The Rainbow and Religion |
June 29, 2023 |
|
We begin this episode at a rally in Montgomery County, Maryland where a battle over gender-inclusive policies has triggered a series of angry protests and demands by a new coalition of parents with Moms for Liberty, and conservative parents supported by the Council of American Islamic Relations and the Religious Freedom Institute. Then we hear about a new campaign to bring together people of faith and goodwill to respond to the challenges to LGBTQ+ policies, books, and legislation around the country.
Maureen O’Leary. Director of Field & Organizing for the Interfaith Alliance.

A Prayer for Salmon - Speaking for Salmon |
June 29, 2023 |
|
This installment of A Prayer For Salmon begins with the creation story of the Winnemem Wintu. At a sacred spring high up on Mt. Shasta, the Winnemem Wintu leaders recount the beginnings of the world when salmon gave up their voices so that humans could speak. They now feel a special obligation to defend salmon in return for this gift. A biologist details Chinook salmon’s catastrophic decline since the arrival of Euro-American settlers to California and the Northwest and producer Judy Silber explores the facets of the indigenous story and the history.
All of the episodes of A Prayer for Salmon can be found on The Spiritual Edge website.
