Podcasts about Columbian exchange

The Columbian Exchange remains maybe the most significant historical development in modern history-setting the stage for the world we inhabit today. In modern day Mexico, the post-conquest colonial period led to the beginnings of many processes that would define Mexico and the Americas for years to come-the encomienda system, the racial casta system, class struggle in Mexico, tension between Spanish and indigenous, and the sparks of future Revolution. With the benefit of hindsight and counterfactuals, it's worth asking if the Columbian Exchange was the best or worst outcome we could have gotten? This is the final part in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire.

Greg Jenner is joined in 16th-Century Mexico by Dr Amy Fuller and comedian Jen Brister to learn about Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés and his translator Malintzin.In 1521, the powerful Aztec empire was brutally conquered by the Spanish, led by the ambitious and fanatical Hernán Cortés. After a falling-out with his boss in Cuba, Cortés disobeyed orders and led an expedition party into Mexico. He was helped in his conquest by local peoples who bore a grudge against the Aztecs, chief amongst them the woman who became his translator: Malintzin. A skilled linguist, Malintzin was given to Cortés upon his arrival in Mexico, but after gaining her freedom was central to Cortés's success. The two even had a son together.This episode tells the story of Cortés and Malintzin before, during and after the conquest, exploring how an Indigenous woman came to translate for a conquistador. From Malintzin's murky childhood to Cortés's desperate attempts to impress the king of Spain, via the rumours that he killed his first wife and the complicated politics of Mexico, we examine these two intertwined lives. If you're a fan of bloody conquests, Indigenous histories and women surviving at any cost, you'll love our episode on Cortés and Malintzin.If you want more from Jen Brister, check out our episode on Emma of Normandy.

In this episode of the American Canon, Andrew outlines the columbian exchange and its giant impact on world cultures, people and goods.

The widespread transfer of human populations, plants, animals, precious metals, commodities, culture, technology, diseases, religion, and ideas between North America in the Western Hemisphere, and the Afro-Eurasian Old World in the Eastern Hemisphere is known as the Columbian Exchange. It is named after the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus and is related to the European colonization and global trade following his 1492 voyage.  Check out the YouTube version of this episode which has accompanying visuals including maps, charts, timelines, photos, illustrations, and diagrams, at: https://youtu.be/-rZVztH5pjY https://youtu.be/oquuTAXW5ms The History of the Americans podcast with Jack Henneman at https://amzn.to/3YuA3Mu  North America History books available at https://amzn.to/3OnczVT    Columbian Exchange books available at https://amzn.to/3WobH5h   ENJOY Ad-Free content, Bonus episodes, and Extra materials when joining our growing community on https://patreon.com/markvinet  SUPPORT this channel by purchasing any product on Amazon using this FREE entry LINK https://amzn.to/3POlrUD (Amazon gives us credit at NO extra charge to you).  Mark Vinet's TIMELINE video channel at video channel: https://youtube.com/c/TIMELINE_MarkVinet                                  Website: https://markvinet.com/podcast  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mark.vinet.9 Twitter: https://twitter.com/HistoricalJesu   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/denarynovels   Books: https://amzn.to/3k8qrGM   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In recognition of the holiday(s),* this is a revision of one of the podcast's earliest episodes, Introduction to the Columbian Exchange. The "Columbian Exchange" refers to the interhemispheric transmission of diseases, food crops, populations, cultures, and technologies in the years after Columbus's famous First Voyage. The term was invented in 1972 by the famous biological historian Alfred W. Crosby Jr. of the University of Texas at Austin. The original episode focuses on the impact of diseases and crops that moved from one hemisphere to the other following 1492. It is replete with interesting factoids! The revisions include thoughts on the human consequences, including to the indigenous peoples of the Americans and Africans swept up in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and how we might think about it now. *I think you know what I'm saying here.

