One of the most critical parts of a democracy is the right to dissent. But if democratic norms weaken, that right can become harder to exercise. And when authoritarianism creeps into a government, dissent can get dangerous.Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison for resisting Apartheid before becoming South Africa's first Black president. Before becoming president of Czechoslovakia, Vaclav Havel was jailed for his dissident writing under Communist rule.But there are also dissidents everywhere around us here at home. Protesters demonstrated against ICE in cities across the U.S. last week. And an estimated 8 million people turned up worldwide for “No Kings” protests in March.So, what does it actually take to stand up to a government that's stopped playing by the rules? And when does it make a difference? We speak with the authors of the new book “On Courage: How To Be A Dissident in an Age of Fear.”Find more of our programs online.

Every year, July 18 is marked as the Nelson Mandela International Day. It is a moment not only to celebrate the life of South Africa's first democratically elected president, but also to reflect on the values he championed which include justice, reconciliation and service to humanity. This year's commemorations included a live concert at London's Trafalgar Square, where artists gathered to honour the man affectionately known as Madiba. We speak to South African musician Asanda Mvana, better known as Msaki, about the role music can play in preserving Nelson Mandela's legacy as well as South Africa's minister of Sports, Arts and Culture, Gayton McKenzie. And how do scientists go about discovering new species of animals? We hear from Junior Amboko, the scientist who named the recently discovered species of monkey in the Democratic Republic of Congo.Presenter: Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Keikantse Shumba, Victor Chege, Ayuba Iliya and Blessing Aderogba Senior Producers: Caroline Mwangi and Charles Gitonga Technical Producer: Maxwell Onyango Editors: Rhoda Odhiambo and Maryam Abdalla
On this day, 20 July 1979, Native American political prisoner Leonard Peltier escaped from Lompoc Federal Correctional Institution, in California, with two other detainees, one of whom, Bobby Gene Garcia, was shot to death by a guard. Peltier, a leading member of the American Indian Movement, had been sentenced to two consecutive life sentences for the deaths of two Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents. He had been warned by fellow Native American prisoner Standing Deer (a.k.a. Robert Wilson) that there was contract on his life in the prison.Peltier's original trial was riddled with inconsistencies and distortions. For example, an FBI ballistics expert claimed during the trial that a shell case found near the bodies matched Peltier's rifle, but his report stating that the cartridge did not match was withheld from the jury. And three witnesses who placed Peltier near the scene of the crime later recanted, stating that the FBI had tied them to chairs and coerced their testimony. The legal misconduct was so severe that Peltier has received support from individuals and groups as diverse as Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, the European Parliament, and the United Nations Commissioner for Human Rights. Peltier was recaptured three days later. Peltier eventually had his sentence commuted by President Joe Biden in 2025, and was released from prison to house arrest.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9281/leonard-peltier-escapes-custodyOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

Foredrag ved Tore Linné EriksenHelt fra europeerne først koloniserte Sør-Afrika, fratok de svarte sør-afrikanere deres jord, rettigheter og verdighet, en prosess som ble intensivert fra raseskillepolitikken apartheid ble formelt innført i 1948.Kampen for like rettigheter, jordreform og mot rasisme ble hovedsakelig ført av bevegelsen African National Congress (ANC), og var både politisk og militær. I dag har bevegelsen og frontfigurene heltestatus, men det er ikke mange tiår siden de var langt mer omstridte, og Nelson Mandela sto på USAs terrorliste.Ungdomsopprøret som startet i Soweto i 1976 ble både et symbol og et startskudd på den internasjonale motstanden mot apartheid, der også Norge deltok aktivt, særlig fra Fellesrådet for det sørlige Afrika, Den Norske Kirke og deler av fagbevegelsen. Mot slutten av apartheidsystemet gikk Gro Harlem Brundtlands regjering med i den globale boikott-kampanjen. Men har vi nordmenn lett for å se vel rosenrødt på vårt eget bidrag?Tore Linné Eriksen er professor emeritus ved OsloMet, og har arbeidet med Afrikas historie gjennom et langt liv. Han var sentral i solidaritetsarbeidet, og har blant annet gitt ut bøker om Sør-Afrikas historie og en biografi om Nelson Mandela. Nå vil han utvide og nyansere det vi lærte på skolen om kampen mot apartheid.I denne foredragsserien ser Litteraturhuset nærmere på noen av de viktigste protestbevegelsene i det forrige århundret, og hvilken betydning disse kampene har for vår tid. Arrangementet er støttet av NORAD. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A child's mutilated torso surfaced from the Thames near Shakespeare's Globe in 2001, and more than two decades later no one has been convicted of killing the boy investigators could only call Adam.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TorsoInTheThamesREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3h6yrmk5FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Most people, when they think of the end of their lives, want to feel that they have accomplished something of significance. To leave a lasting legacy. But it is much more rare for someone to accomplish something significant – after they are dead! (Done By The Dead) *** Mrs. Elizabeth G. Wharton was a pillar of society in Baltimore, Maryland in the late 1800s. That is, until she was accused of murdering General William Scott Ketchum. (The Baltimore Borgia) *** For every legitimate and fascinating find by geologists, there seems to be a fraudulent find somewhere else trying to fool the masses. This has been a problem since geology became a thing – and one of the most fascinating of these true tales is the one about Baringer's Lying Stones. (The Lying Stones) *** A strange, ape-like creature with glowing eyes in England might really be, as some believe, a specter of the night. (Man-Monkey of the Night) *** It's hard to understand how human sacrifice has ever been a reality in any point in history – but what if you were to learn that evidence of it showed up in London, England… in 2001? (Torso In The River) *** A would-be geisha murders her lover… but the events leading up to and during the death make for a fascinatingly dark story. (The Murderess Geisha) *** When it comes to spectral animals, we're more than familiar with black dogs or hell hounds, ghostly cats, horses carrying a headed or headless phantom, even a ghost bear rumored to haunt the Tower of London… but have you ever heard of the American Southwest's ghost camels?

