What if feeling good wasn't something you had to earn?In this episode of Daughters of the Moon Podcast, we're exploring the fascinating world of healthy hedonism with Dr. Erica Oberg and the science behind pleasure, joy, vitality, and our ability to thrive.Dr. Erica shares why a joyful being can create an expansive feeling, how giving ourselves permission to feel good can influence our wellbeing, and why restriction isn't always the answer when it comes to creating a healthier life.We explore how making small moves and simple shifts can pivot us toward better health and help move us out of survival mode and into thriving mode.We also dive into what happens when we begin to attune more deeply to pleasure and joy. Healthy hedonism is about moving away from pain and toward pleasure, and there is fascinating science behind the way feeling good can affect our bodies and brains, including the roles of oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin.And there's another beautiful piece to consider: our joy and vitality can lift the people around us.Could allowing more pleasure, joy, and vitality into your life actually support your health?Join Barb and Kimmi for this thought-provoking conversation about feeling good, making small changes, embracing pleasure, and discovering that thriving may begin with giving ourselves permission to experience more joy.

What happens when the soul begins to remember?In Episode 374 of Daughters of the Moon Podcast, we welcome Ellen M. Laura, mystic, spiritual mentor, and grief coach, for a fascinating conversation about a major collective shift that Ellen says is coming on January 20, 2027, through the lens of Human Design.We explore what this shift could mean for the collective, including the idea of a new wave of creation and a deeper remembering within the soul.Ellen invites us to consider a powerful change in the questions we ask ourselves. Instead of only asking:“Who am I?”We begin asking:“Where am I going, and who is going with me?”We talk about moving beyond the ways humans have traditionally been asked to navigate life, grief, identity, and change, and into a new way of understanding ourselves and our path forward.Our conversation also touches on grief, Emotion Code, Astrocartography, Human Design, soul memory, and the collective evolution unfolding around us.What if the next chapter isn't about figuring out who you used to be?What if it's about remembering who you are becoming?Join us for this thought-provoking conversation with Ellen M. Laura and explore what may be waiting on the other side of the shift.Connect with Ellen M.

Dr Albert Palazzo from UNSW-Canberra explains why the AUKUS deal that Australia has with the US is not in Australia's interests. In other words,'the US was smart to do it and we were dumb to do it'.AUKUS allows US military bases on our soil to contain China and underpin US dominance. This makes Australia a military target and puts us in danger. Meanwhile Australia loses its autonomy and sovreignty, with the country's enmeshment and subservience to US military strategy and operations. In addition, AUKUS is likely to bring nuclear devices to our shores, in violation of the Treaty of Rarotonga which we have signed.We receive nothing of consequence in return, except non-binding promises of submarines that would not be effective anyway in defending against military attacks that AUKUS has attracted.Albert Palazzo says we need to change our culture of looking to the US to defend us. The technology we need already exists, and we also need to invest more in diplomacy and peace.Take actionMake a submission to the AUKUS Public Inquiry:https://aukuspublicinquiry.com/#make-a-submission Read moreAlbert Palazzo 2025, The big fix: Rebuilding Australia's national security, Melbourne University Press Albert Palazzo 2026, 'How AUKUS could destroy Australia', The Saturday Paper, No.615, 29 August 2026.
