Finns det en tro som förenar naturvetenskapen med religionen? Helena Granström reflekterar över religiös ateism och tron bakom varje sökande.

Essän sändes första gången 2017-06-05.”I begynnelsen skapade Gud himmel och jord.Jorden var öde och tom, djupet täcktes av mörker och en gudsvind svepte fram över vattnet. Gud sade: ”Ljus, bli till!” Och ljuset blev till. Gud såg att ljuset var gott, och han skilde ljuset från mörkret.Gud kallade ljuset dag, och mörkret kallade han natt. Det blev kväll och det blev morgon. Det var den första dagen.””Nä”, säger ateisten. ”Så var det inte alls. Faktum är att allting tog sin början i en singularitet för 13,8 miljarder år sedan; strax efter sin födelse utgjordes universum av ett extremt tätt och varmt område, som expanderade ofantligt snabbt, och därigenom gav upphov till det vi idag känner som tid och rum.”Givet att man läser dem båda bokstavligt, är det uppenbart att det finns en konflikt mellan naturvetenskapens och kristendomens skapelseberättelser. Låt vara att berättelsen om kosmos födelse i en ursmäll, en Big Bang, har klart mytologiska kvalitéer, och faktiskt ursprungligen formulerades av en fysiker som också var katolsk präst – faktum kvarstår att när det gäller sakförhållanden låter sig vetenskap och religion svårligen förenas.Universums uppkomst utgör, tillsammans med frågor om livets och människans ursprung, den kanske tydligaste konfliktytan mellan naturvetenskapen och framförallt de monoteistiska religionerna.Motsättningarna tycks också ha skärpts under senare år – delvis genom vad som kan tyckas vara ökade politiska och vetenskapliga anspråk från religiöst håll, men också genom den polemiska attityden hos inflytelserika ateister som Richard Dawkins.I ett sådant läge är en röst som Philip Claytons välgörande. I boken ”Religion och naturvetenskap”, som utkom på svenska våren 2017, presenterar han potentiella konflikter mellan vetenskap och tro, och hur de skulle kunna lösas. Inför mötet med naturvetenskapens resultat står, menar Clayton, flera vägar öppna för religionen. En är förstås att avvisa vetenskapen, och försöka övervinna den på dess egen arena; på detta är den påstått vetenskapliga teorin om så kallad intelligent design ett tydligt exempel.En motsatt väg skulle vara att ödmjukt revidera sin tro utifrån forskningsläget; att bibehålla de delar som är förenliga med nya vetenskapliga rön, och att i övrigt välja en metaforisk tolkning av de religiösa myterna. Kanske kan skapandet av världen på sju dagar förstås som en grov kronologi? Kanske sker evolutionen precis som i Darwins teorier, men osynligt vägledd av en gudomlig hand?Men möjligen är sakfrågorna överhuvudtaget inte det mest väsentliga, tycks Clayton anse: När man klär av religionens dess vetenskapliga anspråk, finner man en kärna som är mer angelägen än dessa. Denna religionens märg är på intet sätt oförenlig med den moderna vetenskapens resultat, utan utgör ett komplement, som kan tillhandahålla redskap för att tänka kring de frågor som vetenskapen lämnar obesvarade.En liknande distinktion görs i vad som kom att bli filosofen Ronald Dworkins sista bok, utgiven på svenska år 2014, med titeln ”Religion utan Gud”. Hur en religiös tradition framställer sakförhållanden eller historiska fakta saknar, menar Dworkin, relation till vilka normer och värderingar den förespråkar: Gud kan ha skapat världen på sju dagar eller inte, men detta har ingen bäring på huruvida man skall älska sin nästa såsom sig själv. Baserat på detta föreslår Dworkin en klart vidare definition av begreppet religion än den konventionella:Religion är övertygelsen om att det spelar roll hur en människa lever sitt liv, och att världen besitter skönhet och ett inneboende värde.Den konflikt Clayton hanterar är med Dworkins språkbruk, snarare än en motsättning mellan religion och vetenskap, en motsättning mellan teister och ateister; mellan