Podcasts about evergreen college

On todays show we have a hum dinger. Sarah Breaks down the event of Evergreen State college in Olympia Washington. The discussion centers on the controversial events at the College, particularly the 2017 Day of Absence incident. The college, known for its liberal arts focus, faced significant unrest after a 2015 shooting involving police and two black suspects. This led to increased activism, with students demanding changes in curriculum and campus policies. Key figures include Bret Weinstein, who opposed the Day of Absence, and Naima Love, a media professor involved in student protests. The conversation highlights the college's shift towards student-led activism, the administration's response, and the broader implications for higher education and societal issues. This one is a log one but so Worth it!

Hey there, Tony Taylor here!

Mike Nayna is an Australian filmmaker. His 2016 short, Digilante, caught viral cancel culture and race politics at a defining moment that challenged his assumptions as well as the narrative chosen by the media. Another event at Evergreen College — wherein then-professors Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying were subjected to a student-led witch hunt after objecting to a day without white people at the school — led him to James Lindsay, Peter Boghossian, and Helen Pluckrose. Mike's most-recent project is a series of films called The Reformers, which follows the “grievance studies” hoax. The Same Drugs is a fully independent, listener-supported podcast.

One of the most exciting guests to ever grace Andrew Says, former Bachelorette in Paradise star Leo Dottavio takes a break from stand-up comedy to join the show. Dottavio, who is a staple on the Danny Mullen channel, also spent time as a Hollywood stunt man before his foray into the reality show world. As the lead in one of Universal Studio's most highly regarded attractions (Waterworld), the former Division 1 college athlete has transitioned smoothly into podcasting, comedy and the world of YouTube. The California native joins Andrew Says to discuss all of his former careers, including being a 'controversial' reality show participants, a world where Dottavio says he truly didn't belong. “I wouldn't call it fake...but there's definitely acting going on and they aren't telling people there is,” he explained. The comedian described some of his most hilarious encounters, including at the infamous — and notoriously left-wing — Evergreen College as well as attending a WNBA game and trying to get a date with one of the players... during the game. “A WNBA game is actually a great place to host a bachelor party, I invite everyone watching to have their bachelor party at a WNBA game and you won't be disappointed,” Dottavio told Andrew Chapados. Exclusively on RebelNews+, Leo Dottavio gives his words on the political climate in the United States and explains why his channel was deleted from YouTube.

*Lauren Brady is no longer associated from Pacific Shellfish Growers Association* Lauren Brady graced the podcast on a list minute idea i had from just posting on social media.  It turned out to be a special episode from a very knowledgable person.  I hope you enjoy.

