Podcasts about Robert Wilkins

Hay dos formas que intentamos encontrar realización y satisfacción en esta vida: una haciendo lo que se espera de nosotros y otra buscando por nosotros mismos, lo que nos parece que más nos conviene. Ninguno de los dos caminos nos dará la vida que anhelamos. Esa es la gran lección de la conocida historia que Jesús nos cuenta en el capítulo 15 del Evangelio según Lucas, sobre un padre que tenía dos hijos, no uno como se la suele llamar, la parábola del hijo pródigo. En ella Jesús nos enseña que tan perdido y lejos del corazón del Padre, está uno como otro. Sólo en ese Hermano Mayor que es Jesús está "el camino, la verdad y la vida". El veterano cantautor y multiinstrumentista Ry Cooder hizo en 2018 un disco con su hijo sobre "El hijo pródigo" (Prodigal Son). Escuchamos el "blues" que le da título en una versión que grabó en vivo en un estudio. Ese mismo nombre tiene el "blues" del Rev. Robert Wilkins (1896-1987) que dieron a conocer los Rolling Stones en su disco "Beggars Banquet" (El banquete de los vagabundos) en el mítico año de 1968. La que fue compositora y cantante de 10.000 Maniacs, Natalie Merchant, se ve también en 2014 como "La oveja negra" (Black Sheep) y ruega por la misericordia de Dios. La expresión "Rebelde sin causa" no es del autor de la película que lleva ese nombre en 1955, Nicholas Ray, pero la toma de un estudio psicológico sobre la delincuencia juvenil que aparece en los 50 con la ruptura generacional. El papel que encarna James Dean poco antes de morir, muestra la desorientación de ese hijo que parte a una provincia lejana para malgastar la vida con lo que el padre le ha dado, como si estuviera muerto. Escuchamos la presentación de su personaje, junto al de Natalie Wood y Sal Mineo al principio de la película en la comisaria en que son detenidos. José de Segovia comenta las escenas con la música de la banda sonora original de Leonard Rosenman. Amy Grant nos da la versión femenina de "La pródiga" (The Prodigal) en su famoso disco de 1985 (Unguarded). El cantautor uruguayo Luis Alfredo Díaz hizo en Burgos un tema inspirado en esta historia, "Te espera", que incluyó en el vinilo que firmó con el grupo Maná en 1979, "Baja a Dios de las nubes". Switchfoot es un grupo de San Diego que hicieron a finales de los 90, dos hijos de un pastor de la Capilla Calvario al norte de California, Foreman, que nace de la llegada de tantos "hippies" al cristianismo en el sur de California a principios de los 70. En 2019 cantan al "Alma pródiga" (Prodigal Soul). De la Capilla Calvario sale también la Comunidad de la Viña, que atrajo a finales de los 70 a muchos músicos a la fe, como el propio Bob Dylan o Keith Green, que hizo una "suite" sobre el hijo pródigo, que escuchamos un fragmento al final del programa. En estos últimos temas descubrimos que quien es verdaderamente pródigo en el sentido de generoso en exceso es el Padre de esta historia. Como el predicador de Nueva York, Tim Keller, mostró a partir del sermón que escuchó a su tutor, Ed Clowney. es la Gracia de Dios, la protagonista de esta historia, que vemos en en ese Hijo Mayor que ha venido a buscarnos y darnos su vida, para llevarnos a Casa.

This episode features a previously un-aired portion of the season one episode “Long Road to Hard Truth: The 100 Year Mission to Create the National Museum of African American History and Culture.” On that episode, Judge Paul Friedman of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia sat down with Judge Robert Wilkins of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to talk about his book of the same title. During the recording of that episode, Judge Wilkins mentioned a personal experience that he went through in the 1990s, a lawsuit that he filed against the Maryland State Police. This lawsuit ended up being a game changer. Judge Friedman asked Judge Wilkins to share his story, which we now present in this standalone episode.

