What an epic episode! This week I have Prisca on the show and she is just fantastic. We walk around our current society that has been created as a byproduct of colonialism and the fetishization of the rational mind. We pick apart the hidden and covert conditioning that has programed the way we perceive reality and how we interact with our neighbors, seeing them as competitors in them most basic sense; and we dream of a world where the underpinning beliefs of our culture, produce harmony and mutual, symbiotic relationships Prisca's intellectual vigor is so exciting as she gives a down to earth and grounded tone to the abstract and sometimes chaotic crisis that our world and culture are facing, and after this conversation I feel a great deal of hope for our species and our planet. Come join us on our playful and earthy adventure, through the life and times of humans on planet earth Under the Bodhi Tree With love B

Germany embarked on the age of imperialism a bit later than other global powers, and the German experience of empire was much shorter-lived than that of Britain or France or Portugal. Nonetheless, empire was fundamental, Jeff Bowersox argues, to Germans’ self-understanding and sense of place in the world in an era marked by sweeping changes, including rapid industrialization and economic growth; the rise of an urban proletariat in ever-expanding cities; and the emergence of mass consumer culture and mass politics. Indeed, Bowersox notes, a linkage between German identity and empire long outlasted the German Empire itself. Raising Germans in the Age of Empire: Youth and Colonial Culture, 1871-1914 (Oxford University Press, 2013) looks specifically at youth in this context, and at how young Germans encountered their nation’s overseas empire through a variety of media from the founding of the German nation-state to the eve of World War One. Germany was not only a brand-new country in this period, as Bowersox points out, it was also a decidedly youthful one: in the first decade of the twentieth century, four in five Germans were under the age of 45. Raising Germans in the Age of Empire looks at how a nation of young people experienced exotic places, at least imaginatively, through material culture, mass education, and social movements like Scouting. The book uses truly fascinating sources–toys, games, school books, cartoons, among many others–to make new and engaging arguments about the German experience of colonialism in the age of European imperialism.