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: January, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness moves from ghost camels haunting the Arizona desert to corpses that kept making history after death, a Baltimore poisoning that gripped a courtroom for weeks, a professor fooled by carved stones, a child's murder in the Thames that London police have never solved, a Tokyo geisha who killed the man she loved, and a glowing-eyed creature on an English canal bridge.It opens in the American southwest, where the U.S. War Department imported some seventy-two camels in 1857 to haul supplies, only to turn the animals loose in the desert when the Civil War broke out and the soldiers tired of their foul temper and habit of spooking horses. Wild camels roamed Arizona for decades afterward, and one became legend as the Red Ghost — a beast blamed for trampling a woman to death in 1883 and later seen carrying a dead man lashed to its back, a rider who eventually decayed until a human skull dropped from the saddle in front of a group of startled prospectors. An Arizona farmer finally shot the animal in 1893, still wearing the leather straps that had held its corpse rider in place.From there the episode turns to figures who kept shaping the world after they died. A gang of Chicago counterfeiters led by "Big Jim" Kennally plotted in 1876 to steal Abraham Lincoln's body from his Springfield tomb and ransom it for a jailed engraver, foiled by a Secret Service informant working for the very agency Lincoln himself had signed into existence. A grave robber broke into George Washington's crypt at Mount Vernon in 1830 hunting the president's skull and made off with the wrong one. The British philosopher Jeremy Bentham left instructions to have his body dissected and mummified, and it sits on display at University College London to this day. And in the ninth century Pope Stephen VI dug up his predecessor Formosus, dressed the rotting corpse in papal vestments, propped it up for trial, found it guilty, and had it thrown into the Tiber.Next comes Baltimore in 1871, where Elizabeth Wharton, a respected society widow, hosted General William Scott Ketchum in her home on Hamilton Place until he fell suddenly ill and died with twenty grains of tartar emetic in his stomach — fifteen is enough to kill. Police discovered she had bought sixty grains days earlier, and a financial advisor named Eugene Van Ness nearly died the same way after she served him a drink. Her forty-two-day poison trial in Annapolis exhausted the medical and chemical experts of the day, and after deliberating through the night the jury acquitted her of murder.The episode then crosses to Germany, where Johann Beringer, a celebrated professor at the University of Würzburg, spent 1725 collecting strange carved stones dug up on Mount Eibelstadt by teenage boys he had hired — figures of birds, lizards, comets, and the name of God rendered in Hebrew. Convinced they were the handiwork of God himself, he published a book on them called the Lithographiae Wirceburgensis, only to learn the nearly two thousand stones had been planted by two envious colleagues, J. Ignatz Roderick and Johann Georg von Eckhart, who thought him an arrogant know-it-all and wanted to humble him.From an academic hoax the episode moves to an unsolved horror. On September 21st, 2001, a child's headless, limbless torso surfaced from the Thames near the Globe Theatre, wrapped in orange cloth, and London's Metropolitan Police could give the boy no name but Adam. Forensic analysis of poison and minerals in his remains traced him to the Benin region of Nigeria and showed he had been paralyzed and drained of blood in what investigators believed was a muti ritual killing. Nelson Mandela made an international appeal for information, and traffickers including Kingsley Ojo and a caregiver named Joyce Osagiede were investigated, but no one has ever been convicted and the boy's true identity has never been confirmed.The episode carries that darkness into 1936 Tokyo, where Sada Abe strangled her lover Kichizo Ishida in an inn after a days-long affair, then took a kitchen knife to his body and carried a severed part of him away in her handbag. Her capture two days later set off a national obsession the papers called "Sada mania," and her testimony about killing the man she refused to share became a bestseller in a country where such candor was scandalous. She was sentenced to six years, served her time as a model prisoner, and vanished from public life sometime after 1970.The episode closes on a cold English night in January 1879, when a furniture hauler crossing Bridge 39 over the Shropshire Union Canal near the village of Ranton was charged by a shaggy, ape-like creature with glowing eyes that leapt onto his cart and terrified his horse. When he swung his whip at the thing, the lash passed straight through its body, and the creature bolted down toward the canal and vanished. The folklorist Charlotte Burne later learned from the village constable that the sightings had begun only days after a man drowned in that same canal, in a place where people believed a violent death could send someone back in the shape of a beast.
Die sekretaris-generaal van die Verenigde Nasies, António Guterres, het die wêreldgemeenskap gevra om oudpresident Nelson Mandela se visie van 'n regverdige, inklusiewe, gelyke en vreedsame wêreld uit te leef. Hy het Saterdag op Nelson Mandela Internasionale Dag beklemtoon dat die bekamping van armoede nie liefdadigheid is nie, maar 'n daad van geregtigheid en gesamentlike verantwoordelikheid. Guterres sê hy was nog altyd geïnspireer deur Madiba se lewe en oortuiging dat alles moontlik is wanneer mense saamstaan:
À Soweto, au sud-ouest de Johannesburg, la Ubuntu Farm veut développer l'économie de ce township hérité des politiques ségrégationnistes de l'apartheid à travers l'agriculture. Francis Marsh s'est lancée seule dans cette aventure, sur le terrain de son ancien lycée. Rapidement, elle engage deux de ses voisines, et le trio de la Ferme Ubuntu est créé. Ensemble, elles créent de l'emploi, apprennent l'agriculture aux plus jeunes, avec comme seule boussole la philosophie Ubuntu chère à Nelson Mandela. De notre envoyé spécial à Soweto, En Afrique du Sud, la petite ferme Ubuntu accueille une vingtaine de volontaires, dans la bonne humeur, pour planter de nouveaux arbres : des citronniers ou encore des abricotiers. Cette ferme communautaire ne cesse de s'agrandir : en à peine deux ans, Francis Marsh et sa petite équipe ont déjà planté environ un hectare sur les quatre disponibles. « Nous avons commencé avec de la coriandre, un peu de chou et aussi des épinards. Dans cette serre, il y a aussi des betteraves ou des carottes. Notre rêve, c'est de voir ce champ entièrement planté », explique Francis. Avant les fruits et les légumes, c'est d'abord une idée qui germe dans la tête de Francis. Tous les jours, elle voit ce terrain vague que son ancien lycée n'entretient plus et décide de prendre les choses en main. Elle étudie les sciences de la terre, contacte le principal du lycée et lui propose ce projet agricole. « Nous travaillons au développement économique de nos townships. Nous voulons que les gens travaillent ici et gagnent leur vie ici. Car si nous parvenons à créer davantage d'emplois dans nos quartiers, je suis convaincue que la violence des gangs et tout ce qui va avec, la criminalité, diminueront à coup sûr », souligne-t-elle. Dans ces communautés marginalisées, frappées par le chômage de masse et en proie aux gangs, les habitants font face à un manque cruel d'opportunités. Pour Shaen Smith, aujourd'hui fière secrétaire d'Ubuntu Farm, l'agriculture lui a presque sauvé la vie. « Je traversais des épreuves personnelles et cette expérience, vous savez, mettre les mains dans la terre et manger les légumes que l'on a plantés, de ses propres mains, m'a vraiment transformée. Cela m'a redonné espoir », confie-t-elle. Ce n'est donc pas un hasard si, au moment de lancer le projet, Francis choisit sans aucune hésitation le nom Ubuntu : une philosophie qui prône des valeurs d'humanité, de respect et d'entraide, chères à Nelson Mandela. « Il était passionné par cet Ubuntu. C'est pourquoi je me suis dit : ''Utilisons cela'', parce qu'il y croyait vraiment, et cela faisait aussi partie de son héritage. Nous ne devons pas laisser cet héritage disparaître », rappelle Francis. Avec ses grandes bottes blanches tachées de terre, Francis marche alors dans les pas de l'ancien président, pour changer profondément le quotidien de sa communauté.