dem som tror på gud, och dem som inte gör det. Särskilt akut är konflikten mellan teisterna, och de så kallade naturalister som är övertygade om vetenskapens förmåga att omfatta allt. Dworkins begreppsförståelse hjälper oss att se det fundamentala skikt av tro som ligger dolt under religionens vetenskapliga anspråk.Men ännu mer intressant är att den blottlägger ett skikt av tro också under vetenskapens vetenskapliga anspråk; vad Dworkin kallar religiös ateism. Det handlar om tron att universum i sin helhet är begripligt, och således möjligt att beskriva i termer av en slutgiltig, allomfattande teori; en tro som ofta beledsagas av övertygelsen att denna teori också kommer att, i någon bemärkelse, vara vacker.Att som Dworkin kalla de övertygelser som driver naturvetenskaplig forskning religiösa, innebär inte att likställa vetenskapen med vilken tro som helst. Snarare är det att hävda att den uppfattning om världen som gör vetenskapen begriplig i sista instans inte är möjlig att belägga med den vetenskapliga metodens hjälp: Det finns inget vetenskapligt faktum som inte kräver någon form av utomvetenskapligt antagande för att vara meningsfullt, om det så bara är antagandet att det är möjligt för människan att förstå sin omvärld.Den religiösa ateismen utgör, menar Dworkin, motivation för det sökande som just nu pågår efter en fysikalisk teori som förenar kvantmekanikens beskrivning av det allra minsta, med relativitetsteorins beskrivning av det allra största. Av denna teori förväntar sig forskarna inte enbart korrekta förutsägelser av observationer och experimentresultat, utan dessutom att den skall vara koncis och matematiskt elegant; med andra ord, vacker. Denna fysikens estetik, som för Dworkin alltså är ett exempel på religiös ateism, har länge utgjort en kompass för forskningen, och inte sällan väglett valet mellan två potentiellt riktiga teoribyggen: Det är den som får oss att vilja tro på E=mc^2, men också den som får somliga att tveka inför strängteorins komplicerade approximationer eller den skenbart godtyckliga partikelkatalogen i partikelfysikens standardmodell. Hur skönhet skall förstås i det här sammanhanget är dock inte uppenbart:Symmetri framhålls ofta som centralt, men att något är symmetriskt innebär inte med nödvändighet att det är vackert, inte heller inom matematiken.I den fysiska världen är detta uppenbart: Vi tilltalas av det ansikte som ser likadant ut i en spegel som när det betraktas direkt, men tycker knappast bättre om en öken, där utsikten är densamma i alla riktningar, än ett varierat skogslandskap.Låt oss då anta att vi en dag, i enlighet med många vetenskapsutövares förhoppningar, finner en vacker och matematiskt konsistent teori som tycks beskriva verkligheten fullständigt. Hur kan vi då vara säkra på att det är den enda möjliga? Det är få teorier som har förmågan att producera argument för sin egen giltighet.Att hantera de frågor som ligger utanför teoriernas räckvidd är en utmaning som såväl naturvetenskapen som religionen har levt med länge:Liksom kyrkofadern Augustinus en gång hävdade att Gud själv skapade tiden, och att frågan om vad som kom före Gud således är nonsens, har frågan på vad som kom före universum under lång tid besvarats med att det var först i Big Bang som den dimension vi kallar tid uppstod.Först på senare år, då teorier om så kallad evig inflation där lokala universa ständigt uppstår i olika delar av rymden, har denna förklaring kommit att ifrågasättas – vilket egentligen bara innebär en förflyttning av problematiken, för vad var det då som satte igång inflationen? Att föreställa sig ett vetenskapligt experiment som kan ge svar på den frågan är svårt – kanske lika svårt som att tänka sig ett som kan påvisa existensen av en allsmäktig gud.Helena Granström, författare med bakgrund inom fysik och matematik LitteraturPhilip Clayton: Naturvetenskap och religion.

