    Let It Roll
    Thomas A. Dorsey Went From 'It's Tight Like That' to 'Precious Lord': Let It Roll From the Beginning... 3.11

    The same man wrote “It's Tight Like That” and “Take My Hand, Precious Lord.” As Georgia Tom, Thomas A. Dorsey cut it with Tampa Red in 1928 - one of the dirtiest hits of the decade, and the record that set off the hokum craze. As Thomas A. Dorsey, he wrote the song Mahalia Jackson sang at Martin Luther King's funeral. And the order is not the one you would guess: “It's Tight Like That” came after his religious conversion, not before it, because the church songs were not paying and he had a wife to feed. Host Nate Wilcox is joined again by Garrett Cash for the fourth installment of HolyRoll, their history of gospel music, in a conversation first recorded in 2022 and returning now as part of Let It Roll From the Beginning..., in which the whole Let It Roll archive is being re-cast in chronological order by topic - the story of the music told forward, in the order it actually happened. The book under discussion is Michael W. Harris's “The Rise of Gospel Blues: The Music of Thomas Andrew Dorsey in the Urban Church,” with Anthony Heilbut's “The Gospel Sound” and Robert Darden's “People Get Ready!” alongside it.

    Ron Waskow fills in for Glenn Wiggle alongside Mike Lomas on this episode of The Financial Guys. The pair react to a viral street-interview video in which self-described liberal New Yorkers support undocumented immigrants but decline to house them, then turn to Wegmans pulling its planned Upper West Side store, which they tie to New York City's government-run grocery proposal and the earlier loss of Amazon's HQ2. Mike and Ron also discuss AOC's criticism of Cornell, which they frame as selective outrage on crime, along with the UK's quick release of suspects in an alleged plot against a U.S. base and Rochester General Hospital hiring 80 foreign doctors out of 82. That leads into a conversation about meritocracy, DEI, and Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy.

    In this episode, I chat with Marcia Chatelain about her new non-fiction book How Bright the Path Grows: The Untold Story of the Women Who Made the March on Washington.Listen to hear about:How Marcia Chatelain's love of storytelling, journalism, and deep historical research shaped her path to becoming a Pulitzer Prize–winning historian and narrative nonfiction writer. Why How Bright the Path Grows reframes the civil rights movement by centering the Black women whose organizing, artistry, advocacy, and sacrifices are often overshadowed by figures like Martin Luther King Jr. The complicated, deeply human lives behind historical icons like Rosa Parks, Josephine Baker, Marian Anderson, and Anna Arnold Hedgeman—and why understanding their struggles and contradictions matters.How misinformation about women at the March on Washington inspired Marcia to investigate who was actually there, who was recognized, and whose contributions have been left out of our collective memory. What researching these women revealed about sexism, class, celebrity, competing strategies within the movement, and the many different ways ordinary people can contribute to social change.

    George PelecanosTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know George Pelecanos. George is a New York Times bestseller and the author of 25 books, most of which are in the crime fiction genre, and based in and around the Washington, D.C. area. In this episode, we chat about Some of his early experiences growing up in the U.S. capital, a very meaningful Martin Luther King Jr. event that he stumbled upon, and the 'Salad Days' of the D.C. Punk Rock scene. Of course, I dive into what lead him to become a writer in the first place. George didn't write his first novel until he was in his 30s, so I ask him why it took so long and what he was doing to further that goal in the meantime. Then we get into some of George's first books and what those early paydays looked like for him. I would like to thank George for his candidness as far as those early numbers & and those first few steps on his path to the undeniable success that he enjoys now. (Thanks George!). Next, we get into His work as a script doctor and how he came to be one of the writers & producers of 'The Wire'. Not only was George a writer, producer of that show, but he also worked on 'The Deuce', 'We Own the City', 'Treme', 'The Pacific', and so many more. We talk about his screenwriting, his experiences working on some of those shows and why David Simon chose to hire him in the first place; as well as his experiences living in some of those filming locations. Finally, we discuss George's newest novel which is titled "THE BLUE FLAME". This marks the 6th novel featuring his most popular character Derek Strange. George has written Derek Strange stories from when Derek was 12, all through the years to this current story where Derek is in his 70s. We also do a little bit of a deep dive on why some of the details in his books are so important, and why he thinks it matters to get those details correct, even when writing fiction. George also has his next novel already written! "Tell Chuck Berry the News" is a standalone work of fiction that is slated to be released next year. Make sure you check out A-L-L of George's novels and story collections, follow him on social media, and tell him you heard him on Fascination Street Podcast!

