Podcasts about Nelson Mandela

We kick off with the usual shenanigans from Fintan and Jon, mostly Fintan though as Jon is generally the voice of reason here [0:00 – 19:00]. Then we come to our second guest of the Gambling Book Awards era (www.gamblingbookawards.com). The magnificent Peter Venison shares his experiences working with the legendary Sol Kerzner, a titan in the hospitality and gambling industries. Peter's experiences led to him writing the book Sol: My Friend and Adversary, which came out in early 2025. The discussion covers Kerzner's visionary approach to building resorts, the evolution of the gambling landscape in South Africa, and the cultural and social changes during that era.Venison reflects on the challenges and successes of creating Sun City, the marketing strategies employed, and the impact of Nelson Mandela on the industry. The conversation concludes with insights into Venison's excellent memoir about Kerzner and the book's reception, and possibly the greatest tax wheeze we have ever heard of [19:01 – 1:18:43].

Are you feeling on top of life right now or do you feel life is on top of you? Are you tired of being tired? The subject of ‘How to be strong when you are weak' is very relevant to every one of us. So many people look like they are strong and on top of life, but the truth is that they are struggling to find the energy to just keep going in life.   So how can you cope and conquer when you experience times when you may feel physically, emotionally, mentally and even spiritually fatigued; when you feel you have little or nothing more to give? Well, as always, the Bible has answers for us. There are many references to weariness in the Bible (1 Samuel 30:10; Galatians 6:9; Matthew 11:28-30 NIV and MSG).   In Isaiah 40:28-31, the prophet Isaiah shows us how to overcome weariness, saying: “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” We see some key points from these verses: 1. We all need strength (Psalm 31:9-10; 1 Corinthians 2:3; 2 Corinthians 11:27-28; 2 Corinthians 1:8-9)  2. God can give us the strength we all need (Isaiah 40:26-31; Psalms 28:7, 46:1, 59:16-17, 73:26, 118:14; 2 Corinthians 12:9-10; Philippians 4:13).  3. God can give us Strength for new conquests (Isaiah 40:31b; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Ephesians 4:1; 1 John 1:7)  Apply  1. We all need strength. As human beings who have a body, a soul and spirit, which means we need physical strength, emotional or mental strength and spiritual strength. But the fact is that everyone at different times lack strength. Here says “even youths”! Can you imagine if even those who should have the most strength because they are young feel tired, how much more tired and weary must everyone else be? Everyone can experience weakness. Even the great king David, winner of many battles, who defeated the giant Goliath, often felt cornered and about to be destroyed by his enemies. Often in the Psalms he reveals his sense of vulnerability (Psalm 31:9-10). The great apostle Paul wrote of his many weaknesses, despair, and challenges (1 Corinthians 2:3; 2 Corinthians 11:27-28; 2 Corinthians 1:8-9). If spiritual giants like King David and the apostle Paul experienced weakness, we should not be surprised when we also may face struggles in our personal lives or health, with our families, at work, in your career or finances, perhaps even in our romantic relationships. Maybe right now you feel yourself becoming weary, tired, and weak maybe you feel exhausted or perhaps overwhelmed. Remember younger as well as older can feel this way which is why you need to learn what the Bible teaches here.  2. God can give us the strength we all need (Isaiah 40:28-31). Last week, from earlier verses in this same chapter, we learnt about the awesomeness of God, the Holy One who is greater than all nations and idols, the creator of the heavens and all the earth, of the constellations and all the stars to which He has given names (Isaiah 40:26). Our God has no equal; He cannot be compared to anyone. The Lord is the everlasting God. You need to understand who God is and that He will never grow tired or weary. Because of who He is, He is more than able to help you when you are weary. When you put your trust and hope in the Lord you will have a strength transfusion. Your weakness, your weariness is not a problem to God. You just have to connect with His strength. You need to stop trying to fight your own way out of every situation. You need to start relying on God. As Jesus directed, you need to come to Him in your weariness and get yoked to Him. This is what men and women of God throughout the Bible and church history have learned, including king David and the apostle Paul. Scripture speaks of singing about God's strength and steadfast love, acknowledging Him as a fortress and refuge, and being able to do all things through Christ who strengthens us (Psalms 28:7, 46:1, 59:16-17, 73:26, 118:14; 2 Corinthians 12:9-10; Philippians 4:13). We too daily need to learn this secret that the Lord is the source of our strength and also, we need to see how many possibilities there are when we receive His strength.  3. God can give us Strength for new conquests (Isaiah 40:31b). Soaring like eagles speaks of rising to a higher level. Eagles look down from a high position and a different perspective. You too can rise above your problems, your anxieties, or weaknesses. With God you can go higher in life than you ever imagined. Today God is giving you this promise: that when you rely on His strength “you will soar on wings like eagles.” You can also run without stopping. The prophet Isaiah says “they will run and not grow weary.” Running speaks of speed and acceleration. God can help you not just to start running the race as a Christian but to keep running all through your life. The Lord can lift the weight of our sins and anything that hinders us from running successfully toward the eternal reward. And you can walk without fainting. Walking speaks of consistent and steady progress. The Bible tells us about Enoch who walked faithfully with God for 300 years through every season and circumstance. The Bible says a lot about how we should walk as Christians. We must "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7), "walk in a manner worthy of the calling" (Ephesians 4:1), and "walk in the light, as he is in the light" (1 John 1:7). Other verses encourage us to walk with wisdom, walk humbly, and walk in love. Our walk to heaven may take many years like Nelson Mandela's "Long walk to freedom." But we can keep on walking, even if sometimes we feel tired, when we look to the Lord for strength. Today no matter how tired or weary you may feel take time to come to the Lord for your strength and to rest secure in all His plans and promises. For when you do you too will find that He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. You too ‘will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.'

In a world where the concept of freedom often seems tied to physical circumstances, the story of Nelson Mandela serves as a powerful reminder that true freedom begins within our minds. In today's episode we delve into the profound lessons that can be learned from Mandela's extraordinary life and his time behind bars. Mandela's imprisonment was not merely a period of confinement; it was a transformative journey that shaped him into one of the most revered leaders in history. He faced the daunting challenge of maintaining his dignity and sense of self-worth in an environment designed to break him. Instead of succumbing to bitterness and resentment, Mandela chose a path of understanding and peace.  Throughout his years in prison, Mandela engaged in self-reflection and personal growth. He understood that to lead effectively, he first needed to cultivate peace within himself. This inner freedom allowed him to transcend his physical limitations and emerge as a beacon of hope for millions. Lori continues to share wisdom from historical icons that you do not want to miss!

