Reviving a sense of community and reflecting on his time working with Martin Luther King Jr.
Martin Luther King Jr.'s message was rooted in uplifting the people and organizing Americans for a better sense of community. He passionately advocated for equality, justice, and unity, envisioning a society where individuals transcended racial and social divides to stand together in solidarity. King's powerful speeches, such as his iconic "I Have a Dream" address, emphasized the importance of love, understanding, and nonviolent resistance in pursuing a more harmonious society. His vision was about civil rights and fostering a collective spirit that could bring about positive change and create a stronger, more inclusive community where all people could excel and thrive no matter their background.

In this fascinating conversation, Harry joins Wilk to discuss:

•       How his father’s time with the Red Cross resulted in both Harry and his father working with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the S.C.L.C.
•       Run-ins with the KKK and other white supremacists.
•       The difference between the philosophies of pacifism and non-violence.
•        “Operation Dialogue” and the Citizenship Schools programs of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference
•       Finding the divine and humanity in all people.
•       Book: “If Your Back’s Not Bent” by Dorothy Cotton
•       Movie “Best of Enemies”
•       Our Christian faith & of course the common cause work we do with the organization Braver Angels

We wrap up our discussion by acknowledging the rising number of people who are leaving Commusocialist (formerly known as Democrat) Party, in favor of the conservative MAGA movement.

In the United States segregating class rooms is being offered once again, but now it's called 'progressive separatism' - an ideology driven by notions of intersectionality and post-colonialism. But author Yascha Mounk argues that identity politics has become a zero-sum-game, making it harder to achieve a fairer society. 

Guest: Yascha Mounk, author of “The Identity Trap: a story of ideas and power in our times” published by Penguin.

Anna Holmes, the founder of jezebel.com, and Crooked’s own Erin Ryan—the site’s former managing editor—join Offline to discuss the origin and legacy of a publication that redefined feminism for millions of women. With Jezebel shuttering last week, Anna, Erin and Jon question whether the site was a victim of its own success, to what extent it shaped identity politics, and if it’s fair to blame Jezebel’s readers for the anger and infighting we see on the internet today. But first! Max and Jon take a closer look at Osama bin Laden apologists on TikTok, the new device that claims to reduce phone dependence, and Ron DeSantis’ fight to post anonymously online.

Welcome to "On Meaning." Today with Tamir Dortal and Heather Mac Donald, we'll dive into a topic that's on everyone's mind yet isn't often deeply explored.

Do you ever wonder why there are so few black people in executive positions? Why is this considered rasicim, while large numbers of Asians in advanced math and science high schools, is?
 
 Heather Mac Donald, author of the new book "When Race Trumps Merit." She asks challenging questions about what truly lies behind these issues.

Is it in fact racism which leads to these disparities, or is there something else accuring?

Are we putting too much emphasis on race and not enough on merit?
How is this affecting our schools, jobs, police forces, and even our art, music, and culture?
Most importantly, what will happen to our society if we continue down this path?
Heather's book is bold and thought-provoking.  it may challenge what you thought you know about race and success in America.

Join us today as we ask difficult questions, explore different points of view, and try to understand what's really at the heart of these complex issues. It's a conversation you won't want to miss.

About 40 per cent of Americans are in religiously diverse partnerships. Despite herself being in a successful inter-racial and inter-faith marriage, leading writer and commentator Naomi Schaefer Riley says there are pitfalls, particularly with interfaith romances. 

In this episode, Tudor welcomes Bobby Burack to discuss the topic of affirmative action and its impact on minority communities. They argue that affirmative action should have had an expiration date, as it has led to increased dropout rates among black and Hispanic students. They also criticize the media for not discussing the negative consequences of affirmative action and instead focusing on celebrating certain individuals.

Romina Achatz is in conversation with Luca Mussnig- aka. „Freakygreenfish“ or simply „Fish“- an inter- and transdisciplinary artist- a video artist, painter, performer and actionist. He aims to experience life as a living painting by destructing and redefining the traditional concept of a painting.

In the beginning Luca Mussning reads a personal and poetic text about his relationship with the textures frames and linen. Linen sometimes served as a healing cocoon and the frames allegorically stand for social structures and limitations that he would rather break and reconstruct.

In the first part of the interview, he talks about his path and when he made his first mask or sculpture out of frames and linen.

Fish disorganizes and deconstructs the existing forms and structures until they become new forms and structures. By deconstructing the traditional painting, Fish wants to free it from the corset of the institutional framework and to transfer it into an environment that is accessible for everyone.

Romina Achatz and Luca Mussing talk about class, the role of art/ artists and education within society, the definition of politics, Antonio Gramsci, activism and the accessibility of art from a sociological perspective. What role play social media (Tik Tok/ Instagram ecc.)  in the presentation of art and why is Luca invested in researching about an addressing the „holy algorithm“? What are the benefits and downsides of it?

In his performances, the face, from which individuality subjectivity aims to be read, is mostly covered in frames and linen. But the mask is still a representation and a brand. Is to disguise and obscure the identity an effective practice of political resistance to the neoliberal call for transparency? They discuss his work in the framework of the hegemony of facility- and if it refers to the art of disappearing that Jean Baudrillard was writing about.

In the last part of the interview Romina Achatz and Luca Mussing talk about Audre Lorde and her quote: “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” Thinking with the book „Pleasure activism“ by Adrienne Maree Brown they discuss the difference between self care in the framework of an neoliberal self optimisation pressure versus true relaxation and pleasure.

The show ends with question to Fish: What is your mission for the future regarding our society?

Are liberal democracies in long-term decline? Why is the U.S. so intensely polarized and how can it recover from it? What is the serious problem with identity politics? Internationally acclaimed political scientist and author, Stanford’s Frank Fukuyama, has valuable answers.

Woke philosophy, sometimes marketed under the terms Social Justice Ideology or Critical Race theory, is the new, legalistic pseudoreligion of American culture. Its adherents operate with a cultish worldview, hold to a code they consider sacrosanct, expect all others to bow to this code, and then reject all who do not agree, including much about America's past and culture. This pseudo religion, because it subsumes the individual into the group and because contrary ideas are verboten, is inherently authoritarian, seeking and depending upon the coercive power of the state. This pseudoreligion now dominates public education, government, the military, and now increasingly corporate America. To pushback is to risk ridicule, cancelling, loss of reputation, and maybe loss of employment. For believers, one must keep the faith, for the Sovereign God is still in charge, and we can find hope and peace and strength to fight the good fight knowing his accomplished works, knowing his promises, and knowing his presence in our lives.
