Description: Jen first met Tressie McMillan Cottom the way most normal people meet – under the bright lights on the set of an Oprah special, invited by Ms. Winfrey to speak on a panel, along with other influential voices including Rebel Wilson, Amber Riley, Katie Sturino, Jamie Kern Lima, Busy Philipps and others to talk about diet culture, the harmful narratives we have surrounding our weight and our bodies, and how we can begin reframing the conversation away from one centered in shame to one focused on body acceptance. The entire studio was gobsmacked by Tressie which is fitting given that she is a prominent cultural commentator and Professor at UNC Chapel Hill. Her work explores the loaded and nuanced ideas like racial capitalism, beauty standards, the exploitation of higher education systems, but in a way that we ordinary Joe's can understand. We knew immediately that she was destined to be a guest on our show and today is the day. Segments: Bless & Release: The News Cycle *** Thought-provoking Quotes: I think every life has a trauma so there's nothing really special about mine. But whatever your trauma is, you are usually faced with a decision, which is, do I want to be who I was before this or am I going to be something different? – Tressie McMillan Cottom I love really hard questions. I am my happiest, most connected, most joyful, when I am trying to disentangle a really hard social problem that I think everybody has got wrong. I'm really attracted to those things where our beliefs are totally counter-intuitive, where our gut is telling us something is there but the picture is fuzzy, and I think I'm attracted to that because my path was so abnormal and so unique and I know that I wouldn't have existed if people had just gone along with what was supposed to be. – Tressie McMillan Cottom I thought my grandmothers sounded as intelligent as my professors and so I really struggled with the idea that there was something counterfeit or illegitimate about them and their stories and the things that I had learned from them. - Tressie McMillan Cottom History is weirdly comforting when we can look at our worst impulses and know this isn't the first time we've faced this level of chaos and inequality and systemic injustice. It's just our generation's turn. – Jen Hatmaker Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Leave us a voicemail- https://jenhatmaker.com/podcast/ Click the “Send Voicemail” tab on the right side of the page Pantsuit Politics - https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/ Allison Gill - https://allisongill.com/ The Daily Beans | News with Swearing - https://www.dailybeanspod.com/ Lower Ed: The Troubling Rise of For-Profit Colleges in the New Economy by Tressie McMillan Cottom - https://amzn.to/4hv6dPF Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie McMillan Cottom - https://amzn.to/3Co8gWX Dr. Tressie McMillan Cottom's New York Times newsletter - https://www.nytimes.com/by/tressie-mcmillan-cottom Tressie's MacArthur Fellowship - https://www.macfound.org/fellows/class-of-2020/tressie-mcmillan-cottom Oprah + Weight Watchers: Making the Shift special - https://www.weightwatchers.com/makingtheshift/?srsltid=AfmBOortVultNvf8Oy7KWezSW1X6uVsvMm9ziScOvAzxUg3XsWQ_2H44 Guest's Links: Dr. Cottom's website - https://tressiemc.com/ Dr. Cottom's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tressiemcphd/ Dr. Cottom's Twitter - https://x.com/tressiemcphd Dr. Cottom's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tressiemcmillancottom/ Dr. Cottom's podcast - https://tressiemc.com/podcast/  Connect with Jen!

NYT columnist and sociologist Tressie McMillan Cottom and scholar Eddie Glaude Jr. reflect on the struggle for civil rights and what it means to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the same day that President Donald Trump is sworn into office. "Perhaps the juxtaposition of seeing Donald Trump preside over the official state memorialization of Martin Luther King will remind us of our responsibility to remembering King as he actually was ... as he was a philosopher, an organizer of the people," Cottom says.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Love it or hate it, self-care has transformed from a radical feminist concept into a multibillion-dollar industry. But the wellness boom doesn't seem to be making a dent in Americans' stress levels. In 2021, 34 percent of women reported feeling burned out at work, along with 26 percent of men.Dr. Pooja Lakshmin, a psychiatrist, has observed how wellness culture fails her patients, who she says are often burned out because of systemic failures, from the stresses that come with financial precariousness to the lack of paid family leave. In her book “Real Self-Care: A Transformative Program for Redefining Wellness (Crystals, Cleanses, and Bubble Baths Not Included),” she encourages people to look beyond superficial fixes — the latest juice cleanses, yoga workshops, luxury bamboo sheets — to feel better. Instead, she argues that real self-care requires embracing internal work, which she outlines as four practices: setting boundaries, practicing self-compassion, aligning your values and exercising power. Lakshmin argues that when you practice real self-care, you not only take care of yourself, but you can also plant the seeds for change in your community.In this conversation, the guest host, Tressie McMillan Cottom, and Lakshmin discuss how the pandemic opened up a larger conversation about parental burnout; how countries with more robust social safety nets frame care as a right, not a benefit; why it's fair to understand burnout as a type of societal “betrayal”; how to practice boundary-setting and why it can feel uncomfortable to do so; the convenient allure of “faux self-care”; and more.This episode was hosted by Tressie McMillan Cottom, a columnist for Times Opinion, a professor at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and the author of “Thick: And Other Essays.” Cottom also writes a newsletter for Times Opinion that offers a sociologist's perspective on culture, politics and the economics of our everyday lives.Mentioned:More information about Ezra's Jefferson Memorial Lecture“We Don't Need Self-Care; We Need Boundaries” by Pooja Lakshmin“How Society Has Turned Its Back on Mothers” by Pooja Lakshmin“Our Obsession With Wellness Is Hurting Teens — and Adults” by The Ezra Klein Show with Lisa Damour“A Legendary World Builder on Multiverses, Revolution and the ‘Souls' of Cities” by The Ezra Klein Show with N.K.

