Podcasts about indentured

So, recently I started looking for my first software job. The first offer I received was from a company looking for an intern. The internship had the following conditions: 1) the first 3 months of it are unpaid 2) you have to sign a contract after the 1st month of it that obligates you to stay at the company 2 years after the internship is ended. I rejected it because I felt like you never know what that company may turn out to be. For example, it may try to exploit you and pay you the bare minimum for the job you're doing preventing your career growth and your only option may be to wait for that contract to expire and then start looking for a higher position at another company. I'd like to ask your opinion about: unpaid internships internships that obligate you to stay at the company for 1 or 2 years once the internship is ended companies that follow both of these practices Unpaid internships and indentured servitude

Marc Torres started his journey with Cheba Hut in perfect “cheba” fashion - a failed drug test foiled his job prospects with the City of Fort Collins, and a snarky friend said “you should go work at Cheba Hut, I bet they don't drug test!”.  Marc started on the front line (and claims he remains an excellent sandwich maker) and worked his way up in the ranks to store manager, and eventually became the primary trainer for new franchisees.  He managed a premier location owned by the founder of Cheba Hut, Scott Jennings, and developed many of the systems and training processes that allowed the chain to grow and provide a consistent experience in new locations.  The stories of LoCo Think Tank and Cheba Hut are long intertwined - it was Scott that famously told your host in 2015 - “Bear, you should park that F&$%in' food trailer in your backyard and go get a job”.  A few years into his time with Cheba Hut, Marc got a DUI, and a year later - another one.  This began the “indentured servant” phase of his career, when Scott sent him to live and open a new location in Greeley - and where he reconnected with his now-wife.  He continued to bring value to the franchise, moving to Arizona for a few years to work on (mostly unsuccessful) West Coast expansion efforts, and then returning to Fort Collins as Director of Operations in 2010.  He became COO in 2014, and partnered with Scott and another franchisee to build an HQ-supported super-franchisee designed to open new locations and grow the brand and systems for further growth - and it's been working.  They've recently been among the fastest-growing franchises in the industry; now boast 55 locations and expect to bring 5 more online before year-end, and open another 12-15 locations in 2024!   Marc has been a LoCo Think Tank member almost as long as LoCo Think Tank has existed, originally part of the Thinkers Too chapter and a founding member of our first Next Level chapter.  He's a driven and authentic leader, a first generation college graduate, and you're going to love his heart - so please join as we share the special journey of Marc Torres and Cheba Hut “Toasted” Subs.Episode Sponsor: InMotion, providing next-day delivery for local businesses.

A historical mystery novel set in 1914 Fiji takes readers back to the era of British colonialism - and an economy supported by indentured labourers brought over from India to work on the nation's sugar cane plantations. A Disappearance in Fiji is on the surface a whodunnit set in tropical Suva, but at its heart, it's a story of the plight of indentured Indian labourers and the impact of British colonialism in the Pacific. It's the work of Nilima Rao, an Australian debut author who has been looking at her own Fijian Indian heritage and has traced the story of her great grandparents who went to Fiji in the early 1900s to escape poverty.

In this episode Cyd and David delve into the topic of outdated apprenticeship programs that often trap recent cosmetology graduates in assistant roles. They propose implementing a six-month (or less) education program to swiftly transition new staff members onto the salon floor, enabling them to start making money and building their careers without unnecessary delays. Cyd and David open the discussion by highlighting the conventional path that many hairdressers follow, where they are expected to "pay their dues" through lengthy apprenticeships before fully realizing their potential. They argue that such traditional models fail to capitalize on the talents and aspirations of fresh graduates, leaving them discouraged and financially strained. Drawing from their extensive experience in the industry, Cyd and David outline the potential benefits of an accelerated education approach. They emphasize that a shorter program, focused on practical skills and real-world salon experience, can empower aspiring hairdressers to hit the ground running and quickly establish themselves as valuable contributors to the salon's success.

