Podcasts about resurrection city

The year is 1968. Summertime. Washington, DC. And covering the National Mall are endless rows of shacks built by hundreds of poor families from across the United States. It's called Resurrection City, and they have come to Washington to demand an end to poverty and a new economic bill of rights… for the poor.This was Martin Luther King Jr's dream. The Poor People's Campaign is what he'd been working for in the months before he was killed in April 1968. The city would last for six weeks. It would inspire thousands. Its legacy would last for decades. This is episode 51 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange. Independent investigative journalism, supported by Global Exchange's Human Rights in Action program. Each week, we'll bring you stories of resistance like this. Inspiration for dark times.

On this week's episode of the Northeast Newscast, Northeast resident and author Catherine Browder discusses her new book, "Resurrection City: Stories from the Disaster Zone" with EllieAna Hale for the Northeast News.  "Resurrection City" is a captivating collection inspired by the 2011 triple disaster that devastated Northeastern Japan. Browder takes the reader on a journey through communities rocked by each facet of the disaster—earthquake, tsunami, and the nuclear meltdown that followed.

Sunday, September 18, 2022. Preacher: Christopher Anderson.   As we as a community continue to come together, drawing in as members of Resurrection City and Table Church into one body, we also have to begin to think again about the city around us. Who are we called to help? Who is welcome at this table? If we are going to be a anti-racist, fully inclusive, radical community, then we need to also lean into the idea that we are called to reconnect with the people, places and land around us. It'll take a leaning in to the neighbors around us, each of us committing to meet others in and outside our church community, doing our own work of learning the history of DC, and getting involved. Not just as a ‘fix it', but involved in friendship and communion in the lives of those who live around us.

From the spirituals of the southern plantation fields and the soulful chords of black gospel, to the full-throated determination of protest songs demanding social justice and change during the civil rights movement – music helped unite people, forge identities and create art.

It’s not too early to mark your calendars: we’ll be back with another Advent season, beginning on November 29. I hope you’ll join me, as we wait together for God. In the meantime, everyone needs some rest from time to time, and so I’m going to be taking a little break. But I would love for you to hear from some of my friends while I’m resting! Starting this week, we’ll have special guest-hosted episodes of We Wonder every week, where you can still listen to God’s good words with some lovely and different voices. And I’ll be listening along with you! This week's episode features our friend, Mira Sawlani-Joyner. Mira's experience in Children's ministry has spanned the globe, from serving in youth ministry in Australia, to mission trips in South East Asia, South Africa and South America to most recently in leading a virtual VBS from her home in Washington DC. She is on the Launch Team of a LGBTQIA+ affirming community called Resurrection City, DC and a second year Seminarian. When she isn't navigating online learning alongside her three daughters, she finds joy in painting and practicing Yoga. Today's passage is Psalm 139:1-6, 13-14: O Lord, you have searched me and known me. 2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;   you discern my thoughts from far away. 3 You search out my path and my lying down,   and are acquainted with all my ways. 4 Even before a word is on my tongue,   O Lord, you know it completely. 5 You hem me in, behind and before,   and lay your hand upon me. 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;   it is so high that I cannot attain it. 13 For it was you who formed my inward parts;   you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.   Wonderful are your works; that I know very well. We Wonder is written and hosted by Sarah Dahl, and is produced by Richard Clark and Nick Thompson.

