The son of an American woman of Dutch heritage and a Navajo man, Mark Charles offers a unique perspective on three of the most misinterpreted words in American History. Written in the Papal Bulls of the 15th Century, embedded in our founding documents in the 18th Century, codified as legal precedent in the 19th Century and referenced by the Supreme Court in the 20th and 21st Centuries, the Doctrine of Discovery has been used throughout the history of the United States to keep "We the People" from including all the people. Mark Charles is a dynamic and thought-provoking public speaker, writer, and consultant. The son of an American woman (of Dutch heritage) and a Navajo man, he speaks with insight into the complexities of American history regarding race, culture, and faith in order to help forge a path of healing and conciliation for the nation. Mark serves as the Washington DC correspondent and regular columnist for Native News Online and is the author of the popular blog "Reflections from the Hogan." Mark is a founding partner of a national conference for Native students called “Would Jesus Eat Frybread?” Mark’s forthcoming book on the Doctrine of Discovery entitled Truth be Told is being published by InterVarsity Press and will be available in 2019. Mark is active on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram under the username: wirelesshogan. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

While the world has its eyes on the Ukraine and Palestine wars, another war has been raging: Sudan is currently suffering the worst humanitarian crisis of recent times. But browse the news headlines on an average day, and you won’t find anything about Sudan.

Why? This war happens to be in a part of the world that very few care about and has been struggling with its identity. My new documentary tries to showcase Sudan's beauty and potential and hopefully get you to care and talk about what has been happening.

You can also directly help as a viewer by sharing this video, speaking about Sudan, writing to your MPs and pressuring them to intervene in stopping the war, supporting the businesses of any Sudanese person in your city, and donating to any of the following trusted NGOs:

HomeTax Sudan was established during the 2019 Sudanese uprising. It focuses on providing food, shelter, and medical aid to people displaced by violence and unrest.

The nonprofit, with 501(c)(3) status, advocates for civilian protection, crime accountability, and lasting crisis resolution in Darfur. It focuses on maintaining global attention on Darfur, educating children in camps, and providing skills training and support for women survivors.

SAPA responds to growing needs by offering on-the-ground support and raising funds to improve humanitarian and medical aid for those fleeing and distressed.

The Humanitarian Aid Commission launched a Registered Emergency fundraiser to provide internally displaced persons food, water, and shelter. It is active in areas from Al-Jazeera State to Sennar State.

Big thanks to my Sudanese friends for sharing their stories and hosting us in Khartoum:

Venture Capital and Private Equity firms poured tens of billions of dollars were poured into shares of farm equipment makers, fertilizer companies, and even indoor vertical farms and cropland. Conventional wisdom was that these were very safe investments that would yield outsized returns as the world struggled to feed itself over coming decades.

That investment thesis has now collapsed, amid plunging global food prices and soaring farm productivity. The ag sector of the developing world produced record crops, and did so without the expensive equipment produced by major Western farm equipment makers, such as John Deere and Case New Holland.

As VC and PE firms are now seeing double-digit annual declines in cash flows from their investments into the agriculture theme, we should expect them to sell their positions, and return to tech sector investment.
