Ep 174 Kitty Reads Holiday Lit for Peace: Charles Dickens - The Story of the Goblins Who Stole a Sexton plus The Next Peacelands

Kitty Reads Holiday Lit for Peace: Charles Dickens – The Story of the Goblins Who Stole a Sexton plus The Next Peacelands  This episode offers a lively seasonal reading from Charles Dickens’ 1836 tale The Story of the Goblins Who Stole a Sexton—a Christmas Eve story and an unmistakable early predecessor to A Christmas Carol. Kitty reads a short excerpt that highlights Dickens’ blend of humor, social conscience, and supernatural moral instruction. Kitty O’Compost continues warming up for The Peace Experiments (Season Zero), the forthcoming Peace Is Here series exploring peace, AI, and the cultural commons. For this special holiday edition of The Next Peacelands, Avis Kalfsbeek changes her focus from the factual grounding of warzones and arms suppliers to highlight the spiritual organizations and networks actively building peace around the world.