Episode 15 | "Unpaid Indentured Servants." by Nourishment

Touts: Recruiting Indentured Labor in the Gulf of Guinea (de Gruyter, 2022) is a historical account of the troubled formation of a colonial labor market in the Gulf of Guinea and a major contribution to the historiography of indentured labor, which has relatively few reference points in Africa. The setting is West Africa's largest island, Fernando Po or Bioko in today's Equatorial Guinea, 100 kilometers off the coast of Nigeria. The Spanish ruled this often-ignored island from the mid-nineteenth century until 1968. A booming plantation economy led to the arrival of several hundred thousand West African, principally Nigerian, contract workers on steamships and canoes. In Touts, Enrique Martino traces the confusing transition from slavery to other labor regimes, paying particular attention to the labor brokers and their financial, logistical, and clandestine techniques for bringing workers to the island. Martino combines multi-sited archival research with the concept of touts as "lumpen-brokers" to offer a detailed study of how commercial labor relations could develop, shift and collapse through the recruiters' own techniques, such as large wage advances and elaborate deceptions. The result is a pathbreaking reconnection of labor mobility, contract law, informal credit structures and exchange practices in African history. Dr. Enrique Martino is currently a faculty member at the Complutense University of Madrid, and was previously a fellow at the Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies. Dr. Sara Katz is a Postdoctoral Associate in the History Department at Duke University. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The intention today was to explore, A. The Socio-Political Context of Jamaica and the Caribbean; B. The limitations of Nationalism and Garveyism, C. Caribbean Fanonism. However, we barely addressed those topics as we began by, Tracing an outline of Caribbean within Caribbean Thought: -1492-3 - Columbus- knowledge religion people wealth -Ulterior motive: gold/profit/greed/international competition capital -Slave trade -Sugar plantation society -Heroes and maroons-Abolition riots and loss -Freedom: Emancipation and Independence -Servitude and Indentured labor from China and India -Coming of the Jews-Blacks work for wages -War anti-imperialism Marxism vs capitalism -Nationalism (ideology) 1940-1955 — 1970s 1980s-Independence and short-term prosperity (Bauxite and ownership)1970 Oil crises -Migration (1950s)-Manley vs Seaga (Jamaica)-Castro (Cuba)-Bishop (Grenada)-Migration- brain drain - 1970sRemittances (1970s - 2019)-Caribbean Identity (struggle, conquest, schizophrenia poverty and inequality and dependent capitalism -Globalization -Corruption, Crime and violence -Towards the Future: If the Caribbean is an invention of the 20th century, it seems certain to be reinterpreted and perhaps transcended in the 21st century-Faith, Culture, music, sports and opportunity (science and technology, brain drain as export value, information and technology)-Community: collective sense yet its haphazard and not strategically effective and targeted. We Revisited the issue of Identity within a male-dominated Caribbean society inherited from a Eurocentric Theology that influences sexual identity and places limits on the woman. We asked are institutions inclusive or promote Caribbean feminist ideology of equality, which may mean jettisoning language of privilege? We discussed whether Columbus really discovered or captured Jamaica and the New World, concluding that it depends on the logic or truth that we follow - Pragmatic, Coherent or Correspondence theory of truth. We discussed Rex Nettleford's work on Identity saying: The challenge of identity can best be resolved by a question: Who am I is better answered by who I want to be? We defined some concepts important to Caribbean Thought: Feminism, Nationalism as against Fascism and Extremism, the meaning of socio-political as we explored the socio-political context of Jamaica and by extension the Caribbean. We underscored the importance of the post colonialist method of analyzing and presenting perspectives, lifting up Michel Foucault, Kant, Gramsci, Kenneth Clark etc. We briefly review the importance of Greek chauvinism and Roman influence in the development of Western civilization steeped in privilege. From there we discussed how that has come to define the new world. Then there's the current condition in the world today that the Caribbean find itself asking how it is affected by tense conditions: Who Rules the world? If Corporations/multinationals driven by greed rule America, the most dominant country in the world despite the fact that leadership in the center in softening. However, China and Russia understand this and have used strategy to develop their countries into a market that can entice American Businesses racing to cash in. But China controls consumer behavior and therefore this poses a threat to American dominance as their corporations become dependent on China's market. China and Brazil are also ditching the dollar for Krypto as they seek to unseat American dominance in the world. How will this affect Caribbean? We explored the situation in Singapore and Vietnam comparing them with the Caribbean and how their socio-economic outlook is brighter as investors are rushing there. What can we learn from this? We concluded discussing Neoliberalism, Chapter 3: the Socio-political Context of the Caribbean. The course is offered at The Jamaica Theological Seminary, 3 hours weekly and is a 2200 level course within the Humanities. https://jts.edu.jm. Lecturer: Rev.

Indentures are agreements between two parties about long-term work. The length of servitude might be a specified number of years or until the servant reached a certain age. Some people indentured themselves in order to gain passage to North America or to escape debt and poverty.

During the first half of the 19th century, Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin was a crossroads that attracted men and women of all backgrounds. Among them were five Black women who represented a variety of experiences. Although the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 outlawed slavery in the areas that would become Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, and Ohio, a patchwork of laws enabled white slaveholders to retain possession of four of the five women. Historian Mary Elise Antoine will tell us about the degrees of servitude that existed in Wisconsin and the efforts that some of them took to secure their freedom.

