David Miller @Tracking_Power What the ‘State of Israel’ wants most is to intimidate Muslims who protest against Zionist genocide in Palestine. It wants to turn the UK into occupied territory. It has succeeded in doing so among the UK's main political parties, with all of them, including the Greens and SNP, protecting Zionist beliefs by applying the IHRA definition of Judeophobia. Now it wants to take that political and media hegemony and replicate it on the streets of Britain. It is up to all of us to prevent this occupation — in the UK, in Europe and the Levant. #DismantleZionism Islamophobia incident in the UK: https://lnkd.in/dCrMiyzs

I've kept a little quiet about this until recently but I started a YouTube channel! As many people who know me know, I am very passionate about storytelling and especially the cause and effect of history on the things around us. I decided to translate that into a new creative medium that I have long talked about doing but have finally decided to commit too. Huge thanks to Timothy Desadier for helping me out on all of these both from a production standpoint but also a research and concept standpoint. This is the third video on the channel but I've got a lot more planned including some upcoming conservation topics that I am passionate about but also some more historical and nature videos :) My long term goal? Define what it actually means to be Texan. As I state at the end of this video: Legends and myths are exactly that, legends and myths. When we look at modern borders, it's easy with hindsight for us to say ‘what if’ but we do so with the benefit of hindsight. The legend of the Texas Revolution and the subsequent Republic has driven the cultural zeitgeist of Texas to today and into the future, and I’d like to challenge my fellow Texans not to reject this, but to attempt to better understand the who, the  what, the why, and the how. Only by understanding this, can we actually learn from history and its lessons. And only by understanding this, can we actually appreciate Texas for what it is and how it came to be.

On this #presidentsday we want to spotlight Barnabas Partner Frank Erb and the work he is doing as a missionary pastor in the State Capital. Jesus, let your Kingdom come and will be done at the Capital as it is in heaven! Interested in learning more about this ministry? Check out this video made by Bill Foster of Portlight Creative, Inc. for IGNITE last year about Frank's ministry entitled, "Light Before Kings." https://lnkd.in/gFDu_SHu

Today we are diving straight into the heart of current events, focusing on the ongoing protests at Columbia University. We are going to talk about the complexities of patriotism, personal purpose, and crisis response. 1. The emotional challenge of anti-American sentiment, seeking advice on how to engage constructively with divisive issues in a country we love. 2. How to support a partner in search of new beginnings and a meaningful life mission, particularly when life's path leads us through unexpected twists and turns. 3. Personal safety, with a discussion on effective tactics to respond to public threats, such as the recent tragic knife attack in Sydney. https://lnkd.in/gxTiGqNG
