Ffilm 32 munud, 51 eiliad o hyd a wnaed gan José Alejandro Restrepo ym 1999 yw Paso del Quindío II. Mae'r ffilm yn ail-greu'r ‘carguero' olaf – pobl a oedd yn cario teithwyr Ewropeaidd drwy'r jyngl fynyddig anodd yn wreiddiol. Mae gwaith Restrepo yn ystyried y cysylltiadau pŵer cymhleth sy'n gysylltiedig â'r weithred hon o gario. Yn y ffilm, mae cymeriad gwrywaidd canolog yn dyfalbarhau'n dawel wrth iddo garo menyw ar ei gefn; mae hi'n eistedd ar gadair ‘guadua' (math o fambŵ) ac mae ei gefn ef ar ongl 60 gradd i'r ddaear. Mae'r gadair wedi'i chlymu wrtho â darn o ffabrig wedi'i lapio o dan y sedd ac am ei dalcen chwyslyd. Mae'r dyn canol oed yn berson o liw ac mae ganddo wallt byr du a llecyn moel. Mae'n droednoeth ac yn gwisgo trowsus byr gwyn a chrys T llwyd sy'n colli ei liw, gan ddal ffon bren denau hir er cydbwysedd. Mae'r fenyw sy'n eistedd hefyd yn berson o liw a chanddi wallt du byr ac mae'n gwisgo crys du â darnau patrymog amryliw, trowsus byr ac esgidiau glaw mwdlyd du. Meddai Restrepo, “Mae un o weithgareddau gorau hanes yn ymwneud â phwy sy'n llwyddo i osgoi deddfau cynrychioli a dehongli.” Yn 2007, cafodd arddangosfa Displaced, Contemporary Art from Colombia ei churadu gan María Clara Bernal a Karen MacKinnon a'i chyflwyno yn Oriel Gelf Glynn Vivian. Ochr yn ochr â darnau neilltuol eraill, roedd Paso del Quindío II yn ganolog, oherwydd pŵer ei ymagwedd ôl-drefedigaethol a'i ymgysylltiad â gwleidyddiaeth hunaniaeth ddiwylliannol. Cafodd y gwaith hwn ei brynu drwy gynllun caffael y Gymdeithas Celfyddyd Gyfoes ar ran Oriel Gelf Glynn Vivian yn 2010. Mae José Alejandro Restrepo yn artist o Golombia a aned ym 1959. Astudiodd y celfyddydau gweledol yn Universidad Nacional de Bogotá a'r École des Beaux-Arts ym Mharis ar ddechrau'r 1980au, gan gael ei ysbrydoli gan waith Bill Viola a Gary Hill. Dros y degawdau, mae wedi archwilio deinameg pŵer cynrychiolaeth weledol drwy gyfuno fideos, cerfluniau a'r archif. Mae ei waith yn archwilio hanesion gormes a gwrthsefyll sy'n llunio bywyd yn America Ladin, gan chwilio am ystyron newydd mewn naratifau gosod, a gofyn pa archifau gweledol a ddefnyddir i greu hanes – a pham. Roedd fersiwn gyntaf y gwaith hwn, Paso del Quindío I (Bwlch Quindío I) (1992), yn garreg filltir yn ei yrfa. Gan gynnwys 17 o sgriniau wedi'u trefnu ar lefelau amrywiol adeiledd pyramidaidd, dangosodd y gwaith ddeunydd o heic yr artist i fyny bwlch mynydd yn yr Andes ym 1991. Recordiodd y daith o uchderau gwahanol; mae rhai lluniau'n dangos cyflymder tawel, ond mae eraill yn cyfleu symudiad cynhyrfus rhywun ar y copa. Drwy'r esgyniad hwn, ail-greodd deithiau fforwyr Ewropeaidd y 19eg ganrif fel Alexander von Humboldt a Max von Thielman. Yn wahanol i'r fforwyr hynny, a gyflwynodd eu gwaith o safbwynt gwrthrychol, cydnabu Restrepo, er gwaethaf ei ymchwil hanesyddol a'i brofiad uniongyrchol, mai dim ond dehongliad arall mewn cadwyn hir, llawn “copïau o gopïau”, oedd ei brosiect.
Paso del Quindío II is a 1999 film by José Alejandro Restrepo, duration 32 minutes 51 seconds. The film is a reconstruction of the last ‘carguero' - human carriers who originally assisted European travellers cross the difficult mountainous jungle terrain. Restrepo's work considers the complex power relations this act of carrying signifies. In the film, a central male figure quietly persists as he carries a female on his back, seated on a chair made of guadua (a kind of bamboo), his back at a 60° angle to the ground. The chair is secured to him with a piece of fabric wrapped under the seat and around his visibly sweaty forehead. The middle-aged man is a person of colour with black short hair and a bald patch, barefoot, wearing white shorts and a discoloured grey t-shirt, holding a long thin wooden stick for balance. The seated woman is also a person of colour with short black hair, wearing a black shirt with multicoloured pattern patches, shorts and black muddy wellington boots. Restrepo said: “One of history's great games is about who manages to elude the laws of representation and interpretation.” In 2007, Displaced, Contemporary Art from Colombia, was curated by María Clara Bernal and Karen MacKinnon and presented at Glynn Vivian Art Gallery. Alongside other outstanding works, Paso del Quindío II was pivotal, both for the power of its post-colonial position and its engagement with the politics of cultural identity. This work was purchased through the Contemporary Art Society's Acquisitions Scheme for Glynn Vivian Art Gallery in 2010. José Alejandro Restrepo, is a Colombian artist born in 1959. He studied visual arts at the Universidad Nacional de Bogotá and the École des Beaux Arts in Paris in the early 1980s, drawing inspiration from the works of Bill Viola and Gary Hill. Over the decades, he has explored the power dynamics of visual representation through the interplay of video, sculpture, and the archive. His work examines histories of oppression and resistance that shape life in Latin America, seeking new meanings from prescribed narratives, asking which visual archives are used to create history—and why. The first iteration of this work Paso del Quindío I (Quindío Way I) (1992) marked a landmark moment in his career. Featuring 17 monitors arranged on various levels of a pyramidal structure, the work displayed footage of the artist's 1991 hike up a mountain pass in the Andes. He recorded the journey from different elevations; some images show a calm pace, while others capture the agitated movement of someone at the summit. His ascent reconstructed the journeys of 19th-century European explorers such as Alexander von Humboldt and Max von Thielman. Unlike those explorers, who presented their work as objective, Restrepo acknowledged that despite his historical research and first-hand experience, his project offered “just one more interpretation in a long chain…just copies of copies.”