En langue locale, Rolihlahla signifie celui qui tire la branche d'un arbre, autrement dit, le fauteur de trouble. Et on peut le dire, il va bien porter son nom.

Les Noirs n'ont pas le droit de vote, pas le droit d'exister à égalité. Mandela, lui, rêve déjà d'autre chose. Avocat, militant, prisonnier, pendant 27 ans, il devient le visage et la voix de la lutte contre l'Apartheid. Mais ce qui frappe, c'est que quand il sort de prison, en 1990, il ne réclame ni vengeance, ni revanche. Il appelle à l'unité, à la dignité, au pardon. 4 ans plus tard, il devient le premier président noir d'Afrique du Sud. Une image qui fait le tour du monde, celle d'un homme qui a su transformer sa colère en force morale. Le 18 juillet 1918, ce n'est pas seulement un grand homme qui naît.

Namibië se president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, het mense aangespoor om 67 minute te wy aan ander wanneer die wêreld vandag Nelson Mandeladag vier. Sy het Vrydag in Pretoria gesê dit vereer Nelson Mandela se 67 jaar van diens en toewyding aan geregtigheid, gelykheid en menswaardigheid. Nandi-Ndaitwah vra mense om sy nalatenskap te eerbiedig deur deernisvolle, betekenisvolle optrede en 'n gemeenskaplike toewyding aan die bou van 'n regverdiger, vreedsamer en meer inklusiewe samelewing:
Ep 290 Peacewarts Lab 7/18/26 - Always Disallow Foolishness: A Rule for Peace Peacewarts Labs are casual review sessions where we dig into the homework from the Peacewarts classes. In this lab, Avis Kalfsbeek walks through some of the assignments from Episodes 287, 288, and 289. Here's what we look up: The "Oakland Unified Restorative Justice" model — and the three classic circle questions used to work through a conflict. The 2003 Women of Liberia Mass Action for Peace — and one specific tactic they used to keep Christian and Muslim women united around a shared goal. Nelson Mandela's first meeting with President P.W. Botha — and one small detail (about the tea, or the greeting) that Mandela used to protect Botha's dignity. Shakespeare Sherpa Club: Just to keep her nerd credentials intact, Avis gives a shout-out to her Shakespeare Sherpa Club. Grab the free downloadable character bookmarks at www.AvisKalfsbeek.com/shakespearesherpa. Always Disallow Foolishness: Avis talks about the track 10 Laws by East Forest, which features the spoken voice of Court Johnson reading the ten explicit laws he lives by. She zeroes in on one of them — Always Disallow Foolishness — and how it connects to global peace. Media Bias Detectors: Avis rounds up some tools for figuring out the bias in the news we take in.

