This week I dive into some of the work Freud wrote later in his life, particularly a book called Civilization and its Discontents published in 1930. Freud believed that the evolutionary process we can use to trace the changes humans have gone through over the centuries can also explain why culture itself has evolved as it has. He basically thinks we are all self-deceiving, chronically unfulfilled and unsatisfied bots programmed to lie to ourselves above all else, and to avoid feeling guilt or shame based on unavoidable urges we all have by lying to ourselves and everyone else about those urges existing. Instead we redirect them. Killing someone in revenge becomes laser tag this weekend. Driving 100mph like an asshole to work everyday becomes gokarts and beers on Friday night. Cheating with the neighbor becomes an Only Fans subscription or a weekend at a swinger's convention. In this episode I cover morality, guilt, shame, intoxication, sublimation, civilization, and Freud's views on why all of these things exist in the human species. Support the show
Þóra Rós Guðbjartsdóttir dansari og jógakennari lærði listdans í Mexíkó og er núna á skjám landsmanna þar sem hún kennir börnum jóga í gegnum þættina Ævintýrajóga. Í Mexíkó ferðaðist hún um með danshópum og sýndi dans en fann sig svo betur í jógafræðunum og er með ýmis plön í farvatninu og ekki bara fyrir börn. Þóra kom til okkar í dag. Eins og undanfarna mánudaga kom Georg Lúðvíksson til okkar í dag í það sem við köllum fjármálin á mannamáli og í dag fór hann aðeins með okkur yfir lífeyrismálin. Þau eru mikilvæg og ekki því fyrr sem maður hugsar um þau og kynnir sér þau, því betra. Georg fór betur yfir lífeyrismálin í þættinum. Lesandi vikunnar í Mannlega þættinum í þetta sinn var svo Bergdís Júlía Jóhannsdóttir, leikkona, leikstjóri og leiklistarkennari, en hún skrifaði, ásamt Arnari Haukssyni, útvarpsleikritið Sorrí hvað ég svara seint, sem var flutt um páskana í útvarpinu og hægt er að hlusta á í spilara RÚV. Við fáum hana aðeins til að segja okkur frá því og svo auðvitað líka frá þeim bókum sem hún hefur verið að lesa undanfarið og hvaða bækur og höfundar hafa haft mest áhrif á hana í gegnum tíðina. Bergdís talaði um eftirfarandi bækur og höfunda: Systir mín, raðmorðinginn e. Oyinkan Braithwaite Hælið e. Emil Hjörvar Petersen Uncut Funk e.

Questo mese vi proponiamo un'intervista davvero intensa e fiorente che abbiamo avuto il piacere di avere insieme a Vanessa Roghi, storica, scrittrice, transfemminista conosciuta attraverso una presentazione che abbiamo mediato e anche attraverso la lettura di "La parola femminista", saggio edito da Mondadori per la collana "Strade blu", che è il testo che vi proponiamo oggi. Un libro che attraverso una storia politica personale, si fa collettivo e anche storicamente plurale. Vanessa ha la straordinaria capacità di rendere fruibili e semplici concetti molto complessi. Probabuilmente, ci ha spiegato, è stato il suo percorso professionale a facilitare questa caratteristica, e mentre lo diceva ci ha citato Gianni Rodari. Innamorarsi è facile, ascoltarla fa bene al cuore quindi buon ascolto. Per sostenere il progetto seguici su instagram!

