Podcast appearances and mentions of rachel ferguson

Send us a textWe talk a lot about civil society and the importance of local, communal networks which hold us up when we're down and inspire us to be good, striving members of society. But what does that actually look like? How do civil institutions get build, and what does it take?  Today, I'm excited to welcome Rachel Ferguson to the podcast. She is the director of the Free Enterprise Center at Concordia University in Chicago and an affiliate scholar at the Acton Institute. She is the president of the board at Love the Lou, a neighborhood stabilization project which we are talking about today.  Join us for an honest and inspiring conversation about why civil society matters, how it is built, what threatens it, and what the implications of civil society (or the lack thereof) are on the ground. How do institutions we speak of conceptually actually change people's lives, in real and concrete ways?

Send us a textNot often do we find people who make the case for how race, liberty, and equality belong together. Even less often do we find them making arguments in the height of racially and economically troubled times. And EVEN LESS do we find audio clips of them doing so. These people are inspiring. They stand up against the currents of the time to speak their minds, for the benefit of everyone. In doing so, they garner respect and build coalitions across ideological lines, because they have to. We can learn from them and aspire to be like them today.In a really unique episode, I am excited to welcome David Beito to the podcast to talk about Rose Wilder Lane's column, "Rose Lane Says," and how she brought together these three concepts of race, liberty, and equality to make an appealing case for freedom. He shares with us a clip of Lane herself, speaking on these issues. Want to explore more?Timothy Sandefur on Freedom's Furies, a Great Antidote podcast.Nico Perrino on Individual Rights and Free Expression, a Great Antidote podcast.Rachel Ferguson on Black Liberation Through the Marketplace, a Great Antidote podcast. Alice Temnick, Prudence on the Prairie, at Speaking of SmithMustafa Akyol, Liberty Was Islam's First Call, at the Online Library of LibertyNever miss another AdamSmithWorks update.Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

A common theme of this show that we often speak on is the problems that occur when we deify our politics, and politicize our religion and sacred spaces. Dr. Rachel Ferguson joins the show to talk with Boyd about this vitally important topic. It's not just crucial for believers, but the health of the entire nation as well. America is a religious country, and the more we can separate our religious belief and practice from day to day culture war issues, the healthier we will be as a nation.

Delve beneath the Wednesday headlines with Boyd Matheson! Rachel Ferguson joins the show to talk about culture “reactionaryism” and what happens when we politicize religion. Dig into the consequences of our culture’s bashing of boys and men with Andrew Reiner. Jonah Goldberg answers the question of what is in an identity?

How does neighborhood stabilization work? How is investing in single city blocks more effective than a panoply of government-initiated anti-poverty programs? How important is trust between citizens and law enforcement to these ends? Then the guys discuss the terrorist attacks by Hamas in Israel over the weekend. What will come next? What does this mean for efforts at peace accords between Israel and countries like Saudi Arabia? What should we make of the people pouring into the streets of American cities in support of the Palestinian cause, if not the actions of Hamas?

This week, Eric Kohn, Dan Hugger, and Dylan Pahman discuss the move by Ukraine's government to prevent churches affiliated with Moscow from operating in Ukraine. How dangerous is this? And why is trying to determine what constitutes a legitimate religion always problematic? Then the guys turn their attention to the protests in China and the delay of Jimmy Lai's National Security Law trial in Hong Kong. How big of a threat to the Chinese Communist Party are these protests? And why should we focus more on marginal improvements in places like China and Hong Kong than on big revolutionary changes?

Matt Kibbe is joined by Rachel Ferguson and Marcus Witcher, authors of “Black Liberation Through the Marketplace,” to discuss the ways in which free markets and free people have done more for racial justice and equality than any top-down government program. While acknowledging that minorities still face real problems with structural racism in the United States, Ferguson and Witcher point out that in most cases these structures are imposed by the government rather than eliminated by them, and the largest reductions in racist policies have come during periods of deregulation. While the social justice crowds tend to demand more and more intervention by the state, they ignore the fact that slavery, segregation, eugenics, and all of the other racially motivated programs were products of a large central government, not of ordinary people.

Musician, producer, sound engineer, and all-around creative force Erik Blood is known for a lot of things - one-half of Knife Knights alongside Ishmael Butler, his recent funkified sensual project Pink Lotion with Rachel Ferguson, Black Constellation all-star contributor, and a solo artist in his own right. Something you may have missed was his 2011 foray into music soundtracking which saw the multi-hyphenate write an album's worth of original music for the Brazilian film Center of Gravity. Without having even seen the movie, the haunting soundtrack Blood created tells a powerful story on its own, full of tender longing and heartwrenching aching. The description of the film describes it as dealing with, “universal questions about love and our expectations toward the beloved, the thin line that simultaneously divides and unites one another.” Our Song of the Day, “Or Am I Wrong?” expresses that extremely thin line as our narrator questions their ex's ability to move on while they're still so hopelessly entrenched in the memory of their shared past. Backed by a spaghetti-western-esque beat that pairs perfectly with our narrator's cinema-sized reimagining of past love, the song was made for the widescreen. With lyrics like “That place we were /Can we ever go back /This fear of me being phased out /Or instantly replaced is just so strong,” it's easy to imagine a montage of loving moments past or rain pouring down a protagonists head as they stare at their ex-love's window. For the full lowdown on Erik Blood, listen KEXP's episode on him for our Fresh Off the Spaceship podcast which delves into the boundless world of the Black Constellation.