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.Sacred land, contested memory, and a centuries-long fight for sovereignty, this conversation with Dr. Garrey Dennie traces the deep antiquity of the Kalinago in St. Vincent, their transformation into a maritime powerhouse, and the strategic choices that delayed European domination for generations. Instead of a single “first contact,” we explore two: the catastrophic arrival of Europeans and the liberatory meeting of Kalinago communities with Africans who escaped or were freed from bondage.Dr. Dennie unpacks genocide as a 300-year process, where pathogens, forced labor, and scorched-earth campaigns worked in tandem to clear land for sugar and slavery. He explains how the union that produced the Garifuna did more than build solidarity; it created a hybrid identity with immunological resilience that helped communities survive. From the First and Second Carib Wars to the brutal detention on Baliceaux and the mass exile of 1797, we follow the pivotal moments that transformed St. Vincent and, paradoxically, shortened its time as a British slave society through relentless resistance.We also step inside a landmark scholarly effort: the forthcoming multi-volume Native Genocide and African Enslavement in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. He is one of four Vincentian historians co-authoring the series that restores Indigenous and Garifuna perspectives to the center, bridges archaeology and epidemiology with political history, and invites listeners to reconsider where homeland and belonging truly reside. If you're ready to move beyond textbook myths and confront the intertwined stories of survival, identity, and power, this episode offers a clear, compelling path forward.Dr. Garrey Dennie is an Associate Professor of History at St. Mary's College of Maryland and a founder of its Program in African and African Diaspora Studies.  He obtained his first degree at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill and his Ph. D at The Johns Hopkins University.  Dr. Dennie has also lectured at the University of the West Indies at the Mona campus in Jamaica.  Dr. Dennie has produced and published original scholarship on the politics of death in modern South Africa. And in the greatest privilege of his life, Dr. Dennie served as a speechwriter for Nelson Mandela in the battle to destroy white rule in apartheid South Africa.Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts - Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?

Dominic delivers powerful takes on high-stakes politics, focusing urgently on the impending government shutdown that threatens to end SNAP food stamp benefits and halt paychecks for air traffic controllers. In the critical final six days of the New York City mayoral race, Dominic launches a furious takedown of candidate Zohran Mamdani, whom he labels a "con man," "clown," and "charlatan". Dominic vehemently rejects the comparison of Mamdani to civil rights icon Jackie Robinson—a comparison which he finds "scare[s] everyone to death"—and insists that Mamdani is "no Nelson Mandela". Dominic also addresses the candidate's strong anti-Israel positions, anti-Semitic views, and "free, free, free" socialist platform. Finally, Dominic issues a direct, controversial plea to his friend, Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa, urging him to suspend his campaign immediately to avoid a historic loss and become a political "hero," living to fight another day.

The future of Palestinian leadership remains unclear as the current Palestinian Authority leader, Mahmoud Abbas, remains unpopular and heavily criticised.  One candidate for leadership is Marwan Barghouti, who has been described as a Nelson Mandela-like leader for Palestine. However, he has been imprisoned in Israel since 2004, facing ill-treatment and torture.  Wire Host Caeden spoke to Professor Amin Saikal, Middle East Analyst at Australian National University, about Marwan Barghouti and the broader leadership crisis in Palestine.

Tyler considers Winnie and Nelson: Portrait of a Marriage one of the best books of the last decade, and its author Jonny Steinberg one of the most underrated writers and thinkers—in North America, at least. Steinberg's particular genius lies in getting uncomfortably close to difficult truths through immersive research—spending 350 hours in police ride-alongs, years studying prison gangs and their century-old oral histories, following a Somali refugee's journey across East Africa—and then rendering what he finds with a novelist's emotional insight. Tyler and Jonny discuss why South African police only feel comfortable responding to domestic violence calls, how to fix policing, the ghettoization of crime, how prison gangs regulate behavior through century-old rituals, how apartheid led to mass incarceration and how it manifested in prisons, why Nelson Mandela never really knew his wife Winnie and the many masks they each wore, what went wrong with the ANC, why the judiciary maintained its independence but not its quality, whether Tyler should buy land in Durban, the art scene in Johannesburg, how COVID gave statism a new lease on life, why the best South African novels may still be ahead, his forthcoming biography of Cecil Rhodes, why English families weren't foolish to move to Rhodesia in the 1920s, where to take an ideal two-week trip around South Africa, and more.

October 12, 2025 - Sunday AM Bible Class   In this episode the hosts pick up a topical study of the Gospel of John, following Phil's opening sessions. The class leaders explore the central theme of Jesus' humility as recorded in John, weaving scripture, historical examples, personal stories, and practical application together to help listeners see humility as a strength, not a weakness. The discussion opens with definitions and helpful analogies — from Merriam-Webster's simple definition to Gavin Ortlund's reflections in Humility: The Joy of Self-Forgetfulness, and quotes by C.S. Lewis and Tim Keller — and a few personal reflections (flying over the Yukon, mountain vistas) to illustrate humility as awe and perspective. The episode surveys humility in both secular and biblical examples (Abraham Lincoln, Nelson Mandela; Moses, Job, John the Baptist, Paul) and then turns to the Gospel of John to trace humility from the incarnation to the cross. Key passages examined include John 1:1–14 (the Word becoming flesh, Jesus' humble birth in a manger and the shepherds' witness), John 13 (the washing of the disciples' feet as servant leadership), John 4 (Jesus' patient, barrier-breaking conversation with the Samaritan woman), and John 10:11–18 (the good shepherd who lays down his life). The hosts highlight Jesus' humility in action: submission to the Father, service to the marginalized, willingness to be misunderstood, and ultimate self-emptying in death. They contrast worldly leadership with Jesus' model and use anecdotes (e.g., the shepherds of the East who lead rather than push) to bring biblical truth into modern perspective. The episode ends with tangible application: serve without seeking recognition; listen more and speak less; admit mistakes and seek forgiveness; prioritize others' needs; pray with dependence, not pride; avoid judging and comparing; accept lowly tasks willingly; remain teachable; forgive quickly; and live for God's glory rather than your own. The closing thought recalls C.S. Lewis — humility doesn't mean thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less — and invites listeners to let Jesus' example shape their daily lives.   Duration 42:51