“Neil and Joni,  if your side wins—and Spotify bends the knee to your demands—it will mark peak woke and the beginning of your end.  In defeat, Joe will just go elsewhere and everyone with a genuinely liberal bone in their body will follow.  Most importantly, our present “Eat Me Last” public posture—from which you benefit mightily—will crumble.  Enough people will see clearly the threat you pose to open-inquiry and they will gird their loins, say “enough!” and start pushing back at scale.It's ironic that two aging hippies are waging a Tet-offensive of sorts against Joe Rogan. Walter Cronkite's change of mind on the war was the tipping point that changed the American mind and turned it against the Vietnam War.  The attack on Rogan just might mark the beginning of the end of the progressive war on free inquiry.” —A Planned ManNone of this is about the coronavirus. It's not about protecting people. It's about an entire ecosystem that has developed in our society, devoted to bringing down people who step out of line. You don't even need government censorship anymore, because Democrat super PACs and social media and the 24/7 news cycle are so much more efficient. Today's smear merchants work a lot faster than ol' Joey McCarthy ever did.Rogan will withstand it regardless. He's got more money than he could spend in 10 lifetimes, and millions of fans who will follow him anywhere. He'll be fine. No, this message is for the rest of us:You see what we're doing to this guy? You want it to happen to you next? No? Then shut your mouth.- Jim TreacherThe Tipping PointIn every mass hysteria event throughout human history, there comes a tipping point. It's the moment you can no longer take accusations seriously and the whole thing comes crashing down. In Salem, it was when the Governor's wife was accused of being a witch. During the McCarthy hearings, when members of the military were being accused, it led to this moment:And now, it's likely Joe Rogan as a target, along with the working-class uprisings of the Canadian truckers, public opinion is starting to change. This is the moment when everyone notices. When they took the initial accusation against Joe Rogan of spreading “disinformation” and pivoted to accusations of racism that gave them away and everyone saw. That the Blue Checks and the media fell for it was yet more proof of what an insular feedback loop it has become, and just how disconnected they have become from average Americans. Joe Rogan and the Body SnatchersThey look like us. They kind of act like us. But they are not here to live among us. They are here to turn us into them. They want us to think like they think. Like what they like. Believe what they believe. They have taken over Hollywood. They have swallowed up science. They have infiltrated education. They are not here to negotiate. You have only one option: comply or else. It is the Evergreen College generation that now sees its mission to remove undesirables the way they tried to remove Bret Weinstein from Evergreen for having the audacity to suggest it is against the fundamental American right of free speech to absent a group from a shared space. You are not allowed to say such things if you are a white male. It is verboten. We've now seen so many examples of this it has almost become the new normal. It is for people who are plugged into the news cycle and social media but a good majority of Americans didn't quite realize the force we put into power when we elected Joe Biden. But now they do. The Rogan episode has woken up a sleeping tiger. Some will watch this Evergreen documentary series on Youtube made by Benjamin Boyce who was a student at Evergreen at the time and documented all of it, and feel that rising sense of purpose, as so many of my friends on the Left do. This is their newfound religion as a “good ally.” They know they are either racist or antiracist. The dirty little secret is that studies have shown white liberals change their language when they talk to Black people and Conservatives don't. Do white liberals see themselves as caretakers of Black people and/or people of color? Do they see themselves as superior and therefore feel the need to always make amends? Has that sense of guilt has been carried over from the Boomer generation of the 1960s counterculture when the Civil Rights movement exploded much the same way the Woke revolution exploded in 2020? Must it now be visited upon the minds and hearts of children - they must be taught how to be racist so that they can then be antiracist to make sure the cycle continues. Is that really the plan? It didn't end well for Evergreen in terms of ongoing success, which should give you a good idea of where all of this is going. Enrollment dropped significantly. Maybe it helped move the needle in terms of marginalized students finding their voice and power, but when it spiraled into witch hunts that is when the bottom fell out. From the WSJ:It turns out that students aren't clamoring for the privilege of paying for an education in such a hostile environment. Evergreen accepts 97% of applications, but enrollment dropped to 2,854 full-time students last fall, compared to 3,810 the semester of the protests. Enrollment increased over the same period at other Washington universities.The accusations against Rogan started out as “disinformation.” But considering how many times the government and media have had to backtrack on all of their strident conclusions about COVID, disinformation, it seems, is in the eye of the beholder. As Jon Stewart illuminates here, it's a matter of changing opinion and shifting sands:Bill Maher took it even further to point out how our government is guilty of spreading “disinformation”:Because the "disinformation” campaign fell flat, they pivoted to … wait for it … racism. because, of course they did. A Twitter user named Wokal Distance was also curious about how it pivoted from “disinformation” to “racism” and landed on a well-funded superpac. But Rogan was the wrong guy. They picked someone who is popular but mostly, popular with the blue-collar, center left. Democrats have alienated Hispanic voters, Asian voters and now, Black voters. They've alienated parents and suburban moms. They only seem able to