Plus de 50 exploitants viticoles français ont fait le déplacement cette semaine à la foire aux vins de Chengdu, dans le sud-ouest de la Chine. Un retour en force des bouteilles tricolores, après l'effondrement des ventes et des prix sur le marché chinois De notre correspondant de retour de Chengdu,C'est l'un des plus grands pavillons du hall réservé aux vins étrangers de la foire de Chengdu. Pour le 60e anniversaire des relations France-Chine, les professionnels français du secteur sont venus groupés dans la capitale de la province du Sichuan. Tous les terroirs et la plupart des appellations sont représentés sous le bleu, blanc et rouge des stands labélisés « goût de France », au troisième étage du plus grand salon « épicerie et alcool » de Chine.  Baisse de la consommation  Après le passage à vide des années Covid, l'union fait la force dans un contexte difficile. Car si la foire de Chengdu célèbre son 110e anniversaire cette année, les allées sont loin d'être pleines et l'esprit n'est pas vraiment à la fête. Comme ailleurs, le vin a moins la côte en Chine. Les Chinois, notamment parmi les plus jeunes, se sont rabattus sur d'autres produits jugés plus festifs. On assiste également au grand retour du bajiu. Les producteurs de cet alcool traditionnel chinois à base de sorgho sont parvenus à rajeunir leur clientèle en quelques années, à coup de campagnes publicitaires audacieuses. Certains allant jusqu'à proposer des « crèmes glacées à l'eau-de-vie », interdites aux mineurs.Plus généralement, la 110e foire de l'alimentation et des alcools est marquée par le ralentissement de l'économie, lié à la crise immobilière qui frappe le pays, mais aussi à une consommation des ménages qui ne s'est toujours pas relevée de la pandémie. Après l'effondrement du marché, les ventes reprennent doucement, sourit Laurent Dubois qui connaît bien ses clients. « Les meilleures années on faisait 400 000 bouteilles par an sur la Chine, aujourd'hui on est tombé à 150 000 », affirme le propriétaire du Château des Bertrand. « J'ai surtout deux gros clients qui marchent bien, mais sinon beaucoup nous disent qu'ils ont du stock. Ils n'ont rien vendu pendant trois ans, ils ont accumulé un peu de dettes. Donc c'est en train de redémarrer, mais ça prend un peu de temps. »Outre la conjoncture, il y a aussi des changements structurels dans la consommation : « le marché chinois s'est vraiment effondré pendant trois ans et c'est le vin rouge qui régresse le plus. La jeune génération est davantage portée sur la bière ou les cocktails. Pour pouvoir séduire cette nouvelle clientèle, la nouvelle tendance se sont des vins sans alcool ou à faible teneur en alcool autour de 8 ou 9° », poursuit celui qui a amené son côtes de Blaye pour la première fois à Hongkong il y a près de deux décennies.  Ventes sur TikTok L'intelligence c'est l'adaptation. Après la folie autour des étiquettes bling-bling sur les bouteilles dans les années 2000, c'est le contenu qui doit évoluer et s'adapter aux goûts chinois. Avec des vins plus légers, plus fruités, plus sucrés aussi : « ma cible, ce sont les femmes chinoises », lance Nicolas Billot-Grima ! Lui aussi n'est pas un nouveau sur ce terrain. En 35 ans de Chine, ce propriétaire bordelais et patron du domaine Stone & Moon dans la province chinoise du Ningxia a vu les goûts évoluer ainsi que certaines pratiques. Avec la lutte anticorruption, la tradition des bouteilles offertes dans les « unités de travail » est en voie de disparition. « On boit moins de vin, car avant 50 % de la consommation c'était des cadeaux », précise ce pionnier de la vigne chinoise. « Avec la politique, la pratique a été réduite. En tous cas, que ce soit pour les vins français ou les vins chinois, la clientèle est surtout féminine aujourd'hui. » Une clientèle féminine que certains vignerons ont découvert dans le quartier chic et branché de Taikoo Li au centre de Chengdu, pendant les quatre jours « OFF » qui précédent la foire. Après les « afternoon tea », les « apéros vin et gâteaux ». Les femmes sont nombreuses également sur les dégustations du salon. Des clientes, mais aussi de plus en plus de distributeurs femmes comme « Faguo Si Jie », « la quatrième sœur française ». C'est le pseudo que s'est choisi cette Shanghaienne pour vendre des vins français en ligne. « J'ai un compte Douyin, le TikTok chinois, explique-t-elle. J'ai un contact direct avec mes clients ce qui fait que je n'ai pas eu à subir de baisses des commandes. Je vends essentiellement du bordeaux AOC et des bordeaux supérieurs. J'ai vécu à Bordeaux et mes demi-millions de followers savent que Bordeaux est la ville du vin par excellence. » À écouter aussi«Le vin en Chine est vécu comme un produit de luxe, mais il est déconnecté du terroir»Arrachages et stocks  Les ventes directes aux consommateurs se portent plutôt bien, surtout quand on a 500 000 abonnés. Pour le reste, c'est la crise malgré les incantations. « 2024, année de la promotion de la consommation », dit le slogan affiché à l'entrée de l'évènement. Autant mouliner dans le vide, sachant que pour l'instant, les foyers chinois continuent de s'accrocher à leur montagne d'épargne accumulée pendant la pandémie.En France, on arrache des vignes et en Chine on fait des stocks, résume un exposant. Un phénomène vite compris par Victor Mercadier, dont les bouteilles « vinpressionnistes » portent des étiquettes avec les toiles de grands peintres. C'est la première fois en Chine pour cet exploitant installé dans le Languedoc et issu de la 4e génération d'une famille de viticulteurs. « J'essaie d'exprimer le profil organoleptique du vin à travers l'expression de la peinture », répond-t-il aux visiteurs intéressés par les vins du stand Occitanie, région présente là aussi en force sur le salon cette année. « Le marché chinois est déprimé », confie aussi le nouveau venu qui a pris la mesure des difficultés avant d'arriver.« Il y a une contraction de la consommation comme dans de nombreux pays d'Asie. Il y a aussi des problèmes de stock. Certains distributeurs ont accumulé des stocks très importants et il y a eu le Covid derrière, donc ils se sont retrouvés avec beaucoup de bouteilles sur les bras. À un moment donné, il faut les sortir ! Il n'y a pas de magie, il faut casser les prix ! »Avec ses belles étiquettes et de courtes vidéos en costumes tournées par les élèves de l'école cinéma de Montpellier sur le thème là encore de la peinture, Victor Mercadier espère attirer les importateurs chinois autour d'un concept mêlant l'œnologie à la culture. Il projette aussi d'inviter ses futurs clients dans le domaine familial en France. La France a une identité viticole très forte. C'est cela aussi que recherchent les Chinois, même si une partie de la clientèle s'est repliée sur les vins du Nouveau Monde d'accès moins compliqué. « On aime aller chercher les nouveaux consommateurs, là où on ne nous attend pas forcément », indique Mathias Icard, représentant l'AOC Bordeaux entre-deux-mer. Sur son stand, des vins blancs frappés d'un grand smiley. « Le produit est sorti il y a trois ans en France, on voulait rendre le vin français plus simple et plus accessible. On va aussi essayer d'adapter notre gamme au public chinois en cherchant beaucoup plus de gourmandise, de rondeur, de sucrosité. »   Professionnalisation du marché La crise que traverse le secteur est l'occasion de se renouveler, disent ces vignerons passionnés. « Nous n'avons pas arrêté de travailler avec nos clients chinois pendant le Covid », tient à rappeler Jean-François Chabod. « Il faut être fier de nos origines françaises », poursuit le directeur export de la maison Jean Loron basée en Sud-Bourgogne. « La bonne nouvelle c'est que le marché chinois continue de se professionnaliser et on a une montée en gamme dans la qualité recherchée. Il faut se battre sur les appellations quel que soit les régions et insister sur la typicité française, dit encore celui qui est revenu trois fois en Chine depuis la réouverture des frontières du pays. » La Chine restant « une priorité pour les producteurs français, même si on est plus dans la configuration d'il y a quelques années ». Sous-entendu, l'eldorado chinois n'est plus. Mais l'appétit pour les bouteilles de qualité devrait revenir.Même optimisme trois stands plus loin, chez le Finlandais-Bordelais du Château Puybarbe. « Si je compare à ma dernière visite ici en novembre, l'ambiance est plus positive je trouve », affirme Riku Väänänen dans un éclat de rire. « Lorsqu'une récession arrive, les consommateurs achètent moins, le détaillant vide son inventaire, puis l'importateur réduit ses commandes. Tout cela fait partie des cycles, et maintenant j'ai l'impression que commencer le réapprovisionnement des stocks. »        Préférence pour les bouteilles lourdes « L'entrée de gamme et le très haut de gamme fonctionnent, mais le milieu de gamme a fortement ralenti et il faut sans cesse s'adapter », explique Cyrille Sastre du château Guillemin-la-Gaffelière, grand cru Saint-Émilion sur le salon. « C'est très compliqué, il faut s'adapter au marché chinois qui change tous les six mois. Le packaging, les étiquettes plus dynamiques », ajoute-t-il en présentant une bouteille « l'amour toujours » avec un dessin de french cancan tricolore.Et puis il y a aussi le goût plus sucré ou encore le poids des bouteilles : « Les Chinois préfèrent les bouteilles lourdes, c'est pour eux un gage de qualité. Celle-ci par exemple en forme conique pèse 650 grammes. »Un effort d'emballage et de marketing indispensable, mais qu'il faut aussi relativiser juge le voisin de stand, Riku Väänänen : « Nous ne sommes pas Martini ou Spritz qui investissent 20 % de leurs revenus dans la publicité. Nous sommes de simples viticulteurs qui essayent de faire leur métier au mieux. » La plupart des exposants ont confiance dans un retour prochain de la demande chinoise, pour l'instant très en retenue. Après tout, il y a de la marge.« En Chine on ne consomme que 1,2 litre par habitant, contre 47 litres en France, ajoute Nicolas Billot-Grima. Il faut que ce pays continent passe de 1,2 à 3 litres. Quand on arrivera à cela, la planète vin sera heureuse. » En attendant le bonheur, la fête s'achève à la foire de Chengdu. Dans les allées du hall 12, les plus enthousiastes et probablement un chouia éméché célèbrent le retour des bonnes bouteilles à leur manière. « Oh viens, on perd la tête ce soir, on met des soleils dans nos yeux », fredonne l'un des visiteurs, en hochant du bonnet sur la musique qui jaillit de son smartphone. La passion du vin rime ici visiblement avec le plaisir presque gourmand de prononcer des mots français, en l'occurrence les paroles du tube du chanteur Amir.Avant la fermeture des portes, les groupes de visiteurs âgés entament eux aussi un dernier tour des stands. Une tournée au pas de course, le sport consistant à récupérer un maximum d'objets de promotion des marques représentées. Sacs, tabliers de cuisine et tee-shirts sont engloutis en moins de deux dans des cabas XXL prévus pour cette chasse aux goodies. Et au fait, c'est quoi votre vin préféré ? « J'aime les régions viticoles uniques et de niche avec un goût original. L'équilibre entre acidité et douceur est important pour moi, et je privilégie les arômes fruités intenses », assure une visiteuse peu contrariante, visiblement très heureuse de sa dégustation avec son compagnon, tout aussi joyeux mais moins en capacité de répondre. Peu importe le flacon pourvu qu'on ait l'ivresse, avec modération tout de même.   À écouter aussiChine : sur la route des vins du Ningxia

