But there are other important people, like William Miller Barbour from Middletown, Pennsylvania, who don’t get as much attention even though they did a lot for the movement. Recently, researchers at Elizabethtown College have been working to bring more attention to Barbour and everything he did.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We look at the complex conflicted feelings of our lives that introduce paradox in a queer approach to analysis that draws upon magical realism.

May 16th, marks Mental Health Action Day, a significant initiative aimed at shifting the focus of mental health culture from mere awareness to concrete action. This day serves as a vital reminder of the ongoing mental health crisis and the need for proactive steps to address it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than one in five adults live with a form of mental illness. Alarmingly, over 20% of youth aged 13 to 18 have experienced a serious, debilitating mental illness at some point in their lives. These statistics underscore the urgent need for effective mental health interventions and resources. In recognition of Mental Health Action Day, The Spark invited two distinguished mental health specialists to provide deeper insights into the multifaceted issue of mental health, Dr. Matthew Hurford, President and CEO of UPMC's Community Care Behavioral Health, and Professor Jihan Owens-Tyler, a psychotherapist and counselor at Elizabethtown College. Professor Owens-Tyler brings a wealth of expertise, having been trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, prolonged exposure CBT, structural family therapy, emotion-focused family therapy, trauma-informed care, and psychoanalytic therapies. And while the national statistics on mental illness are sobering, there is encouraging news for Pennsylvanians. According to Mental Health America, Pennsylvania ranks eighth in overall access to mental health resources and stands out as the top state in the nation for youth-specific access to mental health services and the lower prevalence of youth mental illness. This ranking highlights the state's commitment to providing robust mental health support, particularly for its younger population. Mental illness manifests in various forms, including anxiety, nervousness, worry, stress, loneliness, frustration, mood swings, and panic attacks. The diverse range of symptoms necessitates a comprehensive approach to treatment and support, emphasizing the importance of specialized care and accessible resources. And as Mental Health Action Day progresses, the focus remains on encouraging individuals to take actionable steps towards improving their mental health and advocating for better mental health policies and resources. By moving beyond awareness and towards action, society can make significant strides in addressing the mental health challenges faced by millions.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This interview with Dr. Mica Estrada explores her work in researching belonging, social identity, and kindness. Beginning with an exploration of impostor phenomena, we first explore stories about Donna Hicks's direct experience at being affirmed and welcomed. Returning to Estrada's research, we examine the impact of Dr. Kellman and the development of a social integration model of self-efficacy, identity, and values. This model has been used to explore the experiences of minoritized students in STEM fields and community responses to climate change. The episode closes with examinations of belonging and stereotype threat and the power of kindness and accompaniment as dignity-affirming practices.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

Eighty million tons of food is wasted in the United States each year. Over $444 billion in food is thrown away. Thirty-eight percent of all food in America is wasted. Twenty-two million pounds of food is wasted on college campuses. Elizabethtown College in Lancaster County is the first in the country to use new technology that could possibly lead to less food being wasted. It's called KITRO and Etown's General Manager of Food Services Austin Benner explained how it works on The Spark Thursday,"KITRO's operation is based on real time data capture and collection. The technology involves a scale and a camera integrated into (where the waste is discarded). The scale and camera combination records the weight and visual data of discarded food items. This information is then processed by AI and categorized into what kind of waste it is allowing for a comprehensive understanding of what and how much food is being wasted." Benner said the data is sent to KITRO's company in Switzerland for analysis. KITRO went into service at Elizabethtown in October. Benner was asked if they've noticed any trends,"We've seen a couple of trends that have been interesting to say the least, as far as our busy service times, possibly students not having enough time to eat. We've seen trends in students that may be unsure of what we're offering on our main dish of the meal period for lunch. So they will get backups that are staples at our all you can eat facility, like hamburgers and wraps. And they may try a new menu item that we've put out. And if they like that new menu item, we see those staples ending up in our waist can." Benner indicated KITRO should be able to provide data on the foods students are choose,"We're hoping with the more data collection that we receive and the more time that we're implementing these devices, we're able to determine exactly what menu items are popular with students, what menu items are not popular. And based off that information in the future, we will be able to adjust our menus and create menus based on that data." Benner said right now the food item that is being thrown away most often is french fries.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Does your child ever seem disconnected to their body? Maybe they would completely forget to eat if you didn't remind them because they never experience hunger, or they can play outdoors for hours in freezing weather but because they're not really noticing how cold it is, they leave the hat, gloves, and coat at home. Or on the flip side, maybe your child is intensely connected? Maybe they experience such strong internal or external body sensations that it is hard for them to pay attention to anything else or it spikes their anxiety or triggers them into fight or flight mode? These are just a few examples of extremes and variances in interoception awareness, which is essentially the language of our bodies. And for most neurodivergent kids, interoception is a factor in their ability to hear or feel, pay attention, and ultimately respond to the messages their bodies are sending them at any given time. I wanted to explore this concept of interoception and differently wired kids more deeply for the show, so I reached out to Kelly Mahler, an occupational therapist who specializes in interoception and is a co-principal investigator in several research projects pertaining to topics such as interoception, self-regulation, trauma, and autism. Kelly answered my big questions about interoception, including how it relates to sensory processing differences or SPD, why it's essential that we help our children get to know their bodies' unique language, and the relationship between ADHD, autism, and interoception. We also talked about what happens in our kids' brains when they increase their interoceptive awareness, and effective strategies for helping our kids develop in this area.   About Kelly Mahler Kelly Mahler OTD, OTR/L, earned a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from Misericordia University, Dallas, PA. She has been an occupational therapist for 20 years, serving school-aged children and adults. Kelly is winner of multiple awards, including the 2020 American Occupational Therapy Association Emerging and Innovative Practice Award & a Mom's Choice Gold Medal. She is an adjunct faculty member at Elizabethtown College, Elizabethtown, PA as well as at Misericordia University, Dallas, PA. Kelly is a co-principal investigator in several research projects pertaining to topics such as interoception, self-regulation, trauma & autism.   Things you'll learn from this episode: What interoception is and how it relates to sensory processing differences What the spectrum of interoception awareness is and how extremes may manifest The relationship between ADHD, autism, and interoception challenges How to support a child with poor interoception awareness to become more tuned in to their body's internal experience What happens in our brains when we start to increase our interoception awareness How to help older kids who've been on the receiving end of compliance-based strategies to reconnect with and trust their bodies   Resources mentioned: Kelly Mahler's website Kelly on Instagram Interoception: The 8th Sensory System (Facebook group)   Learn more about your ad choices.

