Exploring the lives of three Jewish doctors. Living in very different settings, yet linked by a common thread: compassion. They left a lasting mark on medicine and Jewish history and were dedicated to the strong belief that every fragile life matters. In New York, Dr Martin Couney helped save thousands of babies. His sideshow displays were controversial, but at a time when incubator technology was widely doubted, his exhibits brought life-saving technology into the public eye. Dr Mary Gordon was born in Lithuania and her trailblazing career as a pioneering female physician who was deeply connected to Jewish life, allowed her to carry her medical calling into some of the hardest moments of the twentieth century, in Palestine, in detention camps in Cyprus and through world wars. Dr Shlomo Adler's reputation in London as a beloved doctor and trusted medical confidant to Gedolim and Torah leaders as well as to thousands of patients, rested on his complete commitment to care, innovation and halacha. We also hear from his son Dr Yossi Adler - who has continued a 3 generational family legacy - about AI and other issues confronting medicine today   Timestamps: - **0:00:00 – 0:01:13** – Podcast intro, series context (Medicine Part 2), and mention of guests (Rabbi Tatz & Dr. Yossi Adler) - **0:01:13 – 0:02:16** – Introduction of Mary Gordon;

In hierdie bemoedigende episode van Radio Cape Pulpit se program Kopskuif (aangebied deur Mirza XTN in samewerking met die RTKV), gesels die gasheer met twee toegewyde gemeenskapswerkers: Suzie Matlalo en Sybil Lau. Suzie, reeds sedert 1988 by die ATKV betrokke, deel hoe sy Afrikaans leer nadat sy dit nie goed verstaan het nie, en hoe dit gelei het tot die ontstaan van “Afrikaans vir Almal” – Saterdagklasse wat kinders help om Afrikaans met selfvertroue te praat, te lees en te slaag vir eksamens. Die projek het begin met net drie kinders en het sedertdien uitgebrei na vyf verskillende punte in Soweto, Flehof en Dipswood. Sybil verduidelik hoe leesvaardigheid die grondslag is vir sukses in alle skoolvakke en in die lewe. Hulle bespreek ook die Internasionale Boekedag, die gebruik van vrywilligers (fasiliteerders), en die belangrike rol van ouers en gemeenskappe. Suzie het in 2018 die Neville Alexander Prestige-toekenning vir die bevordering van Afrikaans ontvang. Die episode sluit af met 'n oproep vir meer vrywilligers en ondersteuning, asook 'n praktiese wenk van Abram: begin klein, gebruik 'n paar Afrikaanse woorde, en lees 'n boek.