On March 13, 1930, Adolf Hitler was sitting in the passenger seat of his chauffeur-driven car when a trailer truck sped through an intersection and struck the vehicle, pushing it across the road and stopping just short of crushing it. Everyone survived. Three years later, Hitler became chancellor of Germany. Would tens of millions of people still have died if the truck had killed him? To many people, the answer is obviously yes, because Hitler was uniquely evil. To many others, the answer is obviously no, because the Treaty of Versailles and hyperinflation had already created the conditions for catastrophe. Jared Diamond spent decades trying to figure out who is right, and his answer is: it depends on the circumstances, and we can actually test it. Today's guest is Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel and now Profits, Prophets, Coaches, and Kings: (When) Do Leaders Matter? We discuss how the inbreeding of European royal families created a natural experiment proving that monarchs' intelligence directly affected national outcomes, why Botswana's founding president is the clearest modern example of an irreplaceable leader because only he could have given away his own tribe's diamond rights without starting a civil war, and why Genghis Khan's conquests depended on rainfall patterns revealed by tree rings. We also see that Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs all made a difference but none of them passes what he calls the Hamlet test. Diamond's framework applies across politics, business, sports, and religion, and his conclusion is that leaders matter most when three conditions align: high discretion, genuine choices between balanced alternatives, and no one else who could have made the same decisions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if mushrooms have something to teach us about being human?In Episode 373 of Daughters of the Moon Podcast, we welcome Madison Murphy Barney, author of the fascinating new book Our Ancestors Want Us to Be Mushrooms.This may be a book about mushrooms, but as Madison shares, it is ultimately a book about us.We explore what it means to recognize that we are part of a larger ecosystem and what mushrooms can teach us when we allow them to become our teachers.We talk about mushrooms as witnesses and advocates, much like a doula holds space for someone moving through a profound transition. Because the nature of life is change. We aren't meant to avoid it. We are meant to be witnessed as we move forward and through it.Madison shares the eight characteristics that form a kind of blueprint our ancestors have given us, inviting us to look at ourselves, our relationships, and our place within the living world in a whole new way.And then there is mystery.The possibility that not everything needs to be explained. The room we leave for magic. The wonder that becomes available when we remember that the natural world has been here, teaching us, all along.
In 1597, the first published edition of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet rolled off the printing press. Only a year later, the Spanish colony of Santa Fe was established. While you might not immediately think Shakespeare had much to do with the Latinx experience, Shakespeare's career and the Spanish conquest of the Americas fit into a similar timeline. The Bard in the Borderlands, a three-volume anthology of plays by Chicanx and Indigenous playwrights, explores the possibilities of retelling Shakespeare through the culture, language, and traditions of “la frontera,” or “the borderlands.” Simply defined by co-editor Katherine Gillen as “land that was once Mexico, but… became part of the United States” after the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, there is very little “simple” about the history of this region. Its complex blend of identities and experiences are expressed in fantastic transformations of Shakespeare's work, from a re-imagining of The Tempest set in a Houston school gymnasium to Macbeth's Weird Sisters practicing brujería. In this episode, editors Kathryn Vomero Santos and Katherine Gillen and contributing playwright Andrew Siañez-De La O discuss how these works speak to Mexican American and Indigenous traditions—and what it means to create “a stranger Shakespeare.” From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.

Photo: Alaska Native Medical Center in May 2026. (Courtesy Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium) The Indian Health Service officially handed ownership of the state’s biggest tribal hospital, the Alaska Native Medical Center, to the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, as Alaska Public Media’s Rachel Cassandra reports. The transfer happened on August 24, according to the consortium. ANTHC CEO Natasha Singh, a Stevens Village tribal citizen from Fairbanks, says the transfer is the result of decades of advocacy. “This marks a historic achievement. It advances tribal self-determination in healthcare, and it’s achieved through the direct advocacy by Alaska tribal leaders.” Singh says, beyond practical implications, the symbolism of ownership is powerful. She says it is rare that tribes truly have self-governance over something so critical to their lives. “You don’t see it in management of our traditional territories or our fish resources. You don’t see it in education and public safety, but you see it in healthcare. Having this ability to control our future is allowing us to address the historical impacts of colonialism.” Singh says the hospital endured decades of underinvestment from the federal government and the transfer will allow the hospital to pursue funding only available to tribally owned facilities. Wilson Justin is a shareholder of the Ahtna Regional Corporation and has advocated for the rights of Indigenous people in the health care system since the 1990s. He says the ownership transfer is momentous. “It’s been a long wait, and I really appreciate the fact that it’s finally occurring. We’ve been waiting for it for half a generation, basically.” He says he hopes that the transfer allows the hospital to strengthen healthcare for Indigenous Alaskans across the state, especially for smaller tribes. The Little Colorado River, a tributary of the Colorado River, flows during the springtime through the Navajo Nation near Cameron, Arizona. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) The Navajo Nation Council has taken a major step toward protecting one of its most precious water resources. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has more on the recent measure that formally recognizes the Confluence – where the Colorado and Little Colorado rivers meet – as a sacred site under tribal law. Doing so formally documents what Navajos already know – the spiritual and natural significance of where these two life-giving rivers converge. This information may be used to potentially deter future commercial development by industries like hydropower or dams. Erik Stansfield testified on behalf of the tribe's Historic Preservation Office. “When that comes forward, we can show what impairment of those resources look like.” He likens the Confluence to its council chambers, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. “Like the murals in this room, changing that would be an impairment to the sort of historical and cultural importance of this place. It’s very much the same with the plants and animals, water quality and offerings that have been made at that place. We detail that out, and that helps us kind of defend this area.” Ratified Indian Treaty 70. And on this day in 1815, leaders from eight Native Nations signed the Treaty of Spring Wells with the United States near Detroit. The agreement formally restored peace following the War of 1812 and returned certain rights and possessions Native Nations held before the war. The treaty involved the Wyandot, Delaware, Seneca, Shawnee, Miami, Chippewa, Ottawa, and Potawatomi Nations. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

As America seeks an agreement with Iran amid the current war, Hank Hanegraaff asks a crucial question: How should we understand the thinking of Iran's Islamic leadership?In this episode of Hank Unplugged, Hank looks back to the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, Muhammad's ten-year truce with the Meccans in A.D. 628, and examines its enduring significance in Islamic history and political thought. From Muhammad's eventual conquest of Mecca to Yasser Arafat's invocation of Hudaybiyyah during the Oslo peace process, Hank argues that the past provides an important lens through which to assess negotiations with Iran today. Hank also considers the historic expansion of Islam through conquest and migration, the transformation of formerly Christian centers such as Constantinople, and the profound differences between the examples set by Muhammad and Jesus Christ. Jesus commanded His followers to love their enemies, pray for those who persecute them, and be peacemakers. Ultimately, He gave His life so that others might live. As Hank often says, “Contrast is the conduit to clarity.” And in this episode, he contends that the contrast between Christ and Muhammad—and between Christianity and Islam—could hardly be more consequential. Topics include Iran, the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, Muhammad, jihad, Yasser Arafat and the Oslo Accords, Islam in Europe, Constantinople and Hagia Sophia, Christianity and Islam, and the teachings of Jesus Christ. For more information on Islam please see Hank's book MUSLIM: What You Need to Know About the World's Fastest Growing Religion. https://www.equip.org/product/cri-resource-muslim-what-you-need-to-know-about-the-worlds-fastest-growing-religion-wa0426/Listen to Hank's podcast and follow Hank off the grid where he is joined by some of the brightest minds discussing topics you care about.

Uranus, Neptune & Pluto: The Outer Planets & Your Spiritual Evolution | Julia SophiaWhat if the planets in our birth charts are not simply describing who we are, but offering a map for our spiritual evolution?In Episode 371 of Daughters of the Moon, we welcome Julia Sophia for a fascinating conversation about the powerful outer planets: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, and the ways their energies can help us understand freedom, creativity, transformation and our own evolutionary journey.Julia is the co-author of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto: The Impact of the Astrological Outer Planets, and together we explore the deeper symbolism and spiritual significance of these three planetary forces.✨ Uranus invites freedom and encourages us to unlearn what restricts us.✨ Neptune opens the door to creativity, imagination and the stories or narratives we create about our lives.✨ Pluto is the evolutionary force, bringing change, transformation, endings and new beginnings.We also explore the principle of threeness, moving beyond the familiar tension of duality and discovering how three energies can create greater harmony.Julia shares insights into Sabian Symbols, planetary transits, the birth chart, lunar nodes and midpoint calculations, including the Trinity Point approach explored in her book.This conversation invites us to look at astrology in a different way. Not simply as a system for predicting what might happen, but as a tool for greater awareness and a deeper understanding of ourselves.What are the outer planets asking you to release?Where are you being invited to become freer?What stories are ready to be rewritten?And what transformation might be waiting on the other side?

