We give a new perspective on the homological characterizations of amenability given by Johnson & Ringrose in the context of bounded cohomology and by Block & Weinberger in the context of uniformly finite homology. We examine the interaction between their theories and explain the relationship between these characterizations. We apply these ideas to give a new proof of non-vanishing for the bounded cohomology of a free group.