The contemporary era of black intellectual thought 1975 to the present is characterized by a growth in black feminist thought, an expansion of rainbow coalitions by prominent black leaders, an explosion of the black middle class and a black bourgeoisie, and an extension of black political, social, and cultural ideas by influential scholars and academics. In opposition to the New Left Movement, there was a significant rise in conservatism not just in America but throughout the globe. This led to a drastic decrease in liberal welfare programs as well as a decrease in the practical reliance on socialism: Booker T. Washington's ideology specifically concerning education became the norm in the contemporary era. This period also witnessed the rise of the New Jim Crow: a system of mass incarceration and control of millions of primarily poor black and brown people as evidenced by millions of dollars governmental investment in for-profit prisons throughout America. The eventual election of President Barack Obama was not only a call to transcend the partisan bickering of Washington, but his presidency stood as a symbol of black excellence against traditional social hierarchies of white supremacy. The feminist Barbara Smith at the 1980 Combahee River Collective argues that world changing revolution don't have to just redistribute resources, but they also must be pro-feminist and antiracist to be comprehensive enough to include the most historically marginalized people in the modern era, black women. Many feminist and male freedom fighters such as the black panthers, were political prisoners who have garnered immense support for freedom in the modern era. Furthermore, the seminal first black mayor of Chicago Harold Washington through his reform of the segregated city revealed its racist structure and sought to undermine it. Intellectual feminists such as Audre Lorde indicated the necessity of identifying the elements of the oppressor in the oppressed, while Dr. Bell Hooks sought to illustrate the hierarchies of race, class, and gender and how we can overcome them. This era also saw massive opposition to the South African Apartheid state that lasted for four decades by such black icons such as Randall Robinson and Reverend Jesse Jackson. Jesse Jackson's rainbow coalition from his run for presidency in the mid 1980s would foreshadow the rise of Barack Obama to the presidency in 2008, 20 years later. However, education perspectives would transform more than politics. Academic scholars would shift the consciousness of minority student towards a greater appreciation of education by moving away from Eurocentric models of learning. What scholars like Dr. West and politicians like President Obama would recognize is that political advancement is more seated in understanding the need for hope, meaning, and purpose rather than identifying elements of subjugation against black America. These ideas would be drawn from many black figures of the past such as academics like W.E.B. Du Bois and social reformers like Dr. King and President Abraham Lincoln.

From hoodies to hip-hop, from cultural influence to corporate boardrooms—your identity is your brand's greatest asset. In this Masterclass episode, Evante Daniels returns to unpack the power of authenticity in branding and how embracing your unique identity can translate into profitability. We explore the psychology behind brand confidence, the impact of personal style in professional spaces, and why cultural IP is one of the most undervalued assets in business.But here's the truth—if you don't tie your branding and positioning to ROI, the market won't either. Evante breaks down why companies cut diversity initiatives, why cultural branding often gets overlooked, and how Black entrepreneurs can strategically position themselves to not just be seen, but to drive revenue and business growth. It's not just about showing up—it's about making sure your presence is tied to measurable impact, market share, and long-term brand equity.We also break down real-world examples of cultural branding done right—from hip-hop moguls to streetwear legends—and how businesses can leverage their narratives to elevate influence, establish credibility, and turn cultural capital into actual capital.Whether you're a creator, executive, or entrepreneur, this conversation will challenge you to rethink your brand positioning, embrace your full identity, and ensure your brand isn't just culturally relevant—but financially powerful.Tap in for Part 3 of this powerful Masterclass with Evante Daniels!

Hey well-read baddies! This week we're back with another #Black365 minisode and are joined by Cecily (@CecilyAlexa)—singer, songwriter, and one of the 13,000 members of the recording academy. The Washington, DC native has a rich, soothing sound rooted in mid-century Soul and Jazz. Often drawing comparisons to Minnie Riperton and Amel Larrieux, her music is imbued with a unique sensuality that informs not only her vocal approach, but also her self-reflecting lyrics. Cecily has been heralded for her poetic writing style. Grounded in an easy vulnerability, her lyrics speak of deep lessons around self-acceptance, freedom, community and love. We dive into her creative process, how All About Love by Bell Hooks shaped her latest project, and why music is basically a spell (so choose your bops wisely). 01:52 Introduction and Shout Out Corner 3:42 Coffee Break 31:03 Get into the Guest Books mentioned and recs- https://bookshop.org/shop/shewellread We can't wait to hear from you! :) Please send any questions or comments about this episode to shewellread@gmail.com or use the form at the bottom of the SWR Podcast page: https://www.shewellread.com/contact OR leave us a Voice Note at https://www.speakpipe.com/shewellread Follow SHE WELL READ!

