Holy smokes, theology nerds – buckle up for a prophetic ride through Black Christology that'll completely recalibrate your understanding of Jesus and faith in times of empire. I am joined by Dr. Adam Clark as he traces the revolutionary lineage from Howard Thurman's mystical Jesus who refuses the "hounds of hell" (after being called a traitor to dark peoples for following Christianity), through Albert Cleage's literal Black Messiah who'd be riding in the colored section of Jim Crow buses, to James Cone's God who shows up at the lynching tree. At a moment when Christian nationalism weaponizes the gospel to enforce xenophobic authoritarianism, this prophetic tradition reminds us that authentic Christian witness is found in loving solidarity with the crucified of today. This isn't polite reflection, friends – it's resistance theology that exposes how God deliberately identifies with the oppressed, choosing foolishness to shame the wise and weakness to shame the strong. This episode might flip your theological world upside down, but that's precisely what good theology should do. To get Adam's lecture and four more, join the class,⁠⁠The Many Faces of Christ Today⁠⁠. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. Adam Clark is Associate Professor of Theology at Xavier University. He currently serves as co-chair of Black Theology Group at the American Academy of Religion, actively publishes in the area of black theology and black religion and participates in social justice groups at Xavier and in the Cincinnati area. He earned his PhD at Union Theological Seminary in New York where he was mentored by James Cone.

It's Thursday, and time to catch up on the week in politics with Stephanie Grace, editorial director and columnist for the Times-Picayune/The Advocate. Today we hear about the latest rift between Mayor Cantrell and the city council – this time over trash pickup in the French Quarter. Downriver from NOLA, a small Mississippi River offshoot, dubbed Neptune Pass, formed in 2020. The Army Corps of Engineers are looking at closing the opening as it presents problems for navigation. But the Coastal Restoration and Protection Authority and other coastal advocates argue it's an opportunity for coastal restoration. Alex Kolker is an oceanographer, geologist and climatologist at the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium. He joins us to share his new research on how the pass is building land using sediment from the Mississippi River. Earlier today, Robert Francis Prevost was announced as the new pope. The Chicago native – who will now be known as Pope Leo XIV – is the first American pope in the Vatican's history. Leading up to the selection, many had hopes for who the new pope might be, and what communities he might represent. Kathleen Dorsey Bellow, director of Xavier University's Institute for Black Catholic Studies, spoke to us about Pope Francis' legacy among Black Catholics and what she hopes to see for the future of the Catholic Church. And just a note, this conversation was recorded before the announcement of the new pope.___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Bob Pavlovich.

But it's been added to public water to help prevent tooth decay since the 1940s. In recent years, it's become politically controversial, with people like Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claiming the mineral is a quote “industrial waste” with links to cancer, IQ loss and autism – despite no evidence.Now, a bill to ban fluoride is headed for debate on the Louisiana Senate floor. It was written by Republican state senator Mike Fesi, who called fluoride a poison and falsely connected it to potentially causing autism.The Gulf States Newsroom's Drew Hawkins spoke with Scott Tomar, associate dean at the College of Dentistry at the University of Illinois Chicago to unpack the truth about fluoride.—Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karen Henderson.

