This Week on 'The Price for Paradise'

In this podcast, we cover - Jessica Fishman's journey dealing with her mother's death and inheriting the BRCA1 mutation Living, while knowing you will get cancer.  Navigating survivorship, finding a way back into the society and enhancing meaning through giving back to the community Jessica Fisherman is the Founder of a Non-Profit called, Soulful Sunflower. Jessica was 34 when she was diagnosed with TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer). She was overwhelmed researching products that could have potential reactions due to chemotherapy. She began researching companies that made "good" products for cancer patients. She started getting products and giving them away for free to others.  Soulful Sunflower provides products for free to the cancer community. They go directly to companies to make sure that their product is safe, but can not predict everyone's allergies or sensitivities and do not take responsibility and accept no liabilities. This is a completely free box that is sent directly to people that have either been nominated by friends or family members or they nominate themselves through social media.  Key Moments: At 18 minutes and 41 seconds: I have such little energy, and I need to focus that energy on the good parts (of life).  At 25 minutes: It is okay to be vulnerable. People understand, even if they have never gone through..they give us the space to make mistakes.

In her book, Death Makes the News: How the Media Censor and Display the Dead (NYU Press, 2017), Jessica M. Fishman examines how death is presented in the media. Researching how media outlets present images of death over the past 30 years, Fishman explores the controversial practice of picturing the dead. Fishman presents the varying ways the press selects the images they choose to use, the way they make decisions of what images they use, and why. Her research reveals that much of what we think we know about how dead bodies are, or are not, shown in the media is wrong. The tabloid press is less likely to show a dead body, media show dead foreign bodies more often than they show dead American bodies, and the exceptions to the rules the media uses to portray the dead are not often altered. Well researched, with knowledge from editors and photojournalists about the decisions made around images of death, Jessica Fishman’s work gives readers new ways to think about the ways death does, and does not, make the news. Rebekah Buchanan is an Associate Professor of English at Western Illinois University. Her work examines the role of narrative in people’s lives. She researches zines, zine writers and the influence of music subcultures and fandom on writers and narratives.

Her goals are to share her experience and inspire social change.The book is now available and can be purchased from a variety of online locations. https://jessicafishmanauthor.com

The right of return for the Jewish people states that anyone with at least one Jewish grandparent may become a citizen of the State of Israel. The reasoning: this was the criteria by which the Jews were persecuted under the Third Reich. On the other hand, if you want to have an ordained marriage in the State of Israel, the par is set a little higher: your mother must be Jewish. This dissonance leads to an inevitable rift in Israeli society: people who live here as lawful citizens, but are unable to legally marry their partner. Jessica Fishman, author of the new book “Chutzpah and High Heels”, joins Two Nice Jewish Boys to share her story of Aliyah and talk about her devastation at the hands of this little known discrepancy in Israeli law.
