Subscribe now for the full episode! Derek and Danny are joined by historian Alex Thurston to talk about the rise and decline of area studies in the United States. They discuss how regional expertise was once central to the management of American power; why policymakers increasingly ignored that knowledge when it existed; how programs like Fulbright, Title VI, and the Wilson Center fit into a postwar arrangement between the state and the academy; DOGE; the retreat of private foundations; the turn toward technocracy and quantitative approaches; and what the collapse of area studies says about the end of Progressive Era faith in expertise. Read Alex's piece for Foreign Exchanges, “The Decline and Fall of Area Studies.” Statement from SSRC on ending its International Dissertation Research Fellowship program.

Betty Boyd Caroli's biography of Mary Kingsbury Simkhovitch is the first full-length work on a seminal figure in the settlement house movement, which spearheaded efforts to improve the life of immigrants and to counter urban squalor in cities around America in the early 19th century. Greenwich House, the community center Simkhovitch founded in 1902 in Greenwich Village, then a destination point for new immigrants to New York, quickly gained a reputation equal to that of Jane Addams's Hull House in Chicago, providing services in health, recreation, education, and the arts (which Greenwich House continues to do to this day). Simkhovitch became a tireless advocate of public housing and has been called by some "the mother of public housing." She played a central role in designing and administering the first public housing projects in America during the New Deal, in which she was an integral figure. The National Housing Conference, which she founded in 1931, continues to operate in our current "housing crisis" as among the most prominent advocates for safe, affordable housing. She co-wrote the National House Act of 1937, the first piece of legislation to establish the federal government's responsibility to help provide low-income families with housing. A Slumless America: Mary K. Simkhovitch and the Dream of Affordable Housing (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Caroli, best-known for her work on presidential First Ladies, which has gone through multiple editions, will become the standard account of a truly remarkable life. Born in New England and educated in Boston and at the University of Berlin, Simkhovitch married a Russian intellectual seven years her junior who spoke no English and had no job prospects. Raising a family while working for her rapidly expanding set of causes, Simkhovitch was portrayed in a DC Comics series (also featuring Diana Prince) in the early 1940s as a "Wonder Woman of History" for her seeming ability to do it all: take on the full spectrum of urban ills while also raising and supporting her family. Her husband eventually joined the Columbia faculty and became a noted art collector, advising collectors such as J. P. Morgan, while she exposed the squalor of Downtown slums. The stress of trying to do it all took a heavy toll on Simkhovitch, but her lifelong, passionate advocacy of and contributions to housing reform continued unabated and remains both inspiring and relevant. Betty Boyd Caroli is a graduate of Oberlin College and holds an MA in Mass Communication from Annenberg School of University of Pennsylvania, as well as a Ph.D. in American Civilization from New York University. She studied at the Università Per Stranieri in Perugia, Italy, and the Salzburg Seminar in Austria. A Fulbright in Italy led her to teach at the British College in Palermo, the English School in Rome, and two branches of City University of New York (Queens College and Kingsborough Community College).

Send us a textGrants don't fund ideas—they fund clear stories that solve real problems. We sit down with Dr. Natasha Goldman, an art historian turned grant strategist, to map out a practical path from fuzzy concepts to fundable proposals. Natasha shares a simple five-part framework—what, why, how, who, and how much—that helps teams decode dense RFPs, align their plans, and write with confidence under pressure.The funding terrain has shifted. Foundations are swamped and more selective, which makes warm outreach and relationship building essential. On the federal side, opportunities are alive and evolving, with more space for industry participation alongside nonprofits and higher ed. Programs tied to AI, workforce, and economic development are gaining traction, while long-standing programs at NSF and NEH continue with updated priorities. Natasha shows how to focus on fit, guard your integrity, and only chase opportunities that match your mission and values.Partnerships take center stage. Rather than competing head-to-head, local players can combine efforts, add wraparound services like child care and transportation, and present a stronger, scalable model. We break down how to set roles by team strengths, avoid timeline compression, and use low-stakes practice to master iteration before tackling high-stakes grants. Natasha's $23M Good Jobs Challenge win for Boston illustrates what this looks like at scale—multi-sector coalitions, measurable outcomes, and childcare placements that exceeded targets.If you're ready to craft proposals that read clean, demonstrate broader impact, and stand up to tough review, this conversation offers the steps. Subscribe for more candid strategy, share with a colleague who's chasing funding this year, and leave a review with your biggest grant challenge—we'll tackle it in a future episode.Guest BioNatasha Goldman, PhD, is President of WISSEN, Inc. and Visiting Researcher at Boston University.

In this special episode, created by one of our student podcast fellows, NYU student Rachel Fang interviews Dr. Matthew Pellegrino, a composer, music educator, and professor at the NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. Korean culture is everywhere, and with the recent success of Netflix's K-Pop Demon Hunters, K-pop's importance in particular has taken on new heights. Rachel speaks with Dr. Pellegrino about his musical upbringing, how his Korean identity has shaped the way he hears and thinks about music, and how this all influences his teaching as an NYU professor.Dr. Matthew Jihoon Pellegrino is an award-winning composer, Fulbright researcher, and music educator. He has enjoyed an eclectic musical upbringing; one which combines Western classical, traditional Korean music, and a brief stint in a metal band.

