Zachary Ugolnik has for years been charting a new path that refuses the tired and inanimate narrative about the separateness of science and spirituality, reason and religion. In his life we find rich possibility when those old illusory dichotomies are discarded, and from that possibility perhaps new wisdom for creating a society full of care and flourishing, one that embraces our inherent needfulness and borrows from theology, ecology, and the social sciences. Origins Podcast WebsiteFlourishing Commons NewsletterShow Notes:locate shared spaces of curiosity across disciplines (11:50)Émile Durkheim and collective effervescence (13:45)Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University (14:10 and 16:20)through lines between religion and social science (13:45)Victor and Edith Turner  communitas (15:00)Simone Weil decreation (18:30)re-membering (22:00)Zach's book: The Collective Self (18:30)Theater of War (24:00)Byzantine iconography and perspective (26:00)Picasso "Le Taureau" (26:20)The Social Science of Caregiving (27:30)Flourishing Knowledge Commons (27:45)Margaret Levi communities of fate (27:50)"Mobilizing in the Interest of Others" by Levi and Ugolnik (30:00)Buddhism and interdependence (31:50)Collective action problems (34:40)flourishing systems (37:30)Ilya Prigogine and dissipative structures (39:30)Danielle Allen (42:15)philanthropy (44:30)Strother School of Radical Attention (52:30)Andrei Rublev (52:50)Daniel Kahneman (53:50)Syriac term Iḥidāyā (55:00)Lightning Round (57:30):Book: The Way of the Pilgrimand The Narrow Road to the Deep North and Other Travel Sketches by Matsuo BashōPassion: travelHeart sing: swimming with my kidsScrewed up: eulogy Find Zach online:https://zacharyugolnik.com/Logo artwork by Cristina GonzalezMusic by swelo on all streaming platforms or @swelomusic on social media

In this episode of The Electorette, host Jen Taylor-Skinner is joined by Kelly Hall, Executive Director of The Fairness Project, to discuss how ballot measures are transforming the political landscape. As congressional dysfunction deepens and the so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" threatens vital programs like Medicaid, direct democracy offers a bold and effective workaround. Kelly breaks down the Fairness Project's 2024 wins—where voters in red states overturned abortion bans, raised the minimum wage, and expanded healthcare access. These aren't just policy victories; they're blueprints for bypassing broken institutions and reclaiming power from unresponsive lawmakers. Ballot initiatives not only protect rights under attack—they can reshape public consensus and influence national debates. From lawsuits to signature drives, and from grassroots momentum to constitutional amendments, this conversation is both a reality check and a call to action. Whether you live in a red state, blue state, or somewhere in between, ballot initiatives may be the most underused—and urgently needed—tool we have to defend democracy. Episode Chapters (00:00) Empowering Voters Through Ballot Initiatives Ballot initiatives empower citizens to enact change on critical issues in conservative states, influencing the national narrative. (12:25) The Power of Direct Democracy Citizen-initiated ballot measures serve as a tool for marginalized groups in red states, while corporations use them in blue states. (24:14) Expanding Impact of Ballot Initiatives Citizen-initiated ballot measures challenge conservative agendas and shape national discourse on reproductive rights, healthcare, and minimum wage. (37:36) Mobilizing for Direct Democracy Ballot measures are a democratic tool for change, but face challenges such as signature collection and threats from lawmakers. (45:07) Getting Involved With Fairness Project Nature's timeline and stages of ballot measures, engaging with the Fairness Project, personal reflections, and a call to action. #BallotMeasures #FairnessProject #ReproductiveRights #DirectDemocracy #Medicaid #MinimumWage #TheElectorette #AbortionRights #PoliticalPodcast #CivicPower #FightBack #BigBeautifulBill #KellyHall #RedStateResistance #DemocracyInAction Learn more about your ad choices.

The conversation touches on cultural aspects, the role of the church, and the significance of meals in forming deep connections among believers.

In Learning to Lead: Undocumented Students Mobilizing Education (Duke University Press, 2024), Jennifer R. Nájera explores the intersections of education and activism among undocumented students at the University of California, Riverside. Taking an expansive view of education, Nájera shows how students' experiences in college—both in and out of the classroom—can affect their activism and advocacy work. Students learn from their families, communities, peers, and student and political organizations. In these different spaces, they learn how to navigate community and college life as undocumented people. Students are able to engage campus organizations where they can cultivate their leadership skills and—importantly—learn that they are not alone. These students embody and mobilize their education through both large and small political actions such as protests, workshops for financial aid applications, and Know Your Rights events. As students create community with each other, they come to understand that their individual experiences of illegality are part of a larger structure of legal violence. This type of education empowers students to make their way to and through college, change their communities, and ultimately assert their humanity. Jennifer R. Nájera is Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Riverside. David-James Gonzales (DJ) is Assistant Professor of History at Brigham Young University.