The experiences of black Americans do not fit neatly into our nation's political culture. As the authors argue, those on the right fail to acknowledge the gravity of past injustices and rights violations, while those on the left ignore decades of failed paternalism and unintended consequences of government policy. But there is an alternative: classical liberalism, a philosophy based on free markets, individual rights, and vibrant civil society.Exhausted by extremism on both sides, in their new book, Black Liberation through the Marketplace: Hope, Heartbreak, and the Promise of America, economic philosopher Rachel Ferguson and historian Marcus Witcher argue that classical liberalism provides the building blocks for a free and prosperous society for all.

Join CEO Jennifer Grossman and Professor Rachel Ferguson on the 107th episode of The Atlas Society Asks where they'll discuss Ferguson's co-authored book "Black Liberation Through the Marketplace: Hope, Heartbreak, and the Promise of America" which applies a classical liberal lens to how both the violation of property rights and failed paternalism have contributed to deep injustices against Black Americans, while also celebrating Black entrepreneurs who’ve overcome tremendous obstacles to create flourishing businesses and communities.

Black Liberation through the Marketplace details some of the work necessary to begin to make good on the promises of property rights, freedom of contract, and the protection of the rule of law for all Americans, most especially those Americans to whom those promises have not been delivered.

If we face America's racial history squarely, must we conclude that the American project is a failure? Conversely, if we think the American project is a worthy endeavor, do we have to lie or equivocate about its past? In this episode, Dan Churchwell, Acton's director of program outreach, sits with Rachel Ferguson, economic philosopher at Concordia University Chicago, to discuss her new book, Black Liberation Through the Marketplace. Exhausted by extremism on both left and right, a majority of Americans—black and white—still love this country and want to do right by all its citizens. In Black Liberation Through the Marketplace, Rachel Ferguson leaves readers with a better understanding of black history and creative ideas for how to make this nation one that truly enjoys liberty and justice for all.

Community is Everything. Meet Rachel, a mother of many talents. Along with her husband, they've built and grew a share house project called RYOZAN PARK which empowers families in Tokyo to build a community with workspaces, accommodation and childcare. It is one of Tokyo's first ever integrated urban communities of this decade. However, this concept is nothing new to the Japanese society; just easily forgotten. Rachel also came on my podcast to announce her new children's book/sleep aid, “Gugu and Penfin Sleep”. A perfect (and super cute!) book for parents in need to get themselves and their kids some well deserved rest. You can check out Rachel here: rachelferguson.net If you are interested and want to find out more about Ryozan Park, visit: ryozanpark.com To get a copy of “Gugu and Penfin Sleep”, visit: guguandpenfin.com For more info on the Nakameguro Taproom and other Baird Beer taprooms, please visit: http://Bairdbeer.com/ To donate and buy drinks for the guests of my podcast: ko-fi.com/madeinjapanpodcast IG & FB: @madeinjapanpodcast Email: japanmademepodcast@gmail.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/madeinjapanpodcast/message

Andy and TJ are joined once again by the inimitable Rachel Ferguson. Rachel threw down the gauntlet, suggesting that they read David Bentley Hart's book "Atheist Delusions", then have her on to discuss it. Challenge accepted!In addition to the book, they discuss secular morality, the possibility of separating Christian ethics from Christian metaphysics, Aquinas' "Five Proofs" and the "uncaused Cause", and more.

This week I talked with Rachel Ferguson about her amazing business Ryozan Park. She has the mission to empower working families in Japan with a school, a co-working space and share apartments that are truly focused on community and care. Rachel has a very interesting background in Japan, from starting out at Nova, to working in television, and now to being an entrepreneur. I hope you enjoy the podcast!

This week's podcast the Gwartney team welcomes Dr. Rachel Ferguson back to the show. The podcast this week a more on the faith side talking about how old testament laws can shape Christians today. The idea for the podcast was from Dr. Rachel Ferguson and Dr. Russ McCullough after they both listened to a podcast from the Biblical Mind group. Their podcast has "Dr. Carmen Imes, Associate Professor of Old Testament at Prairie College in Alberta, Canada, talks with Dr. Dru Johnson about the role of the Old Testament laws. Fulfilling individual Old Testament laws is meant to shape the wisdom and character of God's people in response to God's already accomplished work of salvation. Dr. Imes talks about biblical oath-making, the difference between ancient and modern views of law codes, and how God secures his faithfulness by swearing on Himself. If we learn to read the law as an extension of our love for God, we can see how the practices and guidance of the Torah can shape our modern life as Christians." The Gwartney team shares their thoughts about what they though of this podcast and their thoughts on the Law.
