She outlines the importance of self-love and self-reflection to overcome the judgements of others.You'll learn:Why we don't always leave bad situations, even when our intuition knows the truthHow your inner child's unmet needs can sabotage your chance to growWhy we have to look to ourselves for healingThe importance of self-forgivenessWhy we downplay our intuitionIf you can be your own worst critic, this episode is for you.Sign up to Clear Channels here, enrollment ends TODAY!Listen to How I Deal with Haters (Part 1) hereTrashing: The Dark Side of Sisterhood by Jo Freeman published in Ms. magazine in 1976MOON STUDIO WORKSHOP LINKSClear Channels Workshop.Future Self Workshop.Our Hermit Year.Mystic Vision Workshop.Join the Moon Studio Patreon.Buy the 2025 Many Moons Lunar Planner.Subscribe to our newsletter.Find Sarah on Instagram.
Today I'm talking with Jo Freeman: a founding member of the women's liberation movement in the 1960s, a civil rights campaigner, an attendee to every Democratic party convention since 1964, and a political scientist. She's not the most typical Statecraft guest. But her work on how the two parties work - not just what they believe, but how they operate organizationally - is incredibly insightful. In this conversation, we dig into:* Why do the two parties fight so differently?* What makes someone powerful in each party?* How did the women's movement transform the Democratic Party?* What happened to convention caucuses? Did they stop mattering?* What does it mean when a movement starts "trashing" its own leaders?Reading list:Who You Know Versus Who You Represent: Feminist Influence in the Democratic and Republican PartiesThe Political Culture of the Democratic and Republican PartiesWhy Republican Party Leaders Matter More Than Democratic Ones (by Tanner Greer)Trashing: The Dark Side of SisterhoodThe Tyranny of Structurelessness This is a public episode.

Today we share excerpts from “She's Beautiful When She's Angry,” a documentary filled with stories that still resonate today as women face new challenges around reproductive rights and sexual violence. The documentary tells the stories of the activists of the Women's Liberation Movement that gained traction in the late 1960s and led to social and policy changes that set women on a path towards equality and reproductive justice. It also addresses the intersections of race and gender and the experiences of the Black women who were integral to this movement. The film is about activists, those who inspire, organize, and revolutionize the world by changing the standards and broadening what we think is possible.

Guest Nathan Schneider Panelist Richard Littauer | Leslie Hawthorne Show Notes In this episode of Sustain, host Richard is joined by Leslie Hawthorne, and features a discussion with guest Nathan Schneider, an assistant professor of media studies and the director of the Media Economics Design Lab at the University of Colorado Boulder, about his new book,”Governable Spaces: Democratic Design for Online Life.” The conversation explores the motivations of the book, which stems from Nathan's experiences in running online spaces and his realization of the inadequacies in tools available for practicing democracy in these spaces. Richard, Leslie, and Nathan delve into the historical development of online spaces, the challenges in creating democratic governance online, and the potential impact on global democracy. The discussion also touches on open source sustainability, governance failures and potentials in open-source projects such as Git, and the role of protocols in shaping online communities. Additionally, Nathan argues for diverse forms of governance and shares examples of successes in opensource governance. Press download now to hear more! [00:01:40] Nathan explains the motivation for his book, “Governable Spaces.” [00:05:24] The discussion dives into the concept of the book with Richard questioning the practical existence of such spaces based on the book's definition. Nathan confirms the book focusses on the absence of democratic infrastructures in digital lives and the lack of support for cooperatives online. [00:09:09] Richard relates the discussion on culture and democracy to media archaeology and questions how this relates to open source sustainability. Nathan acknowledges the importance of the topic and brings up the example of Git to discuss absences in open source governance. [00:13:41] Leslie asks Nathan to elaborate on his views regarding the lack of governance and democratic sharing of responsibilities within the structure that have developed, particularly in open source. Nathan responds by identifying two approaches to this issue. He first addresses the cultural aspect, and then the technical and legal aspects. [00:16:44] Leslie further inquires whether Nathan has considered in his book that the lack of governance could be due to the backgrounds of early internet designers, who were not from marginalized or vulnerable populations and thus did not prioritize governance structures. He talks about the colonization metaphor in the early internet's language, specifically the term “homesteading,” and how it reflects a flawed understanding of democracy and governance. [00:18:18] Nathan mentions Jo Freeman's essay, “The Tyranny of Structurelessness,” which warns against the absence of explicit governance leading to the rise of implicit governance by those already privileged. He also emphasizes that despite the dominant structures, there are examples of democratic practices in online spaces, especially among non-dominant identity groups. [00:20:33] Richard questions the robustness of democracy and brings up a point from Nathan's book that raised some questions to him. He also wonders it was difficult for Nathan to use terms that don't hold up under scrutiny for his book, and Nathan acknowledges the complexity of the term “feudalism,” and expresses gratitude for medieval governance structures. [00:24:50] Nathan and Richard discuss the topic of crypto, and Richard appreciates how Nathan's book puts together the chapter on crypto with transformative justice and brings up that the book doesn't go deep into the specifics of internet protocols. Nathan expresses a strong interest in protocols as a means of social organization and elaborates on the significance of crypto and blockchain protocols in breaking away from traditional centralized models. [00:30:30] Leslie asks Nathan about the Fediverse and federated social networking. Nathan shares his positive view on the Fediverse and discusses his experience co-founding a Mastodon server, acknowledging the potential for creating governable spaces while also recognizing the challenges in ensuring democratic governance. [00:32:40] Find out where you can get Nathan's book for free and to purchase. Quotes [00:02:52] “The tools we have are really crappy for practicing democracy.” [00:05:57] “While working on this book, I started realizing how much my interest is in what we don't have, it's in the absence of our digital lives.” Spotlight [00:33:40] Leslie's spotlight is her community devroom co-organizers for FOSDEM'24: Shirley Bailes and Laura Czajkowski. [00:34:04] Richard's spotlight is the Vermont Arts Council. [00:34:32] Nathan's spotlight is a group called the Exit to Community collective.

