Mieke BalL'invention de l'Europe par les langues et les cultures (chaire annuelle 2022-2023)Collège de FranceAnnée 2022-2023Colloque - La solitude dans la foule : Finding the Other: Thoughts on Recognition and the Stranger WithinIn an age of hyperconnectivity, walls appear to be everywhere. Politically, we encounter them in the shape of laws, official documents, or border crossings that regulate the movements of strangers. But we lean on them for psychological reasons too: walls keep us safe on the inside, allowing us, for example, to expel unwanted parts of ourselves onto others who then become the objects of our collective scorn. In this lecture, I focus on three characters whose lives are dominated by walls: the migrant, the Covid-19 survivor, and the conspiracy theorist. Traversing the terrains of shame, melancholia, and paranoia, I diagnose a shared experience of outsider-ness, permeated by an alienated loneliness. I explore, also, the paradoxical utility of walls and how they allow us to think, to metabolize our own strangeness, and—hopefully—to find the Other.Wahbie Long, Ph.D. is Professor in the Department of Psychology and Deputy Dean in the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Cape Town.

When children aren’t given information, they fill in the blanks - something we've all experienced growing up. When children are lied to - they grow up thinking that lying is acceptable behavior. When children are misdiagnosed - it does irreparable damage to their psyche. When adults saddle children with unnecessary labels that often have nothing to do with what ails that child - they have limited that child's ability to be their true-self. Emotionally well-balanced adults are the product of years of nurturing, caring and informing your children. In fact, the biggest gift you can contribute to society today - is the gift of a well-balanced and emotionally developed child. It all has to start with knowledge - and today knowledge is what you'll find as DrBev talks to an industry professional and leader in Dr. Nekeshia Hammond. “Your kid is not bad, fruit goes bad, vegetables go bad, but the kid is not bad,” says DrBev. Talking with children about emotional feelings requires learning an entirely new set of parenting/educator/caregiver skills. It may push your limits at a time that is already challenging - but it is essential if you are to have that breakthrough moment with your child. Dr. Nekeshia Hammond is a licensed psychologist and founder of Hammond Psychology & Associates, P.A., a private practice serving children, teens, families, and adults. Her current focus is completing psychological evaluations (Gifted, learning disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety, etc.). She is also a frequent professional contributor for major media outlets and news channels. Featured in numerous media channels, her most prestigious accolades are being one of the top psychologists in the country to receive the Early Career Achievement Award from the American Psychological Association. "Let us remember: One book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world."

She is a strong advocate for raising emotionally healthy children and this book will be a wonderful resource addressing several topics related to emotional health.

Episode 56: Today's podcast is on Suicide and Black American Males. Why suicide and Black Americans? Well, there is a belief among most Americans, and particularly among African American adults, that Black Americans do not kill themselves (Joe, 2006). When we think of violent death among Black Americans we think of homicide. Suicide is thought of as a “White” problem. While it is true that suicide was not a leading cause of death for African Americans 40 years ago, today it is the third leading cause of deaths among African Americans 15 – 24 years of age. So why Black American Males specifically? Well, among all racial and ethnic groups, the suicide rate is lowest among Black American females. Given that Black American males, particularly youth, are over-represented in social services, social workers need to be aware of the risk for suicide, and prepared to provide potentially life-saving services. One thing that makes social workers professionals is that we are trained to see things that others do not. Most of us have not been trained to see suicide as an important issue in the Black American community. It is my hope that after hearing today's guest, Dr. Sean Joe from the University of Michigan, you will be more likely to see suicide among Black American males as an important clinical and programmatic issue. Dr. Joe holds a joint position as associate professor in the School of Social Work and the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan's School of Medicine. He is also a faculty associate with the Program for Research on Black Americans at the Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan. Dr. Joe is a nationally recognized authority on suicidal behavior among African Americans. He is the 2009 recipient of the Edwin Shneidman Award from the American Association of Suicidology for outstanding contributions in research to the field of suicide studies and the 2008 recipient of the Early Career Achievement Award from the Society for Social Work and Research. He serves on the board of the Suicide Prevention Action Network (SPAN USA), the scientific advisory board of the National Organization of People of Color Against Suicide, and the editorial board of Advancing Suicide Prevention, a policy magazine. He is co-chair of the Emerging Scholars Interdisciplinary Network (ESIN) Research Study Group on African American Suicide, a national interdisciplinary group of researchers committed to advancing research in this area. He has published extensively in the areas of suicide, violence, and firearm-related violence. In today's podcast, Sean talks why it is important to look at the suicide rate among Black American males, specifically adolescent males. He talks about how recent research has started to put together a profile for Black American Males most at risk for suicide, and the factors that seem to protect against suicide. He talks about some of the social and historical factors associated with the increase in suicide rates among Black Americans. Sean gives an example of how he talks with Black Americans about suicide and stigma. We talked about recommendations for social workers who are working with Black American males who might be suicidal, including talking about faith, valuing that child, having a vision of that child as an adult, and healthy masculinity. Sean discussed some resources for social workers interested in learning more about this topic. We ended the interview with Sean extending an invitation to social work clinicians and researchers to join him to better understand suicide and suicidal behaviors in Black Americans. One quick word about today's podcast: I recorded today's podcast using a Zoom H2 recorder on location at the Society for Social Work Research annual conference. If you listen closely you can hear the sounds of San Francisco in the background: a clock chiming, busses loading and unloading passengers, and even some pigeons congregating outside of the interview room. They don't detract from the interview, but I wanted to give fair warning in case you were listening to this podcast anywhere were those sounds might be cause for alarm.

The microbiome of pigs has been an area of study that has gained popularity over the last several decades. Intestinal health and gut inflammation are problems that we sometimes see in the industry. In today's talk with Clayton Chastain, Dr. Sung Woo Kim shares his research over the last several years highlighting his work with intestinal health biomarkers and how these biomarkers might help identify problems with a pig's intestinal health so that we may be able to find a solution. Since graduating with a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois in 1999, Dr. Sung Woo Kim has developed a world-class and productive research program in monogastric nutrition. The results of his outstanding research have significantly advanced our knowledge about intestinal health and amino acid nutrition, and functional nutrients in monogastric animals. Dr. Kim is currently a Professor of Nutrition at North Carolina State University. Together with his graduate students, visiting scholars, and collaborators, he has published over 212 peer-reviewed papers, 24 book chapters, 73 papers in conference proceedings, 17 popular articles, 16 presented in mass media, 264 abstracts, and given 230 invited talks in 23 countries. In recognition of his seminal contributions to swine nutrition, Dr. Kim has received AFIA Award in Nonruminant Nutrition Research, Early Career Achievement Award, and Outstanding Young Scientist Award from the American Society of Animal Science; The Vernon Young International Award for Amino Acid Research from the American Society of Nutrition; and Outstanding Research Award from the Association of Asian-Australasian Animal Production.