On a very special episode of How To Really Run A City, our hosts soak up the wisdom of renowned 92-year-old former California Speaker of the House and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, a player still at the top of his political game. From jelly bean power plays in front of Ronald Reagan to pressure campaigns to free Nelson Mandela to candid thoughts on how to navigate the Trumpian circus in Washington, D.C., Brown is a well of bipartisan optimism and moral clarity. "I was the guy," Brown told former Atlanta mayor and mentee Kasim Reed, "who could tell you what your bill would do if enacted. And I would support it because it was the right thing to do. And in government, you must always do what is right." "You've laid out so many different examples of doing the right thing," said former Philly Mayor Michael Nutter. "We seem to be somewhat, nationally, dysfunctional these days." "But when you think about Willie Brown," said Citizen Co-Founder Larry Platt, "you think of a happy warrior … someone who fights with a smile on their face. That's what people want." "There's no question, that is my approach," Brown said with a smile. "And besides that, I like to party. No matter where I am, if a party can happen, I'm a participant in that effort." Join us for one of the most memorable and smile-inducing episodes of the podcast, a true masterclass in the art of politics. As cities go, so goes the nation!
Ep 289 Peacewarts: Resonant Charms - The Vocabulary of Dignity (Class 7) In class 7, we explore the "Vocabulary of Dignity" and the three core needs: to be seen, heard, and safe. We analyze Nelson Mandela's micro-practices of respect, including his "Future Self" language and his refusal to use sarcasm or public shaming. We discuss how honorifics and formal address can lower threat chemistry and keep negotiations focused on solutions rather than egos. Homework: Look up Nelson Mandela's first meeting with President P.W. Botha and find one detail about the etiquette Mandela used to preserve Botha's dignity. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write 'no question.' Optional: Journal about speaking to a difficult person's "Future Self." What is one sentence that protects their dignity while maintaining your truth? Books: If you'd like to read more on this subject, some book suggestions are Dignity: Its Essential Role in Resolving Conflict by Donna Hicks, which explores the ten core elements of human dignity and focuses heavily on how preserving or violating face determines the ultimate success of high-stakes diplomacy, and Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High by Joseph Grenny, Kerry Patterson, and their coauthors, a widely recognized staple on creating the necessary psychological safety so people can speak honestly and directly without stripping away each other's dignity. Learning Topics: The Three Dignity Needs; Mandela's Grammar of Respect; Saving Face vs. Saving Power; The Language of Future Selves; The Non-Sarcasm Rule; Red lines spoken softly.

Die regering moedig Suid-Afrikaners aan om in Mandela-maand deel te neem aan aktiwiteite en hulp te verleen waar nodig. In hierdie maand kry mense die kans om die lewe en nalatenskap van wyle president Nelson Mandela te gedenk deur diens aan ander en sterker gemeenskappe te bou wat meer vir mekaar omgee.

