“I like my coffee black and my tea in the harbor.” I like that saying, it reminds me of “The Boston Tea Party” from American history.

Dr. Piotr Puchalski depicts interwar Poland's imperial aspirations, through the Maritime and Colonial League's 1938 poster, Colonial Days: We Demand Colonies For Poland. Facing economic crises and the onset of World War II, Poland looked to Africa as a source of material wealth, potential place of alternative appeasement, and site of refuge for its Jewish population. With their abundance of 'exotic' fruits and peoples, propaganda posters advertised Poland's Colonial Days events in April 1938, improving public awareness of places like Cameroon, Madagascar, and Liberia, and bolstering national support for elites' ever-shifting visions for colonialism. Colouring Eastern European perceptions of Africa, this poster highlights how colonialism was a truly global phenomenon, attracting the interest of powers without colonies of their own. Today, Poland is more often considered a victim of imperial exploitation – most famously by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union - than a historic empire or colonial power. But Colonial Days reveals persistent Polish cultural and socioeconomic insecurities, and how European political and artistic trends, from racial pseudoscience to modernism, were moulded by colonial interactions. PRESENTER: Dr. Piotr Puchalski, Assistant Professor of Modern History at the Pedagogical University of Kraków. He specialises in the history of Poland, colonial empires, international relations, and contemporary tourism. He is the author of Poland in a Colonial World Order: Adjustments and Aspirations, 1918-1939, published by Routledge in 2022.

Photo:  Governor's Mansion, Albany, N. Y.              Albany is the second-oldest city in the United States, and since 1797 has been the capital of the Empire State. It was a strategic center during Colonial Days, and it was here in 1754 that steps were taken by the Colonial Congress to consider a federation of the colonies. The contest begins for the governor's mansion.  @HarrySiegel @NYDailyNews. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/02/nyregion/de-blasio-votes-for-his-successor-as-he-eyes-a-run-for-governor.html

Part I of IV: Howe's Masquerade

The show is a “triple play,” as co—hosts Sarah O’Connell-Claitor and Jonah Triebwasser are joined by three representatives of the history-preservation teams of Dutchess County: Lisa Weiss from the Cider Mill Friends of Open Space and Historic Preservation; Bill Ponte of the Sports Museum of Dutchess County; and Amy McKenzie of the Fishkill Historical Society and Van Wyck Homestead Museum. These volunteers and the many volunteers who work with them are dedicated to keeping the significant history of Dutchess County alive, from Colonial Days right up to the present. The event that brings them together is the 8 th annual Cider Tasting at Kimlin Cider Mill, a historic building from the 19thcentury that was rescued from destruction by volunteers in 2008 after a seven-year-long effort. Similarly, the Van Wyck Homestead, which dates from 1732, has been preserved since 1962 by the Fishkill Historical Society. The Sports Museum has since 1977 maintained a Hall of Fame for the many sports figures who played or lived in Dutchess County. The Cider Tasting features ciders from local farms as well as other treats.

The foundation of the Cape Fear region can be traced to Brunswick Town, the area's first enduring settlement founded in 1726. But Brunswick's story isn't just defined by being the first. It was the site of one of the first instances of the rebellion that sparked the American Revolution, the home of two royal governors and the battleground for struggles with the Spanish and the wrath of Mother Nature. On this week's extended episode Jim McKee, site manager of Brunswick Town/Fort Anderson Historic Site stops by to talk the history of the town, just how important it was to North Carolina's early rebellion and why only 20 percent of Brunswick's story has yet to be uncovered today. Cape Fear Unearthed is written, edited and hosted by Hunter Ingram. Additional editing by Adam Fish. Season three is sponsored by Northchase Family Dentistry and Tidewater Heating & Air Conditioning.

Wherein we hear the story of German immigrant Melchior J. Miller (Melky) and his distillery in Accident, MD. How whiskey triumphed over rum and applejack in Colonial Days, leading eventually to a domestic tax on it that caused a "Whiskey Rebellion." And most importantly for us today, how Maryland's special brand of rye whiskey is making a comeback, including a re-creation of a brew named after Melky Miller, now produced out of Philadelphia by the New Liberty Distillery. We conclude with an original ditty, "The Ballad of Melky Miller," soon to be premiered at one of the Old Time Music Jams in New Germany State Park. Check out both the ballad and the brew via this episode on Itunes etc., and at www.wildful.wordpress.com . . .oh, and Bottoms Up!

By New York State law, every county, city, town, and village in the state must have a historian. Will Tatum, Country Historian for Dutchess County, visits RadioRotary to describe the many ways that he and his fellow historians promote the story of our own past. Dutchess County, settled in Colonial Days, was most famously the site of battles and developments in the Revolutionary period, but also hosted many of the major players in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some of this history took place in the taverns and inns that have graced the county over its long history; a program called “The Dutchess County Historical Tavern Trail” takes advantage of these, some still operating as taverns or distilleries, to provide an enjoyable way to learn more about county (and national) history. The program also describes the “ancient documents,” which are—despite the name—the historical records of the county, not available online.

In the 1980s, Australian geographer Maurice Daly exposed the urban planning system as a policy toolkit developers could capitalise on to drive subdivision and speculation – an insight that remains true even today. AAP Image/Lukas CochAustralia’s property market is slowing and many people are contemplating a possible bust. But today’s episode of Essays On Air reminds us that even since colonial days, Australia’s property market has had its ups and downs. Essays On Air, a podcast from The Conversation, brings you the best and most beautiful writing from Australian researchers. Today, University of Sydney urbanism researchers Alistair Sisson and Dallas Rogers narrate a recent essay they wrote for the journal Australian Geographer on boom and bust cycles in major Australian cities. It’s titled Property speculation, global capital, urban planning and financialisation: Sydney Boom, Sydney Bust redux. It was recorded and edited by Dallas Rogers and written with Alistair Sisson and Chris Gibson for the 100th anniversary of the journal Australian Geographer. The audio version features the voices of Roderick Chambers and Kevin Suarez, producers from the community radio station 2SER. The authors would like to acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora nation, upon whose land their research takes place.

Communities across the US are outraged & divided about Black Lives Matter. Violence is not new in America. It’s been a part of America from the Colonial Days; however, when it raised its ugly head in the form of racism, countless innocent people lost their lives. When is this senseless violence along with the killing of innocent lives going to stop? Are you afraid of what's going on across America with the senseless killings, shootings, fights, & blatantly racist violence, both verbal & physical? Tonight we'll open our phone lines to you, our listeners. Give us a call at 657-383-1766 to voice your comment, opinion, or suggestions for solutions. We'd like to hear from you one way or another. To lend support to understand America's history of the issues & causes of racism & violence & to offer potential solutions is our good friend, Dr. Jeffrey Perry, a researcher, historian, & independent working-class scholar. His work focuses on the role of white supremacy as a retardant to progressive social change. Several topics he'll address include: Understanding the Origins of Racism, Afrophobia, & Colorism in America;  “The Invention of the White Race” as seen through the eyes of Theodore Allen, an American intellectual, writer, & activist, who’s best known for his pioneering writings since the 1960s on "white-skin privilege" & the "invention" of the "white race". The discussion might become heated, but wouldn’t it be better to spark intellectual understanding rather than have physical violence and senseless killings?