Listen to a conversation with pianist Elham Fanoos of the Fanoos Ensemble, a unique family group that blends the folk and popular music of Afghanistan with Western classical instrumentation. The Fanoos Ensemble will be performing in Central Indiana on January 25. Elham Fanoos was born in Afghanistan in 1997. During that time, music was banned under Taliban rule. But Elham's father, Ahmad Fanoos, a well-known singer and television personality in Afghanistan, nurtured his son's musical talent. Elham started out on the tabla drum but later switched to the piano after watching YouTube videos of the classical music legend Vladimir Horowitz. Elham recently released his debut album with the Fanoos Ensemble, titled Echoes of Afghanistan. Also, hear a conversation with vocalist and songwriter Lindsay Littrell. Lindsay is the creative force behind LITTRELL, an Indianapolis-based music duo formed with the multi-instrumentalist and engineer Garrett Langebartels. LITTRELL's debut album Public Love was released last year. The album features a distinctive blend of dark pop, alt-rock, and trip-hop music, along with conceptual elements inspired by activist Cornell West and writer Bell Hooks.
Oggi vi parliamo di un libro celeberrimo di un'autrice, teorica e attivista statunitense altrettanto famosa, conosciuta per il suo lavoro sui temi del genere, della razza e della classe. Parliamo di bell hooks e del suo testo "Tutto sull'amore". Questo testo, seppure un po' “datato” perché pubblicato per la prima volta in Italia nel 2003 e quindi ancora tendenzialmente binario e coppiacentrico , è ancora oggi estremamente rilevante in un'epoca in cui l'amore viene spesso definito una frivolezza da romantic* e deboli di cuore, in una società iper produttiva in cui l'unico vero scopo è concentrarsi su se stess* per il proprio successo personale. bell hooks ci invita a riflettere su come possiamo vivere l'amore come un atto politico, collettivo e trasformativo. Ci invita a comprendere l'amore come una pratica che ha il potere di cambiare noi stess* e la società in cui viviamo, mette in luce il contrasto tra amore romantico e amore collettivo, e anche come la società patriarcale influenzi la nostra capacità di amare liberamente e autenticamente.Per sostenere il progetto seguici su instagram!

Chapter 1:Summary of The Will to Change"The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love" by bell hooks is a profound exploration of masculinity and the ways in which societal constructs affect men's emotional lives. In this book, hooks addresses the crisis of masculinity, emphasizing the detrimental effects of patriarchal culture on men, women, and society as a whole.Key themes include:1. Redefining Masculinity: hooks argues that traditional definitions of masculinity are harmful. She advocates for a redefinition that allows men to embrace vulnerability, emotional expression, and love without fear or shame.2. Emotional Suppression: The book discusses how patriarchal norms encourage men to suppress their feelings and how this leads to emotional pain and relational dysfunction. hooks emphasizes the importance of emotional honesty and connection.3. Love as Redemption: love is presented as a powerful force that can lead to healing and transformation for men. hooks argues that understanding love can help men break free from societal limitations and foster healthier relationships.4. The Role of Women: hooks highlights the ways in which women can help in this transformation by encouraging men to embrace a fuller range of emotions and supporting their journey toward redefining masculinity.5. Cultural Critique: Throughout the book, hooks critiques the influences of media, culture, and socialization in shaping men's identities and behaviors. She calls for collective efforts to change the narratives around masculinity.Overall, "The Will to Change" is a call to action for both men and women to engage in conversations about gender and to work towards a healthier, more loving understanding of masculinity that benefits everyone in society.Chapter 2:The Theme of The Will to Change"The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love" by bell hooks is a significant work that addresses the complexities of masculinity, the impact of patriarchy, and the necessity for emotional growth and love in men's lives. Here are some key plot points, character developments, and thematic ideas within the book: Key Plot Points:1. Critique of Patriarchy: hooks examines how patriarchal structures negatively affect men, arguing that they limit emotional expression and relational capacities.