This episode carries content warnings for slavery and indentured servitude, kidnapping, discussion of taxidermy, blood, injury, physical harm, death, and the discussion of sports-related injuries. Here, in Somerset House, drama of the most unlikely kind is afoot.  With the family fortune withering away, the Solstice clan plays host to a pair of powerful Pact dignitaries: the data-magnate Exenceaster March and the notorious Admiral Bel'Agos Bloom.  They aim to draw March away from his loyalties to the Columnar with an exquisite retreat prepared by the house's staff,  featuring hunting, fine dining, and other entertainment. But one after another, the unpredictable has become the occuring: A terrible accident among the hedges. The discovery of an explosive device. And next, the return of an absentee member of the household…  Can Solstice House's staff turn the situation around and save the day? Or is something—like the mysterious, dark pall that surrounds the estate—due to break? Records Recovered from the Divine, Arbitrage Factions The Bilateral Intercession: This faction, made up primarily from Stel Nideo and Kesh assets, was formerly known as the Curtain. The rebranding comes as part of a “civil coup” performed by Cynosure Whitestar-Kesh. In a move that surprised no group more than the Curtain themselves, Cynosure spent years growing in confidence and power, until that intelligence organization could be once again reduced to a tool. Still defined by their traditionalism, they wield their control on culture, religion, and history as a weapon—and the extensive spy network for which they are named when those come up short. The Pact of Free States: While the Bilateral Intercession's name change reflects a shift in leadership and posture for the Curtain, the shift from “The Pact of Necessary Venture” to “The Pact of Free States” is simply the public acceptance of what was already widely understood to be true. Led in name by Dahlia, the Glorious Princept, and in day-to-day operation by senior members of Stels Apostolos and Columnar, the Pact paint themselves as liberal reformists whose aim is to increase the degree of autonomy in each of the Stels, such that they become in reality five separate nations. The Branched: A post-human culture from the Golden Branch star sector who have transformed their bodies into spectacular forms, but who are now weighed down by an endless war with the Principality.   Persons Crevera Solstice (she/her): (Largely absent) matriarch of the Solstice family.  Coughton Solstice (he/him): Crevera's husband.

This episode carries content warnings for slavery and indentured servitude, kidnapping, discussion of taxidermy, animals bred to be hunted, blood, injury, physical harm, death, and the discussion of sports-related injuries. It is often noted that the Bilateral Commission (formerly the Curtain) is mostly comprised of people from Stels Kesh and Nideo, and likewise that the Pact is largely made up of Apostolosians and Columnar. Room is made for exceptions because, in many cases, such cases are all the more important. Thus could be the case of Exanceaster March, Columnar data magnate and long time friend of the (ever diminishing) Solstice family of Kesh. Today, the troubled aristocrats bring their powerful ally to their estate for a visit, during which they hope to persuade March to leave the Pact behind.  For the Solstice family, this could be everything they need to be catapulted back into the upper crust. For their servants, it will be just one more hellish event left for them to clean up after. This week on the Road to PALISADE: Upstairs & Downstairs Records Recovered from the Divine, Arbitrage Factions The Bilateral Intercession: This faction, made up primarily from Stel Nideo and Kesh assets, was formerly known as the Curtain. The rebranding comes as part of a “civil coup” performed by Cynosure Whitestar-Kesh. In a move that surprised no group more than the Curtain themselves, Cynosure spent years growing in confidence and power, until that intelligence organization could be once again reduced to a tool. Still defined by their traditionalism, they wield their control on culture, religion, and history as a weapon—and the extensive spy network for which they are named when those come up short. The Pact of Free States: While the Bilateral Intercession's name change reflects a shift in leadership and posture for the Curtain, the shift from “The Pact of Necessary Venture” to “The Pact of Free States” is simply the public acceptance of what was already widely understood to be true. Led in name by Dahlia, the Glorious Princept, and in day-to-day operation by senior members of Stels Apostolos and Columnar, the Pact paint themselves as liberal reformists whose aim is to increase the degree of autonomy in each of the Stels, such that they become in reality five separate nations. The Branched: A post-human culture from the Golden Branch star sector who have transformed their bodies into spectacular forms, but who are now weighed down by an endless war with the Principality.     Persons Crevera Solstice (she/her): (Largely absent) matriarch of the Solstice family.  Coughton Solstice (he/him): Crevera's husband. An absolute pushover. Carvisle Solstice (he/him): The cruel son of Somerset House. Catalina Solstice (she/her): Adventurous older daughter of the house, who's never met a cause she wouldn't turn into a vanity project.  Catrina Solstice (she/her): Morose younger daughter of the house with a special interest in taxidermy.

