Nearly one in three Black Californians has received inadequate treatment for pain or otherwise been unfairly treated by a health care provider because of their race or ethnicity. That's according to a new study from the California Health Care Foundation, which also found that 26 percent of Black Californians have at least once decided not to seek medical care because they expected disrespect or unjust treatment. When it comes to addressing the problem, 80 percent of those surveyed said it is important to increase the number of Black healthcare workers and Black-led, community-based clinics. We'll talk about how the health care system could better serve its Black patients and hear your experiences.

This week's episode on LEAVE YOUR MARK is really important to me. My guest is Carly Pildis, Director of Community Engagement for the ADL (Anti-Defamation League). The ADL fights all forms of antisemitism and bias, using innovation and partnerships to drive impact. They are a global leader in countering extremism and battling bigotry to protect democracy and ensure an inclusive society. Carly has dedicated her career to fighting for justice and equality on a global and national scale. All four of my grandparents survived the Holocaust camps. They witnessed and persevered through the horror in several extermination camps in Poland and were ultimately liberated from Aushvitz. I don't consider myself a political person, and I am not an activist. Still, the recent public antisemitic incidents have made me feel responsible for using my platforms to educate on this. The media largely ignore antisemitism; if it is covered, it's usually covered incorrectly. Carly Pildis is highly educated on this subject, and I hope you'll listen to this episode with an open mind. We all come from different perspectives, but I firmly believe in supporting everyone. But there are a lot of extremes at play right now, and we know that when things go to the extreme, whether at the far right or the far left, nothing good comes of it. I think you will learn a lot if you listen to the whole episode. Thank you in advance for your attention. In this episode, Carly shares the demands of her role, educates on the forms of antisemitism, why it's critical to abolish it, and behind the scenes of the ADL tackling some of the biggest headlines of late. She sheds light on one of the real misnomers about antisemitism which is that it only affects Jews. Antisemitism is hugely corrosive to democracy. "You'll see very well-meaning people be like, I support tolerance and support people of all faiths, and you're like, well, that's not really what antisemitism is. Antisemitism isn't about faith. It's about picking a group of people, an ethnic group, Jews, and blaming them for the world's ills, and sometimes that ends in violence or discrimination." The ADL's Never is Now is the largest antisemitism conference in the world. It's happening on November 10th at the Javits Center. If you're thinking about antisemitism, want to learn about antisemitism, wanting to know what you can do about antisemitism, you can learn more here. Thank you for listening, Aliza

Professionalism isn't for our safety, it's to contain us, constrain us, assimilate us into a white narrative. And so how do we fight back? How do we allow our culture to wash over us and restore us? As we sit and conversate with Joana (she/ela), a former nanny turned DEI practioner who hails from Brazil, we chat about how we can raise and rear children from the joys and strengths of their culture. Join us as we hear lessons and stories from Brazil. Since meeting over 5 years ago at Hilltop Children's Center and Educator Institute in Seattle, WA (Coast Salish Territory), Nick Terrones (he/him) and Mike Browne (he/him) have been working towards a critical reimagination of ECE spaces for BIPOC educators and youth. In 2020, they teamed up to deliver a podcast titled Napcast, where they explore the intersection of early childhood education with race, identity, and culture. Now in new roles, Nick as the Program Director of Daybreak Star Preschool at United Indians of All Tribes, and Mike, Sr. Director of Community Engagement at Cultivate Learning, they combine their experience from their time in the classroom with their insights as ECE leaders in order to challenge your perspective on the ways we teach, play, and love society's youngest citizens.

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Finalsite (new home of Blackboard K-12).The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.According to 89% of district administrators, the pandemic and the resulting disruptions to traditional education have significantly and sustainably changed K-12 education. The steps undertaken to support continuity of learning have left an indelible mark on the ways teachers teach, parents engage, administrators lead, and students learn. In this year's annual Speak Up Congressional Briefing, we share the latest national research findings to support this conclusion that the long tail impact of the pandemic and the resulting shifts to more technology-based instruction have forever changed our schools – and there is no going back to the past despite any lingering nostalgia for how education was prior to March 2020. During the 2021-22 school year, over 75,000 K-12 stakeholders participated in the Speak Up Research Project representing urban, rural and suburban schools and districts across the country. Their insights and perspectives on how school has changed over the past few years – and what is needed to improve learning experiences for all students is important information for everyone to hear. The 2022 Speak Up Congressional Briefing provides a unique opportunity for participation by a wide audience of K-12 education stakeholders. The research data comes to life with a panel of K-12 students from around the country who respond to the findings and provide their own recommendations for improving American education. Other speakers include Kristina Ishmael, Deputy Director of the Office of Ed Tech in the US Department of Education, and Lee Blakemore, President, K-12 Community Engagement at Finalsite, the sponsor of this year's Congressional Briefing. This edWeb podcast is of high interest to school and district leaders, teachers, librarians, policymakers, and all who are interested in the potential of K-12 stakeholder ideas including from students to improve education.Finalsite Helping schools prepare students to be successful and make the world a better place