alienate people, not attract them. Their plan appears to be: accusations of racism and fear of Trump because Trump is a racist and that will get us votes. They don't want voters. They want the right kind of voters for their utopia.It goes without saying that this isn't about excusing language that is that offensive. It is, however, about context and intent. This is not a sustainable way forward for the country. We have to practice tolerance, kindness, and forgiveness. That no longer defines the Left. The best piece on Joe Rogan is by Kat Rosenfeld writing for the New Statesman:Here is the heart of the campaign to push Rogan off Spotify. It's not about stopping misinformation, and it's not about reducing his influence; indeed, Spotify could renege and cancel Rogan tomorrow, costing themselves $100 million without costing him a single listener. What people really want is the symbolic satisfaction of kicking him out of the clubhouse. They had a nice place here, with good music and classy people, and here's Joe Rogan, wearing the wrong clothes, rubbing shoulders with the wrong folks, flouting the etiquette of this rarefied space and generally stinking up the joint.It's less about politics than about class, less about disagreement than disgust, and less about what Rogan actually says than how popular he is for saying it. It's realising that people love him, no matter how much we beg them not to. In the giant fertile chasm between liberal and conservative media, in a vacuum of trust in authority, Joe Rogan has taken root: irreverent, curious, immune to in-group pressure and utterly uncontrollable.  Will the real cult please stand up?Democrats are comfortable calling Trump's MAGA movement a cult. They have certainty about this but they do not have any proof beyond their own narratives around January 6th. While it's true his supporters turned up in DC to fight for his refusal to accept the results of the election, they also didn't blindly follow his lead when it came to taking the vaccine he takes credit for. True that the MAGA Republicans demand that (what they call the) RINOS adopt the America First platform or face punishment, that isn't that different from the Bernie Left demanding the same of the Centrists. Cults are different, though. They silence dissent, demand ideological compliance and most importantly, cultivate utopias away from the rest of the population. It's much easier to make the case that the Left has become a cult-like.It isn't hard to find evidence of this anywhere on the internet because it's everywhere. They remind me of the “born again” Christians in the 1970s high on their newfound salvation. This bombshell piece over at the Wall Street Journal by Paul Rossi and Andrew Guttman, “Inside the Woke Indoctrination Machine” illustrates just how baked into the school system the religious ferver is on the Left and how many schools now are training teachers to basically be like Evergreen. They write:In “Feeding Yourself When You Are Fed Up: Connecting Resilience and DEI Work,” we learned techniques, such as “calling out,” that faculty and students can use to shut down conversations immediately by interrupting speakers and letting them know that their words and actions are unacceptable and won't be tolerated. Several workshops focused on the practice of “restorative justice,” used to re-educate students who fall afoul of speech codes. The final step to ensure belonging is to push out families or faculty who question DEI work. “Sometimes you gotta say, maybe this is not the right school for you. . . . I've said that a lot this year,” said Victor Shin, an assistant head of school and co-chairman of the People of Color Conference, in “From Pawns to Controlling the Board: Seeing BIPOC Students as Power Players in Student Programming.”They didn't ask parents if they agreed with any of it. They are forcing this belief system onto all institutions of power in this country, including science and education. If I fought against religion in classrooms for most of my life, I am still going to fight against religion in classrooms, even if people on the Left believe it is the better way forward. They don't get to decide that on their own. And they don't get to throw fits if people disagree. This should be something we all debate out in the open. The first thing all cults do is separate the children from the parents. Charles Manson did this. Scientology does this. Jim Jones' utopian cult did this. They do it to free up the women for reproduction and to indoctrinate the children. It would not be such a big deal if it wasn't so extreme all of a sudden, and if it hadn't spread to our government. They are essentially giving parents and reasonable Democrats no choice but to abandon the party because it has so clearly become cult-like in its demands for compliance. Asra Q. Nomani's chilling piece “Why Antiracism Should Be Resisted” lays it out pretty well. Here is just part of it:Bigotry, meanwhile, is back on the curriculum, thanks partly to a “Black Lives Matter at School” campaign, which last week recommended the book Not My Idea: A Book about Whiteness to children as young as six in Evanston/Skokie School District 65, outside Chicago. “Whiteness is a bad deal”, the book argues; it amounts to signing a “contract” with the devil, who is illustrated with an indelicate pointy tail. Meanwhile, in an English lesson in Fairfax County, Virginia, students played a game of “Privilege Bingo”; even “Military Kid” has been shamed as having “privilege”. And:The beauty of Martin Luther King Jr's America was that everyone's humanity, worth and potential was appreciated, not undermined. Fighting racism used to mean rejecting the notion of a hierarchy of human value. But today the morally twisted teachings of “anti-racism” preach that a new hierarchy of human value, with whiteness at the bottom, is acceptable — and even evolved and “progressive”. Education activists seem intent on pushing the race-shaming, bigotry and segregation of “anti-racism”.The bigger problem, other than destroying the minds and hearts of children is, as with all cults, they raise people who can't survive outside the cult. Once they remake their utopia to suit their ideology, suddenly everything