All ideas have a history, no matter how inevitable and well-entrenched they may seem to us today. The later Enlightenment was a heady time when people were exploring new conceptions of nature, humanity, and the self. Andrea Wulf is a writer of narrative histories, examining the origins of ideas through the lives of the people who explored them. In this episode we discuss three of her books: The Invention of Nature, about Alexander von Humboldt and environmentalism; Magnificent Rebels, about the Jena circle of Romantics including Goethe, Schiller, Schlegel, and others; and most recently The Traveller, about George Forster, an early naturalist, ethnographer, and champion of human equality.

Today on MuniCast we are diving into a growing relationship that is taking shape across Saskatchewan, the relationship between Saskatchewan Municipalities and First Nations.Welcome to Season 10 of Muni-Cast.MuniCast is brought to you by SUMA, the voice of Saskatchewan's urban municipalities. MuniCast discusses topics that are important to municipal leaders, like local governance, best practices, education, and so much more. This season, conversations will dive into how municipalities can get the most value from SUMA's offerings—from building meaningful connections through networking, to strengthening capacity through education, advancing local priorities through advocacy, and gaining direct access to government officials.Today we are discussing the work between first nations and Saskatchewan Municipalities, whether that is promoting the understanding of Treaty rights and Truth and Reconciliation among Saskatchewan's urban municipalities and how we can facilitate relationship-building between First Nations and municipalities.We caught up with Former Mayor of Saskatoon, and now Charlie Clark, the Saskatchewan Office of the Treaty Commissioner Treaty Relations Lead, to discuss the work that the OTC does to promote relationship building between First Nations and municipalities, and why it's important to focus on building those relations today. We now turn our attention to an organization that has been long in building and fostering a relationship between First Nations and municipalities across Eastern Saskatchewan. Sylvite Four-Six is a unique regional partnership formed to prepare for significant growth, catalyzed by one of the largest private sector investments in Saskatchewan history – BHP's $14B potash mine near Jansen, Saskatchewan. We caught up with Board Chai Brent Sunshine of Fishing Lake First Nation, and Outgoing Vice Chair Joe Day, City Manager for the City of Humboldt. We discuss how working together has strengthened the project, and what they have learned from each other. -----Learn More About SUMA: Website: https://suma.org/Facebook: https://facebook.com/SUMAConnectTwitter: https://twitter.com/SUMAConnectLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/saskatchewan-urban-municipalities-associationInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/suma.connectYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SUMASask-----Listen to the Show: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5QLq7OluynaodZyd7c30DN?si=f67427d5b2ec4483Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/municast/id1750494860Youtube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnyOMC0SKIN9AwtusJmC9pLyuaudHP7Bf&si=SnzkKbG0GQvkMLb4-----Music: ‘One Foot On Main Street' written and performed by Jeffery Straker, used with permission.-----Follow the Cross Border Network: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/crossbordernetwork.bsky.social Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/MuniCast is made in partnership with SUMA and the Cross Border Network©2026
Episode #86Mercury is a potent neurotoxin, particularly harmful to young children and developing fetuses. Mercury is commonly present in fish, but in wildly different concentrations based on the life history of the species. What local fish species are safe to eat and at what amounts?Humboldt Waterkeeper is there to help. With our guest fisheries biologist, Ross Taylor, and volunteer fishermen, Humboldt Waterkeeper tested 70 fish across nine species to examine mercury concentrations in fish. Their results? Long-lived species that eat high on the food web have the highest concentrations and should be avoided by those most sensitive to mercury. Other seafood, like salmon, oysters and clams, are good for eating frequently because of their extremely low mercury levels. Want to know if your fish is safe?