The biggest agricultural crop in the world today, by total weight, is corn.  Also known as maize, corn is a crop of the New World. The ancients in China, India, Mesopotamia, and Rome never knew about corn. Yet, since the Columbian Exchange, it has become one of the world's most important commodities as a source of food, animal feed, and the basis of many manufactured food products.  Learn more about corn, aka maize, where it came from, and how it revolutionized the world of agriculture on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

What do we learn when an anthropologist and a historian talk about food? Across endless eras, landscapes, and civilizations, humanity's relationship with food has played the part of one of the landmark features of culture and community. We feel this on both the micro and macro scale — from learning a recipe passed down through generations of one's own family to the excitement of exploring an unfamiliar local market in a city far from home. Culinary curiosity invites us all to the table, and through their new book, Ways of Eating, authors and storytellers Benjamin Wurgaft and Merry White are here to serve. Wurgaft and White aim to introduce readers to the interwoven worlds of global food history and food anthropology, exploring how we're not just what we eat, but where, why, and how we came to eat it in the first place. Throughout their collaborative work, Wurgaft and White embark on a world tour of anthropological accounts and vivid storytelling, paying visits to Panamanian coffee growers, Japanese knife forgers, and the medieval age of women brewing beer. Ways of Eating explores the influence of migration and politics in shaping both group identity and global culinary practices, from the Venetian spice trade to the Columbian Exchange to the parallels between ancient Roman garum and contemporary Vietnamese nớc chấm. There are as many dynamics at play across the world of food anthropology as spices in a well-stocked pantry, and Ways of Eating seeks to understand and follow them from the plate back to the kitchen, the farm, and the field. Co-authors Benjamin A. Wurgaft and Merry I. White are a son and mother duo with backgrounds in history, philosophy, anthropology, and the social study of food. Merry White is a Professor of Anthropology at Boston University, with a specialization in Japanese social and food culture. Their previous publications include White's Coffee Life in Japan and Wurgaft's Meat Planet: Artificial Flesh and the Future of Food. This is their first book written together. Born in New England, Peter Miller is a graduate of Williams College and Harvard Graduate School of Education. He moved to Seattle in November 1970, a time when one could rent a home from a nearby phone booth with the instructions, “the key is under the mat, I will come meet you this week.” In 1975, Miller opened a bookshop in Wallingford, with its first lecture series featuring Tom Robbins and Alan Furst. In 1980, he opened an architecture bookshop in Pioneer Square, relocating it to the market in 1983. Thirty years later, he moved again to Belltown, in association with George Suyama Architects. The shop is now situated in Pioneer Square between First Avenue and the water. Additionally, Miller served as a member of the Seattle Design Commission from 1998 to 2001. Peter has authored three books: Lunch at the Shop, Five Ways to Cook Asparagus, and How to Wash the Dishes, with a fourth book set to be released in May, titled Shopkeeping.   Buy the Book Ways of Eating: Exploring Food through History and Culture Third Place Books

Chapter 1 What's 1493 Book by Charles С. MannThe book "1493: Uncovering the New World Columbus Created" is written by Charles C. Mann. It was published in 2011 and explores the global impact of Columbus' arrival in the Americas in 1492. Mann examines the widespread ecological, economic, and cultural changes that occurred as a result of the Columbian Exchange, which refers to the exchange of plants, animals, diseases, and ideas between the Old World (Europe, Africa, and Asia) and the New World (the Americas). The book sheds light on how this exchange shaped the modern world and transformed societies on both sides of the Atlantic.Chapter 2 Is 1493 Book A Good Book"1493: Uncovering the New World Columbus Created" by Charles C. Mann is generally considered a well-researched and well-written book. It explores the global impact of Christopher Columbus' expeditions in 1492 and the subsequent exchange of goods, diseases, and ideas between the Old World and the New World. It offers an intriguing exploration of the interconnectedness of world history. Ultimately, whether or not it is a "good" book depends on your personal interests and preferences.Chapter 3 1493 Book by Charles С. Mann SummaryThe book "1493: Uncovering the New World Columbus Created" by Charles C. Mann explores the consequences of Christopher Columbus's voyages to the Americas in 1492. In this book, Mann seeks to challenge the common belief that Columbus's arrival in the Americas marked the beginning of European dominance in the New World.Mann argues that Columbus's voyages not only resulted in the exchange of goods, people, and diseases between the Old World and the New World but also created a complex, interdependent global network. He examines how Columbus's discovery of the Americas influenced the development of modern capitalism, the rise of global trade, the spread of diseases like smallpox, and the transformation of ecosystems.The book is divided into several sections, each examining a different aspect of the post-Columbian world. Mann explores the role of the Americas in the European economy, particularly the impact of American silver and American crops like tobacco, sugar, and potatoes. He also delves into the effects of the Columbian Exchange—the exchange of plants, animals, and diseases—on both the Old World and the New World.Mann argues that the introduction of American crops like maize and potatoes led to population growth in Europe and Asia. He also explores the devastating impact of diseases brought from Europe on Indigenous populations, estimating that as many as 95% of Native Americans died due to European diseases like smallpox.Furthermore, the book examines the ecological consequences of Columbus's voyages. Mann explores how the introduction of American plants and animals in various parts of the world drastically transformed ecosystems and influenced the development of agriculture. He also examines the effects of deforestation and the slave trade on the Americas.Throughout the book, Mann challenges the notion that Columbus's voyages were solely beneficial, arguing that they were a double-edged sword. While the exchange of goods and knowledge had positive effects, the book highlights the devastating consequences for Indigenous populations and the environment.In summary, "1493" by Charles C. Mann provides a comprehensive analysis of the wide-ranging effects of Columbus's voyages on the Americas and the world. It explores the economic, ecological, and social consequences of the Columbian Exchange, challenging traditional narratives of European dominance and emphasizing the complex interactions between different cultures and ecosystems.