Dworkin lost her job with the US Agency for International Development  last year when the Trump administration shut it down. Armao in her  Beyond the Brink podcast this week explores just how much  the Trump administration is to blame for the latest global health crisis.  Did  layoffs  at USAID and the CDC and a pull-out from the World Health Organization contribute to the disease getting out of control? Are Americans better protected from disease when the country has turned global cooperation on health matters into purely transactional bilateral agreements. You give us your minerals and gems; we'll give you medicine.Should the US rejoin the World Health Organization?US public health policy under Trump/Kennedy has A. put people including Americans at greater risk for infectious diseases B. put some sense into public health planning overly dependent on big Pharma C. sensibly put focus on public health of U.S. citizens D. upended a system of global cooperation on public health matters that worked.Michelle Dworkin was until 2025 a career foreign service officer with the US Agency for International Development. Over, some 23 years, she worked in Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, and Washington, DC. She possesses In-depth knowledge of government processes, congressional affairs, and project development.  She lives now near Albany again with her parents and daughter.

Lea YpiL'invention de l'Europe par les langues et les cultures (2025-2026)Collège de FranceAnnée 2025-2026Colloque : Socialisme et égalitarisme libéral : un dialogue nécessaireThe Climate Emergency, State Power, and the Expansion of Democratic ControlMartin O'NeillProfessor of Political Philosophy, University of YorkRésuméThe global climate emergency has presented a deep challenge to the capacities of states throughout the world, and this challenge has been one to which thus far most states have failed adequately to respond. At the same time, the problem of climate change has also presented a connected challenge to mainstream contemporary liberal egalitarian political philosophy, which has since its foundations in the work of Rawls and Dworkin, proceeded on an assumption of the centrality of market mechanisms in coordinating economic production. In this presentation I will explore how these two challenges are linked, and the implications of this connection for how we should think about the role of markets within plausible accounts of social justice. I will argue that illumination of these problems can come from a perhaps unexpected source, when we return to the work of George Orwell, and in particular his discussion of the relationship between state capacities in times of emergency, the need to subordinate markets to democratic purposes, and the significance of reducing forms of unequal political and financial power within democratic societies.Martin O'NeillMartin O'Neill is Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of York. He works on issues of equality, democracy and economic justice. His research connects normative political theory with practical questions about institutions, public policy, and the organisation of economic life.Martin is the co-author of The Case for Community Wealth Building (Polity Press, 2019), and the co-editor of Taxation: Philosophical Perspectives (Oxford University Press, 2018) and Property-Owning Democracy: Rawls and Beyond (Wiley-Blackwell, 2012). His work has appeared in leading journals including Philosophy & Public Affairs, Political Philosophy, and the Journal of Political Philosophy.Before coming to York, Martin was Hallsworth Research Fellow in Political Economy at the University of Manchester, and before that he was Research Fellow in Philosophy and Politics at St John's College, Cambridge. He was educated at Balliol College, Oxford (BA, BPhil) and at Harvard University (PhD).He has acted as a consultant to organisations such as the International Labour Organization, and is a member of the Trustee Board of the Democracy Collaborative, a US-based 'think-do tank' which works on models for a more democratic economy. In 2026 he was elected as a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences.-- Ce colloque se propose d'explorer un dialogue essentiel entre deux traditions majeures de la pensée politique contemporaine : le socialisme et l'égalitarisme libéral. Toutes deux visent à réduire les inégalités et à promouvoir la justice sociale, mais elles divergent sur les moyens et les principes qui doivent guider cette transformation. Alors que l'égalitarisme libéral insiste sur l'égalité des chances et la redistribution par des institutions démocratiques, le socialisme met l'accent sur la transformation des structures économiques et la remise en question des rapports de domination capitalistes. Ce symposium réunit philosophes, économistes et théoriciens politiques pour examiner comment ces deux approches peuvent se compléter et s'enrichir mutuellement. En confrontant la critique socialiste de l'accumulation capitaliste et les principes libéraux de liberté et de pluralisme, on cherche à ouvrir des pistes pour une société plus juste et démocratique, capable de répondre aux défis du XXIᵉ siècle.

In this episode, I'm talking to Matilda Carter, a lecturer in Applied Ethics at IDEA The Ethics Centre at the University of Leeds, about the ethics of dementia care, and asking what justice requires for people living with dementia. In her book, Relating to People Living with Dementia as Equals, Matilda argues that the way we think of and treat people living with dementia raises issues concerning power, stigma, and the structures of care. Drawing on a relational conception of justice, Matilda examines how domination and oppression can shape the lives of people with dementia, and why we should recognise their capacity to live authentically. We'll also discuss advance directives, secure care, and what a more just system of dementia care might look like.Some further reading and other links recommended by Matilda:Self-advocacy books:Christine Bryden, Will I Still Be Me?Kate Swaffer, What the Hell Happened to My Brain?Wendy Mitchell, Somebody I Used to KnowRichard Taylor, Alzheimer's From the Inside OutCritical Dementia Studies (an edited collection that includes some chapters by self-advocates)Organisations supporting self-advocacy work:Dementia Alliance InternationalAlzheimer's Disease InternationalSources discussed in the interview:Ronald Dworkin, Life's DominionIris Marion Young, Justice and the Politics of DifferenceAndrew Firlik, “Margo's Logo”Rebecca Dresser, “Dworkin on Dementia”Agnieszka Jaworska, “Respecting the Margins of Agency”Ethics Untangled is produced by IDEA, The Ethics Centre at the University of Leeds.Bluesky: @ethicsuntangled.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ideacetlLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/idea-ethics-centre/

