:35, where Paul reminds believers to support the weak and remember Jesus' words: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” He references Titus 3:14, which teaches believers to maintain good works and meet urgent needs so they will not be unfruitful. Finally, he cites Galatians 6:10, which says that as believers have opportunity, they should do good to all, especially those of the household of faith. The sermon ends by calling believers to use their agency and dominion to honor God by blessing others. Main Takeaways The believer is rooted and grounded in love, but also empowered for action. God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think. God's power works within believers, not only around them. Feelings of powerlessness are not the truth. Agency is part of being made in the image of God. Dominion does not mean controlling people; it means acting responsibly under God. The enemy tries to remove people's sense of agency. Oppressive systems often function by denying agency to others. Believers must use God's power within them to bless others, seek justice, meet needs, and impact systems. The blessing of God comes with responsibility.   Concise Sermon Thesis Because believers are rooted and grounded in God's love, they carry God's power within them. That power gives them agency—the God-given ability to act, choose, serve, resist oppression, bless others, and make a difference in their generation.

Hotels represent nations, hosting visiting monarchs, politicians, and diplomats. Hotels underpin global networks of travel and communication, on which national and international prosperity have increasingly depended since the end of the First World War. Yet hotels are also places where people can be anonymous; where murderers and thieves mix with adulterers and con artists; and where prejudice finds expression in who is refused access, and in the forms of 'service' provided by staff in the lowest-paid roles. The Secret Life of the Hotel: Sex, Crime and Protest in British Guesthouses Since 1918 (Bloomsbury, 2026) by Professor Eloise Moss is the first book to uncover how hotels entrenched inequality, prejudice, and exploitation in Britain's tourist sector, and in wider society and culture, during the 20th century.Professor Moss delves into hotel murders, swindles, and scandals, including the history of Agatha Christie's disappearance in 1926, the 'Margate Hotel Murder', and the divorce of Wallis Simpson in 1936 so she could marry King Edward VIII. Professor Moss's exploration of the hotel also shines a light on the fight against the colour bar, the formation of the British civil rights movement, and the visit to London of Martin Luther King Jr.The Secret Life of the Hotel uniquely tells the story of Britain's relationship with the world during the 20th century through the prism of its hotels, showing how their infrastructure and 'welcome' had profound consequences for women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ citizens, and people with disabilities.

Dans le sud des États-Unis, en Alabama, des milliers de manifestants ont dénoncé, samedi 16 mai, des redécoupages électoraux pouvant entraîner une régression du droit de vote des minorités, après une décision récente de la Cour suprême fragilisant une loi historique de 1965. Une mobilisation qui souligne les tensions persistantes autour des droits civiques aux États-Unis. De notre envoyé spécial à Montgomery, Des milliers de manifestants se sont réunis à Montgomery, en Alabama, samedi 16 mai 2026, pour réclamer la protection du droit de vote des minorités. Le rassemblement dans cette ville du sud des États-Unis était organisé pour dénoncer la récente décision de la Cour suprême. La majorité conservatrice de l'institution a annulé un passage clé du « Voting Rights Act », loi de 1965 adoptée pour garantir l'accès aux urnes et une meilleure représentation des minorités. Ce texte historique permettait notamment de mettre en place des circonscriptions avec une meilleure représentation de ces populations. Depuis cette décision, plusieurs États du Sud, comme le Tennessee, l'Alabama ou encore la Louisiane – tous dirigés par des Républicains –, se sont mis à retracer les cartes électorales, en particulier pour les élections au Congrès. L'objectif, selon les critiques, est de diminuer le nombre d'électeurs issus des minorités, qui votent majoritairement pour le Parti démocrate. Ces nouvelles circonscriptions pourraient ainsi basculer en faveur des Républicains. Des actions dénoncées par les manifestants comme une attaque directe envers leurs droits. Avant le rassemblement à Montgomery, berceau du mouvement des droits civiques, une marche et une prière ont eu lieu à Selma, une ville voisine qui est également un lieu historique dans la lutte pour le droit de vote des Afro-Américains. La journée a débuté dans une église, où plus d'une dizaine de pasteurs se sont succédé derrière le pupitre pour dénoncer la régression du droit de vote des minorités. L'élue démocrate au Congrès Terri Sewell a pris la parole pour alerter sur les conséquences de la récente décision de la Cour suprême. « Ce qu'on voit depuis cette décision de la Cour suprême, c'est une offensive coordonnée pour effacer des avancées obtenues de haute lutte et pour faire taire la voix des Noirs et des minorités », a-t-elle déclaré. Plusieurs centaines de personnes se sont ensuite mises en marche en direction du pont Edmund Pettus. C'est sur ce même pont qu'en 1965, des militants avaient réclamé l'accès aux urnes pour les Afro-Américains lors d'une marche violemment réprimée par les autorités. Les images de cette répression avaient choqué le pays et contribué à l'adoption de la loi sur le droit de vote. Parmi les manifestants, Candace Howard tenait une pancarte sur laquelle on pouvait lire : « J'enseigne l'histoire, mais je ne m'attendais pas à devoir la répéter. » « J'ai eu la chance de connaître tous mes arrière-grands-parents et mes grands-parents, et ils m'ont raconté à quel point c'était difficile, a-t-elle témoigné. Ils ne pouvaient pas voter, entrer dans certains restaurants, ils devaient boire à des fontaines réservées aux Noirs qui n'étaient pas propres. Ils ne pouvaient jouer qu'à certains endroits, ils ne pouvaient pas faire du vélo librement. Pour moi, ce moment est important : il montre que ce pour quoi ils se sont battus ne peut pas être effacé. » Un immense rassemblement était également organisé à Montgomery, ville emblématique où Martin Luther King a prêché et où le refus de Rosa Parks de céder sa place dans un bus avait lancé un boycott historique contre la ségrégation. Pour Ashley Edwards, la perte d'élus démocrates aurait des conséquences directes pour les habitants de ces régions, souvent marquées par de fortes inégalités. « On a des taux d'illettrisme très élevés, des taux de pauvreté très élevés, des gens qui ne mangent pas à leur faim, a-t-elle expliqué. Et moi, j'ai peur que toutes ces politiques publiques censées aider les gens disparaissent si l'État de l'Alabama devient complètement républicain. » Pendant plusieurs heures, des prises de parole se sont enchaînées, avec notamment la présence d'invités d'honneur comme l'élue de New York, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. « Ce n'est qu'à partir de l'adoption du Voting Rights Act qu'on a pu avoir une démocratie dans ce pays », a-t-elle souligné. En conclusion, les organisateurs ont appelé à une mobilisation massive lors des élections de mi-mandat en novembre prochain, espérant une « vague bleue » – une participation et une victoire démocrates suffisantes pour contrer les efforts des républicains visant à maintenir leur majorité au Congrès.

