Engender is a verb that means to cause or give rise to a feeling, situation or condition.  Our word of the day comes from the Old English word ‘beget' (buh GET) which means to give birth to. Engender may be used to describe anyone giving birth to a particular feeling or emotion, for example: Whenever I hear that song, it engenders feelings of great joy. That thunderous crescendo at the end always reminds me of a happy time in childhood. It's rare that a song is able to give rise to that much emotion.

Patriarchy has never been a secret; it's in our faces from birth to death. Maybe that's why we don't talk about it. Most men hear the word Patriarchy and associate it with women's liberation or feminism and summarily dismiss it as irrelevant to their own experiences. On the other hand, women either believe that Patriarchy is a natural consequence of biological differences between women and men or that Patriarchy is a social injustice that must be rectified. What do you envision when you hear the word Patriarchy? Join us, let's talk about it.

Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber—ready to fight for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—giving you better analysis and insight that anyone else—shining a spotlight on the cockroaches of the swamp—and delivering truth and justice just when hope was starting to fade—   Here are the 3 Big Things you need to know to start today—   Number One— With China's military growing—it's posture getting more aggressive and its aspirations becoming more clear by the day—what is Joe Biden's policy—it seems to be as clear as mud—   Number Two— FBI Director Christopher Wray appears to have buried another monstrous Biden scandal prior to the 2020 election—and it looks like he may pay a high price for his tricks—   Number Three—I have been on vacation for just over a week and had plenty of time to reflect on the state of things in America today—though I actually tried to disconnect for most of my time away—as Ivey will tell you it is very difficult for me—I have been this way since long before the hand held self-hypnotizing smart phone in my hand—I became enamored with current events while I was in elementary school—   Growing up—my dad had us in front of Walter Cronkite every single night—during dinner—or right afterwards—   I remember watching the reports from Vietnam and the spreading Watergate scandal—and every night the update on those killed or missing in southeast Asia—I have been paying attention ever since—   Now of course it's much easier with the spread of devices and social media—however the quality of the information seems to have declined dramatically since that time of my childhood—   So while I was away—I watched as Republicans celebrated their false win on a debt ceiling deal—that far more Democrats than Republicans voted for—that will add another $4 Trillion to the already staggering—and potentially fatal $31.5 Trillion in debt we are already carrying—plus—on January 2nd 2025—the debt ceiling will be raised again automatically—   Where is the win in that?   I see the border is still open and thousands are pouring in every day—as so-called charities enrich themselves at the expense of the taxpayers, your kids and grandkids and the future of this country—   I also read a fascinating and vetted account of a retired judge who wrote a letter a few years ago—trying to figure out what the hell we are doing as a nation—   The letter has even been authenticated by the far-leftist Snopes—who actually called the judge—who said yes he had written it—   So, in case you have not been enlightened by the now deceased judge—I want to share it with you— This letter was published in a California paper in December of 2021—   Opinion From a Former Judge   I am a student of law whose age is 85. MY first year of college was 68 years ago. One class I took was political science. A half page of my textbook essentially outlined a few steps to overturn a Democracy.   Here is the list he gave—   1) Divide the nation philosophically.  2) Foment racial strife.  3) Cause distrust of police authority.  4) Swarm the nation's borders indiscriminately and unconstitutionally.  5) Engender the military strength to weaken it.  6) Overburden citizens with more unfair taxation.  7) Encourage civil rioting and discourage accountability for all crime.  8) Control all balloting.  9) Control all media."   He concluded his letter to the editor this way:   What was printed in 1954 as a possible diabolic nightmare has become an emerging reality. I hope that Americans will unite enough to pen a good finish- God willing.   Keith M. Alber   As I read the headlines far from the shores of America—and compared it to the list judge Alber penned less than 2 years ago—you have to ask—why are millions of people oblivious to what is so obvious to any honest person?   The judge did miss just a couple of things that have also been turned into weapons—but he didn't miss much—   First, he failed to mention, censoring and silencing anyone who didn't adhere to some orthodox position on a political spectrum—he didn't forsee the social network enabled by the rise of the machines—buy then again—how could he—   Judge Alber also failed to identify the dangers of weaponizing the FBI and DOJ to target and destroy the political opponents of those in charge of the West Wing—of course that has happened in America for decades—BUT not to the degree that was first unleashed with Barack Obama in the White House—that was then used to diminish and handicap his successor and now—is trying to prop up a guy who can barely walk on any given day—   I mean Joe Biden should never have kept saying—‘Watch me'—because Joe we have been—and honestly Pal—it has not been pretty—   Any honest person knows Joe Biden is not in charge of anything inside the beltway—and those that are—are absolutely ruthless—I am sure at some point I too will be silenced… one way or the other—maybe I will face the final solution at the hands of the American government—a couple of years ago that would have seemed far-fetched—BUT it draws closer by the day—   The Uni-party celebrates raising our national debt by Trillions of dollars while funding a proxy war in Europe and kneeling at the feet of the Chinese Communist Party—   Sure, there are some exceptions like Rand Paul, Jim Jordan, Matt Rosendale and of course Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis—BUT again when more Democrats than Republicans in both houses vote for—what did they call it—the fiscal responsibility something or other—and Republicans are patting themselves on the back for a huge win—then there is something very very wrong with all of it—   These people are not looking out for the folks—and honestly— You have to ask—who exactly are they looking out for? It seems to me they are not looking out for you or for me. And honestly with the scandals in Washington—more specifically the Democrat scandals in Washington being buried by the media and the intelligence communities at every turn—do we still stand a chance?   The good news is yes—because of courageous whistleblowers and a media that appears to have gotten permission to write non-flattering stories about joe Biden—his incompetence and the incompetence of his Administration—