This episode is co-hosted by Michelle's son, Cody. As Michelle shares, "If you want to know who I am, Cody has been with me through it all." According to Cody, growing up, "my classmates and teachers would pull me aside and say, 'we know who your Mom is,' but for me, she was just my Mom." Michelle was born 6 years before Title IX, and never got to watch women compete growing up. Her hero was Super Bowl champ, Mean Joe Greene, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle. She didn't have a professional predecessor, so she became the Mean Joe Green – and more – of women's soccer. Legendary USA coach Tony DiCicco described her as “the best woman that has ever played.” She played on the first USWNT (the 1985 team!), won the first Women's World Cup and Golden Boot (‘91), was the first women's player to gain global fame, the first player to sign a shoe deal, and was named FIFA Player of the Century ('00). Throughout it all, Michelle's journey has been characterized by her unbridled love of the game, an unwillingness to deal with BS (she always keeps it real and calls a spade a spade), and a prioritization of her family and teammates. In fact, this ENTIRE 1985 series was her idea, as she wanted to give credit to her teammates for the foundational role they have played in the USWNT. In Michelle's story she shares about her ups and downs, her battles with U.S. Soccer, and her life today with son Cody on the farm. We hear from Anson Dorrance (Women's Soccer Coach, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill & Former Coach, USWNT), Jill Ellis (President, San Diego Wave & Former Coach, USWNT), Lesle Gallimore (GM, Seattle Reign FC & Michelle's Former USWNT Pool Teammate), and Heather O'Reilly (USWNT and TST teammates).

