How does time figure in racial domination? What is the relationship between the capitalist organization of time and racial domination? Could utopian thinking give us ways of understanding our own time and its dominations? In Race, Time, and Utopia: Critical Theory and the Process of Emancipation (Oxford University Press, 2025), William Paris uses the tools of critical theory to draw out the utopian interventions in the works of W.E.B Du Bois, Martin Delany, Marcus Garvey, Frantz Fanon, and James Boggs. Arguing that utopian thinking gives us normative purchase on the problems of our own time, Paris shows not that these historical figures can tell us how or to what end we navigate our current crises. Rather, their insights and failures help us denaturalize our mode of life and develop self-emancipatory practices to realize what is not yet possible under the current conditions of injustice in which we have come to be.

Matt Crawford speaks with author Dr. Makhdum Ahmed about his book, Race for a Remedy: The Science and Scientists Behind the Next Life-Saving Cancer Medicine. How does a mere molecule—a chemical structure—become a drug? And, how do we know that it works safely? In a one-trillion-dollar pharmaceutical industry with high-stakes profits and perils, battles are raging every day to successfully bring a molecule to its birth: an FDA-approved medicine. In Race for a Remedy, internationally renowned expert in cancer treatment and drug development Makhdum Ahmed, MD, takes readers behind the scenes of the fascinating and intense world of cancer drug development. Whether it's a small molecule, a versatile monoclonal antibody, or the fancy, poster child of cutting-edge cell therapy, modern drugs are built upon a centuries-old solid foundation set by the pioneers of medicine and immunology. This revealing book also explores the struggles for current-day pharmaceutical and biotech industries to overtake competitors and make sure their molecule reaches the finish line first. For leading cancer drug developers, that means achieving the ultimate goal: creating the next live-saving cancer medicine. Readers will also find answers to common questions on drugs, such as: How long does it usually take for a drug to come to market? When can we expect a cure for cancers like leukemia and lymphoma? Are experimental medicines unsafe? Given my illness (or that of my loved one), should I join a clinical trial and what are the odds it will help? A leading medical expert on the frontlines of drug creation, Dr. Ahmed offers basic pharmacological insights, revolutionary science, and the gripping arc of new drug development. Race for a Remedy will change the way readers think about medicine.
The United States has more guns than people and more gun violence than any Western democracy. Scholars in diverse fields interrogate why 21st century Americans support gun ownership and valorize vigilantism even as they fear gun violence. Many question how the NRA – National Rifle Association – has successfully lobbied for radical gun laws that most Americans don't support. In Race, Rights, and Rifles: The Origins of the NRA and Contemporary Gun Culture (U Chicago Press, 2023), Dr. Alexandra Filindra highlights political culture. She argues that the NRA depends upon political narratives that can be traced back to the American Revolution. Rather than focus on the constitution, Lockean liberalism, rule of law, or individual rights, she argues that the American Revolution depended upon classical republican ideals – especially the martial virtue of the citizen-soldier – that became foundational to American democracy. American gun culture fuses the republican citizen-soldier with White male supremacy to create what Filindra calls ascriptive martial republicanism. Her book demonstrates how the militarized understandings of political membership prominent in NRA narratives and embraced by many White Americans fit within this broader revolutionary ideology. Even as contemporary NRA narratives embrace 18th and 19th century versions of ascriptive martial republicanism, the NRA radically decouples political virtue and military service by associating virtue with the consumer act of purchasing a firearm. Rather than emphasizing military service or preparedness, consumer choice defines the politically virtuous citizen. White Amerians embrace this combination of civic republicanism and White male supremacy but Filindra's research shows that they also hold a competing form of republicanism (inclusive republicanism) that includes a commitment to peaceful political engagement, civic forms of voluntarism and participation, and a strong belief in multiculturalism. In the podcast, Susan mentions previous podcasts on Katherine Franke's Repair: Redeeming the Promise of Abolition and Drew McKevitt's Gun Country: Gun Capitalism, Culture, and Control in Cold War America. Dr. Alexandra Filindra is an Associate Professor of Political Science and Psychology at the University of Illinois Chicago. She specializes in American gun politics, immigration policy, race and ethnic politics, public opinion, and political psychology. George Lobis served as the editorial assistant for this podcast.