For EMPIRE LINES' 100th episode, we join artist and filmmaker John Akomfrah to journey the Columbian Exchange, connecting continents from the 15th century, and contemporary port cities from Plymouth to Sharjah and Venice. The Columbian Exchange refers to the widespread transfer of plants, animals, goods, and people between the Americas, Afro-Eurasia and Europe - or the ‘Old' and ‘New World' - since the 1400s. With five screens, Arcadia considers these layered, overlapping journeys, travelling across stormy seas and sublime, epic landscapes. But these histories are also ‘interrupted' with symbolic images of trade, disease, and smallpox, highlighting the fatal, often ‘genocidal', nature of colonial encounters. Artist and filmmaker John Akomfrah talks about his intersectional, environmentally-engaged films, comparing previous works like Purple (2017) to this first ‘post-human project'. He connects historic viruses - often represented by Indigenous cultures in vivid oral and visual sources like Aztec codexes and ‘plague journals' - with his experience producing during the COVID pandemic. Drawing on his work with the Black Audio Film Collective, John shares his collaborative, ‘democratic' approach to filmmaking. And, 400 years since the Mayflower sailed from Plymouth to transport the Pilgrims to North America, we discuss the meaning of Arcadia's immersive cinematic display for the port city today. John Akomfrah: Arcadia runs at The Box in Plymouth runs at The Box in Plymouth until 2 June 2024. He will represent Great Britain at the Venice Biennale 2024⁠ in Italy from 20 April to 24 November 2024.

Emily discusses the Columbian Exchange and its world-wide impact.

Based on years of observation, ethnographic fieldwork, and countless shared meals, mother and son Merry White and Ben Wurgaft explore how our foods reach our plates and how every bite is part of a complex web of social meaning and value. From the Venetian spice trade to the Columbian Exchange, from Roman garum to Vietnamese nớc chấm, from the origins of agriculture to contemporary debates over culinary authenticity, they uncover new ways to understand food and the social rules that shape our meals.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

Greg Jenner is joined by Dr Caroline Dodds Pennock and comedian Desiree Burch in the 15th century to learn all about the Columbian Exchange which is often described as the start of globalisation. We go beyond the expeditions of Christopher Columbus to share the bigger story of a monumental exchange of plants, foods, animals, materials, people and culture across the continents. It's also a life lesson on why you shouldn't set sail with a couple of cougars aboard your ship!

