People experience and comprehend time in different fashions in response to events occurring around them. The experience of time and the speed at which change is perceived to occur may alter during eras of crisis. Time can feel compressed for some and broad or flat for others. These comprehensions of time in turn give form to political views and provide impetus for actions in the political sphere. Political reforms may seem to fast and without foundation for some and not nearly fast enough for those desperately seeking change. Using French thinkers and activists of the radical left and right between the Dreyfus Affair and the First World War as a case study, Dr. Alexandra Paulin-Booth argues that time provides an important means of exploring how concepts such as nationalism, revolution, and social change were understood at the turn of the century.  In her latest work, Time and Radical Politics in France: from the Dreyfus Affair to the First World War (Manchester University Press, 2023) Dr. Paulin-Booth argues French political and intellectual figures differed in opinion as to whether a glorious future was within their grasp or perhaps the past promised salvation for the embattled French Third Republic. Professor Alexandra Paulin-Booth is a Postdoctoral Researcher & Academic Coordinator with Humboldt-Universität in Berlin. Dr. Paulin-Booth completed her Masters degrees at Durham University before studying for Ph.D. in History at the University of Oxford. She has also taught at Balliol College, Oxford and Durham University. Rick Northrop is an undergraduate student of History in Calgary, Alberta. Learn more about your ad choices.

Rev. Dr. Doris García-Rivera is former president of the Evangelical Seminary of Puerto Rico (ESPR). The private mainline Protestant seminary in Río Piedras was founded in 1919 by a group of theological schools and biblical institutes of the Protestant denominations that arrived on the island after the Spanish-American War. Nearly a century later, in 2014, Dr. García-Rivera became the first woman president in the history of ESPR. Today, she is Professor of Old Testament and Mission and Evangelism in the Certificate in Hispanic Ministries at Lexington Theological Seminary, where she also serves as Academic Coordinator for Pathways for Tomorrow Grant. In this episode of OP Talks, HTI Executive Director Rev. Joanne Rodríguez talks to Dr. García-Rivera about the women who inspire her and the experiences that shaped her. They discuss Dr. García-Rivera's commitment to service, including her experience of being a missionary in rural areas of Latin American, and how she braved long roads, floods, and landslides to reach those areas. Her experiences as a missionary helped prepare Dr. García-Rivera for the natural disasters to come in her native island of Puerto Rico. When Hurricane Maria hit in 2017, she did not think twice about getting into her Toyota Rav 4 and heading to the seminary, where Dr. García-Rivera had already been serving as president for three years. “Even in the midst of this situation,” she says “we really still have the grace of God and the mercy of God.” Dr. García-Rivera would bring the seminary back to life after the hurricane, collaborating with multiple institutions and volunteers, as well as promoting continuing education and improving the seminary's information technology infrastructure. “I understood being well meant that I must move forward to be the leader needed at that time.” Her spirited grandmother Monserrate influenced Dr. García-Rivera in big and small ways. “She was the main model for me because of her resilience,” says Dr. García-Rivera. After becoming a widow at a young age and losing a child at birth, Monserrate did everything in her power to give her remaining four children an education and to expand their possibilities. She washed and ironed shirts for a wealthy family and later worked in the kitchen of a public school until retirement. Dr. García-Rivera remembers her grandmother as always servicing others—with a plan in mind. “She was very small, but you could not dare defy her. She was a strong woman.”

 Rev. Caffie Risher is a Christian pastor and grief counselor who is deeply aware  of the presence of toxic theology in scripture and in the teachings of the church. She infuses her ministry for the bereaved with clear, critical thinking and a non-dogmatic approach to spirituality in the process of grief and mourning.  Caffie has early recollections of walking dirt roads in the south with her grandmother  Jessie Mae where they would take care of relatives and community members when there was a death in the family or if someone was sick and needed help.  Both her mother, Earlene Williams Risher, and grandmother taught her Christ-care, compassion, and pastoral concern for others at an early age. For Caffie, it is life's experiences, her own mortality, death of loved ones, personal loss, grief, educational experiences, and certifications that have all shaped and equipped her for this journey to minister hope and healing to those who are hurting. In 2002 she  was appointed to the position of “Minority Scholar” teaching public speaking and introduction to business courses at Passaic County Community College.  Eighteen years later she holds the position of a tenured Assistant Professor and Academic Coordinator of Public Speaking in the Fine and Performing Arts Department.  She teaches Public Speaking, Business Communication, Business Writing, and Death and Dying courses.  She also serves as chair of the Distinguished Lecturer Series and faculty advisor to the Power in Christ Christian Club who won the Emerging Club Award for excellent campus involvement and exceptional leadership.Prior to this, she held a post at New York Theological Seminary where she taught for several years in the Certificate of Ministry program.   For more on this topic, read this article: Does the Hebrew Bible Sanctify Mass Murder… and Disregard the Resulting Trauma?

