The new episode of Blues is the Truth is up now. Ian McHugh is back at the helm and, as always, the show is supported by the Tuesday night Blues Jam at the Rising Sun in Isleworth. It is one of those weeks where the playlist just seemed to fall into place. You start with a couple of tracks and before long the whole thing takes on a life of its own. There is some proper heavyweight blues in the mix too. Stevie Ray Vaughan turns up in fine form, John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers take things right back to the British blues boom, and there is early Fleetwood Mac reminding everyone just how good they were when the blues was front and centre. This week's show also includes a couple of respectful nods to people who meant a great deal to the music. There is a tribute to Mike Vernon, whose work helped shape the British blues scene, and another to John Hammond, a true keeper of the tradition who left an enormous mark on the blues world. You will also hear the great Freddie King, Albert Collins, Junior Wells and Otis Rush. That alone would make for a decent show, but there is plenty more going on. Selwyn Birchwood brings a modern edge, Duke Robillard is on terrific form as always, and John Hammond appears twice with a couple of tracks that are well worth the space. Elsewhere there is music from Nick Curran, Jordan Officer and Laura Chavez, plus a welcome appearance from Connie Lush. Terry Marshall and Friends keep things moving nicely, the Paul Michael Band are in there again, and you will also hear Mike Vernon and the Mighty Combo, Doc Stenson and the Amazing Hot Shots, Richard Carr, Boogie Beasts, Jerry Portnoy and the Streamliners, and Studebaker John. It is a cracking mix this week. Old school blues, newer sounds, a few surprises along the way. Give it a spin and see what you think.

Detroit is undergoing a once-in-a-generation transformation—one driven by innovation, community leadership, and an urgent demand for a new kind of workforce. As energy and tech sectors accelerate, organizations and employers are racing to prepare Detroit's workforce for jobs that didn't exist a decade ago. Workforce researchers note that tech-enabled roles across industries are growing faster than traditional pathways, raising the stakes for cities working to ensure residents have equitable access to these opportunities.How does Detroit build a workforce that is both future-ready and deeply rooted in community—one that reflects the city's diversity, grit, and entrepreneurial spirit?In this episode of DisruptED, host Ron Stefanski sits down with Per Scholas' Executive Vice President, Ken Walker, and Detroit Managing Director, Laura Chavez, during the PowerUp Detroit workforce conference. Together, they explore the innovations, partnerships, cultural dynamics, and opportunities reshaping tech education and career access in Detroit.Highlights from the Conversation…Detroit's workforce momentum is real: From human-centered workforce strategies to deeper employer collaboration, leaders across the region are co-designing solutions that meet community needs—especially in the energy and tech sectors.Community movements like Black Tech Saturdays are rewriting the narrative: Grassroots innovation proves that when there's no seat at the table, Detroiters build their own—and create pathways for underrepresented talent to enter and lead in tech.Per Scholas is reimagining tech training for the modern learner: With more than 25 career tracks and flexible delivery models, the organization is expanding training access while customizing programs to Detroit's culture, employers, and industry needs.Ken Walker is the Executive Vice President at Per Scholas, where he has been a driving force in the organization's national growth since joining in 2005. Under his leadership, Per Scholas has expanded from a $4 million nonprofit to an $80 million national powerhouse with 24 locations and over two dozen tech training pathways. A leading voice in workforce innovation, Ken specializes in aligning training to emerging technologies, employer demand, and equitable talent development.Laura Chavez is the Managing Director of Per Scholas Detroit, a lifelong educator, community leader, and advocate for equitable workforce development. With a background in bilingual and bicultural education and deep roots in Southwest Detroit, Lara has built a career around empowerment, authenticity, and relationship-driven community engagement. Her work focuses on dismantling barriers for learners, expanding tech access for underrepresented communities, and strengthening Detroit's diverse talent ecosystem.

It focuses on how theracially and linguistically diverse dual-language program constructs ideasabout race and Latinidad, and forms the Latinx group.Prof. Chávez-Moreno posits that the bilingual programadvanced an imagined Spanish as the signature boundary delineating the Latinxracialized group in relation to other racialized groups. She also argues thatbilingual schooling may become a false champion for a future anti-racist,anti-imperialist, decolonial Latinidad if this schooling does not disruptracially inequitable outcomes and encourage Latinxs' critical consciousness.She invites teachers and educators to embrace ambitious teaching about the ambivalenceof race, an approach aimed at enhancing critical consciousness about race.**WE ARE ALSO ON AUDIOAUDIO “Conversations with Calvin; WE the SpecIEs”ANCHOR https://lnkd.in/g4jcUPqSPOTIFY https://lnkd.in/ghuMFeCAPPLE PODCASTSBREAKER https://lnkd.in/g62StzJGOOGLE PODCASTS https://lnkd.in/gpd3XfMPOCKET CASTS https://pca.st/bmjmzaitRADIO PUBLIC https://lnkd.in/gxueFZw

Michigan has a problem with whippets. Brought to the front of the collective mind after that gigantic fire and explosion in Clinton Township - Michigan has passed new laws to begin to deal with the personal dangers of inhaling nitrous oxide, as well as to the community by those who sell them. This is an important issue in the city of Detroit, the Metro Detroit region, and the state. On your Daily Detroit, we unpack it a bit. The dangers.