https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/highlights-from-the-comments-on-columbus [Original post: A Columbian Exchange] 1: The most popular comments were those objecting to my paragraph about holidays replacing older holidays: All of our best holidays have begun as anti-holidays to neutralize older rites. Jesus was born in the spring; they moved Christmas to December to neutralize the pagan Solstice celebration. Easter got its name because it neutralized the rites of the spring goddess Eostre. Hanukkah was originally a minor celebration of a third-tier Bible story; American Jews bumped it up several notches of importance in order to neutralize Christmas. Starting with Christmas, Retsam says that there are three main theories - Adraste's plus two others: 1) March 25 + 9 months, 2) solstice symbolism, 3) co-opting paganism. (The earliest reference to this theory seems to be a millennium later in the 12th century) Apparently the logic for March 25 is that it was calculated to be the day that Jesus died (easier to calculate since it was Passover), and Jewish tradition held that great people lived for exact, whole number of years. (i.e. were conceived and died on the same day) This is somewhat convincing. But December 25 was literally the winter solstice on the Roman calendar (today the solstice is December 21st), and it really is suspicious that some unrelated method just happened to land on the most astronomically significant day of the year. Likewise, March 25 was the spring equinox, so the Annunciation date is significant in and of itself. (I guess if you're Christian you can believe that God chose to incarnate on that day because He liked the symbolism - although He must have been pretty upset when Pope Gregory rearranged the calendar so that it no longer worked). Jesus died two days before Passover, but Passover is linked to the Hebrew calendar and can fall on a variety of Roman calendar days. So the main remaining degree of freedom is how the early Christians translated from the (Biblically fixed) Hebrew date to the (not very clear) Roman date. This seems to have been calculated by someone named Hippolytus in the 3rd century, but his calculations were wrong - March 25 did not fall on a Friday (cf. Good Friday) on any of the plausible crucifixion years. Also, as far as I can tell, the relevant Jewish tradition is that prophets die on the same day they are born, not the same day they are conceived. For example, Moses was born on, and died on, the 7th of Adar (is it worth objecting that it should be the same date on the Hebrew calendar and not the Roman?) Maybe this tradition was different in Jesus' time? But it must be older than the split between Judaism and Islam - the Muslims also believe Mohammed died on his birth date. So although the Annunciation story is plausible, it's hard for me to figure out exactly how they got March 25 and December 25, and there's room for them to have fudged it to hit the Solstice, either to compete with pagans or just because the astronomically significant dates were impressive in their own rights. I guess I will downgrade to a 5% credence that competing with pagans was a significant factor in the date of Christmas. Moving on to Easter. Russell Hogg writes: You are entering a world of pain when you mention Eostre . . . https://historyforatheists.com/2017/04/easter-ishtar-eostre-and-eggs/ . We should have a ‘Debunk the Eostre Myth' day. It's already celebrated regularly by many people. And Feral Finster adds: Glad others decided to debunk that particular bit of midwit received wisdom. I get tired of doing so, over and over.

https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/a-columbian-exchange Adraste: Happy Indigenous People's Day! Beroe: Happy Columbus Day! Adraste: …okay, surely we can both sketch out the form of the argument we're about to have. Genocide, political correctness, moral progress, trying to destroy cherished American traditions, etc, etc, would you like to just pretend we hit all of the usual beats, rather than actually doing it? Beroe: Does “Columbus Day was originally intended as a woke holiday celebrating marginalized groups; President Benjamin Harrison established it in 1892 after an anti-Italian pogrom in order to highlight the positive role of Italians in American history” count as one of the usual beats by this point? Adraste: I would have to say that it does. Beroe: What about “Indigenous People's Day is offensive because indigenous peoples were frequently involved in slavery and genocide”? Adraste: I'm not sure I've heard that particular argument before. Beroe: But surely you can sketch it out. Many indigenous peoples practiced forms of hereditary slavery, usually of war captives from other tribes. Some of them tortured slaves pretty atrociously; others ceremonially killed them as a spectacular show of wealth. There's genetic and archaeological evidence of entire lost native tribes, most likely massacred by more warlike ones long before European contact. Some historians think that the Aztecs may have ritually murdered between 0.1% and 1% of their empire's population every year, although as always other historians disagree. I refuse to celebrate Indigenous People's Day, because I think we need to question holidays dedicated to mass murderers even when they're “traditional” or “help connect people to their history”.

What's the episode about? In this episode, hear Dr Trish Biers and Dr Katie Stringer Clary discuss museums, heritage, and death, the ethics of human display, curation and working in museums and heritage education. Who is Trish? Dr Trish Biers is the Collections Manager at the Level of Curator of the Duckworth laboratory (human and non-human primate remains and an archive) in the Centre for Human Evolutionary Studies in the Department of Archaeology at the University of Cambridge. She teaches in the Department about ethics, repatriation, treatment of the dead, mortuary archaeology, and osteology. She has excavated all over the world but specialises in mummies of South America. She is currently the Museum Representative, on the Board of Trustees, British Association for Biological Anthropology and Osteoarchaeology (BABAO) and organises their sub-group on the sale and trade of human remains. Her research interests include ancient and modern death work, mummy studies, osteoarchaeology and paleopathology, biomolecular archaeology, the Columbian Exchange, and museum studies focusing on displaying the dead, working with human remains, repatriation and ethics in archaeology. She is also involved in research about witchcraft, folklore, and archaeology. Trish is the ‘other-half' of MorMortisMuseum with Dr Katie Stringer-Clary. Who is Katie? Katie Stringer Clary, Ph.D., currently teaches history and public history at Coastal Carolina University in Conway, S.C. Since 2007, Clary worked with museums in various capacities from docent to executive director. In her time at museums and as a graduate student in Public History she focused on museum education and inclusion issues, especially for people with special needs. This research culminated in her 2014 manuscript, Programming for People with Special Needs: A Guide for Museums and Historic Sites. Through her work, she continues to advocate for accessibility, representation, and equality in museums and historic sites. Clary currently researches the ethics and historical contexts of human remains in museums, dark tourism and ghost tours at historic sites, and the roles death plays in the museum world. Museums, Heritage, and Death, co-edited with Dr. Trish Biers for Routledge Publishing is scheduled for release in 2023, and she also has two chapters in the volume. Clary works closely with community organizations to preserve and interpret the past. She is also interested in the history of museums, museum administration, digital histories, and community engagement. In her spare time, she likes to camp and hike, travel, and spend time with her dogs Harry Clary and Brutus, cat Miss Frances, and six chickens.