Polémique en Allemagne autour des écoles privées pour les étudiants étrangers. Les jeunes, souvent des Indiens, arrivent en Allemagne avec un visa étudiant. Mais sur place, ils sont confrontés aux frais de scolarité, à la précarité des jobs mal rémunérés, parfois même à la suppression de leurs visas avant la fin de leurs cursus. De notre correspondante à Berlin, Promad nous a donné rendez-vous dans un café de Charlottenburg, le quartier de Berlin où il a trouvé un petit job : 20 heures par semaine, un peu plus de 1 000 euros par mois, dans la cuisine d'un burger. Promad, un étudiant indien de 30 ans, est arrivé en 2023 à Berlin, avec son rêve d'Allemagne, le pays de Mercedes et BMW, de la technique et de la protection sociale. Deux ans et demi plus tard, il ne cache pas son amertume envers le système des écoles privées pour étudiants étrangers. Des écoles qui attirent en ligne des milliers de jeunes anglophones à travers le monde, le plus souvent des Indiens. « La qualité des études était très mauvaise. Nous n'avions que deux à trois cours par jour, soit une heure et demie à deux heures par jour. Certains professeurs étaient très bien. Mais globalement, la qualité des études n'avait rien à voir avec ce à quoi je m'attendais », raconte Promad. Certains étudiants indiens ont été expulsés avant la fin de leur scolarité Quelques 60 000 Indiens ont obtenu un visa étudiant en Allemagne. C'est, de loin, la plus grosse communauté parmi les étudiants étrangers. L'Allemagne, qui a un criant besoin en main-d'œuvre qualifiée, avait signé en 2022 un accord migratoire facilitant l'arrivée d'informaticiens ou d'étudiants. Pour ces derniers, c'est souvent la douche froide une fois sur place : un engrenage de frais élevés et de jobs mal payés, qui les empêche d'assister à leurs cours « Les étudiants étrangers ont des emplois tels que la livraison de repas à domicile, dans les entrepôts d'Amazon ou dans des restaurants de fast food. Parce qu'ils sont étrangers, ils ne sont soutenus par aucun syndicat et les douanes, qui contrôlent normalement le respect du droit du travail, n'interviennent pas non plus. Les douanes et les syndicats, ce sont normalement en Allemagne les deux leviers pour faire appliquer le droit du travail », explique Aju John, de l'université Humboldt de Berlin. Plus angoissant encore, l'administration berlinoise a commencé à retirer leur visa à certains étudiants engagés dans des cursus mêlant cours en ligne et en présentiel. Cela ne justifierait pas leur présence sur le sol allemand. Plusieurs dizaines d'entre eux, presque tous indiens, ont même été expulsés avant la fin de leur scolarité. Promad, dont la famille s'est endettée pour financer ses études, n'a pas complètement renoncé à son rêve d'Allemagne. Mais il a quitté son école privée pour une école internationale publique des environs de Berlin.

Episode 182 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we sit down with Nat and Benjamin from Humboldt Seed Company — one of the most respected cannabis seed companies in the world.But before Humboldt Seed Co. became a global name in cannabis genetics… both of these guys were just figuring life out.Benjamin actually wound up in California almost by accident after spending nearly 10 years riding trains across America — exploring life, traveling the country, and living outside the norm.Nat's journey west looked completely different.He was heading toward California with his girlfriend at the time… until she dumped him on the way. Suddenly, he found himself at a crossroads — either go back home to the East Coast or keep pushing west.Thankfully… he kept going.Eventually, these two crossed paths living in a commune in Humboldt County, California — and the rest is history.Founded by Nathaniel Pennington in 2001, Humboldt Seed Company became known for building strong, reliable cannabis genetics while helping push the science and art of breeding forward.Benjamin has also played a major role in helping expand Humboldt Seed Co. internationally — building relationships and helping bring their genetics across the world through partnerships, exports, research, and global cannabis networking. His work has helped push Humboldt Seed Co. far beyond California into places like Europe, South America, Jamaica, and other emerging markets.They're also doing some really cool stuff outside of Cannabis. They're creating seeds and collecting genetics from all over the world of actual vegetables and herbs that you can cook with outside of just the cannabis seeds that they're known for. In this episode we get into:
Für mich war dieses Gespräch ein echter Perspektivwechsel. Ich bin mit der Vorstellung hineingegangen, dass Bakterien ein Teil unseres Lebens sind, und bin mit dem Gefühl herausgegangen, dass sie dessen Fundament bilden. Mir wurde klar, dass wir nicht einfach mit Bakterien leben, sondern dass wir in gewisser Weise aus ihnen bestehen. Sie sind an allem beteiligt: an unserer Energie, unserer Gesundheit, unserem Verhalten und sogar an den großen Systemen wie Klima und Ökosystemen. Gleichzeitig hat mich fast noch mehr überrascht, wie wenig wir eigentlich wissen. Wenn wir ehrlich sind, kennen wir nur einen winzigen Bruchteil dieser Welt. Das stellt viele unserer Annahmen infrage, auch die Sicherheit, mit der wir oft Entscheidungen treffen, die Natur und Systeme tiefgreifend verändern. Die zentrale Erkenntnis für mich ist deshalb dieser Perspektivwechsel: weg von dem Gedanken „wir hier, die Bakterien dort“ hin zu einem Verständnis von echter Verbundenheit. Wir sind kein getrenntes System, sondern Teil eines komplexen Netzwerks. Und genau daraus entsteht für mich auch die Konsequenz: mehr Demut im Umgang mit dem Leben, mehr Vorsicht bei Eingriffen in natürliche Systeme und ein Umdenken, sowohl in der Wissenschaft als auch in unserer Gesellschaft.