DC Circuit Appeals panel hears net neutrality oral arguments A three-judge panel of the DC Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral arguments from the government and consumer advocates last week as consumer advocates’ lawsuit against the FCC for repealing the 2015 open internet rules presses on. Two of the judges—Particia Millett and Robert Wilkins—both Obama appointees—seemed to side with the consumer advocates as the FCC struggled to persuade the court that the agency had the authority to reclassify broadband as an information service. Report: FamilyTreeDNA works with the FBI BuzzFeed reported that popular home DNA testing company Family Tree DNA is working with the FBI, allowing agents to access its database to investigate violent crimes.  Privacy advocates object to the partnership. But others say that as more people sign up for genetic tests, the data has become increasingly valuable to solve cold cases, with the arrest last year of the suspected Golden State Killer being a prime example. Feds charge second Chinese Apple car worker with data theft The feds have charged a second Apple engineer with stealing company trade secrets with a plan to bring them back to China. Another Apple employee spotted Jizhong Chen taking snapshots of his workspace with a wide angle lens even though he was working under an NDA.  Apparently Chen had some 2,000 files on his hard drive, including manuals and schematics.  He says he was going to China to see family. But the feds allege he was actually planning to bring the files back to a Chinese car manufacturer he’d applied for a job with. It’s the second Apple employee charged with stealing trade secrets from the company’s self-driving car unit.

Wilkins, federal judge, United States Court of Appeals, author, Long Road to Hard Truth: The 100-Year Mission to Create the National Museum of African American History and Culture Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Judge Robert L. Wilkins by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of determined African American men and women – and their ancestors – who won’t take no for an answer… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Long Road to Hard Truth: The 100 Year Mission to Create the National Museum of African American History and Culture by Robert Wilkins. Order your copy today by clicking on the book cover above! First clear giveaway that I’m a white guy: I didn’t even know there was a National Museum of African American History and Culture in the works until the year it opened—2016. I thought it was and is a great idea, long overdue, but I honestly had never heard a word about it. Once I did, however, I was like a lot of people who thought, “What took us so damn long to get around to it?” And now that I’ve read Judge Robert L. Wilkins’ new book, Long Road to Hard Truth: The 100-Year Mission to Create the National Museum of African American History and Culture, I have a pretty good idea why it took so long and why a lot of well-intended folks like me knew nothing about it before it was literally right in front of our noses. JUDGE ROBERT L. WILKINS podcast excerpt: "I grew up feeling that I was a little bit less- than my white counterparts. Learning about African American history over the years was, for me, a way to affirm my sense of self and to help improve my self-esteem. But also to appreciate the opportunities that I had, that people had literally fought, bled and died for to get me a good education and have equal opportunities to compete for the best jobs." Judge Wilkins compresses a century of Black frustration into about 150 politically charged pages of history. I’m curious to find out how he can even discuss it without screaming, but that’s why he’s a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. A Harvard Law grad doesn’t rise to this level without learning how to stay composed and restrained, even in the face of ridiculous obstruction and political nonsense. Judge Wilkins, by the way, served as chairman of the site and building committee of the Presidential Commission that Congress finally established to plan the museum. Incidentally, we will not be discussing current political issues, in case you were wondering. JUDGE ROBERT L. WILKINS podcast excerpt: "The sense that I have is that President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney felt it was the right thing to do. This had been in the works for decades. They believed this was something that could help the country learn from its mistakes in history. And that it could help unify the country." Key interview moments: • 7:35 Federal judge Robert L. Wilkins talks about the personal reasons that he devote nearly two decades of his life to carry the creation of the National Museum of African American History and Culture to the finish line after starts and stops for the previous 80 years; • 23:45 Wilkins talks about the Four Musketeers of Congress that formed an unlikely coalition to push museum funding through the House and Senate; • 29:56 Two of the most surprising champions of the National Museum of African American History and Culture were President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. No kidding. Judge Robert L. Wilkins U.S. Court of Appeals, D.C.