We'll cover the remainder of Chaos & Amber in this episode. Oberon agrees to a betrothal so he can get a party thrown for him. They kill the sub-boss, Aber turns on Dworkin, and we finally make it to the Primal Pattern. The plot is entirely lame while also running counter to the Amber creation myth as we know it.

We'll cover the bulk of Chaos & Amber in this episode, which amounts to very little action, and a ton of waiting around. Oberon and Aber talk about things, Dworkin is still missing in the Courts of Chaos, and Oberon is saved from a succubus. The origin story of Amber is made more convoluted, and the writing generally fails dramatically to live up to franchise.

We move through to the end of chapter 9, with a lot of superficial exposition and nonsense, as Dawn of Amber tries too hard to be an Amber book, without any of the cleverness, and without anything much happening. Dworkin shows Oberon his electric chair gadget he made that can detect Pattern DNA.

Oberon gets to know his siblings in a place called Juniper, and we barely care. Finally Oberon realizes what we've known all along: that he's the son of Dworkin. I'll talk about the shallow references to Nine Princes, and the lack of any interesting mythology behind the choices being made. Not much happens in these chapters as we get mired down in more exposition and little action.

Mea Culpa welcomes back Scott Dworkin, Co-Founder and Lead Investigator of the Democratic Coalition and creator and host of The Dworkin Report. Dworkin is a proud member of #TheResistance and his original Dworkin Report helped uncover the Trump-Russia affair with the Democratic Coalition and explained it to a national audience on MSNBC well before Special Counsel Mueller's probe even began. Dworkin served as a Deputy Director for both the 2009 Presidential Inaugural Committee and 2012 Democratic National Convention. Scott was also a Senior Advisor on both the Draft Biden and Run Warren Run campaigns. Michael and Scott dig deep into the Supreme Court, January 6th and Clarence Thomas.

