S2-EP34 - The Global Family Footprint
Episode 34
Wednesday, 15 July, 2026
Faridah Abdul-Tawwab Brown and Frank Abdul Shaheed introduce a 3rd episode to a new season of The Family Ties, framing the show as a prescription for healing the human family through a covenantal relationship with God, rooted in the African American experience of chattel slavery and the creation of culture from “essence” rather than inherited traditions. They discuss how obedience, spirituals, blues, and jazz expressed humanity and helped shape America, which they describe as the “final conversation” on human establishment and a call back to founding ideals. They contrast human capital guiding material production versus materialism controlling people, and address February 2026 global conflicts, highlighting Palestine/Jerusalem as a focal symbol of justice and sacred human life. They emphasize knowledge, revelation, leadership, charity (including Ramadan), and invite audience engagement via their website and social platforms.00:00 Welcome to Family Ties00:47 Covenant in Hardship03:41 America as Final Test05:33 Defining Family Culture07:17 Creating Culture from Nothing11:31 Essence of Liberation14:58 Music Blues and Jazz Roots16:52 Human Capital vs Materialism21:04 Palestine and Sacred Justice27:00 Knowledge Revelation Leadership29:09 Charity Ramadan and Good Life32:31 Closing and Stay Connected----------------------------------------------------This podcast is about family life as a means to address current problems in American society.