In December 1776, a Delaware Chief named White Eyes stood before the Second Continental Congress. He had not come to declare himself a revolutionary, nor had he come to pledge his loyalty to King George III. White Eyes came to test a promise.What does the American Revolution look like to people for whom independence was never a question? For the Delaware, also known as the Lenape, the War for Independence raised older and harder questions:Whose word could be trusted? What choices can we make about whether to fight, stay neutral, or flee that might let our community remain itself on the land we know?Jeremy Johnson, Cultural Education Director for the Delaware Tribe of Indians, traces Lenape and Delaware history from long before European contact through the American Revolution. He also introduces us to the September 1778 Treaty of Fort Pitt, the first treaty the United States made with a Native Nation and which promised a 14th Native state.Delaware Tribe of Indians' WebsiteShow Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/450EPISODE OUTLINE 00:00:00 Introduction00:02:35 The Lenape Experience of the American Revolution00:07:56 Lenape History and Indigenous Origin Stories00:10:52 Diplomacy in Lenape Traditions00:15:32 Evolution of Lenape Diplomacy Through European Contact00:20:00 The Walking Purchase of 173700:24:55 Lenape Experiences of the Seven Years' War00:32:13 Lenape Participation in Pontiac's Rebellion00:37:17 The Delaware and the American Revolution00:46:32 Negotiating the Treaty of Fort Pitt00:50:16 The Hope for Delaware Sovereignty00:52:53 The Delaware People & America's 250th01:00:02 Time Warp01:02:41 ResourcesRECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES
The Treaty of Paris handed the United States a wilderness empire running to the Mississippi and the Great Lakes — and the bankrupt Confederation needed to sell it, fast, because western land was very nearly the only asset it had. There was one problem: the nations who lived there had never been conquered, had signed nothing, and were not leaving. This is the story of how the United States tried to take the Ohio country on the cheap — the dictated treaties that told the Shawnee and the Delaware they were a defeated people, the great confederacy that rose to reject them and offered a negotiated peace instead, and a Congress so broke and so empty it could neither accept that peace nor fight the war that followed. General Washington had warned in 1783 that buying the land would cost less than taking it. Nobody could afford to listen. It is the story of a committee of Congress formally concluding that the government could not protect its own citizens — and of Governor Patrick Henry's warning that a frontier left undefended would drive the whole West into separation from the union.

At around 11:30 am local time on Monday in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, President Xi Jinping and Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov put their signatures to a treaty on permanent good-neighborliness, friendship and cooperation, after which they exchanged copies of the treaty, shook hands and posed for photographs.The two presidents also signed a joint declaration on the high-quality development of the China-Kyrgyzstan comprehensive strategic partnership for a new era, and witnessed the exchange of bilateral cooperation documents covering investment, transportation, customs and sister-city relations.During Xi's visit, which began on Sunday, the two sides signed more than 20 additional cooperation documents in areas including science and technology, education, culture, people-to-people exchanges and the media.While holding bilateral talks with Japarov, Xi said that high-level political mutual trust and firm mutual support are important guarantees for the steady and long-term development of China-Kyrgyzstan relations. China firmly supports Kyrgyzstan in safeguarding its national sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity, and supports the country in pursuing a development path suited to its national conditions, Xi said.He added that China stands ready to continue firmly supporting Kyrgyzstan on issues concerning each other's core interests.Japarov said he was honored to welcome Xi to Kyrgyzstan on the 35th anniversary of the country's independence, which fell on Monday. The visit further demonstrated the profound friendship and high level of political mutual trust between the two countries and marked an important milestone in bilateral relations, he said.Xi said the signing of the treaty on permanent good-neighborliness, friendship and cooperation will provide an important legal foundation for friendship between the two countries from generation to generation and for their continued mutual support.China is advancing the building of a strong country and national rejuvenation on all fronts through Chinese modernization, while Kyrgyzstan is making every effort to implement its National Development Program