Grizzly bears were once native to California, from the redwoods all the way to the Mexican border. Euro-American settlers wiped out the species in roughly 75 years, with the last reported grizzly bear seen near what is now Sequoia National Park in 1924. Despite that literal absence from the state, grizzlies are also still everywhere: from the California state flag, to place names (like Los Osos, meaning "the bears" in Spanish), to college football team mascots, like the Berkeley Golden Bears. A new effort led by the Yurok and Tejon Tribes is proposing to study the feasibility of bringing back our grizzlies to the state. A new bill in the legislature, SB 1305 (Richardson), would direct the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to study potentially reintroducing the species to the state through scientific, socioeconomic, and tribal consultations to assess its feasibility.Tiana Williams Clausen, Director of the Yurok Tribe Wildlife Department, and Peter Alagona, professor at UC, Santa Barbara, join the program to talk about grizzlies in California, both in the past and hopefully the future.

The Trump Administration is taking an axe to the Forest Service. They are "reorganizing" the Forest Service, eliminating Regional Offices and Research Stations. The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) is virtually gone—and with it opportunities for public engagement. And Trump is pushing to get out the cut, meaning bigger, more impactful projects. Kimberly Baker, Executive Director of the Klamath Forest Alliance, is a watchdog for over 5.3 million acres of Forest Service Land and have commented on virtually every timber sale for 25 years. She joins the program to discuss the damage being done to our public forests.Support the show
On April 21st, US Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins rocked the North Coast with a Tweet: She claimed that a Los Angeles-area local water district, the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, wanted to purchase the Eel River dams to operate them for hydroelectric power and provide irrigation. The Water District has since walked back Sec. Rollin's Tweet, claiming that it had no firm plans and its interest was, at present, only exploratory. Now, Congressman Huffman is involved and livid—rightfully so, as he has worked hard on a solution that would work for both parts of his district—and has initiated an investigation into this affair. Alicia Hamann and Scott Greacen of Friends of the Eel River join the show to discuss whether the public should take this threat seriously and what can be done to keep dam removal on track.Support the show
In part one of our series, German explorer Heinrich Barth cuts his teeth learning from some of the great scientists of the age - including the famed Alexander von Humboldt. He survives (barely) an attack by bandits in Northern Africa and conducts a journey through frontiers of three continents, before setting out on an epic expedition that will lead him across the Sahara Desert and into heart of unknown Africa. It is the start of a journey that will last five years and cover more than 10,000 miles. Sponsors: Quince. Get free shipping with your order by using code EXPLORERS at quince.com/explorers Factor.

En #LoncheraInformativa conocimos a Victoria quien es estudiante del Colegio Humboldt de Maracay y nos comentó acerca de un proyecto escolar artístico en el que participó hace poco y como hizo para crearlo e inspirarse.
The Elk River was once idyllic: baby salmon once grew big and healthy in the slack waters of its estuary, Elk once browsed in meadows by the river, and returning adult salmon once laid their eggs in cold river gravel, kept shady by old-growth redwoods. The watershed was stewarded by the Wiyot people. And then colonization screwed things up. The lowlands were diked and drained, turned over to cattle. Elk were killed and the meadows swallowed up by conifer encroachment and homesteads, and clearcutting smothered cold water gravel with sediment from logging roads and landslides. The river is unwell—legally recognized as impaired under the Clean Water Act. And absent intervention, it is unlikely to get better anytime soon. That's where CalTrout comes in. In projects from the river's headwaters to its mouth, CalTrout is working to recover the function of the river. Katy Gurin and Bill Matsubu of CalTrout join the show to discuss their restoration work. Support the show
Spring Fling & The Micro-Rest Revolution: Episode 270 with Heather Pettey, CPC & Dr. Carol Lynn It's a beautiful April, and that means it's time for some spring refreshing with your favorite Life Coach BFFs! Join host Heather Pettey, CPC, and the fabulous Dr. Carol Lynn as they celebrate the vibrant start of spring and discuss tangible ways to reorganize, re-energize, and step into your power. This week, the "dynamic duo" dives into the allergy struggles common this time of year—and correct etiquette for dealing with them in public!—before tackling the main event: the "Micro-Rest Revolution." Heather and Carol explain why finding just 60 to 90 seconds of intentional peace (what they call a "micro-rest") can be more effective for lowering cortisol and resetting your nervous system than a long nap.