My father, Hans-Georg Graf von Rittberg, was born on March 27, 1943, on his family's estate in Pomerania during World War II. In early 1945, his mother, Karin Gräfin von Rittberg, eight months pregnant, fled with her two sons ahead of the Russian occupation. Her husband was executed in April 1945 for his involvement in the resistance against Hitler.By the fall of 1945, they were finally able to reach Western Germany, escaping Russian-controlled territory. In our conversation, my father recalls his earliest memories in Königsbach, where they lived above a horse stall. Winters were brutally cold, and to keep her sons from freezing at night, his mother would bind their hands so they would keep them tucked under the blankets.What I find most striking are the tender memories my father carries from such a devastating time — playing in the woods, building makeshift bridges, learning to navigate the world with curiosity and imagination. He speaks about growing up in post-war Germany with a mother who, despite having lost almost everything, always found ways to create a good life from what they had.As he grew older, his central ambition became rebuilding what had been lost, and one day offering his own family the life he had always dreamed of. Had my father not received a Fulbright scholarship to study in New York — where he met my mother — I would not be here today.Their life together has been one great adventure, and I feel deeply grateful and proud to be part of it.

For decades, the United States stood as the world’s dominant cultural power, shaping global life through Hollywood, Pop Culture, and Silicon Valley. Today, that influence is shifting. Since Donald Trump’s second presidential term began in 2025, Washington has pursued a course that not only reduces cultural outreach – such as cutting exchange programmes like Fulbright – but also signals a substantial shift in geopolitical strategy. The recently published US strategy paper calls for the US to exert significant influence over Europe’s political development, and even encourages „resistance to the current course“ within Europe, raising alarm in European countries. At the same time, inter­national organizations such as UNESCO and the WHO have lost a key partner. The result is a cultural vacuum felt worldwide – from lecture halls to museums to state-funded media. What happens when the former soft power superpower loses its appeal? Who will step in to fill the gap, and what opportunities does this create for Europe to redefine its cultural role? In this episode, Amira El Ahl discusses these tectonic shifts in global influence with Edward Knudsen, who shares insights from his latest report, “Domination Without Hegemony? The Emerging Contest to Fill the US’ Soft Power Vacuum”, published by the ifa research program in cooperation with the Hertie School. Shownotes: Find the ECP report: “Domination Without Hegemony?

For Afghans, listening to a traditional song can bring them back "home." In 2021, when the Taliban seized power again in Afghanistan, orchestras disbanded and musicians fled for their lives. They brought with them their distinctive and storied music, embedded with notes hailing from classical music from Iran and India. IDEAS takes a journey to Afghanistan with members of the Afghan diaspora, and asks how the idea of home is encapsulated in music and how conflict has played a role in reshaping Afghan music.*This is the final episode in a five-part series called The Idea of Home exploring the multiple and contested meanings of home.

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 인간의 지형 | The One With Dr. Xin She – The Geography of Being Human: Across Borders, Between Worlds | Episode 34 (2025)What does it mean to belong everywhere and nowhere at once?In this episode of The More Sibyl Podcast, I sit with Dr. Xin She, a pediatrician, global health scholar, researcher, mindfulness educator, polyglot, and Fulbright Fellow, whose life spans continents, cultures, and ways of knowing. Together, we explore what it means to heal beyond medicine, to find wholeness not in prescriptions but in purpose, compassion, and connection.Born in 1980s Shanghai, in a one-room home without hot running water, Dr. She's earliest lessons in resilience came from bucket showers and blackouts long before she ever entered a clinic. Those childhood experiences later shaped her calling to global health, from Haiti's pediatric wards to the U.S.–Mexico border, where a simple Coke bottle filled with stones can spark joy for a child processing trauma.We talk about motherhood and migration, burnout and rebirth, and the tender work of raising a global citizen; a child who learns empathy not from textbooks, but from refugee camps, shared meals, and birthday cakes at the border. We also reflect on our Fulbright journeys, hers in Mexico and mine in Korea, and the quiet, unseen sacrifices our families make so we can stand in the places we feel called to. Our conversation moves through the meaning of work-life integration, the courage to say no without guilt, and the discipline of creating joy even in places marked by pain.And woven through it all is a simple truth: despite our differences, people everywhere long for the same things: wellness, dignity, connection, and meaning. This episode is a reminder that across borders and experiences, there is always common ground.

Cam and Jen were invited to be on The All About Nothing Podcast. They were asked to discuss the murder of Dr Jennifer Wilson. Dr. Jennifer Lee Wilson was a beloved USC professor, a Fulbright scholar, and a passionate advocate for children's literacy. In 2011, after turning to online dating in hopes of finding love, she met a man who initially seemed charming but soon showed troubling signs of control and obsession. As Jennifer tried to set boundaries and regain her independence, the situation escalated in ways she could never have anticipated. Thank you to Barrett of The All About Nothing Podcast.

