Podcasts about Project Blitz

In this era of political polarization, the landscape in the United States is marked by the rise of Donald Trump as the frontrunner for the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election. This despite Trump facing numerous legal challenges–including over his involvement in the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol. However, Trump and his supporters are but the most visible element. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is increasingly taking over the religious right movement and, in turn, influencing the Republican Party, which holds implications for Christianity and the future of democracy. The NAR is closely aligned with those who are on a mission to take over democracy worldwide under the guise of “religious freedom.” Not only are they backing Trump, but Trump is backing them. This movement of politicized Neo-Charismatic Pentecostals (NCP) seeks to assert dominance through their Seven Mountain Mandate, which we've previously discussed. There is a possibility that Trump could once again serve as a conduit for their agenda at the nation's highest office, amplifying the impact of this cult movement towards religious theocracy through the legislative and judicial branches of government at all levels. The theocratic end goals are clearly laid out through Project Blitz, a state-level legislative program primarily led by NAR operatives. André Gagné and Frederick Clarkson returned to my show to discuss the NAR, its background, and ways to educate people worldwide about it. This is a very special interview of major importance.

Evangelical activists open a new front in their campaign to impose their version of biblical morality in public schools — at the Texas statehouse. While legislators debate bills requiring the Ten Commandments and banning mention of gender identity in classrooms, three nonbinary students share the trauma they've endured at Grapevine High. Meanwhile, a coalition of progressive parents and disillusioned conservatives pledge to retake control of their school system.

Attention Mentions:Mendi: The Great British Bake Off; The Crown on Netflix; and Ken Burns' ‘The U.S. and the Holocaust documentary on PBS Claire: White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American ChristianityBook by Robert P. Jones Nichole: Dancing with the Stars on Disney+ Join us in conversation with Mendi Tackett as she walks us through her journey to unravel the mystery of what she saw happening in her school district of Granbury ISD. She wanted to understand what was happening under the surface and found herself on a learning journey to demystify Christian Nationalism. Mendi has read extensively and researched to make the connections between the Texas political climate and the practitioners of Christian Nationalism. Suppose you're looking for a reading list. In that case, she recommends these two books to develop a core understanding: The Founding Myth by Andrew Seidel and Taking Back America for God by Andrew Whitehead and Samuel Perry. Other resources and points of interest that Mendi mentioned include:• Dr. David Brockman studies Christian Nationalism in Texas.• Project Blitz is a coalition of Christian organizations that advocate for Christian Nationalism.• David Barton and the Wallbuilders are prominent in the Christian Nationalism movement in Texas.• Farris Wilks and his brother Dan are large financial contributors to the Wallbuilders and other conservative Christian Nationalist organizations.• Empower Texans is a powerful conservative Political Action Committee. The important language that denotes Christian Nationalism includes:• Indoctrination versus education• No separation between church and state• School Choice• Parents' rights Twitter handle: @mentack

The Non-Prophets, Episode 21.42 airing Sunday, October 16, 2022 featuring Richard Gilliver, August and Cindy PlazaThis week we got Richard Gilliver doing his best ASMR while August and Cindy back him up with nothing but the facts. I wasted too much time with a Picard speech so let's just get right into it!First up, A Nobel prize winner is in some hot water. Why might you ask? Well I will give you three guesses with just one hint. He Catholic bishop from Portugal. Well where he is from isn't really the important part so you blew a guess on that. No, it's not because he tried to move in a straight line when he is only supposed to move diagonally. Ok, you guessed it, it is due to sexual abuse. We also get some real time fact checking in this segment so be sure to pay attention to this one!Next up, The women or Iran are starting to protest their oppressive wear! This has reverberations of other feminist protests in both the US in the 60's and in Iran when the Shiite regime took over in the late 70's and 80's. Veil burnings echoing the bra burnings an ocean away. Hopefully it doesn't take a generation or two to get the freedoms they deserve and that their male counterparts wield over them like a deadly weapon.We then turn back to the states and a massively hypocritical situation. It seems like a family values candidate doesn't quite practice what he preaches. Then again we are talking about Herschel Walker. Do we always know what he is trying to preach? He is just one of the many that got caught, but this time the hypocrisy is about an abortion(s?) of a girlfriend. He is just one name in a long string of conservative leaders. That's not to say conservatives bad and liberals good by default. It is telling though how some people want to make rules, but then not follow them in their daily life. Look, all we ask is for consistent character growth!Lastly, We have a step in the right direction with a little bit of a ghost story. One that chills Christian Nationalism to the bone. A story that can only be told so very close to Halloween. There is a creature growing. A Secular Government Caucus that will stop at nothing to hunt down Christian Nationalism and stop them from ruining people's lives. They want to put a stop to “Project Blitz”. They want to keep gods out of public schools. Christian Nationalism GET OUT! The call is coming from within the Minnesota State Legislature!Segment 1: Portugal abuse cases mount amid questions over Nobel bishop AP via MSN | October 3, 2022 | By Barry Hattonhttps://bit.ly/3CZcYI0Segment 2: Iran's anti-veil protests draw on long history of resistanceAP | September 28, 2022 | By Amir-Hussein Radjyhttps://bit.ly/3MyToWcSegment 3: Bill Press: The gospel of Christian hypocrisyTribune Content Agency via MSN | October 6, 2022 | By Bill Press https://bit.ly/3EHaO15Segment 4: SITRD: MN lawmakers' ‘Secular Government Caucus' will combat Christian Nationalism Only Sky | October 5, 2022 | Hemant Mehtahttps://bit.ly/3EJHgjfDon't like ads?

