Em tempos de desmanche do setor elétrico brasileiro é importante resgatar o fantástico processo de construção do nosso setor elétrico, marcado pela complexidade, sofisticação e desassombro de uma geração brilhante de brasileiros. Dos graves racionamentos dos anos 1940s à constituição da Eletrobras, passando pelas experiências seminais dos gaúchos e mineiros, pela criação de Chesf e Furnas, pelos projetos de lei de Vargas, pela regulamentação do Código de águas, pela criação do GCOI e GCPS, o longo e penoso processo de formação do setor elétrico brasileiro fala muito sobre o que é esse setor e pela engenhosidade e capacidade da nossa gente de construir projetos de futuro complexos e sofisticados. Esse é o tema desse Curto-Circuito 41. O programa é apresentado por Ronaldo Bicalho, pesquisador do Instituto de Economia da UFRJ

L'éducation autour de l'égalité filles/garçons à l'école Anaïs, professeure d'anglais, propose à ses élèves de réécrire les contes traditionnels. Bénédicte, professeure de littérature, intègre à son programme de très nombreux textes d'autrices féministes. En cours d'espagnol, Sébastien, invite ses élèves à réfléchir aux notions de masculinités et de virilité. Natacha, enseignante de SVT, étudie avec elles et eux les différences biologiques entre hommes et femmes, qui sont vraiment peu de chose si on compare aux différences socialement construites… Au lycée Léon Blum, une petite équipe d'enseignants et d'enseignantes déterminées, ont décidé de porter les questions d'égalité au cœur du lycée. Avec leurs élèves, ils et elles mettent en place de nombreux projets : semaines de l'égalité, affiches informatives sur les questions de genre, actions et manifestations dans l'établissement pour sensibiliser aux violences sexistes et sexuelles. Avec une vingtaine d'élèves, ils et elles ont aussi créé les égaux délégués : profs et élèves se réunissent régulièrement pour échanger sur les questions d'égalité, de féminisme et de genre. Un aperçu des réflexions en cours sur ce que pourrait être une école féministe dans une institution pourtant souvent encore frileuse.

À partir de la découverte, de l'étude et de l'analyse d'un livre de raison d'un cordier avignonnais, l'historienne Mélanie Dubois-Morestin nous ouvre les portes du monde de l'entrepreneuriat médiéval. Qui sont les entrepreneurs au Moyen Âge ? Comment gèrent-ils leurs affaires ? Grâce à une source inédite, l'auteur nous plonge au XIVème, après la période de la grande peste (https://www.histoire-et-civilisations.com/thematiques/moyen-age/la-peste-noire-la-grande-tragedie-du-moyen-age-2381.php?utm_source=storiavoce&utm_medium=plateforme_podcast&utm_campaign=podcast_entrepreneur), au cœur de la cité des papes, pour suivre l'aventure entrepreneuriale de l'artisan cordier Jean Teisseire. « Veuille toujours te souvenir de bien écrire tes affaires ; afin qu'elles ne te sortent de la tête , écris-les aussitôt » dit un proverbe génois. Et c'est ainsi que Jean Teisseire conserve avec minutie les traces de son activité dans son « livre de raisons » riche de plusieurs centaines d'actes notariés. Ce livre de raison nous introduit dans l'intimité de ses boutiques et de ses ateliers, et nous fait entrevoir entrevoir la réalité d'un homme au travail au XIVème siècle. Nous découvrons la carrière d'un gestionnaire, ses réseaux professionnels et ses réseaux d'amitiés à l'échelle d'un quartier, d'une région et d'un continent, l'Europe.

