In this episode of Flavors Unknown, Emmanuel Laroche sits down with David Skinner, James Beard–recognized chef and founder of Ishtia, to explore the deep intersection of heritage, excellence, and emotional memory. David's story does not begin in a boardroom. It begins in his grandmother's kitchen—standing beside a pastry chef, breathing in the scent of cakes and cookies fresh from the oven. Those early sensory memories shaped not just his palate, but his philosophy: food is not performance. It is connection. At Ishtia, Skinner reinterprets Choctaw culinary traditions through a modern fine-dining lens. Corn, beans, squash—the foundational ingredients of Indigenous foodways—become vessels for storytelling. But this is not nostalgia. It is restoration. It is education. It is evolution without erasure. What you’ll learn from Chef David Skinner The emotional power of flavor and scent Why Native American cuisine deserves broader recognition The challenge of preserving authenticity while innovating His departure from food into finance—and what pulled him back The responsibility of telling Indigenous stories in contemporary spaces The science of smell and sensory immersion in dining The tension between creative freedom and operational reality What is the cost of excellence? Can fine dining become a vehicle for cultural restoration? How do you modernize tradition without diluting it? And what does it mean to return to your roots after building success elsewhere?

Navy veteran Dr. Theodore Roosevelt Johnson, his family name a legacy first chosen to honor the new possibilities for Black Americans many presidents ago, writes about a football game when he stood during the National Anthem and his son—on the field as a player—chose to kneel. Both, he argues, are acts of love of country. Ted's life, service and scholarship are a love letter to America—both when he confronts our failure and takes pride in our accomplishments. Now Ted leads New America's Us@250 initiative which "seeks to reimagine the American narrative with a focus on three themes: pride in the nation's progress, reckoning with historical and contemporary wrongs, and aspiration for a better future."

ANTHROPOLOGY REGENERATES CULTURE. Simone Verde is a museologist and art historian who was appointed Director of the Uffizi Galleries in Florence, Italy, in December 2023, replacing Eike Schmidt who moved to Capodimonte. From 2014 to 2016 Simone Verde was head of scientific research at the Louvre in Abu Dhabi, and from 2016 to 2023 he directed the Complesso Monumentale della Pilotta in Parma, Italy, whose total restoration and refurbishment he completed. Verde studied Theoretical Philosophy in Rome and Paris, has a doctorate in Anthropology of Cultural Heritage, and a degree in Museology and Art History at the École du Louvre. "The strength of art, of heritage, is its capacity to regenerate itself through centuries and time and cultures." "The icons of the museum are promoted by social media, and this is both an opportunity and a problem." "We have to be a universal museum in terms of audiences. That makes the work we do much more complicated."