Revelation 21:1-5, 9-27

Today on Sojourner Truth: In May 1967, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. famously said: "it is necessary for us to realize that we have moved from the era of civil rights to the era of human rights." Later that year, in December 1967, the Rev. Dr. King publicized plans to bring together poor people from across the United States for a new march on Washington. The march was to demand better jobs, better homes, better education, and overall, better lives for the poor. In March 1968, the first gathering of over fifty multiracial organizations came together to join the Poor Peoples Campaign in Atlanta, Georgia, to plan a Poor Peoples March on Washington later that summer. Although the Rev. Dr. King was tragically assassinated the following month, the Poor Peoples Campaign moved ahead. Thousands gathered from around the United States and occupied the National Mall in Washington, D.C., where they established Resurrection City. There, they remained from May 12 (Mothers Day) until June 24, 1968, when they were forcefully evicted. Fifty-two years later " amid worsening poverty, systemic racism, war and ecological devastation " the Poor Peoples Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival is continuing that struggle. It is a fusion movement. On Saturday, June 20, 2020, millions of people in the U.S. and around the world participated in the Mass Poor Peoples Assembly and Moral March on Washington, D.C., a digital justice gathering. The digital gathering brought together poor and impacted people from diverse backgrounds who spoke out against their inter-connected injustices. Together, they are building a groundbreaking new fusion movement, led and organized by poor and impacted people. The 2020 Mass Poor Peoples Assembly and Moral March on Washington, D.C. was organized under the leadership of co-chairs Rev. Dr. William J. Barber and Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis. Today on Sojourner Truth, we bring you Part 3 of the historic event. During todays program, you will hear more testimony, solidarity messages and performances from the 2020 Mass Poor Peoples Assembly and Moral March on Washington, D.C.

The second and third part of the Lord's prayer finds the person praying asking for something. But if it's God's will they are asking for, whose will is being prayed? And what does it look like to desire God's kingdom?In this sermon, Pastor Joel describes the mingling of wills we find when humans pray for God's kingdom to come, what the kingdom is, and learn to see where God's kingdom is not in order to pray this petition.We talk about the two types of God's will, how following God's will is like playing music, and tangled cords.

One of the main differences between the people of God and the world around them is the humility with which they are called to live with. Our worship of God is what sets us apart, and one of the primary ways to live that worship out is in redefining success, giving credit where it is due, and repenting and looking to God.Pastor Julie walks through the back half of Daniel 4 to break down how Nebuchadnezzar's pride, and his repentance of it, is a model for us.

The book of Daniel, along with many other books in Scripture, offers a critique of power gone wrong, calling those in authority to acknowledge that they cannot fulfill the role of God. In this passage, King Nebuchadnezzar finds himself called to repent and turn to God.It is hard for us to understand the role of someone like Nebuchadnezzar or Caesar (or other emperors in the ancient world) both, because of how we view authority and because we live in a modern democracy. Sometimes it's good, then, to turn the magnifying glass on ourselves, and reckon whether or not we are trying to be 'Little Caesars', trying to pull off what that authority figure would do ourselves.In this sermon, Pastor Joel talks about how we can hope in the kingdom of Jesus rather than any other kingdom we might try to build up on our own.

On the campus of Sul Ross State University Rio Grande College, historical images and posters from the 1960s are mounted on easels and lined up through the halls of the Small Business Development Center. While some passersby may overlook the display, the historical and cultural significance is far from subtle. These collection of images in part of a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.

In the introduction to the new sermon series on Daniel, Pastor Joel breaks down how the plight of Israel in exile in the book of Daniel makes it a quintessential book for us to explore in our own "exile" as Christians today. And the answer is that it is a matter of staying distinct through worship of Jesus alone in all areas of our lives that leads us to bless the culture we are in.

Today we share some history on Resurrection City, a tent city erected in Washington, D.C. during the civil rights movement in protest of poverty

For the 50th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Poor People's Campaign and Resurrection City, poor and houseless people marched from the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia to Washington, DC where they are setting up a Resurrection City in DuPont Circle. We speak with Tiny (aka Lisa Gray-Garcia), co-founder of POOR Magazine and a participant on the march, about the reality of poverty in the United States. Tiny describes the march and the intersections between poverty and many other areas such as mass incarceration, health and colonization. This is a poor-led people's campaign that is not only resisting the policies and systems that drive the current crises, but is also putting forth poor people-led solutions, such as the Bank of Community Reparations and Homefulness.