    In the 1960s, America was fighting two wars at once: one in Vietnam and another at home over civil rights.Acclaimed journalist and author Wil Haygood grew up watching both unfold. Young men from his Columbus, Ohio, neighborhood disappeared into the war in Vietnam while, at home, the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the unrest that followed brought the struggle for racial equality directly to his streets.In Part 1 of this three-part series, Wil joins us to explore the story behind his book, The War Within a War: The Black Struggle in Vietnam and at Home — and why the histories of the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement cannot truly be understood separately.We also meet two Black veterans whose lives illustrate that intersection.George Forrest grew up in segregated Maryland, attended Morgan State University and became an Army officer at a time when Black officers were still routinely confronted with discrimination. In 1963, while stationed with the Old Guard at Fort Myer, he found himself on alert for possible civil unrest during the March on Washington — unaware that his own parents were among the marchers.Dorothy “Dottie” Harris knew from childhood that she wanted to become a nurse. After serving in the Navy and completing nursing school, she joined the Army and volunteered for Vietnam, where she would eventually care for some of the war's most severely wounded.Their stories reveal the complicated meaning of military service for Black Americans during this era — a source of opportunity, responsibility and belonging, but also an institution that reflected many of the inequalities of the country they were serving.Wil also examines the draft, Project 100,000, and the disproportionate burden placed on Black and poor Americans as the United States searched for more men to send to Vietnam.This is Part 1 of The War Within a War. In Part 2, George Forrest goes into combat in one of the war's deadliest battles, Dottie Harris confronts the human cost of the war from a field hospital, and Wil Haygood explores how Black and white service members depended on one another for survival in Vietnam.Featured in this episode:Wil Haygood — journalist and author of The War Within a War: The Black Struggle in Vietnam and at HomeGeorge Forrest — U.S. Army veteranDorothy “Dottie” Harris — U.S. Army nurse and Vietnam veteranLearn more:Visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund at vvmf.orgConnect with VVMF:Facebook: facebook.com/VietnamVeteransMemorialFundInstagram: instagram.com/vnveteransmemorialYouTube: youtube.com/@VietnamVeteransMemorialFund

    The capstone of our 7TH HEAVEN September series shows the Camdens, in a bizarre later-series arrangement, taking on powerful social issues. This is "Got MLK?" the irreverently named racial reckoning episode in season ten, where Martin (an "accessory Camden" who used to live with the pastor's family) becomes the victim of a hate crime despite being a white man. The crime? A slur painted on his car, probably by his baseball team cohort Brad, but we don't know for sure. It all starts in class with a report on Martin Luther King. Alex (a black student) wants to do one, but his teacher Mrs. Porter rudely asks him to wait for the next MLK Day. She relents when Martin makes a comment that baseball is more important than MLK, proving the importance of additional focus on black history. Unfortunately, students have to redo their reports, causing resentment that may have led to the "racial remarks" painted on Martin's car. What follows is an insane dialogue tree of arguments and consequences, where no character handles the potential helter-skelter situation gracefully. In typical 7TH HEAVEN fashion, the writers seem to be asking -- how does this impact white people? But this is a special episode for us -- we get an inside scoop into the filming of "Got MLK?" via our friend Jarred Endres, who "starred" in it as "Student #8." Jarred, of popular re-edit Instagram account and YouTube channel Grimy Ghost, was a teen actor at the time and nailed his audition to read a report on Thurgood Marshall to end the episode. Finally, with the inside scoop on the Camden hijinks once and for all, we can rest on our laurels and take the lessons we learned from the Camdens (mainly Protestant guilt and anxiety) into our next life -- as soon as we can escape samsara.

