Eusebius McKaiser hosted well-known human rights and social justice activist, Mark Heywood, on his TimesLIVE podcast. They were in conversation about how new political players, especially those who will be contesting the 2024 general elections, could maximise their chances of making a real and positive democratic difference. Heywood and McKaiser started off by sketching their respective takes on the overall state of South Africa's democracy. Both of them focused on data that reveal various deep social crises, which rob most South Africans of living meaningful lives. Given their overlapping consensus, McKaiser quickly moved on to teasing out three critical themes from Heywood about the possibility that civil society could disrupt the current party political system by contesting political power, which the likes of Rise Mzansi are intending to do, as well as individuals like well-known activist, Zackie Achmat. The bulk of the podcast episode focuses on Heywood carefully explaining three broad themes: a) the importance of actively and immediately helping communities in practical ways to demonstrate what you could do, at scale, if voted into power; b) the importance of articulating about five very clear, radical, feasible and well-thought through ideas that you campaign on; and c) the importance of co-operating as new political vehicles (rather than each working alone) in order to contest and disrupt hegemonic political power most effectively. McKaiser and Heywood ended their conversation by also briefly reflecting on a) how new political entrants might deal with donors who are reluctant to fund them; b) avoiding political ideology and terminology that are overused and wooly; and c) learning the art of clear, explanatory and persuasive political communication. Produced by Bulelani Nonyukela.

In the first episode of Season 2, I am speaking to Lauren, a wonderful yoga teacher and amateur mythologist. Lauren joins me as I start my deep dive into the importance of ancient wisdom in modern times. This is such a joyful conversation and we have a LOT of fun pulling cards from  Lauren's oracle deck and discussing Ancient Greek goddesses. We discuss what archetypes are and consider cultural appropriation versus cultural appreciation. We learn how Lauren developed a love of Greek gods and goddesses and hear the depth of her knowledge through the card pulls. We also think about how connecting to the universal energy of archetypes help us to better understand ourselves. We deep dive into some of our favourite mythological figures and compare them to other lineages to see the commonality and what they can individually teach us. About Lauren:Lauren is a yoga teacher by trade and a mythologist in her spare time. She dances her way through life interweaving her love of people, history, nature and storytelling.Website: https://www.laurengray-yoga.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/LaurenGrayYogaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurengray_yoga/About Meghan:Meghan Field is a Qoya Teacher, Embodiment Coach, Irish Celtic Shaman and Social Justice Activist who lives in Cornwall, U.K.  Meghan is the Violence Against Women and Girls Strategic Lead for Plymouth City, has her own consultancy practice, is the owner of Sacred Kernow Retreats, the founder of The Intuition Conversations Podcast and the creator of multiple oracle decks.

How does craft deepen your understanding of your history, your community, or yourself? And how can predominantly-white craft spaces better welcome diverse experiences?Textile artist and printmaker Jen Hewett threads the needle on these questions in her latest book, This Long Thread: Women of Color on Craft, Community and Connection. The book includes interviews with 19 fiber artists, and surveys hundreds of creators of color, all of whom draw on their relationship with making. This hour, we hear from Hewett – and briefly, from writer Mia Nakaji Monnier. Plus, Susi Ryan is an author and social justice activist from Connecticut who co-founded the quilt guild, Sisters In Stitches Joined By The Cloth. Ryan recently wrote a piece about how craft connects her to her ancestors, titled "Cloth Has Given Me A Voice," for Mass Humanities' We, Too, Are America series. She says, "Cloth has given me a voice to recall the memory of my enslaved ancestors. The quilts that I create visually depict and document in cloth the life journeys of my family, my ancestors, and the many others who lived through the African diaspora," Ryan writes. "The stories my quilts tell allow me to ease into uncomfortable conversations about such critical issues as racism, social and medical justice, prison reform, African American history and literature, farm, food and housing sustainability, climate change, women's rights, religion, politics, and human trafficking, that sadly still exists today."

