In this surprising and wise conversation with Bayo Akomalafe Ph.D, we learn how to see the defeat of the neo-liberal agenda in a new light. We begin to see what is possible when human dominance and control are removed from the center of life and our lives. Dr. Akomalafe’s vision for the future imagines a true and deep sanctuary for what is broken, hidden, afraid, and even “monstrous” in ourselves. Being defeated in “getting things right” then becomes a liberation from an oppressive master-slave dynamic that continues to inhibit our programs of antiracism, climate justice, and closing the wealth gap.
Listen to Polly Young-Eisendrath, Ph.D. and Seth Gillihan, Ph.D. talk about the big ideas from her recent book, Love Between Equals: Relationship as a Spiritual Path. Polly presents an inspiring view of committed relationships—not at all an idealized view, as she acknowledges the challenges in sharing life with another person.