Facing a moment when you realize you're "flying the wrong direction"? This sermon from Dr. Roger Patterson, based on the story of Moses in Exodus 4, offers four essential principles for adjusting your course and moving forward in obedience to God. Dr. Patterson emphasizes that spiritual transformation begins with a change in direction, drawing a parallel with the story of "Wrong Way" Corrigan and the profound journey of Moses. Learn how to overcome the fears and private disobedience that hold you back so you can embrace God's plan for your life. In this message, you'll discover: Key Principles for Adjusting Course: 1. Be truthful with yourself and with others: Moses wasn't completely honest about his return to Egypt, driven by fear of his father-in-law and fear for his life. God's specific word to Moses—that the men seeking his life were dead—served as a reinforcement and encouragement against his fear. The practical question for us is: What fear is holding you back, and what one step will you take in spite of it? 2. When you take action, resolve the unresolved: You cannot move forward in public obedience while remaining in private disobedience. Just as Moses had neglected the covenant command of circumcision for his son, God will deal with a leader's unfinished obedience. This principle calls for repentance: owning your failures and agreeing with God, saying, "You are right, I am wrong". 3. Trust God to bring you the right people for the journey: God brought leaders like Aaron (spokesman, wingman) and others to provide capacity, strength, and a succession plan for Moses. The work God calls you to is far too great to do alone. Proverbs 24:6 states, "in the abundance of counselors there is victory". 4. Your aim is to influence others and show God's faithfulness: When you adjust your course and obey, others will see the faithfulness of God and join you. Your private faith is turned into a public witness. Dr. Patterson illustrates this with the life of Nelson Mandela, whose internal reorientation from anger to grace and revenge to reconciliation ultimately led to him influencing a nation. Action Points (The Four A's): Identify the direction of God's calling. Address the area he's asking you to surrender (Repent). Accept the help he's sending you. Act—take your first step today. Scripture Reference: Exodus 4:18-31

On this edition of the NdB Sunday Show Rory Steyn, the former Chief of Security for the late President Nelson Mandela, calls for special legislation that denies any police officer a political affiliation. Steyn is speaking in the wake of another week of increasingly jaw-dropping evidence heard at the Madlanga Commission and Parliament's Ad Hoc Committee. Steyn outlines why the political ambitions of former Police Minister Senzo Mchunu and suspended Deputy Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya have been dashed. “I'm not sure I have the words to express the revulsion that I feel towards the leadership of the police, certain of…we need more Mkhwanazis”. He hails “brave witnesses, A, B, and C, investigating this, who are strong and courageous enough and have sufficient integrity to say, not on our watch”. He also gives his take on the Nine Lives of “Cat” Matlala and other players in the triad of cartel bosses, crooked cops, and captured politicians. Meanwhile, Steyn calls for NPA resources to be bolstered to ensure consequences for those implicated. “Put it in the hands of the private sector. There's enough legal expertise out there. Put it in the hands, even possibly of private investigators…”

Naïveté ? Indifférence crasse ? Mauvaise foi ? Dissonance cognitive ? Déni ? Hallucination totale ? Dans son livre, Vivre, libre, l'autrice française noire Amandine Gay interroge la prodigieuse faculté des personnes blanches de son entourage à s'aveugler. Comment peuvent-elles ignorer si royalement les situations pourtant innombrables où se niche le racisme ? Où ont-elles appris à faire comme si tout allait bien dans le meilleur des mondes possibles ? Et comment vivre avec cette sensation permanente de décalage, l'impression d'être entouré de gens qui disent vous aimer sincèrement mais passent complètement à côté de ce que vous vivez tous les jours ? Dans cet épisode, Amandine Gay raconte sa découverte du philosophe Charles Mills (1951-2021) qui a décortiqué ce qu'il appelle « l'ignorance blanche », les différents mécanismes cognitifs qui permettent aux blancs de ne pas voir la domination raciale dont ils bénéficient.

A first-of-its-kind operation targeting terrorism financing has led to 83 arrests across six African countries and the identification of 160 persons of interest. In this interview with BizNews, Willem Els of the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) shares details of the two-month Operation Catalyst, jointly coordinated by INTERPOL and AFRIPOL, during which authorities screened more than 15,000 persons of interest and entities, uncovering around USD 260 million potentially linked to terrorism-related activities. “ it was a very, really big event…it made a huge impact on Africa”. Els explains why tackling terrorist financing is particularly complex for law enforcement, as it often cuts across diverse criminal activities, including fraud, kidnapping for ransom, illicit trade, online scams, Ponzi schemes and the misuse of virtual assets. Els also recalls how he and the late President Nelson Mandela were on the Blue Train - along with scores of foreign dignitaries and premiers and heads of state - when their train was targeted by local terrorists. “…just think what would have happened…”

As we begin our reflections of the 250th year of our shared experiment—in the 5th season of our UNUM series—we are truly honored to bring you the current president of The American Academy of Arts & Sciences, Dr. Laurie L. Patton. Fresh from the founding of a brand new country with a Big Idea (but still in the throes of the Revolution), John Adams was among the founders of the storied American Academy of Arts & Sciences.

In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Advocate Mark Oppenheimer of the Johannesburg Bar tells Chris Steyn “there may very well be an argument that the South African government itself has been either complicit or silent in the face of genocidal speech”. He was speaking after President Cyril Ramaphosa and former Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor made it clear that South Africa would press ahead with its ICJ genocide case against Israel - despite the Middle East Peace Pact. “…it would be interesting if the Israelis were to...take South Africa to court in a parallel piece of litigation." Oppenheimer commends the visit to Israel by two granddaughters of the late President Nelson Mandela, and their balanced view in contrast with their cousin Mandla who was detained and deported after the flotilla intercept. As for the Madlanga Commission, Oppenheimer fears that South African are suffering from “commission fatigue” - and warns: “…the ANC government might want to bear in mind that there's only so much you can do to the poor and the oppressed before they rise up against you and... slit your throats or do other terrible things to you as we've seen in other countries abroad.” Oppenheimer, who also specialises in municipal law, shares his thoughts on the Jo'burg Mayoral race - and shares his “unusual way of solving” the crisis in the City. He also gives the backstory to the case of Professor Adam Mendelsohn at UCT which stands to lose as much a billion rand in funding because of its anti-Israel stance.

