We discuss the severe underfunding of DC's affordable housing programs and the need for a new approach.

Liberalism is in trouble. As a set of ideas, it has lost much of its historical authority in guiding public policy and personal behaviour. In this post-liberal climate, Russell Blackford asks whether liberalism is truly over. How We Became Post-Liberal: The Rise and Fall of Toleration (Bloomsbury, 2023) examines how Western liberal democracies became nations where traditional liberal principles of toleration (religious and otherwise), individual liberty and freedom of speech are frequently dismissed as outdated or twisted to support conservative policies. Blackford traces the lineage of liberalism from problems of toleration that emerged when Christianity triumphed in the late centuries of classical antiquity, with comparison to non-Western civilizations. The political and philosophical story culminates in the recent development – over the past 30 to 50 years – of post-liberal ideologies in the West. At each stage, Blackford discusses arguments for and against liberal principles, identifying why no argument to date has been totally successful in convincing opponents, while maintaining that liberalism's ideas and language are still worth saving. From campus wars over academic freedom to the Charlie Hebdo attack and the murder of Samuel Paty, this is an indispensable guide for anyone wanting to understand the why, what and how of the post-liberal world. Russell Blackford is a philosopher, legal scholar, literary critic based at the University of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia. He is the author of Freedom of Religion and the Secular State (2012), Humanity Enhanced (2014), The Mystery of Moral Authority (2016), and Science Fiction and the Moral Imagination (2017). In 2014, he was inducted as a Laureate of the International Academy of Humanism. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube channel. Twitter.

Susanna Mattiangeli"La Costituzione nelle parole"La storia di come è stata scritta la Costituzione italianaIllustrazioni di Giovanni GastaldiEdizioni Lapiswww.edizionilapis.itLa nostra Costituzione è uno dei testi giuridici più belli del mondo. Non è frutto di una sola mente geniale: è un gigantesco esempio di scrittura collettiva.  Ma la Costituzione italiana chi l'ha scritta? Come è stata scritta? Da quante persone? La pensavano tutti allo stesso modo? No? Come hanno fatto a mettersi d'accordo? Chi ha scelto le parole esatte? C'erano anche delle donne? Quanti tentativi ci sono voluti prima di arrivare alla stesura definitiva?Per arrivare a un testo condiviso così preciso e limpido è stato necessario un processo complesso: 556 menti hanno collaborato affinché i 12 principi fondamentali della Costituzione diventassero le colonne portanti della neonata Repubblica. Un compito che ha portato a discussioni appassionanti, spesso accese, in cui si sono confrontati modi diversi di vedere il mondo.Questo libro, che nasce da un attento studio degli atti parlamentari del tempo, non vuole limitarsi a riassumere il significato dei 12 principi fondamentali della Costituzione. In maniera agile e coinvolgente, ci fa scoprire il dibattito dell'Assemblea Costituente «in presa diretta», permettendoci di vedere e sentire i volti e le voci della Costituente. Un taglio innovativo, che ci restituisce il racconto live dell'esperienza della scrittura di quei principi da parte dell'Assemblea e il contributo dei Costituenti.  La struttura grafica e le illustrazioni partecipano a costruire il senso del discorso e lo ampliano. Rendono possibile comprendere le ragioni dell'una o dell'altra componente politica, anche per chi non ha ancora studiato il periodo storico del dopoguerra.Susanna MattiangeliÈ nata e vive a Roma. Scrive e traduce storie brevi e lunghe per molte case editrici. I suoi libri sono stati tradotti in una ventina di Paesi. Oltre a questo, compone cruciverba, gioca con le parole e organizza laboratori collaborando con scuole, biblioteche e librerie. Nel 2018 ha vinto il Premio Andersen come Miglior scrittrice. È stata nominata Italian Children's Laureate per il biennio 2023/2024.Giovanni GastaldiÈ un giovane illustratore, grafico e fumettista piemontese.

In this final episode of the three-part series with Doug and Stacee, Stacee continues sharing about her in-patient eating disorder treatment. She emphasizes how important it was for her to make the choice to stay when many in the program left, and how she didn't want to leave a legacy of not fighting. Stacee talks about the importance of moment-by-moment surrender.  Doug and Stacee also reveal that when Stacee was at Laureate (https://www.saintfrancis.com/laureate), she was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD).

Stacee also founded Speak Out Loud, a non-profit organization created to bring hope and encouragement into the silence, isolation, and despair created by mental illness.

Hero or Villain? These archetypal characters are the stock-in-trade of the fantasy genre, and so you’ll definitely enjoy this newest poetry anthology compiled by Ana Sampson, an experienced curator of poetry collections, and illustrated by the instantly recognizable pencil of Chris Riddell, multi-award-winning illustrator and former UK Children's Laureate.   Today on Mythmakers, in conversation with Julia Golding, Ana and Chris journey through history and genres, unearthing the gems. They reflect on the poems that inspired them as children, the role of compendiums in nurturing the artistic imagination, and why different approaches are often used to tell the same tale. They also explore the influence of politics on the anthology—and vice versa, and so much more. And if that wasn’t enough, Chris treats us to a live dragon sketch while several poems are read aloud—making this a truly unmissable episode!   Their book, Heroes and Villains: Poems about Legends (Macmillan), is available for purchase now. Credits for the poems read in full are: 'Nan Hardwicke Turns into a Hare' by Wendy Pratt, 'St Margaret of Antioch Speaks' by Jan Dean, 'If...' by James Carter, and 'The Dragons are Hiding' by Brian Moses.   For more information on the Oxford Centre for Fantasy, our writing courses, and to check out our awesome social media content visit: Website: https://centre4fantasy.com/website Instagram: https://centre4fantasy.com/Instagram Facebook: https://centre4fantasy.com/Facebook TikTok: https://centre4fantasy.com/tiktok   0:10 Welcome to Mythmakers 1:32 Childhood Poems That Shaped Us 5:27 The Lady of Shalott and Lockdown 10:15 The Role of Poetry Anthologies 12:05 Creating the Heroes and Villains Anthology 16:40 Exploring Heroes and Villains Through Poetry 20:2Research Gems in Poetry 36:19 Creative Tips for Aspiring Writers 39:04 Contemporary Issues in Fantasy 43:01 Collaborating with Publishers 46:56 The Intersection of Politics and Fantasy 52:46 Closing Thoughts and Inspiration