Public libraries around the country have become major battlegrounds for today's culture wars. In 2022, the American Library Association noted a record 1,269 attempts at censorship — almost double the number recorded in 2021. Library events like drag story times and other children's programming have also attracted protest. How should we understand these efforts to control what stories children can freely access?Emily Drabinski is the president of the American Library Association and an associate professor at the Queens College Graduate School of Library and Information Studies. She is steering an embattled organization at a moment when libraries — and librarians themselves — are increasingly under fire.[You can listen to this episode of “The Ezra Klein Show” on the NYT Audio App, Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google or wherever you get your podcasts.]This conversation unpacks the political and cultural anxieties fueling the attacks on libraries. The guest host Tressie McMillan Cottom discusses with Drabinski how libraries are a bulwark against the increasing class divides of American life, how the “small infrastructure” of the public library differs from big infrastructure like highways and bridges, how library classification systems can entrench the status quo, the parallels between political attacks on the library and the U.S. Postal Service, how censorship attempts fit in the broader landscape of anti-queer and anti-trans legislation and much more.This episode was hosted by Tressie McMillan Cottom, a columnist for Times Opinion, a professor at U.N.C.

Spéciale Jean Dubuffet Focus sur le peintre, sculpteur et plasticien français, fondateur du mouvement de l'art brut (productions de personnes exemptes de culture artistique). L'expo "Jean Dubuffet. Le preneur d'empreintes" a lieu tout cet été et jusqu'en janvier 2021 à La Louvière. "Sa vie par procuration" de Myriam Leroy. Focus sur l'expo "Jean Dubuffet. Le preneur d'empreintes", à voir au Centre de la gravure et de l'image imprimée à La Louvière jusqu'à janvier 2021. Une exposition réalisée avec le concours de la Fondation Dubuffet à Paris. On en parle avec : - Sophie Webel, directrice de la Fondation Dubuffet à Paris - Catherine de Braekeleer (c'est sa dernière expo après 25 années à la direction du Centre de la Gravure) Artiste insaisissable et polémique, Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985) est un acteur majeur de la scène artistique de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle. Fasciné par le papier, l'encre et l'imprimerie, l'estampe est profondément liée à son œuvre peinte. L'exposition Jean Dubuffet. Le preneur d'empreintes offre une plongée exceptionnelle dans les expérimentations lithographiques de l'artiste. Elle se déploie en deux temps. La série des Phénomènes, véritable atlas des phénomènes naturels du monde, constitue le cœur de l'exposition. Chaque planche célèbre un aspect du monde naturel renforcée encore par les titres poétiques que Dubuffet leur donna. La seconde section dévoile les recherches qui ont précédé et annoncé ce cycle unique dans l'histoire de l'estampe du xxe siècle. De la série des Murs de 1945 aux Assemblages d'empreintes de 1953, le processus de création de l'artiste aboutira aux savoureuses figures à chapeau de 1962 issues des Phénomènes. 300 œuvres (lithographies, peintures, livres, assemblages...), toute la diversité de Jean Dubuffet faisant de l'invention sans cesse renouvelée le pilier de la création et de la pensée. La « Bagarre » s'agrandit au cinéma et à la littérature et on vous propose aussi un petit quiz musical et de culture générale. Avec Myriam Leroy et Jacques De Pierpont.

This week's episode is called “Everything Is Terrible.” We couldn't help it. In this episode, we run down all the things that terrible for women right now, and unfortunately - it's a lot. We discuss why it's important to discuss things that aren't positive, keeping the powerful in check and recognizing the work and challenges that women have experienced.  We discuss sexual harassment and assault and criminal justice, women not being believed by doctors, a terrible list by Forbes, and why we're more likely to die in car accidents, and then we do get to some good news: women being seen as competent, women's groups shoring up political power, and great books and good TV to look forward to.

