Suffering from severe effects of the autoimmune illness, ME/CFS. There was a time I was certain this illness had stripped away all the 'me-'ness that mattered. Then one average day, a nothing happened which caused me to ponder the nature and circumstances of joy. This, is that. 00:17:00mjewellnoillnes,me/cfs,happiness,joy,pollyannaFinding Happiness in the Darknessbee50ce8-9fc4-4669-9e02-8440332afc9413fullhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/26/pretty-nearly-perfectly-happyCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/26/pretty-nearly-perfectly-happy/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/26/pretty-nearly-perfectly-happyFri, 26 Jan 2018 04:00:00 GMTPretty Nearly Perfectly HappyPlease join me tomorrow night as I talk about joy in the face of chronic illness. 00:01:00mjewellnome/cfs,joy,happiness,pollyanna,anne of green gablesJoin me tomorrow night what makes for happiness?http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/01/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-2Culturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/01/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-2/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2018/01/01/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-2Mon, 01 Jan 2018 04:00:00 GMTStreaming Consciousness: I Am Not Your Negro Part 2I grew up being fed stories of my people. In fiction, non-fictions, textbooks, documentaries, films and oral history; my parents equipped me with so much knowledge. Knowledge which formed the armor I needed in order to leave the complex home, in which I was understood...or at least misunderstood in the way all parents misunderstand their children; looking as they do through cataracts formed of fear and love; into a world which saw me as a person not at all. Into a world where each encounter presented the risk of being dismissed or disrespected...displaced entirely, by some who spoke not to me at all, but to what they imagined to be my race. The education my parents gave me in dealing with the white world both wounded and equipped me to deal. To understand, that the ignorance and even the hate which I faced on a daily basis was not personal, but a historical blindspot; inherited by one generation after another. James Baldwin understood my heart. 00:18:00mjewellnoamazon prime,james baldwin,samuel l jackson,raoul peck,raceThe beauty and rigor of being in the same boat.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2017/12/17/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-1Culturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2017/12/17/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-1/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mjewell/2017/12/17/streaming-consciousness-i-am-not-your-negro-part-1Sun, 17 Dec 2017 07:00:00 GMTStreaming Consciousness: I Am Not Your Negro Part 1I grew up being fed stories of my people.