From NYC PR to South African Soul: Lyndon Taylor's Journey of Discovery

South Africa Calls the Black Traveler HomeA 12-Day Journey Through Pretoria and Soweto Reveals Why the Continent Is the Next Frontier for Diaspora TourismThere's a particular kind of travel that transcends sightseeing — the kind where history reaches out from every monument, every meal, every conversation with a stranger. That's exactly what Lyndon Taylor, founder of Lyndon Taylor Associates and a veteran Caribbean travel professional, found waiting for him on the African continent during a 12-day immersion in South Africa this past April. What began as a spontaneous decision sparked by a mentee's family wedding became, by his own account, one of the most significant journeys of his life.From Newark to Johannesburg: The Long Haul ReimaginedTaylor's journey began with a United Airlines non-stop flight from Newark to OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg — a route that clocks in at roughly 14-plus hours in the air. For travelers who've never tackled a transatlantic flight of this distance, the prospect can feel daunting. But Taylor, ever the seasoned road warrior, approaches it with a practiced strategy.For those planning a similar trip from New York or the Caribbean, the key takeaway is this: book early for the best fares, choose night departures when possible, and treat the flight like an intentional transition — not just dead time between worlds.Arriving at the Heart of History: Pretoria's Union Buildings and Freedom ParkTaylor landed in Johannesburg on April 22nd, and after a sobering introduction at the airport — where the statue of Oliver Reginald Tambo, co-founder of the African National Congress alongside Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, watches over every arriving traveler — he took an Uber to Pretoria, the administrative capital where he would base himself for much of the trip.His first major stop was the Union Buildings, Pretoria's iconic seat of government perched at the city's highest point. The sprawling, arc-shaped colonial-era structure commands breathtaking panoramic views over the city, and it is here that the towering nine-foot statue of Nelson Mandela stands as a monument to South Africa's democratic transformation. For Taylor, standing there was a visceral experience.Freedom Park, another landmark Taylor visited, carries an even heavier emotional charge. The memorial lists the names of South Africans who died across multiple conflicts, from World War II through to the apartheid era. Taylor chose to walk it without a guided tour, preferring to absorb the weight of the space at his own pace. He walked through terraced sections tracing themes of earth, trade, and African history before ascending to the Wall of Names — a structure he describes as nearly stadium-like in scale. At the top, an eternal flame burns alongside a still pool of water."I sat, crossed my legs on the grass, and just took it all in... thinking about all those folks who sacrificed so that we can now enjoy the freedoms we do," he says. It was, in his words, "a sombering moment and a moment of reflection."Soweto: History, Soul, and the Sound of People Truly LivingIf Pretoria is South Africa's institutional heartbeat, Soweto is its soul. Taylor made the trip on April 25th, stopping first in Braamfontein — a vibrant Johannesburg neighborhood that doubles as a college town, home to the University of Johannesburg and several other institutions. It was there, over drinks with a group of young South Africans celebrating a birthday, that the spontaneous magic of travel revealed itself.In Soweto, the famous street that was once home to Nelson Mandela, and also to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, offered a deeply personal window into the struggle. The house where Mandela lived with his family is small — almost startlingly so — but filled, as Taylor observed, with evidence of immense love and resilience. A monument in the square also honors Hector Pieterson, one of the young victims of the 1976 Soweto Uprising, and reminds visitors of the cost of the freedom South Africa now celebrates.Later that evening, he returned to Braamfontein, where his new friends introduced him to Zouk, a club in the nearby neighborhood of Melville. He stayed until 5 a.m. — not because there was nothing else to do, but because the last train from Braamfontein back to Pretoria departed at 8:30 p.m. and the next one didn't run until 5:30 a.m. So he danced, celebrated, and immersed himself in the city's nightlife until the Gautrain — the high-speed rail linking Johannesburg to Pretoria — carried him back at dawn.What struck him most was how South Africans engage with music and each other in social spaces. Phones were put away. People danced. There was a joy and a presence to the room that Taylor contrasts, somewhat wistfully, with what he sees in many Caribbean and American venues today."The Africans, they love their music... they were showing and they were going out and enjoying themselves," he says. "We seem to have lost a lot of that."Freedom Day and the March & March Protest: Democracy, Alive and ImperfectApril 27th marked South Africa's Freedom Day — the 32nd anniversary of the country's first democratic, non-racial elections in 1994. Taylor was on the ground to witness the official ceremonies, including a 21-gun salute and presidential participation, alongside broader public celebration.But the trip also offered a more complicated view of South African democracy the following day, when he encountered the March & March movement protesting outside his hotel in Pretoria. Led by a founder named Jacinta, the march addressed concerns about unemployment, immigration, government corruption, and the alleged sale of identity documents and passports. The group was marching toward the Union Buildings to present their grievances directly to the president.Taylor interviewed Jacinta on the spot. The protest was peaceful, orderly, and pointed — a reminder that South Africa's democracy, now three decades old, is still a living, contested work in progress. "I just wanted to show that democracy is alive and well," Taylor reflects. "People were protesting and they could protest freely, without being harmed."Why Caribbean Travelers Should Look to AfricaTaylor is clear-eyed about the barriers. Long-haul international travel is expensive, and the cost of a flight to South Africa is a legitimate consideration. But his advice is straightforward: book the flight first, as far in advance as possible, and sort out accommodation later — Airbnb and guesthouses offer flexibility and value that can be planned around a tighter budget.More importantly, he speaks to something that can't be quantified: the feeling of connection. As a person of African descent visiting the continent for the first time, Taylor describes a pull toward what he calls "the motherland" that influenced how he engaged with every person he met.South Africa sits at a fascinating intersection of history, culture, natural beauty, and emerging modernity. From the vibrant student neighborhoods of Braamfontein to the solemn grandeur of Freedom Park; from the intimate rooms of Mandela's Soweto home to the sweeping views from the Union Buildings — the country offers a depth of experience that few destinations can match.For Caribbean travelers seeking to explore the wider world of their heritage and history, South Africa isn't just worth considering. It may be long overdue.The Final Verdict: Parallel PathsFlying back over the Atlantic, watching the African coastline fade into the clouds, I realized that this journey had fundamentally changed my perspective as a travel writer.South Africa and the Caribbean are bound by an invisible, powerful thread. We are regions shaped by the trauma of oppression, yet defined by our refusal to be broken by it. We express our healing through the same vessels: explosive musical rhythms, revolutionary art, and a profound reverence for our historical architects.For the traveler seeking more than just a passport stamp, South Africa offers a profound, soul-stirring journey. It challenges you, educates you, and ultimately embraces you with a familiarity that feels remarkably like coming home.Support the showTripCast360 --- It's all about travel, lifestyle and entertainment.Web: TripCast360.com.Twit: https://twitter.com/TripCast360FB: https://www.facebook.com/TripCast360Insta: https://www.instagram.com/tripcast360/

