Have you ever taken a quiz to know where you fall on the political compass? Are you liberal, conservative, authoritarian, or libertarian? Thankfully there are more options than those. Today I talk about how we can know where we call on the spectrum and how that knowledge can better help me to love my neighbor.  P.S. In this episode I said that Noah Millman's article came out on the "League of Ordinary Gentlemen" blog. That is incorrect. It was on the now defunct "American Scene" website, which is available thanks to the reliable Wayback Machine.  Articles mentioned Notes Towards a New Political Taxonomy - Noah Millman Tanner Greer's Summary of Millman's article A Better Model of Political Categories - N.S.

To say that he has played with and against the best American players in the history of the sport would be an understatement.

Welcome to Episode 78. Today’s offering dips back to March 17th and 18th, 1996. Based on birds, callers and guests in this installment, I have titled it: Mystery and Magic The producers are Mike Cannon and Tom Howie. We begin with Norm riffing on a few subjects. I think we have a moment here where Norm is waiting for calls and is just going through news and info. I found it especially comforting just listening to Norm shuffle papers and tell us little stories and factoids from the wires. Simply soothing. St. Patrick’s Day, birds migrating, the Swallows returning to Capistrano and Motown returning to Detroit are talked about here. We take some very interesting calls: Ruth Clennott from Boston gives us her review of “Mr. Holland’s Opus” Now Norm, you see, has not been able to see many movies as he’s an advisor to the President as well as the State Dept and does a lot of traveling around the world putting things in order. She talks about Community Auditions where she was the auditioner for 25 years! Norm helps clears things up when Ruth inquires about someone featured in the movie. She talks about Riverdance. Their banter closes with a job offer for Ruth. The next call is from June in Brookline – Sidewalk game reporter and Observer of the American Scene. I will not give any more away as this is quite the call and I swear Norm is trying not to break out laughing through most of it. After the call we only hear the first few words of a commercial but it is so appropriate. Listen closely as it goes by quickly. We now hear from Sarah, I believe, and learn about schlemiels and schlimazels and more Yiddish expressions. Marylou from Lowell – 1st time caller and thrilled to talk to Norm. We learn of Lord Briscoe, the Jewish man with the Irish brogue. Next up is Don with lots of talk about trains. We get a great call from John in Allentown, PA – Lover of old-time radio. This being a subject right up Norm’s alley, he dives into it and wishes radio was like that again. John agrees and says it is with the DBG! That concludes our March 17th broadcast. We now cut to March 18th. Norm teases the upcoming guests: Steve Daly author of “Toy Story: The Art and Making of the Animated Film.” Charles Solomon, animation historian, author of “The Disney That Never Was.” Before that we are joined by…Lennie Sogoloff from Lennie’s on the Turnpike! A few great stories are shared. Lennie driving down Morrissey Blvd with an artist heading over to Norm’s show in the early am hours to hang out. Count Basie, The Turnpike Club, Norm’s unpaid bar tab and more. Lennie, still promoting jazz off and on, had something coming up with Grover Mitchell leading the Count Basie Band. They were going to be appearing at the Temple Emmanuel in Marblehead. There’ll be Dancing and refreshments – Don’t miss it! Our next guest who had no problem holding while the jazz talk was going on because he’s a jazz fan was Steve Daly, staff writer for Entertainment Weekly and co-author of “Toy Story: The Art and Making of the Animated Film.” A book I believe I still have here in the Vault. Tons of interesting info on the whole process and story! We then turn to the next guest: Charles Solomon, author of “The Disney That Never Was.” There’s only about 10 minutes of the interview here and that’s a shame, but it is still worth a listen! Episode 78: Mystery and Magic begins now. Email the show: normnathanvos@gmail.com

