35. What we truly burn for

September 18, 2022

Transcript So I’ve been reading a book called Under the Sky We Make, by the climate researcher and professor Kimberly Nicholas. Kim’s work is outstanding.

15. Reimagining community

October 2, 2020

Transcript So this coronavirus is a great demystifier. It’s pulling aside the curtain on fractures in our society, the weak places that keep us from pulling together as a community during a pandemic. Fractures like racism and inequality. And today I’d like to talk about something that underlies all the weak points, and that is…  Read More…

14. Everything is alive and we are all relatives

September 18, 2020

Transcript “Everything is alive, and we are all relatives.” The sentence showed up in an essay I read this week by a Native Hawaiian philosopher named Manulani Aluli Meyer. Manulani was quoting a teacher of hers who said that this one sentence, with its two simple ideas, is what Indigenous peoples from around the world…  Read More…