It's been a few months since the World Cup, but we committed to telling the stories of the entire first USWNT, so we tracked down one of the two outstanding players. Here she is! Tara Buckley O'Sullivan, grew up doing everything with her twin sister, Moira. The duo would go to their older brother's soccer games, and then their younger brother's games. When Tara and Moira were watching younger brother, Danny play, his coach asked Mrs. Buckley, "why don't you dress your girls up like cheerleaders and they can cheer for their younger brother?" Tara's response? "Heck no! We wanna play!" So Mrs. Buckley stepped up and became their coach. She didn't really know soccer, but she knew playing was important to the girls, so she made sure they could. Fast forward and Tara became UConn's first 4x All-American in women's soccer. Throughout it all, she describes her teams as "in it for the love of the game," a love she imparted to her children in whatever sports they chose to pursue be it lacrosse, taekwondo, or more recently golf. Since retiring from soccer, Tara credits her family as being her rock... and the feeling is mutual as we hear from husband Mike, son Timothy, and daughter, Caitlin.

Yes, it's been a few months since the World Cup, but we committed to telling the stories of the entire first USWNT, so we tracked down one of the two outstanding players. Here she is! Sharon was the first woman to be named U.S. Soccer Player of the Year and according to Michelle Akers, she's the ultimate badass. "You showed up at the game on a motorcycle and picture me, I'm just sitting on the ground, just happy to be there and totally intimidated, but you, Sharon show up on this motorcycle, and you're Joan Jett...In my mind, when you were on that US team, there was no one better." How Sharon got there isn't a traditional story either (not that there even was a path to the USWNT because it didn't exist). Sharon was first introduced to soccer because "Mom wanted me out of the house" once she picked up a habit of doing things with her feet. Sharon had just watched a TV program on a woman born without arms; the woman was sitting on a stool threading a needle with her toes, and given that Sharon always wanted to be prepared, she immediately started learning how to do things with her feet. "Stuff happens to people" and I "wanted to be prepared if I were to lose my arms." To her Mom's chagrin, Sharon started using her feet to open doorknobs and doing all housework. Her Mom soon thereafter decided Sharon's feet would be better used playing soccer. Since playing, Sharon has had jobs ranging from carpenter to travel agent and coach, and she just completed illustrating a brand new children's book: The Other Side Of Nowhere: A Jack and Sabrina Adventure (link to purchase below). When asked why it's important people know the stories of the 1985 USWNT she shares, "you always have to have try and to push the limits because there's always going to be somebody somewhere that's going to try to keep you from doing what you want to do. If you want to, you want a better place in the world, you got to do a little bit more. Aim high and go."

