“History is written by the winners.” This aphorism is catchy and it makes an important point that a lot of what we know about history was written with an agenda, not for the purposes of informing us. Unfortunately, it isn’t true. There are many times that the so-called “losers” wrote the histories remembered today. After the American Civil War, Southern historians like Edward Pollard crafted "Lost Cause" narratives, romanticizing the Confederacy despite their defeat. Similarly, Chinese and Persian accounts of the Mongol invasions, such as those by Zhao Hong and Ata-Malik Juvayni, detailed Mongol brutality and cultural impacts from the perspective of the subjugated, challenging the victors' dominance. But this statement still gets to a fundament question: What if the history you learned was deliberately shaped by people with their own agendas? This question drives today’s guest, Richard Cohen, in his book “Making History: The Storytellers Who Shaped The Past.” We explore how historians and storytellers, from ancient Greece to the modern era, shape our understanding of history through their biases and agendas, featuring figures like Herodotus, who blended fact and fable, Edward Gibbon, whose Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire reflected his personal perspective, and William Randolph Hearst, whose yellow journalism distorted historical narratives. No history is truly objective, as personal, cultural, and political influences inevitably color the accounts of chroniclers like Thucydides, Tacitus, Voltaire, but we can still construct an understanding of the past that brings us closer to the truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Queen Anne Hotel in San Francisco has been a fixture of the Pacific Heights neighborhood for more than 100 years. As the name reveals, this is an old Victorian styled house - a big one! Before it was the boutique hotel it is today, it was a school for girls run by headmistress Mary Lake. Mary loved the place and seems to have returned in the afterlife. She is one of the reasons many feel that this is the most haunted hotel in San Francisco. Join us for the history and hauntings of the Queen Anne Hotel.

It's an action-packed day at the History of Literature! First, Jacke recounts the story of Dr. Johnson racing to the aid of his friend, the playwright Oliver Goldsmith, whose landlady was threatening him with debtor's prison. Naturally, the great critic and dictionary author Johnson found a very literary way to help. Then Jacke is joined by author Ken Krimstein, whose graphic novel Einstein in Kafkaland: How Albert Fell Down the Rabbit Hole and Came Up with the Universe looks at the critical year that Albert Einstein spent in Kafka's Prague. How did these men - one a scientist, the other an artist - approach the world's biggest questions? And finally, Bartholomew Ryan, a scholar who's devoted his life to Fernando Pessoa, stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read. Will he choose something by Pessoa?

Ama are Japanese female fisherwomen and free divers who plunge into the ocean without oxygen tanks, or other modern diving equipment. They dive for shellfish and seafood, particularly abalone. In recent years, their numbers have declined as climate change has taken its toll and the diving population has grown older. Today, they remind us of the importance of tradition and environmental stewardship.

Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate creativity - Episode 402 - The Future of History - My hope is that listeners get more out of their AI interactions - and I certainly will be helping you along the way.  I also plan nothing less than for "Celebrate Creativity" to become a vibrant, intergenerational hub for exploring the enduring power of human imagination, supported by the exciting possibilities of modern technology.You might  "Use an AI bot (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity), and ask it to compare and contrast the poetic styles of Edgar Allan Poe and Walt Whitman. Specifically, ask it to discuss their use of meter, imagery, and themes of nature/death. After you get the AI's response, read one poem by each author (e.g., Poe's 'Annabel Lee' and Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!'). Do you agree with the AI's analysis? Where does it align, and where does your own reading diverge?  Of course you can obviously do a lot more, but we get into that later.I'm just throwing out these ideas, and showing you what can be done - which is very important - not necessarily asking that you do these activities right now - but we certainly will get into that and a lot more later.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Benjamin Wittes and Eric Ciaramella to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“With Arms Wide Open.” After years of open skepticism toward Ukraine (and uncharacteristic deference to Russia), it seems President Trump may have turned a page. His rhetoric has grown cooler toward Russian President Vladimir Putin, and he has proven more willing to provide arms to Ukraine, even over contrary efforts by some of his advisers—including an agreement to provide Ukraine with Patriot missiles and other U.S.-made, Europe-funded weapons. What explains this switch? And how durable is it likely to prove?“Hitting Foggy Bottom.” Just days after the Supreme Court removed a preliminary injunction, the State Department went forward with substantial personnel cuts, RIFing 1,350 foreign and civil service personnel in Washington, D.C. It's all part of a much broader reorganization that State Department leadership claims will make the Department leaner or more efficient, even as it guts personnel working on issues disfavored by the Trump administration. “Waiting for the Intel Impressment.” Since the Trump administration's June 21 airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, a heated debate has raged over their effects. The administration maintains the strikes were “historically successful” and permanently set back the Iranian nuclear program. But media reports source to people within the intelligence community have suggested a much more limited effect. How should we weigh these competing claims? And when will we know the truth?In object lessons, Ben asks for your public service in supporting Lawfare's Public Service Fellowship. Scott pulled a Quinta with his recommendation of the New Yorker essay “Zohran Mamdani and Mahmoud Khalil Are in on the Joke,” by Hanif Abdurraquib.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910), known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, and essayist. He was praised as the "greatest humorist the United States has produced",[1] with William Faulkner calling him "the father of American literature".[2] Twain's novels include The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884),[3] with the latter often called the "Great American Novel". He also wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and Pudd'nhead Wilson (1894) and cowrote The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today (1873) with Charles Dudley Warner. The novelist Ernest Hemingway claimed that "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn."[4]

When we think of Ireland's past, we usually envisage an island shaped by two languages: Irish and English. But hidden in the history of South Wexford is Yola, a unique dialect that survived for centuries after the Norman invasion, only to vanish almost without a trace.In this episode, I am joined by Sascha Sanchi Cooney to explore the fascinating story of Yola: where it came from, who spoke it, what it sounded like, and why it disappeared. From medieval settlers to the Great Vowel Shift and the impact of Cromwell, the history of this dialect is intriguing.Get a copy of Sasha's 2019 book The Forth & Bargy Dialect at your local library https://waterford.spydus.ie/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/FULL/WPAC/BIBENQ/458376473/1314333,1Follow Sasha's work on Linkedin https://ie.linkedin.com/in/sascha-santschi-cooney-76a885188Sound by Kate Dunlea.

On Monday, May 19, 2025, we mark the 100th birthday of Malcolm X—a centennial honoring a life shaped by self-transformation, Black self-determination, and an unwavering commitment to global liberation. His words and actions continue to challenge systems rooted in white supremacy, now desperately clinging to power through international self-dealing, global realignments, and domestic attacks on voting rights, birthright citizenship, and national identity.Since his assassination in 1965, one question persists: What would Malcolm say now? From The Autobiography to ongoing efforts to define—and redefine—his legacy, from dialogues with elders, organizers, artists, and scholars, we remember Malcolm not just as a man, but as representative of an ongoing, unfinished movement.As explored in many sessions of In Class with Carr, Malcolm taught us to witness—and to act. White nationalism's violent death rattle is not a moment for silence. As Malcolm said: you don't make peace with injustice. You finish the job.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Emma Kaʻilikapuolono Metcalf Beckley Nakuina (1847-1929) was a highly regarded authority on Hawaiian water rights law and unofficially considered Hawaii’s first female judge. Descended from an American sugar planter and a Hawaiian high chiefess, she was born a kaukau ali’i and educated in cultural customs and water rights from a young age. She was a curator of the Hawaiian National Museum, a Commissioner of Private Ways and Water Rights, a supporter of women’s suffrage, and a prolific writer on Hawaiian culture during the colonization of her homeland.

Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica.