    Send us Fan MailFilippense 1:29 God het julle die voorreg gegee om Christus te dien, nie alleen deur in Hom te glo nie, maar ook deur vir Hom te ly. Ons almal hou baie van die idee van seëninge – dinge soos goeie gesondheid, sukses, vrede, en miskien 'n bietjie geluk op ons pad. Maar wat sal gebeur as een van God se seëninge glad nie soos 'n seëning voel nie? Wat as dit jou baie kos?Toe die bekende burger-regte-leier Martin Luther King Jr. die pad van vrede gekies het, het hy goed geweet dat dit vir hom baie swaarkry sou bring. Daar was dreigemente, hy is tronk toe gestuur, mense het hom gehaat – en dit het uiteindelik selfs sy dood beteken. Tog het hy daarna verwys as 'n hoë eer om te ly ter wille van dit wat reg is. Sy lewe herinner ons baie duidelik daaraan dat sommige dinge so reg en so heilig is, dat die pyn naderhand deel van die voorreg word. Dit is presies wat die apostel Paulus destyds geskryf het aan die gelowiges in die ou stad Filippi:Filippense 1:29 God het julle die voorreg gegee om Christus te dien, nie alleen deur in Hom te glo nie, maar ook deur vir Hom te ly.Paulus het hierdie woorde geskryf terwyl hy self in die tronk gesit het. Hy het nie maar net mooi gedagtes probeer skryf nie – hy het dit self elke dag deurgemaak. Sy geloof in Christus het beteken dat hy in kettings gevange gehou is, maar hy het selfs dít as 'n groot eer beskou.Die absolute waarheid is dat om vir Jesus lief te hê, nie oor 'n gemaklike lewe gaan nie; dit vra baie moed. Om Hom te dien beteken dat jy soms heeltemal teen die stroom moet swem. Dit beteken dat jy moet opstaan vir wat reg is, selfs al kos dit jou baie.So, as dit vir jou baie moeilik voel om te volg wat waar en reg is – moenie weghardloop of bang wees nie. Jy is in baie goeie geselskap. Ware geloof vlug nie vir opofferings nie … dit vind juis groot vreugde daarin.God het julle die voorreg gegee om Christus te dien, nie alleenlik deur in Hom te glo nie, maar ook deur vir Hom te ly.Dis God se Woord.

    What can eight small paintings tell us about the possibilities of an artist-run space? Duncan MacKenzie, joined midway by Jesse Malmed, speaks with Jean Alexander Frater, Matthew Girson, and Dana DeGiulio about a two-person exhibition at Material, Jean's artist-run project space in Chicago's Roscoe Village. Four paintings by Matthew and four by Dana are installed in an alternating sequence, setting up a conversation across the walls rather than dividing the gallery by artist. Their discussion begins with the particular staying power of artist-run Chicago: Dana's work establishing Julius Caesar in 2008, Matthew's earlier project presenting artworks from the cab of a pickup truck, and Jean's decade of making room for other artists at Material. From there, the conversation turns to the peculiar ambitions of intimate paintings, each made within a day. Is choosing a familiar genre conservative? What happens when a painting leaves the studio and enters the social space of an exhibition? And what can an actual encounter with an object offer that a circulating image cannot? The group follows those questions through care, constraint, repetition, touch, and hospitality—with Maggie Nelson, Agnes Martin, Nina Simone, and the art market making appearances along the way. If a painting cannot tell its viewer what to feel, perhaps it can begin a sentence someone else is free to finish.   Names Dropped: Duncan MacKenzie - kurasmackenzie.com/ Jesse Malmed - jessemalmed.net/ Jean Alexander Frater - alexanderfrater.com/home.html Matthew Girson - matthewgirson.com/ Dana DeGiulio - danadegiulio.com/ Agnes Martin - diaart.org/collection/artist-a-to-z/martin-agnes Jackson Pollock - pkhouse.org/ Maggie Nelson - poetryfoundation.org/poets/maggie-nelson Martin Luther King Jr. - thekingcenter.org/about-tkc/martin-luther-king-jr/ Nina Simone - ninasimone.com/biography/ Nick Cave (musician) - nickcave.com/ Bad at Sports - badatsports.com/ Material - thevisualist.org/?p=194120 Julius Caesar - juliuscaesarchicago.net/about-jc Lumpen Radio - lumpenradio.com/ Christie's - christies.com/ Rothko Chapel - rothkochapel.org/ Palace of Versailles - en.chateauversailles.fr/ Google - blog.google/ Steinway & Sons - steinway.com/ Paintings that have the look of paintings that are looked at - thevisualist.org/?p=194120 On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint - graywolfpress.org/books/freedom-0 Art Song (section of On Freedom) - graywolfpress.org/books/freedom-0 Number 7A, 1948 (Jackson Pollock) - christies.com/en/stories/jackson-pollock-number7a-1948-john-elderfield-44b8c76206ad4793a8dccc3c899ea86f Christie's May 18, 2026 evening auctions - press.christies.com/christies-commences-spring-marquee-week-with-11-billion-in-sales-in-a-single-night/ Project Suncatcher - blog.google/innovation-and-ai/technology/research/google-project-suncatcher/