Laura Chavez Silverman, founder of The Outside Institute, investigates our many options in relating to Nature and the world of plants. Do we go to Nature to take? Do we have something to bring? Can we even “go to Nature” if it is inescapably all around us? What can we do to belong to the land once we give up the illusion of owning it?   References:   The Outside Institute: https://theoutsideinstitute.org/ A simple version of the logos/plants recognition test (courtesy of @decolonialatlas): https://twitter.com/decolonialatlas/status/1141014552152367104/photo/1 Suzanne's Simard: https://suzannesimard.com/ A recipe for a black walnut bitters Old Fashioned: http://www.fouramongstthree.com/blog/2015/1/3/old-fashioned-with-walnut-bitters-anzac-cookies

Both acts make it to the Finals at the Pine Loft in Berlin Ct. on Sunday Oct 20th. The Blues Blast interview this week is with Laura Chavez who is Candye Kane’s lead guitar player. A lot of the interview talks about her time as a contestant at the IBC in Memphis and how important it is to compete in the Challenge because of all of the added exposure you get. As always it’s a great read. http://thebluesblast.com/Archive/BluesBlasts/2013/BluesBlast9_26%AD_13.htm American Blues Scene has an interview with Robert Santelli who is the Executive Director of The Grammy Museum and a lifelong scholar in the blues. Among his many accomplishments are a number of definitive books on the genre, as well as pivotal roles in some of the most celebrated music museums in the world, including the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Experience Music Project in Seattle. In anticipation of Robert’s upcoming speech in Saint Louis for the National Blues Museum, they sat down to discuss his museum work, the influence (and lack of influence) the blues has had on popular music, his writing, and the special things that make music museums truly great. It’s also a great read you can find the link to it in this week’s write up. http://www.americanbluesscene.com/2013/09/robert-santelli/ Also in American Blues Scene this week is an article about the CAll and Response Symposium at the King Biscuit Festival in Helena Ark on the 12th of October. Participating in the symposium are Bobby Rush, Carl Weathersby, Blind Mississippi Morris along with Blues writers and producers discussing the state of Blues music today and how difficult it is to stay relevant. http://www.americanbluesscene.com/2013/09/king-biscuit-blues-festival-presents-3rd-annual-call-and-response-blues-symposium-in-historic-helena-arkansas/ Blues In The Area: 10/3 THURSDAY Chris Ruest & Preston Hubbard w/Mike Law - Cady's Tavern - Chepachet, RI 10/4 FRIDAY Bad Rooster - Friend's Cafe (9pm) - Southington, CT Easy Baby - The Berlin Fair (4-9pm) - Berlin, CT The Walter Lewis Blues Trio - The Lumberyard Pub - Georgetown, CT 10/5 SATURDAY Shemekia Copeland - The Narrows Center for the Arts (8pm) - Fall River, MA Ana Popovic - Black-eyed Sally's (9pm) - Hartford Gina Sicilia - Cafe Nine (8pm) - New Haven, CT Chris Ruest & Preston Hubbard w/Mike Law - Sporty's - Bristol, CT The Dave Keller Band - Theodores' - Springfield, MA Dan Stevens - The Berlin Fair (1:30-3pm) - Berlin, CT The Joe Bluz Blues Review - The Berlin Fair (5-9pm) - Berlin, CT The Cobalt Rhythm Kings - 1st & Summerfield United Methodist Church (8:30pm) - New Haven, CT Benefit for the United Methodist Black College Fund 425 College Street Dan Stevens - Perks & Corks (9pm) - Westerly, RI 10/6 SUNDAY The CT Blues Society's Solo/Duo Challenge - The Pine Loft (5pm) - Berlin, CT week 3 of 3, two contestants advance to finals 10/20 with: Mark Elkins Kris Heaton The Resonators Jackie & Rick Joel Blumert Mark Crofutt John Mayall - Fairfield Theatre's Stage One (7:45pm) - Fairfield, CT The Tom Sanders Band - The Berlin Fair (1:30-5:30pm) - Berlin, CT Dan Stevens - Bill's Seafood (3:30pm) - Westbrook, CT Blues Jam w/Chris Ruest & Preston Hubbard - Cady's Tavern (3-7pm) - Chepachet, RI Blues Jam w/Wildcat O'Halloran - City Sports Grille (4-8pm) - Northampton, MA Black-Eyed Sally’s Weekly Rundown: Wednesday Oct 2 Blues Open Mic hosted by Mike Law Friday Oct 4 Truck Stop Troubadors Saturday Oct 5 Ana Popovic Monday Oct 7 Monday Night Jazz Tuesday Oct 8 Mike Palin’s Other Orchestra I hope to see you out and about this week but if not please continue to support live music wherever you are. subscribe-with-itunes-button