So, the show today, it's sort of an encore but not really an encore because I recorded this whole new introduction that you are currently listening to. And I also did a few inserts that we popped into the show itself. Inserts from the future, you might say. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. But why did I pull this episode from 2021, you might be wondering, as an immediate follow-on to the show from last week (EP469) about possible Medicaid cuts? Well, for one thing, the show last week about Medicaid cuts was about how the cuts might impact plan sponsors. And it left me feeling a little bit like part of the story was going unsaid. So much of what happens in healthcare, we see numbers on a spreadsheet but can easily lose track of human beings. I was reading something the other day. It reminded me of the people behind these numbers. I don't know if this happened in rural America, but it easily could have. Here's the link. Someone could not get a needed surgery. This surgery had all of the medical necessity boxes checked, except the hospital would not perform the needed surgery without cash up front in prepayment. This patient, he did not have enough money to cover the prepayment. So, somebody in the hospital finance department gave him a solution: Just wait until the situation becomes life-threatening, and then I guess you can go to the ER with your newly life-threatening condition, and they will have to perform the surgery without the money up front. And here we have the theme of people not being able to afford or not being able to access primary care or, in this case, I guess something more than that—a surgery—and they wind up in the emergency room. As John Lee, MD, put it, the healthcare system in this country is like a balloon. And the way we are currently squeezing it, everybody is getting squeezed into the emergency room—which is the very most expensive place to obtain care, of course, especially when that care is non-emergent. In rural America, this is particularly true. Now, by no means am I suggesting any kind of magic bullet to this Medicaid situation. As we all know, health and healthcare are not the same thing as health insurance; and we all know enough about the issues with Medicaid. That is not what the show is about. The episode that follows with Nikki King, who is my guest today, offers some great advice when there's just such a scarcity of clinicians available; and she does a great job of it. So, I am going to spend my time with you in this intro talking about rural hospitals in rural areas—the place where many patients wind up when they cannot get primary care in their community, just exacerbating all of the issues we have with Medicaid and affording Medicaid. But yeah, even if there is adequate or even great primary care, you still kind of need a hospital. The thing is, if an economic situation emerges where, say, for example—and this is the case in a lot of rural places—let's just say a factory or two or a mine or whatever closes down. It might mean the local hospital also closes down if that local hospital was dependent on commercial lives and cost shifting to those commercial lives. Like, this is not higher math or anything. It's easy to see how a doom loop immediately gets triggered. Recall that one big reason—and Cynthia Fisher (EP457) talked about this in an episode from a few months ago—one reason why employers in rural areas are choosing to move facilities somewhere else or overseas is that hospital costs are too high in the USA in these rural areas. So, they are closing their factory down because the hospital is charging too much. The lower the volume of commercial lives, the higher the hospital winds up raising their prices for the other employers in the area. Now, there's a point that comes up a lot in 2025 in conversations about rural hospital financials or just hospital financials in general, I guess. I had a conversation with Brad Brockbank about this a while back, and I've been mulling over it ever since. There are many who strongly suggest the reason why rural and other hospitals are in trouble is squarely because they don't have enough patients with commercial insurance in their payer mix. As Nathan Kaufman wrote on LinkedIn the other day, he wrote, “The ‘tipping point' is the percent of commercial gross revenues. When most hospitals hit 25%, if they don't have commercial rates in the high 300% [over Medicare] range, things begin to unravel.” And look, I'm not gonna argue any of the points here. How would I know? For any given hospital, it could be a financial imperative to try to get 300% over Medicare out of the local employers. I don't doubt it. The question I would ask, if someone knows that hospital finances are currently dependent on cost shifting, especially in a rural area with unstable industry, what are the choices that are made by hospital boards or leadership? Is this current dependency used as a justification to level up the cost shifting to local employers just as volume diminishes keep charging more, which