Discussion on Emotional Health: The author delves into how emotional repression leads to various issues in men's lives, including violence, isolation, and the inability to form deep connections.4. The Role of Fathers: hooks reflects on father-son relationships and how fathers can either perpetuate harmful masculine norms or serve as role models for emotional intelligence and love.5. Redefining Masculinity: The narrative encourages men to challenge traditional concepts of masculinity and embrace more compassionate and loving identities that foster connection rather than competition. Character Development:While the book doesn't follow a traditional narrative with specific characters, it does present archetypes representing various forms of masculinity and the struggles that come with them. These include:- The Traditional Man: Embodying traits that align with patriarchal expectations—stoic, aggressive, emotionally distant.- The Evolving Man: A man who is beginning to understand and challenge the limitations of traditional masculinity, seeking connection and emotional health.- The Supportive Father/Figures: Men who model healthy emotional...

This week, we're having a herstory moment! Professor and Chair of the Africana Studies Department at Wellesley College Dr. Kellie Carter Jackson joins the show this week to talk Black abolitionists and resistance. We get to know civil rights leader Mabel Williams, spouse and partner of Robert F. Williams, and how she and her husband mobilized Black folks to take up arms and defend themselves in the face of extreme racism in the sixties. We start off with a moment for the cover of Professor Carter Jackson's forthcoming book We Refuse. It features Soldier of Love, not Sade's chart topper, but the beautiful and poignant painting by Brooklyn-based artist Taha Clayton.Disclaimer: While we're happy that gun violence has overall decreased in the United States, it continues to be troubling. We're conscious of how intense gun debates can get and want to stress that this conversation explores how communities took up arms in self-defense against lethal racism. We are not advocating for general gun violence.Remoy introduces Mabel and Robert Williams via their infamous black and white Bonnie and Clyde photo.Prof Carter Jackson breaks down the Williams' approach to self-defense. Robert F. Williams slept with a gun under his pillow to be ready to defend himself for the KKK's night rides: violent runs where Klan member went into Black communities, attacked folks and raided homes.Our guest stresses that though someone likeDr. Martin Luther King preached nonviolence and preferred it, he kept an arsenal of weapons in his home to be ready for self-defense against racist assailants. He'd previously been attacked and firebombed and became ready.The Kissing Case in Monroe, NC is a turning point for the Williamses.In 1958, James Thompson and David Simpson are respectively 9 and 7 years of age. They are playing in the neighborhood when one of the white girls kisses each of them on this cheek. This instance erupts into these young Black boys being accused of rape and arrested. They are beaten and isolated from their parents.Carter Jackson lends context for how terrifying this situation was for these young boys in a warzone-like environment and especially at that age.Remoy shares a few clips from an Oprah WInfrey Show interview in which James Thompson and David Simpson, now adults, recount the horrifying experience.Mabel and Robert make plans to defend their community by mobilizing their community into a rifle club including 60 members of all genders. They became NRA members.Mabel even protected her home from police officers coming into their home without a warrant.Carter Jackson stressed the importance of people knowing the law and arming themselves with that knowledge.Swimming pools were the sight of a lot of child drownings.Remoy shares a clip of Mabel recounting how she and Robert advocated for Black children to use pools safely.While Robert still erred on the side of nonviolent resistance, Mabel was adamant that not using guns for defense was akin to suicide. She even let her sons participate in the resistance, which highlights an important point about how violence and protection aren't as strictly masculine as we sometimes think of them as.Carter Jackson emphasizes Black women's role in community protection. The lack of protection they've historically received has made rise to the occasion of being their own protectors and protectors of the community.[Black women] have never been allowed to occupy the space of the damsel in distress. They've always been seen as undeserving of protection.Mabel knew how the presence of guns was enough to deter potential violence. And she was right. Violence severely deescalated.Carter Jackson stresses the importance of Mabel and Robert's partnership because Robert tends to get all the credit for these efforts.Remoy shares a clip of Mabel describing how she didn't necessarily want the credit but just wanted to do the work.Carter Jackson and Samantha have a moment about the importance of highlighting all the people in the resistance and give credit where it's due. Black women have always been soldiers in the resistance and that should be common knowledge.Racism is not the only thing folks were fighting. Violent sexism must also be challenged and that calls for women's leadership.Carter Jackson brings up Rosa Parks's home being a fortress of guns. Fannie Lou Hammer was also ready to use violent force to defend herself.Black woman in general were aware of how powerful guns were even if they didn't shout it from the rooftops. The gun was enough to make their position known.In our Five Questions segment, Professor Kellie Carter Jackson distills women's anger and they can use it as a driving force. Our guest shares how anger is a big driving force for a lot of her work.She stresses the importance of reparations, not just monetarily, but how do we repair the hurt and destabilization Black communities have endured?Carter Jackson breaks down how she arrived at the title of her forthcoming book, We Refuse.Refusal is the why of resistance.bell hooks has a famous quote about Black men and white women being one stage away from the ultimate social power: white men's power.Samantha asks how Black men and masculine people can champion partnership and women's leadership in the resistance. Carter Jackson delivers a textbook-worthy answer. (48:02)We close out with a great note on how to get to liberation. Dr. Carter Jackson stresses how binaries and individualism pigeon-hole us away from collective freedom. She envisions how to move past that. Thanks for listening!

