This week on Finding Your Bliss, we have a show devoted to music. Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Gregory Childs & Heart Lung who are an alt-country band, converging on the corner where roots meets grunge. The band is led by songwriter Gregory Childs and consists of his wife Velvet Jean as well as a crew of long-time friends (Brent Kervin, Jonathan Billings, Luke Sutherland), who make up the gritty mix of musical accompaniment that includes harmonica, guitars, drums and screams.  In October 2020, the band dropped their debut first release, the “Baby Blue” EP, which was distributed both digitally as well as physically, in a limited release of 7” Vinyl. The EP contained two tracks, “Baby Blue” and “Blood Ties,” both of which garnered play on local radio stations, including CIUT 89.5 FM, as well as internationally, on Galaxy FM in Kawerau, New Zealand where it was picked up by local music enthusiasts and broadcast regularly. In 2022, the band released two new singles, “Lonesome” and “From the Chest.” Both were broadcast on numerous radio stations, including multiple shows on CIUT 89.5 FM and NZ's Galaxy 107FM. “From the Chest” reached number six on the Canadian Independent Country Countdown, run by Coyote 103 FM in Sarnia, Ontario. In early 2023, Gregory Childs & Heart Lung were discovered by Alan Cross, who featured the band as an “undiscovered gem,” as part of The Edge 102.1 FM's show, History of New Music. The band was described as “unplugged Nirvana… maybe a little dark Fleetwood Mac”. In 2024, the band was featured by Canadian radio legend Jeff Woods on his Records and Rockstars podcast, the episode aired on April 5th. Throughout the band's existence, they have been regulars in the Toronto music scene, consistently gigging at places like The Dakota Tavern, Cameron House and Kensington Market. They have finished recording a full-length album and have been mixing in preparation for a release in the fall of 2024. The first single from the album, titled “Useless & Young,” was released on January 30th, 2024.  To hear Gregory Childs and Heart Lung's songs from our interview, click on the link below:  “Useless and Young” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVFIgv1sHeM “Lonesome” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7b5J19E3Qw Also on the program, we have the super-talented Matt Bobkin.

Cameron House in Scotland launches new afternoon tea with Naughty Sheep. | Frommer's

Welcome to the episode 29 of "Women In The Music Industry", a podcast that shines a spotlight on the remarkable women who are breaking barriers and making their mark in an industry that has long been dominated by men. My guest today is none other than Live Sound Engineer, Singer, Songwriter & Artist... Joie. Joie is a compelling presence in the music industry, merging talents as a singer-songwriter with technical prowess in live sound. Their musical journey, which took a professional turn in 2022, is marked by a lifelong engagement with music, culminating in a multifaceted career that spans performing and live sound engineering. Interestingly, Joie hadn't initially considered a career in live sound. The decision came after a friend highlighted the need for greater diversity within the field, emphasizing the importance of representation for women, people of colour, and LGBTQ+ individuals in Toronto's music scene as audio technicians. This insight propelled Joie to explore the technical side of music, aiming to fill the gap and bring a fresh perspective to the industry. Over the last year, Joie's work in live sound has taken them across Toronto Canada, working in venues such as The Rivoli, Burdock Brewery, and The Cameron House. Their technical role complements their identity as a singer-songwriter, where they craft songs that weave personal narratives with universal themes, resonating with a broad audience. Joie's transition into music and live sound engineering not only highlights their adaptability and dedication to their craft, but also positions them as an advocate for inclusivity within the music industry. Their story reflects a commitment to personal growth, diversity, and expression through music, making Joie a standout artist in Toronto's vibrant music community.