What Powell actually did •Powell chose to go public with a dramatic video statement saying DOJ subpoenas “threatened a criminal indictment” over his testimony on the Fed's multibillion‑dollar building renovations. •He explicitly framed the subpoenas as “pretexts” and cast them as retaliation for the Fed setting rates independently of the president, elevating a renovation/cost‑overrun inquiry into an existential attack on central bank independence. The framing of criminal indictment came from Powell! In what look liked a scripted response, all of the Fed acolytes on Wall St cried foul, they bought in hook line and sinker!!! What the U.S. Attorney is saying •The U.S. Attorney's Office for D.C. has stated they contacted the Fed “on multiple occasions” about cost overruns and Powell's congressional testimony, were ignored, and therefore resorted to formal legal process, which they stress “is not a threat.” •Jeanine Pirro has been explicit that “the word ‘indictment' has come out of Mr. Powell's mouth, no one else's,” and that “none of this would have happened if they had just responded to our outreach.” “Above the law” behaviour. •Powell now publicly insists “no one is above the law,” even as the record shows the Fed disregarded informal outreach and only engaged once grand jury subpoenas landed, which is the opposite of transparent cooperation. Recall Choke Point 2.0 and the unbanking of individuals. •By recasting a straightforward question of cost overruns and possible misstatements to Congress as an illegitimate “criminal indictment threat,” Powell is effectively demanding a special zone of immunity wrapped in the rhetoric of independence. Why central bankers are “charging the hill” •Former Fed chairs and global monetary grandees have rushed out statements condemning the probe as an attack on Fed independence, treating any prosecutorial look at a central banker as inherently out of bounds. The former Fed officials' statement is doing exactly what the “51 intel officials” letter did on the Hunter Biden laptop: using elite signatures to launder a political narrative into institutional dogma and declare scrutiny itself illegitimate. Powell and his allies are recasting a narrow DOJ inquiry into cost overruns and testimony accuracy as an existential assault on “independence,” and an all‑too‑willing media is once again treating the letter as revealed truth instead of asking hard questions This closes ranks around the idea that central banks sit on a higher plane than normal agencies, immune not only from political pressure on rates, which is legitimate, but also from standard legal and fiscal oversight, which is not. MSM and the death of the 4th estate •Much of legacy media has adopted Powell's framing almost verbatim: “unprecedented attack on independence,” “monetary policy under assault,” while relegating the core factual dispute,ignored outreach, cost overruns, accuracy of testimony, to secondary status. Powell and the central banking crowd are behaving in a way that is frankly odd: they stonewall basic oversight, scream “independence” the moment anyone reaches for legal tools, and act as though they stand above the law—while a compliant MSM gladly carries their narrative, proof the fourth estate has checked out. All of this does not meet the smell test. Is the Fed above the US Constitution? Why did Powell go public and choose the framing that he did? Why did MSM and so called objective pundits not do any objective analysis. Smells like elements of a Russia Russia Russia hoax strategy to me. https://twitter.com/MetaLawMan/status/2010816276508082343?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2010816276508082343%7Ctwgr%5E6585e9ff019ea8191354a3bf06c918cdfd10f00c%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fjoehoft.com%2Fcorrupt-fed-head-jerome-powell-added-trillions-in-unnecessary-us-debt%2F   service of a subpoena on the Fed is not a threat to indict him. Subpoenas are investigative tools. It's possible that the government separately advised Powell that he was a “target” of the investigation, but he didn't say that. 3.

Trump administration designates 3 Muslim Brotherhood branches as terrorist organizations   The Trump administration labeled three Muslim Brotherhood branches as terrorist organizations on Tuesday, imposing sanctions on them and their members. The Lebanese, Jordanian and Egyptian chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood pose a risk to the United States and American interests, according to the Treasury and State departments. “These designations reflect the opening actions of an ongoing, sustained effort to thwart Muslim Brotherhood chapters' violence and destabilization wherever it occurs,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement obtained by The Associated Press. “The United States will use all available tools to deprive these Muslim Brotherhood chapters of the resources to engage in or support terrorism.” The Jordanian and Egyptian branches were designated by the Treasury as specifically designated global terrorists for providing support to Hamas. The Lebanese branch was labeled a foreign terrorist organization, which is the most severe, meaning it is a criminal offense to provide material support to the group.

Each faction represents and individual spline on the umbrella construct, but the Muslim Brotherhood overall is a political extremist system for various levels of authentic Islam.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Says There Are “DISTURBING TAPES” of Minnesota AG Keith Ellison Taking Money to Stop Investigations Into Somali Fraud   the U.S. Treasury Secretary confirmed that federal authorities are aggressively “following the money” amid explosive fraud investigations tied to Minnesota's sprawling Somali-linked financial networks. According to Bessent, the Treasury Department has launched multiple enforcement actions focused on suspicious financial flows between Minnesota residents and businesses and overseas destinations, including East Africa, as the federal government intensifies its immigration and fraud crackdown in the state. But the real bombshell dropped during an interview with Blaze: Scott Bessent:“It's hard to follow the money. There are evidently some disturbing tapes of AG Ellison in meetings with people who donated to him—calling for political favors to stop the investigations. We'll see. I don't want to get out ahead of the investigation. It's going to be very methodical. But I can guarantee you—when the bear trap snaps, we're going to get these folks. We're going to follow the money, whether it's here in Minneapolis and St. Paul or over in East Africa.

FEAR NOT, GREAT PEOPLE OF MINNESOTA, THE DAY OF RECKONING & RETRIBUTION IS COMING! Minnesota’s total population as of July 1, 2024, is estimated at 5,793,151.  Approximately 8% of the state’s population is foreign-born, meaning about 463,452 individuals, while 92% (around 5,329,699) are native-born (U.S.-born). Minnesota is home to the largest Somali-American population in the United States, with people of Somali descent making up a notable ethnic group.  Recent estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) for 2024 put the number of individuals of Somali descent in Minnesota at around 107,000 to 108,000, representing about 1.85% of the state’s total population.  (Note: Some sources provide slightly varying figures, such as 76,000 as a lower estimate, but the ACS data consistently points to the higher range. )Breakdown Within the Somali Population in MinnesotaThe Somali community in Minnesota includes both U.S.-born individuals and foreign-born immigrants or refugees.