Part two of the conversation with Dr. Nina Kraus examines how we find our sense of belonging within our sonic worlds. Speaking of how sound connects us, we enter dialogues about modulations of harmony, synchrony, the power of singing, and how musical training may make us more emotionally sensitive to harmonic cues within human voice. Turning to bilingualism, we examine gains of bilingual abilities, including the grouping of auditory objects, attention, and inhibitory control. The podcast concludes with an examination of the violence of noise, wartime sound and trauma, and the cumulative health effects upon communities.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

In this two-part series with Dr. Nina Kraus we examine the neuroscience of our hearing brains, exploring how we make meaning from our sonic worlds. In episode 1, we look at the afferent and efferent journeys as our brains construct meaning from sonic experience. Examining reading, we understand how reading is powered by the strength of our recognition of frequency, harmonics, FM sweeps, and other ingredients. In Episode 2, we explore the impact of musical training and bilingual experience on comprehension, synchrony, abilities to hear sounds in noise, our belonging, and our empathetic capacities to respond to affect. The two-episode series concludes with an examination of the violence of noise and sound and resulting impacts on our health and wellbeing.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

On February 14, 2018, a gunman opened fire inside Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida – killing 17 and injuring another 17. It was one of the deadliest school shootings in American history. Tragically, there have been other deadly mass shootings at schools and places in the U.S. since. David Hogg was a senior at the school at the time. When he heard the gunshots in another school building, he and other students hid and he started interviewing his classmates about guns and the National Rifle Association, while the incident was going on. What students at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas did after the shooting was different than previous mass shootings. They fought back – not with violence, but with their voices and activism to try to stop gun violence. Hogg and other students created March for Our Lives to try to eliminate gun violence. It started as a small group of students reaching out to Florida legislators but grew. On The Spark Wednesday, Hogg described how big the movement got,"We started talking about, okay, what can we do now? And the thing that we thought of was doing a march. So we decided to have a march on Washington, and we thought that we'd only get about a dozen people there, or maybe 90 people there. And we ended up having over 800,000 people there. And we had the largest youth protest in modern American history with tens of thousands of young people registered to vote and tens of millions of them turning out and voting at the highest rate ever for a non-presidential midterm in 2018." Hogg was asked what that turnout said to him,"The fact of the matter is that the vast majority of Americans support stronger gun laws. The NRA doesn't want you to believe that. They want you to believe that they represent all gun owners. They don't. And the reason why I know that is because my father is a gun owner. I was part of the shooting club in college. I know the power and responsibility that comes with these weapons. And I know the vast majority of gun owners do not agree with the NRA. They do not think that people who threaten to shoot up a high school should be able to continue owning an AR-15 like the shooter in my high school did. And Americans are incredibly fed up and they're showing up." Hogg said there are ways to reduce gun violence,"One of the solutions that I advocate for that many states have adopted since Parkland is called a red flag law. It's a law that enables police to temporarily remove some of these firearms if they're believed to be a danger to themselves or others, for example, in Parkland or anywhere else. If this law is in place and there's somebody who's threatening to shoot up their local high school or elementary school or kill themselves, they can have their guns temporarily taken away by the police and be given a court date with a right to due process and counsel to prove that they're not going to go and harm themselves or somebody else." Hogg also supports stronger background checks and more robust mental health screenings, although he added that mental health is not the main reason for gun violence. David Hogg speaks at Elizabethtown College's Leffler Chapel and Performance Center Thursday night at 7 as part of the college's Lecture Series.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Exploring the research of Batja Mesquita and other cultural psychologists and social psychologists, this episode examines how emotions are enacted between humans. Challenging the US-centric worldview that emotions are only within an individual, Mesquita notes that emotions are continuously enacted within culture and relationships. Our podcast contrasts differences in Japanese orientations with amae, omoiyuri, and haji or shame. Drawing upon research on happiness, we examine how happiness has changed over time and how happiness differs across cultures. Within Latin American cultures, notions of simpatía and familísmo construct happiness as relational and go-with-the flow agreeableness. The episode concludes with an examination of the relevance of emotions to conflict transformation and the importance of approaching emotional disconnects with a spirit of empathy, perspective taking, and curiosity.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