C'est l'événement majeur de la journée : les vingt derniers otages israéliens encore en vie, retenus par le Hamas, ont été libérés et sont désormais de retour en Israël. Une libération obtenue dans le cadre d'un échange sans précédent : près de 2 000 prisonniers palestiniens ont été relâchés, envoyés pour certains en Cisjordanie ou à Gaza, et pour beaucoup, expulsés vers des pays tiers de la région. Cet accord spectaculaire marque la première phase du plan américain pour Gaza, porté par Donald Trump. Invité exceptionnel au Parlement israélien, le président américain a été accueilli par de longues ovations. Lors de son discours, il s'est félicité du succès de cette opération, qualifiée par les autorités israéliennes de « moment historique », et l'a présentée comme le fruit d'un engagement diplomatique de longue haleine. Donald Trump capitalise sur cet événement à fort impact émotionnel. Mais comment cette initiative est-elle perçue de l'autre côté de l'Atlantique ? Pourquoi un tel revirement ? « Israël a commencé à aller beaucoup trop loin en bombardant le Qatar » Pendant des mois et des mois, les États-Unis ont apporté un soutien inconditionnel à Israël notamment les Républicains et Donald Trump. D'après Romuald Sciora, directeur de l'Observatoire politique et géostratégique des États-Unis de l'Iris, plusieurs choses ont changé. D'abord, l'opinion américaine, a été affectée - bien que deux ans après - par les images de la famine à Gaza. « Il y a eu effectivement à ce moment-là une inflexion au sein de l'opinion », estime le chercheur. Ensuite, Donald Trump. « Tout est spectacle et Donald Trump n'a pas réussi à obtenir ce qu'il souhaitait en Ukraine. Il lui fallait un triomphe, essentiellement en vue du Nobel, ou pour montrer qu'il n'avait pas besoin d'un Nobel pour être un grand architecte de la paix », précise le chercheur. Enfin, et c'est sans doute la raison principale, Israël a commencé à aller beaucoup trop loin en bombardant le Qatar. Dans le même temps, depuis déjà, une bonne quinzaine d'années, il y a une distanciation de la nouvelle génération vis-à-vis de la politique israélienne. Pour Romuald Sciora : « Il y a eu des manifestations massives, dans la rue et dans les universités. Même si la répression du gouvernement américain à l'encontre des universités et de ses manifestants n'aura fait qu'accentuer la chose, Trump sait au fond que l'isolement israélien pouvait mener à un isolement américain. » En revanche, avec cet accord, « nous assistons aujourd'hui à un cessez-le-feu, mais nous revenons à la situation qui était celle d'avant le 7 octobre » poursuit-t-il. Surtout, « il n'y a aucun plan d'ensemble pour le conflit israélo-palestinien, et à l'heure qu'il est, Netanyahu a encore les mains libres pour le reste de ses projets ».  « Ce plan est l'acceptation tacite de la colonisation et du statu quo politique israélien » « Surtout, il n'y a pas de paix possible sous le poids d'un génocide. » C'est le titre d'un éditorial à lire dans la Jornada, quotidien mexicain de gauche. Le journaliste ne mâche pas ses mots et pour lui, la « paix » n'existera qu'entre guillemets. Ce plan est surtout « l'acceptation tacite de la perpétuation de la colonisation et du statu quo politique israélien » Et à l'auteur de mettre en garde : « personne dans le monde n'est à l'abri de ces guerres d'extermination » estime-t-il, élargissant la situation aux Zapatistes au Mexique, aux réfugiés climatiques, aux demandeurs d'asile « tous les invisibles en tant que sujets politiques qui deviennent de plus en plus vulnérable dans ce système ». Vulnérables, comme par exemple, les participants à la flottille pour Gaza. Dans El Pais, vous pourrez lire les chroniques d'une arrestation : celle d'un documentariste mexicain qui avait embarqué et explique comment l'armée israélienne les a séquestrés en mer après 32 jours de navigation en direction de Gaza. C'est un récit à la première personne, détaillé, vivant, collectif, illustrant dans le même temps les questionnements internes des participants. « Pourquoi, ne serait-ce qu'un instant, avons-nous pensé que nous pouvions y arriver ? » écrit Carlos Pérez Osorio. Il revient surtout sur cet épisode : lorsqu'il est dans un camion en train d'être expulsé vers la Jordanie avec, à ses cotés, Mandla Mandela, le petit- fils de Nelson Mandela. Ce dernier s'adresse aux gardes israéliens et leur dit : « Souvenez-vous de mon visage car je reviendrai. » L'un d'eux se moque, répond qu'il perd son temps. « Pour cela j'ai tout le temps du monde » rétorque le petit-fils de Mandela. « C'est à ce moment que j'ai compris que cette phrase ne parlait pas seulement de lui, écrit l'auteur, mais aussi des Palestiniens, qui ont mené ce combat bien avant notre naissance. Car la Palestine n'a jamais cessé de revenir : dans la mémoire, dans les rues, dans chaque tentative de reconstruire ce que d'autres détruisent ». « À Gaza, ce sont 90% des habitations qui ont été détruites », rappelle un éditorialiste de Sin Embargo. Alors au moment où Donald Trump se réjouit devant la Knesset, le parlement israélien, avec la mise en œuvre de l'accord de paix, le journaliste insiste sur la complicité des États-Unis. Car « sans leur soutien militaire, financier et diplomatique, Israël ne pourrait continuer à occuper la Palestine et à maintenir sa suprématie militaire ». Aux États-Unis, la répression de Donald Trump s'intensifie à Chicago  C'est le New York Times qui explique comment tout s'est accéléré en à peine quelques semaines à Chicago. Les journalistes ont analysé une centaine de vidéos tournées le mois dernier, examinant l'action de la Garde nationale. « Les arrestations se sont intensifiées, un clandestin a été abattu, des agents de la police des frontières ont patrouillé dans le centre-ville de Chicago » lit-on, « toute la ville est sur le qui-vive ». Alors que dans le même temps, 56 % des habitants de Chicago estiment que ce recours à l'armée américaine et à la Garde nationale pour aider la police locale est inacceptable - c'est le résultat d'un sondage publié dans The Chicago Sun Times. En Haïti, un basculement silencieux dans l'économie politique avec les gangs  Dans un dossier du Nouvelliste, dans leur édition du week-end, on apprend que les gangs haïtiens ne se contentent pas de la violence ou de la simple prise de territoires mais qu'ils ont créé dans le même temps une nouvelle monnaie d'échange que l'auteur appelle « l'attention ». Visibilité, peur, présence médiatique, rumeurs, contrôle social, et ainsi plus d'extorsions. Plusieurs éléments clés expliquent ce changement : d'abord, nous apprend l'article, il y a eu la fusion de deux gangs majeurs, consolidant alors leur emprise sur 90% du territoire haïtien. Ensuite, car ces gangs distribuent des services et imposent alors des taxes, offrant une forme de « gouvernance » là où l'État a déserté. « Les pertes pour l'économie nationale sont immenses », écrit le journaliste. Le problème, c'est que la population finit par s'adapter. Pire, « par tolérer ». Impossible de savoir, en revanche, si c'est par peur ou par nécessité.