Paddock Pass Podcast - Motorcycle Racing - MotoGP - World Superbike
On this week's podcast Steve and Gordo chew over a feast of WorldSBK from Most. After a slow burning start to the season we've now finally had the fight we've been waiting for; Toprak vs Bautista. In Race 2 it was stunningly competitive with the Yamaha man doing all he could to keep the Ducati at bay. In the end it wasn't to be and for the Paddock Pass Podcast crew it provided lots of action to pick through!
It was another successful and classic (in more ways than one) Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach. The Grand Prix Association of Long Beach reported that it was the best crowd (192,000 fans) since the reunification of CART and the IRL. The last of the remaining grandstand seats sold out Saturday night. What started off as a cold and drizzly week, morphed into mild and mostly sunny weather that helped keep everyone comfortable throughout the weekend. In the headlining NTT IndyCar Series, Kyle Kirkwood earned his first NTT Pole Award on Saturday in the fantastic Firestone Fast Six qualifying session. Last year's Indy 500 winner, Marcus Ericsson, joined Kirkwood on the front row. At the drop of the green flag, Kirkwood kept his lead into Turn One. Last year's winner Josef Newgarden moved up four places within the first few laps and was running strong all race until he made his last pit stop before all the other leaders. Perfect strategy if there's a caution, although none came and with his forced fuel save, he dropped to ninth at the end. Kirkwood had no such problem with fuel and earned his maiden victory in the series followed home by his teammate Romain Grosjean (who qualified third) who had plenty of push-to-pass left but since he pitted a lap earlier (and was saving fuel), was unable to use it. Ericsson closed in over the last few laps but had to settle for third. In the IMSA WeatherTech Series Sports Car race, Felipe Albuquerque stormed to the pole position in his Wayne Taylor Racing Acura ARX-06 GTP car by 0.674 seconds over the similar Acura of Meyer Shank Racing. He mentioned that he was glad he was starting the race and Ricky Taylor would be driving second because the Michelin tires were taking a long time to heat up. Prophetic words indeed as the Penske Porsche 963 team of Nick Tandy and Matthew Jaminet chose not to change tires at their single pit stop and parlayed that into the first victory for the new Porsche GTP car. In GTD PRO Jack Hawksworth and Ben Barnicoat took their Lexus RC F GT3 to Victory Lane while Madison Snow and Bryan Sellers stood on the top step of the podium for the third-straight year with their BMW M4 GT3. In the Porsche Deluxe Carrera Cup races, Riley Dickinson earned the pole for Race 1 and brought his Porsche 992 home for the win. In Race 2, Will Martin enjoyed the first win of his career in this series. In the Historic Formula One Challenge races, Patrick Long made it a clean sweep winning both races driving a 1983 Williams FW 08C. These races were truly fan favorites as the sights, sounds and smells of the classic F1 cars were spectacular. Two of the cars in the field were powered by 12-cylinder engines including local SoCal driver Tim DeSilva who qualified second for the first race in the same Alfa Romeo that Andrea de Cesaris put on the pole at Long Beach back in 1982. Most were powered by the venerable Ford Cosworth DFV V8. Other sensational marques from the past included BRM, Lotus, March, McLaren, Penske, Shadow, Surtees and Tyrell. All-in-all, it was another fabulous weekend of racing. Stay tuned as we'll have upcoming podcast interviews with some of the winners and others who help make the world of racing go ‘round.

When African American servicemen went to fight in the Vietnam War, discrimination and prejudice followed them. Even in a faraway country, their military experiences were shaped by the racial environment of the home front. War is often viewed as a crucible that can transform society, but American race relations proved remarkably durable. In Race in the Crucible of War: African American Servicemen and the War in Vietnam (U Massachusetts Press, 2023), Gerald F. Goodwin examines how Black servicemen experienced and interpreted racial issues during their time in Vietnam. Drawing on more than fifty new oral interviews and significant archival research, as well as newspapers, periodicals, memoirs, and documentaries, Goodwin reveals that for many African Americans the front line and the home front were two sides of the same coin. Serving during the same period as the civil rights movement and the race riots in Chicago, Detroit, and dozens of other American cities, these men increasingly connected the racism that they encountered in the barracks and on the battlefields with the tensions and violence that were simmering back home.

