Podcasts about keziah daum

In Spring of 2018, a white Utah teenager named Keziah Daum posted photos of herself and her prom date on Facebook and Twitter. She was wearing a red qi pao (or cheongsam), a traditional Chinese dress popularized in China in the 1920s. Twitter users quickly responded that her decision to wear the dress was an example of cultural appropriation. Others argued that it was simply cultural appreciation. In this episode, seminar participants discuss the way that national and international media reported on this incident and examine the assumptions US commentators make how commentators in the United States make decisions about who is allowed to speak on behalf of whom. We also consider the utility of the concept of cultural appropriation itself.

In this episode, we try to understand what people mean when they say cultural appropriation. This episode inspired by the story of 18 year old Keziah Daum who received backlash after wearing a traditional Chinese dress called a ‘Qipao’ to her high school prom. We were interested in if the backlash was justified or just further attempts of political correctness at play. This topic took us from slavery to diversity and power imbalance. The scholarly team increases as we welcome Ife and Imaree to the podcast. For more information follow the podcast on Instagram @scholarlyconvo

Is motherhood “the dumbest job ever”? Just in time for Mother’s Day, that’s what one New York Times writer is suggesting. We talk about this, along with a new book detailing Hillary Clinton’s campaign hypocrisies, and the trend of members in Congress sleeping in their offices because they can’t afford rent (or so they say) in this week's edition of Problematic Women.Plus, we break down the backlash surrounding Michelle Wolf’s White House Correspondent Dinner performance, and the cultural appropriation police coming after high school student Keziah Daum for daring to wear a Chinese-inspired dress to prom. Watch in the video above, or listen in the podcast below. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

NBC News reported Monday that White House chief of staff John Kelly, increasingly frustrated with the president, called President Trump an “idiot” in one meeting and has tried to portray himself as a bulwark to hold back the president’s chaos. According to eight current and former White House officials, Kelly's comments to aides has eroded morale in the West Wing. Kelly pushed back against the story, calling it “total BS.” Will the chief of staff get the boot? Carol Lee, a national political reporter for NBC News who helped break the story, talks about Kelly's future in the administration. Keziah Daum, an eighteen-year-old student in Utah, bought a Chinese dress to wear to her prom. When she posted a photo of herself in the dress, she was attacked on social media and accused of cultural appropriation. Daum joins Rick and guest co-host Bill Tucker to discuss the whole ordeal.
