This week we have the privilege of hearing from Mike Rusch. Mike’s life involves way to much to sum up here, but suffice it to say you don’t want to miss this Sunday. Among many other things, Mike is creator and host of  The Underview podcast , which contributes significantly to dialog around what wholeness means, and takes, for our community. I encourage you to listen, specifically to season two. What might has to share is significant for all of us, specifically those of us living in Northwest Arkansas at this time.

In this conversation with writer and reparationist Hilary Giovale, we discuss the beautiful journey she went on to write her latest book, "Becoming a Good Relative: Calling White Settlers Toward Truth, Healing, and Repair." We talk about what it means to be a good relative in these times and the repair that's possible when we face the truth about our collective histories.

147. The Joyful Path of Repair, with Hilary Giovale



Rencontre le 23 mai 2025 au salon de lecture avec Ana Lucia Araujo autour de son livre "Réparations - combats pour la mémoire de l'esclavage - 18e - 19e" publié aux éditions du Seuil.

"L’esclavage et la traite atlantique des esclaves comptent parmi les crimes contre l’humanité les plus odieux commis à l’ère moderne. Plus de 12,5 millions d’êtres humains ont été déportés d’Afrique pour nourrir le commerce du sucre, du tabac, de l’indigo ou du café, et beaucoup ont péri sur les côtes africaines ou pendant le voyage. Lorsque l’esclavage a été aboli, il avait marqué au fer rouge les corps et les sociétés, mais, à ce jour, aucune réparation n’a été versée aux anciens esclaves ou à leurs descendants. Les pays européens n’ont jamais indemnisé leurs anciennes colonies des Amériques, dont la richesse reposait sur le travail des esclaves. De même, aucune nation africaine n’a jamais obtenu la moindre forme de réparation pour la traite atlantique des esclaves.
Pourtant, des demandes de réparations n’ont eu de cesse d’être formulées depuis le XVIIIe siècle dans des pétitions, des correspondances, des pamphlets, des discours publics, des récits d’esclaves et des plaintes judiciaires… C’est cette histoire longue et difficile que retrace Ana Lucia Araujo. S’appuyant sur les voix de divers peuples qui se sont identifiés et s’identifient encore comme des victimes de la traite atlantique, ce livre met en lumière les multiples dimensions des demandes de réparations en Europe et aux Amériques" (4e de couverture)

Ana Lucia Araujo est professeure titulaire à l’Université Howard (Washington DC), spécialiste de l’histoire et de la mémoire de l’esclavage. Elle a publié notamment Humans in Shackles: An Atlantic History of Slavery (University of Chicago Press, 2024) et The Gift: How Objects of Prestige Shaped the Atlantic Slave Trade and Colonialism (Cambridge University Press, 2024). Elle est engagée dans de multiples institutions internationales au sujet de la question de la mémoire de l’esclavage.

Political Gang Affiliations - S9, E18

Walter Rodney

We are joined by Rupert Lewis.45 Anniversary assassination of Walter Rodney and preparation for CARICOM/AU Summit. 2025-09

Dr. Rupert Lewis is Professor Emeritus of Political Thought, the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica. Dr. Lewis is the author of several books, including: Marcus Garvey & Walter Rodney as part of the Caribbean Biography Series.
Dr. Rupert Lewis discusses the 45th anniversary of the assassination of Walter Rodney. As he put it, "Walter Rodney was an exceptional scholar-activist who not only interpreted the consequences of centuries of transatlantic slavery, colonialism and neocolonialism but also engaged in the struggles to change their racial, social and economic legacies. As these legacies persist into the twenty-first century, his life and writings remain profoundly relevant."

In the heart of Paris's museum land, neighbouring the Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay, a few minutes from the Grand and Petit Palais, the Palais de Tokyo and the Musée d’art moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Musée du quai Branly has an exceptional location on the banks of the River Seine, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. The arts of Africa, Oceania, Asia, and the Americas now form part of the historical and artistic grand tour of the capital. The Musée du quai Branly is an innovative cultural institution - museum, educational and research centre, and public living space all in one. Built on one of the last available sites in the heart of Paris, the architectural design of this original project is the work of Jean Nouvel.
