Inclusive Activism

Calvin and Rowdy give you a retrospective out their lives to give you a sense of the humans behind the process. Many times either Calvin or Rowdy have been a bit too deified or seen as more than the simple humans they are – this podcast puts that notion to bed with times we made mistakes. How we learned and grow. And the simple steps we take daily to become the humans we are today – and who we hope to grow into being tomorrow.

As always if you want to reach out to either of us please do you can find Calvin at www.calvinterrell.com or email him at [email protected] and to reach out to Rowdy you can go to www.inclusiveactivism.com or email the podcast at [email protected]

Please share the podcast and rate and review the podcast too!

As it so happens there have been and email here and there. A DM here and there, and lots of comments as feedback. And silly me didn’t consider podcasting them all as I thought they were all just to me rather than the seeds of a dialog that are beginning to emerge from Inclusive Activism and Emerging Evolution.

So here it is our first Questions and Comments podcast! From you the listeners. We talk about podcasts from a while ago and podcasts for just last week. So sit back and relax and welcome to the first (of hopefully many) community conversations!

Remember if you want to comment and be part of the dialog you can record your voice memo or email me at [email protected]. For more about my and my site hop over to www.inclusiveactivism.com. Or if you want to reach out to dialog with Calvin you can do so at [email protected] or www.calvinterrell.com or www.socialcentric.com. Also keep those ratings and reviews coming all of this goes a LONG way to making us the community and our efforts to help and heal the world happen. Remember WE>me and #counselculture and #counselcultureovercancelculture

Blessings!

Counsel Culture is more transformational than Cancel Culture.  In this episode we will look at how I should have been canceled in the past with SEVERAL examples BUT we will learn how Counsel Culture made me redeemable! We examine the problematics of Cancel Culture and deconstruct it as a tool of whiteness and colonial thinking special thanks to Michelle Dew for this thought! We also look at the idea of Counsel Culture as anti-ist in nature and a form of indigenized thought (not decolonized thought thank you to Charissa Sundust) to fight for equity. We look at the notion of Counsel Culture, and why we need it, as well as how to engage in it to separate ideas from the person from with we are in counsel. We talk about steps to take to engage with Counsel Culture – we recognize that it is in fact VERY HARD. But we also see when we learn more about Counsel Culture we learn more how toxic ideas infect and hurt others and how to heal others into wholeness together with us.

Lastly I want to acknowledge my people in the fight against these colonial notions you can call on to help you with your #counselculture. #CounselCulture>CancelCulture.

Too often it appears we get caught up in the either or paradigm. It is very important to note no one on either side of a issue is actually completely right. AND too often no one on either side is really truly on the side of us as the people. And no one is really committed to living in an eco-centric way centering the earth and our community in a way that causes no harm.

Join Calvin the Drapetomanic and Rowdy the Inclusive Activist as we examine this idea and concept to look for the truth for what we need to do through our emerging evolution to be more social centric.

In this story for today we look at some of the macro systems we are seeing with the pandemic and attempt to make a parable – a fable – an indigenous tale out of what we are seeing with the current pandemic. When I envisioned this I was trying to do a form of sense-making of the pandemic, the economic recession/potential depression (finally was right on this), and wave of social justice and equity which is arising. I had hoped to do this with Calvin – but as true justice advocates it has been hard to connect. This was done with my wonderful friends at the RocketFeather Podcast Kelly and Charles.

Simply put the stories we tell and choose to add the power of our belief in create our worlds. This is why we must be clear and show where we want to go and what we want to do when we tell our stories. Think about our words Believe is so much like BE-LIVE, same with Belief is so akin to BE-LIFE. See how powerful our words can be when we act as though these things are true. We then pivot to telling and replication stories – to see the power of how stories create our lives think of the power of television – break that down to TEL-A-VISION – we too tell visions and creations of possible futures to one another.

In today’s podcast we talk about the need the critical and crucial need for action language with what to do in order to create and shape the world we hope to live. It is not enough to say stop doing something – in there is not action in NOT doing a thing. Change requires behavior replacement. We cannot be NOT racist we must be anti-racist. We cannot just be male feminists we must be anti-mysognist. It is not enough of a story to only say Defund the Police – we should consider changing our language to show where we to go. Defund the Police and Refund the Community – see how much clearer that future looks for others? If we cannot summatively and quickly articulate our story of the future the BE-LIFE-ABILITY of our dreams is affected. We must practice and get better at our ability to TEL-A-VISION to create our intended reality.

For today’s podcast Calvin the Drapetomanic and Rowdy the Inclusive Activist look at the Numbing Trap. Right now life is VERY hard. And it is so easy to just reach for a stiff drink or smoke up and check out. But Numbing is a lot wider than that too – its over-eating or eating food that hurts your body, its video game addition, gambling, and porn. Numbing is anything that you use as a way of stopping the feelings of discomfort and pain. So yes even that smart device in your hand is a way of becoming numb to the world.

The issue is we cannot only feel good feelings. When we begin the process of numbing we numb EVERYTHING. Then we feel nothing. No joy no pain – we wonder the world as a hungry ghost forever looking for something that eases the pain but it just doesn’t work. Addiction is a substitute for something you truly want and need that you cannot have and it distracts you for a moment but makes the hole within you bigger.

For Today’s podcast we look at the idea of evil. The idea of the evil in the world and how easy it is to see the evil in others. I will talk about how much violence I am harboring within myself in light of current events. I am thinking about what it is doing within me and how I am feeling carrying it. We look at how my violence might against one of the most violent systems of oppression know to man the US Criminal Justice System – where bail money just feeds the best. And finally we will look at my need for something new of different to communicate – more violence from me is fighting fire with fire which makes the whole world burn. You can’t do a don’t but the struggle with the Devil In/And I is keeping me stuck for a new Do.

Today we look at our different viewpoints or frame around constant pain. We look at others Pain from a bewildered standpoint. We look at the pain of those we have grown numb to over time. And we look at our own choice to remain in the Pain of the Same – rather than engage in the Pain of Change.