Natasha Lennard is a columnist for The Intercept. She has also written for The Nation, The Guardian, Bookforum and the New York Times, among other venues. She currently teaches critical journalism at the New School for Social Research in New York. Her books include Being Numerous: Essays on Non-Fascist Life (https://www.versobooks.com/books/2949-being-numerous), and a co-written anthology of interviews on the question of violence entitled Violence: Humans in Dark Times (http://www.citylights.com/book/?GCOI=87286100350210). In our interview she addresses how she views the role of journalism and critical writing, stressing that communication is “necessary but deeply insufficient” as a means of creating radical structural change. I appreciate the ways that she interrogates the seductive concept of a “marketplace of ideas” and the seemingly unassailable notion of “Free Speech.” Instead, she's invested in ideas of accountability and a public sphere in which we are forced to reckon with how speech acts can “call into being” fascist realities. Rather than calling it “censorship,” Lennard sees a culture of accountability as a matter of intervening to insist on “less oppressive spaces” and emphasizes that a just world would “pivot the center” (in Patricia Hill Collins' words) so that those who are directly affected by hateful material could lead the project of deplatforming fascism. While she acknowledges that Twitter taking away the means of creating what she calls “fascistic lifeworlds” is a progressive step, she also makes it clear that we should not be required to wait for “Silicon Valley Leviathans” to regulate hate, to slowly cave to leftist organizing and resistance. Being Numerous argues for the power of using the term “fascism” to name the authoritarian desires that drive white supremacy; suggesting that it's useful as a means of capturing the violent nature of the forces we oppose, and for calling into being an anti-fascist response. In general, her work is clear about the tensions between materialist politics and social constructivism, drawing from Donna Haraway's notion that the world is made, but not made up. She argues that the struggle of our times is to figure out how to create opposition both “all at once” and slowly and reflectively, as challenging as that inherently is. Rather than offering a simplistically hopeful framing, Lennard asks us to actually engage with the impressively fast rebuilding of a robust left-wing politics after decades of “ideological decimation.”

Sneed's poems not only converse with lovers past and present, but also with her literary forebears—like James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, Audre Lorde—whose aesthetic and thematic investments she renews for a contemporary American landscape. Offering critical focus on matters from police brutality to LGBTQ+ rights, Funeral Diva confronts today's most pressing issues with acerbic wit and audacity. The collection closes with Sneed's reflections on the two pandemics of her time, AIDS and COVID-19, and the disproportionate impact of each on African American communities. Sneed discusses and reads from her work, alongside poet and Literary Hub editor Tommy Pico. FREE, $5-10 suggested donation Buy the authors' books: Pamela Sneed -- http://www.citylights.com/book/?GCOI=87286100510140&fa=description Tommy Pico -- https://bookshop.org/a/11096/9781947793576 Browse Litquake's bookstore here -- https://bookshop.org/shop/litquake

In this collection of poems, written during and immediately after two years on the road as United States Poet Laureate, Herrera reports back on his travels through contemporary America. Poems written in the heat of witness, and later, in quiet moments of reflection, coalesce into an urgent, trenchant, and yet hope-filled portrait. Every Day We Get More Illegal is a jolt to the conscience—filled with the multiple powers of the many voices and many textures of every day in America.