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 14, 2023 is: engender • in-JEN-der • verb Engender is a formal word that means “to produce; to cause to exist or to develop.” It is used especially when feelings and ideas are generated. // The annual company picnic featured activities, such as a scavenger hunt, meant to engender a sense of teamwork and camaraderie among employees. See the entry > Examples: “Student silence and compliance are often more comfortable and comforting for those who are invested in and benefit from the status quo, but it is truly anti-learning. ... Listening to students does not mean ‘giving in to students' or treating students as customers. It's a step toward fostering engagement and engendering responsibility. If we say we are listening, students are more likely to speak. We just have to be ready to absorb some things we might not want to hear.” — John Warner, Inside Higher Ed, 17 Oct. 2022 Did you know? A good paragraph about engender will engender understanding in the reader. Like its synonym generate, engender comes from the Latin verb generare, meaning “to generate” or “to beget,” and when the word was first used in the 14th century, engender meant “propagate” or “procreate.” That literal meaning having to do with creating offspring (which generate shared when it was adopted in the early 16th century) was soon joined by the “to cause to exist or develop; to produce” meaning most familiar to us today. Generare didn't just engender generate and engender; regenerate, degenerate, and generation have the same Latin root. As you might suspect, the list of engender relatives does not end there. Generare comes from the Latin noun genus, meaning “origin” or “kind.” From this source we took our own word genus, plus gender, general, and generic, among other words.

"Often we found that a term branded 'white feminism' has been used to talk about the fact that a lot of feminist activity, both historically and currently, focuses on and attracts more white women to it. And isn't talking about the multiple discriminations, the intersecting inequalities, that women of colour experience with the overlap of racism and sexism. And how that finds itself, illustrates itself, in policymaking, in service design, in the boardroom or within media and journalism. And these are things that are critical to feminism and critical to creating an inclusive feminism that works for those who need it the most, those furthest away from access to opportunity, power, wealth. That is the kind of feminism that we're interested in" In the fourth episode of the Pass the Mic takeover of On the Engender, host Talat Yaqoob is joined by Toni Haastrup and Zoe Daniel to discuss how intersectional feminism must work with, and for, women of colour, and the need for real systemic and institutional change in Scotland and beyond.  Find out more about the Pass the Mic project here.

Nicky Manlove and Bradford Dumont facilitate a roundtable with guests from the Engender series: Abdullah Hall, Erik Peregrine, Jace Kaholokula Saplan, Lindsey Deaton, Logan Bradford, Mari Esabel Valverde, and Michael Bussewitz-Quarm. 

On this episode of Engender, Nicky and Brad interview composer Mari Esabel Valverde and speak about the honesty of gender diversity, the humanizing power of representation, and expansive notions of choral excellence. We loved this conversation. Mari Esabel Valverde is an award-winning composer and singer in steady demand across the United States and Canada. Based in North Texas, she sings in multiple professional ensembles and teaches singing and transgender voice training with TruVoice Lessons. She holds degrees from St. Olaf College, the European American Musical Alliance in Paris, France, and San Francisco Conservatory of Music.

On this episode, Nicky and Brad have a conversation with Abdullah Hall from the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles about the intersections of race and gender, as well as their experiences with singing and advocacy.  The Trans Chorus of Los Angeles is one of the first all Trans-Identified Chorus in America, consisting of Transgender, Non-Binary, Intersex, Gender-Non-Conforming and Gender-Fluid individuals.

This week's episode of Engender features Michael Bussewitz-Quarm, who speaks with Nicky and Brad about her experiences as a composer and advocate for the transgender community. Michael is passionate about effecting change through choral music on topics ranging from the health of the world's coral reefs and the epidemic of gun violence in the United States to the global refugee crisis.For more information about Michael, please visit her website: https://www.mbqstudio.com/

This week's episode of Engender features singer Logan Bradford who speaks with Nicky and Brad about their experiences navigating choral spaces as a trans person. Logan speaks honestly and incisively about their search for a musical and creative home in choral communities designed for cis-gender singers, the notion of birthing a not-yet-imagined reality into existence, and the painful act of walking away from people and communities that continue to harm trans singers.  Logan is a Tucson-based musician and alum of THEM Youth Ensemble.  

This conversation considers the choir as a space of plurality where one might discover and experience an authentic sense of self and personhood in artistic, academic, personal, and professional settings. Listen in as Jace, Nicky, and Brad explore the constellation of issues surrounding decolonization and gender, including queerness, community, and choral practice. 

On this episode of Engender, Nicky and Brad are joined by Erik Peregrine to talk about a choral world where trans singers, conductors, and administrators can thrive. Erik (they/them or he/him) enjoys an active career as a conductor and educator, currently serving as music director for the University of Arizona's Collegium Musicum and as the artistic director of Ensemble Companio, an award-winning Northeastern chamber choir. ​​Peregrine has previously held a wide variety of conducting and teaching positions across North America, including with the Tucson Masterworks Chorale, Woodbury Chorus & Orchestra, One Voice Mixed Chorus (MN), Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists, Vancouver Peace Choir, and the University of British Columbia Choirs, among others. For more information about Erik, please visit: http://www.erikperegrine.com/