Alison, Rebecca and Monica discuss another tool in our kit to keep religion and government separate: legislative advocacy. Alison, as our resident policy expert, guides us through the many bills that threaten church/state separation wending their ways through state legislatures this year. Background Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA) BlitzWatch Relevant Cases Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) Tandon v. Newsom (2021) Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith (1990) City of Boerne v. Flores (1997)   Check us out on Facebook and Twitter.

Looking for something entertaining, educational, and two hours long? You've come to the right place! Well, almost. We're right up there… what, maybe two inches away, max? But, if you can't find us here, check us out over at Libsyn or at YouTube, where you'll always find us, never too far from “kangaroo fights”. David Waldman counts down the days to Eastern Orthodox Easter, somehow the source of 80% of our humor here. Greg Dworkin calls a meeting in the KITM War Room to discuss the upcoming Battle of the Donbas. It's not a secret meeting, in fact everyone everywhere can plainly see everything going down. A retired Russian colonel demonstrated that he was way smarter than any dead general by predicting where Russian troops would find themselves today, three weeks before the war began. Ukraine decided to not wait for Russians to get their act together and began pinching off their pincer movement early. Russian checks bouncing is a real problem as their war machine runs on foreign components. In fact, Russia will eventually lose when it gives up. The sinking of Russia's flagship is bad news for everyone's navy, however. Alex Jones' InfoWars files for bankruptcy, probably forcing Alex into hosting a show on CNN. Newsrooms aren't stupid and evil, they've only sold themselves to stupid and evil people. Not every stupid and evil person is rich though. Marjorie Traitor Greene makes a lot, spends even more. Madison Cawthorn might need to throw a bake sale at his next cocaine orgy. Mike Lee spent 14 hours a day trying to help Donald Trump overthrow the government, and what thanks does he get? John Eastman has spent decades plotting coups and what has he ever gotten out of it? Not enough, that's for sure. For more than a generation, Project Blitz has strived to be the Christian nationalist-dominionist ALEC for local government, and unfortunately, they've been pretty good at it. Emmanuel Macron leads Marine Le Pen before the vote, but what counts is who leads after the vote.

Frederick Clarkson is one of the foremost experts on Christian Dominionism in the United States (“Dominionism” is the theocratic idea that Christians are called by God to exercise dominion over every aspect of society by taking control of political and cultural institutions). Fred is a journalist and the author of the classic "Eternal Hostility: The Struggle Between Theocracy and Democracy." He broke the story of Project Blitz, a coalition of conservative Christian groups working to enact Dominionist legislation in state & local legislatures across the U.S., and helped set up BlitzWatch.org to monitor, track, and defeat attempts by Christian Nationalists to implement their distorted view of religious freedom. In this interview, we talk about the contemporary politics of Dominionism. We talk about how we got here and why Dominionists are exerting so much power and influence in public life.

Send us a textIt's the second Wednesday of the month, so it's time for a PBL Blitz episode. This week we are going to be hearing from learners instead of the facilitators. I toured Babcock Neighborhood School in Babcock Ranch, FL. It's one of the Magnify Learning demonstration sites. Babcock Ranch teachers have been through a lot of PBL workshops. The majority of their staff is PBL certified. I toured the school and got to see the learners in action and ask them questions about PBL learning. You'll get to hear the answers straight from the learners in this fun episode. You'll love hearing these responses and how they are connected to experiences, not just bits of knowledge. Episode Highlights: [03:44] During the day, I saw a room with three classes of 1st graders. They were all collaborating on math.[04:58] I asked learners about PBL. You are going to love the answers that I received.[05:44] What is project-based learning and why do you enjoy it? The answers are so cute. The first learner's favorite part was learning.[06:23] It was the second learner's preferred way of learning. The third learner loved how she gets to interact with things.[07:07] The learner's also enjoyed working with community partners in a hands-on way. This learning style is preferred over repeated testing. [08:07] Students also shared their favorite PBL experience from visiting senior citizens and sharing the experience to community partners and building custom robots and driving them in swimming pools.[09:31] The first graders share their math motivation collaborating with community partners. [10:56] Learner's share PBL advice for new teachers.

In this episode we discuss the fundamentalist Christian, right wing political movement called Project Blitz. Jesse joins me as we explore their propaganda and attempt to determine what an appropriate response to their message should be coming from an evidence-based and reasonable perspective.