will look like oppression to them. If they travel to Europe, for instance, or any country that doesn't follow the strident doctrine of the Left how will they survive that? They'll be like the Amish family in Peter Weir's Witness, with no clue how the modern world works. People on the Left now believe this country should accommodate them. But as they become increasingly sensitive and fragile that becomes impossible. So what can we do if so many people are afraid to speak out? Well, people will start gravitating to those voices that aren't afraid. The first thing Tucker Carlson did upon hearing Rogan was being targeted as a thought criminal was to air the very clips by the very people that got Rogan almost fired. For him, it was a show of power, and an example of someone who isn't afraid even a little bit of what they thinks. There is a reason his ratings are skyrocketing right now. Carlson, like Ben Shapiro, is also drawing more eyeballs from the younger generation on the left, probably the men mostly, who have been told they are useless. Why wouldn't they watch Carlson? Why wouldn't they be drawn to people who bravely stand up to the rising hysteria? Biden certainly won't. The Never Trumpers won't. Blue Check Twitter won't.Dreaming the BiosphereA healthy society has a balance of liberalism (magical thinking) and conservatism (pragmatic thinking). When one side has too much power it can lead to collapse, whereby the other side takes control. Because humans by nature want to be free to express themselves, to dissent and to make their own choices, any utopia has two options -to loosen their grip or to tighten it. The next step when threatened, as the Left is now, is authoritarianism. From the book Dreaming of the Biosphere, a letter by a disgruntled ex-hippie from the 1970s written to Modern Utopia magazine:It is a benefit of magical thinking to strike forth and build utopias. This is very much an American thing, an American Revolution thing, a Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin thing. It has led to wonderful achievements, just at look at everything the Boomers inspired in the 1970s in movies, art, music and investigative journalism. But unfortunately, right now, we are watching the collapse of all of it. This is not necessarily a bad thing. The time has come for the Boomers to step aside and allow for new leadership to redefine where the magical thinking Left will take this country next. That can't happen unless it does collapse, and collapse it will. We are at the tipping point now, the Fourth Turning. It's all coming apart. A great example of this playing out was Biosphere 2 in the early 90s. It was a collaboration of a billionaire Boomer and a cadre of magical thinkers who ran The Theater of Infinite Possibilities before they inhabited a carefully constructed second atmosphere for two years. They had high hopes of a scientific breakthrough that would allow humans to build these biospheres on other planets. Their problem was that they prioritized purity and ideology over science. Hundreds of millions of dollars were wasted, they almost suffocated to death without oxygen, they almost starved, they formed tribal alliances and turned on each other. Eventually, none other than Stephen K. Bannon was brought in to clean out the ideology and introduce practical business management. Yes, the same Steve Bannon who would lead the Tea Party populist uprising that would put Donald Trump in power was once the reasonable fixer that kept Biosphere 2 from failure. It was conservative pragmatism brought in when the magical thinking liberalism could not sustain itself. Biosphere 2 is now a research facility that tourists visit every year. Some of them know about the crazy people that helped found it. But most don't. In fact, that book, Dreaming of the Biosphere, is really the only documented research of everything that went down. It's easy to tell it was written before 2016, when everything changed, because it offers such an objective, critical view of the Left. If it was written today you bet they would have cast Bannon as the villain. And that is why I know we have not built our leadership on the Left for the long haul. We have sacrificed truth for idealized propaganda. We have sacrificed objectivity for the preferred narrative. Now, as more and more Americans plot their escape, no one in the Democratic Party seems even half-aware of what is actually going on. Had they loosened their grip a little bit in Biosphere 2, looked at the bigger picture of what they might achieve, they might not have been ejected from the project, which was completely overtaken by new management and turned into a research center. It is an interesting thing to visit but it is not what it was built to be. Even still, some good did come out of it because there was a healthy mix of liberalism and conservatism at play. Now with Joe Rogan still facing daily attacks from Democrats online, which has to be among the most stupidest things a political party has ever done, the trucker convey is yet another example of just how out of touch the ruling class elites that run our government and Canada's are. Matt Taibbi writes:What's happening in Canada and other countries seems less about specific demands than about the general principle of being listened to. Leaders like Trudeau could likely make this thing go away if they'd make even a slight gesture toward the idea that legitimate differences of opinion exist on questions like mandates, vaccine passports, surveillance tracking, lockdowns, the vaccination of children, and other matters. You don't have to agree with people, just find a way to look at them without betraying your profound regret they were ever born. The longer this convoy phenomenon goes on, the clearer it becomes that none of the leaders involved knows how to do this. They're not choosing to govern without listening. They just don't know any other way.We're watching the collapse of the Left in real-time. This country will need fixers by the end of it, just like Biosphere 2 did. But when all is said and done, some good will come out of it. Get full access to Free Thinking Through the Fourth Turning with Sasha Stone at sashastone.substack.com/subscribe