Why would anyone have been out to harm Walter Reuther?This controversial book details intense internal struggles in the UAW (United Auto Workers), especially between socialists, communists, and more conservative factions. Walter Reuther was a powerful figure in labor, especially within the UAW, and somebody doesn't want him remembered. His work involved leadership in organizing industrial workers, fighting factional conflicts within the union, and pushing for workers' rights and social justice. He was a skilled union leader who combined militancy with negotiation, significantly shaping labor relations in the U.S. Covert Magazine published an article on May 8, 2026, confirming that "Labor Leader Walter Reuther Was Among 1960s Liberal Leaders Who Appear to Have Been Assassinated By 'the Deep State.'" There are no facts to support the theory that Walter Reuther died in an airplane "accident." Newly discovered documents provide solid evidence of an assassination. The more closely this is observed, the more obvious it becomes. Reuther's battles with key figures like Homer Martin and Jay Lovestone—who became a CIA agent—and his eventual opposition to communist influence in the union, shaped the UAW's direction and contributed to his complex legacy. Walter and his brother Victor exposed the CIA's involvement in labor movements abroad, particularly through the AIFLD, linked to covert operations.This led to conflicts within the labor movement and contributed to UAW's withdrawal from the AFL-CIO. Reuther played a leading role in the Civil Rights and Anti-War Movements, too. He was a significant labor ally, supporting civil rights marches and challenging racial discrimination. The suspicious circumstances of Reuther's death have not been officially investigated. Author Rob McKenzie is a former Ford Assembler and long-time UAW leader. Here, he details the incriminating facts he has unearthed surrounding the crash at the Pellston airport as well as the obstruction put up by the FBI, the NTSB and others who hold the evidence of the crime. His connections within organized labor helped dig up long-suppressed documents. First-hand knowledge and decades of experience in the UAW provide a new perspective on Reuther's life, death, and legacy. The book argues that Reuther was assassinated due to his political positions and conflicts with the CIA and other powerful entities.CIA and Intelligence Agency interference is strongly suggested by the circumstances. The long-standing antagonism between Reuther and the CIA, with its covert operations that intersected with labor politics, made him a target. Judging by the decline of the UAW after his removal, the powers-that-be won. The UAW leadership shifted towards more conservative, cooperative relations with employers, moving away from Reuther's social unionism. The book highlights how the union's political and strategic path changed, leading to challenges in adapting to globalization and labor struggles. Despite new evidence and suspicions, the UAW leadership, the FBI and the NTSB have refused to launch thorough investigation. Attempts by family members, private investigators, and researchers to uncover the truth and seek justice have been met with resistance and silence. The book situates Reuther's assassination in its historical context alongside other politically significant assassinations of the era (John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Robert Kennedy) and calls for a reassessment of his life and death in light of suppressed information. Walter Reuther was a pivotal labor leader. His assassination shows every sign of being politically motivated and covered up. The author supports his conclusions with extensive documentation, interviews, and references to FBI files, union records, and personal accounts.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

May 16, 2026, 9 AM ;The Supreme Court's ruling gutting the Voting Rights Act has cleared the way for a new congressional map in Alabama that would eliminate one of the state's two majority-Black districts before this year's midterms. Alabama is just one of several Republican-led Southern states that are seeking to redraw their maps in a way that would dilute Black voting power. House Minority Whip Katherine Clark and Black Voters Matter Founder LaTosha Brown joins The Weekend to discuss the latest on Voting Rights Act.