    Season 12 of Bionic Planet begins by going backwards. Climate change has fallen off the public radar just as the need for workable solutions has become more urgent. I've long argued that the great tragedy of climate and biodiversity finance is that those who understand it most have their noses to the grindstone, while those who understand it least have their mouths to the megaphone. That's one reason I'm bringing back Episode 35, which originally aired on October 31, 2018. It became one of the most popular episodes of Bionic Planet, and listening to it now, I'm struck by how directly it speaks to the mess we're in today. The guest is Reverend Dr. Gerald L. Durley, a veteran of the U.S. civil rights movement who marched with Martin Luther King Jr. and later became a psychologist, minister, and environmental advocate. I first encountered him at the 2018 Global Climate Action Summit, where he did something few speakers manage to do in a room full of climate-policy wonks: he electrified it. Durley argues that the civil rights movement succeeded not because the facts were sufficient, but because people learned how to organize around them. They took risks. They made sacrifices. They connected moral conviction with strategy and turned outrage into action. That lesson feels especially relevant now. Those of us working on viable climate solutions knew that many of the mechanisms being built were imperfect, but we also knew they were improving and generating results. Too often, we kept our heads down and continued doing the work while purists, propagandists, and opportunists took over the public conversation. Once the public lost faith in viable solutions, they shut down on the problem as well.  That failure to defend workable solutions — and the consequences of ceding the megaphone — is a central theme of The Carbon Paradox, and it will be a recurring theme of this season of Bionic Planet. In this conversation, Durley talks about what climate advocates can learn from the civil rights movement: how to communicate beyond statistics, why fear alone doesn't mobilize people, how faith communities can contribute, and why movements ultimately need more than good arguments. They need strategy. They need sacrifice. And they need energy. 00:00:00 - Introduction to Season 12 and Climate Challenges 00:01:39 - The Carbon Paradox and the Need for Strategy 00:02:34 - Disconnection Between Activists and Experts 00:03:44 - Reverend Dr. Gerald L.

    The political climate in 1968 was one of turmoil and division in the United States. There were major protests against the Vietnam War.

Kennedy. The Civil Rights Movement had seen major progress, but struggled to move forward as a militant wing began to form.

    Iowan Jane Elliott is renowned for her pioneering work in anti-racism education. Elliott achieved celebrity for her "blue eyes/brown eyes exercise, which she first conducted in 1968 with her third grade class the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated. This exercise has led to several documentaries, books and discussion over the last several decades regarding race, bias and systemic inequality. At 92 years old, Elliott is still fighting bigotry and enlisting others to join. On this episode, we listen back to our 2025 interview with Elliott. Her lessons are now finding new audiences with the documentary film 'Jane Elliott Against the World' which is screening in Des Moines on Oct. 7. We talk with the documentary's director and producer Judd Ehrlich about his journey creating a film that paints a full picture of Elliott's life, family and community.

    Sierra Leone Believes Poetry Is Essential Civic InfrastructureIn this episode we meet Sierra Leone—a poet, educator, activist, and cultural organizer who reminds us that a poem is far more than words on a page. It can become a gathering place, a healing practice, and a way for a community to remember who it is.In this conversation, we explore three central ideas:Presence is a creative discipline. Art begins with showing up, listening deeply, and making space for what has not yet found words.Poetry can become civic infrastructure. A poem can live in a school, gallery, theatre, public square, or gathering of neighbors—not only on the printed page.Belonging is something we make together. Through performance, mentorship, and shared cultural memory, unfamiliar people and art forms can become part of the same nourishing gumbo.Listen for Sierra's journey from “healing producer” to “creative catalyst” to “culture keeper”—and for her conviction that the artist's responsibility is not simply to speak, but to build spaces in which a community can hear and learn from itself.Notable MentionsPeopleSierra Leone — Dayton poet, producer, educator, activist, and interdisciplinary artist; the Kettering Foundation's inaugural artist-in-residence and Dayton's first living poet laureate.[JD1]Sonia Sanchez — Poet, educator, and Black Arts Movement figure whose advice about making time to write opens the conversation.Gwendolyn Brooks — Pulitzer Prize-winning Chicago poet, mentor, and civic literary leader.Amiri Baraka — Poet, playwright, activist, and central theorist of the Black Arts Movement.Haki R.

