actually actually the state needs to get training from the church as to what is right and wrong because most of what that governor out in california does is immoral and insane
Greg BurtSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
22:30
right exactly that's why what churches need to be doing is asking for religious accommodations right which the law the federal law and the state law already require businesses uh to accommodate uh people's faith uh if they're being required to do something that violates their faith so what what we need churches to do is this is one of those Points in history here in California where civil disobedience is going to be

necessary.

And when it doesn't do that, it's immoral not to stand up and say something.
William CrawleyHOST
3:48
So you just heard there various episodes of civil disobedience historically and some of them quite recently.
William CrawleyHOST
3:54
We had Gandhi, Rosa Parks, Mandela, Just Stop Oil, the Wall Street protests.
William CrawleyHOST
3:59
And we could have filled an hour, I think, of a montage of protests in Northern Ireland in our history and even before the start of the troubles.
William CrawleyHOST
4:09
But let's be clear, civil disobedience, can we accept this definition? Civil disobedience involves breaking the law.
William CrawleyHOST
4:17
That's a starting point.
William CrawleyHOST
4:18
It involves breaking the law.
William CrawleyHOST
4:20
But there are many ways to break the law and they're not all the same.
Peadar TóibínGUEST
38:26
I think, I, I think most of your listeners are, are well-educated.
Peadar TóibínGUEST
38:29
Most of your listeners will have studied history, and most of your listeners will understand a thing called civil disobedience.
Peadar TóibínGUEST
38:36
And in many, many situations, in democracies across the world, there have been occasions where people have had to stand up and be counted, even if it was against the law.
Peadar TóibínGUEST
38:47
So countries like South Africa, for example, it was legal to discriminate against, uh, people with Black skin, and people had to break the law to stand up in those a- areas.
Roger HallamGUEST
9:48
And they sort of were working because everyone thought, you know, everyone will be sensible, and you just need to go and tell the powers that be that, you know, it's not a good idea to have carbon emissions, and they'll go and act upon it.
Roger HallamGUEST
9:59
I think in two thousand and eighteen, there was like a contextual step change where people actually realized the elites were not going to do it, and this is what led to the move towards civil disobedience in the same way as, you know, Black people in the Deep South in nineteen sixty-two had been working for eight years to get their rights.
Roger HallamGUEST
10:15
And in the Montgomery campaign, they decided they were gonna do something different, which happened to work.
Roger HallamGUEST
10:20
I think the context of Insulate Britain was coming straight out of COVID.
Roger HallamGUEST
10:26
There was a sense in which, at least myself and the two or three people I set it up with, there was a, a feeling that we had to do a campaign to bot-- basically reestablish the movement because everything had collapsed, because everyone had been, you know, in their homes for a year or so.
Roger HallamGUEST
10:42
So the idea of Insulate Britain was a small number of people doing high-powered civil disobedience, blocking motorways in order to do something that was, as you say, a no-brainer.
Roger HallamGUEST
10:53
The single biggest return on investment to reduce carbon emissions is to put insulation in people's houses.
Roger HallamGUEST
11:00
So obviously, that's the first things people should do.

Dominic CarterHOST
1:48
And you know, folks, it's kinda odd for me to listen to that because I go back to covering, uh, the quote unquote, uh, "Days of Civil Disobedience," which were a joke in New York City, uh, back in the '80s, and that was the chant that came out of that.
Dominic CarterHOST

Tamara Sheesley ValisHOST
1:40
Well, and I love that you're like, "Let's talk about Montessori as a form of civil disobedience." What do you mean by that?
Catherine McTamaneyGUEST
1:51
Okay.
Catherine McTamaneyGUEST
1:51
So thinking, thinking really broadly, I think a lot of what we do as Montessori teachers is what's motivating us as Montessori teachers and brings us into the work is the child who's in front of us, right? We know there's a, there's an ability to, to care for this child, to be able to create a space for them that's different than anyplace else in the world.