Between the nineteenth century and today, colonial officials, collectors, and anthropologists dismembered African buildings and dispersed their parts to museums in Europe and the United States. Most of these artifacts were cataloged as ornamental art objects, which erased their intended functions, and the removal of these objects often had catastrophic consequences for the original structures. Africa's Buildings: Architecture and the Displacement of Cultural Heritage (Princeton UP, 2025) traces the history of the collection and distribution of African architectural fragments, documenting the brutality of the colonial regimes that looted Africa's buildings and addressing the ethical questions surrounding the display of these objects.Dr. Itohan Osayimwese ranges across the whole of Africa, from Egypt in the north to Zimbabwe in the south, and spanning the western, central, and eastern regions of the continent. She describes how collectors employed violent means to remove elements such as columns and door panels from buildings, and how these methods differentiated architectural collecting from conventional collecting. She shows how Western collectors mischaracterized building components as ornament, erasing their architectural character and concealing the evidence of their theft. Dr. Osayimwese discusses how the very act of displacing building parts like floor tiles and woven screen walls has resulted in a loss of knowledge about their original function and argues that because of these removals, scholars have yet to fully grasp the variety and character of African architecture.Richly illustrated, Africa's Buildings uncovers the vast scale of cultural displacement perpetrated by the West and proposes a new role for museums in this history, one in which they champion the repatriation of Africa's architectural heritage and restitution for African communities. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Silvia Zanelli"Deleuze con Peirce"Un equivoco impossibileOrthotes Editricewww.orthotes.comDeleuze, con tutta probabilità, non lesse mai direttamente la sconfinata opera di Peirce ed ebbe accesso solo ad un “Peirce di seconda mano”, attraverso le antologie di Gérard Deledalle. Proporre di lavorare all'intersezione fra Deleuze e Peirce non può che configurarsi dunque come un equivoco, e nella fattispecie come un equivoco ermeneutico. Se quello tra Deleuze e Peirce è in linea di principio un incontro impossibile, è proprio a partire da questa radicale discontinuità che ci sarà occasione di evidenziare delle soglie di continuità. A nostro modo di vedere Deleuze non dispone di una semiotica di stampo peirceano. Porremo dunque sullo sfondo quello che Deleuze ha scritto su Peirce nei suoi testi sul cinema per attualizzare invece ciò che in riferimento a Peirce è rimasto impensato nella penna di Deleuze. Ci avventureremo così nella “libreria concettuale” del non pensato deleuziano per riattivarne alcuni nodi problematici, nell'alleanza con Peirce. Il tentativo è quello di tenere insieme l'aspirazione cosmologica con cui entrambi guardano al reale, nonché una nuova immagine del pensiero, che vive nel rapporto mutuale fra virtualità e attualità, ovvero fra generalità ed individuazione. Il testo è un gioco concettuale che senza prendere troppo sul serio cosa Deleuze e Peirce hanno effettivamente detto, si colloca nel mezzo fra i due pensatori, con l'obiettivo di mostrare fino a che punto questa doppia deformazione possa reggere, dandoci alcuni indizi su come abitare il nostro contemporaneo.Una delle linee minori che attraversa, come un azzardo teoretico, tanto il pensiero di Peirce quanto quello di Deleuze è la necessità di proporre una visione globale e al contempo aperta del reale, unita alla complementare urgenza di offrire il terreno per una tale apertura entro un quadro che sia quello di una cosmologia in atto, colta nel suo divenire e di cui è fondamentale il senso di illimitatezza e crescita.Il tema della cosmologia in filosofia trova spazio per antonomasia ai margini del pensiero moderno, come una mosca bianca, e rappresenta una tappa minore presso cui soggiornare: all'ombra della metafisica e ai bordi dell'ontologia, sovvertendo i cardini della prima ed espandendo i confini della seconda, la cosmologia rappresenta cioè un terreno del pensiero di cui è ancora necessario comprendere la potenza, in senso spinoziano.La cosmologia ha un'esistenza chimerica, un carattere ibrido e una vocazione paradossale per il tutto, l'intero e la sua costitutiva e contradditoria apertura. Essa pensa al limite e il limite del pensiero, nella sua illimitatezza. Pensare l'universo o la dimensione naturante della natura – compito in linea di principio impossibile – significa mapparne l'articolazione aperta ed evenemenziale, seguirne le tracce, gli sviluppi e l'evoluzione, nella consapevolezza che non sia possibile ridurre l'universo ad un inerte e cristallizzato oggetto (di studi).Silvia Zanelli (Milano 1995), PhD in filosofia, è attualmente assegnista di ricerca presso l'Università di Bologna nell'ambito del progetto “Cult-up. Upcycling and Cultural Heritage”. I suoi interessi di ricerca riguardano il pensiero di Gilles Deleuze, di Charles Sanders Peirce e di Gilbert Simondon, con particolare attenzione per il rapporto tra pre-individualità ed individuazione. Al tema ha dedicato la monografia Con-fini. Deleuze, Simondon e il problema dell'individuazione (Roma 2023) e vari articoli scientifici.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Cultural heritage, a challenging mentor and the bridge between free expression and disciplined practice. Regina Linke is an illustrator and writer dedicated to celebrating traditional Chinese art and philosophy in a modern way. Regina's childhood interest in drawing was initially stifled by rigid instruction, and she went on to study business in college followed by a career in international development. It wasn't until a move to Taiwan, her parents' homeland, that she reconnected with her artistic passion.In Taiwan, Regina immersed herself in traditional Chinese brush painting. Despite an initial struggle with the structured learning environment, she credits her critical teacher with pushing her to develop a unique artistic voice, one that blends her Western upbringing with Eastern aesthetics. This fusion led to the creation of The Oxherd Boy, an online comic that grew from her desire to explain complex philosophical concepts to her young son. Regina discusses the evolution of The Oxherd Boy into published books, and the challenges of adapting her deeply personal work for diverse audiences while staying true to the core message.In this episode Regina offers invaluable advice for aspiring creatives: find joy in the process, but also embrace the discipline of practice and the humility to learn, while illustrating how unexpected paths can lead to profound artistic expression.Key TakeawaysEmbrace structured learning to build foundational skills, even in creative fields, as it deepens your understanding and respect for the art form.A challenging or critical mentor can be instrumental in pushing you beyond your comfort zone to discover your unique artistic voice.Blending diverse cultural backgrounds and perspectives can lead to a richer, more distinctive creative style.Consistent creative practice is essential for growth, even when inspiration wanes; it keeps your skills sharp and fuels further development.Be open to the evolution of your work when collaborating with others, understanding that adaptation can broaden your reach and create new stepping stones for your message.Buy arts and crafts techniques books, plus books by some of my podcast guests, from the Creativity Found bookshop  Help me to keep making this podcast at buymeacoffee.com/creativityfoundSupport the showWant to be a guest on Creativity Found?

The protection and restoration of cultural heritage is essential, especially in conflict and post-conflict zones. Armed conflicts frequently result in the destruction or collateral damage of cultural landmarks, artifacts, and traditions. In post-conflict recovery, preserving cultural heritage is not only a matter of historical conservation but helps heal society and national rebuilding. This complex process demands interdisciplinary collaboration, sensitive policy frameworks, and sustainable strategies to safeguard heritage under threat and to foster resilience in communities emerging from crisis. Cultural Heritage Protection and Restoration in Conflict and Post-Conflict Zones explores the need for cultural heritage protection.

Across the South, the word witch has been used to explain what people fear and cannot control. For generations, healers, midwives, conjurers and root workers carried knowledge their communities needed, yet often faced suspicion when tragedy struck. In this episode of Southern Mysteries, we explore the real lives and southern legends behind those branded as witches. From colonial courts to mountain cabins and coastal swamps, these stories reveal how the line between healing and haunting has always been thin and how fear can turn ordinary people into figures of folklore.

We feel very fortunate, and our son is developing well; we are also settling into the new routine.  We matched with our Son's birth mother through a local agency, and unfortunately, she decided that she did not want to meet us. She gave no information about the biological father.  We know she was caucasian, but honestly, it is unclear whether our son is entirely caucasian or not. The pediatrician said it was a mystery, and he may be caucasian with a darker complexion, or biracial, some amount of Hispanic, black, or any other heritage. We want to do everything in our power to be informed, acknowledge, and celebrate any ethnic background that is presented, but short of doing a DNA ancestry service on a baby that is a few weeks old, I don't really know where to begin- I'd appreciate any guidance you have. Resources:Raising a Transracial or Multicultural ChildAdoptee VoicesEthical Issues in Genetic Testing in AdoptionGenetic Testing and Genealogy for AdopteesGenetic Testing for Adoptees – Is It Worth It?Support the showPlease leave us a rating or review.
