EPISODE FOUR: Searching for The Hero

 What we learn from history is that no one seems to learn from history: What if we were to embrace epic literature again, with its eternal lessons from the past and rebounding tropes of greed and empire that we still see in politics today? Can it still teach us about what constitutes heroism? Or more specifically, can we learn to find our own sense of heroism, which comes down to the most basic level of consciousness: to be present and attentive. That’s what we’re searching for here on ‘Landmark’: a sense of owning who we are.

This month, we speak to Abdallah Dutton who explodes the stereotypes of Cape Muslim ‘culture’ - a Scottish muslim living in Cape Town’s BoKaap, who has leant to live beyond identity politics. 

His own podcast also asks: “How does one become a hero in a world that teaches us to accept things the way they are?  Join Abdallah Dutton as he explores the concept of heroism in search of uncovering what we, as Muslims in the 21st Century, can do to live up to our heroic past.”