The conversation explores one central question: What should ordinary people do when a government begins crossing moral lines? Matt Robison sits down with Gal Beckerman of The Atlantic to discuss his powerful new book How to Be a Dissident—drawing lessons from Václav Havel, Alexei Navalny, Hannah Arendt, Nelson Mandela, the Civil Rights Movement, Soviet dissidents, and more.This isn't a conversation about performative outrage or easy answers. It's about the difficult moral choices every democracy eventually asks of its citizens:• When should you resist?• What kinds of resistance actually matter?• Is protest enough?• Does political satire accomplish anything?• How do ordinary people find the courage to stand up to power?Whether you agree or disagree with every conclusion, this discussion explores one of the defining questions of our time.Subscribe for more conversations about democracy, politics, elections, and the future of America.Substack:https://worthknowing.substack.comYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@WorthKnowingwithMattRobisonChapters00:00 Introduction: When Government Turns Evil04:05 Why Gal Beckerman wrote How to Be a Dissident05:20 Do Americans need dissidents today?08:15 The nightmare that inspired the book10:00 When do you decide to resist?12:00 Hannah Arendt and moral courage15:00 Milgram, Stanford Prison & conformity18:00 Why dissent begins with standing alone20:20 The surprising traits real dissidents share22:00 Why being loud isn't enough24:00 Do protests actually accomplish anything?26:00 Political humor vs. authoritarianism29:00 Truth, lies, and fact-checking dictators35:00 Havel vs. Kundera: What really changes history?37:00 The power of bearing witness40:00 MLK, LBJ, and why successful movements need both insiders and outsiders42:00 The Children's Crusade and strategic moral risk46:00 Israel, Gaza, and personal moral responsibility47:45 The hardest question: "What are you prepared to do?"50:00 Living a meaningful life through moral choices52:00 Closing thoughtsKeywordsauthoritarianism, democracy, resisting authoritarianism, Gal Beckerman, The Atlantic, How to Be a Dissident, Donald Trump, democracy in America, political resistance, authoritarian government, civil rights movement, Václav Havel, Alexei Navalny, Hannah Arendt, Nelson Mandela, Soviet dissidents, political courage, moral courage, democratic backsliding, constitutional democracy, political philosophy, American politics, Matt Robison, Worth KnowingHashtags#Politics #Democracy #Authoritarianism #Trump #GalBeckerman #TheAtlantic #WorthKnowing #Resistance #DemocracyMatters #PoliticalDiscussion #CurrentEvents #MattRobison
Why do Democrats so often lose the message war and allow Republicans to dominate the political conversation—even when Democrats and progressives have popular policies?Legendary progressive strategist and activist David Fenton says Democrats are practicing what amounts to “unilateral disarmament” in today's information war. After more than 50 years helping movements win public support, he believes progressives must simplify their language, repeat compelling messages, reconnect with working people and build mass movements capable of defeating concentrated wealth and political corruption.In this wide-ranging Lean to the Left interview, Fenton explains why good policies do not sell themselves—and why Democrats must stop relying on academic language, insider terminology and messages that ordinary voters do not understand.Fenton discusses:• Why Republicans have become better at framing political issues• How simple language and repetition influence voters• Why Democrats must speak to affordability and working-class concerns• The danger of allowing specialized identity language to divide potential allies• Why the central struggle is not simply left versus right—but top versus bottom• How Democrats should connect climate change to higher costs and political corruption• Why effective metaphors such as “Make Polluters Pay” can move public opinion• How mass movements have changed America—and can do so again• What today's activists can learn from Abbie Hoffman, the antiwar movement and decades of progressive organizingFenton also shares hilarious stories from an extraordinary career that included the No Nukes concerts, the campaign to free Nelson Mandela, efforts to reform marijuana laws, environmental campaigns and work with activists, political leaders and cultural figures including his mentor, Abbie Hoffman, and Jane Fonda, Jesse Jackson, John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen.His message is blunt: Democrats and progressives cannot win merely by being correct. They must learn how to communicate, reach a mass audience and give people a reason to join something bigger than themselves.David Fenton is the author of The Activist's Media Handbook, available here https://amzn.to/4gDYmSH, and host of The Fenton Forecast podcast.Watch the full conversation, then tell us in the comments: What is the single biggest change Democrats should make in the way they communicate with voters?Subscribe to Lean to the Left for independent progressive commentary, political analysis and conversations with the people documenting—and shaping—America at a crossroads.CHAPTERS:00:00 Meet David Fenton02:00 Dropping Out Into Activism02:46 Underground Press Days04:13 Abbie Hoffman Lessons07:37 John Sinclair Freedom Concert08:49 Ann Arbor Human Rights Party10:53 High Times To Rolling Stone11:52 No Nukes And Starting Fenton13:05 Why Progressives Lose Media Wars14:24 Framing And Simple Messages17:20 Climate Language That Works19:40 Woke Sectarianism Debate20:40 Stop Divisive Messaging22:00 Socialism Label Problem22:30 Woke Pitfalls and Attacks23:16 Plainspoken Progressives25:58 Climate as Cost and Corruption27:32 Senate Map and Party Future29:04 AOC Versus Old Guard30:37 Fixing Disinformation Platforms33:58 Trump Costs and Vance Threat37:24 Podcast Book and Farewell

