This week, ABC Religion & Ethics brings together stories of memory and the hidden forces that shape how we live and think.
On Soul Search, we mark NAIDOC Week 2025 by honouring the strength, vision and legacy of First Nations communities through prayer, art and cultural memory. Hear from Aboriginal artists and elders on how spiritual life continues to shape resistance, renewal and connection to Country.
On The Religion & Ethics Report, we turn to New York City, where the Democratic mayoral primary has become a flashpoint in global politics. Zohran Mamdani, a state assemblyman of Indian Muslim background and vocal critic of Israel, won nearly half the vote — in a city where around 9 per cent of residents are Muslim and 12 per cent are Jewish. Journalist Etan Nechin of Ha'aretz unpacks what this race reveals about shifting political coalitions and religious identity in American public life.
And on The Philosopher's Zone, we dive deep into the ideas of Freud and Wittgenstein to unpack the unconscious mind. How do we make sense of thoughts we can't quite name — or don't even know we have? This episode explores how two of the 20th century's most influential thinkers approached the murky, powerful terrain beneath our conscious lives. |