Most scholars of popular music use songs, artists, and clubs as the key texts and sites in their exploration of the social, cultural, political, and economic effects of music. Laurent Dubois‘ new book looks at the history of an instrument, the banjo, to help us better understand American history and culture. Dubois also helps readers understand the banjo as part of an Afro-Atlantic musical heritage. In The Banjo: Americas African Instrument (Harvard University Press, 2015), Dubois examines how the banjo came into existence in the Americas and what it reveals about debates about American culture. Dubois book starts in Africa with a wide range of instruments that shaped the banjo. He then follows these instruments as they cross the Atlantic in the Middle Passage, winding up in the Caribbean and in North America. Sifting through travelers accounts and documents in archives, Dubois shows how the banjo brought together African peoples in the Americas, creating a familiar but new instrument and sound. He describes the banjo as the product of parallel development in which many enslaved musicians deployed similar instrument-making strategies to create what we now know as the banjo. The story, however, does not stop there. The banjo came to represent authentic Africa American and American culture and became a key symbol in abolitionist rhetoric and minstrelsy. As a result, the banjo was not simply an instrument but a powerful marker of identity within American culture. Dubois traces how the banjo played a significant role in jazz, country, bluegrass, and folk music, symbolizing a diverse set of values and politics. From the minstrel Joel Walker Sweeney to the political activist Pete Seeger, the history of the banjo is the history of American popular culture. Laurent Dubois is Marcello Lotti Professor of Romance Studies and History at Duke University. He is also the author of Avengers of the New World: The Story of the Haitian Revolution and Haiti: The Aftershocks of History. More information about his work on the banjo can be found at Banjology and Musical Passage. Richard Schur, Professor of English at Drury University, is the host for this podcast.

Kim Crabbe was the first African-American to roster on the USWNT. She was on the 1986 team, but given that we've been telling the stories of the original USWNT trailblazers, Kim needed to be celebrated. According to longtime friend and soccer leader, Samuel Okpodu, Kim is the "Cinderella of soccer...Today everybody's enjoying it, but nobody remembers how it all started. Kim started it all" at a time when black girls didn't really play soccer. According to sister, Kacey, while their Mom originally wanted them to play more "girly girl sports," soccer was what the siblings were into, so "Kim led the way" and Mom was incredibly supportive. And while Kim tore it up on the field (first for George Mason University and then the USWNT), she's never hung up her cleats because for her, the game is a means to serve. As the Outreach Program Director, Wilmington Hammerheads Youth Football Club and more recently Founder and CEO of her nonprofit, Outreach for Cape Fear, Kim has used soccer to support thousands of youth. Her nonprofit bridges the gap for disadvantaged and at-risk youth in Southeastern North Carolina through soccer and mentorship. As Kim shares, "Soccer has been my tool for reaching people and my overarching calling is service." This rings true to sister, Kacey, who shares, "our mother raised us with great integrity in finding your sense of purpose, and then passing that on to others." Kim was inducted into the Virginia-DC Hall of Fame (2016), received the Black Soccer Coaches Advocacy Group Award of Excellence (2018), Centennial NAACP Youth Services Award (2019), and the Youth Coach of the Year Award (2021). Most recently in 2022, U.S. Soccer established an award in her name: The Kim Crabbe Game Changers Award celebrating diversity, inclusion, and belonging within the soccer community. Contributing guests include Kacey Crabbe Jefferson (Kim's sister), Laurie Curry (Kim's best friend), Richard White (Kim's Coach growing up), Wilbert Martinez (Coach Kim's soccer player), Jazmine Crabbe-Harris (Kim's daughter), Samuel Okpodu (longtime friend and soccer leader), Sully Hamid (longtime friend), and Lisa Pittaro (George Mason and USWNT teammate).

