There's a Colonial Era hero who many people have never heard of – John Durkee. Ten years before the Declaration of Independence, Durkee stopped the highly unpopular British Stamp Act from taking effect in Connecticut. You won't believe how he did it, though. His actions spurred a movement that brought Jonathan Trumbull to the Governor's office, cementing CT's role as the only colony to officially back the Patriots during the Revolutionary War.

On today's Stand Up for the Truth, host Dave Wager brings on his longtime friend Dr. Tim, a physician and city council member, for a wide-ranging conversation rooted in John 8:32—“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Dave reflects on God's role in medicine, sharing how he trusted the Lord through his wife's cancer surgery, while Tim recalls moments when prayer guided him through critical procedures. The two talk through how truth requires discernment and obedience, not just knowledge. In his practice, Tim emphasizes the difference between evidence-based medicine and social narratives that distort reality, pointing to abortion, gender ideology, and the drift away from foundational truths. Together they affirm that real freedom comes from trusting God, not institutions. The conversation shifts to politics and culture as Dr. Tim highlights the growing influence of narratives in media, government, and education. He notes how truth is often sidelined for political gain and how leaders stray from foundational principles of governance. Dave and Tim explore how many problems the government tries to fix stem from the church neglecting its role in caring for the poor, elderly, and vulnerable. Dave stresses the importance of returning to simplicity—living by God's Word, valuing life, serving others, and trusting God's provision. They close by reminding listeners that belief and truth are not the same—truth always stands, and ultimate freedom is found in Christ.

In this conversation, Dr. Myles Durkee discusses his journey into psychology, focusing on the dynamics of race, culture, and identity. He shares insights from his dissertation on racial microaggressions and the concept of 'acting white,' exploring how these experiences affect young adults. He explores the concept of code switching, its implications in professional settings, and the unique challenges faced by Black professionals, particularly Black women. The discussion also touches on the impact of DEI policies on research, the intersectionality of identities, and the experiences of Black psychologists. Dr. Durkee emphasizes the need for open conversations about code switching, especially for younger generations, and highlights the potential for a future where code switching is a voluntary practice rather than a necessity.

Dans le sens commun du terme, la discipline peut référer à une forme de vertu où le maintien avec constance d'une habitude est établi. En psychologie, la discipline ou « self-discipline » en jargon scientifique, réfère à la capacité de se plier à une forme d'obligation ou de règle, face à l'exécution d'un comportement, pour atteindre un objectif sans qu'un cadre extérieur contraignant ne soit présent pour y arriver (Duckworth, 2011; Zimmerman & Kitsansas, 2014; Michaelides & Durkee, 2021). Ce contenu théorique peut devenir très précieux s'il est transféré et appliqué concrètement au domaine de la bourse. Mais une question peut émerger : est-ce que ça s'apprend la discipline? Et la réponse est : oui.https://www.daytradercanada.com/negociateur-actif/la-discipline-en-bourse/Site web: https://daytradercanada.com/Nous joindre: https://daytradercanada.com/nous-joindre/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/daytradercanadaYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DayTraderCanadaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/day-trader-canada/

We'll also scrutinize its impact on black individuals, discussing four distinct profiles emerging from our data and the mental toll it can take. The knowledge and research of Dr. Myles Durkee helped guide us through the intricacies of this deeply-rooted practice.Our discussion intersects with themes of cultural awareness and acceptance, emphasizing the power of embracing our individuality. We shed light on the consequences of code-switching in our private and professional lives, stressing the need to acknowledge the diverse shades of blackness. The personal insights of David, Juliette, and Dr. Myles aim to provide a fresh perspective and understanding of code-switching. Let's stride towards creating more inclusive environments and celebrate our differences. Join me for this enlightening exploration of code-switching and the profound impact it has on our identities.Connect With My Guests:Dr. Myles Durkee:https://lsa.umich.edu/psych/people/faculty/mdurkee.htmlDr. Juliette Nelson:https://www.juliettenurinelson.com/https://instagram.com/juliettenurinelsonhttps://www.facebook.com/juliettenurinelson/David Frazier:https://www.frazierchronicles.com/https://www.instagram.com/frazierchronicles/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG4YyFJNcraDNgO6rs16AKQhttps://twitter.com/FrazierChronicSupport the showIntro Music by: Anthony Nelson aka BUSShttps://music.apple.com/us/artist/buss/252316338Keep it Safe, Keep it healthy & Keep it Kandid!www.thekandidshop.comIG, FB & Tiktok: @thekandidshoppodcast

Stalking Shakespeare: A Memoir of Madness, Murder, and My Search for the Poet Beneath the Paint by Lee Durkee https://amzn.to/42VgEF8 A darkly humorous and spellbinding detective story that chronicles one Mississippi man's relentless search for an authentic portrait of William Shakespeare. Following his divorce, down-and-out writer and Mississippi exile Lee Durkee holed himself up in a Vermont fishing shack and fell prey to a decades-long obsession with Shakespearian portraiture. It began with a simple premise: despite the prevalence of popular portraits, no one really knows what Shakespeare looked like. That the Bard of Avon has gotten progressively handsomer in modern depictions seems only to reinforce this point. Stalking Shakespeare is Durkee's fascinating memoir about a hobby gone awry, the 400-year-old myriad portraits attached to the famous playwright, and Durkee's own unrelenting search for a lost picture of the Bard painted from real life. As Durkee becomes better at beguiling curators into testing their paintings with X-ray and infrared technologies, we get a front-row seat to the captivating mysteries—and unsolved murders—surrounding the various portraits rumored to depict Shakespeare. Whisking us backward in time through layers of paint and into the pages of obscure books on the Elizabethans, Durkee travels from Vermont to Tokyo to Mississippi to DC and ultimately to London to confront the stuffy curators forever protecting the Bard's image. For his part, Durkee is the adversary they didn't know they had—a self-described dilettante with nothing to lose, the “Dan Brown of English portraiture.” A lively, bizarre, and surprisingly moving blend of biography, art history, and madness, Stalking Shakespeare is as entertaining as it is rigorous and will forever change the way you look at one of history's greatest cultural and literary icons.