Interoception plays a pivotal role in how all people perceive and engage with their bodies and the world around them. For neurodivergent people, the differences we experience in interoception can have a bigger effect than we might expect. How well do we truly understand interoception? And how does it influence those who process it differently? From the very sensation of 'feeling our feelings' to the day-to-day experiences and potential supports for those with variations in their interoceptive system, we dig into the subject with Dr. Kelly Mahler, she's an occupational therapist and professor at Elizabethtown University. You can still sign up for our free Crash Course on Creating Neurodiversity-Affirming Schools! It's going on this week, and all of the events in the course will be live and interactive. You can talk to Emily and our expert guests, and share and compare ideas with your colleagues from around the world. You also have access to videos of each event, so you haven't missed anything. Kelly Mahler is an occupational therapist who has served both school-aged children and adults for the last 20 years. She earned a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from Misericordia University in Dallas, PA, and has won multiple awards, including the 2020 American Occupational Therapy Association Emerging and Innovative Practice Award & a Mom's Choice Gold Medal.

This episode explores the work of Taína Asili, her album Resiliencia, and the many voices that inspired her work in this album. As we understand notions of belonging, we explore Puerto Rican heritage, alternative voices of punk culture, language of re-membering, and the work of dismantling frameworks of scarcity to find deeper forms of belonging to the land and each other. Exploring the work of Sophia Smart, Leah Penniman, Sonia Renae Taylor, and others, we look at the role of the arts and an expansive sense of self in reclaiming our "own divine enoughness" (Renae Taylor).  Taína Asili is a Puerto Rican activist/musician who weaves a fusion of musical styles and roles the explore liberation themes from her work in racial, gender, and climate justice movements. Her newest album, Resiliencia and the accompanying documentary series is a profound exploration of the stories of women of color from the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico about their stories of resilience. The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

What does it mean to belong? This question and other fascinating questions on belonging will be explored in season four of the music and peacebuilding podcast. Our topics will include musical reclamations, musical identities, the neuroscience of sound and belonging, the psychology of our emotional lives, belonging and refugee choirs, peacebuilding, and the reparative work of world music drumming. In studying belonging we might sing a sense of home within ourselves, our relationships, and our sense of rootedness in place. And in a world of uncertainty, loneliness, and disconnection, our work of peacebuilding might be artistic affirmations and expressions of generous relations.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.

Anne Beiler began twisting pretzels in 1987 to support her husband's vision of offering free counseling services in their community.  What started as a single farmer's market stand grew into Auntie Anne's®, the world's largest hand-rolled soft pretzel franchise.    Anne's journey towards success began many years before she rolled the first pretzel when she and her husband experienced any parent's worst nightmare – losing a child.  This propelled Anne into years of darkness, depression, and despair but out of her pain came purpose and the desire to persevere towards personal and professional success.    Anne is among an elite group of women who have founded national companies in America and is among an even smaller group that has owned an international franchise company. She was named one of America's 500 Women Entrepreneurs by Working Women and Entrepreneur of the Year by Inc. Magazine. Many television shows have featured Anne's Entrepreneurial insights and personal story, including Secret Millionaire, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, ANDERSON, and Food Court Wars. Her story is highlighted in numerous publications, including Fortune Magazine, Inc Magazine, Guidepost, and Nation's Restaurant News. Anne also received honorary doctorates from Eastern College and Elizabethtown College.    Anne sold Auntie Anne's® in 2005 and authored Twist of Faith, a revealing look inside her life and business.  She followed up that book with, The Secret Lies Within, which provides an inside-out look at trauma and how to overcome it through sharing your story. Today, Anne speaks to audiences worldwide, inspiring people with her authentic stories and life experiences. Her mission is to help women overcome the pain, blame, and shame of their past by sharing their stories so they can lead with purpose.