Pam was working in the credit department of JCPenney when she got a call from The Washington Post asking her about making the first U.S. Women's National Team -- she hadn't heard from U.S. Soccer yet, so she wasn't sure what was happening. The Post had the scoop -- she was on the team. The first USWNT. Flash forward and though she's no longer a professional player, she's held onto her competitive spirit. Over the years, she's hiked the Appalachian Trail. 3 TIMES. She jumped into coaching young girls, always emphasizing "playing for the love of the game." She adventures in a camper van and runs competitively in road races, a love that her son, Nick shares (he's an ultra marathoner). Despite all of the incredible accolades and adventures Pam has wracked up, she cites her marriage with husband, Glenn (her #1 fan) and their two sons as what she's most proud of. "That's what I lead with," she says, often not sharing the USWNT part of her life with newer friends. Fear not -- Glenn makes sure everyone knows... And he's been with Pam every step of the way. Glenn recalls hearing Pam's name being read off every morning in school assembly because "she was so good at every sport." They finally met in P.E. class and the rest is history. When asked why the world needs to hear Pam and her teammates' stories, Glenn offers, "It's so important to always think back about the people that were the first." Pam was one of those pioneers.

*Content Warning: This episode includes stories of sexual abuse. This production contains material of a highly sensitive nature including stories of sexual grooming and manipulation that may be triggering. Resources provided below.* Cindy remembers going to her brothers' soccer games to watch. "They didn't have girls soccer then, and I was dying to play... I remember standing on the sidelines thinking, 'Oh, well, maybe somebody will get hurt and they won't have enough players and the coach will look over and say, you. Girl. You look like you could play. Do you want to join?'" That never happened. But Title IX did, and then there was a girls team. Cindy immediately signed up. And from the start, soccer was clearly Cindy's game, as sister, Valerie describes Cindy as the "sporty tomboy." While Cindy went on to break countless records and play on the first USWNT, her story isn't only one of success. Her story is also one of suffering, warning, and solidarity. Cindy's youth soccer coach sexually abused her. When asked if she's comfortable sharing, she thoughtfully replies, "Of course it's uncomfortable, but I feel it's really important to share because I think that's another epidemic: sexual abuse of female athletes." In this episode, Cindy shares what she wants the world to hear. Contributing experts include Amy Carnell (Cindy''s friend and survivor, sexual abuse) and Valerie (Cindy's sister).

While Kathy (or Ridgey as she was called) had older sisters, she grew up playing with the boys, and doing so in what SHE wanted to wear. Just as Kathy started public elementary school, the rules changed to allow girls to wear pants (Kathy's older sisters had been required to wear dresses or skirts). As Kathy shares, Mom "tried to get me in dresses on picture day, and I would sneak out my brother's hand me downs." Michelle can relate... By fourth grade, Kathy was faster than all of the kids in her school. She "always had speed on her side." She cites the "old man on the bicycle" as one of the most influential people on her game sharing, "He was just this old soccer guy and because there was no soccer anywhere, and the kids were playing, he gave me a couple of pointers on how to do one on ones." And that changed everything. To the "old man," wherever you are, thank you for coaching and inspiring one of the legends of the first USWNT. We hear from soccer teammate Diana Inch, who played with Kathy for years and against Michelle, so was along for the "rollercoaster of soccer." Flash forward to today, and Kathy is the Assistant Director, Innovation and Performance in the Washington State Office of the Governor. She explains what that means but essentially, she holds state agencies accountable for "moving towards equitable solutions." Takeaway: Kathy hasn't only broken barriers in soccer, but also in the statehouse.

Nobody in Ann's family played soccer, so at 12, she went to the town firehouse to sign herself up -- she strategically jotted down "goalie" because she thought it increased her odds of making the team. Flash forward to UVA, and Ann is playing field hockey to help with the costs, yet she returned home on weekends without games to play soccer. UVA didn't have a women's soccer team at the time. After making the first USWNT in 1985, Ann became an engineer, partially because of the work-life balance, so she could spend evenings playing soccer and coaching. By now, she's coached the game at every level possible and her players and daughters have the stories to prove it. We hear from her former player, Anna, daughters, Kim and Kelly, and friends Helen and Matt, all who share their love for Ann...and a few funny stories about her climbing trees, be it to get a better view of a soccer match or just waiting for a daughter after practice.

Kim Wyant is used to being the first. She recorded the first USWNT goalkeeper win, the first shutout, the first anterior ACL injury (was the first goalie to be replaced by a field player, shoutout Lori Henry), was one of the first female BMX riders, and as of eight years ago (in 2015) became the only female head coach of an NCAA men's soccer team (things have changed as we'll hear...) Needless to say, Kim is a Flame Bearer in so many ways. Today we sit down with Kim to discuss her journey, and Michelle reflects on joining Kim at the University of Central Florida. "Kim, seeing you as a player was the first time I saw a female flying and getting into the upper 90s," Michelle shares. Kim reflects on how the game has changed, "Women's soccer back then was literally a soccer desert." Daughters, Danielle and Alex share what their Mom's career means to them.

Emily grew up as #7 of 8 kids so she always had someone to play with...and she played every sport possible, particularly enjoying team sports. Older sister, Aimee describes Emily's "quiet strength" and "natural leadership" at a young age. Coach Mike Ryan called Emily a "maverick" because she tucked in her shirt sleeves, and wore her soccer socks down. "Mike was considering not taking us because he considered us mavericks" she shares, speaking of herself and co-host Michelle Akers for the 1985 Cupa Mundialito. In the end, it's a good thing that Coach Ryan did, as Emily scored and assisted the first two goals for the team. When Emily talks about her career, she says, "we just wanted to play and I was pretty darn focused." Flash forward to today and shares how the winning culture and record has helped the USWNT be able to successfully push for wins off the field: "Winning begets winning." In this episode, Emily plugs Marshall Harner's (her son) musical talent.