Some of the greatest writings in history were written from prison—like Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail, John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, and Nelson Mandela's Autobiography. The Apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians is no different, but most people have never heard of it. Written from a Roman prison to a church he started in Philippi, Philippians is a short letter full of brilliant theology, no-nonsense wisdom, and tattoo-worthy one-liners that has sparked joy, resilience, humility, and more in the church ever since.
Inter Milan are closing in on the signing of Israel international Anan Khalaily in a transfer that is causing huge controversy. Some fans and human rights activists believe that Inter are whitewashing both Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people and their apartheid state by buying an Israel international.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Minggu, 12 Juli 2026Bacaan: "Tetapi segera Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Tenang! Aku ini, jangan takut!" (Matius 14:27)Renungan: Pada tahun 1993, Nelson Mandela baru 3 tahun keluar dari penjara setelah 27 tahun dipenjara di Afrika Selatan. Negaranya sedang di ujung tanduk. Kulit putih takut kehilangan kuasa. Kulit hitam marah dan mau membalas dendam. Perang saudara hampir meledak setiap hari. Semua penasihatnya berkata, "Pakai kekuatan dan balas. Amankan posisi dulu." Tapi Mandela masuk ke ruangannya, berdoa, lalu mengambil keputusan yang membuat dunia kaget. Dia undang mantan sipir penjaranya makan siang di istana. Dia membentuk "Komisi Kebenaran dan Rekonsiliasi". Dia memilih mengampuni daripada membalas. Ketika ia ditanya mengapa berani ambil risiko sebesar itu, dia menjawab, "Saya sudah 27 tahun hidup dalam ketakutan dan kebencian. Saat saya keluar dari penjara, saya sadar kalau saya tidak melepaskan itu, maka saya masih di dalam penjara." Mandela memilih tenang di tengah badai, karena dia percaya ada panggilan yang lebih besar daripada rasa takutnya. Bacaan Injil di atas terjadi saat murid-murid ada di tengah danau Galilea. Angin kencang, ombak besar dan perahu hampir tenggelam. Mereka melihat "sesuatu" jalan di atas air dan berteriak ketakutan, mengira itu adalah hantu. Di titik paling panik itu, Yesus datang. Kalimat pertama-Nya bukan, "Aku akan meredakan badai", tetapi kalimat pertama-Nya adalah, "Tenanglah! Aku ini, jangan takut!" Yesus dalam hal ini mau mengingatkan bahwa sebelum Ia membereskan masalah kita, ketahuilah dulu siapa yang ada bersama kita. Badai boleh tetap ada. Tapi kalau "Aku ini" ada di perahu, maka kita tidak akan tenggelam. "Danau" kita saat ini mungkin berbeda, tetapi ombaknya sama kencang, yaitu pertama badai Ketidakpastian, contohnya dalam hal kerja, ekonomi, masa depan dll. Kita seperti para murid melihat gelombang, bukan melihat Yesus. Yesus berkata, 'Tenanglah! Aku pegang kendali hidupmu." Kedua badai hubungan. Ada luka, kecewa, pengkhianatan dll. Godaannya adalah kita mau membalas atau menghindar. Mandela mengajar kita memilih tenang dan memilih pengampunan, karena ada Yesus bersama kita. Ketiga badai batin. Ada kecemasan, kegagalan dan merasa tidak cukup. Kita berteriak dalam hati. Yesus datang dan berkata hal yang sama, "Tenanglah! Aku ini. Kamu tidak sendirian. Kita sering meminta Tuhan membereskan badainya dulu baru kita tenang. Tapi Tuhan minta kita percaya dulu bahwa Dia ada, barulah kita bisa tenang di tengah badai. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ampunilah aku yang sering lebih fokus pada badai daripada kehadiran-Mu. Hari ini aku mau mendengar suara-Mu: "Tenanglah! Aku ini, jangan takut!" Mampukan aku seperti Mandela, untuk tidak dikuasai takut dan benci. Peganglah tanganku di tengah gelombang hidupku. Amin. (Dod).

Ep 285 Peacewarts: Resonant Charms 101 - The Architecture of a Sentence (Class 4) In class 4, we analyze the "Pronoun Blueprint" and the internal structure of speech to understand how sentences can either bridge divides or ignite factions. We compare the distributive responsibility found in Lincoln's Second Inaugural and Nelson Mandela's 1994 inaugural address. We also introduce the Metaphor Temperature Test as a tool for identifying and cooling high-conflict rhetoric. Homework: Look up the final paragraph of Lincoln's Second Inaugural (1865) and a short passage from Mandela's Inaugural (1994). Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write 'no question.' Optional: Review your last three emails or texts during a disagreement. Apply the Metaphor Temperature Test and rewrite one sentence to change its temperature. If you'd like to read more on this subject, some book suggestions are Lincoln at Gettysburg: The Words that Remade America by Garry Wills, a brilliant masterclass on sentence architecture and structural balance that demonstrates how deliberate rhetoric can reshape a fractured national identity, and Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela, which provides the essential global perspective on using balanced, inclusive language to distribute social responsibility and systematically mend a divided nation. Learning Topics: The Pronoun Blueprint (we/our vs. you/they); Distributed responsibility in leadership; Lincoln and Mandela as case studies; The Metaphor Temperature Test; Parallel structure as a de-escalation tool.