Support Queens of the Mines with a tip! Venmo- @queensofthemines CashApp $queensofthemines Paypal southernminequeen@gmail.com   Today, we are talking about an active and daring freedom fighter from California history!   For decades after America's largest migration, the gold rush began, the men who came alone to California to seek their fortunes longed for wives and women of pleasure. It was easier for Chinese traders to convince families to sell their daughters rather than their sons. The traders would offer money to the parents for their daughters, some as young as five years old. The parents were straight up lied to. They were told the traders would help their girls find wealthy husbands, or arrange for them to get an education. The girls would became domestic slaves or were sold into prostitution. The young women lived brutal lives. The youngest girls didn't last more than a few years before their worn and abused bodies gave out. They would usually die within five years after they were first held captive. Some who were on the verge of death were put in a solitary room to starve. Chinese gangs known as Tongs, usually headed up the operations. The local government overlooked the crime. San Francisco City Hall took kickbacks from Tong groups at the time so there was little government action against this problem.   Donaldina Cameron was born on a sheep farm in New Zealand in July of 1869. She spent the first three years of her life there with her Scottish family including her six older siblings. By the time she was four years old, the entire family had immigrated to the United States of America. They brought their skills and knowledge from the farm and made their home on a large sheep ranch in the San Gabriel Valley in California. San Gabriel Valley is to the east of Los Angeles in present-day Pasadena.   Her family and friends called her Dolly. Dolly's childhood was secluded from the outside world. On the ranch, she spent the days picking Johnston's bush lupine and dreaming of marrying. She would have a hard working ranch family and live the kind of comfortable life that her parents had always provided. She knew of nothing else in her new home state of California.    When she was thirteen years old, The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was passed, the first piece of federal immigrant legislation in the United States. It was said to be originally passed to prohibit sex trafficking of Asian women and an influx of Asian male laborers. The Chinese slave trade was as much a part of San Francisco history as was the gold rush. Under the Chinese Exclusion Act, any immigrant from any area considered “undesirable” was prohibited from entering the United States. This included most of Asia. Chinese women could not enter the United States unless they were already married to a man living there. A dangerous and illegal system dubbed the "paper daughters” was created, where papers were forged stating the trafficked victims were already members of Chinese families in the United States.   Hours north, cable cars were first climbing San Francisco's hills. The city had been built to a massive scale since the gold rush began. Protestant women were launching an attack on “yellow slavery” in San Francisco. Cameron came to the city as a young woman to attend school to be a teacher. In the bay, she fell in and out of love.    Her best friend at school had an activist mother, who volunteered at the Presbyterian Mission House in San Francisco. Young Chinese girls who had been shipped from China or kidnapped to work as indentured servants were taking refuge under Maggie Culbertson's team's care. They were provided with “food, shelter, and the teachings of the Christian faith.” At the time, females made up 60 percent of the missionary force. Missionary work, and social work in general, was an example of leadership that was acceptable for Victorian women. Maggie Culbertson, the founder of the Presbyterian Mission House, was ill and needed help.    Dolly had recently left a fiance and quit college and decided to join Culbertson's team. She could teach sewing and other useful skills at the San Francisco Mission House. They agreed on a one year term. Dolly arrived in April of 1895. On her first day ever at the Mission House, sticks of dynamite were found around the premises. She then realized the magnitude of her new situation. The gangs often threatened the mission with death and destruction not just from the Tongs, but, by the police who came to roust the illegal aliens. Magggie Culbertson mentored Dolly in the ways of care and justice. Dolly relished in assisting her in providing the safe haven for the young Chinese girls. She was inspired by Culbertson's courage as she worked by her side.     Tien Fuh Wu was rescued from a Chinatown gambling den and  lived at the home when Cameron arrived. She really didn't care for her and Wu was disobedient for Dolly's first two years at the house. As a child, Wu was told she was going to San Francisco to visit her grandmother. She was taken to a boat in her native province Zhejiang, China. Her father locked her inside a cabin onboard with only a toothbrush and washcloth, told her to eat her supper and left without saying goodbye. Her father had sold her to pay off his gambling debts.    The boat brought her one hundred miles north to Shanghai, then she boarded a steamship to San Francisco. She worked as a mui tsai, or, a domestic servant in a brothel in the city until the owner at the brothel fell into debt. Wu was sold to the gambling den on Jackson Street. There, she was subjected to rigorous household chores, and physically abused by her new owner. When she was old enough, she was transferred to a life of sex work. When rescued, Wu's body was covered in burns, cuts and bruises. She arrived at the home on 920 Sacramento Street 15 months before Dolly. At the turn of the century in San Francisco, this kind of trafficking was rampant, and largely ignored by city authorities.  Culbertson's health failed when Cameron was 25 years old. Two years later, she took over as superintendent of the Presbyterian Home. Wu changed her mind about Dolly after one of the Chinese women who worked alongside Cameron passed away. The intense grief Dolly displayed showed Wu a new side of the woman. Wu worked for Dolly as a translator during court cases, and helped supervise the Mission House, earning $5 a month.    Donaldina Cameron continued Culbertson's mission of the Home. She saved young women from sex slavery and indentured servitude in the worst hellholes of Chinatown. Cameron had an uncanny knack of smelling out the brothels that were often hidden behind trap doors. Secret messages were sent to her from friends and relatives of these captive girls, tipping her off the girl's location. Engaging in chases over rooftops, down dark alleys, hiding in hidden rooms and breaking down doors with an ax. I mean shit worthy of a blockbuster feature action film.   At the safe house, the girls however, were not entirely free. They were to concede to Anglo-American ways. Dolly incorporated Chinese food and decorations into their daily living, but the students were forced to convert to Christianity. Most of the immigrant women welcomed the conversion and looked to Dolly as a hero. They called her “Lo Mo” translated it means Little Mother. Yet there were women who had mixed feelings about this forced conversion. The house was also the site of many happy marriages of girls who eventually found worthy men. When they married their chosen suitor, they would wear a white gown, rather than the traditional red. White gowns symbolize funerals in Chinese culture.   Wu was her favorite aide. Her ability to translate was a fantastic asset. She was also able to comfort the rescued girls. The brothel and slave owners commonly spread fear of "White Devils" to stop the women in their possession from seeking help. The Tongs had many nicknames for Dolly. Jesus Woman, White Spirit, White Witch, White Devil and the Angry Angel of Chinatown. The Tongs would tell their captives that the “White Witch” would drink the blood of the liberated girls to keep up her vitality. Wu would show them her own scars, ensuring their safety. The scars were evidence of her understanding. She accompanied Cameron on the dangerous rescues that took many months and intense investigation to orchestrate. When the fear of the bubonic plague had been in Chinatown. The roads were blocked off and the neighborhood was under quarantine. They used the roofs to get to the girls they were rescuing. Together, Dolly and her 4' 11" cohort saved the lives of thousands of trafficked Chinese girls and women in San Francisco. Wu was targeted by the Tongs because she herself was Chinese. The gangs saw her as a traitor. The threats were so common that after each major rescue, Cameron would stop Wu from going out alone for weeks at a time.    The law wasn't always on her side. Getting legal custody of the girls was nearly impossible for Cameron since child protection laws did not yet exist. Tong leaders would claim that they had a right to the captive as her “sponsor” and the courts often agreed. They would say the captive was a relative, or that she was working voluntarily. If she captured the girl first, she could work the legal problems out later. This way, the girl would be safe in the mission house while the courts hashed out the details.   On March 29, 1900 two Chinese men and a police officer arrived at the Mission Home looking for resident Kum Quai, who they claimed was a thief. This was a typical tactic used by the brothel owners to reclaim the women. Quai was arrested, but Cameron would not let her be alone with the men, so she joined on the train journey to Palo Alto. Quai was to be locked in a cell for the night, and Cameron remained with her. At 2 am, the deputy tried to open the door, but Cameron was suspicious of the early morning entry and barricaded them inside until the officers started breaking down the doors.    After the train, the men loaded Quai in a buggy, and Cameron attempted to follow. She was pushed out and thrown onto the road. Cameron woke townspeople up right away, panicked. Frustration spread throughout the town. A crowd demonstrated the  next day in San Jose at the office of the lawyer who planned the event. “The public uproar led to criminal indictments,” and the men involved were punished.  In 1904, she had her attorneys challenge the courts to provide for child welfare laws. It was a breakthrough that would provide her a most useful tool for her rescues. Some of the girls opted for more education, and one of Donaldina's “daughters” became the first Chinese woman to graduate from Stanford University. Another daughter trained to become the first Chinese nurse through the Presbyterian Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Yet other daughters stayed on at Cameron House to help with the mission's work. Cameron wrote extensively in publications like Women and Missions and a pamphlet titled "The Yellow Slave Traffic", seeking to gain financial support for her mission.    In April 1906, the great San Francisco earthquake and fire forced the evacuation of the Presbyterian Home, which was destroyed in the earthquake. The night the tragedy happened, Dolly ran through the blazing city back to her home to retrieve a logbook that detailed her guardianship over her girls. She did not want them to be forced back into servitude or prostitution.   The home was rebuilt the following year. Hidden passages were constructed in the basement of the new structure. A fire that happened years later burned several girls to death who were trapped in the very room that was supposed to keep them safe. It is said that this is ranked as one of San Francisco's allegedly haunted locations and these very women still haunt the building today. The building, now known as The Donaldina Cameron House is San Francisco Landmark #44. The doors to the basement remain sealed.    Throughout her career, she kept expanding her work. She tried to overturn the Oriental Exclusion Act, which prevented Chinese from owning property, limited where they could live and denied them the right to testify on their own behalf in an American court. Donaldina also founded two homes for Chinese children and raised awareness about widespread prejudice toward all Chinese.  Many of these children were orphans or the children of the rescued women. The Chung Mei Home served young boys, while the Ming Quong Home was for girls. The former Chung Mei house is today part of the Windrush School in El Cerrito, California, and the Ming Quong Home is now a part of Mills College in Oakland, California.    Donaldina retired in 1942 and the Presbyterian Home was renamed the Donaldina Cameron House. After retirement, Donaldina moved to the Palo Alto area. Despite living in Chinatown for 40 years, Cameron never learned Chinese. Three years later, she adopted an orphan from Korea. Wu lived next door to Cameron when she was an elderly woman living in Palo Alto. She is credited with saving and educating over 3,000 Chinese immigrant women and girls and was considered a "national icon". Over 800 women are recorded as having lived there between 1874 and 1909 .    Cameron was remembered for how close she was with the home's residents and for being kind and caring to all people, despite their nationalities. At the same time, she was part of the larger missionary system, in which “the ethnocentric attitude and national and religious absolutism… cannot be denied”. She made an effort to embrace these women's culture when she arrived at the Mission Home. “Nothing angered Miss Cameron more than the racial discrimination to which Chinese were subjected in housing, employment, and education”. For the time, Cameron was progressive and accepting. However, she still forced the residents to comply with her leadership and culture.   Historian Dorothy Gray calls her “perhaps the most active and daring freedom fighter in the history of the West.” Ron Cameron, Donaldina's great nephew, remembers that when visiting the elderly Cameron on her birthday, years after she stopped working, he “would have to get in a line that was about two blocks long of Chinese people who had driven… to wish her a happy birthday    She died in Palo Alto, California, in 1968, at the age of 98. Wu is said to have been at her mentor's side, reading from a Bible until the very end. She is buried at the Evergreen Cemetery in the East Side neighborhood of Boyle Heights in Los Angeles. When Wu passed away seven years later, she was buried next to her friend in Cameron's family plot at the Evergreen Cemetery in Los Angeles.   The Cameron House still stands today in San Francisco, serving as a multi-service agency serving Asian communities by promoting healthy Christian communities through programs like youth sports, tutoring, and counseling. If you call Cameron House today, the phone is still answered in Chinese. Miranda Raison portrays Donaldina Cameron in the Cinemax TV series Warrior as Nellie Davenport. Ah Toy is also a character in that series.  https://cameronhouse.org/ https://truewestmagazine.com/donaldina-cameron/ https://www.kqed.org/arts/13880286/the-child-slave-who-helped-rescue-thousands-of-women-in-chinatown   http://www.sfmuseum.net/1906/ew15.html   https://truewestmagazine.com/donaldina-cameron/ https://www.foundsf.org/index.php?title=Donaldina_Cameron:_The_Person_Behind_the_Legend

SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: CLICK HEREMike T. Kerr is a world-class guitar player going through a creative renaissance. We track the evolution of his creative spike from early lock-down inability to finish any project, to releasing an album per month in 2021. He shares some ups and downs as a gigging musician, the “aha moment” he had around being able to optimize creative input and output simultaneously and he schools us on some of the history of guitar playing as he plays on his newly beloved tenor guitar.  We nerd out about how we both thrive on relationships that are hyper-focused on specific areas of life but ultimately illuminate what matters most, the importance of the book “The War of Art” and the idea of overcoming artistic resistance. Mike also explains the inevitability of the path he's currently following."All my life. I've taken a step in this direction and been like, ‘Ooh, should I have done that? Couldn't I have maybe gone this way instead? But okay, I guess I'm on this path now. I guess I'll take another step in this direction just to see.' And then it's like, ‘Oh, I took another step. The forest is getting a little thicker. Maybe I should have gone down that way instead, but I guess I'll just keep going.'  And it's been like this for a long time. And I realized that that path has been getting more and more paved as I've been going along, you know what I mean? I only get stronger as I go. It's been a long time since anyone has ever said to me: ‘Get a real job.' Of course I've had that and I think I've realized why another path wouldn't work:  Every time in my life that I have gone down the path of, 'Okay. Here's something that offers a different kind of stability and security and a paycheck at the same time every two weeks.' That lifestyle, which tons of people are able to just do, and compartmentalize, and then free themselves after to be the awesome person that they are,  for me, if I ever say, ‘Okay. You know what? I have to do this to make this part of my life square. So I'm going to put this thing, I don't know what to call it: my love, my art and my passion and stuff. If I say, ‘Okay. You know what? I'm going to sort of put it over here, for this number of hours a day, because I need to get serious and “get a real job”.' This little pen that I put it in will never be large enough, no matter how much I try and compartmentalize it. For me, it will always grow and overtake whatever part-time or full-time job I got 'til the point where I have to quit that job anyways. This is what I've seen in my life over the years."---SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: CLICK HERE---MIKE T. KERRWEBSITEBANDCAMPINSTAGRAM---AND SOMETIMES ... WHY?:ANDSOMETIMESWHY.COMEMAILIGFBTWEET