GUEST: Luke Rosiak. He joins Ari to talk about his new book, Race to the Bottom: Uncovering the Secret Forces Destroying American Public Education Everyone wants: High schoolers to graduate well-prepared for jobs. Improved STEM literacy. Greater achievement for inner-city children. Happiness for all children. So why are liberals spending billions of dollars working against those goals? In Race to the Bottom, Luke Rosiak uncovers the shocking reason why American education is failing: Powerful special interest groups are using our kids as guinea pigs in vast ideological experiments. These groups
So much of training and racing is mental that we went all in on it today. How to deal with doubts, heat, and feeling tired. We look at why we get tired and why often it's as simple as breaking a pattern. How do you keep going when the mind says no? We talk about ways to be more engaged in a race, along with in-race recovery along with training methods to keep things interesting and give you confidence . . . even when it's fleeting. Controlling thoughts and calming the mind is truly one of the greatest things you can do for your training and racing. Topics: Seasonal EPO Phone a Friend Thank the volunteers Camaraderie on the race course When the run gets lonely Breaking lethargy during the day or race Intentional Training We need energy to be motivated Priority Scheduling Cat Naps De-cluttering the brain Find time away from noise De-compress during the day Let your thoughts run wild and don't react Time alone - anxiety, drinking, depression How to use music during your workouts Meditation to calm down Heat - Mental Training You're the only one who knows if you gave it all That first mil of running can give you huge doubts Trainers and gamers Don't judge your race too early In Race “brain breaks” Boca Del Vista Update Mike Tarrolly - CrushingIron@gmail.com Robbie Bruce - C26Coach@gmail.com www.c26triathlon.com
GLORY to corn! Welcome back to Iowa where IndyCar decided to get corny with a pair of races brought to you by Hyvee, who pumped a whole load of money into the place! We nicknamed this weekend "The Ballad of Josef Newgarden" because it all revolved around him. In Race 1, he led 208 out of 250 laps, stretching out a 60 lap final stint into an 80 lap stint fueling saving, and crushing the field. He was set to do the same in Race 2, leading over half the laps on the table but then his rear right damper broke and sent him hurtling into the wall. Just when Josef was back in title contention, that crash sent him hurtling back down the table. Not only that, he collapsed outside his trailer in the Iowa sun after the wreck and had to be airlifted to hospital to make sure he was alright. Thankfully he'd be fine, but we talked all about the incredible 36 hours the title contender faced. Speaking of title contenders, those two races gave us a pretty clear "Championship Six" between Marcus Ericsson, Will Power, Pato O'Ward, Scott Dixon, Josef Newgarden and Alex Palou, all within a race on points. We discuss the situation and who we think has the best chance heading down the stretch with five races left. And finally, holy shit, Alex Palou got SUED by his own team boss, at Chip Ganassi Racing. It's been another turbulent week for the Spanish ace, questions about his immediate future, his medium-term future as Chip considers parking him for the 2023 season, and McLaren distancing themselves from a potential buyout. What next in the biggest silly season story of them all? All that on Motorsport101!
We ADORED the Belmont Days of racing last Friday and Saturday! Maybe our favorite race cards of the year! Timestamps follow as always. Forget the complaints about small fields, there were almost no undercards, the calliber of horses and races were so good! 3:03 Friday's Race 9, the True North G2 showed what a baller (and a boy) Jackie's Warrior is. 5:15 Friday's Race 10, the New York G1, had 4 Chad Brown entries, including the great Bleecker Street, Family Way (an Uncle Mo kid) and Flighty Lady, who came in for Trixie. 8:15 Saturday's Race 2 was an allowance where Weej won with Uncle Moonlight, progeny of… who else?! 8:43 R3, the Acorn G1, ended up with the 4 horses of the Apocolaypse after Echo Zulu's late scratch. Matareya dominated. 10:21 The Just a Game G1 turf, R4, offered a nice story for Peter Brant, owner of Just a Game,and now, of winner Regal Glory. 12:51 R5 was the Brooklyn G2, which Fearless won for Weej. 13:32 R6, the Woody Stephens G1 crowned Jack Christopher as a Elite
In a week where: P&O Ferries fired 800 people with plans to rehire via an agency. F1 is back. A Boeing 737 operated by China Eastern Airlines crashed in southern China with 133 people aboard. Russia moves into the Ukrainian seaport city Mariupol. LeBron James moves into 2nd place in NBA All-Time scoring. In Climate: (6:37) In the continuation of the slow death of civilisation at the hands of ourselves, apparently the Arctic & Antarctic suffered 'extraordinary' levels of heating, which I'm sure will raise no alarms to the powers that be.In Education: (20:28) We return to the lives of teenagers, specifically teenage girls and the genuine epidemic of girls with mental health issues.In Race & Society: (35:59) The story of Child Q, a girl who was strip-searched by police in school, has caused people to protest and even school kids walking out of school in defiance. I'm just wondering what kind of power trip you need to have to traumatise a girl in this way.Lastly, in Tech: (46:36) The rise (rebirth?) of 'Dumbphones' - built in the essence of pre-smartphone mobiles - has given people a place to go if they're sick of the worst parts of having a smartphone. Would you ever consider binning your smartphone for the good ol' 3310?Thank you for listening!