Women for justice où le combat des femmes pour la justice et l'égalité en Afrique du Sud, au Ghana, ou encore au Nigeria. Une émission enregistrée en public au Campus Condorcet de Paris-Aubervilliers où nous avons installé notre studio RFI au cœur des 9è édition des Rencontres des Études africaines en France. Un nouvel épisode de La marche du monde consacré à ces femmes militantes comme le chante Fela Kuti dans « Unknown soldier » lorsqu'il raconte l'histoire de sa mère Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, une femme politique nigériane et une militante des droits des femmes engagée pour l'indépendance de son pays, le droit de vote ou encore l'émancipation économique des femmes. Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti est décédée en 1978 suite aux blessures mortelles infligées par les militaires nigérians lors de l'attaque de Kalakuta République, le laboratoire musical, utopique et politique de son fils Fela Kuti. Nous évoquons également les destins remarquables de Charlotte Maxeke, fondatrice de la ligue féminine de l'ANC, le parti de Nelson Mandela, redécouverte et célébrée annuellement, notamment au Parlement sud-africain. Surnommée, « The first » elle est la première femme africaine à obtenir un diplôme universitaire, un bachelor en sciences, qu'elle obtient lors d'un séjour aux États-Unis. Ce diplôme, ainsi que son expérience américaine, à la fois comme étudiante à Wilberforce et comme membre de l'Église méthodiste, lui apportent une expérience précieuse dans le domaine de l'éducation. Charlotte Maxeke ne prône pas la violence, elle s'appuie clairement sur sa foi pour mettre en lumière des injustices qui doivent être corrigées. Enfin nous découvrons le parcours exceptionnel d'Annie Jiagge, dont le père était Pasteur dans le petit village de Keta à la frontière du Togo, à l'époque de la colonisation allemande. Une femme élevée dans les valeurs du protestantisme, institutrice engagée pour l'éducation des filles, devenue la première femme Juge en son pays… première femme juge à être nommée par le futur président Kwame N'Krumah à la Cour suprême. Pour Annie Jiagge, comme pour toutes ces femmes leaders, la question de l'éducation des filles est une revendication centrale. À partir de ces figures pionnières, nous évoquons les mouvements collectifs de ces militantes anglophones et francophones, chrétiennes et musulmanes, depuis le début du XXème siècle. Des femmes qui sont sorties de leur pays, ont voyagé, ont participé à des conférences internationales à l'Ouest comme à l'Est, en pleine guerre froide. Quelles traces ont-elles laissées et comment écrire leur histoire ? Regardez la vidéo du discours d'Annie Jiagge à la tribune de l'ONU, le 15 juillet 1980. Avec nos invitées : - Pascale Barthélémy, directrice d'études à l'EHESS, l'École des hautes études en sciences sociales, et vice-présidente chargée des Relations Internationales - Claire Nicolas, historienne de l'Afrique et de l'histoire globale à l'Université de Bâle en Suisse - Phoebe Musando de l'Université de Georgetown à Doha au Qatar - Sara Panata, chargée de recherche au CNRS, historienne de l'Afrique au laboratoire Les Afriques dans le monde à Bordeaux.

En Afrique du Sud, les étrangers fuient massivement le pays alors que des groupes xénophobes ont exigé le départ de tous les migrants illégaux avant la date butoir de ce mardi, le 30 juin. « La terreur et les larmes » des Malawites contraints d'abandonner leur vie en Afrique du Sud, fait la Une du Daily Maverick. Le quotidien sud-africain s'est rendu sur le site de l'ancien cinéma en plein-air de Durban, la plus grande ville de la province du KwaZulu-Natal dans l'est du pays. C'est là sur un site d'un kilomètre carré, qu'Azadi attend, « son bébé endormi sur sa poitrine ». C'est avec « tristesse » que ce père de famille retourne au Malawi mais il ne voit pas d'autre option car « la situation n'est pas bonne » en Afrique du Sud pour tous ceux qui ne sont pas Sud-Africains. « Ce n'est pas la première fois que le pays est en proie à une poussée de fièvre xénophobe, écrit la correspondante du Monde Afrique. Mais jamais des étrangers terrorisés n'avaient ainsi fait leurs bagages en masse (…). Pratiquement inconnu il y a trois mois, le mouvement March and March, à l'origine de la mobilisation, appelle à des manifestations pacifiques. Mais dans son sillage, depuis des semaines, une campagne ultraviolente déferle sur les réseaux sociaux », poursuit le journal qui rappelle que le mouvement a déjà fait « au moins quatre morts, peut-être plus ». En danger À Mankweng, dans le nord du pays, « plus de 600 zimbabwéens » campent devant le poste de police, rapporte le Daily Sun. Nombre d'entre eux sont sans-papiers, pas tous, Juliat, elle, a « des documents légaux pour rester en Afrique du Sud » mais elle a été forcée de quitter le logement qu'elle louait. Cette mère de deux enfants vit désormais dans la peur, raconte le quotidien sud-africain. Dans la nation arc-en-ciel, « requiem pour l'Ubuntu et le legs de Madiba », titre Aujourd'hui au Faso. L'Ubuntu, c'est cette « philosophie de la compassion chère à Nelson Mandela », précise le journal. Si « le chômage, la corruption endémique et la dégradation des sévices publics (…) font le lit de cette chasse au faciès », le pays devrait pourtant « avoir les ressorts pour conjurer ce genre de comportement. L'apartheid, c'était seulement avant hier ». Réforme constitutionnelle au Sénégal Au Sénégal, « l'Assemblée nationale a adopté, en séance plénière, la proposition de loi portant sur la révision de la Constitution, écrit Dakaractu. Les députés du groupe parlementaire Pastef, qui disposent d'une majorité dans l'hémicycle, ont voté le texte ». Un texte qui renforce le pouvoir du Parlement et du Premier ministre au détriment du président. « Le vote s'est tenu dans un climat de fortes tensions entre le Pastef et la coalition Diomaye Président, qui soutient le chef de l'État et réclamait le retrait du projet au profit d'une concertation plus large », poursuit Dakaractu. « Bassirou Diomaye Faye a décidé de soumettre au référendum la proposition de révision constitutionnelle adoptée », indique Le Soleil. Ousmane Sonko, le président de l'Assemblée, lui, demande au chef de l'État « de promulguer la loi sans passer par un référendum », précise Senego. « Le bras de fer s'intensifie entre les deux hommes », poursuit le média. Selon Afrik.com, ce référendum sera « un test personnel pour Bassirou Diomaye Faye (…), une victoire du oui conforterait le projet de refondation institutionnelle porté par Ousmane Sonko et confirmerait sa popularité auprès des Sénégalais ». Performance marocaine Au Mondial de football, la « qualification héroïque du Maroc face au Pays-Bas, titre Médias24.