Margaret (or as she goes by in soccer, Tucka) grew up in Palo Alto, California, where there were three teams for players ages 10-16. Tucka made the All Star team as a 10 year old, and she didn't stop there... She shares about her time at Cal (currently tied with Alex Morgan at #3 for most goals scored), moving abroad to Germany and getting a job at a shoe heeling company, and the realities of pro life: "numbers were spray painted on the hotel doors." But according to Tucka, they "loved it all." And Tucka's trailblazing didn't stop there. She went on to be employee #81 at Google, becoming one of the first ad salespeople and subsequently a key member of the YouTube and Google Fiber teams. Contributing expert, Jair Fory, Tucka's coach is interviewed in this episode.

When Lori Henry talks about her six year run on the USWNT, she talks about the "little moments along the way," the moments she says that changed her life. She describes making the first team, being the last name called and not hearing it, but having her teammates jump on her in a pig pile. Even the way Lori introduced herself to us was full of humility, "Lori Henry, defender on the '85 original team and made it to the World Cup in '91. Oh, and the captain." Getting there was quite the run as well. Hilariously enough, after decades of facing off against each other growing up, when Lori and Michelle Akers both made the first USWNT in 1985, co-host Akers says she was so relieved to finally being on the same team after growing up having to face off against Lori: "I got so tired of you killing us every time. I never won a high school game against her." The feeling was mutual with Lori responding, "My reaction was 'Thank god' as she had been beating the shit out of me on all these other teams. I was so happy when we had games as the USA because I got to watch her beat the shit out of other people besides me." After soccer, Lori became a coach and then inspired by her own high school P.E. teacher, became a P.E. teacher herself. And so many of her colleagues wanted to talk to us, so we obviously included them all. They describe Lori as a "confidant", "work wife" and the "humblest person I've ever known." Contributing experts include Lori's school colleagues, Nancy, Bill and Mindy.

Linda Gancitano was the first girl on her high school boy's soccer team, so she got to play alongside her younger brother, Nick. According to Nick, even at an early age, Linda "never took any guff from anyone" and would slide tackle the biggest male forwards. Flash forward to University of Central Florida (UCF) and Linda was a veteran on the team when Michelle Akers joined -- ironically, the entire time, Michelle thought she was going to get cut. Linda shares that the team had an attitude of "do something or get out of here. Basically, you got to pull your own weight." And that she did, and more... In this episode Linda shares about her time on the USWNT, and we hear from one of her students, Kayla, as Linda became a Happiness Studies teacher and educator as well as Founder, How Low Can You Go Challenge (initiative empowering youth to reduce their school's carbon footprint through reduced energy, water & food waste). When asked what she wants to say to her teammates, Linda gushes, "I am so proud of us and of every single team from then on...whether we won or we didn't...it's just that the tradition of the United States Women's National Team is absolutely incredible."

Stacey Enos is one of the three original University of North Carolina (UNC) Tar Heels to blaze the trail to the USWNT. Stacey was actually the FIRST Tar Heel to earn a cap for the USWNT, but Stacey was used to being the first, or the only one doing something. "I had to play with the boys. I couldn't be afraid. When you got knocked down, I had to pick myself back up," she says. Stacey was the '85er responsible for the recent reunion of the 1985 team, the first reunion since the team played together 38 years ago. As Stacey shares, she wanted to honor her teammates who until this point have largely been unrecognized. No more. As Stacey shares, "the history of US Women's Soccer started with us." And Stacey's fearless trailblazing didn't stop there even though she admits that after college she "felt a little lost" as "there wasn't really a pathway" to get back onto the national team after graduation. So, she became a coach (an infamous one beloved by all), a real estate agent, and most recently partial owner and coach of Asheville City Soccer Club. According to Stacey, she wants her players to be "treated with equity and fairness...put out a quality product in and give these players a chance to succeed." She concludes, that she wants them "to know what respect looks like" even if she didn't have it herself. This episode is cohosted with Michelle Akers. Contributing experts include Stacey's wife, Annie, and son, Gabrielle. Thank you to Stacey and the Asheville City Soccer Club for all of their incredible support in Asheville and since!

The first and only successful slave revolution in the Americas began in 1791 when thousands of brutally exploited slaves rose up against their masters on one of the most profitable colonies in the Atlantic world. Their success was devastating not only to their former masters but to colonial powers including the United States.