Guest Courtney Miller | Hongbo Fang Panelists Richard Littauer | Eriol Fox Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! The podcast where we talk about sustaining open source for the long haul. We are super excited to talk to our guests today on the topic of toxicity in open source. Today, we have joining us, Courtney Miller and Hungbo Fang, who are both PhD students at Carnegie Mellon University. We asked them to come on because we were curious about their work, and they came highly recommended by Bogdan Vasilescu. We'll hear more about Courtney's talk and her paper on her award-winning work exploring toxicity in open source communities, and we'll find out the work Hongbo has done focusing on information flow and where people talk about open source. Download this episode now to learn more! [00:02:49] Courtney tells us about the talk she gave at the Linux Open Source Summit on her work exploring toxicity in open source communities. [00:03:55] We find out if there was a data set that was used to find the information. [00:05:08] Hongbo focuses on information flow and where do people talk about open source, and he tells us what his involvement is with this work. [00:06:57] Courtney tells us what she saw within the hundred issues and how she broke them down and tagged them to get to the conclusions she had. [00:08:44] We hear how Courtney used the technical definition of toxicity introduced by Google's Perspective API tool to inform the decisions of what toxicity means. [00:12:01] Eriol wants to know whether Courtney's had thoughts or intentions of looking into the content moderation space to see if there's any similarities between what's happening there. [00:14:29] Richard wonders what we can do to improve the state of toxicity in open source and wonders if she has any future work that can make this better. [00:16:08] Hongbo shares his thoughts about the future and what we can do to solve this from a quantitative angle. [00:17:02] Based on Courtney's work, we find out if she thinks AI has improved, if she has hope, and Hongbo shares his thoughts as well. [00:19:20] Eriol wants to know how community members can help researchers by talking about things that are less referenced in the paper, and how Courtney thinks about tackling some of the harder to read parts of toxicity with new emerging spaces. [00:24:54] We find out if there's a place where open source could have a restorative justice around toxicity and what action is there for the open source community to move from talking about our experiences of toxicity to how we can heal. [00:27:40] Hongbo explains what his work is mainly focused on, how he's holding this space, and suggestions he has for the future on how we can improve information flow. [00:34:31] Richard talks about a paper called, The Tyranny of Structurelessness by Jo Freeman, and wonders if Hongbo has any suggestions for how to help open source projects with information gap issues. [00:39:33] Find out where you can follow Courtney, Hongbo, and their work online. Quotes [00:12:11] "Open source toxicity is not new, it's very old. The long-term effects of this toxicity, especially in open source, is why I was really moved to do this research.” [00:14:56] “If you can identify toxic comments, and deal with them, instead of making the maintainers spend the emotional labor every time dealing with this stuff – [that] can be very helpful.” [00:15:17] “Maintainers are often toxic in their own projects.” [00:15:40] “We have issue templates – what about issue response templates?” [00:25:47] “If a community has leadership that tolerates certain things, it's going to happen. If the community has leadership that does not tolerate certain things, it's not going to happen.” Spotlight [00:41:21] Eriol's spotlight is Digital Safety Snacks by Pen America. [00:41:58] Richard's spotlight is an article he read called, The Opposite of Rape Culture is Nurturance Culture by Nora Samaran. [00:42:40] Hongbo's spotlight is the book, Roads and Bridges: The Unseen Labor Behind Our Digital Infrastructure by Nadia Eghbal. [00:43:32] Courtney's spotlight is the book, Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software by Nadia Eghbal, and the tool, Betty.

