Matt Crawford speaks with author Sonja Williams about her book, A Kid's Guide to Life Choices. When should we start to think about financial planning and even retirement? In our teens is the best time and William's book lays out key points for our teens to really latch on to. I learned so much from this book and discovered conversations I wish I had with my parents when I was younger. Easily accessible and a book I feel we should read along with our kids.

Rev. Sonja B. Williams, Ph.D. joins me to talk about racism, Black Lives Matter, and the state of the church and the academy in this important episode of the Liminal Theology Podcast. Sonja is the Dean of Students at Eden Theological Seminary in St. Louis Missouri. In part 1, we discuss a "nation on hospice," connecting Sonja's time as a hospice chaplain with the current situation in America. We explore the importance of conversation, listening, and activism during this crucial turning point in history. Sonja argues that it's time for the church to get involved and move beyond "thoughts and prayers." Her question for the church is: "Have you prepared us for this moment?"

Sonja Williams has always loved music and that led her to award-winning public radio shows. She now is a professor in the Department of Media, Journalism, and Film at Howard University and just penned her first book. She has amassed an amazing body of work in broadcast and print since receiving her master’s degree in Communication from at Ohio University. During her career Williams has received three prestigious George Foster Peabody Awards for Significant and Meritorious Achievement for groundbreaking music programming and audio documentaries for National Public Radio, Public Radio International and the Smithsonian Institution. She created a 26 part audio documentary called Wade in the Water: African American Sacred Music Traditions, Black Radio: Telling It Like it Was and NPR’s Making the Music with Wynton Marsalis. Williams talks with Spectrum's Tom Hodson about her early days in radio and how she was able to marry her love for music with her passion for audio storytelling. Williams has now turned her career to print. She discusses her new book, Word Warrior: Richard Durham, Radio and Freedom, just published in 2015 by the University of Illinois Press. It is a biography about a “gifted broadcast dramatist, journalist and activist” – who lived from 1917 to 1984. He wrote radio dramas in the 1940’s and had a radio series called Destination Freedom. In addition to his radio work, he was an investigative reporter for the Chicago Defender, wrote television shows and ghost-wrote Muhammad Ali’s book The Greatest. Durham was posthumously induced into the National Radio Hall of Fame in his hometown of Chicago. Williams discusses, in depth, the book and her legendary career in public broadcasting.
Our pre-SCMS Atlanta episode includes a detailed report from the Radio Preservation Task Force Conference, featuring interviews with Josh Shepperd, Sonja Williams, Gerald Seligman, and Wendy Shay. In addition, we present a segment on the history and legacy of the SCMS Latino/a Caucus, from Luisela Alvaray, Laura Isabel Serna, and Rielle Navitski, featuring interviews with Margarita De La Vega-Hurtado and Charles Ramírez Berg. See you in Atlanta for SCMS 2016!
Sonja D. Williams‘ book Word Warrior: Richard Durham, Radio, and Freedom (University of Illinois Press, 2015) connects its subject to some of the most important events and social movements of his time, including what we now call the Civil Rights Movement and the Great Migration. Durham’s life path, like that of many other African Americans born in the early part of the 20th century, goes from the Jim Crow South, to Chicago, where his family builds a solid middle-class existence founded on educational attainment and hard work. Durham’s writing career included poetry, newspapers, radio, television, and a celebrated biography of Muhammad Ali. Durham also played a significant role in the election of the first black mayor of Chicago, his high school friend, Harold Washington. In this engaging interview, Sonja Williams sheds important light on an unassuming man who was most comfortable quietly but forcefully serving the causes he believed in from behind the scenes.