Diversity Matters with Oscar Holmes IV Season 3 Episode 6 Episode Title: The Acting White Phenomenon Guest: Dr. Myles Durkee   Diversity Matters with Oscar Holmes IV is a podcast that explores all things diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) related. In each episode, Oscar and his guests have lively discussions around DEI topics, explore the latest research on the topic, and discuss the implications so that listeners will be more knowledgeable about the topics and be able to apply the insights to their lives.   Show Summary: “When individuals don't fit that very strategic, limited profile of how we expect each racial group to behave, that can leave them vulnerable to being accused of acting white.”   Forming your identity and achieving successful academic status has become a significant factor in discrimination and stereotyping in America. We see this issue primarily in middle school up until college and even in a professional setting. To be discriminated against by other races is one thing, but to be pointed out by your community has become a phenomenon that we now call Acting White.   Dr. Myles Durkee, an Assistant Professor of Psychology at The University of Michigan, joins us in this episode. He has won numerous awards for his research, where he examines cultural invalidations perpetrated by in-group and out-group members to determine how these experiences are associated with critical psychosocial results.    We deep dive into different scenarios and people's backgrounds, where these accusations are often involved, and what circumstances we often link to this behaviour. Does Acting White only accuse people who speak a particular accent besides their race and how you dress? Does it go beyond academic accomplishments?    Dr. Durkee sheds light on the intensity of this experience and how it affects the people involved in these incidents of invalidation. Learn self-protective strategies to help mitigate adverse outcomes when dealing with the Acting White phenomenon.   3 Exceptional Highlights:   Essentially, by behaving in a way that doesn't fit with the societal stereotypes associated with a racial group, they can be vulnerable to being accused of acting white by their peers, family members, strangers, and sometimes even teachers.  If you're behaving in a way that goes against the cultural norms, or the cultural tendencies, then your peers likely have the same racial group. They will judge you now as an individual and less so as an ambassador of the racial group.  These cultural validations, and the acting white accusations, tend to emerge around elementary school for most individuals, pick up the pace at middle school, and hit a peak during high school. Show Highlights:    The importance of context in Acting White labels   5:05 Dr. Myles Durkee   Within that context, the school setting's cultural climate and racial composition have significant influence. So we think about the racial composition when you're in a school and are in the majority group, even if you are a person of colour; you're much more likely to be perceived and judged as an individual because you're in the majority group.   6:13 Dr. Myles Durkee   When these groups are in the extreme minority, the stakes are higher to represent the group in a positive light. And any of you who come from a marginalised group, it's now to protect the group's reputation from trying not to confirm some of these negative stereotypes.   The profiles of students who experience Acting White accusations   12:29 Dr. Myles Durkee   The research literature has heavily focused on black folks with this dynamic, but it happens to most groups of colour in teenagers. So when we measure data, most of our data has been with black and Latinx. Late adolescence and young adults.    13:01 Dr. Myles Durkee   In terms of the single trait in which people are most likely to be accused of acting white, it's hands down their style of speech. So above and beyond everything else, based on how you talk, it will leave you the most vulnerable to being accused of acting white.   Are females more targeted with the act of white label than male?   27:23 Dr. Myles Durkee   If women of colour defy a racial stereotype, regardless of the attribute, then they're much more likely to be accused of acting white for defying that racial stereotype.   29:03 Dr. Myles Durkee   But for men of colour, the same behaviour, speaking correctly, can now be accused based on their race, their gender, and their sexuality.  The psychology of the perpetrators   29:03 Dr. Myles Durkee   It's not necessarily how frequently they have victimized themselves by acting white in the past. But more so, how disturbing and distressful those accusations compel them to perpetrate more frequently in the future.    Important Links:   Call to Action: Subscribe to Diversity Matters and get exclusive access to all episodes of Beyond the Mill, which is my live diversity dialogues talk show that I host on campus at Rutgers University-Camden.    Episode Sponsor Links:    Producer Links:   Host Social Media Links:   Subscribe to Diversity Matters  Apple | Google | Spotify | Stitcher 

Joining Marcus this week on the Podcast for a special episode of sorts are Shaun Durkee and his daughter Lila. Shaun and Lila recently participated in a weekend mountain goat survey in southwest Montana and are here to talk about their experience. This wasn't just a survey from the truck either, rather a 5.5 mile hike into the backcountry. For an experienced backpacker like Shaun it was pretty standard, but for young Lila it was no small feat. The two talk about their weekend adventure, the importance of surveys like this and why Lila probably won't tell her friends at school about it, because she doesn't want to brag. This is a fun conversation and a glimpse into what the outdoors looks like to the next generation of conservationists. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brandon Durkee didn't care if he got F's in school. He describes himself as a “lost soul” during high school because he didn't know what he wanted to be. He flunked college, worked a series of entry-level jobs and always had issues with his bosses. Convinced he'd never be a success because he didn't have a college degree, his drinking and partying dug him into a financial hole.   Although he hated school, he LOVED learning. As contradictory as that may seem, especially given his bad grades, he learned his way up the corporate ladder. How did he turn his life around and eventually made six figures?