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck and Sam turn their attention to our public school system and the mess that progressives have made of it. First, they are joined by Tom Horne, former Superintendent of Public Instruction for Arizona who is currently running for that office again. Later in the program, Luke Rosiak of the Daily Wire joins the show to talk about the startling discoveries he made while researching his new book, Race to the Bottom, including the Loudoun County school rape that made headlines during the Virginia election last year.

As Superintendent, he is most famous for enforcing the English immersion mandate for mostly Spanish-speaking children and getting rid of La Raza studies in Tucson schools. As Attorney General, he earned acclaim for winning lawsuits for Arizona that he argued before the U.S. Supreme Court. Luke Rosiak is an investigative reporter for the Daily Wire and the author of a new book released this week Race to the Bottom. In Race to the Bottom, Luke uncovers the problems in K-12 schools and the shocking reason why American education is failing.

In Film/TV: (8:38) "Bel-Air", the dramatic reboot of the comedy classic "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" has come through after originating as a viral short. Is "Bel-Air" the future of the TV reboot?In Society: (21:26) The concept of free speech is still something that is hard to grasp at times, but like most things, you can learn from history. So let's take a trip to 17th Century Britain.In Race & Society: (31:39) The term "decolonisation" is one of those buzzwords that people love blowing up about without actually looking into it. But was it ever part of the "culture war"?Lastly, in Music: (49:56) We've heard it before, "you look like a person that listens to...". We always see our tastes in music as an extension of ourselves. But some say your music tastes actually say nothing about you.Thank you for listening!

Citizens of Kazakhstan protest. State responds with a violent response. Actor Sidney Poitier dies aged 94. Calvin Simon, the co-founder of Parliament-Funkadelic, dies aged 79. In Race & Society: (3:53) "The Colston Four", four people involved in the dunking of Bristol's Edward Colston statue, were acquitted by a jury. And whilst we can conversate about whether this "sets a precedent", I just want to gas up the collective of people that decided to do what Bristol councillors were, for some reason, hesitant on.In Music: (15:25) The UK Music Industry is still reckoning with The Exit and la di da, the Government isn't providing much help.In Film/TV: (31:42) I personally have always been side-eyeing the concept of "Method" acting but never really looked into it. But luckily for me, my hunch was right. The process is not what you think it is.Lastly, in Education: (44:09) We finally have some evidence of school students being taught a more diverse curriculum.

Richard Powers's prize-winning Overstory was an impassioned evocation of the natural world and a call to arms to save it. In his latest novel, Bewilderment, a father and son navigate a world seemingly bent on destruction. Powers tells Andrew Marr how the father, an astrobiologist, models planets in far away galaxies searching for life, while his nature-loving 9 year old struggles to understand why earth's life forms are so thoughtlessly destroyed. Mya-Rose Craig, aka ‘birdgirl', is a young British-Bangladeshi ornithologist and activist. From a deep love of bird watching she has gone on to become a prominent environmentalist. In ‘We Have A Dream' she speaks to 30 young indigenous people of colour to find out how their environments have been affected by climate change, and why young people are so involved in protecting the natural world. The journalist Simon Mundy argues that climate change is affecting more than just the environment: everything from energy, farming, technology and business, as well as migration. In Race for Tomorrow, Mundy has travelled the world talking to the people at the front line of this transformation, from those battling to survive the worst impacts, to those eager to reap the financial rewards.