El 27 de junio de 1993, Nelson Mandela fue fotografiado estrechando la mano de Percy Yutar, el fiscal que en 1964 lo condenó a prisión. Después de pasar 27 años encarcelado, Mandela eligió perdonar en lugar de vengarse. Su decisión de promover la reconciliación en Sudáfrica, en lugar de alimentar el resentimiento, fue clave para la paz en su país. El perdón no es olvidar lo que nos han hecho ni justificar el daño, sino soltar el peso del rencor para vivir en libertad. Jesús nos enseñó que el perdón es una decisión que libera tanto al ofensor como a quien ha sido herido. Cuando perdonamos, reflejamos el amor de Dios y permitimos que Su paz gobierne nuestro corazón. Tal vez alguien te ha herido profundamente y sientes que es imposible perdonar. Pero recuerda que Dios nos ha perdonado mucho más de lo que podemos imaginar. ¿A quién necesitas perdonar hoy? No permitas que la amargura te robe la paz. Deja que el amor de Dios sane tu corazón y transforme tu vida.La Biblia dice en Efesios 4:32: “Antes sed benignos unos con otros, misericordiosos, perdonándoos unos a otros, como Dios también os perdonó a vosotros en Cristo” (RV1960).

Free speech defenders are losing ground as government pressure mounts. Legal expert Greg Lukianoff reveals why the Kimmel case should terrify everyone.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1216What We Discuss with Greg Lukianoff:The Trump administration used FCC licensing threats and merger approval leverage to force ABC to fire Jimmy Kimmel — a form of "jawboning" where government coerces private entities to censor speech the government itself cannot legally punish.Historically, free speech has been the primary tool for minorities and marginalized groups. Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Frederick Douglass, and Gandhi all relied on free speech to challenge the majority and the powerful.Hate speech laws don't change minds — they drive people into echo chambers where they radicalize further. When people can only discuss controversial views with those who already agree, extremism intensifies rather than diminishes.Over one-third of college students believe violence can be acceptable in response to speech. Two-thirds support shouting down speakers, representing mob censorship that undermines the marketplace of ideas and threatens intellectual discourse.Practice intellectual courage. When encountering disagreeable speech, engage rather than silence. Ask yourself: "Am I safer knowing less about what people think?"

Former US Ambassador Pamela Bridgewater tells her story, from growing up in Fredericksburg during segregation to working with Nelson Mandela.

