A Brief History of Power Dr. Adam Koontz and Rev. Jonathan Fisk
-
- Religion & Spirituality
Every week Dr. Koontz and RevFisk check their privilege against the backdrop of the wide and varied annals of history. You don‘t have to believe the Babel about the sons of Noah being a rosetta for understanding the postmodern global politic to agree that an intellectual dark web exists because history always rhymes, no matter what you try to do about it. You might not save the world by listening, citizen, but that doesn‘t mean you won‘t save someone.
Because knowing is only the first half of the battle.