It didn't always take thirty years to pay off the cost of a bachelor's degree.  In Indentured Students: How Government-Guaranteed Loans Left Generations Drowning in College Debt (Harvard UP, 2021), Elizabeth Tandy Shermer untangles the history that brought us here and discovers that the story of skyrocketing college debt is not merely one of good intentions gone wrong. In fact, the federal student loan program was never supposed to make college affordable. The earliest federal proposals for college affordability sought to replace tuition with taxpayer funding of institutions. But Southern whites feared that lower costs would undermine segregation, Catholic colleges objected to state support of secular institutions, professors worried that federal dollars would come with regulations hindering academic freedom, and elite-university presidents recoiled at the idea of mass higher education. Cold War congressional fights eventually made access more important than affordability. Rather than freeing colleges from their dependence on tuition, the government created a loan instrument that made college accessible in the short term but even costlier in the long term by charging an interest penalty only to needy students. In the mid-1960s, as bankers wavered over the prospect of uncollected debt, Congress backstopped the loans, provoking runaway inflation in college tuition and resulting in immense lender profits. Today 45 million Americans owe more than $1.5 trillion in college debt, with the burdens falling disproportionately on borrowers of color, particularly women. Reformers, meanwhile, have been frustrated by colleges and lenders too rich and powerful to contain. Indentured Students makes clear that these are not unforeseen consequences. The federal student loan system is working as designed. Elizabeth Tandy Shermer has written about labor, politics, and education for the Washington Post, HuffPost, and Dissent. Author of Sunbelt Capitalism: Phoenix and the Transformation of American Politics, she is Associate Professor of History at Loyola University Chicago. Tom Discenna is Professor of Communication at Oakland University whose work examines issues of academic labor and communicative labor more broadly. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we continue our discussion with Nathan B. Oman, the W. Taylor Reveley III Research Professor and Co-Director of the Center for the Study of Law and Markets at William & Mary School of Law. Nate specializes in Contract Law, the Economic Analysis of Law, Jurisprudence, Law and Religion, and Legal History. Today, we're discussing his 2009 article, Specific Performance and the Thirteenth Amendment, published in the Minnesota Law Review. As I mentioned in episode 1, the article first came to my attention this summer, when the internet erupted with suggestions that the specific performance clause in the Elon Musk (more precisely, X Holdings) merger agreement with Twitter wasn't enforceable because of the 13th Amendment. As you heard in our last episode, Nate strongly disagrees with that take.  I've split my discussion with Nate into two parts. In Episode 1, largely driven by questions from UVA Law 3Ls Bridget Boyd and Jenn Scoler, we discussed the Musk-Twitter litigation and the various provisions of the merger agreement, including the specific performance provision and the termination fee. In this episode, we delve more deeply into Nate's analysis of the scope of the 13th amendment's prohibition against indentured servitude and its relation to the specific performance of personal service contracts. As always, we spend some time on examples from the world of sports . . . because hey, we're in Virginia. Links:Nathan B.

Join Catherine Ingrassia for a fascinating discussion of her latest book, “Domestic Captivity and the British Subject, 1660–1750.” Indentured servitude was common in colonial America. When voluntary, it allegedly offered dispossessed British subjects the opportunity to improve their situation after their term. However, the practice of kidnapping or “spiriting away” people into involuntary indentured servitude occurred with great regularly. This talk discusses two fictional representations of the case of James Annesley (1715–1760). The heir to an Irish barony, Annesley's uncle had him secretly kidnapped as a child and sold as an indentured servant in Virginia where he labored for fourteen years. When Annesley finally returned to England, he was the subject of more than sixty publications in London all of which emphasized his role as an “indentured slave.” These British narratives about colonial America give voice to persistent anxieties about the potential captivity of British subjects on colonial soil. More forcefully, they also reveal a concern about the potential erosion of male British identity within a corrosive climate where ignorant Americans masters hold them captive. The narratives strategically represent the American masters as particularly brutal to compensative for the vast British financial interests in the West Indies, the site of notoriously horrific conditions for enslaved people. In addition to discussing Annesley's captivity, the talk will also consider other states of domestic captivity common within England and elaborate upon the especially threatening conditions for women held captive within a colonial, domestic space. Catherine E. Ingrassia is Professor and Chair in the Department of English at Virginia Commonwealth University. In addition to her most recent book Domestic Captivity and the British Subject, 1660–1750, she is the author or editor of six other books including Authorship, Commerce and Gender in Eighteenth-Century England: A Culture of Paper Credit and the Cambridge Companion to Eighteenth-Century Women Writers. The content and opinions expressed in these presentations are solely those of the speaker and not necessarily of the Virginia Museum of History & Culture.