Benjamin Boyce is the host of the Boyce of Reason podcast. He is most known for being a vocal critic of the Evergreen protests, having witnessed it firsthand as a student. His in-depth documentary and series of videos expose the chaotic behaviors that took place during the week-long incident in 2017. The event has been a result of the Evergreen College’s over emphasis on inclusivity and equality. In its attempt to promote progressive values, it has inadvertently fostered a cult-like mindset that demands conformity at all costs. In this episode, I talk to Benjamin about his experience during the Evergreen protests, the future of higher education, and the dangers of wokeism and cancel culture. Links and ResourcesBoyce of Reason PodcastBenjamin’s YouTubeBenjamin’s TwitterSupport the show (http://patreon.com/candicehorbacz)

In this episode, Benjamin and I talk about what happened at Evergreen and some of the cultural implications of these events. We then talk about the so-called “evergreening of America.” In many ways, what went down at Evergreen in May 2017 has become a proleptic microcosm of what’s going on today in 2020. Benjamin Boyce is a popular YouTuber and podcaster. He was a senior in college at Evergreen University when the campus experienced an interesting upheaval that had to do with racial tensions. Or, at least, certain ideologies about racism. He’s extensively documented the whole incident on his YouTube channel hereConnect with PrestonTwitter | @PrestonSprinkleInstagram | @preston.sprinkleYoutube | Preston SprinkleCheck out his website prestonsprinkle.comIf you enjoy the podcast, be sure to leave a review.