Mike Montague has discovered the fountain of youth. After realizing that he had done a lot of things on the “adult checklist” Mike wondered if retirement was the only thing he had to look forward to - after 25 more years of Groundhog Days. He didn't want to sacrifice and grind and hope that it would pay off someday. Instead, he wanted to enjoy the present. After some introspection and a little research, Mike realized that play and being in a playful state is how we can find sustainable happiness and motivation. So why did we stop taking recess after grade school? Guest Bio Mike Montague is the Director of Community Engagement at Sandler. He is also a game show host, public speaker, podcaster, and writer at Playful Humans. He has been a radio DJ, karaoke host, virtual game show host, MC, and DJ for live events including opening for Billy Idol, Frankie Valli, and MC-ed at Toby Keith's Bar & Grill. Playful Humans is a community designed to help the burned-out and bored get re-energized and engaged with life. His mission is to help adults discover the power of playing for a living and how to avoid a midlife crisis. Find out more at https://www.playfulhumans.com (www.playfulhumans.com). Playful Humans Mike Montague's current project is called Playful Humans and playfulness is something he's working to cultivate in his life. He believes that most people who are trying to live an authentic life are usually trying to solve a problem for other people that they face themselves. For Mike, he needed to be more playful, so he decided to try to help others with that as well.  Mike thinks the getting-older process sucks. He says it's a lot like going bald. It's cool if you're bald, it's cool if you have hair, but it's the “-ding” that gets you in trouble. Bald-ing is not cool for anybody, says Mike who started shaving his head  when he was 30.  He feels similar about turning 40. The getting older part kind of sucks because you realize "Yesterday I could sneeze without hurting myself. What happened? I hurt myself sleeping. I woke up with a crick in my neck. This is not cool!" Just before he turned 40, Mike had a kidney stone that got stuck and found out that he had a weird, genetic kidney condition that usually affects children. He ended up in the hospital with a stint in his ureter. He had to cancel a business trip to London and make a presentation virtually, instead of in person. All of which woke him up to the fact that he had to start taking care of himself better than he had as a younger man.    Midlife CrisisBetween his kidney stone, a 40th birthday dinner that wasn't well attended and the pandemic, Mike feels like it all came together as a midlife crisis of sorts. Even before the pandemic, though, he had started feeling like things weren't working very well. He climbed enough of the corporate ladder to know that the only thing left was more ladder, and that it wasn't leaning on anything solid. He came away thinking there wasn't anything interesting up there.  If you like the continuous pursuit and stress of trying to earn more and make more and get more power and move up in the world, Mike says there is enough for you for the rest of your life. As a kid, Mike played a lot of competitive sports and it was fun because the game ended or the season ended and you won or you lost. There was an end to it. But as an adult, that striving, competing is non-stop. There is no end to the game or season. There is no final exam or summer break as there is in school. When he realized that, he started to reevaluate, to think about sustainability, to wonder when there was time to be happy. He didn't want to spend the rest of his life doing sprints and burning himself out.  It was during that thought process that he came across research about playing and a lightbulb went off.  Mike has always been playful and creative. He likes to geek out on things, to make things and perform and all...

Producers Ryan and Katerina report on what makes a show or concert accessible to the deaf community and they look at, and try on, some technology from Music: Not Impossible that could help make attending concerts and experiencing music more accessible. Music Not Impossible created what they call “Haptic Suits,” specifically designed for the deaf and hard of hearing. The suits are used to translate music into vibrations that people can then feel throughout their entire body, which can provide a greater connection to music for deaf and hard of hearing communities, and break down barriers between hearing and deaf concert-goers. They spoke with a number of guests about this cutting-edge technology that's making the experience of music accessible for all. Guests: Jeff Rosen, who is a Grateful Dead fan, and a Deafhead (which is what people who are deaf and also Grateful Dead fans, call themselves). Jeff was also the Chairman of the National Council on Disability under the Obama Administration and is now the general legal counsel for a company called Convo Communications LLC. We spoke to Jeff about the history of accessibility at Grateful Dead shows and what it means to have an accessible concert or venue.   Paddy Hanlon is a co-founder of Music: Not Impossible and a Vibro DJ. He gave our producers a demo of their Haptic Suits at Nublu 151 in the East Village, New York.    Alberto Madero, an ASL sign language interpreter, and his mother Merry Cuascut (Alberto interpreted for his mother), about their experience trying on Music: Not Impossible's Haptic Suits at Lincoln Center's Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra this summer.   Shelly Guy through an ASL interpreter about her experience trying on Music: Not Impossible's Haptic Suits at Lincoln Center's "An Evening of Access Magic

Philosophy scholar and author Willow Verkerk sits down with Am Johal to discuss Nietzsche and his ideas of friendship, as well as her current work on the Gendered Mimesis project at KU Leuven. Willow compares Nietzsche's more agonistic notion of friendship with other philosophers like Aristotle, Kant, Derrida – and draws from Luce Irigaray to consider friendship from a more gendered lens. Willow also speaks about her creative writing in the past as a form of expression, and discusses her current work on Gendered Mimesis Project, from which she is looking to trace the genealogies of gendered-being by drawing from Adriana Cavarero, Judith Butler, and Catherine Malabou.

Her current research is concerned with providing a new account of the human subject through the philosophical concept of mimesis. Dr. Verkerk is frequently invited to speak about her research at universities and art institutions.