On this episode of our podcast, we discuss “Thick And Other Essays” by Tressie McMillan Cottom. It is an important narrative that challenges ideas of societal norms, authenticity voice and contours and impact of racism and sexism. When we tell our stories we not only affirm one another but we also claim the space of resistance to the systems of oppression that keep both seek to dampen those precious lights within us.

Dr. Cottom also discusses how her fashion choices armor her, and how she manages stupidity on- and off-line. Check it out! You can find "Thick" everywhere books are sold.

Owen Cottom - The Great Commission

More than two million students are enrolled in for-profit colleges, from the small family-run operations to the behemoths brandished on billboards, subway ads, and late-night commercials. These schools have been around just as long as their bucolic not-for-profit counterparts, yet shockingly little is known about why they have expanded so rapidly in recent years—during the so-called Wall Street era of for-profit colleges. In Lower Ed Tressie McMillan Cottom—a bold and rising public scholar, herself once a recruiter at two for-profit colleges—expertly parses the fraught dynamics of this big-money industry to show precisely how it is part and parcel of the growing inequality plaguing the country today. McMillan Cottom discloses the shrewd recruitment and marketing strategies that these schools deploy and explains how, despite the well-documented predatory practices of some and the campus closings of others, ending for-profit colleges won’t end the vulnerabilities that made them the fastest growing sector of higher education at the turn of the twenty-first century. And she doesn’t stop there. With sharp insight and deliberate acumen, McMillan Cottom delivers a comprehensive view of postsecondary for-profit education by illuminating the experiences of the everyday people behind the shareholder earnings, congressional battles, and student debt disasters. The relatable human stories in Lower Ed—from mothers struggling to pay for beauty school to working class guys seeking “good jobs” to accomplished professionals pursuing doctoral degrees—illustrate that the growth of for-profit colleges is inextricably linked to larger questions of race, gender, work, and the promise of opportunity in America. Drawing on more than one hundred interviews with students, employees, executives, and activists, Lower Ed tells the story of the benefits, pitfalls, and real costs of a for-profit education. It is a story about broken social contracts; about education transforming from a public interest to a private gain; and about all Americans and the challenges we face in our divided, unequal society.

Jennifer Berkshire and Jack Schneider talk to Tressie McMillan Cottom about the rise of for-profit colleges, and *risky* higher ed that saddles low-income students with debt and questionable credentials. And we discuss the growing push to make K-12 similarly risky. Cottom is the author of Lower Ed and her sharp, insightful take on why markets and schooling don't match is a must hear.

Special guest Tressie McMillan Cottom joins the podcast to discuss her new book: "Lower Ed: The Troubling Rise of For-Profit Colleges in the New Economy." Also, Libby has already seen "The Americans" Season 5 and Northwestern basketball is good this year for the first time ever.

http://www.thegrio.com/2009/09/young-911-victim-leaves-behind-legacy-of-scholars.php On September 11, 2001, 11-year-old Asia Cottom was headed to California. She had been selected to attend a National Geographic Society ecology conference with other talented young students from around the country. Tragically, terrorists hijacked Cottom's plane and crashed into the Pentagon. No passengers survived. "My mind can't even fathom where [Asia] might be right now," said Michelle Cottom, Asia's mother. "Education was her thing, so the boundaries are endless." Asia's parents quickly created a scholarship fund in her name to provide financial assistance to college-bound students. The Asia SiVon Cottom Memorial Scholarship Fund has raised about $75,000 for more than a dozen students since 2002. Recipients receive a financial award their first year of college, in addition to other forms of assistance throughout their time in school. "It's not just a scholarship, it's not about money," said Clifton Cottom, Asia's father. "It's about family. I think we try to put family in everything we do." The scholarship and family support is helping young students like Lawrence Pulliam. Pulliam, 19, attends Montgomery College in Rockville, Md. He is enrolled in the college's computer gaming and simulation program. "[Asia] was a joyous person, liked to smile, liked to have fun," said Pulliam, who grew up with up with her. "[She] always put a smile on my face." Pulliam said he is determined to make the Cottom family proud by excelling at his schoolwork. "[The scholarship fund] is an opportunity for others to get an education and improve the quality of their lives," Pulliam said. "I think it's a great way to honor a life lost by helping others." Pulliam said he hopes to finish up his time at Montgomery, before transferring to University of Baltimore, where he will pursue a bachelors degree in digital simulation and entertainment. "I'm laying my foundation here [at Montgomery College]," Pulliam said. "I'm not done. [The scholarship] drives me to work hard."