In this episode, Mark talks about the poem that has been a friend to him – ‘Barcarole' by Pablo Neruda - translated by Robert Hass. We're delighted to feature ‘Barcarole' in this episode and would like to thank Agencia Literaria Carmen Balcells, City Lights Books and Frederick Courtright for granting us permission to share the poem in this way. www.agenciabalcells.com www.citylights.com www.permissionscompany.com You can find ‘Barcarole' in ‘The Essential Neruda' - Selected Poems - edited by Mark Eisner, published by Bloodaxe Books in the UK and City Lights Books in the US. https://www.bloodaxebooks.com/ecs/product/the-essential-neruda-957 http://www.citylights.com/book/?GCOI=87286100907730 Mark is in conversation with The Poetry Exchange team members, Michael Shaeffer and Alison McManus. Michael Shaeffer reads the gift reading of ‘Barcarole'. ***** Barcarole If only you would touch my heart, if only you were to put your mouth to my heart, your delicate mouth, your teeth, if you were to put your tongue like a red arrow there where my dusty heart is beating, if you were to blow on my heart near the sea, weeping, it would make a dark noise, like the drowsy sound of train wheels, like the indecision of waters, like autumn in full leaf, like blood, with a noise of damp flames burning the sky, with a sound like dreams or branches or the rain, or foghorns in some dismal port, if you were to blow on my heart near the sea, like a white ghost, in the spume of the wave, in the middle of the wind, like a ghost unleashed, at the seashore, weeping. Like a long absence, like a sudden bell, the sea doles out the sound of the heart, raining, darkening at sundown, on a lonely coast: no question that night falls and its mournful blue of the flags of shipwrecks peoples itself with planets of throaty silver. And the heart sounds like a sour conch calls, oh sea, oh lament, oh molten panic, scattered in the unlucky and dishevelled waves: The sea reports sonorously on its languid shadows, its green poppies. If you existed, suddenly, on a mournful coast, surrounded by the dead day, facing into a new night, filled with waves, and if you were to blow on my cold and frightened heart, if you were to blow on the lonely blood of my heart, if you were to blow on its motion of doves in flame, its black syllables of blood would ring out, its incessant red waters would come to flood, and it would ring out, ring out with shadows, ring out like death, cry out like a tube filled with wind or weeping, like a shaken bottle spurting fear. So that's how it is, and the lightning would glint in your braids and the rain would come in through your open eyes to ready the weeping you shut up dumbly and the black wings of the sea would wheel round you, with its great talons and its rush and its cawing. Do you want to be the solitary ghost blowing, by the sea its sad instrument? If only you would call, a long sound, a bewitching whistle, a sequence of wounded waves, maybe some one would come, (someone would come,) from the peaks of the islands, from the red depths of the sea, someone would come, someone would come. Someone would come, blow fiercely, so that it sounds like a siren of some battered ship, like lamentation, like neighing in the midst of the foam and blood, like ferocious water gnashing and sounding. In the marine season its conch of shadow spirals like a shout, the seabirds ignore it and fly off, its roll call of sounds, its mournful rings rise on the shores of the lonely sea.

In this episode, Jeff sits down with Sarah Cameron, associate professor of history at the University of Maryland and author of the recent book The Hungry Steppe: Famine, Violence, and the Making of Soviet Kazakhstan (Cornell University Press, 2018), which examines an important though oft-overlooked episode in Soviet collectivization, the Kazakh famine of 1930-33. They discuss the causes and consequences of the famine; Sarah’s experience researching the topic in Kazakhstan; why the Kazakh famine is so little known in the West; how Kazakh society interacts with this episode of its history; and the state (and politics) of scholarship on Soviet collectivization.   You can view Sarah’s bio, here, http://history.umd.edu/users/scameron, and you can purchase her book, here: http://www.cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/?GCOI=80140109782010   As always, keep sending us mailbag questions!

Hello everyone! I talked with Tosh Berman, an influential and beloved member of the Los Angeles literary scene, on his new book entitled, Tosh: Growing Up in Wallace Berman's World. This book is a masterful story of growing up as the son of the well-known artist Wallace Berman, who is often referred to as the creator of Assemblage Art and was a beloved figure in the early "beatnik" or hippie scene in California. Tosh recounts his unique childhood and talks openly about the cavalcade of luminaries that visited his home, his father's influence in the art world, and the impact of Wallace's untimely death on the young Tosh.  Tosh: Growing Up in Wallace Berman's World is published by City Lights books, and is a beautifully written, honest, and endearing memoir of a unique upbringing. The book will be available on Amazon and directly from the publisher. You can learn more about Tosh's book, and Tosh himself, here: http://www.citylights.com/book/?GCOI=87286100746120&fa=description Thank you, and enjoy the show!