It’s the flagship journal of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), the same organization featured prominently in that widely circulated “Uniparty NGO” network diagrams below. NED is a U.S. government-funded outfit. It includes currently sitting members of Congress on its board… from both parties, not just former officials. Soros's involvement is deep. He has co-chaired NED conferences abroad and his Open Society NGOs regularly partner with NED operations, especially in countries undergoing “transitions” (read: regime change or soft power penetration). Together, Soros and US-backed NGOs have shaped funding pipelines, media narratives, and even foreign electoral strategies. So when people ask, “Why isn't Soros banned?” … they need to understand: he’s not an outsider. He’s part of our government. The Uniparty protects and partners with him, because he helps carry out a shared foreign policy vision… the same one that labels President Trump as a threat to democracy. NED members include:    Victoria Nuland – Director of the National Endowment for Democracy; Acting United States Deputy Secretary of State under Biden (served in both parties).   Karen Bass – Vice Chair of the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Representative and current Mayor of Los Angeles (Democrat).    Todd Young – Honorary at the National Endowment for Democracy; U.S. Senator from Indiana (Republican).    Elise Stefanik – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; U.S. Representative from New York and House GOP Conference Chair (Republican).   Mel Martinez – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Senator from Florida (Republican).   Steve Biegun – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Deputy Secretary of State (Republican).    Todd Young – Honorary at the National Endowment for Democracy; US Senator from Indiana (Republican). https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2011165232815882294?s=20 Just In: Bill and Hillary Clinton Refuse To Testify in Front of House Oversight Committee, Daring Chairman Comer To Hold Them in Contempt of Congress After months of dispute against House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, Bill and Hillary Clinton have today (13) REFUSED to testify in the House's Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

The New York Times reported: Source: thegatewaypundit.com President Trump's Plan Lefty DOJ Lawyers Rage-Quit After Harmeet Dhillon Blocks ICE Witch Hunt A group of lawyers in the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) have reportedly resigned after Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon declined to investigate the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer involved in last week’s shooting in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The group had apparently pushed Dhillon to let a DOJ delegation fly to Minneapolis to investigate the January 7 shooting death of far-left agitator Renee Nicole Good, who was shot after she used her two-ton Honda Pilot as a weapon against the officer. Despite pressure from the lefty lawyers – described as “career prosecutors” – to initiate a witch hunt against the officer, Dhillon put a kibosh on their plans. They were apparently informed of the decision not to move forward with an investigation of the ICE agent last Friday.  After being told “no,” a group of “top leaders” in the criminal section of the Civil Rights Division “have left their jobs to register their frustration with the department.” Shock, horror. Sounds like the DOJ is well rid of this cabal, and these departures could be part of a trend of mass resignations amongst the old guard. This, of course, also saves Dhillon the trouble of having to draw up their pink slips.  Source: redstate.com  https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2010791586980933826?s=20   later.

The state released new health data Wednesday about students across Minnesota. The 2025 Minnesota Student Survey shows that students are generally reporting better mental and physical health than they did when they took the survey last, back in 2022. But they were asked about a new topic this time around: social media and screens. That was where students reported a bigger struggle. University of Minnesota professor Jodi Dworkin studies how technology shapes child development and she helps parents navigate children's use of social media and screens. Dworkin joined MPR News host Nina Moini on Minnesota Now.

First up, hear aurora greet the listener before handing the mic to Mary O'Neill who delivers WLRN's world news featuring stories from Louisiana, Russia and Iran. After the world news, stay tuned for the song "Mother Rage" by Kathy Fire, an anarchist feminist songwriter who released this gem in 1978. Next, hear the interview Thistle did with Lierre Keith about the significance of the re-release of Andrea Dworkin's Right Wing Women by Picador in February of 2025. Lierre Keith (www.lierrekeith.com) is a writer, small farmer, and radical feminist activist. She is the author of six books including, The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability, which has been called “the most important ecological book of this generation.” She is also coauthor, with Derrick Jensen and Aric McBay, of Deep Green Resistance: Strategy to Save the Planet. She's been arrested six times for acts of political resistance. Finally, stay tuned 'til the very end for commentary from WLRN member aurora linnea in which she aptly compares Trump to Ronald Reagan and ties it all together for us regarding the force of right wing politics in the United States. She also, however, rightly points out, as did Ms. Dworkin, the misogyny and cruelty toward women on the left, and how women don't have a viable option for dignity and respect in general in American life.