Jeff also shares about the newly-released 30th anniversary edition of God's Heart for the Nations, a study resource he created that has shaped thousands of students and churches. Jeff shares his testimony of experiencing what he calls a “second conversion” a spiritual awakening to God's global purposes sparked by years of Scripture meditation and a simple yet transformative prayer: “Lord, burden my heart with the things that burden Your heart.” This journey led Jeff from pastoring in a small Pennsylvania town to becoming a prominent advocate for missions, deeply committed to helping believers discover the centrality of God's renown among the nations. During Jeff Lewis' 36-year career in missions mobilization, he planted and pastored two churches and spent 23 years as a college professor at California Baptist University and Oklahoma Baptist University. Jeff has also participated in training indigenous mobilization leaders in five African countries, along with assisting in the development of mobilization strategies in over 25 countries. Jeff's remarkable journey includes co-founding and co-directing the Passion conferences from 1997 to 2000, leaving an enduring mark on the landscape of ministry and worship. His literary contributions include the widely translated God's Heart for the Nations, Calling: A Scriptural Journey, and Christ Love Compels Me.

Season finale!The past year, we've talked a lot about just how much we've had to fight for the university. From authoritarian leaders who wish to suppress dissent and protests in universities, particularly protests in support of Palestine, to rudderless senior administrators who suspend programs, fire long-term staff, and hire expensive and useless consultancy firms, there's a lot of reasons to feel disheartened because the odds seem stacked against us. And yet, the fight continues. And we are seeing lots of victories. To counter Donald Trump's attacks against higher education, more and more chapters of the American Association of University Professors are being founded. Unions are being established. And continued organizing for Palestine has led to a number of wins. The University of Toronto's Faculty Association, for example, successfully passed a motion divesting from companies that fuel genocide in Palestine and in other illegally occupied territories. On a more personal note, witnessing and reporting and mobilizing against senior administrators' decisions has actually pushed me to get involved in the fight for our university. Overcoming my aversion to running for positions, I ended up running for a seat in our university senate, and won! So did all of my progressive, feminist friends who are sick of being told by senior administrators that we just had to trust that senior admin knows what they're doing. We're there to roll up our sleeves, dig up reports, and ask questions. So organizing matters. Being savvy, strategic, and smart matters. And building relationships matters the most. This is the core of our organizing work. In today's episode of Academic Aunties, our season finale, my new friend, Dr. Elisha Lim, and I talk about organizing tactics, the importance of relationships, and the potentialities of artificial intelligence. That's right, AI can be be put to good use. Elisha is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Humanities and does groundbreaking research on AI, social media, critical race theory, and much more.Related LinksDeclarations of Interdependence: How Media Literacy Practices are Developed, Negotiated, Rejected, and Exploited Across Social Media Platforms, by Elisha Lim, Gina Marie Sipley, Ladan Siad Mohamed, Francesca Bolla Tripodi Tripodi, Vincente PerezProf explores colonial roots of digital platformsThanks for listening!

Give to help Chris continue making Truce A small group of men calling themselves The New Right had a major role to play in bonding some evangelicals to the Republican Party. Yet many Christians don't know who these guys were or how they used money and influence to accomplish their goal. Let's meet the fellas. One was named Paul Weyrich. Weyrich's contribution to the movement is that he knew how to organize people, a skill he learned from watching liberal protests. He was a former radio newsman from Wisconsin, member of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church when he thought the Roman Catholic Church became too liberal. He saw how liberals were organizing in the US and decided to do something similar with conservatives. The goal was to bring together politicians, activists, money, and the press to have a unified front. Organizational skills were his secret weapon. Howard Phillips was a follower of RJ Rushdoony's Christian Reconstruction plan. He gutted the Office of Economic Opportunity for Richard Nixon and then founded a think tank called The Conservative Caucus. He said "we organize discontent" meaning that the New Right used emotional issues to rile up their base. Then there was Richard Viguerie. He was the king of bulk mail. The New Right used his services to advocate for their kind of politicians, for Anita Bryant, and to raise money. His company RAVCO was investigated for fraud. These men and more were vital in bringing some evangelicals into the Republican Party. Our guest today is Rick Perlstein, author of amazing history books like Reaganland and The Invisible Bridge.