Send us a textLacee Wald is a fifth-grade facilitator from Neosho, Missouri. She's been through the rigorous PBL certification process and is now equipped to train and teach other teachers about project-based learning. In this PBL Blitz, Lacee will be sharing her favorite PBL unit called Friday's Endgame. In this PBL, fifth-graders at Lacee's school had half days on Fridays. Learners had concern and consternation when administrators decided to switch to full days. This project consisted of presenting a debate to administrators and board members about the pros and cons of the switch. This was near and dear to the learner's hearts, so no entry event was necessary. Lacee breaks down the entire project, including processes and how multiple standards were met. She also shares a special story about the impact of this project on one shy student, along with what she would have done differently. Episode Highlights: [02:27] Friday's Endgame is titled after the movie Endgame. This PBL had a considerable buy-in as it helped learners transition from half-day Fridays to full-day Fridays. [05:04] They had a debate where the learners presented both sides of the argument. This debate began with getting input using Google forms for students, parents, and staff.[06:57] The survey and debate probably wouldn't change any minds, but at least the students felt like their voice was being heard.[07:13] All three superintendents were part of the project. One superintendent even sent the kids a video showing why the decision was made.[07:50] Lacee shares skills and standards covered, including analyzing and explaining an author's viewpoint, comparing and contrasting views of people affected, listening, researching, writing their own opinion, debating both sides of an argument, and interpreting graphs. [12:56] The students put together a professional debate, and they presented both sides of the argument using all of the data they had gathered. [13:51] Lacee shares an example of how this PBL helped a shy student find his voice and write an excellent speech. This confidence booster led to this student being on the debate team in junior high.Resources & Links Related to this EpisodeWhat is PBL?Magnify Learning YouTubeProject Based Learning Stories and Structures: Wins, Fails, and Where to StartMagnify LearningRyan Steuer Twitter @ryansteuerLacee Wald

Welcome to the PBL Playbook, brought to you by Magnify Learning – where we put teachers back in their sweet spot. Make sure you follow us on Twitter: @magnifylearning, @askgiebs, @MissB103, #PBLPlaybook.In this special episode of the PBL Blitz series, Andrea interviews a familiar voice: Josh is the special guest on this Blitz episode to discuss PBL vs. PrBL (Problem Based Learning) and the authentic application of learning on a smaller scale. Especially in the math classroom, PrBL gives teachers and students an opportunity to engage with standards in an authentic application that is not quite the extent of a full PBL. The need for this could be because of the way standards flow or fit together, or maybe it is a first step for a newer facilitator of classroom PBL to start to integrate the strategies of PBL into the classroom. No matter the purpose, PrBL is a great way to incorporate the “Spirit of PBL” into the classroom on a small scale for engaging and authentic learning opportunities.

Make sure you follow us on Twitter: @magnifylearning, @askgiebs, @MissB103, #PBLPlaybook.Josh and Andrea continue the PBL Project Blitz series where once a month, they highlight a PBL project by veterans in the PBL classroom. In this episode of the PBL Project Blitz, Megan Reedy from JCPS in Louisville, KY. Megan's class at Dunn Elementary completed a Watershed PBL Unit  in which her first graders became conservationists in order to raise awareness about the human impact on watershed areas.

Throughout the episode, Emma highlights meeting the students where they are, and offers some great advice regarding scaffolding and making a PBL fit for your students.

Lining up with the annual Indy 500 race in Indianapolis, Rhonda's classes partnered with the Indianapolis Children's Museum to create a Hot Wheels: Race to Win exhibit to teach younger students about force and other ideas relevant to race cars. Integrating science standards such as forces in motion and math standards such as scale, Rhonda's classes created their own Hot Wheels displays for the exhibit, which they got to present to younger students in Indianapolis during race week. As a popular toy, this project was a fun way for kids to learn and understand the application of these standards, and it is one Rhonda says has stuck with these students even years after completion.Stay tuned for more awesome projects as the PBL Project Blitz series continues every month!Music from https://attaboyonline.com/home#music"Waking Up" by Attaboy (https://attaboyonline.com/home#music)*For more PBL Resources and PBL professional development opportunities check out the Magnify Learning Website: https://www.magnifylearningin.org/

Britni shares a project that the Southport Elementary third graders completed called “Spin for M4M.” Inspired by a Myeloma diagnosis in a family member of one of their teachers, third graders aimed to revamp a biking event called Miles 4 Myeloma in order to raise both awareness of the disease and money for cancer research. In what was meant to be a small community project, Southport third graders and their teachers were moved at the reach of this project and the impact on the community. Britni also touches on the collaboration between the Southport third grade teachers, and the contributions from all stakeholders to make this such a powerful event for her community and students.Stay tuned for more awesome projects as the PBL Project Blitz series continues every month!Music from https://attaboyonline.com/home#music"Waking Up" by Attaboy (https://attaboyonline.com/home#music)*For more PBL Resources and PBL professional development opportunities check out the Magnify Learning Website: https://www.magnifylearningin.org/