In this episode, we open with a brief comment about the horrendous, so-called Freedom Convoy, and what the left needs to do to fight fascism. Then we proceed with the main focus: Mass collective struggle is where we will learn how to become better organizers. Workplace strikes are a crucial opportunity to put our ideas into practice. Now that the 2021 University of Manitoba Faculty of Association(UMFA)Strike has ended, we can reflect and draw some lessons. Listen to Travis, Mads, David and Joe reflect on lessons from strike both from a worker and student organizing perspective. In their discussion they share experiences, challenges, and next steps. Check it out and Happy Organizing!

Growing up as a biracial kid in Northern California, author Lily Anderson, finding books that featured people that were like her were hard to come by. As an author Lily has been able to bring those characters to life in the books that she writes and in her newest young adult novel, The Throwback List, she writes not only about the diversity of people but of experiences as well. We chat about her newest book, musicals, and what it takes to see a book from start to finish. About the Guest: Lily Anderson is the author of The Only Thing Worse Than Me is You; Not Now, Not Ever; and Undead Girl Gang. A former school librarian, she is deeply devoted to Shakespeare, fairy tales, and podcasts. Somewhere in Northern California, she is having strong opinions on musical theater.

As a busy mom of three, a wife to a traveling hubby, and keeping it weird in Austin, Texas, it's safe to say that my life is never boring. In addition to running my coaching business as C'N'C's CEO, I'm a certified coach for a premier virtual fitness and nutrition program helping others feel better while sustaining a healthy lifestyle. My mom and dad are thrilled that I'm putting my Exercise Science degree to good use. Along with my experience training pro athletes, S.W.A.T. members, and a high school football team, I gained 10+ years experience as the Director of Marketing building multiple court reporting companies. Lastly, I am a published writer, Content Coordinator, and Account Executive for a publication by Best Version Media. They even gave me a monthly “How to” column where I teach others how to be more self-sufficient with common household tasks. Every woman should know how their home functions and what to do if something malfunctions, man or no man. With my husband on the road, searching “How To” on the internet has transformed me into a “Mommy MacGyver”. “I don't know how you have the time.” “You're like a Supermom!” These are common things that people say, but the truth is that life hasn't always been easy or pretty. Even with the bumps, I always try to find the humor in everything because laughter is good for the soul and you should never take life too seriously….where's the fun in that? www.chaosncookies.com https://www.instagram.com/heathersteinker https://www.facebook.com/heathersteinker https://linktr.ee/hsteinker https://chaosncookies.com/shop Thanks for listening!

There she reconnects with an old friend, as well as a new one, and decides to tick off items from a checklist that she created in her teens while documenting it all on social media. The story is filled with both fun and poignancy. “Anderson transcends the chick-lit trope of ancient teen rivalries by crafting strong characters, and she also does a good job with the nuances of the women's racial and sexual identities. Scenes with arguments, such as one between Jo and Wren over Jo's priorities, are particularly riveting for showing the truth of both sides. There's a lot to enjoy in this thoughtful story of female friendship.”