Location: Zoom Date: Friday 3rd July Company/Project: DarkHorse Podcast Role: Host In 2017, Bret Weinstein was thrust into the public limelight, when he objected to a change in the college's tradition of observing a "Day of Absence". Bret stating that "there is a huge difference between a group or coalition deciding to voluntarily absent themselves from a shared space in order to highlight their vital and under-appreciated roles, and a group or coalition encouraging another group to go away." It led to widespread protests and claims that Bret was "a racist" and the college was forced to close for two days. Following the Evergreen College protests, Bret outlined the threat of behaviour like this spilling over into the outside world. His concerns were proven correct after the death of George Floyd. In the days following Floyd's death, people took to the streets across the US and then across the world. What originated as a Black Lives Matter movement, quickly became infiltrated by far-left groups. In this interview, I talk to Bret Weinstein, a biologist and evolutionary theorist, who was at the center of the Evergreen College controversy. We discuss the US protests, bipartisan politics, inequality, and where Bitcoin fits into this and #Unity2020.

“If you're not politically confused at the moment, you're not paying attention.”— Bret Weinstein- - - - -Since the 1970's Evergreen State College in Washington has held a Day of Absence. On this day, Evergreen students and staff from minorities choose not to attend the college to highlight their contribution.In 2017, the college proposed new plans for the day. Instead of minority students and faculty voluntarily choosing not to attend campus, the change would flip the event with white students and faculty asked to stay at home.Bret Weinstein, a biology professor at the college, protested these changes, writing to the college: "there is a huge difference between a group or coalition deciding to voluntarily absent themselves from a shared space in order to highlight their vital and under-appreciated roles, and a group or coalition encouraging another group to go away."The letter opposing these changes led to a large number of students making claims that Bret's actions were those of "a racist" and led to a group confronting him outside of his classroom. Widespread protests followed, with physical threats made against Bret and the college decided to close the campus for two days.In this interview, Bret and I discuss life at Evergreen College before the protests, how events unfolded, the repercussions for both Bret and the college and why he believes the reactions may be symptomatic of the current political climate.- - - - -Show notes and transcription:https://www.defiance.news/podcast/what-happened-at-evergreen-college-bret-weinstein- - - - -Timestamps:- 00:00:00 - Show Intro- 00:02:16 - Welcoming Bret to the show- 00:07:16 - What happened at Evergreen- 00:16:52 - The pursuit of equity- 00:23:44 - Allies or enemies- 00:27:58 - Racial issues before the protests- 00:36:57 - How could this happen?- 00:40:23 - Has political correctness gone too far?- 00:45:31 - A free market for education- 00:49:39 - What did the protesters want?- 00:51:19 - Peer pressure and mob mentality- 00:55:07 - What has the outcome been?- 01:03:10 - The left, right and The Democratic National Committee- 01:09:20 - The next presidential election- 01:12:55 - Trump, Brexit and global warming- - - - -The success of Defiance will be largely down to the support of you, the listener.

Ever wonder what a real-life Revenge of the Nerds might look like? Well, it's here. And it's nothing like the bawdy 80's sex comedy. Turns out it's more like Night of the Living (Brain) Dead and it's taking over America. Imagine if anyone who ever took a Marxist Manspreading & Toxic Phallocentrism course suddenly got to RUN THE WORLD. As if hating your parents' money wasn't bad enough... A generation of minor thinkers has unleashed a major mind-virus that's spreading from its college containment unit into corporate and government policy. If you think I'm being a drama queen, you need to hear my conversation with James Lindsay, author of How to Have Impossible Conversations: A Very Practical Guide. James is an academic and one of the greatest hoaxers of our time. He and two friends were busted by the Wall Street Journal after successfully hoaxing 14 of the most respected, peer-reviewed journals in wackademia, exposing their intellectual bankruptcy. These are people who are shaping young minds and public policy.

Do you or a loved one have epilepsy? Have you ever been so burnt out that you suffered a stress-related illness? If so, you know what a wake-up call those experiences can be. Our guest today shares a very powerful story about her epilepsy and how it was the catalyst to make massive shifts in her life. In this episode of the IHML Show, we’re speaking with Sarah Kaler, an executive leadership coach, consultant, CEO, and co-founder of Soul Powered, a women's leadership research and education company. Sarah started her first business at age 20 and then spent 10 years in a senior director role at Lululemon, helping it grow to a multi-billion dollar company. Although she experienced outward success, her incredible rise in the corporate world caused her to have stress-related grand mal seizures. It wasn’t until she gave birth to her son and then experienced six seizures in one week that she got the wakeup call she needed. During this episode, Sarah shares how boundaries help us become indestructible leaders, impact the world and live the life we were meant for.

Professor Bret Weinstein is the man at the center of the Evergreen College crisis. At this moment of national angst about racial equity, free speech and campus protests, Bret’s story has exploded everywhere from the New York Times to Fox News—the tale of the unassuming Biology Professor who stood up to radical left-wing students and found himself in the eye of the storm. But... who is this guy? What does he really believe? Josh and Bret sit down, not to discuss what happened—you can hear that elsewhere—but to discuss how his ideas led him here: Ideas about equality, learning, justice, and Ritalin.

Due to popular demand, I've decided to embark on a fact-finding mission regarding the Brett Weinstein/Evergreen College fiasco. It took an incredible amount of digging to find anything beyond the same few talking points that have exploded across conservative media in the past few weeks, but the deeper story is a little more complicated and worthy of our attention. As usual, the easy way out is to filter the facts so they comport to a narrative we want, but I do my best to investigate the facts from a neutral standpoint. What I found might surprise you! Here are links: Tucker Carlson Interview; Email Exchange; Cooper Point Journal 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6; Weinstein View on Equity Policy; Demographics of Professors; Detainment of Black Students; President Letter on Trigger Warnings; President Response to Demands; Letter from 50 Faculty; Professor Solidarity with Students; Prof Setting Record Straight.