through 2030, Xi said.China is ready to work with Kyrgyzstan to better align their development strategies, deepen exchanges of experience in governance and deliver more tangible outcomes through practical cooperation, he said, calling for taking profound and concrete measures in building a China-Kyrgyzstan community with a shared future.Xi called for the two sides to deepen practical cooperation by implementing their intergovernmental economic and trade cooperation plan, diversifying traded goods and fostering new growth drivers such as digital trade and cross-border e-commerce.He called for the high-quality construction of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway, describing it as a "major transportation artery" carrying the development aspirations of people across the region.The two sides should also modernize border crossings and strengthen "soft connectivity" in institutions, standards and rules, he said.Xi urged more landmark projects in renewable energy and resource recycling, as well as efforts to implement cooperation documents on green minerals and expand collaboration across entire industrial chains.He also called for facilitating personnel exchanges and expanding cooperation among young people, as well as media, tourism, sports, healthcare and subnational exchanges, to further consolidate public support for China-Kyrgyzstan friendship.The two sides should expand law enforcement and security cooperation, jointly combat the "three forces" of terrorism, separatism and extremism, as well as drug trafficking and transnational crime, and work together to safeguard regional peace and stability, Xi said.China supports Kyrgyzstan in playing a greater role in international and regional affairs and is willing to strengthen coordination with the country within the United Nations framework, he said.Xi called on the two countries to jointly implement the four global initiatives, oppose hegemonism and power politics, uphold true multilateralism, safeguard international fairness and justice, and promote a more just and equitable global governance system.As founding members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, China and Kyrgyzstan should advance the implementation of the outcomes of last year's Tianjin summit, promote common development in the region and take the SCO's development to a new level, said Xi, who is also in Bishkek for this year's SCO summit.Japarov said the signing of the treaty on permanent good-neighborliness, friendship and cooperation will open up broader prospects for bilateral relations."The People's Republic of China is an important priority in Kyrgyzstan's foreign policy, and our main trade and investment partner. China is our good neighbor, close friend and time-tested, reliable partner," Japarov told Xi.Japarov also said that Kyrgyzstan is willing to expand cooperation with China in trade and investment, connectivity, scientific and technological innovation, energy, minerals and the green economy, while strengthening exchanges in education, healthcare, culture and youth affairs.Kyrgyzstan is ready to work with China to combat the "three forces" and safeguard regional security, he said.Japarov also expressed his country's willingness to strengthen coordination with China through multilateral platforms, including the UN, the SCO, the China-Central Asia mechanism and the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization.During the talks, Japarov, on behalf of the Kyrgyz government and people, extended his deep sympathies over the mudslide disaster in Gyirong county of China's Xizang autonomous region.Xi thanked him and said the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government are making every effort to search for missing Chinese and foreign nationals, relocate affected residents, treat the injured and guard against secondary disasters. China has also sent rescuers to Nepal and provided emergency assistance, he said.Earlier on Monday morning, Xi and his wife, Peng Liyuan, arrived by car at Yntymak Ordo, the Kyrgyz presidential administration building, under the escort of a Kyrgyz cavalry guard. They were warmly received by Japarov and his wife, Aigul Japarova.permanent good-neighborliness /ˈpɜːmənənt ˌɡʊd ˈneɪbəlɪnəs/ n.永久睦邻关系national rejuvenation /ˈnæʃənəl rɪˌdʒuːvəˈneɪʃən/ n.民族复兴transportation artery /ˌtrænspɔːˈteɪʃən ˈɑːtəri/ n.交通大动脉multilateralism /ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/ n.多边主义hegemonism /hɪˈɡemənɪzəm/ n.霸权主义equitable /ˈekwɪtəbəl/ adj.公平合理的；公正的