"Traditions are always things that are selected and dusted off from the past and embellished and sort of made into a collage of who we are and what represents us. What I wanted to capture with this book was the difference between that collage and the very important idea of tradition, with what people were actually eating." Karima Moyer-Nocchi, speaker, historian, professoressa and author of Chewing the Fat and The Eternal Table, discusses with us the sometimes shocking differences between the myths of Italian traditional foods and the true history. She also shares her heart about the vital importance of capturing the oral narratives of our elders before the generation of memory keepers from a unique time have left us.

Instead of explaining that every time they come up, the Foundational Series episodes will be referenced to fill in the background. You know what that means: less time with boring chatter and more of the interesting stories you've come to expect!   In this episode, we talk about the Columbian Exchange. This was the sharing of plants, animals, diseases and humans from the Old World and New World. What effects did this have on our history? Tune in to find out!

In this edition of A Bit of Culture, we have BFM producers Julian Yap and Michael Gong together with our host Kam Raslan. Beginning with the good old days, the trio analyzes a few different inventions in the yesteryear and try to decide its value today. Then, Kam steers the conversation back to the epoch of The Columbian Exchange, discussing the various contrasts in environmental turning points and cultural practices in the Old World to the New. Lastly, our trio ends with highlighting the advantages of being able to learn history through movies at present times - with that said, should a film always be historically accurate?-- 00:56 - Topic 1 - The Good Old Days 10:15 - Topic 2 - The Columbian Exchange 18:42 - Topic 3 - Learning History Through Movies

“One of the most famous, and consequential, journeys in the history of humanity was Christopher Columbus' fateful journey across the Atlantic Ocean in 1492…”So begins today's story from Dr. Sky Michael Johnston.For further reading:The Columbian Exchange: Biological and Cultural Consequences of 1492 by Alfred W.

I am excited because this will be the first of a three-part series that examines on THE DEVELOPMENT OF EXPLOITATIVE PRACTICES IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD, by focusing on the English colony of Virginia in episode two and the French colony of Louisiana in episode three.  This episode will provide the context for the Age of Exploration and the subsequent Columbian Exchange that significantly altered the political, economic, and social landscape of the Atlantic World. Western Europe was transformed as the maritime nations of Portugal, Spain, England, and France became economic powerhouses. African political and economic systems were not radically altered as trade with Europeans remained largely insignificant. Africans taken to the Americas as enslaved laborers undoubtedly experienced profound changes. The native populations of the Americas also experienced profound change. The pace and degree of change varied from place to place but their political, economic, and social systems would never return to what they were before European and African contact.  Please check out my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/ThreeMinutesofHistory/videos

Historian and New York Times and LA Times Best Selling author Timothy Wingard explains the massive impact the mosquito has had on human history. He begins with an overview of why certain mosquitos are so dangerous and details the specifics of how the insect draws blood. He then goes into the historical impact of the mosquito from the Ancient Greeks, Alexander the Great, the Roman Empire and even to on the spread of Christianity. Winegard explains how the mosquito even tamed the mighty Mongol hordes. He continues with the effects the mosquitoes had on the Columbian Exchange and the massive expansion of African slavery in the Americas. The mosquito has also impacted the British Empire and helped give birth to America with some help from George Washington the the other founders. He explains how the insect at first benefited the Confederacy during the Civil War, but during the last few years of the war was an advantage for the North. He finishes the discussion with the impact the mosquito had on WWII and how the overuse of DDT led to the insect adapting to make the pesticide obsolete.HOST: Rob MellonFEATURED BREW: Vicious Mosquito IPA, Sunriver Brewing Company, Sunriver, OregonBOOK: The Mosquito: A Human History of Our Deadliest Predatorhttps://www.amazon.com/Mosquito-Human-History-Deadliest-Predator/dp/1524743429/ref=sr_1_1?crid=10Q322X4R9QZW&dchild=1&keywords=the+mosquito&qid=1613523562&s=books&sprefix=the+mosqui%2Cstripbooks%2C172&sr=1-1MUSIC: Bones Fork

Today Zarela and Aarón welcome Andy Coe, author and scholar of culinary history, to discuss cacao and chocolate.