Gunboats, Marines and Bonds: The Ugly US Occupation of Haiti 1915-34 The historical tie between debt and gunboat diplomacy is ugly, rooted in imperialist and racist encounters with western powers. Few examples better illustrate the point than Haiti. In the first decades of the 20th century, Haiti was still repaying the enormous debt imposed by France as a condition of recognizing the new Haitian state nearly a century earlier. Then the U.S. marines arrived. Laurent Dubois (University of Virginia) is a leading historian on Haitian colonial history and joins us to talk about the U.S. incursions into Haiti, beginning in 1914 when the marines spirited away the country's gold reserves in the dead of night for “safekeeping.” In the course of occupying Haiti, and effectively putting the country into receivership, the U.S. engineered still more lending, designed both to protect U.S. commercial interests and to reduce the influence of European investors.

Listen to Siva's full conversation with Haiti expert Laurent Dubois, co-director of the UVA Democracy Initiative. Dubois narrates the early history of slave revolt in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, the founding of Haiti and the country's history up through a brutal intervention of the U.S. Marines in the early 20th century. This past, he says, helps put into context the current crises in Haiti, where conflicting models of political and economic autonomy have been in tension for 230 years.

In 1791, the people of Saint-Domingue threw off the yoke of slavery and revolted against their French masters, eventually founding a new nation with the radical promise of universal freedom: Haiti. Then came the hard reality of a world-system that would plague the country with debt, discord and military interventions, including a 19-year occupation by the United States. Three scholars — Marlene Daut, Laurent Dubois and Robert Fatton — help us consider Haiti's burdened past and its echoes in the present.

The Voodoo that you do is not that Vodou that Haitians do. So let's drop the pin dolls, the skulls and possession and learn about Vodou (with a “u”); a religious belief with millions of adherents around the world, and the reason why Haiti successfully orchestrated a successful slave revolt and built the worlds' first black Republic.

This episode features Professors Melody Barnes and Laurent Dubois, co-directors of the https://democracyinitiative.virginia.edu/ (Democracy Initiative) at the University of Virginia. This interdisciplinary initiative brings together a diverse range of scholars, government leaders, practitioners and students to study the urgent challenges facing democracy today and advancing its prospects for the future. Nancy, Melody and Laurent discuss the threats to democracy from both Melody's public policy and government background and Laurent's historical perspective; the inherent conflict within democracies between disempowered groups voting for change and entrenched interests that seek to restrict access to the ballot; and while we have a lot of work to do, reasons to be optimistic. https://democracyinitiative.virginia.edu (https://democracyinitiative.virginia.edu)

The American Revolution took place within a larger period known today as the “Age of Revolutions.” What does the Revolution look like when we place it within this larger context? Did it really help foment the many other failed and successful revolutions that took place during the period? Over the next two episodes of the Doing History: To the Revolution series, we’ll explore answers to these questions by taking a closer look at how the American Revolution fit within the larger context of the Age of Revolutions. The first part of our exploration will take us into the Caribbean. Laurent Dubois, a professor of history at Duke University and the author of four books about slavery and revolution in the French Caribbean, will serve as our guide.

In 2005, Laurent Dubois had an encounter that would spark his transformation from a historian with a banjo to a historian of the banjo. It was an unusual example of the instrument that began to deepen his curiosity—a Haitian artifact that had languished for most of its life in a museum collection.

The banjo links disparate musical and cultural traditions — from Africa to the Caribbean to the United States — and its history is deeply interwoven with the history of those places. In this podcast, host Robert Newman talks with Laurent Dubois about this history and his book, The Banjo: America’s African Instrument, published earlier this year by Harvard University Press. Laurent Dubois is professor of history and romance studies and faculty director of the Forum for Scholars and Publics at Duke University. He is a specialist on the history and culture of the Atlantic world, with a focus on the Caribbean and particularly Haiti. His previous books include Haiti: The Aftershocks of History (2012), Soccer Empire: The World Cup and the Future of France (2010), Avengers of the New World: The Story of the Haitian Revolution (2004), and A Colony of Citizens: Revolution and Slave Emancipation in the French Caribbean, 1787–1804 (2004). Dubois worked on The Banjo: America’s African Instrument while he was a Fellow at the National Humanities Center in 2008–09. As a Fellow at the Center again this year, he is working on a biography of dancer, choreographer, and activist Katherine Dunham.

Most scholars of popular music use songs, artists, and clubs as the key texts and sites in their exploration of the social, cultural, political, and economic effects of music. Laurent Dubois‘ new book looks at the history of an instrument, the banjo, to help us better understand American history and culture. Dubois also helps readers understand the banjo as part of an Afro-Atlantic musical heritage. In The Banjo: Americas African Instrument (Harvard University Press, 2015), Dubois examines how the banjo came into existence in the Americas and what it reveals about debates about American culture. Dubois book starts in Africa with a wide range of instruments that shaped the banjo. He then follows these instruments as they cross the Atlantic in the Middle Passage, winding up in the Caribbean and in North America. Sifting through travelers accounts and documents in archives, Dubois shows how the banjo brought together African peoples in the Americas, creating a familiar but new instrument and sound. He describes the banjo as the product of parallel development in which many enslaved musicians deployed similar instrument-making strategies to create what we now know as the banjo. The story, however, does not stop there. The banjo came to represent authentic Africa American and American culture and became a key symbol in abolitionist rhetoric and minstrelsy. As a result, the banjo was not simply an instrument but a powerful marker of identity within American culture. Dubois traces how the banjo played a significant role in jazz, country, bluegrass, and folk music, symbolizing a diverse set of values and politics. From the minstrel Joel Walker Sweeney to the political activist Pete Seeger, the history of the banjo is the history of American popular culture. Laurent Dubois is Marcello Lotti Professor of Romance Studies and History at Duke University. He is also the author of Avengers of the New World: The Story of the Haitian Revolution and Haiti: The Aftershocks of History.