Dürfen wir Pflanzen einfach ausreißen, zertreten, als Rohstoff behandeln? Oder haben sie – ähnlich wie Tiere – einen eigenen moralischen Wert, den wir bislang schlicht übersehen? In dieser Folge spricht Peter mit André Eden, wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der TU Berlin im Bereich Ethik und Technikphilosophie. André beschäftigt sich mit einem Gebiet, über das ein Drittel seines Publikums bei Vorträgen zunächst lacht: Pflanzenethik. Zu Unrecht, wie das Gespräch zeigt. Es geht um die Frage, was eigentlich ein Gehirn ausmacht, warum unsere Definitionen von „Auge", „Bewusstsein" oder „Intelligenz" Pflanzen systematisch ausschließen – und was das mit der Art zu tun hat, wie wir heute Massentierhaltung, Jagd und industrielle Landwirtschaft rechtfertigen. Peter und André diskutieren Schleimpilze und Schmerzforschung, Darwins vergessene Wurzelspitzen-These, Alexander von Humboldt, den „Shifting-Baseline"-Effekt bei jungen Menschen auf dem Land – und die Frage, warum Naturbeobachtung ohne Töten heute so selten geworden ist. Ein Gespräch, das unbequem wird, ohne belehrend zu sein. Und das am Ende eine einfache These aufstellt: Wenn Ethik beim Menschen endet, wird die Welt sehr arm. +++ Unser Werbepartner: Upway | Wir haben ein E-Bike für jeden! https://upway.de?utm_campaign=influencer-podcast-peterundderwald&utm_source=influencer-podcast-peterundderwald&utm_medium=brandcampaign +++ Wir sind ab sofort auch auf CampfireFM.

Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact *** Sonia Purnell - Kingmaker: Pamela Churchill Harriman's astonishing life of seduction, intrigue and power Churchill vertrouwde haar volstrekt. Zijn schoondochter Pamela was de beste spion die hij ooit had. En zij kende al zijn geheimen, angsten en heldenmoed. In zijn laatste levensjaren nog ging zij met hem mee als gezelschap op het jacht van Onassis. Daar ontmoette zij niet alleen Maria Callas, maar ook oude vrienden: JFK en zijn Jackie. Pamela Digby Churchill Harriman kende iédereen. Ze was een overlevingskunstenares, geliefde van een lange reeks van de machtigste en rijkste mannen uit heel de wereld en een politiek dier van de buitenklasse. Zij was het die Bill Clinton ontdekte voor het presidentschap. Hij schonk haar een droombaan: ambassadeur van Amerika in Parijs. Ook daar was zij een spectaculair succes. Ze wond Jacques Chirac om haar vinger en wist vrede te stichten in een gruwelijke oorlog. Wát een leven! Margot Dijgraaf - Germaine de Staël. Schrijver, balling en feminist avant la lettre Germaine verslaat zelfs Pamela als vrouw met een avontuurlijk leven in wilde tijden. Ze was briljant, schreef bestsellers in zowel de romanliteratuur als wetenschappelijke en politieke essays. Goethe vertaalde haar, Klemens von Metternich en tsaar Alexander ontvingen haar, Wilhelm von Humboldt was een vriend, filosofen als Friedrich von Schlegel en Benjamin Constant waren haar metgezellen, koningin Marie Antoinette was een vriendin die haar wijze adviezen helaas niet volgde. Haar leven tussen 1766 en 1817 viel samen met alle grote revoluties van die jaren en zij speelde daar een opmerkelijke rol in, kende alle hoofdfiguren, correspondeerde en discussieerde met hen. Haar kasteeltje in Coppet, even buiten Genève, was haar salon en die samenkomsten werden 'de Staten Generaal van Europa' genoemd. Ze had één vijand. Napoleon. Ze kritiseerde hem en zijn ondemocratische machtsdrift rechtstreeks in zijn gezicht. Hij liet haar verbannen en de eerste druk van haar boek over Duitsland vernietigen. Toch werd ook dit een bestseller. Margit van der Steen – ‘Ware wonderdieren’. De eerste vrouwen in de Nederlandse politiek (1917-1927) Wie waren de vrouwen die als eersten in ons land politieke functies konden veroveren? Wat maakten zij mee? Hoe werden zij bejegend? Dit boek is een tijdsbeeld van Nederland en het verhaal van deze pioniers. Het werd ze allerminst makkelijk gemaakt, want op rechts en net zo goed op links waren veel mannen allerminst ingenomen of overtuigd van de waarde van de vrouw in de politiek. Troelstra zag hen als risico voor de komst van het socialistisme. De gereformeerden vonden dat vrouwen geen plaats hadden in de harde wereld van macht en geld. De katholieken vonden het moederschap en niet het bestuur haar ware bestemming. Maar daar trokken de politieke pioniers zich weinig van aan. Fascinerende mensen, voor de duvel niet bang. Leer ze kennen. Suze Groeneweg, Carry Pothuis-Smit, Aletta Jacobs. Maar ook Wilhelmina van Itallie-Van Embden, een meesterinterviewer die Kamerlid werd. Frida Katz, het wetgevingskanon van de CHU. Eiske ten Bos-Harkema, een 'rooie vrouw' die het cachot in moest toen ze een 'MeToo'-schandaal onthulde. De liberalen, die het meest hun best hadden gedaan om het vrouwenkiesrecht te realiseren, werden er niet voor beloond. Algemeen kiesrecht beloonde vooral de socialisten. En veel vrouwen conservatief te stemmen. Florian Illies - Als de zon ondergaat (verschijnt op 12 mei in de Nederlandse vertaling) In de zomer van 1933 was het heerlijk aan de Côte d'Azur. Maar Thomas Mann was wanhopig. Kon hij ooit terug naar München naar zijn schrijftafel, zijn romans, verhalen, essays? Florian Illies' documentaire roman schetst die eerste maanden in ballingschap en de ontworteling van de grote schrijver, zijn familie en hun vrienden in Sanary sur Mer. Hoe dochter Erika een dappere regisseur van het overleven tegen Hitler werd. Hoe zoon Klaus in Zandvoort levensmoe leek, maar in verzet een levensdoel hervond. Hoe zoon Golo van verlegen student een stille held werd. En Goebbels stiekem meekeek. IJzingwekkend. Dik Verkuil - De ongenaakbare Bolkestein Een monumentale biografie die een tijdsbeeld geeft van Nederland in de twintigste eeuw. Van het chique milieu van de Amsterdamse elite, van dat van de studenten vroeger, van Shell als koloniaal bedrijf, van de VVD die transformeerde van nette heren partij naar volkse machtsfactor. En Frits Bolkestein loopt daar doorheen, eigenwijs, horkerig, provocerend, aarzelend tussen conservatisme en liberalisme. Trots op zijn gave van 'haute vulgarisation' die maatschappelijke thema's hielp agenderen. Maar ook tragisch. Want als bewindsman, als Eurocommissaris en als politiek leider in de paarse periode boekte hij nauwelijks concrete resultaten. Het premierschap ontglipte hem door eigen, aarzelende vaagheid. Zijn opvolging werd een drama. En zijn Magnum Opus, het boek dat hij decennialang aankondigde, werd een flop. Maar toch, wát een leven! Kevin Rudd – On Xi Jinping. How Xi's marxist nationalism is shaping China and the World Hoe denkt de machtigste man op aarde? Sinoloog en oud-premier van Australië, Kevin Rudd, durft het aan in het brein van Xi te kruipen en zijn ideologische kerngedachten te ontcijferen. Zo kruipen we met hem in de geest van een totalitair heerser, een man naar wie iedereen in China moet opkijken en die men heeft te gehoorzamen. Meest fundamenteel is het feit dat Xi een ware gelovige is. Het marxisme-leninisme is de enige wetenschappelijk bewezen analyse van de wereld en wie deze zuiver volgt, kán niet falen. Daarom heeft hij met drie correcties het bewind van zijn voorganger Deng Xiaoping diepgaand veranderd. Bij de centrale macht van de Partij en bij de economische verschillen binnen China wijst hij een koers 'naar links' aan. Terug naar Lenin en de jonge Mao. Nivellering en een nadruk op staatsbedrijven. Zuivering in partij en legertop. Bij de nationale identiteit van China wijst Xi naar het verleden, naar de tijd voor Mao. De ideologie, cultuur en zelfs bepaalde zeden en religie uit de keizertijd zijn weer acceptabel. Want China is en was één en superieur. Als rode keizer is Xi wereldlijk leider en spiritueel heerser tegelijk. *** Tijdlijn 00:00:00 – Introductie 00:06:75 – Pamela Digby 00:29:48 – Germaine de Staël 00:42:07 – De eerste vrouwen in de Nederlandse politiek 01:05:48 – De familie Mann op de vlucht voor Hitler 01:12:22 – Frits Bolkestein 01:32:11 – Xi Jinping 01:58:06 – Einde *** Verder luisteren Kingmaker 479 - Winston Churchill.

In this episode, we dive into the experiences of Wade, who spent over two decades living deep in the forests of Humboldt County, California—an area long known for intense Bigfoot activity stretching from Trinidad to Bluff Creek and the Klamath River.What began as small, unexplainable moments slowly built into something much bigger. Wade shares how strange encounters unfolded over the years while living along the coast and later near the Hoopa Reservation, in one of the most active corridors in North America.He describes objects being thrown with no visible source, something watching from just beyond the tree line, and a brief but unforgettable sighting of what appeared to be a juvenile Sasquatch sitting silently on a branch before disappearing into the brush.As time went on, the encounters became more direct. Wade recounts being followed through the forest by vocalizations that didn't sound human or animal, hearing calls that mimicked owls before shifting into something far deeper, and experiencing multiple bluff charges in remote areas near the Klamath River.One of the most unsettling moments came when something massive entered his home in the early morning hours, heavy footsteps shaking the structure as it moved through the space. No evidence was left behind, but the presence was undeniable.This episode covers years of firsthand experiences across some of the most well-known Bigfoot locations in Northern California. Wade shares what he witnessed, what he felt, and how these encounters shaped his understanding of the wilderness.