"BEE pits black against white": The trailblazer who says empowerment got it wrong — Sam Montši

Defying Barriers is the memoir of a man told by his own government to vanish — and who turned the threat into a business empire spanning two countries. In this interview with Irakli, businessman and author Sam Montši recounts how a 1987 order to "disappear" from military-ruled Lesotho drove him into apartheid South Africa, where he joined the mighty South African Breweries. There, he says, "I was the first Black general manager in the SAB Group at the time. And white people, sadly, were not used to having a Black person overseeing them. So some of them behaved in an unfortunate fashion, and I had to get rid of one of them." Montši explains the operating instinct behind a portfolio that broke barriers from fishing to shipbuilding — "a business needs to move, and move fast" — and reflects candidly on succession, recalling how his son Arif joined him: "Dad, I'm coming to work with you. I'm not coming to work for you. I'm not going to carry your briefcase." He reveres Nelson Mandela as a nation builder — "we were lucky to have him when we had him" — but delivers a stinging critique of Black Economic Empowerment, charging that it "has pitted the Black man against the white person, rather than getting them to work together," and that requiring white firms to take on Black partners is "in a sense, suggesting that Black people cannot create these things themselves." Montši also shares the leadership philosophy that carried him from a Soweto childhood to West African boardrooms: "for you to shine, you must make the people that work directly under you shine." He outlines in detail the journey of crossing boundaries others said could not be crossed — and what it means to now hand the family business to the next generation.

Today we bring together Prof Dr Ger Graus OBE and Cristian Fabbi, Director of the Fondazione Reggio Children, for a deeply human and intellectually rich conversation about the future of early years education.Ger and Cristian share personal stories and the work of their friend and colleague Carla Rinaldi — one of the world's most influential educational thinkers. They explore what it truly means to place children at the heart of learning. From the rubble of post-war Italy to classrooms in Soweto, Nairobi, and Napoli, the Reggio Emilia approach has quietly transformed how educators around the world understand childhood, creativity, community, and the very purpose of school.This is a conversation full of warmth, courage, and genuine hope — a reminder that when we believe in children's potential, extraordinary things happen.Key Takeaways1. Start at the very beginning — literallyThe Reggio Emilia approach insists that quality education must begin from birth, not age 3, 5, or 7. Neuroscience has since confirmed what Carla Rinaldi and Loris Malaguzzi argued decades ago: the 0–3 years are the most critical window for brain development and should be treated as education, not just childcare.2. Children have 100 languages Every child is born with the capacity to express themselves through music, movement, clay, drawing, storytelling, and more. The role of early education is to keep all of these "languages" alive, rather than narrowing children down to reading, writing, and arithmetic alone.3. The environment is the third teacherAlongside the child and the educator, the physical environment plays a crucial pedagogical role. Spaces should be intentionally designed to provoke curiosity, creativity, and collaboration — a principle as relevant to theme parks and museums as it is to nurseries.4. Document processes, not just productsOne of Reggio Emilia's most powerful innovations is pedagogical documentation — capturing the how of children's learning through observation, photographs, and reflection. This shifts the focus from testing what children remember to understanding how they think, discover, and grow.5. Children are citizens from birthCarla Rinaldi's conviction was clear: children are not future citizens — they are citizens now, with rights and responsibilities from the moment they are born.6. Quality education is an antidote to social harmThe Fondazione Reggio Children works in communities facing criminality, poverty, and conflict — from Naples to Palermo to Soweto.7. We must shift from "I" to "We"A powerful reflection from Cristian: modern education has rightly championed individual development, but we've lost something vital at the community level. The next step is helping children develop their life projects together with others — rebuilding the communal bonds that hold society together.8. Invest in foundations, not just outcomesGer offers a striking metaphor: we build houses by investing heavily in their foundations. Yet in education, the earliest years — the true foundation — receive the least funding and attention.9. Research should be participatory and generousThe Fondazione's PhD programme is deliberately multidisciplinary — bringing together architects, biologists, poets, and musicians — with the goal of generating processes other educators can actually use, not just papers that gather dust on library shelves.10. The Reggio Emilia approach is a philosophy, not a formulaIt cannot simply be copied. A school inspired by Reggio Emilia in Indonesia will look entirely different from one in Nairobi — and that's by design. The approach adapts to local context, culture, and community, making it genuinely universal without being prescriptive.Chapters:00:06 - Exploring New Themes in Education01:09 - Introduction to the Reggio Emilia Approach16:18 - The Legacy of Carla: A Reflection on Education and Humanity19:02 - Introduction to the Reggio Emilia Approach30:03 - The Importance of Community in Education34:58 - The Importance of Documentation in Education44:17 - Exploring the Role of Play in Education55:28 - Investing in Quality Education57:41 - Community Perspectives on Education and Citizenshiphttps://www.frchildren.org/enhttps://www.reggiochildren.it/reggio-emilia-approach/https://www.gergraus.comGet the book – Through a Different Lens: Lessons from a Life in Education

