This week we consider the Christian's relationship to revolution. In the first reading, we ask how the Christian is to relate to the 'spirit of Revolution' embodied in the French Revolution (a movement that is still with us, bearing fruit in our own politics and society). Towards the end of the episode we consider Francis Schaeffer and Samuel Rutherford in their arguments for civil resistance to ungodly authority. Is it right to oppose the humanistic revolutionary spirit, if necessary, by force?

Welcome to Season Five season five of the "Fierce Authenticity Podcast," where host Shirani M. Pathak reconnects with her audience after a significant hiatus. This season marks a return to the podcast's roots—a space stripped of unnecessary embellishments and devoted purely to authentic communication and spiritual guidance. As Shirani reflects on her journey from clinical burnout and personal health crises to spiritual reawakening, the podcast takes on a rejuvenated, unmasked direction aimed at making meaningful connections with a like-minded community. This episode embodies elements of vulnerability and transformation, exploring how Shirani's personal evolution guides her podcast's future. Key themes include overcoming societal pressures to "mask" one's true self, the importance of slowing down amidst a fast-paced world, and the need to build community among souls who have been through similar journeys before. Shirani emphasizes that her work transcends titles, focusing instead on being a vessel for divine love and wisdom. Drawing insights from her study of "A Course in Miracles," Shirani opens up about being present in the moment to perceive what is truly real amidst a landscape of distortions.   Key Takeaways: Shirani M. Pathak is refocusing her podcast on authenticity and spiritual guidance, moving away from conforming to external pressures to mask. The podcast will release one to two monthly episodes, aiming for a slower, more thoughtful pace to allow for deeper integration of themes. Shirani candidly shares her experiences with burnout and health crises, emphasizing the importance of personal transformation and healing. Emphasizing community, the podcast seeks to connect with others who have similarly experienced feeling like outsiders but have unique gifts to offer. Being—cultivating a state of presence and communication with reality—is crucial to advancing personal and collective human consciousness. Notable Quotes: "Being is a state in which the mind is in communication with everything that is real." "Life is too short to be anybody else but your fierce and authentic self." "When you stop people pleasing, people won't be pleased." "We are simply, I don't care if you call me a healer, I don't care if you call me a mentor, if you call me a coach, if you call me a spiritual teacher. It no longer matters." "We need to intentionally create time and space to slow down." Resources: Shirani M.

In her stunning new book, Giving to God: Islamic Charity in Revolutionary Times (University of California Press, 2019), Amira Mittermaier, Associate Professor of Religion and Anthropology at the University of Toronto, conducts a dazzling and at many times moving ethnography of an Islamic economy of giving and charity in Egypt. By presenting an intimate portrait of a range of actors and organizations, who both give and receive charity, Mittermaier highlights often unrecognized political practices and horizons that disrupt dominant liberal secular logics of humanitarian charity. In our conversation, we discussed a range of topics including the productive tension between revolutionary politics and everyday practices of giving, competing visions of the “poor” and of the interaction of charity and justice, intersections of social and divine justice, the relationship between eschatology, pious practices of charity, and the materiality of the everyday, and the political possibilities offered by “Giving to God” in a moment in Egypt marked by the rise and dominance of neoliberal authoritarianism. This splendidly written book will be widely discussed and debated by scholars of Islam, anthropology, religion, and the Middle East; it will also make a terrific text for courses on these and other topics.

"We're in revolutionary times"Kenneth and James flashed their access all areas passes to sneak backstage at IFC. They managed to grab a seat in the Press Room for a conversation between two big-hitters, Bill Toliver and Erica Chenoweth before the latter takes to the big stage for their plenary speech.They dive straight in talking people power; revolution; divide and rule; and power relations between our opponents. Erica describes the power of hope and the critical mass for societal change as well as describing their work writing a Phd in violent conflict. There's the power and dangers of digital in movements and surveillance, the ice bucket challenge and the most beautiful mullets of 1983 before Kenneth made a pitch for ‘smartest person in the room' by braving a question at the end (a valiant but doomed effort).--You can support the show through Patreon and find us on www.domoregood.uk or follow us on Twitter and Instagram.

The legendary thinker and radical historian Robin DG Kelley joins us to discuss the importance of the radical imagination and the history of workers' writing. Kelley is author of many books on the history of labour and anti-racist struggles, and about luminary proletarian creative figures. These include: Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination, Race Rebels: Culture, Politics, and the Black Working Class, and Africa Speaks, America Answers: Modern Jazz in Revolutionary Times. In this conversation, Kelley explains how, in the face of corporate and capitalist power, which has never failed to mobilize racism, working people have consistently turned to the written word as a tool of solidarity and a means to demand a different future. In an age of digital capitalism where corporations like Amazon dominate the market for books, films and other "content," reclaiming the power to create and share works of the imagination are more important than ever. * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Kelley * http://www.beacon.org/Freedom-Dreams-P1855.aspx The Workers' Speculative Society is a research podcast about the world Amazon is building and the workers, writers and communities that are demanding a different future.