Guitar Rags & Country Ballads is Mike's first album, it was recorded and released in 2018. It features 7 original Country songs and 3 instrumentals. Mike has kept very busy since that debut release and has endeavoured to release an album a month in 2021 at: miketkerr.bandcamp.com For more on Mike visit: www.miketkerr.com

Back in mid-March I received an email from Matt Rainnie, personable host of CBC Mainstreet: would I be interested, he asked, in being the “Spin Time DJ” for the show on an upcoming Friday. Would I be interested? Of course I’d be interested. Had I not been dreaming of this very moment for years! “Spin Time DJ,” for those from away, is a regular Friday feature on the afternoon radio show where a guest is invited, in 22 short minutes, to relate their life story, punctuated by three meaningful songs. Here’s Ashley Belanger-Birt doing it. And Bill Schurman. And John Connolly. As a non-Islander of no particular note, I’d long ago given up hope that I’d one day be called up to the bigs. But dreams do come true. So plans were made to record this morning. And then the hard part. Summarize my life in three songs. Not easy, as it turns out. For a while there I had a strong plan to go completely Kobayashi Maru, and set aside popular music in favour of sounds of Japanese coffee shops and walks in the woods behind my childhood home. Is there not music in nature? But I pulled myself back from the edge, dug in deep, and came up with three songs I’m very happy with. Matt and I had a nice chat this morning, backed by the audio engineering prowess of David Rashed, and the segment will air Friday, April 9, 2021 after the 5:30 p.m. news. You can listen live on the radio if you’re near, on the web stream if you’re not, and the episode will be posted to the Mainstreet website on Monday. —— Postscript: Here are the three songs I choose: Jane Siberry and David Ramsden, The Love I Have for You (3:51), from the 1990 cassette “Quiet Please, There’s A Lady On Stage,” recorded live at the Cameron House in Toronto. Shawn Colvin, This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody) (4:01), from the album 1994 album “Cover Girl,” recorded live at the Bottom Line in NYC, August 1993. Karine Polwart, Labouring and Resting (3:14), from the 2017 album “A Pocket of Wind Resistance.”