(Courtesy Kenai Silver Salmon Derby) Kenai, Alaska's annual Silver Salmon Derby will not return this year in response to poor silver salmon runs in the Kenai River. The Kenai Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center, which hosts the competition each year, announced the decision Thursday, as Ashlyn O’Hara reports. This year's derby was scheduled to happen the second week of September. The annual event is billed as the world's most responsible fishing tournament. That is because it awards prizes based on a fish weight that is closest to a random number instead of awarding the biggest fish caught, which organizers say can incentivize harmful catch-and-release strategies. In the chamber's announcement, executive director Samantha Springer said the decision to cancel the derby was difficult, but aligns with the competition's commitment to responsible fishing. The announcement came the same day the Alaska Department of Fish and Game extended limits on the Kenai River silver salmon sport fishery. Traditionally, the fishery bag limit increases from two large fish to three large fish on September 1. The department is keeping the limit to two fish through the end of November. Like the derby, the department says its decision is due to a below-average silver run. The state says that indicates weak returns to Cook Inlet. Patrick Fowler is a fisheries management coordinator for the state. He says the department does not count the Kenai River's coho run the same way it counts other salmon species, like king and sockeye. Instead, Fowler says they use several data points to determine when a run may be lower than usual. Fowler says the combination of data points suggest this year's silver salmon run is stronger than in 2024, but weaker than last year. In the press release, the chamber says it will consider hosting the 2027 derby earlier in the year. Thursday's announcement comes on the heels of a lackluster sockeye season in the Kenai River, and as the river's king fishery remains closed outright due to poor runs. On August 10, the last day the state counted fish for Kenai River late-run sockeye, a little over a million fish had been counted. That is lower than the cumulative counts for each of the last four years, and about a quarter of how many were counted during last year's record season. Courtesy NCAI The National Congress of American Indians is bringing Tribal leaders together to identify priorities for an upcoming federal consultation on violence against women. NCAI's Violence Against Women Task Force will host two pre-consultation meetings for Tribal leaders and organizations. The meetings will help participants develop talking points and strategies ahead of the U.S. Department of Justice's annual government-to-government consultation with Tribal Nations. That consultation is led by the Office on Violence Against Women and provides Tribal leaders an opportunity to raise concerns and priorities directly with federal officials. NCAI will hold one of its preparatory meetings virtually and another in person at the Tulalip Resort in Washington state. The organization says both will focus on issues Tribal leaders want addressed during the federal consultation.

The agreement called for the Chickasaw Nation to give up its remaining homelands east of the Mississippi River in exchange for suitable territory west of Arkansas, but the agreement allowed Chickasaw representatives to inspect the proposed western lands before relocation. They ultimately determined the land was unsuitable. The treaty was never ratified and became void, but negotiations over Chickasaw lands continued as the United States pursued its policy of removing Native nations from the Southeast.

In today's episode, Claire meets with Chris Hoklotubbe and Danny Zacharias to discuss their book, Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, and North American Indigenous lenses for interpreting the Bible. In Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, Indigenous scholars Chris Hoklotubbe and Danny Zacharias explore what it means to read the Bible from the lens of Indigenous peoples in North America. Exploring the intersection of Scripture, Cultural Traditions, Hearts and Minds, and Creation, they affirm Creator's presence with Indigenous people since the beginning. By recovering these rich histories, this book offers a fresh reading of Scripture that celebrates the assets, blessings, and insights of Indigenous interpretation. Indigenous culture has often been dismissed or deemed problematic within Western Christian circles, and historical practices have often communicated that Indigenous worldviews have little to offer the church or its understanding of Scripture. Hoklotubbe and Zacharias challenge this perspective, reasserting the dignity of these cultures that were condemned through colonial practices and showing how Indigenous interpretations bring invaluable insights to all of God's people. Join the dance of North American Indigenousinterpretations of Christian ScriptureDanny Zacharias grew up in Winnipeg (Treaty 1 territory),with his maternal ancestors (Cree/Anishinaabe) inhabiting the areas of Treaty 1 and Treaty 5 territory for many generations. After completing his Bachelor of Arts at Providence College, he and his wife Maria moved to Mi'kma'ki (Nova Scotia) to complete his Master of Divinity and Master of Arts (Theology) at Acadia Divinity College. While working part-time