O STF, no HC. n. 232.627, trouxe uma tese que pretende acabar com decisões contraditórias do Tribunal sobre o foro por prerrogativa de função (também chamado de "foro privilegiado"). Pela decisão o STF é competente quando o acusado, que tem foro privilegiado por força da Constituição, comete o crime: durante + e em razão do mandato e essa competência permanece mesmo que o acusado já não detenha mais o foro privilegiado. Isso terá grande repercussão sobre julgamentos polêmicos que o STF fará em breve.

Parmi les figures marquantes du féminisme des années 70, Andréa Dworkin est sans conteste l'une des plus radicales et l'une des plus controversées aux Etats-Unis, y compris au sein des mouvements féministes eux-mêmes.

From the sexualized Kamala t-shirts to the way women are treated in areas such as caregiving, menstruation, and menopause, misogyny is pervasive in our society.   Misogyny is defined as the hatred, contempt, or prejudice against women or girls, which keeps them at a lower social status than men, perpetuating the social roles of patriarchy. Misogyny can manifest in obvious and subtle ways, affecting women in various aspects of their lives.   Feminist scholars like Andrea Dworkin and Kate Manne have shed light on the insidious nature of misogyny in our culture.  Dworkin argues that society regards women as contemptible and subjects them to violence and discrimination, while Manne describes misogyny as a shock collar that enforces women's subordination in a patriarchal society.   The demographics most affected by misogyny is also alarming,  with BIPOC women experiencing its effects in conjunction with racism. From medical research to athletics and law enforcement, examples of misogyny in plain sight illustrate the lack of value placed on women in our society.   Finally, there's the importance of fighting misogyny in the workplace, advocating for oneself, and celebrating International Women's Day. There are so many amazing women and influential figures like Drew Afualo, who uses her platform to combat misogyny and empower women.    Join us as we unravel the complex web of misogyny, sexism, and patriarchy, and explore ways to challenge these harmful ideologies in our daily lives.

This Monday at 1pm on KPFA Radio's Women's Magazine I talk to veteran biographer and gay rights activist Martin Duberman who assesses the life and thought of the combative radical feminist in his 2020 biography “Andrea Dworkin: The Feminist Revolutionary.” Andrea Dworkin (1946-2005) was among the most controversial figures in the second-wave feminist movement, caricatured by her critics as a man-hating lesbian who believed all heterosexual sex was rape. Duberman, who knew her personally, paints a much more nuanced picture, pointing out that Dworkin lived for 40 years in a nonexclusive, occasionally sexual relationship with a devoted male partner and that she was ahead of her time in seeing gender as a social construct that denied the fluidity of human sexual behavior. His account of Dworkin's childhood and youth depicts a precocious rebel with a deep commitment to social justice and a theatrical, confrontational personality that brooked no compromise or evasions. When she was subjected to a brutal and humiliating vaginal exam after being arrested at a sit-in protesting the Vietnam War, 18-year-old Dworkin wrote to every newspaper in New York City describing her ordeal and the conditions at the Women's House of Detention. It was the beginning of her lifelong battle to make the world face the fact that women were routinely mistreated and abused, culminating in her famous crusade against pornography. Duberman persuasively argues that Dworkin's position was misunderstood as a call for censorship when in fact what she advocated was the right of women who had been harmed by pornography to sue its purveyors—and their obligation to prove their case in court. Her response to free-speech absolutists gives a good sense of both her belligerence and her searching intelligence: “People have no idea how middle-classed and privileged their liberal First Amendment stuff is—how power and money determine who can speak in this society.” These words resonate even more strongly today, and Duberman notes that after years of opprobrium, there is now “a modicum of acknowledgment of Andrea's insistent bravery, her mesmerizing public voice, her generosity of spirit.” The post Women's Magazine July 10, 2023 appeared first on KPFA.
