Today's information war in the United States is a battle between censorship and the right to tell the truth, particularly about Palestine and Apartheid Israel.

And at a high school in DC, Arab students are banned from screening the film "The Occupation of the American Mind," but we listen to portions of it on this show. Plus headlines on Debt Collective, funeral for Iran president, Kenya troops to Haiti, a combined celebration for Africa and Palestine liberation at Malcolm X Park in DC.

Sad bois of the world, unite! Alternative R&B crooner Ben Kelly burst onto the scene in January 2023 after years of dreaming about pursuing music but never putting pen to paper. Throughout the month, he dropped a flurry of singles - You & Me, With Me, and Change. In February, he added All You Wanted and Clingy to his catalog, followed by Senses and Back to You in March. In April, he dropped the electric throwback jam In My Life and followed it up in May with Malcolm X Park. He's also been active collaborating with other artists - in March he released Ring with producer Hihohohogamer, and May saw the release of his collaborative EP, Coast to Coast, with Jay Naundros. An east coast boy through and through, he hails from Connecticut but is currently based in Washington, DC. Ben's music reflects his eclectic tastes, but typically features a unique mix of contemporary alternative R&B and older soul sounds. What will 2023 hold for this new artist? Follow along to find out.

Businesses can be effective, profitable, AND feminist–all at the same time. It's true! But the great majority of our business development tools (as they exist now) reinforce masculine models of thinking and patriarchal operating by design. If you want to smash the patriarchy and, instead, opt-in to feminist business practices, this episode is for you! Building a business, as a feminist, means that you get to create your own economic destiny built on principles that you think are fair, humanistic, and sustainable. Some examples include*:   Build and grow a business based on your personal and political values Wholeheartedly believe in community over competition and strive to lift others while you climb Understand that you are not your business and it does NOT define your worth Honor your intuition and refer to it as your most trusted business advisor Create your own definition of success that isn't tied to productivity or the number of zeros in your income, it's instead based on your happiness and life goals   (*These examples all come from The Feminist Agenda by Rachel Wynn)   Are you ready to smash the patriarchy with us?!   Our incredible panel today includes:   1) Through her work in the fields of psychology and self-improvement, Amée Quiriconi brings a thought-provoking harmony of practical strategies together with the underlying drives that affect women and their business success. Her second book, The Fearless Woman's Guide to Starting a Business: What Every Woman Needs to Know to be a Courageous, Authentic, and Unstoppable Entrepreneur, is her firm step forward towards helping other women learn how to unlock their real, life-changing potential.   2) Melanie Childers is a Master Coach for feminist entrepreneurs who are committed to changing the world for women. She helps women disrupt their internalized patriarchy so they can scale successful businesses that support themselves and their communities without burning out.   3) Rachel Wynn is a multi-passionate creative entrepreneur and founder of both Starlight Social, a digital marketing company, and Feminist Founder, where she coaches feminist entrepreneurs on the topics of setting and maintaining client boundaries, the importance of delegation, invisible labor in the home, and much more! She currently lives in a co-op near Malcolm X Park with her partner, David, and dog-child Rufus on unceded Piscataway native land in Washington, DC.     What you'll learn in this episode:   What the word feminist means in 2021 The difference between emotional labor and invisible labor, and how this impacts women How to ensure the division of household labor is equitable between you and your partner Why rest is an act of defiance against the patriarchy How conscious capitalism and feminism can co-exist Practical tips on how to build a team in an equitable, inclusive way   Subscribe and Review   Thanks so much for joining me this week.

By Davy Crockett Episode 75 introduced the Fort Meade 100 held in Maryland from 1978-1989. Lost in the Fort Meade history of the late 1970s was the fact that it also attracted Centurion racewalkers who attempted to walk 100 miles in less than 24-hours. It was reported, “Some participants were walkers engaged in an odd-looking sport of walking heel-to-toe as fast as possible. It’s a small sport, there’s a lot of camaraderie in it, with only about 600 people participating nationwide.” Alan Price, an African American racewalker, was a fixture at Fort Meade 100 each year. He was an incredible athlete who became perhaps the greatest American ultra-distance racewalker ever. Price was truly an ultrarunning legend. Also covered in this episode is a division of the ultrarunning sport that most Americans have never heard about before. It is The Long Distance Walkers Association (LDWA) in England that started holding 100-mile walking events during the 1970s that attracted the general public and some 100-mile runners. The events set the stage for many of the modern 100-mile trail events. Please help support this podcast. I can offer a 25% discount on Ultrarunning Magazine subscriptions and renewals.