Interview Summary You know I really like the innovative nature of Food On The Move, and I'm eager for you to tell us more about what it involves. But before we do that, how does a young, highly successful musician turn to battling food insecurity? What led you to create Food On The Move? It took me years to say I even created it. I didn't even use the term founder because I really had this sense of partnership that was a part of how it came to be. But I did found or 'start' Food On The Move because I have just a deep sense of gratitude in my life experience and also maybe a calling? I call it the tap on the shoulder that said there's more for you to do. There's more for me to do. And I didn't really know what that meant. I wanted to invest in Oklahoma and where we're from because as a musician, first you travel, you leave, you go out, you connect with people all over the world. But there's something about building and doing well for your community from the town you're from. And I was inspired by a former US ambassador. A man named Edward Perkins, who was an incredible representative of our country. He worked in some of the most difficult parts of the world representing the US and working with other nations. And his story struck me so deeply because he found ways to partner and transform communities as an ambassador. And I got to know him after his time as an ambassador because he was teaching as a professor at OU (Oklahoma University), in Oklahoma. And I asked him, I said - I want to honor your life. I want to learn from you. If I was to begin to really impact my community, Oklahoma where I'm from and maybe beyond, where would you begin? And he said, I would start with food. That's so interesting. You know, your concept of partnership is so interesting. I'd like to dive into that a little bit deeper in a little bit. But first, tell us about your organization and what it does, how it works, what it tries to accomplish. Yes. So, inspired by Ambassador Perkins' example, we set out to ask the right questions more than have the answers. And in 2014, I just basically cold called everyone in the community that worked in food - from the food bank to the food pantries and said ‘help me understand the gaps.' Help me understand where it's hard to accomplish change. And the term food desert began coming up more and more. And food deserts are communities without grocery stores. So, think of it as the canary in the mine. Sort of when a grocery store goes, the neighborhood is declining. Because they're small margin organizations they have a hard time staying afloat and when they go it's hard to bring them back because you need either a company like a big chain or a small business that doesn't have a lot of resources. And oftentimes that decline continues, and it impacts the community. So, with Food On The Move I basically brought together partners to create an access point in food deserts where it's was all in kind. From food trucks that could bring great, tasty food and give people dignity and excitement and energy, to partners that are doing food safety training and teaching people to cook. And places like Oklahoma State University extension where they train people about how to prepare food because they may not know. And so, all these partners came together, and we basically spent five years just learning and serving people in those communities. And focusing on an environment that was not about raising a bunch of money; it was really about who is already in this space that we can garner relationships with and get to know the communities. And now those events continue to be flagships. We call them food and resource festivals. They are a pay-as-you-can. You show up, you get access to fresh produce, you have food trucks, you have wraparound services. You have people that are in the community, in different nonprofits, for-profits, and government organizations that we all collaborate with. And we reach people where they are while serving and getting to know them and learning from them. And through those relationships, through those events - which we still do - what it's brought us to is the innovation and education side, and ultimately transformation. We realized in order to change food deserts, end food deserts, bring grocery stores back, that we had to get to the heart of the food system. Which is we had to be teaching people to grow things again, rebuild the local foundation of farmers being trained, use new, innovative systems like indoor growing and aquaponics, hydroponics. And basically, we had to kind of build the foundation back that's been lost since post World War II in our community, like many places. And that means a food hub to bridge farmers to distributors. That means training those farmers for the future. And it ultimately means building a new model for a grocery store. So, we are at the heart of that now with a project we call Food Home, where we are building a campus that is like a microcosm of the food system. Hopefully could be the end of this year, we'll see. Construction is always tricky. But, for sure by the start of first quarter next year, we'll be opening a 10,000 square foot urban farm, which is a training facility, and producing hundreds of thousands of pounds of food every year, and this is really the launchpad for future farmers. My God, I mean, and one of those things you mentioned would be wonderful to dive into and talk about a lot. Because I mean, each is impressive in its own right. But you bring them together, you're probably doing some of the most extensive, impressive things I know of around the country. Let me ask how you address the fundamental issue that we've actually faced ourselves. So communities often feel set upon by outsiders coming in to help. You know, it could be a philanthropy, it could be universities, it could be somebody, you know, who's just coming in well-meaning, wanting to help. But nonetheless may not know the communities or understand the realities of day-to-day life and things like that. And people from communities have often told us that 'we're in the best position to come up with solutions that will work for the members of our own community.' How did you work through those things? Well, this is always why my story elevator pitch tends to be too long. Because I want to actually talk about that element. It's not super elevator pitchy because what it involves is building relationships and trust and what I first learned from Ambassador Perkins. I'll tell you a small story of his example and it really rocked me. I asked him where would you start if you wanted to change community? Because I'd learned from his story that he had actually done it. He was sent to South Africa at the heart of the Apartheid Movement to with a mission from at the time President Ronald Reagan, to free Nelson Mandela from prison and help dismantle the Apartheid system. This is about as high a mark as anybody could have. And he had no policy. They said you're going to make policy. And what he did was so extraordinary, and I think is the mark of his success. And that's, to answer your question, he said, I recognized that every ambassador had held court. You are one step away from the president of the United States, which means you're always the most powerful person in the room. And other ambassadors, he'd ask them to come to him. But you had this deep divide between Black and white, deep divide between economics. And so, what he did was he told his team when he went to South Africa, he said, put the American flags on the front of the car, roll the windows down and take me to the townships. Take me to the neighborhoods. They need to know I'm here. And he took the time to build real relationships and build trust with communities. Black, white, rich, and poor, you know, old and young. He really did the time. And so that model, though obviously South Africa is a deeply entrenched community that, you know, especially that time. And this is kind of world politics, but I listened to that. And I thought, wow, we have a divide in our own community. And it's true of so many American cities. And where people, they see an area and they say that's not my community. They're going to come to me. And so, Food On The Move is built on we will build a partnership-based foundation which is like a block party where you walk up, and I'm a musician, I'm a DJ. So, we have a DJ playing music, we have food trucks. It smells great. You have smiling faces. You have a feeling that when you go there, you're not there, like, I need help and I'm in a soup kitchen. It's like there's a community party and you get invited and everyone's available to go there because if you want to give, you can go. If you don't have a dollar in your pocket, you go. And everybody leaves with the same treatment. And that foundation, the way we go about building those relationships, that is the heart and soul of how we are getting to the question and then trying to answer: we need more grocery stores, and we need more farmers. Because we heard it from the neighborhood. And I'll wrap up the answer a little bit which is to say we have multiple community farms as well as our own training farms. And we've worked in middle schools to teach young people to grow things with high-end aquaponics. You know, statistically the worse school in the city. But we've seen it just rocket people to engagement and better education and being fired up to come to school. But the community grow beds are the real test because you can't just drop a community grow bed and say, ‘Hey, isn't this awesome? Here's your grow bed.' You have to stay engaged with community, but you also have to invite them to be participants. And so, we work with our neighbors. We treat one another as neighbors, and you are right, it is wrought with pick your cliche. You know, the complex of the outsider coming in with money. The contrast between racial issues and economic issues. It's so wrought with problems potentially. But I believe that real solutions are possible when you build relationships. It sounds like one of the, you didn't say this directly, but one of the most important things you did was listen. Tell me about that a little more. Well, yes. I mean, I said it. I kind of coined this phrase now because I realize it's so true. We really started with I think good questions, not good answers. And so, the listening... first of all, the listening started with people that were doing work. So, if you went to the food bank, the question wasn't, ‘hey, we're here to help.' This is what we want to do. It was what's going on? You're the food bank, you guys have been here since the '80s. And hey, you're the health department. Hey, you're a food truck, like, what do you see? And I determined early that we