In Race to the Bottom: How Racial Appeals Work in American Politics (U Chicago Press, 2020), LaFleur Stephens-Dougan argues that we focus on the use of negative racial appeals by the Republican Party, while ignoring the incentives that exist for some Democratic candidates to use race as much as, if not more than Republican candidates. The conventional wisdom is that a Democratic candidate would never be incentivized to invoke race and activate negative racial predispositions. Yet, according to the author, Democratic politicians regularly invoke negative stereotypes about African Americans. On numerous occasions President Obama, for example, publicly chastised black audiences. And, while it might seem surprising that a Democratic politician would use rhetoric that disparages their most loyal constituency, Obama is just one of many Democratic politicians who have been criticized for invoking negative stereotypes about African Americans for political gain. Stephens-Dougan explores when and why politicians of both parties will use negative racial appeals. LaFleur Stephens-Dougan is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Princeton University. Her book Race to the Bottom: How Racial Appeals Work in American Politics won the 2021 David O. Sears Best Book on Mass Politics Award from the International Society for Political Psychology, and the 2021 Ralph J. Bunche Award from the American Political Science Association. Host Ursula Hackett is Senior Lecturer in Politics at Royal Holloway, University of London. Her Cambridge University Press book America's Voucher Politics: How Elites Learned to Hide the State won the 2021 Education Politics and Policy Best Book Award from the American Political Science Association.

After Laura Arata first visited Virginia City, Montana in graduate school, she became fascinated by the story of one historical figure—Sarah Bickford, a former slave, who migrated to this frontier, mining town in the late 1860s, and became a prominent business owner who promoted tourism at the site of a famous lynching of white “lawbreakers” by the Montana Vigilantes. In Race and the Wild West: Sarah Bickford, the Montana Vigilantes, and the Tourism of Decline, 1870–1930 (University of Oklahoma Press), a fascinating work of historical recovery, Arata provides a compelling biography of Sarah Bickford and the larger story of black life in the rural West. Ryan Driskell Tate holds a Ph.D. in history from Rutgers University. @rydriskelltate Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It was the 129th GP of the hybrid era. 146 since a Ferrari, Mercedes or Red Bull failed to win. 24 YEARS since a French driver topped the podium. On Episode 261, we talk Pierre Gasly, and the Miracle in Monza. F1: No really, Pierre Gasly won. Seriously. We break down how. There was a massive accident at mid-distance as Charles Leclerc oversteers himself into Parabolica wall, drawing a Safety Car and Red Flag as Kevin Magnussen's Haas died right by pit entry, causing the pitlane to be closed, however... Lewis Hamilton and Antonio Giovinazzi box during closed pit lane due to K-Mag failure, both get 10-second stop/go penalties. Pierre Gasly however, beat the clock, gained track position on the restart, Stroll gets a free pitstop under red, and Verstappen retires on engine failure after the restart. Sainz guns down Gasly at the end, falls maybe 1 lap short, Stroll 3rd after poor 2nd start. Hamilton drives mad, goes from 17th to 7th on restart after serving penalty. We mention Sebastian Vettel suffering an early brake failure and Nicolas Latifi finishing 11th in the final race for Williams as we know it (but more on that in 262) In F2, we all got dewey-eyed as a Schumacher won in a big red car at Monza. Aww. He took the feature race win after a dream start going from 6th to 2nd in one corner! He would take the W over Luca Ghiotto and Christian Lundgaard after Callum Illot stalled it in the pits. As for the sprint race, Dan Ticktum dominated in hilarious fashion, needing the medical car to get back to pit lane... but his car didn't have enough fuel for a sample so he was chucked out via DQ. So Callum Illot won instead ahead of Lundgaard and Mick! And in F3, Frederick Vesti won Race 1 ahead of Frederick Vesti wins Race 1 ahead of Theo Pourchaire and Oscar Piastri goes from 15th to 3rd, Logan Sargeant DNF’s after being spun off, Prema taking the team title back to "Titletown". In Race 2, Jake Hughes scores a win as Liam Lawson got given a late time penalty promoting Smolyar to his first F3 podium!
Welcome back to Motorsport101, and in this edition, Andre Harrison, Ryan King and Zoe Hamilton break down IndyCar's Dual in Detroit! In Race 1, Scott Dixon made history by taking 3rd on the all-time wins list, in a tight contest with Ryan Hunter-Reay, brought into play via a Graham Rahal shunt to the wall. In Race 2, Alexander Rossi dominated the early going, but went too hard on his tyres and paid the price as a rampant Hunter-Reay caught up the extra stop and reeled the youngster in, beating him via a puncture in the late going! All that and a lot more here, enjoy!
You always hear about "race strategy" but what does it really mean when applied to your actual training? Today, we look at how you can set a race plan that you can ACTUALLY HOLD during a race. We give you a different perspective on "what to count" from your long rides, when you should make critical decisions within a race, and some of the biggest mistakes you can make on race day. - How to get the most out of long rides - How to know when you can PUSH in a race - How to feel your best on race morning - Understanding what you can really hold on race day - The biggest mistake you can make on the bike - The nutrition puzzle and why WHEN you take calories makes a BIG difference for your GI issues - The best way to ruin your race - When and how to make critical In-Race decisions - Where you likely make the biggest mistakes in your race - Making SMART vs. IMPULSE decisions - Visualizing your race If you like the Crushing Iron podcast, you can support us here.