Today's conversation with documentary film makers Josh and Harry Chuck revolves around Chinatown, a 3 x 8 neighborhood that's nearly as dense as Manhattan! The Chuck family and I grew up attending Cameron House, which is a non-profit, faith based organization that has served the Chinese American community for nearly a century and a half. In conjunction with the Presbyterian Church, I can easily say that Cameron House programs forever shaped my life and the lives of my guests.

This week, James & Colin have an alcohol-infused discussion on Trump leaving office and Biden's inauguration, impeachment, QAnon, Ted Cruz being an idiot, the latest on Covid in Britain, James Bond's No Time To Die delayed again, Navalny arrested in Russia, British fish and the Cameron House fire of 2017.

Son of Paper sat down with Corey and Laurene Chan, who have served the Chinatown community in San Fransisco, California for countless number of years.

The brothers Ferraro join us on this episode of The Adamantium Podcast to discuss their new single “Sugar Rush” and upcoming EP, collaborating for the first time, the success of their song “You Look Good Like That” and being a breakout band in the year 2020 when there is no live music. We also talk about their connection to The Cameron House venue and the Toronto music scene, recording Christmas songs in July, and covering Billie Eilish.

In this episode, Josh talks all about what went into making the documentary Chinatown Rising, which he co-directed and produced. From his dad calling him about a bunch of video footage he was cleaning out of the garage to the opening of the CAAM Film Festival in 2019, the journey of making the movie is as remarkable as the documentary itself. If you missed Part 1, when Josh talked about his Chinese-American ancestors and his own childhood, please go back and listen. We recorded this podcast at Cameron House in Chinatown in March 2020.

​Chinatown in San Francisco is so much more than ornate streetlamps. In this podcast, Josh Chuck, who co-directed and produced the documentary Chinatown Rising, traces his family's story back a few generations and explains how they ended up the city. His parents met at Cameron House, where Josh was raised mostly. He has stories of he and his teenage friends finding fun all over town in the nineties. He ends the podcast with his time at UC Davis, which is where Josh started getting into filmmaking. We recorded this podcast at Cameron House in Chinatown in March 2020. Photo by Jeff Hunt

Litquake’s proud to present a special episode of Lit Cast Live featuring one of our own, Julia Flynn Siler, in conversation on her newest book The White Devil’s Daughters: The Women Who Fought Slavery in San Francisco’s Chinatown. In a narrative hailed as “eye-opening” by Kirkus Reviews, Siler tells the story of both the abolitionists who challenged the corrosive anti-Chinese prejudices of the time and the young women who dared to flee their fate. She relates how the women who ran the Cameron House defied contemporary convention by physically rescuing children from the brothels where they worked or by snatching them off ships as they were being smuggled in–and how they helped bring the exploiters to justice. This event was recorded live at the Mechanics’ Institute in San Francisco on Wednesday, July 12.  Litquake's 20th anniversary festival will take place October 10-19, 2019. For all the latest updates, follow us @litquake on Facebook and Twitter!

In the interview, Brandon chats with Cameron House who is the pastor of Deaf Church D.C. A newly church plant in the heart of Galluadet University. Cameron shares his story and the journey of planting a new church. He also shares about the challenges of church planting as well as give some advice on what to do when facing difficulty choices.

Julia Flynn Siler's new book, The White Devil's Daughters: The Fight Against Slavery in San Francisco's Chinatown, is a revelatory history of the trafficking of young Asian girls—a practice that flourished in San Francisco during the first century of Chinese immigration (1848–1943)—and the "safe house" on the edge of Chinatown that became a refuge for those seeking their freedom. Starting in 1874, the brick house at 920 Sacramento Street in San Francisco's Chinatown served as a home and gateway to freedom for thousands of enslaved and vulnerable young Chinese women and girls—a pioneering “rescue mission.” Known then as the Occidental Mission Home, it survived earthquakes, fire, bubonic plague and violence directed against its occupants and supporters—a courageous group of female abolitionists who fought the slave trade in Chinese women. Donaldina Cameron was the indomitable leader of the home for over 37 years. In 1942, the home was renamed Cameron House, and it still serves the Asian-American community today, offering a range of social services and youth programs. With compassion and an investigative historian's sharp eyes, Siler relates how the women who ran the house defied contemporary convention and anti-Chinese prejudices. These women occasionally even broke the law by physically rescuing children from the brothels where they worked or snatching them off the ships that were smuggling them in, helping bring the exploiters to justice. Siler has also uncovered the stories of many of the girls and young women who came to the Mission and the lives they later led. Sometimes these women became part of the home's staff themselves, including Tien Wu, who became Donaldina Cameron's translator and aide. Siler will talk about this remarkable story of an overlooked part of our history—a story that still resonates today. This is the tale of immigrants overcoming great difficulties with the aid of sympathetic Americans. MLF ORGANIZER NAME Lillian Nakagawa Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