El pingüino de Humboldt, habitante de las costas de Chile y Perú, se ha convertido en un símbolo de la protección ambiental del Pacífico. Amenazado por la sobrepesca, el cambio climático y la pérdida de hábitat, fue declarado "Monumento Natural" en Chile durante el Gobierno de Gabriel Boric para reforzar su conservación. Sin embargo, la medida quedó paralizada en marzo tras la llegada del nuevo Ejecutivo encabezado por José Antonio Kast, lo que ha reabierto el debate sobre la dependencia política de las cuestiones ambientales. Hablamos con Nancy Duman, presidenta de la ONG Sphenisco, sobre la situación de la especie.También hacemos un repaso a las noticias más relevantes de la jornada con las tensiones entre Cuba y EE. UU. o la actualidad política de Venezuela y Perú. Además, conocemos la exposición de la artista venezolana Andreína Fuentes Angarita, 30 años de irreverencia y visión, en el museo La Neomúdejar, de Madrid en un reportaje que firma Tamara García.Escuchar audio

In dieser Folge geht es um einen Mann, dessen Vorstellung von der Natur und unserem Platz in ihr unser Denken für immer verändert hat: Alexander von Humboldt. Der unermüdliche Naturforscher, Universalgelehrte und berühmteste Wissenschaftler seiner Zeit unternahm abenteuerliche Reisen nach Lateinamerika, Russland und Zentralasien. Dort entwickelte er ein gänzlich neuartiges Verständnis von der Natur als lebendiges Ganzes, als Kosmos, in dem vom Winzigsten bis zum Größten alles miteinander verbunden ist und dessen untrennbarer Teil wir sind. Indem er die Natur in ihrer ganzen Fülle als Lebensnetz begriff, prägte er auch unser Wissen um die Verwundbarkeit der Erde, und er war der Erste, der den vom Menschen verursachten Klimawandel beschrieb. So bleibt er in vielerlei Hinsicht unverändert wichtig – bis heute.Im Gespräch mit der Historikerin Andrea Wulf begeben wir uns auf seine Spuren. Andrea hat vor einigen Jahren mit dem Buch „Alexander von Humboldt und die Erfindung der Natur“ einen internationalen und vielfach ausgezeichneten Beststeller geschrieben, der in 27 Ländern erschienenen ist und etliche internationale Preise erhalten hat. Die New York Times wählte es zu einem der zehn besten Bücher des Jahres, der Telegraf zu einem der besten Wissenschaftsbücher, der Economist zu einer der besten Biografien des Jahres, es gewann den Buchpreis der Royal Society, der im Jahr 1660 gegründeten britischen Gelehrtenvereinigung, u.a.Und auch Andrea selbst ist ein wahnsinnig spannender Mensch: Sie wurde in Indien geboren, ist in Deutschland aufgewachsen und lebt seit rund 30 Jahren in England, wo sie auch war, während wir das Gespräch für diese Weltwach Folge geführt haben.----------------------------------Redaktion & Postproduktion: Erik Lorenz----------------------------------Dieser Podcast wird auch durch unsere Hörerschaft ermöglicht.

Shawn Geffert is a fifth-generation farmer based in Humboldt. He's the first to admit he didn't always think he'd go into farming, but now that he's found his footing, his innovative approach to the industry is notable: strip-tilling, pesticide reduction, and autonomous robots, just to name a few. But with high fertilizer and fuel costs, depressed markets, and trade uncertainty, now is a very challenging time to be a farmer, especially in the midst of spring planting. In this week's episode of Registered, we spoke with Geffert to understand how he sees farming now—and in the future. Here's our conversation.