    The Declaration of Independence announced more than a separation from Britain. It made a claim about government itself: that people hold rights government did not grant and cannot take away, and that legitimate power rests on the consent of the governed. Those ideas were unprecedented in 1776. Two hundred fifty years later, they are still unfinished business.Judge Douglas Ginsburg joins Katie Crawford-Lackey to consider what the Declaration has meant at home and abroad. He served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, including a term as chief judge, and hosted the PBS series A More or Less Perfect Union and We Hold These Truths.They trace the document's reach: more than a hundred national founding texts that reference it, the French Declaration of the Rights of Man, drafted by Lafayette with Jefferson at his elbow, Ho Chi Minh quoting it word for word. And they trace its use here — Seneca Falls, Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr. calling it a promissory note come due.Ginsburg also takes up the harder questions. How a document proclaiming equality emerged from a society built on slavery. Why "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" replaced "property." Whether the Declaration carries legal weight today, and what it would mean for courts to start from a presumption of liberty rather than a presumption that the government is right.The Declaration, he argues, is a yardstick, not a finish line. Every generation has to pick it up again.

    EPISODE 767 - Karen E Osborne - Justice For Emerson - Dual time-line murder mysteryIn this episode, author Karen E. Osborne reflects on her writing life, her craft, and the community that surrounds it. A former New York‑based professional in philanthropy and leadership, Karen now lives in Port Saint Lucie, Florida, and has built a rich second chapter as a published novelist and podcaster. She shares that she began writing fiction late in life, publishing her first novel at age sixty‑nine, and has since produced a steady string of books while remaining deeply committed to both her creative process and the people who support it.Karen emphasizes three core principles for aspiring writers: write consistently, study your craft, and find your tribe. She explains that “writers write” is not just a slogan—it means showing up regularly, even if it's just fifteen minutes a day, and letting that small commitment accumulate into completed stories. She also underscores the importance of reading widely in and beyond one's genre, attending workshops, and joining writers' groups so that the learning never stops. For her, a strong writing community—whether local coffee‑shop friends or international writer pals met online—has been essential fuel for resilience and growth.The conversation then turns to her own body of work, which centers on strong, flawed, relatable women confronting social issues amid suspense‑driven plots. Karen talks about novels such as Tangled Lies, a murder mystery featuring two unlikely sleuths across generations and races, and Reckonings, a family drama about a middle‑child protagonist struggling to find her footing. She also discusses Getting It Right, soon to be re‑released as a psychological thriller, and the upcoming reimagined version she's written to align with a new sequel that took her by surprise. Her latest novel, Justice for Emerson, centers on Aria, a fifty‑year‑old Black widow running a nonprofit for the unhoused who discovers a beloved Vietnam‑vet volunteer murdered in her workplace. As Aria investigates, the story unfolds across timelines, weaving in issues of race, class, addiction, and how the past shadows the present.Throughout the discussion, Karen reveals that her fiction is character‑driven, shaped by people who feel real to her as she writes. She describes how characters often correct or reshape her assumptions—changing their age, class, or decisions—forcing her to revise her outline and deepen their humanity. Even her “bad guys” are layered and complex, reflecting her belief that most people are neither all good nor all bad. This approach means readers often feel deeply invested in her characters, sometimes reaching out to her mid‑read to express concern or attachment, which she cherishes as proof that her stories have come alive.Karen also shares candidly about the long road to publication, including the seventy‑eight rejections Tangled Lies received before finding a publisher and going on to become part of an ongoing yearly publishing rhythm. Her journey is a steady reminder that persistence matters more than perfection or timing, and that it is never too late—or too early—to start telling stories. She invites listeners to explore her podcast What Are You Reading? What Are You Writing?, where she interviews authors and other creatives about their work and reading lives, and to visit her website for details on her books, events, and her monthly newsletter focused on books and creative life rather than self‑promotion.Key takeaway for listeners:Writing is a journey of regular practice, continuous learning, and meaningful connection.