Join this insightful discussion with Collective Liberation and Social Justice Activist, Iye Bako. In this chat with host Shriya, Iye recalls how her health journey propelled her entry into Animal Rights, addresses the importance of representation in the movement, emphasizes the power of seeking inspiration from and collaborating with other social justice movements, and drives home the message that all oppression is interconnected. But that doesn't have to be a daunting undertaking. Because by pulling a single thread in the fabric of oppression, we can untangle and dismantle ALL oppression. A just, equitable, vegan world is one where every living, feeling, sentient being is granted the respect they inherently deserve.Check out Iye's recommended resources for embracing inclusivity within the Animal Rights movement: Christopher SebastianIsaias Hernandez (@queerbrownvegan)Total Liberation Podcast by Mexie,Vegan Warrior Princesses Attack (no longer make new episodes)The Bearded Vegans (no longer make new episodes)Books by Aph and Syl Ko— Aphro-ism, and Racism as Zoological WitchcraftFollow Iye on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, and support her work here.-------Upcoming AAM Events:Chicago Convergence: July 29 - Aug 7Ohio Occurrence: Sep 2 - Sep 4For more information on these events, our online workshops, and much more, visit our Linktree:linktr.ee/animalactivismmentorshipTo support our work: Patreon.com/AnimalActivismMentorshipFollow @AnimalActivismMentorship on Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube to keep up with the podcast. Join the conversation in the AAM club on Clubhouse and the Animal Activism Mentorship Community Facebook group.Want to get active for the animals but don't know where to start? Sign up for a free mentor at AnimalActivismMentorship.comAAM is fueled by FARM (Farm Animal Rights Movement).Please remember to rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast!

As a young girl, Alexie Torres climbed atop the radiator underneath her ninth floor window in the Bronx River Public Housing Projects, watching fires burn through her borough. Torres didn’t understand that these fires were a result of “planned shrinkage” and “urban renewal” in the 1960s and 70s -- which meant, in theory, that municipal authorities could close down public services with the intention of redesigning and rebuilding better. For the residents of the South Bronx, though, it didn’t turn out “better." Fire stations were shut down even as fire emergencies rose, and residents, who had no voice in the rebuilding of their own communities, were increasingly displaced.  These early impressions would lead Torres to social and environmental justice, locally and nationally. By her early 20s, she founded Youth Ministries for Peace and Justice (YMPJ) where she labored with young people on issues from policing to education and environmental justice. A cornerstone of her work was the reclamation of the Bronx River, which was highly industrialized and inaccessible to her community. She co-founded the Bronx River Alliance, which today continues the work of protecting the river.  As an urban planner, activist for environmental justice, and community organizer, Torres has lived into the full meaning of her given name, Alexie: “Defender of Humankind.” Torres’s mother and father were immigrants who came to the U.S. from Puerto Rico as teenagers. After being homeless for a while, her father got a job as a deli man, a dishwasher, and ultimately moved up to become a maintenance man in the public housing projects in which she was raised. As Torres grew up, despite how much she loved her family and community, she learned that the rest of the world would define her success by how far away she could escape from them. So in her 20s, she left the Bronx for Manhattan. Working a corporate career, she became “a conscientious objector to [her] own story,” But during that time, she also became involved with the Williamsburg activist group, El Puente, her introduction to the power of grassroots organizing. In 1992, Torres returned to the South Bronx to participate in Holy Cross parish’s anti-drug rally. When local drug dealers attempted to burn down the church and intimidate them, twelve hundred neighbors -- those the world might deem powerless -- came forward to march. “[To have] people coming from the margins and into the center,” Torres reflected, “… that's where the heart of my planning heart was born.” She went on to found YMPJ, with the mission to prepare young people to become prophetic voices for peace and justice, and served as its executive director for 17 years. Through YMPJ and affiliate projects, Torres has helped create new parks, provide access to the Bronx River, and clean up brownfields. Despite these external achievements, she recognizes that it is “even more important that I contribute to leaving a legacy of a community that understands its own power.” In 2013, Torres was awarded the prestigious Loeb Fellowship through Harvard University. Her service on the national stage has included the White House Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, which aimed to reduce poverty and inequality and create opportunity for all. She is the Managing Director of Jubilee Gift, board member of Fr. Richard Rohr’s Center for Action and Contemplation, and most recently, co-creator of the Soul of the Movement Fund to connect healers and wisdom keepers to social movements. For her body of work, she has been named one of "50 Visionaries Changing Our World." A mother of two, Torres has inspired a new generation of young leaders dedicated to promoting peace and justice in their communities. Her vision for change in the face of daunting obstacles has led to success in her efforts to effect positive change within public spaces and marginalized communities. She is a national voice on issues of faith, community organizing, and the sacred work of social justice. Please join us in conversation with this dynamic grassroots activist and defender of humankind.