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are back solo and cutting up the entire episode. From debating celebrity ages and getting completely confused over Anne Frank, Helen Keller, and Martin Luther King Jr. to talking about hobbies as adults, bad cars on the highway, childhood talents, and why people need to mind their business about women not wanting kids — this episode goes everywhere in true Pour Minds fashion. The ladies also talk about learning to actually enjoy life outside of work, adult hobbies that help you unplug, reality TV addiction, taking yourself on walks, traveling, and how money and freedom completely change your quality of life. Lex admits gossip might actually be one of her hobbies, while Drea opens up about loving fitness, reading, and exploring Atlanta like a tourist in her own city. Later, the conversation turns into a hilarious “who’s older?” game featuring Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Adele, Chris Brown, Daniel Kaluuya, Kanye, Ludacris, and more — with plenty of wrong answers, zodiac sign logic, and chaotic commentary along the way. As always, it’s funny, random, relatable, and feels like hanging out with your homegirls with no filter at all. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the main show this week, the hosts had a wide and deep conversation touching on MLK's "burning house," the double-edged sword of integration, and whether the answer to all the chaos of recent years is to stay and fight or build something new. On this week’s MiniPod, Angela and Andrew continue the conversation about what comes next.

Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock stops by the studio to talk to Jon about the Supreme Court's dismantling of the Voting Rights Act, his visit to an ICE detention facility, and whether the Democratic Party is doing enough to fight back against Trump. Then Jon and the senator, who serves as senior pastor at the congregation Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once led, discuss JD Vance lecturing Pope Leo on theology, increasing political violence in America, and what lessons from Dr. King can help us build a sustained political movement at this moment.

From Krista: On April 4, 1967, Martin Luther King Jr. gave a speech at Riverside Church in New York City called “A Time to Break Silence.” This is often referred to as his “Beyond Vietnam” Speech. His own allies criticized it as a risky departure from a focus on civil rights. But Dr. King had never seen his calling confined to those two words. The Vietnam War needed to end, he believed, and he needed to say that plain. And in the waging of this war — and all of its consequences for people at home, especially the poor — he saw an underlying crisis that threatened the very soul of our nation. On that same date this year, the 59th anniversary of this speech, hundreds gathered again at Riverside for reflection, song, and a reading of portions of the speech. It was drafted by Dr. King's friend and comrade Vincent Harding, a beloved former On Being guest, and many of his friends and family joined this year. None of the words of this speech is as famous as the sentence “I have a dream.” This speech altogether gives voice to the less remembered and heeded evolution of the vision of Dr. King and Vincent Harding and others. It invokes the work that endures beyond leaders and events of the day, and that can be neglected at our peril if too many of us too narrowly focus our imaginations and creativity and callings on what transfixes and demoralizes in the moment. It calls for a “revolution of values” in the face of glaring contrasts of poverty and wealth and the human cost of a world order that settles differences with wars. That our world is broken, it tells us, should come as no surprise. There were deep moral and spiritual underpinnings to the events of 59 years ago, which we did not acknowledge, much less have risen to as a nation. A line from this speech seems directly aimed at our ears and our hearts: “We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.” What are the callings now, finally, for us to pick up in creating the world we want to inhabit in the beyond of this moment of great peril and an equal magnitude of possibility? This is a conversation with two human beings who loved Vincent Harding and whom he loved and formed: Michelle Alexander and Lucas Johnson. You do not need to have heard or read the speech to follow this conversation, but here are links to do so if you wish: Hear the speech, as recorded in 1959, in full. Read the speech in full here.

Mothers undeniably impact and shape history -- but their stories are often left out or misrepresented, says sociologist and author Anna Malaika Tubbs. This erasure limits policies to support mothers and their essential roles in society. Citing the remarkable lives of Alberta King, Louise Little and Berdis Baldwin (the mothers of Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and James Baldwin, respectively), Tubbs emphasizes the need to shift the perspective on motherhood at a cultural level -- to better reflect the presence, power and influence of moms as our first leaders, caretakers and teachers. "Would the world be different today if we had been telling their stories all along?" she asks.(This episode originally aired in 2022.)Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.