needed to always have three pillars. We need to always have representation of for-profit, non-profit, and government agencies at some level. And so, a food truck is a business, right? They understand how hard it is to get people to show up and make a living, right? And you know, a nonprofit or an agency they know about service, they know about the stats. And frankly, however you are on the political spectrum, the government agencies, whatever they happen to be, they have a role to play. They have, whether big or small. Again, people of different walks of life have different views on that. But they should be a part of the conversation no matter what. And so, that was the first step. And then I like to say, an example Kelly, of kind of the dynamic shift is - if you walk up to somebody you barely know, you're not going to tell them like, ‘hey man, I'm not sure about that shirt. Or you got something in your tooth,' you know? Or, ‘have you really considered redecorating your house? Like, it's kind of dated.' Those are things you get to say to friends. You know, you tell a friend, ‘hey man, you know, suck it in. You're taking a picture.' You know? And so at the foundation, the questions we were asking were also why do you think this has happened? Why is a neighborhood that was a thriving new neighborhood in 1965 now dangerous and in decline. And talking with elders. And they became and have become some of our greatest advocates. And you know what? It's not flashy. You show up and you just keep showing up. And you show up when it's rainy and you show up when it's cold. And at some point people go. Wow. Like they're actually going to do this. So, you know, we're still doing it. We're not there. There's no finish line on this. So consistent with what we found in our own work about the importance of showing up. I'm happy that you raised that particular term. Speaking of terms, when I introduced you there, I used this term that I pulled right from your website about the legacy issues created by food insecurity. What do you mean by that? Yes. So legacy issues. You know, people develop heart disease, diabetes, frankly anxiety, ADHD/ADD things. A lot of stuff that's diet and a lot of things that's habit. So, if you grow up in a house that nobody ever cooked really. Because the neighborhood lost its store. Mom and dad were busy. Maybe a single parent home. You know, look, my wife and I have blessed, we have seven children. Wow. And we have a full house. And even with, you know, plenty of resources and plenty of support, it's still hard to do right. It's still hard to eat well. You know, you're running and you're gunning. And so legacy issues are habits. Eating habits. Consumption habits. By the way, poverty does not discriminate on race. Poverty hits whoever it hits, right? And so, Black and white, different backgrounds you'd be speaking with somebody that, 'like I've never seen a red bell pepper. I didn't know that existed. I've never seen What is That's a kiwi. What's a kiwi? I don't want to eat that.' You know? And so, the legacy issues are health, habits, education. Also, if you've never had access to resources, if you've never had an uncle that became an attorney or somebody that knew how to manage money because your neighborhood was a history of decline. You just don't know anybody. Or even worse, you have communities because of poverty that everybody in your family knows somebody that was in jail or was headed to jail because of their climate, their environment. And things that occur because of limited, you know, resources. And things that happen among, you know, communities with less available to them. And you have to take judgment and just throw it across the room. Just completely eject any sense of judgment. And recognize that somebody that's grown up with those different parameters, they're carrying those around. So, you're trying to restart. You're trying to begin again. And say, you know, let's get us back to having as little baggage behind us. Let's get diabetes out of the way. Let's get heart disease (out of the way) and we're going to do it by eating good food. Or getting educated. And it's not going to happen quick. It's going to happen through probably an entire generation if we're lucky. Now, let me ask a related question about dignity because this comes up in the way you've spoken about this. And in the way our country has addressed hunger. I mean, going back to when the War on Hunger began really in the 1960s, it was a nation's compassionate response to a very real issue that so many people faced. But the solution wasn't to try to give people more financial means so they could buy their own food and not have to face this. It was to give them food. But to do so in ways that really did destroy dignity in many ways. How are you addressing that and how does that term figure into the work you're doing? Well, I love the way you couch that. And unfortunately, among these discussions, people glom onto certain aspects if they have their own sort of paradigm that's ingrained. And one, you have to throw out ideology and focus on, I think, common sense. And the short answer is we believe in teach a man to fish as the philosophy. There is no way to ultimately change things if your goal is not aligned with creating opportunity, creating, transitioning folks that have not been able to support their families, to finding ways to transform that. And that comes by getting to know one another. That comes with creating education. And that comes with looking at the whole system. And so, when I brought sort of to my team this answer or this proposal of why we need to build Food Home. The Food Home campus. It wasn't just that I had some epiphany that I walked into the desert and came back with an idea. It was built around the work we were doing. And we already had somebody that wanted to build a grocery store. We already had somebody that was farm focused, thinking about food hub to bridge the gap with farmers. We had a study that was done by a local foundation that said we don't have enough farmers right now to get all the local food. And we need local because it's more affordable. We shouldn't be paying for our lettuce to travel from California to Oklahoma. We don't need to do that. And so, dignity and building the transition, the future, is about looking at the whole and being willing to do, I think, the hard work. Which is to realize our food, our food economy has to change. And recognizing that opportunity is not a bad word, you know? Economic investment in communities. These are good things. And at the same time, you meet people where they are. You meet them right where they are. And when COVID happened, our pitch about building Food Home and building the food systems and training people to grow things, it pivoted a little bit. Because people saw for the first time in a generation what it's like when the food's not there. Like you're in Oklahoma and we were the distribution partner for the USDA doing Farm to Family boxes. Food On The Move was. We had trucks that were designated for us from farmers that had been supported by government purchasing to bring food to food banks, and to resources, to communities. And we had a truck that was a state away and we were supposed to go get that truck and give it to people that needed it in our neighborhood in Oklahoma. And we were going guys, if we had a food home, a food hub, a bridge between local farmers, every community would know where their food is coming from. And so there is a food security side of this discussion as well which is that we need to have sovereignty. We need to have structure that gives us access and that builds long-term economic sustainability. And Oklahoma is a great example of this. We used to have a very thriving local farm community system. All my grandparents, my parents, they went to farmer's markets. They bought great food. And many of those folks working in that land because there's not a food hub that bridges this medium farmer to the distributors - they've lost economic ability to scale. And they do better to sell their land to a developer and grow sod or put a bunch of houses on it. And that has got to change. You know, you reinforce the idea that there's a lot of ingenuity in communities. And lots of good ideas about how to solve the problems. And many times, the people that are wanting to help communities can be helped best by just supporting the ideas that are already there. Because, as I said, we've encountered so much ingenuity from people in the communities who've been thinking about these issues for a long time. Let me ask something. You kind of began this by talking about food deserts and grocery stores leaving areas. And you've come up with a lot of creative ways of compensating for the loss of grocery stores. But what about correcting that problem. What about getting more grocery stores back into these areas? Is that something that you guys deal with? That's ultimately our mission. I mean, I say the mission is the solution so that I don't want to put it into one square box called a store. But the store departing is at the heart of the key question we're asking. Why? And so, the Food Home campus is a four phased vision. And the first two phases are underway, or about to be open with the food hub and the urban farm. The second two are a community hub, which is teaching and training people to prepare and cook food better, getting urban and rural together. And the last phase, which started as the first, by the way. It began as the first thinking we're just going to get a store. We realized you had to get the food chain right before you could build a better store. And so the model for a store, we believe, is going to be probably a hybrid between a fresh delivery and a physical place that is there living right at the heart of a neighborhood. Let's do an update on this here as we get to opening that door, because I believe what we've seen is the umbrella that allows the small store is still needed. That's, kind of, we're stepping in with a food hub. We're stepping in with a bigger footprint, buying power, larger volume, purchasing local. But really entrepreneurs where single operators are invested in owning and operating that store. They're also committed more to that store. It's not just a corporate line item. I'm interested in studying, frankly, some of the really smart food franchisees that have understood the power of creating economic models that are sustainable. But you have to connect them to a bigger umbrella to help support that medium grocer. It's going to be a combination of those things. But yeah, we have to get stores where you can actually buy your food and it is affordable and it is quality. Quality becomes an interesting issue