La Dra. Ivette Noriega, Investigadora Asociada Sénior en el Centro Begun para la Investigación y Educación en Prevención de la Violencia, Escuela de Ciencias Sociales Aplicadas Jack, Joseph y Morton Mandel, conversó con Lorena Mora-Mowry sobre su experiencia como latina fronteriza. Creció en familias y comunidades con experiencias binacionales, lo que le inculcó un sentido de sacrificio diario para acceder a la educación. La Dra. Noriega estudió la secundaria en El Paso, Texas, y comenzó sus estudios universitarios en premedicina en Texas Tech University. Sin embargo, el inicio de la guerra del narcotráfico en México la llevó a descubrir su pasión por la psicología. Observó la disminución de los factores de protección debido al aumento de la violencia y su impacto en los niños, especialmente los adolescentes, durante este período. Esta violencia llamó su atención porque había poca investigación sobre niños latinos expuestos a este tipo de violencia. Si bien existían estudios sobre Irlanda, Siria y otros países, había una escasez de investigación sobre niños latinos, y reconoció que habría tanto diferencias como similitudes con estas otras poblaciones. La Dra. Noriega se interesó en la beca Fulbright del Departamento de Estado por la oportunidad de intercambio cultural para científicos e investigadores estadounidenses. Conoció a colombianos, como reporteros y científicos, que le contaron sobre la violencia en Medellín en los ochenta y los programas para ayudar a niños y adolescentes con su salud mental y la exposición a la violencia. Tras un rechazo inicial, trabajó con profesores e investigadores y recibió la beca para 2017-2018. En Medellín, vivió en Itagüí, donde recopiló datos, escaneó cerebros y realizó pruebas psicométricas con estudiantes de bachillerato y secundaria para estudiar el impacto de la violencia en su cerebro y memoria. Completó su doctorado y actualmente realiza su postdoctorado en el Centro Begun para la Investigación y Educación en Prevención de la Violencia, Escuela de Ciencias Sociales Aplicadas Jack, Joseph y Morton Mandel en Cleveland. En Cleveland, la Dra. Noriega trabaja con niños expuestos a violencia, enfatizando que la violencia comunitaria afecta a todos, independientemente de la comunidad. Esta violencia puede ocurrir fuera del hogar y la escuela, aumentando la probabilidad de que los niños experimenten violencia doméstica o en la escuela. La Dra. Noriega destaca que la violencia comunitaria no discrimina y puede afectar a cualquier persona, incluidos los niños. También aborda el trauma intergeneracional, donde los padres o abuelos lidian con el trauma de sus hijos expuestos a la violencia. Además, discute el uso de sustancias ilícitas, que puede surgir de traumas, carencias o como medio para reprimir el hambre. La Dra. Noriega concluye la entrevista con un mensaje a la comunidad: “Manténganse conectados, apoyados y dedicados el tiempo”. Participen en eventos comunitarios que ofrezcan información relevante. Hay organizaciones maravillosas en todo Ohio que apoyan a la comunidad latina. No tengan miedo de pedir ayuda. Busquen en línea recursos como ‘casa para latinos' o ‘hogar para latinos'. También pueden encontrar recursos en ferias de salud y al llamar al 211 para obtener apoyo en situaciones de crisis. Si identifican un problema, no se queden callados. Busquen a alguien con quien se sientan seguros y apoyados, y vinculen con servicios que puedan ayudarlos.

When askedabout their preferred platforms for receiving news, approximately one-third ofAmericans (34%) say they prefer television. Only a small percentage preferradio or print, with each garnering 5% of responses. Americanshave diverse preferences when it comes to digital news platforms. About 21% ofU.S. adults prefer getting their news from websites or apps, while 14% favorsocial media. Additionally, 10% prefer using search engines, 6% opt forpodcasts, and 3% prefer email newsletters. Fewer than 1% select AI chatbots astheir preferred source for news. According to a recent Pew Research survey. JackBrewster, the founder and CEO of Newsreel, is leading the charge in redefininghow we consume news. With a background as a journalist for Forbes andNewsGuard, as well as a Fulbright researcher focused on the effects of theinternet on our thinking, Jack aims to make news simple, engaging, andunmissable.  Over thepast decade, he has pondered a critical question: What if the way we consumenews is not only broken but purposefully designed to fail us? After researchingmisinformation, online extremism, and AI-generated content at NewsGuard andForbes, Jack created Newsreel—an app that reimagines news for those who havetuned out traditional forms of media. Imagine a combination of Duolingo and TheNew York Times, featuring interactive timelines, daily briefings, and newstailored to match short attention spans rather than encouraging endlessscrolling. JackBrewster's work has been featured in The New York Times, CNN, and TheWashington Post, and he has appeared on national television numerous times.What distinguishes Jack is that he is not just identifying the problems in newsconsumption; he is actively creating solutions. His work lies at theintersection of media, design, psychology, and technology. For moreinformation, visit: https://newsreel.co/