This week Sara brings us one of her personal heroes and feminist icons, the incomparable and prolific - bell hooks! Growing up a segregated Kentucky, Gloria Jean Watkins witnessed firsthand the wake of destruction wreaked by what she would later dub the Imperialist-White-Supremacist-Capitalist-Patriarchy. She spent the rest of her life in a fight against it as a writer, teacher, scholar, intellectual, cultural critic and author, and in Sara's opinion, is the the architect of a modern feminism that is both transformative and accessible to all. — A Broad is a woman who lives by her own rules.

Globally, many individuals grapple with oppressive caste structures that condemn them to lives marked by degradation, oppression, and poverty. These enduring systems of racial, religious, and color discrimination remain prevalent. For instance, in India, the Dalit community (the lowest class of people) continues to battle for the same rights that Black Americans secured half a century ago.Join us today as we spotlight Kamna Singh, a champion of the underrepresented in India who has defied all the cultural limitations to become a Ph.D. student in a country where this is a monumental and challenging fete. Her area of study is Black women writers in America. She uses the inspiration of Bell Hooks, Alice Walker, and Toni Morrison to help her encourage Indian women to battle for their rights in the world's largest Democracy.
Episode Summary:Liberation theology is a theological movement that emerged primarily in Latin America in the late 20th century, although its principles and ideas have influenced theological discourse worldwide for millennia. It seeks to address the social, economic, sexual, gendered, and political oppression experienced by marginalized and disadvantaged individuals and communities. Liberation theology actually dates all the way back to the Old Testament prophets, and can be witnessed in almost every spiritual tradition.At its core, liberation theology emphasizes the gospel's message of liberation and justice for the oppressed and marginalized. It announces God's preferential treatment of the poor, marginalized, and oppressed. God loves the margins because God was marginalized. It was Jesus' second-rate existence that allowed him to see and feel what those at the center of society were sheltered from and thus callously indifferent to. Seeking liberation and justice is the sine qua non of Christian discipleship. Standing in solidarity with the oppressed is one of the more practical ways to live out our faith in a cruel world.People on the periphery, those victims of our forced conformity, have the ‘eyes to see' what many of us at the center simply cannot see without their guidance. “To be in the margin is to be part of the whole but outside the main body,” writes Bell Hooks. Which gives those on the outside a different vantage point, as well as the power to create change. Today, we're having a conversation about change, injustice, liberation, and salvation and I can think of no one more perfect to address these issues than Kalie May Hargrove from The Center For Prophetic Imagination.In this episode we'll address:The systematic rights violations LGBTQIA students face at Christian collegesWhy liberation is more biblical than eternal salvationWhat you can do to work for justice in your communityHow to stand against the genocide in GazaSubverting the empires we find ourselves living in and benefiting fromBio:Kalie May Hargrove (she/her) is a writer, theologian, and activist. She lives in the greater-Atlanta area with her partner and two kids. Kalie has been part of LGBTQ+ activism bringing awareness of the legalized discrimination queer and trans students face at religious universities. She received her Master of Divinity from United Theological Seminary of Twin Cities. Kalie is Director of Digital Outreach at the Center for Prophetic Imagination, which seeks to connect spirituality with intersectional social justice in our world.Please follow us on social media (use the buttons below) and help us get the word out!