Alan Price – 100-mile walker Alan Eugene Price (1947-2015) was an African America walker from Washington D.C. who sold herbs and health products. He took up the ultra-walking sport in 1974, and explained, “I had been running the 880-yard run for a club called the Travelers. The trouble was that I never seemed to finish better than last. There was this one meet where I finished my usual last. Then I heard the announcer make the first call for a two-mile race-walk. I looked around and saw that only one person had responded. Since there were three trophies being given out for the event, I decided to give it a try. I accidently took third place.”  At that time, marathon fields consisted of hundreds of runners, while racewalking fields included only about a dozen walkers. This helped him decide to stick with racewalking because of the better chance to win a trophy. It took Price some time to get the walking technique down. He said, "There can be a thin line between walking and running. It all depends on how the judges view it. When I first started out, I was guilty of things like not having both feet on the ground at all times. That made me more careful than anything else. It's no fun to go out for five or six miles and then have someone disqualify you." Bennicker Junior High School As a black American, Price was a pioneer in the sport. He became a member of the Potomac Valley Seniors track club and said he felt funny practicing his walking in the daylight in Washington D.C., so he would train in the darkness of night at the track at Bennicker Junior High School.  He said, “People who don’t do this, think it’s easy. That’s because they haven’t tried it yet.” Just as today, the ultra-walking sport back in the late 1970s wasn’t well understood by the public.  Price would be the object of taunts and laughter. "People saw the switching of the behind and arms flailing, and they seemed to get a big kick out of it. But after seeing for a while, they begin to realize that there must be some difficulty in it. People who saw me train in Malcolm X Park over the years respected what I was doing." Larry O'Neil Price first walked for personal satisfaction. He said, “It was something that I felt natural doing.” Then in 1976, he went to a meet at Niagara Falls, New York, where the top racewalkers in America were trying out for the Olympics. The top three finishers qualified, and he was only one minute behind. He said, “I was surprised, and it was at that point that I knew I could hang with the big boys.” Episode 63 introduced “Centurions,” a brotherhood of walkers who had reached 100 miles ...

Julie and Casey chat with DC-based multipreneur, feminist business coach, and invisible labor expert Rachel Wynn about the feminine economy, the difference between emotional and invisible labor, who cleans out the fridge, and simple strategies for a division of labor at home that doesn’t make you resent your partner. Along the way, they learn about the time when the USA had nationalized childcare and the definition of F.L.E.B. TOP TAKEAWAYS: The Feminine Economy proposes a new model for doing business based in feminist principles: collaboration, interdependence, generosity, and equity. The US has a TERRIBLE track record of policies that actually help working women, pregnant people, and working families, but it wasn’t always the case. The phrase "emotional labor" was coined by sociologist Arlie Hochschild in her 1983 book The Managed Heart: Commercialization of Human Feeling, and refers to "a situation where the way a person manages his or her emotions is regulated by a work-related entity in order to shape the state of mind of another individual, such as a customer.” Invisible labor refers to unpaid work that goes unnoticed, unacknowledged, and thus, unregulated. In recent years, “invisible labor” has become shorthand for the household maintenance and child-rearing activities that women, primarily in cisgender, heterosexual relationships, find themselves bearing the brunt of. This common usage gets its roots from the work of Berkeley sociologist Arlie Hochschild, says Cherry. Even as more women began working outside the home in the latter half of the 20th century, Hochschild found they were still picking up the bulk of household and childcare duties when they got home after their "official" work day. In 1989, Hochschild coined the term "the second shift" to describe that extra labor, which was generally unpaid and unrecognized. If you want to make a shift in the division of labor in your household, it’s important to acknowledge the cultural factors at play and how society reinforces traditional gender roles (i.e. many men aren’t taught how to do these things, but they can learn!). Then you can get clear on exactly what needs done (make a list!), and when dividing that list, make sure that it’s equitable (it’s not about the NUMBER of tasks, it’s about the frequency and duration). Division of labor issues doesn’t just affect cisgender, heterosexual couples, or families with children. These principles apply to all types of relationships, including roommates and business partners.