Black Women's Defense League This week I spoke with Niecee X of the Dallas Texas based group Black Women's Defense League, which has been in existence for a bit over 2 years. In this interview we speak about BWDL and the circumstances around its formation, the work it engages in, and the political climate it exists within. We also speak about feminism and misogyny within this context, as well about the status of and tools for addressing anti blackness and sexism in anarchist scenes. The interview you are about to listen to has been edited down for broadcast, and we will release the longer version for on the podcast feed. On top of that, this is the second of two interviews that we recorded, and in the coming months I am planning to synthesize the two conversations into one long podcast version, which we'll announce once it is ready for listening. If you would like to get in touch with Black Women's Defense league, you can go to http://blackwomensdefenseleague.com, hit them up on Instagram or Facebook by searching their name, or email them Announcements For folks in the Pacific Northwest: The Tilted Scales Collective will be holding workshops called "Fighting Charges, Strengthening Movements."

Stephanie Coontz is an award-winning social historian, the director of Research and Public Education at the Council for Contemporary Families and teaches history and family studies at The Evergreen College in Olympia, Washington. In A Strange Stirring: The Feminine Mystique and American Women at the Dawn of the 1960s (Basic Books, 2014), Coontz reveals why so many women in the early 1960s found Betty Friedan's book The Feminine Mystique (1963) speaking to them personally. Freidan identified an unnamed problem allowing women to see the self-doubt and depression they suffered as no longer a personal issue, but a social one. Coontz's work is both a social history of women at mid-century and a reception history of Friedan's book: A book regarded as one of the most influential in the twentieth century and a catalyst for the 1960s women's movement. Coontz's narrative provides a vivid picture of the realities and the contraction in the post-war lives of many women. She also critically examines Friedan and responds to the charge that the Feminine Mystique was too white and middle class. Including the voices of minority and working class women's response to the book, Coontz provides a fresh way for understand Friedan's legacy. This is not a story only trying to make sense of the past, but shows how the feminine mystique in new guises continues to reproduce itself in contemporary society. Consumerism, the search for meaningful work, and equity between men and women both a home and at work, are enduring issues we all continue to contend with. Learn more about your ad choices.

Colleen Francis duh duh duh duhhhh!

www.magickwithoutfears.com ( http://www.magickwithoutfears.com ) *Lecture notes from my 2004 presentation during seminars with Dr. Cynthia Bourgeault at the University of British Columbia's graduate college, Department of Religious Studies and Ancient Near-Eastern Studies and the Vancouver School of Theology. This was part of a series of research lectures leading up to my final work now available as* *The Ethics of Understanding God* ( https://www.amazon.com/ETHICS-UNDERSTANDING-GOD-Politics-Mystical-ebook/dp/B074W2DJXP/ ) ** (2005). *NB:* In the fifteen years since finishing my opus, there has been a populist appropriation of many of the terms within the fields of philosophy, theology and semiotics. It should be understood that this misuse of these terms and the concomitant critique from the "Intellectual Dark Web" proponents like my fellow Canadian Jordan Peterson and others do not hold any weight when considered within these actual fields of study which are not understood or in any way accurately represented by the IDW exponents -- none of whom have more than the most cursory education in the fields of my research. While their critiques of the populist appropriations of these terms and theories certainly are valid foils to the abuse of these complex terms by the radical undergraduate movements burgeoned by laws such as Bill C-23 and the absurd treatment of Weinstein at Evergreen College, they fail to represent the actual role that such ideas and terms fulfill within the spheres of these disciplines. *In other words:* If a bunch of students are indoctrinated by liberal-Marxist professors to appropriate "postmodern" or "postructural" without any actual understanding of these technical terms and simplify their meaning, critique of this is valid. Likewise, if popular authors and lay-scholars conflate the discipline of semiotics, especially as it has finally developed under Umberto Eco out of Saussure and Peirce's work, with the aforementioned terms, that does not change the fact that the appropriated terms have nothing at all to do with the how they are actually used in their respective fields. To redefine a term, then critique that term, and think therefore that the fields these terms are drawn from are therefore grasped is simply absurd anti-intellectualism and a failure of critical thinking in its most basic use. The IDW critique is valid against those who students and professors who misuse terms in fields they have either little knowledge or abusively to promote a political and/or ideological agenda -- such argumentation goes against the very reason why scholarship exists.