Urban sociologists typically use a few grand narratives to explain the path of the American city through the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. These include industrialization, mass immigration, the “Great Migration,” deindustrialization, suburbanization (or “white flight”), gentrification, and postindustrial/neoliberal growth policies, among others. In Race and the Politics of Deception: The Making of an American City (New York University Press, 2017) , Associate Professor Christopher Mele shows readers the more granular details of this history. Focusing on growth, decline, and revitalization of Chester, a small city in Pennsylvania near Philadelphia, Mele specifically reveals how race, or an ideology and discourse of racial blindness, have been used as a strategy of exclusion since World War I. Proceeding chronologically, the book examines how the politics of growth in Chester have revolved on ideas of race, from housing segregation to civil rights clashes. It culminates with the present-day realities of life in Chester, in which the city boasts a casino, a soccer stadium, and a redeveloped waterfront, mainly for visitors, while its majority population of low-income minorities get labeled as either compliant participants in (e.g. as low-wage workers) or obstructions to (e.g. as criminals or deviants) this image and growth. The imagery ignores the structural conditions that create their poverty. Mele provides a new, fascinating lens for looking at the relationship between race and space in the city. Richard E. Ocejo is associate professor of sociology at John Jay College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY). He is the author of Masters of Craft: Old Jobs in the New Urban Economy (Princeton University Press, 2017), about the transformation of low-status occupations into cool, cultural taste-making jobs (cocktail bartenders, craft distillers, upscale men's barbers, and whole animal butchers), and of Upscaling Downtown: From Bowery Saloons to Cocktail Bars in New York City (Princeton University Press, 2014), about growth policies, nightlife, and conflict in gentrified neighborhoods. His work has appeared in such journals as City & Community, Poetics, Ethnography, and the European Journal of Cultural Studies. He is also the editor of Ethnography and the City: Readings on Doing Urban Fieldwork (Routledge; 2012) and serves on the editorial boards of the journals Metropolitics, Work and Occupations, and the Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography.

Every year, Americans rightly honor civil rights icons who stood up for the principle of equality enshrined in our founding documents. Few are aware, though, of the ties between the civil rights tradition and the principles of classical liberalism. In Race and Liberty in America: The Essential Reader, Jonathan Bean has compiled an anthology of primary documents by both well-known leaders like Frederick Douglass and unsung heroes like individualist and abolitionist Lysander Spooner, Brooklyn Dodgers manager Branch Rickey, and others who helped strip government of the ability to discriminate on the basis of race. ?Classical liberalism,? writes Bean, a scholar at the Independent Institute and this Sunday?s guest, ?is a philosophy of individualism; its history is peopled by a mix of iconoclasts, contrarians, lone dissenters, courageous rebels, and powerful political leaders.? Tune in to learn from Bean how classical liberal ideas motivated these key figures in the struggle for civil rights. He and Bob will also discuss how new ?progressive? forms of discrimination undermine the principles behind historical victories for justice and equality.