In what is described as the fitting coda to his administration, President Obama cut the ribbon of the Smithsonian's new National Museum of African American History and Culture on 24 September. Journalists Jesse J Holland and Robin N Hamilton are onsite in Washington DC for BBC World Service to hear from the architects, curators, donors, and expectant visitors who have travelled hundreds of miles to celebrate its grand opening. Taking the last spot on America's National Mall, the museum – a beautiful three-tiered structure sheathed in bronze metalwork - opens after what's described as the hardest curatorial job in history. It has been more than ten years in the making. It's a museum that will explain, celebrate and confront the African American experience. At a time of racial tension, its mission to heal is seen as vital too. Museum director Lonnie Bunch, congressman John Lewis and judge Robert Wilkins describe the challenges of creating a museum which aims to tell the story of America through the lens of the African American experience. A story which is bound to provoke distress and anger as well as joy and admiration - something the museum's 250 volunteers are being specially trained to deal with. We hear from two founding donors, Samuel L Jackson and General Colin Powell about the importance of having a national museum dedicated to African American history and culture. From locations across the USA - Philadelphia, Detroit, Houston, St Louis, Nashville - we uncover stories behind the museum's varied new acquisitions, largely told by the donors themselves: from Harriet Tubman's Hymn book to Lauren Anderson's ballet shoes, protest banners from Ferguson, the late music producer J Dilla's synthesizer, and a former slave's printing press. And we follow inspirational young divers in South Florida working in partnership with the museum to locate long-lost slave wrecks.

The Prodigal Son is a parable that most of us have heard all of our life. Reverend Dean Beverly Gibson (Christ Church Cathedral) explores a new perspective of the “prodigal son”. What if we look at the “Prodigal Son” as an adventurer instead of someone that is “wasteful?”. Did the returning Son transform to a better version of himself after his return to his loving home? Of course, Johnny finds another opportunity to mention his hero Kris Kristofferson. Plus, manages to mention the Rolling Stones version of the “Prodigal Son” written by Rev. Robert Wilkins. Daily takeaway: Vulnerability and embracing being lost can be a blessing and allow yourself to be the first to tell others “I Love You.” What you might learn: > God loves “finding” & the three parables of Luke. > Considering the Prodigal Son as a “risk-taker” not “wasteful.” (Luke 15:11-32) >  BCP Rite 1 and the Episcopal “comfort-zone.” > Brené Brown – The power of vulnerability & the loss of connection in relationships. > The River Jordan and passing to the unknown. > Trust and the reset button. > The “disgrace of Egypt clarification. (Joshua 5:9-12) > Are we “ambassadors of Christ?” (2 Corinthians 5:16-21) > Why Me Lord (Kris Kristofferson*) reference to The Prodigal Son. > The strength of the willingness to be weak. > The message of salvation for the afterlife or the daily life? * this is not becoming a Kris Kristofferson fan podcast…promise!

Biomedical tutors Helen Christian and Robert Wilkins explain the whys and wherefores of the Oxford interview, and give tips on how best to prepare for the medicine interview. This podcast will be of particular interest to those who applied to study medicine at Oxford.

Robert Timothy Wilkins was a seminal blues guitarist and vocalist. Of African American and Cherokee descent, he was born January 16, 1896, in Hernando, Mississippi, 21 miles from Memphis, Tennessee. He died May 26, 1987. Wilkins worked in Memphis during the 1920s at the same time as Furry Lewis, Memphis Minnie (whom he claimed to have tutored), and Son House. He also organized a jug band to capitalize on the "jug band craze" then in vogue. Though never attaining success comparable to the Memphis Jug Band, Wilkins reinforced his local popularity with a 1927 appearance on a Memphis radio station. Like Sleepy John Estes (and unlike Gus Cannon of Cannon's Jug Stompers) he recorded alone or with a single accompanist. He sometimes performed as Tim Wilkins or as Tim Oliver (his step-father's name). His best known songs are "That's No Way To Get Along" (covered as "The Prodigal Son" by The Rolling Stones), "Rolling Stone" (covered by Muddy Waters and which inspired The Rolling Stones very name), and "Old Jim Canan's". He became an elder of the Church of God in Christ in the 1930s and began playing gospel music with a blues feel. The "Reverend" Robert Wilkins was rediscovered by blues enthusiasts during the 1960s blues revival, making appearances at folk festivals and recording his gospel blues for a new audience. His distinction was his versatility; he could play ragtime, blues, minstrel songs, and gospel with equal facility