Janice Ockershausen, and host Andy Ockershausen, on scheduling Joe Theismann as a guest~ "And don't forget, speaking of Charles, we've had Charles Mann, we've had Shawn Springs, we've had Mark Moseley. We're hoping to get Joe Theismann so if anybody knows Joe Theismann and can get us Joe Theismann for Season 4 that'd be much appreciated." Janice Ockershausen, with host Andy Ockershausen, in studio Our Town DC Podcast How and Why Our Town? Andy Ockershausen: This is Our Town, this is Andy Ockershausen. I think back to that wonderful, beautiful summer day we were driving down to Rehoboth Delaware to visit some very dear friends for a weekend and Janice said to me, "Honey we're losing touch and we're losing track of a lot of good things going on. Why don't we do a podcast about Washington?" I said, "What is a podcast?" That was the first time, Ken, I ever heard that word, podcast. I know it had been in our vocabulary somewhere, but I hadn't paid attention to it. Janice started me thinking and made my life, we have really established something that I never thought possible and that was we started all over again. Radio without a transmitter. Janice Ockershausen: We liked the idea of the intimate one on one conversation between two friends, whether it's at a bar or over dinner that you haven't seen somebody in a while. So that concept of sharing a relationship with either people you know or people you used to know or people you want to come to know. Andy Ockershausen: Well the thing that made it so possible was your ingenuity in planning this and planning WMAL in the picture. But because of my years in the business and because of all the people I've come in contact with it was easy for me to talk to people because I knew so much about them, maybe things they didn't think that we knew about, but we knew about. The other side of it is they were comfortable with it because they knew who I am and who I was and who I am now is you. Janice Ockershausen: Well a lot of the people that we talked to over Season 1, Season 2, and Season 3 we've had relationships with. You've lived through the news stories with people. We had Maurice Cullinane on in Season 1. You lived through the ... It was just the 50th anniversary of the Resurrection City and the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.. Andy Ockershausen: Well and being part of what happened and the shooting at the Blair House because of WMAL, way back where I was fortunate enough to start at WMAL and live through all of these things and all these talented people. People in the audience would come and say, oh I know your name because I hear it, I hear it on Harden and Weaver. I hear it on Trumbull and Core. Occasionally Ken Beatrice will talk about you. I hear you during the Redskin games, they drop your name in. So, I was known as WMAL without being a performer. WMAL Always a Breaking News Channel Janice Ockershausen: Still to this day people come up to you and say, "What's going on with WMAL?" It's been what? 30 some years. Andy Ockershausen: Who was it that was just asking me the other day? He said, you're the radio guy? I said yeah. He said, I used to- Janice Ockershausen: That was your doctor. Andy Ockershausen: Yeah and I said, this is my wife Janice Iacona. He said, oh I know that name. I remember listening to Harden and Weaver talk about Janice. I mean this was out of the blue. Janice Ockershausen: Right. I guess the biggest compliment I ever had being the producer for the Harden and Weaver show was an operator, I was calling 411 for information. Or somebody was calling to find out, getting my phone number and they said, "Oh you mean Janice Iacona? The one that works for Harden and Weaver?" So that was the C&P operator I think that it was. So that was my biggest- Andy Ockershausen: That wasn't about the Air Florida crash was it? Janice Ockershausen: No the Air Florida crash was something we both lived through. Andy Ockershausen: Right.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Poor People's Campaign, called for by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Although Dr. King was murdered a month prior to the Poor People's Campaign, it happened anyway. Resurrection City was built on the Mall in Washington, DC and people stayed there for six weeks. Fifty years later, widespread poverty exists and the "evils" of racism, capitalism and militarism are still in crisis. Two major campaigns are organizing poor people across the country. We speak with Cheri Honkala of the Poor People's Economic and Human Rights Campaign and Rev. Robin Tanner of the Repairers of the Breach. For more information, visit www.ClearingtheFOGRadio.org.

https://onthegroundshow.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/OTG-JAN19-2018-DISTsmall.mp3 This week marks many milestones. The holiday honoring the birthday of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. is being celebrated as the world also remembers the 50th anniversary of his assassination. On this show we hear voices of historians and activists speaking out at the launch of a new major exhibit, "City of Hope," curated by the National Museum of African American History and Culture and mounted at their gallery inside the National Museum of American History. The exhibit documents King's last work, the Poor Peoples Campaign and March, which ended in Washington, DC with a multi-racial encampment of three thousand people called Resurrection City on the National Mall. Headlines on DACA, government surveillance, Korea, Syria and more. Post image by Laura Jones, from "City of Hope" exhibit.
