In this enlightening episode of the Up and Running Morning Show on 98.1 KZE, we are joined by the insightful Caroline Phipps. Invited for her monthly appearance, Caroline chooses to discuss the gravity of peace and justice through the lens of the powerful Peter Tosh song, Equal Rights. Correlating the song's deeper message with the concept of 'good trouble' as defined by the late representative John Lewis, we delve into the struggle between resistance and peacefulness.

We traverse the concept of integrity, examining how it has been seemingly under attack in recent times, and how people of integrity run the risk of being exploited. By referencing British Prime Minister Chamberlain's appeasement policy towards Hitler before World War II, Caroline illustrates how integrity and peace, without scrutiny, can be misunderstood and exploited.

Emphasizing the importance of 'good trouble', Caroline explains that it is crucial to discern when to resist and when to remain peaceful. Justice, equity, and inclusion for all are at the core of this concept. She highlights the paramount importance of words, stating that they can be more powerful than weapons, especially when employed for the noble cause of nonviolent resistance.

Calling on everyone to be part of the 'good trouble team', Caroline and the show host agree that kindness, freedom, and love should always be on our side. They encourage listeners to harness the power of the greater good, strive for peace, and cause 'good trouble', ensuring they stay morally strong and righteous.

The episode wraps up with Caroline inviting listeners to explore her website, which offers insightful articles, podcasts, videos, and tools to navigate turbulent times effectively. Offering a chance for a consultation by sending her an email, Caroline extends her guidance and knowledge to help listeners stay consistent in their pursuit of integrity, peace, and justice.