In a new exhibition, Chicago's Floating Museum pays homage to Bronzeville's Mecca Flats through its Floating Monuments series. Built in 1892 as a hotel for visitors to the World's Fair, the Mecca Flats was later converted into apartments that served Chicago's African American community on the South Side. But by the 1950s, the building was demolished to make way for the Illinois Institute of Technology's S.R. Crown Hall. Now, the Floating Museum is honoring the Mecca Flats' contribution to Chicago's culture with an inflatable replica of the apartment building. Reset examines the history of the Mecca, the legacy of urban renewal and the displacement of Black residents with Faheem Majeed, artist and co-director of the Floating Museum, and Rebekah Coffman, curator of religion and community history architecture at the Chicago History Museum.

Immigration. It's a topic that ignites passion, confusion, and often division. These days, the word “immigrant” can split a room in half and not always politely. 

But here's the truth: whether documented or undocumented, immigrants have always been part of the American story. They've built railroads, harvested crops, launched companies, cared for families—not just their own—and they've done all this while paying billions in taxes.ImmigrationNation of immigrantsTimeline of immigration policyWho benefits from all these immigration reforms?Today's undocumented labor.How the US benefited from immigrants.How to Fix it?Want to adopt my foster puppy?

Contested City: Citizen Advocacy and Survival in Modern Baghdad (Stanford UP, 2025) offers a history of state-society relations in Baghdad, exploring how city residents managed through periods of economic growth, sanctions, and war, from the oil boom of the 1950s through the withdrawal of US troops in 2011. Interactions between citizens and their rulers shaped the social fabric and political realities of the city. Notably, low-ranking Ba'th party officials functioned as crucial intermediaries, deciding how regime policies would be applied. Charting the social, economic, and political transformations of Iraq's capital city, Alissa Walter examines how national policies translated into action at the local, everyday level. With this book, Walter reveals how authoritarian governance worked in practice. She follows shifts in mid-century housing and urban development, the impact of the Iran–Iraq and Gulf Wars on city life, and the manipulation of food rations and growth of black markets. Reading citizen petitions to the government, Walter illuminates citizens' self-advocacy and the important role of low-ranking party officials and state bureaucrats embedded within neighborhoods. The US occupation and ensuing sectarian fighting upended Baghdad's neighborhoods through violent displacement and the collapse of basic state services. This power vacuum paved the way for new power brokers, including militias and neighborhood councils, to compete for influence on the local level.

Features a preview of the Debut Single "Young Romilly Sinks" by Bolton 'band' The Bolton Bardeaters.  Hi guys! It's been about two years since I've launched a podcast, but I wanted to give you what I hope is exciting news. First, if you keep listening, you're going to hear the trailer for a new podcast that launches this week called the InterestingPOD hosted by me. It's the first podcast I've produced in almost two years, and I'm really excited about it. I'd tell you more, but if you'll keep listening just a few minutes, the trailer will tell you everything you need to know. Another bit of news too - this podcast, which began in 2019 as the Bible Mystery podcast, is about to have it's fifth rebirth as the BEACHcast. The Beach kind of has a double meaning. I live in the Monterey/Salinas area of California now, just a few miles from the beach, and I've always been a beach guy. More than that, Beachcast is an acronym that stands for Bible Exploration, Apologetics and Church History, and that podcast is planned to launch ALSO in July of 2025. I look forward to talking to you about some fascinating Bible topics like Whether Christians should Pray to Mary/Pray to the Saints, the Reliability of the Bible, Can historians prove Jesus existed? Does communion/the Eucharist, literally turn into the Body and Blood of Jesus? What is the Number of the Beast - is it 666, or maybe even an older number written down in the oldest manuscript of Revelation that we have!  There will be lots more of those kind of topics too, as we relaunch shortly to explore the Bible, apologetics and the fascinating world of Church history. I'm Doctor Chase, your host, but if you meet me in real life, it's just plain Chase.  I have a doctoral degree in counseling, and am finishing up work on a PhD in history, and I love doing a deep dive on these kinds of topics, and I hope you'll join in! Ok, that's all for the beachcast…just stay tuned - I hope to have the first episode out later in July, Lord willing and the Creek don't rise.  Oh yeah, by the way - the first episode of InterestingPOD, which will drop later this week, is about the Bolton Strid. If you don't know what that is, you will soon, but I'll just tell you it's one of the most dangerous stretches of water in the entire world, and is supposed to have a 100 percent fatality rate for anybody who falls in, even though it mostly looks like a regular river. But buddy, it's anything but regular. Before I play the trailer for the upcoming podcast, let me play a clip from a song about the Bolton Strid from a band we “commissioned” for the first episode of InterestingPOD. (each episode will have its own song!) The band is local to Bolton, in Northern England where you'll find the Strid, and they're called the Bolton Bardeaters. Here's their song about the Strid, which features lyrics by Friend of the Show William Wordsworth. Buckle up…it hits hard.   