WW1 Centennial News is brought to you by the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum and Library. I’m Theo Mayer - the Chief Technologist for the Commission and your host. Welcome to the show. [MUSIC] Preface Let's begin today’s show with a single word. Suffrage! What is that word? Is it about the process of suffering - well yea -  but only in a manner of speaking, The actual etymology or the history of the word comes the latin term for voting or to VOTE. It's a little hard to remember that 100 years ago, during the war that changed the world, a large part of the American citizenry had no democratic sway or say in the governance of the country. For some reason, in a majority of states, it was thought that you needed testicles in order to cast a vote. The Suffrage movement - the movement for women's right to vote - was in high gear during this time  and in 1916 during his presidential campaign, Woodrow Wilson promises that his democratic party will endorse women's suffrage - During that same election, the progressive state of Montana - surprise - surprise - elects suffragist Jeannette Rankin to the US House of Representatives. And just 4 days after being sworn in as the first woman to serve in congress, on April 6, 1917, the house of representatives is casting its historic vote about declaring war on Germany - which eventually passed 373 to 50.   Jeannette Rankin remains silent during the first reading of the roll call. So--- Former Speaker of the house - Joe Cannon of Illinois -- seeks her out on the house floor and advises: “Little woman, you cannot afford not to vote. You represent the womanhood of the country...  and in the American Congress.” So on the second reading of the roll, violating house rules about commenting on your votes, Rankin rises from her seat and intones...   “I want to stand by my country, but I cannot vote for war.” While the women of America are fully engaged in the war effort... from sending their sons and husbands and even daughters into an unknown future, to taking over critical infrastructure jobs and tasks on the homefront, and in dozens of other ways --  one hundred years ago this week, the pages of the New York Times are filled with stories about suffragists, pacifists, and President Wilson's change of position on the women's suffrage movement. Wow - So let's jump back in time 100 years and see what the fuss in all about!   World War One THEN 100 Year Ago This Week [MUSIC TRANSITION] It is the second week of November, 1917 and just a week ago, a socio political tsunami lands -- when on November 6th 1917:  Women in New York State win the right to vote!!  This sends shock waves through the political arena and emboldens the suffragists to take action in Washington DC. In the November 11th Sunday edition of the New York Times there are three articles about the suffragist in DC. [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline October 11, 1917 A headline in the New York Times reads: SUFFRAGISTS WARY OF OLD PARTY BIDS They Declare Purpose of Continued Nonpartisan Fight for Federal Amendment Denounce all Political BOSS ism Men Leaders See Danger to Their Prestige In New Political Holdings   And the story goes on to read: The Suffrage Leaders have decided to keep the Woman Suffrage Party and it's organized allies alive and militant as NON PARTISAN AGENCIES to continue the fight - at least until after the congress shall have adopted - and sufficient state legislatures shall have ratified the so-called Susan B Anthony amendment to the Federal Constitution. The amendment that shall provide for the enfranchisement of women in every nook and corner of the United States! Politicians of "the other sex" who heard of this yesterday realized with a sudden start that MAN was no longer the only pebble on the political beach. They were not slow to sense the potential behind the plan and marveled that the woman suffrage leaders with a stiff franchise fight on their hands should have found time to think up novel and catchy devices that nad never occurred to the men politicians at all. So in overview, the woman suffrage movement wins in New York state… and the suffrage leadership realizes the power of their numbers and decide to hold themselves non-partisan as a voting block until their goals are met --- all to the awed surprise and shock of the old boys club - who had not imaged that the ladies would have such strategic pluck!   [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline October 11, 1917 Another headline in today's NY Times reads: SUFFRAGISTS EAGER TO LEARN POLITICS They Throng to hear from President William taft in discussion of "Partnership of Democratic Nations"   And the story reads New York: That the Suffragists are determined to prepare themselves for the polls by receiving as much instruction as possible in the techniques of national and international politics was shown by the throng of women who flocked to Carnegie Hall yesterday to hear ex-president Taft deliver a lecture on a partnership of democratic nations under the auspices of the league for Political Education. Seldom has Mr. Taft had a more attentive, earnest, and interested audience, than these hundreds of women, who felt that the passage of the Suffrage Amendment in New York obliged them to absorb and understand more thoroughly than they had ever done before, the mysteries and intricacies of political science and international relations. And yet a third article is published in the NY times on this same Sunday - this one about a defiant protest in Washington.   [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline October 11, 1917 The headline reads: ARREST OF 41 PICKETS FOR SUFFRAGE AT WHITE HOUSE Police, Unable to Induce Them to Move On, Take them Off in “Black Marias.”   And the story reads: Forty one woman suffragists from fifteen states were arrested this afternoon for picketing outside the White House. Their adventure was one of the quietest and at the same time most sedately spectacular of all the picketing affairs yet staged. On former raids by picketers  the crowds had jeered, but today there was none of it. A murmur arose as the vanguard of suffragists marched across Pennsylvania Ave. They carried their usual display of banners, one at the head of the line reading: “Mr. President, in your message to congress, urge the amendment enfranchising women!” The police officers quietly informed them that they must “move on”. They replied that they intended on doing no such thing. The captain gave them a moment to wait, then motioning to the policemen standing by at his elbow, ordered the women escorted to the waiting “Black Maria”. They went without protest filling the wagons. Mrs. Oliver H P Belmont, member of the national executive Committee of the National Woman’s Party said: “What have we come to in America when splendid women, loving liberty are arrested for asking this simple question: ‘Mr. President, in your message to Congress urge the passage of the Federal Suffrage Amendment enfranchising Women!”   Two days later…. [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline November 13, 1917 A headline in the NY Times reads SUFFRAGISTS PICKETS GET ARRESTED AGAIN Thirty One, Including Many of The Former Prisoners, Taken at White House Again. Protesting Delegates of New York Fail to Obtain an Audience with the President.   And the story reads Thirty-one militant suffragists, most of who were among the forty-one arrested last Saturday, repeated their picketing before the White House today and were re-arrested. This followed a hearing at which the forty-one appeared before Judge Mellowney of the Police Court, who suspended the sentences. Mrs. William Kent of california stated: “My conscience is clear. I walked on Saturday afternoon from Cameron House to the further gate of the White House. I obstructed no traffic. I was moving. At the further gate there was no crowd. I held a banner which all might read.   The administration should commend instead of allowing a prison sentence to be imposed upon women who hold aloft words which show the utmost devotion to the ideals of political liberty on which our government is founded.” This explanation was offered by Mrs. Wiley: “I want to state that we took this action with the consecration of spirit. We took this action with willingness to sacrifice our personal liberty, in order to focus the attention of the nation on the injustice of our disenfranchisement, that we might thereby win political liberty for all the women of the country.” She closed with: The constitution says that Congress shall not in any way abridge the right of citizens peaceably to assemble and petition. That is exactly what we did. We peacefully assembled and then proceeded with our petition to the President for the redress of our grievance of disenfranchisement. The constitution does not specify the form of petition. Ours was in the form of a banner. To say that we broke the traffic regulations when we exercise our constitutional right of petition is in therefore itself unconstitutional!   President Wilson, a previously declared supporter of suffrage now finds himself in a bind. The suffragists are in a large part anti-war, growing in power, declaring themselves apart from established parties and seemingly ever more militant.  He comes to see the movement as a threat to the war effort. In the end a compromise is reached, the suffrage movement declares support for the war and the Susan B. Anthony amendment is ratified after being passed by the thirty-sixth state, Tennessee, on August 18, 1920. A woman’s right to vote becomes the nineteenth amendment to the United States Constitution - a movement that has a watershed moment 100 years ago this week in the War that changed the world!   [SOUND EFFECT] Great War Project At last the Battle of Passchendaele in Flanders ends. It is declared a victory for the allies - but at such costs - can anything really be considered a victory. Here to tell us about it is Mike Shuster, former NPR correspondent and curator of the Great War Project blog. The horror at Passchendaele is finally over!