Some of the greatest writings in history were written from prison—like Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail, John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, and Nelson Mandela's Autobiography. The Apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians is no different, but most people have never heard of it. Written from a Roman prison to a church he started in Philippi, Philippians is a short letter full of brilliant theology, no-nonsense wisdom, and tattoo-worthy one-liners that has sparked joy, resilience, humility, and more in the church ever since.
The Knicks just won the NBA Finals — and José Alvarado led the Puerto Rican Day Parade the next morning. But while New York was celebrating, something else was quietly happening in the Caribbean: a US carrier strike group just parked itself 90 miles from Havana. Henry and Danny — with help from AI guest Tio Raul — break down the full arc of America's 125-year obsession with Cuba. From the first concentration camps in history, to the mob-run casino island Batista built for American business, to Fidel's guerrilla campaign on a 10-person yacht with 81 men aboard, to the Cuban tank crews that went and fought Israel on a mountain in Syria — this island punches so far above its weight it's almost unbelievable. They also get into why Cuba deployed nearly half a million troops to Angola over 16 years, how that campaign helped end apartheid in South Africa (and what Nelson Mandela himself said about it), and how Aroldis Chapman — the hardest thrower in baseball history — had to buy his freedom from a cartel for $30 million just to pitch in the majors. And then there's Marco Rubio, whose family left Cuba under Batista — not Castro — now sitting as Secretary of State with a carrier fleet and a personal vendetta shaping US foreign policy in real time. Someone just dropped $57,000 on a prediction market betting it all goes hot before the end of 2026. Tio Raul is powered by Maneku — the AI built for real conversations.

The latest public version of ChatGPT can be made to generate sexualised images or depict scenes of graphic violence with a simple prompt, researchers have told the BBC. British AI security startup Mindgard figured out how to make ChatGPT create graphic pictures by slightly altering a widely-shared instruction, or prompt, which was originally designed to produce humorous results. To find out more, Anita Rani speaks to Technology correspondent Chris Vallance and Mindgard's Peter Garraghan. A spokesperson for Open AI said: "We take these reports seriously. After investigating this trend, we've introduced additional safeguards against this type of prompt. Our safety systems are designed to block potentially harmful images that are uploaded to ChatGPT and we analyse whether the AI generated image violates our policies before we show the image to the user. We also combine automated systems and human review to identify and block harmful material.”Jon Snow, the lead presenter of Channel 4 News for 32 years, has revealed he has Alzheimer's disease. During his career, he reported on stories including the fall of the Berlin Wall, the release of Nelson Mandela and Barack Obama's inauguration, receiving numerous awards including the BAFTA Fellowship in 2015.

Today's conversation between Impact Theory host Tom Bilyeu and Tommy Robinson focuses on the rapid demographic and cultural shifts currently reshaping cities across the West, with particular emphasis on immigration, identity, and social cohesion. One concept discussed was how these changes are sparking some of the most contentious and consequential debates of the coming decade. A key theme that emerged was the tension between traditional national identity and values, and the effects of multicultural communities—particularly how integration, or the lack thereof, shapes perceptions of safety, belonging, and the preservation of cultural norms.The discussion explored personal experiences of growing up in a changing community, the challenges of assimilation, and the feeling of being unable to openly discuss sensitive issues due to fears of being labeled or facing legal and social repercussions. Several points were raised, including concerns over political correctness, the role of government and corporations in mass immigration policies, and the resulting impact on community values and public discourse.Listeners can expect a deep dive into not only the lived realities behind these societal changes, but also the broader forces—political, economic, and cultural—that drive and shape them. The episode presents a controversial and candid examination of what is at stake for the future, and invites audiences to reflect on the values that define collective identity and community in an increasingly complex world.Chapters:00:00 UK immigration and political context16:52 Discussing causes of public outrage21:35 Discussing the George Floyd case39:40 The influence of ideological beliefs52:00 Discussing racial justice and perspectives54:06 Nelson Mandela's Vision for Unity01:10:30 Discussing labor and economic factors01:19:06 AI's role in modern society01:30:53 Modern struggles and wealth disparity01:44:37 Questioning female representation in gaming01:46:50 Discussion on attractive character design02:04:16 Issues with police response to stabbing02:07:34 Obsessing over achieving goalsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The conversation delves deep into the roots of these societal clashes, including how narratives around victimhood, race, and ideology are amplifying divisions both in the UK and beyond.But the episode doesn't stop there—world events from Russia's attack on Ukraine, to debates over the government's role in AI, to controversies igniting the gaming world, all collide in this multi-faceted discussion. Buckle up for a powerful and nuanced conversation that doesn't shy away from the hard questions.00:00 UK immigration and political context16:52 Discussing causes of public outrage21:35 Discussing the George Floyd case39:40 The influence of ideological beliefs52:00 Discussing racial justice and perspectives54:06 Nelson Mandela's Vision for Unity01:10:30 Discussing labor and economic factors01:19:06 AI's role in modern society01:30:53 Modern struggles and wealth disparity01:44:37 Questioning female representation in gaming01:46:50 Discussion on attractive character design02:04:16 Issues with police response to stabbing02:07:34 Obsessing over achieving goalsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