is ultimately going to cause even more employers to leave the area? Which seems to be kind of a default. It's like the safety valve is, charge the local employers more. The point I'm making here is not all that profound, actually. It's just to point out that safety valve, taking advantage of it, comes with downstream impact that actually worsens a situation. So, what do we do now? And similar to the Medicaid, what I just said about Medicaid, I'm not showing up with any silver bullet here. And running a hospital is ridiculously hard. So, I do not wanna minimize that. And I certainly do not wanna minimize Medicare advantage paying less than Medicare going on and the mental health crisis and the just crippling issues that a lot of rural hospitals face. Here's a link to a really interesting report by the Center for Healthcare Quality & Payment Reform (CHQPR) about the ways hospitals can restructure and rethink how they deliver services, but I will take a moment to point out some case studies of success for what happens when people crossed off go get more money from the local employers off the list. Then there's also FQHCs (Federally Qualified Health Centers) doing some amazing things even in rural areas. Listen to the episode a while back with Doug Eby, MD, MPH, CPE (EP312) about the Nuka System of Care in Alaska, serving areas so rural, you need to take a prop plane to get to them. Their patients, their members have some of the best outcomes in the entire country. Their secret: yeah … great primary care teams that include behavioral health, the doctor, the nurse, a whole crew. And look at us. We've come full circle. Primary care (good primary care, I mean) is an investment. Everything else is a cost. Lastly, let me just offer a very large update: Today, you cannot just say rural hospital anymore and automatically mean a hospital in dire financial straits struggling to, like, make the rent. Large consolidated hospital systems have bought up so many rural hospitals for all kinds of reasons that may (or maybe not) have less to do with mission and more to do with all the things I discussed with Brennan Bilberry (EP395) in the episode entitled “Consolidated Hospital Systems and Cunning Anticompetitive Contracts.” Here is the original episode with Nikki King. Nikki, let me just mention, has gotten a new job since she was on the pod. She is now the CEO of Alliance Health Centers in Indiana. Also mentioned in this episode are Alliance Health Centers; John Lee, MD; Cynthia Fisher; Patient Rights Advocate; Brad Brockbank; Nathan Kaufman; Doug Eby, MD, MPH, CPE; Nuka System of Care; and Brennan Bilberry.   You can learn more at Alliance Health Centers and by following Nikki on LinkedIn.   Nikki King, MHSA, DHA, is the chief executive officer for Alliance Health Centers, Inc. Her work serves both urban and rural populations and is focused on substance abuse, communities underserved in healthcare, affordable housing, and economic development. Before working in the healthcare industry, she worked for the Center of Business and Economic Research studying models of sustainability in rural communities. Growing up as a first-generation college student in Appalachia, she brings lived experience of rural communities and approaches her work in healthcare as pivotal in breaking the cycle of poverty. Nikki completed her DHA at the Medical University of South Carolina and her MHSA from Xavier University.   08:14 How dire is the rural hospital situation right now? 08:33 How could freestanding ERs be a potential solution for rural hospitals? 09:56 Advice from CHQPR: Rural hospitals should not be forced to eliminate inpatient care. 11:22 Why is broadband a roadblock to telehealth as a solution for rural health access? 14:52 What are other potential rural health access solutions? 15:37 The “hot potato” of nurse practitioners in the healthcare world. 16:34 “The number of residencies for physicians each year is not increasing, but the population … is increasing.” 20:28 EP312 with Douglas Eby, MD, MPH, CPE, of the Nuka System of Care. 22:00 What's the issue with maternity care in rural America? 24:09 “As healthcare becomes more and more specialized, [the] ability to treat high-risk cases is better, but access gets worse.” 27:57 How is mental health care affected in rural communities? 28:29 “Rural communities are trying very hard to hang on to what they have.” 29:52 “When you look at the one market plan that's available in a rural community, you probably can't afford it.” 31:37 What's the single biggest challenge to moving to a model that incentivizes keeping people healthy? 32:32 “The easiest low-hanging fruit … is having national Medicaid and have that put under the same hood as Medicare.”   You can learn more at Alliance Health Centers and by following Nikki on LinkedIn.   Nikki King, MHSA, DHA, discusses #ruralhospitals and #ruralprimarycare. #healthcare #podcast #changemanagement #healthcareleadership #healthcaretransformation #healthcareinnovation   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

