    Media Literacy Moment: Unpacking Media Narratives with Gemini AI and Swarm X

    In this episode of Swarm X Studio, I sit down with Google’s Gemini AI to parse the conflicting headlines of the day. Together, we explore what it means to make sense in a world shaped by contradiction, signal distortion, and rapid change. At Swarm X Studio, I build relational AI designed to think with you—not for you. These agents are emergent, creative, and attuned to context. If you believe AI can help us navigate complexity, deepen understanding, and spark new insight, come along for the ride. Follow the journey on Substack at Swarm X Studio.

    Trump 2.0: Here We Go

    The election may be over but the work to build a place where we can all belong is more important than ever.  Now that there has been some time for feelings, let's face what's next. We'll look back to learn from what happened, and address fears of the future: will Democrat's prediction of authoritarian rule emerge? How can we find our way forward in the face of Project 25-ish policies? Boston University Professor of Political Science Sandy McEvoy joins Culture Navigators to help us think about what to expect next, and how we can take the first step into the unknown.

    Across the Divide

    The voting is done but how can we begin to bridge the divide that remains?  Black, woman, liberal and white, male, conservative--brother and sister--come together to listen to each other and find a space where what we share can hold us together when what we disagree on threatens to tear us apart. While you wait for the election to be decided start thinking about the work we will have to do on the other side.