Welcome to day two of Only Human's Listen Up! bootcamp week. If you're here for the first time, here's how to participate. The Challenge: Find a friend, stand face to face, and reflect the other person like you’re standing in front of a mirror. If they smile, you smile back. If they frown, you frown. Pay attention to your partner and reflect back what you see. Fall in sync, and move together. Watch Only Human's Mary Harris and Paige Cowett demonstrate "mirroring": Okay, we know it seems strange to talk about body language for a listening challenge. We don't listen to body movements or facial expressions. But we would be missing a whole lot of information if we ignored them. Plus, your own body language during conversation communicates a lot, even affecting how well someone tells a story to you. So we took a page from some experts on body language: actors. Okieriete “Oak” Onaodowan performs two very different types of characters in the smash hit musical Hamilton. Being able to read and “mirror” the body language of others is one of the keys to Onaodowan’s success on stage — and it also helps him better understand and empathize with people in his everyday life. Fay Simpson teaches movement at the Tisch School's graduate acting program at NYU. She developed a physical training method for actors called The Lucid Body, and often has her students “mirror” each other as a frequent exercise in the studio. “When you understand body language,” Simpson explains, “you understand the intention of someone, what they want from you.”   Do the mirroring exercise with a partner, then tell us what it was like for you. Did you get past the awkwardness? Did you learn something about your partner? Leave us a voicemail at (803) 820-WNYC or send a voice memo to onlyhuman@wnyc.org  To make sure you hear every challenge, subscribe to the Only Human podcast on iTunes or anywhere else using our RSS feed.

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay! 1. Dr. Mark "Ogunwale" Lomax speaks about the recent attack on the Black Church Community. The founding pastor of the First African Presbyterian Church of Lithonia, Georgia, he has served there since 1993. The Rev. Dr. Lomax is also Assistant Professor of Homiletics at the Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC) since 1998. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Heidelberg University in Tiffin, Ohio; a Master of Divinity degree from Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio; and a Doctor of Ministry degree from United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio. Dr. Lomax has served on various Presbytery and General Assembly committees and task forces, and as Interim President-Dean of the Johnson C. Smith Theological Seminary.

Stephanie Rawlings-Blake on Democratic strategy … Gary Donaldson on LBJ and Ike … and Nancy Altman on the future of Social Security.   Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, the secretary of the Democratic National Committee, says the party needs to talk to voters about issues they care about. Professor Gary Donaldson recalls an era when the two titans of their parties – Lyndon Johnson and President Eisenhower – worked together for the good of the country. And one of the country’s top experts on Social Security says the program can and should be expanded.   Stephanie Rawlings-Blake Stephanie Rawlings-Blake is the mayor of Baltimore and an up-and-coming force in the Democratic Party.

The PEN America Center’s organizational focus is the effect of world events on the safety and freedom of expression of writers, so the topic of war naturally looms large in its cultural consciousness. As part of the recent PEN World Voices Festival, Polish journalist and author Wojciech Jagielski was interviewed by Joel Whitney, a founding editor of Guernica: A Magazine of Art & Politics.  Jagielski began his career on assignment in the former Soviet Union and then spent a decade in Afghanistan. He became particularly interested in how countries with trenchant ethnic divisions seem so often to wind up in the midst of seemingly irresolvable conflicts. His most recent book, The Night Wanderers, is on Uganda and the problematic resistance leader Joseph Rao Kony, a now recognizable name thanks to a wildly circulated viral video. The PEN World Voices event took place at the Brooklyn Public Library on May 2 and was introduced by Meredith Walters, the director of exhibitions at the library. Listen to the talk between Jagielski and Whitney by clicking on the link above. Bons Mots: Jagielski on becoming a foreign correspondent: "It was easy choice because in the '80s, when we [Poland] were the colonist country, writing about Poland and politics in Poland, it was not the job for the journalist, it was the job for the politician, the activist." Jagielski on child soldiers: "The scenario was always the same. At night the guerillas were attacking a village … and they were taking hostages, the children. It was planned action because it was easier for children to be made a soldier. I was even told the best age to be kidnapped … to be made a future guerilla, was eight to 10 years." Jagielski on Idi Amin: "The stereotype was created in Western media. The real Idi Amin was not the same person that we have from the movies, from the books."