“There is no doubt that racism is real and has negative consequences for people's lives,” Adolph Reed Jr. and Touré F. Reed note in the abstract to their article “The Evolution of ‘Race' and Racial Justice under Neoliberalism.” “This is why we have consistently argued for the continued value of anti-discrimination policies. But race reductionism's insistence on uncoupling disparities from political economy lends itself to individualist reforms (anti-racism training and swelling the ranks of black capitalists) as responses to structural ailments. We must reject race-reductionist analyses and refuse to accommodate charges that a left focused first and foremost on critique of and challenge to capitalist political economy as such, with its corrosive human consequences, is unacceptably ‘class reductionist.'”What is race reductionism and how does it close off possibilities for liberational politics? How is it that we've come to have such a restrictive understanding of race, culture, identity, and “authenticity” today? How have the political, economic, and ideological changes to society that comprise what we call neoliberalism created a situation where discussions of race and racism are divorced from analyses of class and “capitalist political economy”?As part of a new collaboration between The Real News Network and the podcast THIS IS REVOLUTION, co-hosts Jason Myles and Pascal Robert speak with scholar and activist Adolph Reed Jr. about the genealogy of American conceptions of race and racism, and about the folly of fighting neoliberalism on neoliberalism's own terms. Adolph Reed Jr. is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania, a longtime activist, scholar, and commentator, and the author of numerous books, including: Class Notes: Posing as Politics and Other Thoughts on the American Scene; Stirrings in the Jug: Black Politics in the Post-Segregation Era; and The Jesse Jackson Phenomenon: The Crisis of Purpose in Afro-American Politics.Read the transcript of this interview: https://therealnews.com/when-identity-becomes-a-prison-there-can-be-no-liberational-politicsPre-Production/Studio: Jason MylesPost Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-podSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/newsletter-podLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

Extended Reed interview here (https://www.patreon.com/posts/51203261) Seattle City Council woman Kshama Sawant (https://www.kshamasolidarity.org/​) talks about her resolution calling on the Biden administration to support patent waivers for U.S.-produced vaccines that would allow facilities in other countries to begin manufacturing generic vaccines based on Pfizer and Moderna's formulas. Sawant also discusses the Right Wing recall campaign being launched against her. Dr. Adolph Reed, professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania, political scientist, and editor of Nonsite (https://nonsite.org/​​), talks about identity politics, the NGO-ization of Black Lives Matter, and the state of The Left.

She has been a consistent advocate of raising taxes on the wealthy, expanding city services for the city's workers and for environmental rights and Palestinian human rights. She is facing a right wing recall in retaliation for spearheading victories like $15 minimum wage and the Amazon Tax and supporting Black Lives Matter.

Political Scientist Adolph Reed, Jr. has been writing about Black politics and Black political thought for over four decades. Having been an activist in the 60s as well as a long time labor organizer, his scholarship has persistently challenged orthodox thinking regarding Black political activity. Some of his classic works such as "Class Notes: Posing as Politics and Other Thoughts on the American Scene," and "Stirrings in the Jug: Black Politics in the Post Segregation Era," have set the standard for discussing the contemporary realities of Black political life. Today we will inquire of Adolph Reed, Jr., "Does Black Politics Work for Black People, and if not why?" You can find much of Dr. Reed's work here: https://muckrack.com/adolph-reed/arti...​   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out. We appreciate each and everyone of you.

Stuck at home during this pandemic looking for something fun to do? Look no further than the National Museum of American History's Photographic History Collection and the Smithsonian Learning Lab.  The Photographic History Collection (PHC) represents the history of the medium of photography from the daguerreotype era to the present.  In numbers that adds up to over 2000 identified photographers and studios, about 200,000 photographs, and about 15,000 cameras, pieces of apparatus, studio equipment. You can search, share and save items you find.  It's a research rabbit hole. I spent hours looking for items the first time I went on the site.  One of my favorites is an early daguerreotype of a group standing on the banks of Niagara Falls without safety precautions. My guest has spent the last several months organizing digitized images into virtual collections with the Smithsonian Learning Lab, an online resource.  It's possible to create your own “collection” of images for research.  Teachers can create modules their students can use too. The last time I searched the Smithsonian collection it was overwhelming. Thanks to Shannon, I can find what I need and save it for next time. Here's one really cool thing. Each image has a unique permanent URL meaning you can use it and locate the image later. If you've seen a photo exhibit at the National Museum of American History then likely Shannon had something to do with it. Related Episodes:Episode 48: Finding Photos of Your AncestorsLinks:Smithsonian Learning LabSign up for my newsletter.Watch my YouTube Channel.Like the Photo Detective Facebook Page so you get notified of my Facebook Live videos.Need help organizing your photos?