Happy Columbus Day, everybody! That is, if you’re one of the folks who still celebrates Columbus Day because, appropriate to today’s often contentious designation, we’re presenting the sixth and final segment of our “Conversations on Columbus” series exploring the life and legacy of Christopher Columbus! This week is our attempt to tie a nice big red-white-and-green ribbon around this complex discussion by bringing you the conclusions that host John Viola has drawn over the course of these six episodes and dozens of hours of interviews, research and contemplation around Columbus and his future in the American popular consciousness. We’ll examine what the debate around Columbus is really about… the man, the myth or the moment in time -- the Columbian Exchange, and how each of those facets to this complicated issue warrants a unique and patient exploration. If you’ve joined us for all five previous episodes, or if you’re finding us for the first time, we can certainly promise you an episode -- and a series -- that will leave you looking at Columbus and Columbus Day far more closely than before!

In this episode we will explore the causes of European exploration, the impact of the Colombian Exchange, the legacy of Spanish colonization, and most importantly - why the Medieval Times needs to update their menu.

The third installment in my Modern World History series, describing what happened when Europeans "discovered" the Americas.

Seth Archer from Utah State sits down with Merle and Lee to talk about the diseases that passed through the Columbian Exchange and their impact on Native Americans. Archer offers a broad take on how historians have written about diseases after the colonization of North America and then turns to his area of expertise: the impact of disease on Hawaii after the voyages of James Cook. He reveals how historians of disease can move past questions of demography to investigate cultural questions. At the end, he talks to the hosts about how Covid-19 has struck Native Americans today, connecting back to earlier episodes on the role of race and economic inequality in our current pandemic.

Dr. Justin Dunnavant always had a passion for history and it was only after a study abroad trip to a Mayan site in a rainforest in Belize did he discover his love for archaeology. During that trip he realized that a lot of early history books are written from an archaeological perspective but that balck, indigenous, and people of color were not doing the work. And so, he saw it as an opportunity to bring his background and unique experiences to make a contribution to a profession that lacks racial representation. Upon his return and learning that less than 1% of archaeologists identify as black, he became determined to open the door for other people of color in the realm of archaeology.This journey led him to co-found the Society of Black Archaeologists. Currently, Justin’s research focuses on the environmental implications of the slave trade and  slavery. He also conducts amazing underwater archeological research to investigate where slave ships landed, what courses they took and when. Ecology and Enslavement The natural environment is more entangled in slavery than most realize. Why were roughly 4.8 million Africans taken to the Caribbean and only 389,000 to the United States? Two main reasons, both involving the environment - Plantations were more common in Central America, where desired crops, mainly sugarcane, could be grown. The other reason being the trade winds that blow from Africa to Central America, which carried the slave ships and deposited them in the Caribbean, where they may have been later sold off to other areas. During the Transatlantic slave trade, swaths of land were cleared for agricultural production, port cities were established for import and export, and flora and fauna were transplanted across hemispheres in a process known as the Columbian Exchange, causing an immense amount of change to the ecology of the world. Justin and his team of archaeologists are on a mission to uncover the impacts of that change. Other Topics Our conversation with Justin is a true lesson in history. Covering topics from the history and intracicies of Caribbean slavery, to the importance of integrating diversity in archaeological projects, to the importance of trees, prepare yourself to be much more informed on the background of the transatlantic slave trade after this week’s episode of Breaking Green Ceilings.   About Dr. Justin Dunnavant: Dr. Justin Dunnavant is an Academic Pathways Postdoctoral Fellow at Vanderbilt University’s Spatial Analysis Research Laboratory. He holds a BA in History and Anthropology from Howard University and an MA and Ph.D. from the University of Florida. While his former research interrogated the history and representation of minority groups in southern Ethiopia, his current work in the US Virgin Islands investigates the relationship between ecology and enslavement in the former Danish West Indies. Justin is co-founder and President of the Society of Black Archaeologists, an AAUS Scientific SCUBA Diver, and consults for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture Slave Wrecks Project.