Talking about sociology in software development is rare. But that is exactly what happened at a meet-up I went to in Paris in 2019. Fabien Lamarque, software craftsman from Bordeaux, gave a presentation on what sociology can teach us in terms of team dynamics and team structure. Specifically, the work of Pierre Bourdieu, a leading French philosopher and sociologist. In this episode we talk about a number of important aspects facing today's software developers: team structure, flat teams and hierarchy and how télétravail - remote working - has impacted all of that during the pandemic. Here is a list of books and links mentioned in this episode: https://fabien-lamarque.eu/Bourdieu-and-sociology-in-software-development/ - Fabien's Blog post in English on Pierre Bourdieu and here in French https://fabien-lamarque.eu/les-impacts-de-Bourdieu-sur-les-coding-dojo/Jo Freeman's position paper on 'The tyranny of structurelessness' https://www.jofreeman.com/joreen/tyranny.htmCulture and Power: The sociology of Pierre Bourdieu, an introductory book by David SwartzPierre Bourdieu: vie oeuvres concepts (French) Patrice BonnewitzMutual Aid: A Factor in Evolution, by Pëtr KropotkinExtreme Programming Explained, by Kent Beck Support the Show.Thank you for listening and your ongoing support.

In the late 1960s, Jo Freeman published her "Bitch Manifesto." Since then, the debate on reclaiming bitch has moved far and wide. Who gets to reclaim this word and what is power we claim with reclaiming bitch. This episode delves in to the debate, inviting others to weigh in. Sources: Harris, F. C. (2016, March).

Why does feminism seem hellbent on self-destruction these days? Well, it's nothing new... Jo Freeman wrote about trashing in the feminist movement back in the 70s. Today, thanks to online culture, it's ever more visible and pernicious. Rather than bringing women in, too often they feel pushed out. Those who try to make a difference, who end up in leadership roles, who gain a voice in the mainstream are torn down; women who fail to meet standards of purity politics are smeared and ejected from the movement. How can we do better? How can we replace toxicity with productivity? How can we better engage when feeling attacked? And why is this all happening in the first place? I spoke with MK Fain, founder of 4W, an American feminist online publication, and co-founder of Spinster, a feminist social media platform about the challenges she's faced in the feminist movement, both from enemies and "allies."

In this episode, Carson speaks with Professor John Gastil from Penn State University about the history and development of deliberative mini-publics. John is the author of many books and papers on deliberative democracy including Democracy in Small Groups and is currently undertaking research on the Oregon Citizens' Initiative Review and has a book coming out about this research soon. John identifies that the term mini-public has become a term of art and means a randomly selected group with a focused charge, although there is a lot of varieties to how these processes are designed. The core idea of deliberation is ‘weighing’ of evidence, concerns, perspectives before making a decision or recommendation. John sees these type of processes starting with Ned Crosby (see episode 1) and Peter Dienel (see episode 2). With the next major developments being deliberative polls run by James Fishkin (who we will interview in a later episode) the British Columbia’s Citizens’ Assembly where a citizens’ assembly was charged with drafting new legislation the Oregon Citizens’ Initiative Review which he is researching, and finally The Irish Citizens’ Assemblies which have had perhaps the most real-world impact. John suggests that the inter-disciplinary nature of deliberative democracy and the practical nature of the field may be both strengths and weaknesses for the field. Whilst he has an affinity with the practical side of facilitation deliberative processes he sees that his value add is being able to get research grants and write academic articles. Both Carson and John note that facilitators often come from backgrounds where they have developed interpersonal skills particularly around working with groups, for example as educators, within religious groups. He recommends the book Freedom is an Endless Meeting by Francesca Poletta which talks about group processes in social movements. He thinks the processes of deliberative mini-publics have become more structured over time and he sees this as a good thing because structure and process provide protection to all participants. See The Tyranny of Structurelessness by Jo Freeman. John identifies the best facilitators as being humble yet confident good listeners, and flexible. John and Carson agree that having more than one facilitator allows for a range of skills to be made available to the deliberative mini-public as well as a way to build the skills of facilitators new to the deliberative processes. Sometimes co-facilitation is done by splitting the focus of facilitation roles between process and task. John suggests that we should think about both deliberative democracy and democratic deliberation to provide a focus on different aspects of the process. His key conclusion is that deliberative mini-publics work - they demonstrate that all is not lost in democracy today. Music acknowledgement.
