Fascinating subject today. Listened to it again, because at times it got a bit esoteric for me. I think I get the gist of it, tho, and I do want to understand with more clarity.

The legacy of colonialism and slavery has left deep scars, psychic trauma and shame that continues to divide us. Hear the experience of an African American scholar and professor of African American studies who traveled to Nicaragua to teach but learned more than he expected about racial identity and culture in the Central American Republic of Nicaragua.

    The Destruction of Buddah

    TalkingFeather Radio interviews Sharif Abdullah founder of The Common Way Institute and author of several books including "Creating A World That Works For All". Sharif Abdullah is a world traveler most recently landing in Sri Lanka. He will share his views of the political and social climate in Sri Lanka that he has observed there while on his quest to create a world that works for all. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote from Sharif Abdullah' most recent email to Common Way Members. ------------------- "Recently, I was in the Midwest, doing a presentation on Sri Lanka before an audience of a few dozen people. To exemplify the Sri Lanka military, I downloaded a few photos of the proud Sri Lankan soldiers in their snappy uniforms, marching. One woman raised her hand and asked, “I thought Sri Lanka was a Buddhist country. Where are the Buddhists?" "To answer, I blew up the picture of the Sri Lanka soldiers, focusing on the hand of the soldier in the foreground. Around his wrist was a telltale white band. I told her, “These soldiers ARE the Buddhists. This band is the cord each one of them received when he went to the Buddhist temple to get the blessings from the monks, before marching off to kill human beings."

    "Savages and Scoundrels" What Does America Owe The Indians?

    TalkingFeather interviews author and historian Paul VanDevelder concerning his latest article in American History Magazine and his new book "Savages and Scoundrels". "In 2009, Indians comprise about 1 percent of the population, and irony of ironies, the outback real estate they were forced to accept as their new homelands in the 19th century holds 40 percent of the nation’s coal reserves. And that’s just for openers. At a time when the nation’s industrial machinery and extractive industries are running out of critical mineral resources, Indian lands hold 65 percent of the nation’s uranium, untold ounces of gold, silver, cadmium, platinum and manganese, and billions of board feet of virgin timber. In the ground beneath that timber are billions of cubic feet of natural gas, millions of barrels of oil and a treasure chest of copper and zinc. Perhaps even more critically, Indian lands contain 20 percent of the nation’s fresh water."