The world was a very different place when Robin DG Kelley's renowned book Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination was first published in 2002. As the reality of post-9/11 America and the war on terror hardened into a dystopian, jingoistic consensus, and as the global economy careened towards impending catastrophe, the possibility of a future in which peace, justice, and equality reigned had all but disappeared. And yet, as people in the darkest of times throughout human history have done, many still had the audacity to dream of—and fight for—something better. Now, 20 years later, as we face the reality that unchecked capitalist pillage, endless war, and climate catastrophe have put humanity on a path to mutually assured destruction, the future seems bleaker than ever, and the possibility of averting disaster feels more unattainable than ever. How do we confront the enormity of all this devastation and still keep fighting? How can we keep hope alive that we can save ourselves, humanity, and the planet when the world around us gives us so little cause for hope? As we continue the impossible struggle for a better world, how do we deal with constant failure without succumbing to defeat?In this special interview, TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez and Kelley grapple with these questions and discuss the continued necessity of freedom dreaming—and fighting like hell—in the face of catastrophe. Robin DG Kelley is currently the Distinguished Professor and Gary B. Nash Endowed Chair in US History in the Department of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. His research has explored the history of social movements in the US, the African diaspora, and Africa; Black intellectuals; music and visual culture; surrealism, and Marxism, among other vital topics.

Political revolutions often go hand-in-hand with revolutions in money. Stores of value change, the way we make payments changes, our attitudes to credit change. According to Rebecca Spang, professor of history at Indiana University, the author of a prize-winning 2015 book called ‘Stuff and Money at the time of the French Revolution’ and our interviewee in the latest New Money Review podcast, we may once again be living in revolutionary times. “Past institutions no longer feel legitimate or stable,” she says in the podcast. “The level of instability and uncertainty does make this a revolutionary moment.” “We are seeing quite epic and dysfunctional levels of inequality,” says Spang. When the French revolution took place in 1789, those owning debts suddenly wanted to be paid. France’s credit-based monetary system fell apart and the country hit a severe liquidity crisis. France then embarked on one of the most famous monetary experiments in history: it issued a new paper form of money that was notionally backed by the property wealth of the old régime. This so-called ‘assignat’ experiment eventually caused severe inflation and in 1803 France went back to a gold standard. Could our current infatuation with different forms of money—from bitcoin to meme stocks and non-fungible tokens (NFTs)—be indicators of a shift similar to the one that took place in France more than two centuries ago? Listen to the podcast to hear Spang and New Money Review editor Paul Amery discuss: Why we may be living through a monetary and political revolution Why France’s King Louis XVI had ‘fabulous wealth but very little money’ How credit-based systems can fall into a liquidity crisis Why France’s land-backed money experiment failed How US civil war ‘greenbacks’ drew on France’s revolutionary money history How cryptocurrencies have revived arguments for privately issued money

The conceptual and practical use of racial capitalism by many young activists who were shocked and ignited by their exposure to the events that spurred Ferguson, the uprising in Baltimore, continual state violence at the hands of a hyper militarized police force…and the many reflective actions produced in settler colony seeking to still become a nation-state…has taken on a life that I would argue is less a tool of analysis, but simply a catch phrase. The work to bridge the gap in intellectual engagement and the work it necessitates once understood, is still wide. However, this work is not something that Africana thinkers and activist have shied away from. The long tradition of radical thought and revolutionary practice is found in the cultural membrane of African peoples wherever they are found. The struggle—internal and external—to express and evolve ones' full humanity is the eternal beacon that motivates Africana social, economic, political, and cultural life—whether consciously or unconsciously. So, what is racial capitalism? What did Cedric Robinson mean when he highlighted and explored the development of racial capitalism? Cedric Robinson challenged the Marxist idea that capitalism was a revolutionary negation of feudalism. Instead capitalism emerged within the European feudal order and flowered in the cultural soil of a Western civilization already thoroughly infused with racialism. Capitalism and racism, in other words, did not break from the old order but rather evolved from it to produce a modern world system of “racial capitalism” dependent on slavery, violence, imperialism, and genocide. In addition to this, Robinson was acutely aware of Du Bois's articulation of racial capitalism in his work Black Reconstruction, where he wrote that “The giant forces of water and of steam were harnessed to do the world's work, and the black workers of America bent at the bottom of a growing pyramid of commerce and industry; and they not only could not be spared, if this new economic organization was to expand, but rather they became the cause of new political demands and alignments, of new dreams of power and visions of empire, Today, we will take a deep dive in expanding and solidifying our understanding of racial capitalism in the context of this temporal space we call…right now…with Robin D.G. Kelley. Robin D. G. Kelley is Distinguished Professor of History and Black Studies & Gary B. Nash Endowed Chair in U.S. History at UCLA, and current Chair of the Department of African American Studies. He is author of a number of books, which include Africa Speaks, America Answers: Modern Jazz in Revolutionary Times; Hammer and Hoe: Alabama Communists During the Great Depression; Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original; Race Rebels: Culture, Politics, and the Black Working Class; His latest book project is tentatively titled, The Education of Ms. Grace Halsell: An Intimate History of the American Century.