The foundation of self-leadership is self-awareness.” “Self-awareness is really knowing who you are, your goals, strengths, talents, passion, what gives you energy, and tendencies (how you communicate).” “Emotional intelligence is a lifetime skill – it's having the knowledge of our own emotions and regulating them and understanding others and leading with empathy andcompassion.” “Leadership is for people. Managing includes resources.” “Instead of thinking about yourself, think about the work you are doing, the learning. the purpose, the mission.” “Focus on self-love a lot.”   Three Episode Takeaways:  1.   When we think of managing up there are myths associated with it including we're arrogant or being out of integrity. We also think if we just do our work, datawill speak for itself and others will see the value added we bring. When someone manages up and actively sharing what is being contributed new opportunities open up. 2.   There are two extremes of leaders: 1.Totally promotes themselves or 2. Focus on the team at the loss of personal accomplishments. The in-between is to do both. 3.   Make sure your hard work is aligned with the organization and your boss so your work is adding value and appreciated. Nejat makes the distinction between a great and productive relationship with your boss. When having difficulty with yourboss, think about the different communication styles and remember to ask how they would like you to communicate to have a more productive relationship.  Special Offer:Managing Up Assessmenthttps://nbac.outgrow.us/nbac-3 Episode Resource: The Art of Managing Uphttps://www.amazon.com How to reach Nejat: nejat@n-bac.com Website: https://www.n-bac.com/ https://www.facebook.com/nejat.h.abdurahman/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/anejat/ How to reach Yo:  Our website:www.girltaketheleadpod.com You can send a messageor voicemail there.

What if unlocking a child's full potential began with something as simple as a clean, well-fitting set of clothes? In this inspiring episode, host Nicole Jansen sits down with Lynn Margherio, the visionary founder of Cradles to Crayons. Each year, Lynn's organization provides over a million packages of essentials—clothing, shoes, diapers, school supplies—to children living in poverty or crisis, completely free of charge. But this isn't just about meeting material needs; it's about addressing the often-ignored crisis of clothing insecurity, which impacts over 20 million children across the U.S. Join us as Lynn shares her compelling journey from the world of business consulting and public policy to launching a nonprofit that's become a national movement. She reveals how clothing insecurity affects a child's ability to learn, grow, and feel confident—and why she chose to step down as CEO after 23 years to ensure the organization thrives beyond her leadership. Whether you're passionate about social entrepreneurship, building sustainable impact, or simply want to make a difference, this episode is packed with insights and practical ways to get involved. In This Episode, You'll Discover: What inspired Lynn to pivot from consulting and the White House to social impact The true definition of clothing insecurity—and why it matters How Cradles to Crayons serves over a million kids each year with remarkable efficiency The vital role of volunteers and community partners in scaling the mission What it takes to transition leadership and build an enduring legacy How you can support children in need—locally or virtually The educational and emotional toll of lacking basic clothing Why awareness is just as critical as giving How Giving Factory Direct empowers anyone to make an impact from anywhere How to discern if your idea is meant for your neighborhood—or the nation Tune in and be inspired by how one woman's simple idea, fueled by compassion and community, has transformed millions of young lives—and learn how you can be part of the solution.

In this episode, host Justice Shorter welcomes Jalyn Radziminski (Founder of Count US IN) and Henry Claypool.The podcast discusses the potential impacts of proposed cuts to Medicare and Medicaid services on people with disabilities in the United States. Medicaid cuts of $880 billion could significantly impact eligibility, services, and access to community-based living for people with disabilities. This threatens hard-won gains in deinstitutionalization and community integration. Closure of Social Security Administration offices and staffing cuts will exacerbate delays and denials of disability benefits, especially for those in rural areas who rely on in-person access. Increased government surveillance and scrutiny of disability program data raises concerns about privacy, discrimination, and distrust in accessing essential healthcare services. The disability community has a long history of advocacy and legal battles to secure rights and access, from the Rehabilitation Act to the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Olmstead decision. This legacy must guide future efforts to protect Medicaid and Medicare. Disability advocates and organizers need increased funding and support to effectively push back against harmful policy changes and center the perspectives of marginalized communities within the disability movement.Our podcast theme music is by Andre Louis and Precious Perez.

Sam shares what happened while he and his dad were waiting for a taxi in Thailand and what influenced him as a young boy to serve in ministry and missions. He gives us eight things you can do to mobilize families to the nations and discusses some of the obstacles he's faced over the years too. Here's what Dave asked him:   Let's talk about your childhood. What were some of the things you recall that influenced your decision to serve in ministry/missions? How did growing up overseas in Northern Asia impact your future missions involvement? You've served on staff at two churches and oversaw the missions programs at both of them. When it comes to mobilizing families, what are some of the obstacles you've come across? What are some of the strategies you use to increase families' missions involvement? How have you seen short-term mission trips impact those who have participated? How have you been involved in your church's missions committee?

Understanding our power: “If you're always consumed by the next outrage, you can't look closely at the last one.” (Ezra Klein) Last week, Trump tried to stop payment of all federal grants and assistance. But people rose up in protest, and within a day Trump rescinded the entire effort. How did we do it? What does that tell us about him--and about our power? Rebecca Solnit comments – her new blog is “Meditations in an Emergency.”Also: Trump's strategy of flooding the zone with executive actions is intended to paralyze the opposition. But there's lots of grassroots mobilization underway right now, and one of the biggest organizers of that mobilization is Indivisible. Leah Greenberg will explain the group's strategy and tactics -- and this week's work assignments -- to get four Republicans to vote “No” on Trump's four terrible nominees. Leah is one of the co-founders and co-executive directors of Indivisible.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