In this episode, we seek to understand how systems of trade, the Columbian Exchange, and the theory of mercantilism combined to create absolute monarchs in Europe. This is the first episode in our series about the Age of Absolutism. Listen to find out how Charles V, Phillip II, and the Spanish Armada affected the Spanish Empire and learn about the factors that began to weaken the empire as the Spanish faced incredible adversity. As Lord Acton stated, "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The hysteria surrounding the coronavirus hasn't reached its peak. It will when more cases show up in the United States. Hopefully, that won't happen, but if it does, expect the worst. But what if we thought locally and acted locally? Would a viral pandemic be possible? And how does the coronavirus fit within the history of the "Columbian Exchange"? I discuss all of these issues in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brion-mcclanahan/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brion-mcclanahan/support

In this this interview, Dr. Carrie Tippen talks with J. L. Anderson about the 2019 book Capitalist Pigs: Pigs, Pork, and Power in America published by West Virginia University Press. Anderson provides a history of pigs in America from the first arrival on the continent in the Columbian Exchange to the modern agribusiness of pork production, describing how we have “remade” the animal through breeding, feeding, medicating, legislating, and housing hogs. Despite the contemporary association between pork and the American South, Anderson describes how the centers of pork production and consumption have moved throughout American history in response to market changes, technological innovations, and transportation networks. The diet and housing of pigs has also evolved over time from seasonal free-range foraging in wooded areas (or even urban streets) to living in climate-controlled concrete pens and a non-seasonal diet. Similarly, Anderson describes how the place of pork in the hierarchy of edible meats changes over time. Colonial Americans largely adopted the English meat hierarchy of beef, mutton, and pork, with pork reserved for the working class and enslaved people. Though pork has replaced mutton in popularity, pork has always maintained its reputation as working people’s food. The later chapters of Capitalist Pigs argue that 20th-century Americans’ fear of fat resulted in a dramatic change in the body shape and biological make-up of the modern hog to invent a leaner “white meat.” Ironically, while the industry provided what it thought the market wanted, consumers didn’t change their pork eating habits that much, as the leaner pork was generally a much less desirable product. Trimming the fat from pork has led to the unexpected desirability of fattier cuts like bacon and pork belly in fine dining and the resurgence in “heritage breeds” of pigs with higher fat content. Anderson concludes by discouraging historians from interpreting the story of hogs in America as a success story of “transcending limits” in science, agriculture, and economics. “In short,” Anderson writes, “the success of pigs, pork, producers, and processors is not the whole story.” Joe Anderson is Associate Dean of Research, Scholarship and Community Engagement and history professor at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Dr. Anderson teaches a variety of courses from food and diet to the American Civil War and Reconstruction. Joe’s professional experience as a museum educator and administrator has led to a continuing interest in public history, and his recent projects have focused on the history of rural America, particularly as it relates to technology and the environment in the midcontinent. Joe is the past president of the Agricultural History Society and a member of the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada. Carrie Helms Tippen is Assistant Professor of English at Chatham University in Pittsburgh, PA, where she teaches courses in American Literature. Her 2018 book, Inventing Authenticity: How Cookbook Writers Redefine Southern Identity (University of Arkansas Press), examines the rhetorical strategies that writers use to prove the authenticity of their recipes in the narrative headnotes of contemporary cookbooks.

In this episode, we will learn about the Columbian Exchange. Don't forget to watch the other 2 episodes in this series. --Lesson 3--

History!!!!!!!

Information on the Columbian Exchange and how this exchange completely altered the new world!

In this episode, I look at "Summary of the Rights of British America" by Thomas Jefferson. I also jump into the first half of "Notes on the State of Virginia". So let's begin exploring his political ideas as well as what his thoughts on science, nature, the "Columbian Exchange" and Native Americans.

In 1493, Charles Mann shows us how Europeans emerged at the center of a modern, globalized world by establishing the Columbian Exchange; a system they created but could not control, and with consequences none of them could imagine. You can access all episodes of Context ad-free along with bonus content, including a 20-minute interview with author Charles Mann himself, by supporting the show on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/context or through the website at https://bradharris.com.

The first ever Mixed Mental Arts Meetup was in Columbus, Ohio. Drew Sample was amazing enough to come pick Hunter up from the “historic” Detroit neighborhood he was staying in and whisk him away to Columbus to meet the founders of MMA Meetups. This is the podcast they laid down.

Sometimes we don't realize where things actually originate. This episodes explores a couple of important things that traveled across continents during the Age of Exploration!