Theo Dorgan - The history of Penguin - Back to the Future at 40

Beta Trip, the new project from Toronto multi-instrumentalist Steve Lewin, announces his debut full-length album Superette, out September 26 on Having Fun, the rock imprint of We Are Busy Bodies. The first advance single, “Juliet,” lands June 13 and offers a high-energy introduction to Lewin's matured sonic vision. Melodic, emotionally resonant, and firmly rooted in the atmospherics of Britpop and the grit of 90s alternative rock, “Juliet” kicks off a ten-track journey that bridges nostalgic textures with fresh perspective. It marks Lewin's return to his roots under the Beta Trip moniker, drawing influence from Elbow, Radiohead, and Pearl Jam. “Juliet” is a hook-heavy, propulsive alt-pop song that examines misguidance, both in others and in oneself, while leaning into themes of growth, perspective, and closure. With layered guitars, rich harmonies, and a melodic sensibility that balances grit and shimmer, the track brings a catchy collision of melody and drive. Though it carries the appearance of simplicity, “Juliet” was crafted over many years, performed for audiences across the world in varied ideations, but never recorded, until now. It finally came together amidst the reflection and recalibration that sparked Beta Trip, and in doing so, not only found its way onto Superette, but easily claimed itself as the lead single. The result sets the tone for an album that fuses introspection with anthemic energy.

Have you ever wondered why genealogy captivates so many people? Whether it's tracing a family tree back generations or holding on to stories told around the dinner table, genealogy offers a powerful sense of connection—a connection that can shape identities, claims of property, and even arguments for freedom. But genealogy isn't just a modern-day hobby. In early America, genealogy was a deeply consequential practice with social, political, and legal implications. Karin Wulf, a Professor of History and the Eighth Director and Librarian of the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University, joins us to explore the ways early Americans were interested in their family histories with details from her book, Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America.

Across political, social, and spiritual spheres, humanity faces a reckoning with the structures of power that shape our world—and the urgent need to turn from putting our faith in unreliable actors in favor of putting our faith in ourselves and responding to oppression with collective action.The recent acquittal of the police officer killers of Tyre Nichols, Donald Trump's continued assaults on both international institutions and domestic democratic norms, and the rising threat of regional international wars are all points of entry for deeper reflection on the meaning of collective human purpose—focusing on broad movements for liberating social change despite the constant noise of daily events. Against this backdrop, the selection of Pope Leo XIV (Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost) as the leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics raises a pressing question: How can moments that command the attention of billions signal a renewed call to renegotiate the foundations of the modern world order?At this critical juncture—amid the accelerating decline of the Age of Europe and White World Supremacy and the emergence of truly multipolar global relationships—even faith, whether in the divine or in each other, can feel insufficient. But history reminds us that, while individuals alone cannot dismantle entrenched institutions, people acting together can. As U.S. courts begin to challenge the most flagrantly illegal acts of federalized white nationalism, and as institutions such as markets and universities resist authoritarian pressure, more and more people are turning to the most potent force in any society: collective action. Whether through town halls, protests, or civil disobedience, communities are rising up.As this commencement season—a time of hope and renewal—unfolds, we are reminded of a timeless truth: belief must be made real through action.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