La chorégraphe originaire du township de Soweto est décédée fin 2024, à l'âge de 39 ans, créant un grand vide dans le monde de la danse. Elle laisse derrière elle plusieurs relectures et réinventions de classiques européens, comme le Lac des cygnes ou Roméo et Juliette. Des danseurs continuent de préserver ses œuvres et de les partager. À Johannesburg, ce week-end du 16 mai, les spectateurs ont pu assister à sa version d'Hamlet de Shakespeare. De notre correspondante à Johannesburg,  Sur la scène du Market Theatre, les chorégraphies interprétées par la troupe portent bien l'empreinte de Dada Masilo. Les mouvements sont vifs, saccadés, explosifs ; l'histoire est racontée du point de vue féminin et les personnages défient les normes de genre. « Il est clair qu'elle nous a laissé un bel héritage. Tout le monde ressort de la salle impressionné et, même si elle nous a quittés beaucoup trop tôt, elle a incontestablement laissé une empreinte très forte », affirme Lesedi en sortant du spectacle, émue. Pour les artistes qui faisaient partie de la troupe de Dada Masilo, comme Thuso Lobeko, il aura fallu un long temps de deuil avant de parvenir à danser, à nouveau, l'un de ses spectacles : « Ça nous a pris une année entière. En 2025, on n'a rien pu faire autour du travail de Dada. On a tout arrêté et c'est seulement maintenant qu'on a décidé qu'on était prêts pour tenter de poursuivre ce qu'elle a commencé, confie-t-il. Au tout début, lors de la première semaine de répétitions, j'étais bouleversé, car j'avais l'impression qu'elle était là. Il y avait plein de petites choses qui n'arrêtaient pas de me faire penser à elle. J'espère qu'elle aurait aimé ce qu'on fait, et je sais qu'elle serait fière que l'on préserve son œuvre en continuant son travail. » À voir aussiLa chorégraphe sud-africaine Dada Masilo en un mot, un geste et un silence « Elle a transformé le monde de la danse » Ceux qui ont eu la chance de danser à ses côtés, comme Lehlohonolo Madise – choisie pour jouer Ophélie –, ont dû s'appliquer à transmettre ce style si particulier aux nouveaux venus de la troupe : « C'est un style qui mélange un peu de danse classique, avec des mouvements africains, explique-t-elle. Elle a transformé le monde de la danse, et ce qu'elle faisait était très différent de tous les autres chorégraphes du pays. » Dans Hamlet, comme dans plusieurs créations de l'artiste, l'œuvre européenne se retrouve déconstruite puis réinventée à travers un regard sud-africain. Llewellyn Mnguni, interprète de Gertrude et assistant-chorégraphe, a travaillé pendant douze ans aux côtés de Dada Masilo. « C'est comme si on allait rouvrir des archives et creuser dans nos propres mémoires, pour nous souvenir de la façon dont elle faisait ce travail, pourquoi elle créait ces mouvements et comment elle tissait des histoires ensemble, souligne-t-iel. Elle a créé une œuvre très importante et cela m'inquiétait de savoir si cela allait être préservé et si la prochaine génération pourrait en faire l'expérience. » Ce spectacle part désormais en tournée, cette semaine, en Angleterre, puis en Allemagne, avec la volonté de perpétuer l'héritage artistique de la chorégraphe regrettée.