here. And I haven't looked at the research literature on this for a little while. When I did, there was some research looking at what happened to the quality of nutrition in neighborhoods where grocery stores had left or had come back in. And it didn't seem to make a lot of difference in terms of overall nutrition profile of the people there. It provided some real benefits. Access. People didn't have to go a long way to get their groceries. Costs tended to come down, so there were some real benefits aside from nutrition. But just focusing on nutrition, of course a big supermarket brings more fresh fruits and vegetables. But it also brings aisle after aisle of highly processed, highly calorie dense foods that aren't necessarily helpful. So, the fact that you're working on the healthy food part of the equation and finding ways to get foods from farms to people, not necessarily from a big food processing plant. From farms to people, is really an important part of the overall picture, isn't it? Fresh produce is the sort of heart and soul of the food dilemma. And so yes, it is very, very tricky. You know, a little bit like how do you raise a child to have good habits? We're all trying to have good habits and we still eat hamburgers and fries because they're delicious. So, going back to dignity, I do not believe, and this is my perspective mixed with the data and the experience. I don't believe, the opinion side, in deciding whether or not people deserve certain things. And early on when we started the food pop-up events, I suggested, 'hey, call the food trucks. Have the pizza truck come have because they're awesome and they're mobile and they can show up.' And we had some folks that were partners that kind of went well, but that's greasy food and that's, you know, it's X, Y, and Z. And this is what I said to that: it's like, look, our job is first to meet people and treat them like we would want to be treated. And then we work on the produce. And so, with a grocery store, you're absolutely right. You can't just drop good food somewhere and think everybody's going to get healthy. Most people are going to eat what they like. But mostly the barrier to entry on healthy food is economics. People do not have the dollars to buy the kale or to buy the fresh tomatoes. Most people actually do, find that they will, you know, consume that food. But you have to get the generational conversation happening where families have grown up seeing fresh produce. Cooking with fresh produce. And they can actually buy it. And that's not going to happen unless we get food closer. Because the closer food allows us to cut down the margin that's going to transportation and make quality food more affordable. Makes good sense. So you've been at this a while. What have you learned? How do you look at things differently now than when you started? I learned that creating change is not for the faint of heart. First of all, you better really sort of revel in a challenge. And also, we've touched on several of the elements of what I've learned. You have to build trust. You can't expect people to just change just because you say so. You also have to be really interested in learning. Like, not just learning because you have to, but you have to be interested in understanding. And I think that's at the heart of getting to solutions. It's not even just asking the right question. It's actually being interested in the answer to that question. Like it's wanting to genuinely know. And so, these are all things I put in and I'll say the last, which is not the sexy one. It's difficult to build a good organization that's sustainable. And we've spent the second half of the Food On The Move journey building a strong team, hiring the right CEO, building a great board, having governance, having sustainability in your culture. I mean, these are business things and you know, I'm the founder. I'm a board member. I'm at the heart of who we are, but we've had to build a team. And so, anybody that wants to make things sustainable or create sustainable change, and this would be my last takeaway to your question, is you have to grow past yourself. You have to be anticipating giving that away. Growing much, much further than the bottleneck of the big idea person. But you also have to stay in stewardship mode. So, that's kind of where I am now is how do we make this continue to grow towards the solutions we're hoping for? And how do I stay engaged, fired up, focused, inspired to get the team involved, but also trust people on the team to do what they have been asked to do. I'd like to pick up on something that you mentioned along the way, which is work that you're doing on urban farming, and you mentioned things like hydroponics and aquaponics. Tell us a little bit more about that. Wo we came across hydroponics and aquaponics because when you look at growing methodologies, one of the challenges we have is our eating habits have changed. People don't just eat seasonally. We've become accustomed to getting strawberries year-round and getting all these different flavors. And you can't expect that that's just going to happen. We're not just going to change that and make everybody eat the harvest of Ohio or the harvest of Tulsa. Like we all expect good food when we do go to the store. The economics of food means people are ready to buy certain things. And for a sustainable grocery store, you need to have the things that people will buy. So, aquaponics and hydroponics are new technologies that were pioneered to create high production and high volume in areas that might have different climates. You can grow year round. The things that grow best are leafy greens, but you can grow all kinds of things. Tomatoes, you know, vining plants. Cucumbers. You can grow incredible amounts of food. A large portion of your food can be grown through these indoor systems, and they cost more to start than a traditional dirt farm. But once established they produce year round, they are more resilient with obviously pests and weather and things like that. With aquaponics and hydroponics you have systems that naturally are organic. They need to be organic because that's how they function, you know? Fish tanks, you know, that are naturally fertilizing. The fish are giving the plants what they need. This is cool stuff. So, we were led to those systems because sustainability and better food and more of it for small communities in a place like Oklahoma where you have hot and cold, and if you can grow year round, then you could have a cash crop that somebody could build a business with and provide better for that store. And not be buying it from Mexico or California. I mean, God bless Mexico and California, but we're putting too much food on a truck. And it's older than it should be, and it's sprayed with stuff because it needs to look good when it shows up, and that's hurting everybody. So, we need new methodologies. Well, and not only are you producing food, but it's a community driven solution because it's right there. People in the community can own it, can run it, can work at it, and things like that. And just it's mere presence probably signals something very positive that is good economically good nutritionally, but also good psychologically, I think. So, let me ask one parting question. Hunger has been an issue in the United States for a long, long time. And it continues to be. And now there have been even more cutbacks than before and the SNAP program and things like that. Are you optimistic that we can address this problem and do you think a local very creative and innovative local solution that you're talking about in Oklahoma, can that be exported and replicated and are you optimistic? Let me just ask you that. Are you optimistic is an interesting question because I don't think we can afford not to be optimistic. If you ask a parent, are you optimistic your child will eat, there's no choice there. Your child will eat. Or you will die trying to feed them. And I've spoken to, you know, leadership groups and rotary clubs and nonprofits about different aspects of my journey. And I think the heart of this issue is to not make it an option that we don't solve this. We cannot talk about feeding our community. And by the way, I don't mean feeding them just like I said, through nonprofit, but changing the culture and eliminating hunger in this country. And really, it's facing hunger. We can't make it an option that we don't. My perspective is, I think it's going to take, solutions like what Food On the Move is doing, which is at the heart of understanding our food systems. And we are definitely building. Everything we're doing is to try and have a model hoping that what we're doing in Oklahoma, which has a lot of parallels to, you know, whether you're talking about North Carolina or Ohio or Missouri, or Houston. All these communities have a lot of similarities. We believe that if we can show that you build trust, you then develop models, you then train future farmers. You build an infrastructure to launch and bridge the gap between small and medium farmers. And then here's a model for a better store that's sustainable. We believe that we're going to be able to show that that is a long road, but the road that is maybe less traveled but needed. And that could be the difference that's needed. So, it's fingers are crossed. BIO Tulsa native Taylor Hanson grew up in a home where artistic expression was encouraged and celebrated.

Stevie was born in 1950 in the industrial city of Saginaw in Michigan, USA. Even from a young age, he displayed a great love of music - first with a church choir, and then teaching himself how to play a range of instruments, including the harmonica, piano and drums - all before the age of 10.He was just 11 years old when he was discovered and signed by the legendary Motown record label - and the rest is history.Across a career that's spanned seven decades, he's sold over 100 million records worldwide, won numerous awards - including multiple Grammys, a Golden Globe and even an Oscar, and received the US Presidential Medal of Freedom too.Over the years, Stevie has also used his platform to campaign on social issues close to his heart. He's long-advocated for greater rights for disabled people around the world, and he successfully spearheaded a movement to create a national holiday in the US to recognise the birthday of the civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He was also a vocal critic of apartheid in South Africa and called for the release of Nelson Mandela.In this wide-ranging interview, Stevie discusses his journey to stardom, where he gets his creative spark, and speaking out against injustice.Thank you to the Sidetracked team for their help in making this programme.