In this episode, we learn more about OSU-Cascade's Kinesiology and Doctorate of Physical Therapy programs from Clinical Assistant Professor and Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education, Dr. Lisa Flexner, and upcoming Kinesiology graduate, Montana Kaiyala. Dr. Flexner talks about the importance of exploration and shares that she hopes students in the Kinesiology program gain, "... that curiosity, that willingness to explore and excitement to explore the human body and human movement and how that affects our communities...I hope that students see not just a career path, but a way that they can influence the world because I think that...if we understand humans well... then we can be the leaders in helping develop the communities we want to live in as well as being great kinesiologists, health care providers, physical education teachers, coaches, nurses - whatever pathway you move forward in, that understanding of the human is going to help you." Montana speaks to her personal experience at OSU-Cascades and how the Kinesiology program has helped her career goals by, "... networking during undergrad and finding opportunities and taking opportunities when they come my way." Dr. Flexner reminds us that every degree program can provide a student with a variety of transferrable skills, and Kinesiology is no different. "[There are] so many different pathways that you can be in. This is going to teach you skills that you can transfer to any different career you want. And that is exciting because you can study something you love, and you just have to make the case for why you're still the best person for the job because....you can say, I know humans! I know human psychology and I know human movement...and if we're going to work together, we're working with humans."

Suzanne Stoltz Suzanne Stoltz, a many-year participant at a MDA camp, charts the political underbelly of the disability summer camp experience. Summer camp for kids is usually perceived as a fun time where participants socialize, play, run, and swim. This includes summer camps dedicated to serving kids with the same or similar disabilities, like those sponsored by the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA).  But, there is more going on than camp songs and meal time hi jinks.  We look at the ways disability summer camps both support and dis-empower kids with disabilities. Suzanne Stolz, Ed.D. serves as the Academic Coordinator of the Online M.Ed. and as faculty for the program's Universal Design for Learning and Inclusive Education specialization, University of San Diego. Suzanne contributed an article about her experiences in an essay which appeared in Disability Politics in a Global Economy; Essays in Honor of Marta Russell, edited by Ravi Malhotra. Her essay was called “Disability Community, Policy, Care and Empowerment: ‘Growing Up' at MDA Camp and the Shaky Social Contract.” Produced and hosted by Eddie Ytuarte. The post Summer Camps for People with Disabilities appeared first on KPFA.

Seeking better working conditions, representatives of all Alberta's trade unions met, along with members of the recently (1909) formed United Farmers of Alberta (UFA), at a founding convention of the Alberta Federation of Labour (AFL) in Lethbridge on July 14-15, 1912. The convention was chaired by Donald McNabb, a Lethbridge coal miner who had served a brief term as Alberta's first independent labour MLA (supporting the governing Liberals). The AFL blossomed early and in 1926, they had several MLA's elected resulting in many improvements to Alberta labour laws and the Workman's Compensation Act, making Alberta a leader of such laws in Canada for several decades. Attacks on the Alberta labour movement since the latter part of the 1970's and particularly through the Ralph Klein years during the 1990's have arguably made life difficult for unions. The speaker will speculate on how unions can survive in a labour market where collective bargaining is under threat in Alberta and generally throughout North America. Will the many achievements labour has gained over the past 100 years continue to be at risk? Speaker: Winston Gereluk Winston Gereluk worked for the Alberta Federation of Labour and the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees in Canada in the areas of research, education and public relations for over 25 years. In 1999, he moved to Athabasca University, where he served as Academic Coordinator for Industrial Relations & Human Resources programs until his retirement in 2009. Winston has represented the international trade union movement at United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development and currently represents them on a Stakeholder Council of the Global Reporting Initiative, which meets in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Gereluk has a Masters Degree in Educational Philosophy and is a member of the Alberta Labour History Institute, Greenpeace and the editorial board of Athabasca University Press. He has written articles and chapters on labour and the environment, industrial relations and sustainable development for a number of periodicals and textbook publishers. Winston currently also serves as Chair of Project 2012 and Coordinator of the Alberta Federation of Labour's Centennial Celebration.