Bramson sits down with Dr. Mark Rittenberg — executive coach, leadership whisperer, former actor, Fulbright Scholar, South African bridge-builder, and possibly the only man alive who can quote Shakespeare while fixing your corporate culture.From Harvard to Soweto to Silicon Valley, Mark has spent decades teaching leaders how to communicate like actual humans instead of PowerPoint templates with pulse rates. We talk about his journey from the theater to the boardroom, the profound influence of Angeles Arrien, and why empathy may be the most radical leadership skill left in modern civilization.Somewhere between authentic leadership, multicultural transformation, executive coaching, and stories that sound too cinematic to be real, we also explore: • Why the best leaders know how to listen — and actually know their employees• How acting and presentation skills can rescue broken organizations• The origin story behind his Executive Coaching program at University of California, BerkeleyCredits:River is High, Ticketless TravelerCarl Reisman, guitar, singer, and songwriterJenny Goodwine, vocalsJames Singleton, bassJohnny Vidocovich, drumsDave Easley, steel guitarProduced by Morgan Orion Reismanfor more information, carlreisman@gmail.comCopyright 2025WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

Ce monde issu de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, dont la boussole était le droit international, qui est en train de disparaître, piétiné par des autocrates en mal d'empire ou à l'égo surdimensionné. Quelles leçons tirer du passé pour éviter le pire ? Serons-nous capables de construire demain un nouveau monde, meilleur et plus équitable ? Ces deux questions sont au cœur du dernier livre de Pierre Haski, La fin d'un monde : Comprendre notre époque.   Invité : Pierre Haski, journaliste, chroniqueur Géopolitique à France Inter et au Nouvel Obs, président du conseil d'administration de Reporters sans frontières, auteur de La fin d'un monde : Comprendre notre époque aux éditions Stock.

South Africa is one of the places where the 21st century is being made in real time. Against the backdrop of war in the Middle East, we ask what rising energy prices mean for countries already struggling with poverty, unemployment and fragile infrastructure. If you want to see the decline of American influence and the rise of Chinese power, Southern Africa is where it's happening. Along the way, we get a street-level feel for modern South Africa, from the fading grandeur of central Joburg to the sprawling reality of Soweto, where apartheid's legacy still shapes daily life, but where democracy has also held in ways many once thought impossible. We talk about inequality, migration, religion, corruption, black economic empowerment, and the strange new elite of “slay queens,” all as windows into how power and money now move through South African society. With exploding population growth, vast mineral wealth, and huge renewable energy potential, the continent is becoming central to the global economy. China understands that. The West, increasingly, does not. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Die Vryheidsfront Plus sê hy is bekommerd oor die waterkrisis in die Stad Johannesburg en die metro se voortslepende versuim om agterstallige munisipale skuld in te vorder. Onbetaalde munisipale rekeninge in Johannesburg beloop tans 71-miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand. ʼn Aansienlike deel hiervan is in gebiede soos Soweto, waar die maandelikse invorderingskoers tussen 40- en 50-persent wissel. Franco de Lange van die VF Plus sê daarenteen is die maandelikse invorderingskoers in die noordelike en westelike woonbuurte altyd bo 90-persent:

Last summer 2025 I made my first ever trip to South Africa, specifically Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. I went there to make connections, interview local jazz artists, elders and community leaders.  One of the very talented artists I connected with was jazz drummer, composer and scholar Tumi Mogorosi. We took a deep dive into his journey as an artist and activist. He spoke about what inspired him to play the drums and to study the rich history of this music we call jazz. He expressed the importance of knowing his history as a South African and all that it entails, including the horrors of apartheid, the 1976 Soweto uprising and the injustices that continue to exist today. We dove into his projects as a leader which include the 2014 “Project Elo”, “Sanctum Santorium” with his partner and vocalist Gabi Motuba, and his most recent album Group Theory: Black Music. We touched on his collaborations with Shabaka Hutchings' Shabaka and The Ancestors and lastly as a historian, he expressed his deep appreciation for Frantz Fanon and why his work is so relevant, even today.
