BORGERS VAN BURGERSCHAP
De democratie staat of valt met het vermogen en de wil van haar burgers om een bijdrage te leveren aan het algemeen belang, de gemeenschap, en om open te staan voor verschillen tussen mensen en op een vreedzame wijze conflicten op te lossen. De vraag die bij ons leeft is: Hoe staat het met dat vermogen en die wil van de burgers en wat betekent dat voor het opgroeien en opvoeden van kinderen in onze samenleving? Met de podcast-serie ‘Borgers van Burgerschap’ willen we vanuit de Vreedzame School en de Vreedzame Wijk hier graag een verdieping in aanbrengen. Je kunt luisteren naar verdiepende gesprekken over vraagstukken en kwesties rond het gedachtengoed van ‘Vreedzaam’. We onderzoeken hoe we burgerschap kunnen borgen in onze samenleving. Dat begint bij de opvoeding van de kinderen thuis, maar ook op school, in de buurt en in grotere verbanden. Radiomaker Bart Geeraedts gaat in gesprek met ‘borgers’ die burgerschap belichten vanuit de wetenschap en onderzoek en/of vanuit hun visie en expertise op het gebied van opvoeden en democratisch burgerschap in onze samenleving.

ADA AT 30: ACCESSIBILITY IN PITTSBURGH
"Let the shameful wall of exclusion come tumbling down.” As the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 was signed, President George H.W. Bush spoke those words. If you live long enough, you’ll develop a disability—if you don’t already have one. The 30-year-old act promises that despite that, you’ll easily cross streets, hold a job and live as independently as possible. How’s that working for us? This five-part podcast brings Pittsburgh-area people with disabilities finding their place in towns, stores and faith communities. The program is produced by PublicSource in collaboration with Unabridged Press and supported by The FISA Foundation. The Center for Media Innovation at Point Park University provided technical assistance.
FROM MY STANDPOINT
In an age where perception is fact and negativity and conflict remain entertainment, it can be difficult and sometimes troubling to find a positive and try and understand another’s perspective. Join Josh C. Jones, an author, teacher, speaker, and more, as he discusses different topics in an attempt to showcase a differing perspective with a nugget of positivity and truth. Let's ask those questions, travel some of those logical thought trails, think outside the current culture's accepted cognition, and find some valuable information, which could very well bring hope, understanding, and a proper perspective to our lives. With these podcast episodes, as with my books and writings, I hope to help you rebuild your faith, reignite your hope, overcome depression, open that dialogue, and reach your destiny of richness, success, and life.