    Recording Date: September 17, 2026 Location: Capital Region International Airport (LAN) Nolan Finley - Author & Journalist at Detroit News For information about The Civility Book go to: https://wsupress.wayne.edu/9780814352182/ The event's featured speaker, Nolan Finley, longtime Detroit News editorial page editor and columnist, was then introduced to discuss his new book, Civility, co-written with Stephen Henderson, as well as current politics ahead of the midterm elections. He opened by describing himself as politically "homeless"—a lifelong Reagan conservative who feels abandoned by the Republican Party while still rejecting the Democratic Party—and argued that neither party is truly righteous, since both are driven primarily by the pursuit and retention of power, which he sees as the root of America's political instability. He then explained the origins of his civility project with Henderson (the former liberal editorial page editor of the Detroit Free Press), begun over 15 years ago, describing how their public "battles" on TV and radio masked a genuine friendship. He illustrated this with an extended anecdote from a 2011 Mackinac Island Republican conference, where two conservative women who claimed to hate Henderson ended up warming to him after a 45-minute conversation, despite neither side changing their opinions—illustrating his point that mutual understanding can replace hatred even without agreement. Finley explained that he and Henderson turned these ideas into their book last year, built on the premise that good people arrive at their beliefs by filtering shared information through their own personal experiences, and that these principles apply as much to business and family relationships as to politics. Drawing on a Martin Luther King quote about fear and lack of communication, he argued that people should seek to understand others' life experiences before judging them, sharing a personal example of a falling-out with a cousin over the 2016 election to underscore how political disagreement can needlessly fracture relationships. He closed by introducing the book's "four pillars of civility," starting with avoiding snap assumptions based on group labels, and emphasizing that the goal of civility is mutual understanding and coexistence, not necessarily agreement. » Visit MBN website: http://www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: http://www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: X.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

    Three Attitudes That Keep You Stuck

    Martin Luther King Jr. had been preaching on servanthood and love for two decades when he stood up and said: the laws you have on the books are unjust. I'm not going to follow them. And I'm going to break them publicly, accept the penalty publicly, and show you through my willingness to be punished what injustice looks like. He didn't need a rule to tell him what the right thing to do was. He had moved beyond rules — to a transformed life from the inside out. That's what genuine maturity looks like.Three attitudes keep most people from getting there. The first is the belief that you don't need authority, mentorship, or guidance in your life — which is what a 13-year-old thinks. Real freedom requires coaches who can see what you can't, tell you the truth when you don't want to hear it, and warn you about curves in the road you haven't reached yet. The second is the belief that you don't need a community of faith. Jesus didn't think that way — he said I will build my church, and the lone ranger approach isn't freedom, it's a ceiling on your growth. The third is the belief that your life is primarily about your own happiness. You'll be surprised to discover that the harder you chase it, the more it retreats.The most memorable experiences in most people's lives aren't the things they did for themselves. There is tremendous freedom in discovering that you're not the center of the universe — and that Jesus's plan is far better than your own.Support the mission of the Salty Pastor ministry!

    On today’s Closer Look with Rose Scott, as Georgia leads most states in development and operation of data centers, a report from Greenlink Analytics and Science for Georgia is skeptical of their expected growth beyond 2030. It claims the industry is planning massive infrastructure expansions that has “about a 0.2% chance of actually materializing.” We discuss the potential future of data centers in Georgia, and what it means for resource consumption in the state with Etan Gumerman, Director of Analytics at Greenlink Analytics, and Amy Sharma, Executive Director of Science for Georgia. Then, former chief classical music critic for The New York Times Anthony Tommasini believes the cultural impact of Marian Anderson has been lost over the generations. In Tommasini’s new book, “Voice of a Century: The Life and Artistry of Marian Anderson,” he shines a light on the operatic talent and the civil rights fight of the singer. It shares how Anderson broke racial barriers in opera, while holding the same crowds and stages as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., including her historic concert at the Lincoln Memorial where she performed for 75,000 people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kevin Kitrell Ross believes that religious communities cannot stay on the sidelines of public life, and that staying neutral when people are treated unjustly is itself a choice with real consequences. A minister in the Unity tradition, Ross continues the work of civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. in seeing political action as something his faith requires, not something optional. Our conversation looks at how his faith and community strengthen this conviction, the costs of staying quiet, and how he sees the responsibilities of religious people and communities today.Show Notes:Unity of Sacramento (https://unityofsacramento.org/)Send us Fan Mail

    QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “Each of us is a singular narrative, which is constructed, continually, unconsciously, by, through, and in us—through our perceptions, our feelings, our thoughts, our actions; and, not least, our discourse, our spoken narrations.”~Oliver Sacks (1933-2015), famed British neurologist “The reason why the theme of repentance is neglected, as indeed it is not only in modern secular society but in the church, is because it is a costly thing to repent. It does mean reshaping your life in quite a radical way. And people, just because they find it too costly of a prospect, …try to devise a way of being ‘Christian' which doesn't involve anything…radical….”~J.I. Packer (1926-2020), British-born theologian “…insecure in our relationships and anxious about intimacy, we look to technology for ways to be in relationships and protect ourselves from them at the same time.”~Sherry Turkle, professor of social science and technology at MIT “The deepest problems of modern life derive from the claim of the individual to preserve the autonomy and individuality of his existence.” ~Georg Simmel (1858-1918), German sociologist, philosopher, and critic “Everybody makes excuses for themselves they wouldn't be prepared to make for other people.”~Rebecca Goldstein, Plato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won't Go Away “Self-justification and judging others go together, as justification by grace and serving others go together.”~Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945), German pastor-theologian in Life Together In ancient Rome, “Christianity seemed to have little chance…. Christianity's success is to be found in its absolute inclusiveness. More than any other of its competitor religions it attracted all races and classes…. Christianity…gloried in its appeal to Jew, Gentile, African, and Barbarian…. There was no other religion that took in all groups and all strata of society.”~Kenneth Scott Latourette (1884-1986), American historian at Yale University “Our goal is to create a beloved community, and this will require a qualitative change in our souls as well as a quantitative change in our lives.”~Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968), Baptist minister and civil rights leaderSERMON PASSAGERomans 12:1-21 (NASB95) 1 Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. 3 For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. 4 For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. 6 Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly: if prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith; 7 if service, in his serving; or he who teaches, in his teaching; 8 or he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness. 9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; 11 not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer, 13 contributing to the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation. 17 Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Respect what is right in the sight of all men. 18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men. 19 Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 “But if your enemy is hungry, feed him, and if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

    The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts Session 10 on The Memoirs of Robert & Mabel Williams: African American Freedom, Armed Resistance, & International Solidarity. Moving forward from last week's travels be China and Vietnam, we'll pick up with Chapter 54. Recapping last week and Robert Williams' increased commitment to publicizing their Counter-Violence views, we saw the ongoing and widespread resistance he faced from White and non-white people who insisted that not all White people are Racist: Not All White People Are Racist? A major them of Robert's memoir seems to be the struggle - or near mandate - to find some people classified as White who are not Racist. A number of White and non-white people chastise Mr. Williams for not including or discussing Racism in a way that allows for "good White people." Gus T. has faced similar criticisms for rejecting 'Not All White People Are Racist' dogma. Buckets of Words: White and non-white people deluged Robert Williams with every term imaginable. Marxist Leninist. Communist. Nationalist. Black Nationalist. Revolutionary. Counter-Revolutionary. None of these terms have been defined and it frequently seems like a refined form of name-calling when applying these labels to non-white people. No Love for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: Gus noted 2 key dates are highlighted in Williams work. September 1963. And April 1968. In the former he laments the bombing of the Birmingham, Alabama church, and later on he details his talks on Racism in China. Williams remains mum about the August 1963 March on Washington and the April 1968 assassination of Dr. King. Doesn't even share how King's murder was reported internationally.

    For adults of a certain age, the September 11th terrorist attacks in 2001 were a defining event, just as the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X were for earlier generations. The geopolitical world was forever altered, along with how many Americans thought about the country’s place in the world, and even how they thought about their own identity as citizens. Longtime journalist and University of Oregon professor Peter Laufer documents all of this in his new book, "We Are All Americans." It’s a series of interview excerpts, photos and reflections from the people he talked with on three separate cross-country road trips: one just days after 9/11, another in 2011, and the last in 2021. We talk with Laufer about what he learned, and we take your calls to hear your memories and reflections about this day in history, 25 years later.

    Jeremy Kuzmarov discusses his new book establishing the fact that political assassinations in America have been widespread and deeply rooted in organized political conspiracy as a weapon in the struggle for political power—just like in other countries—and have resulted in major policy shifts that are usually negative. These killings are not isolated acts by “lone wolf” shooters but are instead coordinated conspiracies orchestrated by intelligence agencies and oligarchic interests. Both mainstream and alternative media serve as tools for propaganda, often labeling skeptics as “conspiracy theorists” to protect official government narratives. Kuzmarov highlights specific cases, such as the deaths of Abraham Lincoln, John Lennon, and Martin Luther King Jr., to illustrate historical patterns of Deep State involvement. This strategy of tension is also used to polarize the public and justify the expansion of a technocratic police state.
