“I say this with sincere love: I have listened to nearly the entire podcast except the last three episodes just to realize that most of what’s said is distracting abstraction. If the podcast is an accurate representation of the CAC, I think Richard is right that there is a concerning lack of solidarity with the Poor — one can tell by what’s said and not said in the conversations. I stopped listening to podcasts made by Poor people to listen to this and I feel I’ve wasted my time in some ways. Near the end of the whole project, there’s an attitude of “Gosh, what do we do now??” that brings frustrated tears to my eyes, Beloveds. There are other Voices who have had answers to these unanswerable(?) questions for a while now. It seems the group didn’t get serious about the question, “How does this help the Poor?” until the end. Why did you not start there? I do concede that, given the assumed timing of the recordings versus this review, I probably made a similar journey along the same timeframe as you all did. However, hindsight 2021, this podcast only begins to be somewhat helpful in the last season.
To be specific: there’s much talk about forgiveness and “the story” vs “our story”. Beloveds, can you accept that your message is more appropriate for the colonizer? Can quantum mechanics not be true at the social level, too? There’s no delineation between forgiveness in the context of the colonized vs the colonizer. For you to not make it clear that one should *never* ask the abused to forgive their abuser is *very* harmful to many people, Beloveds. Please consider that your “the story” is not quite a good fit for some people (marginalized people). Maybe it’s “our story” for those who benefit from colonialism.”

“But seriously. My heart is so blessed and hungry listening to these conversations, I’m sad I have to wait a whole week in between them. Thank you for doing these. I know I’ll be going back and re listening to them again and again.”

“Well, let me say that I can’t wait for the book to come out next week.
Father Richard’s teachings are so unashamedly life-affirming that you have to do a double-take to rid yourself of all the negative teaching that has been thrown your way. Just let this good flow soak into and out of you.”

“I read him in books. I read him in newsletters. I read him in Daily Meditation emailings. I pray him. I quote him. I recommend him. I have heard him. And now I listen to him. I wonder who his mentors are/were. I have met some of his mentees. He is a joy, a treasure, an oracle. I wonder who he...”Read full review »