In Postcolonial Bollywood and Muslim Identity: Production, Representation, and Reception (Oxford UP, 2024), Nadira Khatun explores the contentious Muslim identity in contemporary India as reflected in recent Bollywood films. She argues that the approach towards Muslim identity in Bollywood films are influenced by the changing political landscape from Nehruvian India to the rise of BJP, which views Hindus and Muslims as separate religious communities instead of recognizing the syncretic culture manifesting in Hindu-Muslim unity. By analyzing the representation of Muslims in various films like Roja, Fanna, Mission Kashmir, Black Friday, New York, A Wednesday, Sarfarosh, she shows that the militant portrayal of Muslims is good for commercial success as opposed to a secular image. Overall, the study problematizes Muslim identity formation in Bollywood against the backdrop of nationalism and communalism in India.

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Eighth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 347The Saint of the day is Saint Katharine DrexelSaint Katharine Drexel's Story If your father is an international banker and you ride in a private railroad car, you are not likely to be drawn into a life of voluntary poverty. But if your mother opens your home to the poor three days each week and your father spends half an hour each evening in prayer, it is not impossible that you will devote your life to the poor and give away millions of dollars. Katharine Drexel did that. Born in Philadelphia in 1858, she had an excellent education and traveled widely. As a rich girl, Katharine also had a grand debut into society. But when she nursed her stepmother through a three-year terminal illness, she saw that all the Drexel money could not buy safety from pain or death, and her life took a profound turn. Katharine had always been interested in the plight of the Indians, having been appalled by what she read in Helen Hunt Jackson's A Century of Dishonor. While on a European tour, she met Pope Leo XIII and asked him to send more missionaries to Wyoming for her friend Bishop James O'Connor. The pope replied, “Why don't you become a missionary?” His answer shocked her into considering new possibilities. Back home, Katharine visited the Dakotas, met the Sioux leader Red Cloud and began her systematic aid to Indian missions. Katharine Drexel could easily have married. But after much discussion with Bishop O'Connor, she wrote in 1889, “The feast of Saint Joseph brought me the grace to give the remainder of my life to the Indians and the Colored.” Newspaper headlines screamed “Gives Up Seven Million!” After three and a half years of training, Mother Drexel and her first band of nuns—Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for Indians and Colored—opened a boarding school in Santa Fe. A string of foundations followed. By 1942, she had a system of black Catholic schools in 13 states, plus 40 mission centers and 23 rural schools. Segregationists harassed her work, even burning a school in Pennsylvania. In all, she established 50 missions for Indians in 16 states. Two saints met when Mother Drexel was advised by Mother Cabrini about the “politics” of getting her order's Rule approved in Rome. Her crowning achievement was the founding of Xavier University in New Orleans, the first Catholic university in the United States for African Americans. At 77, Mother Drexel suffered a heart attack and was forced to retire. Apparently her life was over. But now came almost 20 years of quiet, intense prayer from a small room overlooking the sanctuary. Small notebooks and slips of paper record her various prayers, ceaseless aspirations, and meditations. She died at 96 and was canonized in 2000. Reflection Saints have always said the same thing: Pray, be humble, accept the cross, love and forgive. But it is good to hear these things in the American idiom from one who, for instance, had her ears pierced as a teenager, who resolved to have “no cake, no preserves,” who wore a watch, was interviewed by the press, traveled by train, and could concern herself with the proper size of pipe for a new mission. These are obvious reminders that holiness can be lived in today's culture as well as in that of Jerusalem or Rome. Click here for more on Saint Katharine Drexel!

Preaching for the Feast of the Presentation, Anna Robertson offers a reflection on how the Prophet Anna's role in the readings informs our faith lives today: "[Anna] went forth preaching, carrying the Good News of the Light of the World beyond the walls of the temple to those who yearned for salvation. When we leave Mass on Candlemas, it is not enough to return to our homes with our candles, cozy in our assurance of our private salvation. Rather, Anna reminds us that we must bring the Good News out into the world, particularly to those who are suffering and longing for consolation." Anna Robertson is Director of Distributed Organizer at Discerning Deacons. In the past, she has served as Director of Youth and Young Adult Mobilization at Catholic Climate Covenant and Campus Minister for Retreats at Seattle University. She has a Master's of Theological Studies from Boston College Clough School of Theology and Ministry and a Bachelor of Arts in Theology from Xavier University in Ohio.

On this day, Nov. 11, 1915, Xavier University of Louisiana opened its doors in New Orleans, beginning its mission to educate Native American and Black students. Founded by St. Katharine Drexel and the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, this coeducational liberal arts college remains the only historically Black Roman Catholic institution in the United States. Recognizing the lack of Catholic higher education opportunities for Black students in the South, Drexel used her inheritance to establish Xavier as a school that would fill this critical gap. Originally a small high school known as Xavier Prep and later Xavier Preparatory A. Normal School, the institution provided training within the limited career paths available to Black students at the time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