SPECIAL INVITE: Tuesday, April 9, at 7pm Eastern join us for our Season Premiere Watch Party for our first episode as Laura Flanders & Friends featuring Angela Davis; then join Laura afterwards to discuss the interview and share your thoughts. Subscribe to our newsletter for all the details at LauraFlanders.orgWith so many urgent crises tugging at our hearts, from war, to climate, to discontent and violence, people want to know: How do we set priorities and do the right thing, especially as that relates to building a better world, and to an election that seems both problematic and the most important of our time? If anyone can ground us thoughtfully in this moment, with all of its challenges and all its potential, it's renowned professor, activist, scholar and writer Angela Davis. In her writing, lecturing and many decades of activism, Davis has shown a unique ability to pull competing struggles into a single story — a story of systems and power. In this special first episode of "Laura Flanders & Friends" (formerly, The Laura Flanders Show), Laura is joined by Angela Davis, a leading voice in the movement for abolition and feminism who has lots to share about her evolution and how decades of activism are coming together in this moment. From Palestine to elections, to our carceral state and collective liberation, this kickoff conversation is packed with Davis' insight and the teachings from her latest book “Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises, Vol. 1”. What has Davis learned in her 80 years as a freedom fighter? All that, plus a commentary from Laura on the words of the late poet and essayist June Jordan, who writes, “I was born a Black woman/and now/I am become a Palestinian.”“When vast numbers of people come together to defend a vision of the future that they would like to see, this is how change happens. It doesn't happen because we elect a particular person to office.” - Angela Y. Davis“[In] Birmingham, Jewish people were the very first white people to support the struggle against racism . . . Here in the US and in other parts of the world, it's actually Jewish people, young Jewish people who are in the forefront of the struggle against Zionism.” - Angela Y. DavisGuest: Angela Y.