The story, however, does not stop there. The banjo came to represent authentic Africa American and American culture and became a key symbol in abolitionist rhetoric and minstrelsy. As a result, the banjo was not simply an instrument but a powerful marker of identity within American culture. Dubois traces how the banjo played a significant role in jazz, country, bluegrass, and folk music, symbolizing a diverse set of values and politics. From the minstrel Joel Walker Sweeney to the political activist Pete Seeger, the history of the banjo is the history of American popular culture. Laurent Dubois is Marcello Lotti Professor of Romance Studies and History at Duke University. He is also the author of Avengers of the New World: The Story of the Haitian Revolution and Haiti: The Aftershocks of History.

Most scholars of popular music use songs, artists, and clubs as the key texts and sites in their exploration of the social, cultural, political, and economic effects of music. Laurent Dubois‘ new book looks at the history of an instrument, the banjo, to help us better understand American history and culture. Dubois also helps readers understand the banjo as part of an Afro-Atlantic musical heritage. In The Banjo: Americas African Instrument (Harvard University Press, 2015), Dubois examines how the banjo came into existence in the Americas and what it reveals about debates about American culture. Dubois book starts in Africa with a wide range of instruments that shaped the banjo. He then follows these instruments as they cross the Atlantic in the Middle Passage, winding up in the Caribbean and in North America. Sifting through travelers accounts and documents in archives, Dubois shows how the banjo brought together African peoples in the Americas, creating a familiar but new instrument and sound. He describes the banjo as the product of parallel development in which many enslaved musicians deployed similar instrument-making strategies to create what we now know as the banjo.

There are few moments in recent sports history as riveting, perplexing, and widely debated as Zinedine Zidane’s head-butt to Marco Materazzi in the final match of the 2006 World Cup. Think of your own reaction when the referee stopped play to attend to Materazzi, and you then saw the reply of Zidane trotting away from the Italian defender, turning back, and driving his head into Materazzi’s chest. Perhaps a cheer of approval, or scorn for the blatant foul. Then the red card came out, and with it the realization that Zidane’s brilliant career had come to an end. And as the camera followed him leaving the pitch, and he passed the World Cup trophy waiting on its pedestal, we understood that Zidane’s act of anger had likely cost his team the victory. Laurent Dubois, scholar of modern French history and devoted supporter of Les Bleus, recognized that the head-butt and the reactions it generated in France were questions needing serious investigation. Finding the answers, he understood, required looking beyond whatever insults Materazzi shot at Zidane in the 109th minute of the final match. Laurent’s bookSoccer Empire: The World Cup and the Future of France (University of California Press, 2011) sets Zidane’s act within multiple, overlapping frames: the history of the French national team and its traditionally multi-ethnic rosters; the development of football in France’s colonies; the experiences of immigrants from those colonies, like Zidane’s parents; the nationwide euphoria when France won the 1998 World Cup, with a team composed of players of Caribbean, New Caledonian, North African, and West African descent; and the poverty and social unrest in the banlieues of Paris and other French cities, where many of these players had grown up, which burst into violence in 2005. Against this backdrop, Laurent follows not only the story of Zidane but also that of his teammate on the national side, Lilian Thuram, a native of Guadeloupe who openly challenged the French government’s handling of the 2005 riots. As Laurent explains in our interview, his research began as the personal quest of a fan seeking to understand the action of a player. But his book is about far more than football. Soccer Empire offers insight into contemporary Europe society, with its increasing population of immigrants from around the world, by looking through the lens of sport. And Laurent has opened an ongoing forum on soccer and society with his blog Soccer Politics, which offers his and other writers’ musings and research. For the thinking football fan, it is recommended reading on the larger significance of the game, in Europe and around the world. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Mark Anthony Neal talks with Laurent Dubois about his new book, Haiti: The Aftershocks of History. Later, Mark is joined by Deborah Thomas to talk about her new film project, Bad Friday.

Co-directed by Laurent Dubois and Deborah Jenson, the "Haiti Lab" is the first humanities laboratory at the Franklin Humanities Institute. The lab merges research, education, and practical applications of innovative thinking for Haiti's disaster recovery and for the expansion of Haitian studies in the U.S. and Haiti. Located at the FHI's new headquarters at the Smith Warehouse, the Haiti Lab takes its inspiration from the collaborative and discovery-driven model of research laboratories. Undergraduate and graduate students work with specialists in Haitian culture, history, and language on projects featuring vertical integration of Duke University expertise across disciplines and schools. The Haiti Lab is also a resource for media outlets seeking to gain knowledge of Haiti.