at ADC, Danny completed his PhD in New Testament studies through Highland Theological College (University of Aberdeen). During his time serving at ADC, Danny also completed the processof ordination with the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada and serves regularly in his local church. Danny also carries administrative responsibilities as Associate Dean and Director of the Hayward Lectures. In addition to his role at ADC, Danny is a faculty member of NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community. More than any of these achievements, Danny is most proud to call Maria his wife, Lex, Jack, and Hudson his sons, and Ella-Rose his daughter.Christopher Hoklotubbe (ThD, Harvard) is a proud member ofthe Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. He is the director of graduate studies of NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community, the first accredited Indigenous designed, developed, delivered, and governed theological institute. He is also assistant professor of classics at Cornell College (Mount Vernon, Iowa). He is the author of Civilized Piety: The Rhetoric of Pietas in the Pastoral Epistles and the Roman Empire, which was awarded the Manfred Lautenschläger Award for Theological Promise. He and his wife, Stephanie, have two daughters and live near Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Welcome to another episode of the Daughters of the Moon Podcast! In this episode, Kim and Barb welcome Shavonne V. Readus for a fascinating conversation about trusting yourself, finding authenticity, breaking old patterns, and coming home to who you truly are.Shavonne has always been drawn to mysteries, intuition, tarot, divination, and the things in life that can't always be easily explained. Her curiosity began early. She even jokes about being the eighth grader who brought a Ouija board to Field Day at her Catholic middle school! From there, her fascination with the mystical continued to grow.We talk about what happens when we continue to repeat the same patterns in our lives. If we keep doing what we've always done, how can we expect to create something different?We explore the importance of asking ourselves:What were you interested in before you were told what you should be interested in?Sometimes the things that fascinated us as children can lead us back to important pieces of ourselves that we left behind.Shavonne shares her perspective on:

Political pressure is mounting on Prime Minister Mark Carney as sweeping U.S. tariffs take hold on billions of dollars worth of Canadian goods. Trade talks broke down on Friday, and now Ottawa must weigh how best to cushion the economic blow - and how to retaliate strategically against Washington. We'll have full coverage of the renewed Canada/U.S. trade tensions - with reaction from U.S. officials, business leaders, and Canadians across the country.Also: Today marks 150 years of Treaty 6. Its an agreement signed between the British Crown and more than 50 First Nations. It gave those First Nations rights to health, education, and use of the land in portions of what is now Saskatchewan and Alberta. But there is growing concern that the threat of Alberta separation -- could put the Treaty at risk. And: Twice a year, millions of monarch butterflies make the long voyage between Canada, the U-S and Mexico. Habitat loss has led to fewer and fewer monarchs taking part in that semi-yearly migration.

With America engaged in a prolonged war with Iran, public support declining, and questions mounting about the objectives and costs of continued military action, an ancient question has become urgently relevant again: When is war justified? In this episode of Mining the Media, David and G.K. move beyond partisan arguments over President Trump and examine war through the biblical and historic Christian understanding of Just War Theory. Drawing from D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones' Why Does God Allow War?, Scripture, and principles developed through centuries of Christian thought, they consider seven essential standards: just cause, legitimate authority, right intention, last resort, proportionality, discrimination between combatants and civilians, and a reasonable prospect of success. The discussion takes an especially compelling turn when G.K. contrasts the punitive aftermath of World War I and the Treaty of Versailles with America's approach following World War II—when defeated enemies were rebuilt rather than simply punished, eventually becoming prosperous nations and valuable American allies. Can a war begin justly but cease to be prosecuted justly? Does supporting our country or president relieve Christians of the responsibility to continually evaluate a war morally? The ultimate purpose of a just war cannot be perpetual destruction of an enemy. It must be the establishment of a just and lasting peace. And sometimes the greatest victory is turning yesterday's enemy into tomorrow's friend.