In this episode of One Symphony, host Devin Patrick Hughes welcomes rising star composer, performer, and educator Brittany Green to discuss her boundary-pushing work and perspective on the future of classical music in the 21st century. Green, who started out in music education before pivoting to composition in her 20s, brings a multifaceted approach to her practice. Through projects like the Young Composers Project, she blends her interests in composing and teaching, working with K-5 students to collaboratively create music using tools like Max MSP. During the pandemic shutdowns, Green delved further into live electronics and narration as a form of performance, drawing inspiration from artists in the black arts and poetry space to bring fresh aesthetics to her classical compositions. A major theme in Green's music is the "construction, displacement and rupturing of systems." She sees composers throughout history, from Beethoven onwards, as mold-breakers who redefined expectations. Green explores concepts like building and dismantling rhythmic structures, and cutting through established textures and timbres, to allow new musical ideas to emerge from the breakage and slippage. Pieces like "Against Sharp" express this through incessant repeated notes that slowly erode into legato lines and expanded harmonic material. Intellectually, Green relates this to the ideas of cultural scholars like Bell Hooks and José Muñoz around disrupting systems of domination from the margins. When it comes to expanding classical music's reach, Green emphasized the importance of authentic community engagement. Through her "community engaged residencies" with orchestras around the country, she aims to have genuine dialogue with communities about their interests and needs, rather than just bestowing a pre-packaged experience upon them. Finding collaborators within communities and among outside artists doing impactful work elsewhere allows for rich cross-pollination of ideas. Regional orchestras especially are well-positioned to connect with local institutions and build meaningful, reverberating programming. Green sees opportunities to lead audiences to appreciate new musical experiences they "don't know they don't know." While some may assume anything written recently is inaccessibly avant-garde, the reality is new classical music spans a wide range of genres and aesthetics. With creative programming that makes unexpected connections between old and new works, and provides helpful context, orchestras can open listeners' minds and excite their curiosity to discover fresh voices. Even as artificial intelligence emerges as a tool for music creation, Green believes the most vital qualities of composition will remain the domain of humans. AI may be able to generate music that is theoretically "correct," but it is the element of surprise, of flouting expectations in ways only a human can anticipate, that makes music truly interesting. Moreover, the physically and emotionally resonant experience of making and sharing live music, and literally feeling sound together in community, is not something AI can replicate. Incorporating interdisciplinary storytelling is another way Green seeks to connect on a deep level. Her piece "Garden On Green Street" features recorded interviews with her mother and aunt musically manipulated to form an intergenerational dialogue with ancestors. The multimedia work "Thresh and Hold" transforms sounds like chains and rocks collected from her family's land into instruments channeling memories of slavery and freedom. Green's compositions often explore themes of constructing, displacing, and disrupting systems. Drawing inspiration from composers throughout history who defied conventions, she employs techniques like developing and dismantling rhythmic structures, and allowing new musical ideas to emerge from ruptured textures and timbres. Works such as "Against Sharp" exemplify this approach, while engaging with cultural theories around subverting dominant paradigms from the margins. As Green eloquently stated, "I find a lot of excitement in that for me, that unfolds in looking at rhythmic structures that I can build over time and then slowly dismantle or maybe quickly dismantle and completely break and explore what music comes out of that breakage in that slippage of rupture."

February is black history month, an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans, and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history and, importantly, in the women's equality movement. African American women have too often been overlooked in the history of our fight for gender equity. This episode honors and quotes many brilliant, brave, black women who fought to create a fairer and more equitable world. These words have tremendous power and impact including the important work of Kimberlé Crenshaw who coined the phrase intersectionality. Crenshaw simply and poignantly said, "If we aren't intersectional, some of us, the most vulnerable, are going to fall through the cracks." This is at the heart of Together We Rise, bringing to the forefront that we must consider all women when we talk about advancing women. As Audra Lord said, “I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.” #tunein and celebrate #blackhistorymonth and honor the insights of so many brilliant black women including Sojourner Truth, Shirley Chisholm, Bell Hooks, Pauli Murray, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Rebecca Walker, Audre Lorde, Angela Davis, Dr. Maya Angelou, and more!

Naomi Klein, activist and bestselling author, joins Offline to talk about her new book, Doppelganger, and the woman who inspired it, anti-vax crusader Naomi Wolf. The two are often mistaken for each other, and in Doppelganger Klein wades into the confusion to tell a broader story about the morass of the internet today. She and Jon talk about what it means to build a personal brand in the attention economy, how the pandemic fractured our collective sense of reality, and whether the internet is a good place to build a populist movement. Plus, Max is back from the dead! He and Jon break down Biden's new executive order on AI and exchange tips on how to have more productive conversations about the destruction in Gaza.