(Courtesy Schatz Energy Resource Center) Microgrids can be a lifeline in remote areas prone to power outages, according to local and tribal leaders in Humboldt County in California. Leaders spoke at an event on energy security in an era of wildfire, drought, and sea-level rise — linked to climate change. Suzanne Potter has more. Dr. Arne Jacobson, director of the Schatz Energy Research Center at California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt says microgrids often involve solar panels plus battery storage. “During normal operation, they’re connected to the regional grid, and they can export power and generate revenue. And during a regional grid outage, they operate in “island mode” and can provide resilience energy services.” Microgrids have gained popularity in recent years as utilities have had to shut off power intermittently during wildfires and high wind events. Jacobson adds that the Willow Creek and Hoopa substations and their associated circuits in the Humboldt area are frequently on the top 10 list of least reliable circuits in the state. Beth Burks, who directs the Redwood Coastal Energy Authority, says its microgrid serves as backup power to the airport, and kept it online for 15 hours in December 2022, when an earthquake knocked out power. “We’re all familiar with how important it is to keep the airport going. We do emergency medical transport out of there, and the Coast Guard serves 250 miles of search-and-rescue territory. And again, we can keep them going when we go into ‘islanding.'” “Islanding” is the term for a system that can kick in and power a local area when the main utility grid goes down. Heidi Moore-Guynup with the Blue Lake Rancheria Tribe says its microgrid saved the day during the 2022 blackout, keeping several tribal buildings running so they could provide ice, gas, medical care, and lodging. “We want to be known as the safe place to go, the islands in times of despair. We are a very small rural community, but we are engaged in technological advances that can help rural global energy access.” Ketchikan-based artist Savannah LeCornu was selected as this year's poster artist for the Alaska Folk Festival in Juneau, Alaska. (Courtesy Jason Baldwin) Ketchikan, Alaska-based artist Savannah LeCornu was recently selected as this year's poster artist for the Alaska Folk Festival in Juneau. The annual spring event seeks art submissions from Alaska creatives for festival merchandise, including its promotional poster. KRBD's Hunter Morrison sat down with LeCornu to discuss how the opportunity will help expand representation of Indigenous artists throughout Alaska. Hunter Morrison: Can you tell me a little bit about what inspires your work as an artist? Savannah LeCornu: I'm an Indigenous artist. I’m part of three different tribes. I’m Tsimshian, Haida and Nez Perce. So a lot of my inspiration comes from the art styles of my tribes, as well as my family, surroundings, environment, friends, that kind of thing. HM: Can you tell me a little bit more about what mediums of art you specialize in? SL: Yeah. So mainly I draw and I paint. I do a lot of traditional drawing, but I also do digital drawing as well. So, working with Procreate on my iPad. And then I also do painting, mainly acrylic, but I have done watercolor here and there. HM: You were selected as this year’s poster artist for the Alaska Folk Festival. Do you have a design yet for that poster? Or, do you have ideas of what that design might look like? SL: I don’t know how secret they are with it. I will say my inspirations were some of my favorite musicians in Alaska, as well as the northern lights. HM: How will this opportunity expand not only your work as an artist, but expand the celebration of Indigenous people and Indigenous art? SL: Wow, what a great question. What I’m hoping for with being the artist for this year’s folk fest is that my art gets started to be seen more widely throughout Alaska. I will say it’s not my most obvious Indigenous design. I will say all of my art inherently becomes Indigenous because I am Indigenous, but at the same time, there’s no form line in it. There’s no traditional Native art in it for this design. But I still hope that means that people look into my own art and see more of what I do, and that people just explore more of it. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

There was a time when our guest was a diversity skeptic. He actually believed that Justice Clarence Thomas’s thinking on the matter had some validity. Then he began to explore the history of the concept and became a true admirer of the benefits that diversity brings to academic settings, the workplace, science laboratories and all manner of activity. From that he began a thoughtful examination of the science behind the benefits of having previously excluded groups as part of the conversation and decision-making process. And while some argued that simply by using the Socratic Method of challenging convention you could get enough diverse opinions, he began to recognize, as other scholars like Wilhelm von Humboldt and John Stuart Mill did in the 19th century and Charles Eliot, Archibald Cox and Lewis Powell did in the 20th century, that you actually needed people with different backgrounds and life experiences to provide the rich diversity of thought that resulted in better scholarship and outcomes. America’s adaption of diversity in action over the last 50 years seemed to suggest we understood that, so now why the backsliding? We discuss this all today with Berkeley law professor, David Oppenheimer. He is the author of the new book, “The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea.”

For offshore wind to fight climate change, that power needs to reach the larger statewide grid where it can replace fossil fuel electricity generation. The catch? Humboldt's current transmission lines are too small to transmit that power out of Humboldt. New transmission infrastructure has been proposed to solve this problem, with the California Independent System Operator selecting Viridon to build new 500kV transmission lines. While this is a big project, new analysis from the Schatz Energy Research Center found that the cost to California ratepayers is low, about $1.68 per year. Tanner Etherton, Awbrey Yost and Jim Zoellick from Schatz join the show to nerd out over transmission infrastructure planning.For more info, check out these recently-released Schatz reports:North Coast Offshore Wind Transmission Infrastructure Ratepayer Cost Impact AnalysisPower Behind the Redwood Curtain: A History of Electric Transmission and Natural Gas Infrastructure in Humboldt County Have other questions about offshore wind?

"I don't think I had a choice—this is just how my river runs."In this episode of Real Things Living, host Brigitte Cutshall talks with Yousef Benhamida, the systems-driven entrepreneur behind the national brand Humboldt's Secret. Yousef shares his journey from childhood "hustles" to bootstrapping a national empire. He explains why he values a "clean house" and organized systems over raw hustle, and how a relentless refusal to lose drives his success.3 Takeaways:(1) Focus on Not Losing: Yusuf views his habits as a way to avoid the pain of loss rather than following a formal "discipline".(2) Scale through Systems: To grow, you must eliminate chaos by organizing every file and warehouse process so the business can "fly".(3) Be Ready for the "Draft": Success comes from years of preparation so you are positioned to perform when the big opportunity arrives.Connect with Yusuf Benhamida - https://yousefbenhamida.com/Humboldt's Secret Supplies - https://humboldtssecretsupplies.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/yousefbenhamida/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/yousefbenhamida/
