In this Rising Tide Foundation lecture, Africa Agenda editor in chief PD Lawton takes you through a definitive history of Africa with a look to the future. PD introduces ancient African renaissance traditions that have long been suppressed by colonial powers since the 19th century and takes the viewer through the calamitous 20th century with a look to the good, the bad and the ugly dynamics that fought to revive Africa's noble heritage vs those interests that sought to keep the continent in a dark age, depopulated condition.
After evaluating the struggles led by such great men as Kwame Nkrumah, Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara and many others, PD evaluates how these historic currents are impacting today's Africa with a look towards those seeking a better future in tandem with China's Belt and Road Initiative vs those representing the anti-human Malthusian agenda.

In this 2013 lecture, Rising Tide Foundation director Matthew Ehret presents an introduction to the scientific discoveries that shaped our understanding of matter, electromagnetism and how the revolution in field theory gives us a better way to observe how systems of non-living, living, and cognitive matter are organised by future states of existence.
By investigating the role of magnetic fields in organising biotic, a-biotic and noetic systems (including cell regeneration, embryo development, bird and fish migrations and even evolution), we may be surprised to discover that we gain a better understanding into the ontology of mind as a unique phenomenon which self-reflects upon causality within the fabric of the the universe itself. We are also confronted with the important question: How can free will have a place within a universe of law and purposefulness?
If free will can indeed exist in a universe shaped by teleological principles (ie: future states shaping the unfolding of the ever changing flux of events we call the “present”), then how must this existent freedom be defined? How must the current popular notion of freedom as the “power to do whatever we want” be refined and uplifted?

Throughout the darkest days of the American war of indepedence, there was little reason to believe that a band of farmers on the outskirts of the known world stood a chance in a fight against the most evil, global, virulent empire the world had yet known. Were it not for the electric words and profound thoughts of Thomas Paine (revolutionary author of Common Sense and The Crisis Letters), then there is little reason to believe that the population would have developed either the intellectual or spiritual fortitude to carry out the battle to victory.
Times of great crisis require a rediscovery of the greatest ideas that inspired civilization to achieve miracles and it is with this intention that the Rising Tide Foundation was proud to host a lecture this Sunday June 11th called ‘Thomas Paine’s Lessons for Times that Try Mens’ Souls’ delivered by Sam Labrier.

In this interview on Zain Khan Live, The Rising Tide Foundation's Matthew Ehret, and renowned Pakistani philosopher Abdul Manan explore the relationship of philosophy and science with a focus on the figures of Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, and Bertrand Russell.
Are Harris and Dawkins correct in asserting that a science of morality must replace all articles of faith? If science progresses towards states of perfectibility over time, then is there a guiding standard beyond cold utilitarianism that guides the creative scientist towards their discoveries? Most importantly, the question is asked: how is it that an understanding of the failures of false paths of thinking enhances one's own ability to both problem solve and tap into our innate potentials for creative reason?