[SOUND EFFECT] Commission News Events: Recap of Groundbreaking Last week on November 9, 2017 the US World War One Centennial Commission hosted the ceremonial groundbreaking for America’s WWI Memorial at Pershing Park in Washington DC. The event marked an important moment in the projects realization with great guests speaking on the occasion including Muriel Bowser the Mayor of Washington DC, Congressmen Ted Poe, Emanuel Cleaver, Doug Lamborn and Kevin Yoder in a great bipartisan show of support, the administration's US Secretary of Veterans Affairs, David Shulkin, And The Chief of staff of the army, General Mark A.

But shooting from a trench in the war was very different from shooting back home; lifting your head up while you carefully aimed in on a target could get you killed. So when you went to fire, speed was key. Snapping up over the parapet, aim, fire and drop became THE standard procedure, a procedure that came to be known as a  snapshot! The word snapshot had been used to describe a quick shot from a firearm during the 1800s, but came into much more frequent use during the war. Around the same time, the word was also borrowed for another activity - taking pictures! As we mentioned in episode #30, this era was the advent of roll film and small, portable cameras. This allowed people to take pictures casually and easily. These quickly composed photographs also became known as snapshots - pop up the camera - aim - fire with the same speed as their namesake riflemen. A game even emerged called “snapshooting,” a sort of photographic version of tag: where you tried to escape while someone raced around trying to catch you on film. It  was a kind of photographic version of hunting… but as we were preparing this article - it suddenly struck me how strange it is that we speak of shooting a picture, shooting video, shooting a selfie… I mean if you think about it - that’s completely backwards - nothing comes out of the camera - you’re not shooting anything - the light and image go INTO the camera - so you’re not shooting, you’re capturing something. But… somehow the term SnapCap just does not have the panache of this week’s speaking WWI word - SnapSHOT See the podcast notes to learn more!   link: https://www.amazon.com/Tommy-Doughboy-Fritz-Soldier-Slang/dp/144563 7839/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1508848013&sr=8-1&keywords=tommy+doughboy+fritz https://encyclopedia.1914-1918-online.net/article/photography https://books.google.com/books?id=e1uOAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA82&lpg=PA82&dq=snapshot+word+origin&source=bl&ots=lbRMBtv72g&sig=0z6RxsEwfHGJrS79B1ivAL5GoKI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjs3Nijnr7XAhWH0iYKHcyvC-M4ChDoAQgoMAA#v=onepage&q=snapshot%20word%20origin&f=false 100 Cities/100 Memorials [SOUND EFFECT   Jackson, Missouri Moving on to our 100 Cities / 100 Memorials segment about the $200,000 matching grant challenge to rescue and focus on our local WWI memorials.