Columbus was an Italian-born navigator sailing for the Crown of Castile in search of a westward route to Asia, to access the sources of spices and other oriental goods. This led to the discovery of a New World between Europe and Asia. Columbus made a total of four voyages to the Americas between 1492 and 1502, setting the stage for the European exploration and colonization of the Americas, ultimately leading to the Columbian Exchange.

Columbus Day is a US federal holiday that is celebrated on the second Monday of October. Columbus Day remembers Christopher Columbus' arrival to the Americas on October 12, 1492. Indigenous Peoples Day is a holiday that celebrates the native peoples of North America. It began as a counter-celebration to Columbus Day. Indigenous Peoples Day promotes Native American culture and history. The Columbian Exchange was a widespread exchange of people, crops, and animals between the people of the "Old World" (Europe, Africa,and Asia) and the "New World" (North, Central, and South America) Tobacco, Cocoa, Maize, Tomatoes, and Potatoes came from the "New World." So do Avocados, Beans, Peanuts, Squash, and Turkeys. Wheat, Coffee, Horses, Rice, and Sugar came from the "Old World." So do Apples, Bananas, Cattle, Chickens, and Pigs. Celebrate our Common Table! Pop Quiz: Who lived in America before the Europeans arrived? What group of people was taken to America and sold as slaves? Name one American Indian tribe in the United States. What ocean is on the East Coast of the United States? Name two national U.S. holidays.

In this episode, Dave sits down with Lauren Janes, an assistant professor at Hope College in Holland, MI. We discuss her recently published book, her new project on using food case studies to illuminate key themes in world history (potatoes = Columbian Exchange, sugar = Trans-Atlantic slave trade, curry = imperialism, maize = US food aid and Green Revolution), the use of food in world history surveys, and her upper level seminar entitled “A Modern History of Global Food.” We discuss maize and GMOs in Zambia,  Mann’s writing on potatoes, the history of curry, tete de négre (a French dessert created in the late 19th century that you can read about here), the awesomeness of Sidney Mintz, the Algerian wine industry, refrigeration (using Freidburg’s book) and how to make our classes less depressing as we reach the 19th and 20th century.

This episode asks the question, was the Columbian Exchange good or bad? We feature multiple sources including Guns, Germs, and Steel, and 1493.

Columbus Day is a US federal holiday that is celebrated on the second Monday of October.    Columbus Day remembers Christopher Columbus' arrival to the Americas on October 12, 1492.   The Columbian Exchange was a widespread exchange of crops and animals between the people of the Old World and the New World.

This week on Let’s Get Real, Erica Wides “celebrates” Columbus Day by talking about the modern day Columbian Exchange: foodiness. Instead of smallpox, we have diabetes. Leave it to the Europeans to take corn from Native Americans and turn it into high fructose corn syrup and pour it down the throats of the masses! Tune into this episode to hear Erica Wides talk about her experiences taking food science classes, and how she felt she was being primed to be a secret agent for Foodiness, Inc. Hear about some of the wacky food inventions that Erica encountered such as pre-flavored grilling skewers or spinach powder. Look out! You almost fell down the foodiness rabbit hole! Check out this episode of Let’s Get Real! This episode has been brought to you by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons. “The foodiness megacorporations are all on the prowl and they’re all looking for real chefs these days because they want chefs to help them make foodiness that looks more like real food.” [22:09] — Erica Wides on Let’s Get Real

Carmen Devito and Alice Marcus Krieg are talking about the Columbian Exchange on this week’s episode of We Dig Plants. But don’t misconstrue this discussion as a celebration! On the phone is culinary horticulturist and historian Scott D. Appell to talk about the history of some our favorite New World plants. Learn about the origins of corn, and how it developed as a human-bred crop. How did European settlers influence Native American cooking techniques? Learn about the history of other fruits, roots, and vegetables such as pineapple, mango, cassava, and taro. Did you know that at one time, pineapples were more valued than jewels? Also, hear about the hundreds of varieties of potatoes that developed in South America, and how potatoes became popular in France! This episode has been brought to Hearst Ranch. “Guatemalans and Mexicans had this down for thousands of years. If you balance beans with corn, you’ll have balanced proteins and amino acids.” [11:40] “It was the slave trade that was the great impetus to bring food plants to the New World from the tropics. After all, how do you feed millions of people over the centuries… so that they could work and harvest sugarcane?” [21:40] — Scott D. Appell on We Dig Plants
