In this special Christmas episode of Religion and Justice , we are joined by Dr. Joerg Rieger to unpack the profound and often overlooked realities of the nativity story. Far from the idyllic scenes of "Silent Night, Holy Night," Dr. Rieger presents the birth of Jesus as a story of drama, precarity, and resilience amidst imperial power and systemic injustice. We explore how Jesus’s precarious beginnings—born in a stable, fleeing as a refugee, and navigating the threats of empire—mirror the struggles faced by the 99% today. Dr. Rieger challenges us to see the miracle of Christmas not just in divine intervention but in the solidarity of the many: shepherds, wise men, stars, animals, and ordinary working families who resist power grabs and embody hope. Join us as we reflect on the enduring lessons of Christmas, from the resilience of the oppressed to the call for solidarity and justice in our own time. This episode will inspire you to reconsider where the divine shows up today and how the Christmas story continues to guide us toward liberation. Perfect for: Anyone seeking a deeper, justice-oriented understanding of Christmas beyond the traditions of carols and pageantry.

In this episode of Religion and Justice , we sit down with Dr. Tad DeLay to discuss his latest work, Future of Denial: Ideologies of Climate Change . As global temperatures rise and wildfires, droughts, and floods become more common, denialism continues to morph—from greenwashing corporate strategies to political distractions. Tad DeLay offers a deep dive into the psychology, history, and capitalist machinery that fuel climate change denial. We explore the violent consequences of this denial for the world's most vulnerable populations, from militarized responses to refugees fleeing climate disasters to bogus claims of carbon neutrality. DeLay's interdisciplinary work pulls from critical theory, climatology, and political economy to answer pressing questions: Why do we continue to waste the little time we have left, and who will challenge the fossil fuel industry's death grip on the planet? Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that calls out capitalism's role in our ongoing ecological crisis.

In this episode, Gabby and George dive into the connections between ecological exploitation, economic inequality, and religion with renowned theologian Joerg Rieger. As the founder of the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice at Vanderbilt, Rieger shares insights on "deep solidarity," a concept that unites various forms of exploitation across class, race, gender, and environment to foster resilient alternatives. Rieger highlights how ecological care and human liberation are intertwined. He also challenges pie-in-the-sky religious ideals, calling for faith traditions to actively engage in building tangible alternatives to capitalism and environmental degradation. Join us for an engaging discussion on how religion, when reclaimed and transformed, can be a powerful force for social and ecological justice.

In this episode, we sit down with theologian Priscila Alves Gonçalves da Silva to explore how faith, solidarity, and human resilience intersect in times of socio-economic despair. Drawing on her personal experiences growing up in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro and witnessing her mother’s struggles during the COVID-19 pandemic, Priscila delves deep into the feelings of helplessness caused by modern capitalist systems. She reflects on how the working class often internalizes guilt for their poverty, and offers insights on how solidarity can dismantle these harmful narratives. Priscila shares her powerful call for action rooted in liberation theology, emphasizing the spiritual and ethical need to unite against exploitation. Through her story and expertise, we are invited to rethink what it means to care for one another in a world where survival often feels like a solitary struggle.

In this episode of "Religion and Justice," George Schmidt sits down with Chaia Heller, a writer, activist, and prominent voice in the field of social ecology. The discussion revolves around Chaia's article, "Tales from Eco-la-la Land," which explores the intersection of spirituality and ecological philosophy, and addresses the problems of moralizing and depoliticization within the ecological movement. Chaia shares her journey from studying with Murray Bookchin, the creator of social ecology, to critiquing the reductionist and sometimes harmful approaches within the broader ecological discourse. The episode examines the role of spirituality and its potential for both inspiration and distraction in ecological activism. Chaia recounts her experiences with deep ecology and the problematic tendencies to blame marginalized groups for overpopulation while ignoring systemic issues like patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, and racism. She argues for a secular socio-erotic approach to ecological engagement, celebrating the extra-rational while acknowledging the need for political and social action. Through this conversation, listeners gain insights into the challenges of moralizing within the Left and the need for transparent, rational discourse in political movements. Chaia emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clear distinction between personal spirituality and public policy, advocating for a secular approach to addressing ecological crises. Tune in to explore the complexities of social ecology, ecofeminism, and the quest for a joyful, socially just, and rational ecological society.