The Corps, often called ACM, was a military division formed by Belgian volunteers during WWI. It was sent to Russia at the request of the Tsar to fight the German Army on the Eastern front. After the Bolshevik revolution, the ACM corps found itself trapped in hostile territory, unable to return to Allied territory through Europe or the Middle East - so to reach safety, the Corps headed east, eventually reaching the US through China and Siberia. Talk about a road trip! The Embassy of Belgium has a new World War I exhibit on the ACM that has been traveling across the United States. We caught up with two members of the Belgian Embassy staff, who worked on the exhibit -- and you can read the interview with them at ww1cc.org/news or by following the link in the podcast notes. link:http://www.worldwar1centennial.org/index.php/communicate/press-media/wwi-centennial-news/3630-four-question-for-gaelle-powis-de-tenbossche-and-carl-vander-maelen.html   The Buzz - WW1 in Social Media Posts And that brings us to the buzz - the centennial of WW1 this week in social media with Katherine Akey - Katherine, what’s going on in the world of social media this week?   Hi Theo!   Veterans Day in Gondrecourt Veterans Day and Armistice Day commemorations took place all across the world last week, and you can see many photos and videos of various events shared on our Facebook and Twitter or on our social media wall at ww1cc.org/social. One post in particular that I wanted to share come from the Facebook page “Les Americains de la Gondrecourt Area”, a very franglais page that commemorates the history of the American presence in Gondrecourt during WW1. On November 10th,  the college students of Gondrecourt paid tribute to 131 American soldiers who died at the American hospital there between 1917 and 1919 by planting a tree in honor of each soldier. Each student received a card with the details of the American Soldier they were to represent in the commemoration, including his regiment and his hometown. You can see images from this commemorative event by following the link in the podcast notes. link:https://www.facebook.com/lesamericainsdegondrecourt/posts/516814575343417   Eagle Scout Sign Project Here in the states, a young man has completed a very ambitious project in Huntington, West Virginia. Benjamin Woodard has just finished installing 17 signs honoring WW1 soldiers as his Eagle Scout project in Ritter Park. The park already contains trees planted in honor of ww1 veterans as well as a WW1 Memorial Arch, so Woodard’s signs fit right in but also provided more information on the individuals who served. He did research on 91 local veterans of World War One during the course of the project. Coolest of all, he has given all that research to the Clio App, an app which takes your location and guides you to landmarks, museums, and historic sites nearby. People in Huntington will be able to open Clio and hear and read the stories of the soldiers that Woodard found during his work on his Eagle Scout project. Learn more about his project, and the Clio app, by following links in our notes.

Robb Mirsky was working the checkout at a liquor store when David Craig showed up in his line wearing a Chester Brown t-shirt. The two bonded and Robb invited David to the next Toronto Comic Jam. Taking place the last Tuesday of every month, the jam happens in the back of the Cameron House bar where participants are expected to grab a page and finish the next panel of the night's various half-started comics. At the end of the night, the pages are collected and that month's issue is published. It was on one of those nights when Robb and David met James Spencer. The three vibe so well at the Jam they decide to recreate the magic with Read More Comix – a series of surrealist humour comics reminiscent of the underground comix of the 1960s by Robert Crumb, Spain Rodriguez, Kim Deitch and Trina Robbins. At Speech Bubble, the three talk about their individual styles and why they work so well together before promoting their latest sequential experiment, the bookmark sized Tiny Comix.

Live, from the historic Cameron House, a body is found in a swimming pool. The body belongs to Flinst Bernstrom, and the pool is an ocean, at a hotel for freaks run by Craig Alliance (Chris Locke), which is in turn home to a cult operated by Hillary Flynn (Nicole Passmore), dedicated to Craig, even though Craig himself is infatuated with Hillary's late twin (also found dead). Such is the complex exploration that unravels, of how the relationships we make when we're young can reverberate for the rest of our lives, and how a tangled web of emotions can have such tragic consequences. Also, they talk about the poo stuck in Flinst's butt!

Nate Mills, frontman of the band Run with the Kittens talks about his early years growing up in Orillia, Ontario, how we moved to Toronto, started a band, toured in a school bus, and became a frequent flyer at the legendary Cameron House. He shares how Terry Brown, the producer of several classic Rush records discovered RWTK and ended up producing more classic material with them. A joyous talk with a fountain of creativity and a genuinely nice guy...the kinda guy you'd like to enjoy a good steakette with!

Furious Italians. Corrupt officials. The legendary Jim McLean. A sea plane. All of these feature in Part One of this Big Interview with Walter Smith, which we recorded on the stunning grounds of Cameron House on the Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond. It was going to take something special to outdo that scenery. But Walter managed just that, recalling his time spent working under McLean at Dundee United and how the iconic manager inspired loyalty in his players - as well as fear. Their United side reached the semi-finals of the European Cup but that campaign ended in Rome, on a night made infamous by a crooked referee and the threats Roma's players made to McLean. Walter explains how he helped the United manager escape unscathed. And Walter also talks about winning the European Youth Championship with Scotland in 1982, during an era when it seemed as though the country would always produce exciting, natural footballers, and how only Andy Roxburgh could see that talent pool was going to dry up.