- Season 2, Episode 7 - The American Painters of the Great Depression: The Example of Thomas Donnelly                     (Thesis written by Cathy Mahon and narrated by Stephen Sniffin)Thomas Donnelly was born of Irish descent on February 25th 1893 and grew up in Washington D.C where he obtained his bachelor's degree from the Corcoran School of Art. In 1915, he moved to New York City to launch his career as an artist. He studied at the Art Students League of NY, and later on became a member of the Board. In 1917, Donnelly was drafted to the armed services under the Artists of the War Commando and joined World War I until the armistice. Back in NY, Donnelly rapidly became a well-known regionalist artist among the art connoisseurs of the city for his landscapes, coastal scenes, portraits and still life paintings. He was exhibited in museums, fairs and cultural events, all around the city. His responsibility as a painter was to pay tribute to nature and to bring the rural neighbourhoods into the cities. On a summer day of 1923, the artist drove through Westchester County; he stopped near a Welcome to Valhalla sign, he carefully sharpened his lithographic crayons and slowly immortalized the village on a piece of paper. On this very same day, Thomas Donnelly fell in love with the little village of Valhalla. Today, his sketch Overlooking Valhalla is part of the Whitney Museum of American Art's permanent collections. In 1925, Thomas met Eve Kollgen, a 23-year old young English lady aspiring to become an artist. After dating for a few months, they got married and built their home in Valhalla. The four-bedroom house was located less than an hour away from NY, right next to the dam, on 44 Howard Avenue. They built it big enough to welcome a family. Donnelly had it all planned; he would commute to the city for his exhibits, would come home each night to his family, and would continue painting the countryside. Little did the know that he had invested in a house that would soon become a financial burden. The Roaring 20s were about to come to an end and the stock market was about to crash. On 29 October 1929, the biggest financial crisis in US history abruptly hit the country, driving Donnelly's artwork to remain unsold, his bills to accumulate, and his quality of life to collapse. Because of the depression, Donnelly's clients could no longer pay for his artwork. Within a few months, the rising star became a distant celebrity, with scarcer visits to NY City, and with exhibits more locally based. In June 1934, Donnelly wrote a desperate letter to Forbes Watson, the director in charge of the art program of the Works Progress Administration and to President Roosevelt himself, begging them to implement a strong Federal project that would replace the local programs, and would truly help the struggling artists. His letters did not remain unread, and when the Federal Art Project of the Work Progress Administration was finally launched in August 1935, Thomas Donnelly immediately became a proud federal employee. For $40 a month, his job was to embellish America and paint “the American Scene” on public buildings. On September 16th 1948, Eve, Thomas Donnelly's beloved bride of 22 years, died at the early age of 45 years old, leaving the artist devastated. From then on, he refused all invitations from the major institutions and became a part-time schoolteacher in Valhalla public school and a jury in the local art contests. He finally remarried 18 years later. But at last, on April 24th 1971, after a long and full life, Thomas Donnelly, the World War I veteran, the talented New Yorker, the artist of the Great Depression, and the local resident of Valhalla, died peacefully at the age of 78 years old in his home.

Victoria Chick, New Mexico-based figurative contemporary artist and early 19th/20th century print collector, talks about American scene painter Georges Schreiber (1904-1977). Originally from Belgium, Schreiber became a United States citizen in 1928. For 3 years, beginning in 1936, he made trips touring the U.S painting and sketching Americans in all the states. He exhibited these paintings, called “Panorama of America”, at the Associated American Artists gallery. His show was so successful that all the works were sold before the show even opened. He was accepted into exhibitions at major museums during this period of the ‘30s and ‘40s when American Scene Painting and Regionalism were popular. Pictured lithograph: "Going Home", 1945.