E. B. Du Bois and Amiri Baraka. You can catch Pt. 1 of our conversation on our SoundCloud archive.

Jenkins; The Feel Trio, A Poetics of the Undercommons; consent not to be a single being; and co-author, with Stefano Harney, of The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning and Black Study. We then shift our mental energy a bit… In a January 2017 article in the Boston Review, Robin D. G. Kelley asks: So what did Robinson mean by “racial capitalism”? Professor Kelley answers this question, by arguing that: Cedric Robinson, building on the work of another forgotten black radical intellectual, sociologist Oliver Cox, challenged the Marxist idea that capitalism was a revolutionary negation of feudalism. Instead capitalism emerged within the European feudal order and flowered in the cultural soil of a Western civilization already thoroughly infused with racialism. Capitalism and racism, in other words, did not break from the old order but rather evolved from it to produce a modern world system of “racial capitalism” dependent on slavery, violence, imperialism, and genocide. Capitalism was “racial” not because of some conspiracy to divide workers or justify slavery and dispossession, but because racialism had already permeated Western feudal society. The first European proletarians were racial subjects (Irish, Jews, Roma or Gypsies, Slavs, etc.) and they were victims of dispossession, colonialism, and slavery within Europe. Cedric Robinson goes on to suggest that racialization within Europe was very much a colonial process involving invasion, settlement, expropriation, and racial hierarchy. Insisting that modern European nationalism was completely bound up with racialist myths… " What we will hear next, Professor Kelley reflect on race, class, and movements using Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition (Cedric Robinson) in the wake of the emergence of the Movement for Black Lives.

Examining the relationship between Ukrainians and Jews in Revolutionary Times, 1917-1920.Written and narrated by Peter Bejger.Centennials offer moments for reflection. The one hundredth anniversary of a major turning point in history provides an excellent opportunity for re-evaluation and reconsideration.In the spring of 1917 the Russian Empire came to an abrupt end. The Russian Revolution consumed the former imperial capital of Petrograd. Ukraine was breaking away, and Jewish and Ukrainian political leaders in Kyiv moved boldly to set up a striking new relationship between the two nationalities.This new relationship—and its eventual failure—is examined in the book A Prayer for the Government: Ukrainians and Jews in Revolutionary Times, 1917-1920, published in 1999.The author, Dr. Henry Abramson, serves as Dean at Touro's Lander College of Arts and Sciences in Brooklyn, New York. A native of northern Ontario, he received his PhD in History from the University of Toronto in 1995. He has gone on to visiting and post-doctoral positions at Cornell, Harvard, Oxford, and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.Abramson writes that a potential newborn friendship between Ukrainians and Jews emerged in that revolutionary year of 1917. This was a tentative rapprochement between two groups that had lived for centuries in what Abramson calls an “intimate insularity.”This newborn friendship at first blossomed, resulting in the appointment by the new Ukrainian government of the first Minister of Jewish Affairs in modern history. This was an attempt to provide Jewish political autonomy in the new Ukrainian state.It was what Abramson called a bright chapter in the long history of the Jewish people. One in which Jews were emancipated into a free state. And they were given privileges as a minority that exceeded even those in Western Europe and America.However, Abramson points out Ukrainian parties could not communicate their liberal program to the peasantry. And he noted Jewish activists were too far removed from the ordinary Jewish citizen to mobilize widespread support for the Ministry of Jewish Affairs.By the spring of 1919 Ukraine was submerged by a wave of violence. This was one of the darkest chapters of Jewish history, with pogroms that were only overshadowed later by the Holocaust.Abramson’s meticulous account traces how the attempt by both Jews and Ukrainians to achieve a working political relationship was betrayed by less enlightened attitudes among the general population.Abramson also addresses the national agendas that have emerged in the historiography of Ukrainian-Jewish relations during the revolution. This issue has been particularly fraught since the assassination of the Ukrainian revolutionary leader Symon Petliura in Paris in 1926. His assassin, Samuel Schwartzbard, was acquitted in a controversial trial.Abramson acknowledges the trial has overshadowed Ukrainian-Jewish relations, and heavily influenced historical research, up to this very day. Scholars have attempted to either justify or condemn the trial’s outcome. Most studies have focused on either the anti-Jewish pogroms or the participation of Jews in the Ukrainian revolutionary movement. Abramson’s stated goal is to provide a synthesis of these two trends and to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the period.At the end of the day Abramson concedes that the prognosis for Jewish autonomy in Ukraine, and by extension cordial Jewish-Ukrainian relations, was poor. He notes that first of all, the stratum of society that participated in the rapprochement between the two communities was too thin. It was not well grounded in the population at large.Most importantly, See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
