Can money and power ever make us happy? How much is enough? Our constant desire for more is part of our human nature.

Some call it a useful dowry of evolution, others a fault in the human genetic make-up: The old mortal sin Greed seems to be more ubiquitous than ever. Why can't people ever get enough, where is this self-indulgence leading - and are there any ways out of this vicious circle of gratification?

"People like to have a lot of stuff because it makes them the feeling of living forever," says American social psychologist Sheldon Solomon, who believes today's materialism and consumerism will have disastrous consequences.

Anyone who fails to satisfy his or her desires in this age of the Ego is deemed a loser. But with more than 7 billion people on the Earth, the ramifications of this excessive consumption of resources are already clear. Isn’t the deplorable state of our planet proof enough that "The Greed Program," which has made us crave possessions, status and power, is coming to an end? Or is the frenzied search for more and more still an indispensable part of our nature? We set off to look for the essence of greed. And we tell the stories of people who - whether as perpetrators or victims or even just as willing consumers - have become accomplices in a sea change in values.

Intelligence was once thought to be uniquely human. But researchers have discovered astonishing cognitive abilities in many other species—not just our close cousins like chimps, or fellow mammals like dolphins—but also crows, parrots, and even octopuses. If we consider the intelligence of swarms, we must add bees, termites, and ants to the list of super smart creatures. Join the scientists who study smarts as we ask: What is intelligence? Why do some species get an extra dose? And just how special are humans, really?

This program is part of the BIG IDEAS SERIES, made possible with support from the JOHN TEMPLETON FOUNDATION.

Chinese Firm Mines Gold in DR Congo Heritage Site | Vantage with Palki Sharma

A Chinese firm is mining gold in an endangered UNESCO World Heritage site in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Okapi wildlife reserve in the DRC has been a protected reserve for decades. But a Chinese firm struck a deal with some DRC government officials and got a permit to mine gold in the protected land. The officials redrew the reserve's boundaries to allow the Chinese firm to mine inside the reserve. Locals say that they are suffering because of the Chinese mine, and that the protected area is getting devastated.

It has almost become unpopular to talk about what it means to be a man, to deal with the concept of Manhood. You’ve got to deal with it.
About this event.

WE ARE BLACK MEN!

“It has almost become unpopular to talk about what it means to be a man, to deal with the concept of Manhood. You’ve got to deal with it. You can’t get around it.” – Nana Amos Wilson

“Affirming Black Manhood” attempts to contribute to the process of Black man taking back the power to define, develop & project what it means to be a Black Man. Our facilitators approach Black Manhood from varying perspectives, with an emphasis on promoting the values, principles & ideals that represent the best of who we be... And need to become.

We will engage a series of workshops on various aspects of Black Manhood, including space for general discussion. Our special guest facilitators are all Black Afrikan Men with a proven track record of sustained work with Black Men; addressing issues pertaining to Black Manhood!

Notice :
Entretien avec son Excellence Amadou Hampâté Bâ, un des interprètes les plus authentiques du génie de la tradition orale africaine. Il est donc un interlocuteur particulièrement capable d'effectuer une synthèse vivante de la réalité africaine, et de la faire découvrir à ceux qui l'ignorent. C'est lui qui est l'auteur de la formule devenue célèbre : "En Afrique, quand un vieux meurt, c'est une bibliothèque qui flambe". L'émission qui lui est consacrée veut mettre en évidence la grande richesse de ses connaissances et l'apport de son message d'Africain éclairé au patrimoine universel de la culture. Amadou Hampâté Bâ est un de ces derniers traditionnalistes qui vont disparaître et son témoignage constitue à ce titre un précieux document sur l'Afrique. Il rappelle que "la culture africaine est d'ordre spécifiquement oral ; la colonisation, l'alphabétisation, et à un niveau différent, le travail ethnologique, ont brisé les ressorts qui permettaient à cette culture de se perpétuer et de se développer". En attendant, Amadou Hampâté Bâ veut mobiliser les esprits pour que tout soit enregistré et filmé. C'est d'ailleurs ce qu'il fait ici lui-même, avec intelligence et humour. En ethnologue et en poète, il nous explique les modes selon lesquels les jeunes sont initiés, et en quoi la transmission du savoir est indépendante du savoir lui-même. Les âges de la vie, les cérémonie de circoncision, tout est prétexe à chants et à création collective. Amadou Hampâté Bâ chante et récite les poèmes et les contes qui se transmettent depuis des générations. Il évoque le lion et l'univers extraordinaire qui entoure sa capture. Il raconte avec humour comment les africains mentent aux ethnologues. Mais c'est quand il parle de la femme et de l'éthique africaine qu'il est peut-être le plus émouvant.