More than half a million Indigenous people were enslaved within the present-day borders of the United States. Historian Linford Fisher spent fifteen years in archives across North America, the Caribbean, and Britain to investigate this forgotten history. What he found was not a second story running alongside African slavery. It was something different in kind. Europeans and early Americans enslaved people who lived on land they intended to possess. This practice made slavery a tool of dispossession.The American Revolution is where this process accelerated. Lin and Lorén Spears, a Narragansett tribal citizen and the executive director of the Tomaquag Museum, trace how the Revolution opened space for captive raiding on the western frontier, how Native nations weighed which side to take during the war, and how their Stolen Relations digital project is recovering the names of the Natives early Americans enslaved.Lin's Website | Book |Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/449 EPISODE OUTLINE00:00:00 Introduction00:01:23 The Declaration's Overlooked Grievance Against Indigenous People00:02:29 The Other Revolutionary War00:03:20 Investigating the Hidden History of Indigenous Enslavement00:07:07 Uncovering the Scale of Indigenous Enslavement00:13:43 Building Stolen Relations Through Archival and Tribal Collaboration00:20:51 Decolonizing Archival Records00:30:40 Connection Between Indigenous Enslavement & Land Dispossession00:33:53 How Native Nations Navigated the American Revolution00:37:16 From Colonial Experimentation to Revolutionary Expansion00:41:15 How the American Revolution Expanded Indigenous Slavery00:45:20 How Indigenous Nations Weighed Neutrality, Alliance, & Survival00:52:51 The Declaration of Independence's Impact on Indigenous Communities01:01:10 The Treaty of Paris, 1783 and the Continuation of Indigenous Dispossession01:03:51 The Uncertain End of Indigenous Enslavement01:11:59 Commemorating the American Revolution Through Indigenous History01:24:36 Revolution to Freedom Through Indigenous SovereigntyRECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES
Londinium Chronicles — Multi-Part, Part Two: Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) turn to the ragged ends of wars and the long-term consequences of current strategic decisions. Germanicus argues that by handcrafting the war in Ukraine and blockading Russia, the United States has inadvertently fostered a united Eurasia, a powerful condominium of Moscow, Beijing, Tehran, and Pyongyang that threatens to eclipse Western power. He compares modern strategic failures to historical precedents such as the 1919 Treaty of Versailles and the 1953 Koreanarmistice, both of which created conditions for future catastrophes. A major theme is the collapse of American industrial capacity. Germanicus asserts that the United States has lost the skilled labor and shipyards necessary to maintain naval dominance, describing the current state as atrophied and sclerotic. He suggests that the United States must now rely on allies such as Japan and Korea for naval deterrence against China because American shipbuilding cannot revive itself for at least fifteen to thirty years. He concludes that the nation is in deep trouble but lacks the pragmatic builders required to fix it, suggesting a period of drift that may last until 2055. (2)
Nobody toppled Charlemagne's empire with a sword. Nobody burned it down with a torch. It was taken apart with a law.Most history counts the battles. This channel reads the contracts. You've been told Charlemagne's empire just fell apart — his sons fought, the Vikings came, the center broke. That version is true as far as it goes. It's just far too small.The real weapon was Frankish partible inheritance — a legal custom built for chieftains splitting up cattle and hillforts. In 843 it got applied to an empire that ran from the Atlantic to the Elbe. The lawyers were ready for it. The parchment was drawn up. The seals were stamped.The Treaty of Verdun gets remembered as a peace agreement. What it really was, was an estate-planning contract written at the scale of a civilization — negotiated by teams of church lawyers, notaries, financial administrators, and surveyors who spent months calculating fiscal revenues and drawing ecclesiastical circuits. They thought they were doing estate planning. They were also, without having any idea of it, doing nation building. France and Germany begin at Verdun.Nobody conquered Charlemagne's empire. They inherited it. And inheriting it broke it into pieces.════════════════════════════
