In 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson declared that the third Sunday in June would henceforth be celebrated as Father's Day. It was a symbolic gesture aimed at strengthening paternal bonds, as well as a tacit rejection of the policies recommended by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who had just left Johnson's administration in disgrace after his controversial report on Black family life and poverty was leaked. “As we know it,” Scholar contributor Augustine Sedgewick writes in his new book, “Father's Day is an unintended consequence of the fractious American politics of race, gender, and class.” Sedgewick's book, Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power, is the story of how such politics ensnarled parental care, and of the men who expanded the domain of fathers across generations of crisis and change, from Aristotle and Henry VIII to Freud and Bob Dylan. Go beyond the episode:Augustine Sedgewick's Fatherhood: A History of Love and PowerThe far right's signature style is less about dad pants and more about fatherhood: read Sedgewick's essay “Ku Klux Khaki”“Thoreau's Pencils,” Sedgwick explores the abolitionist's relationship with his family—and his family business's ties to slaveryFor more on the Moynihan Report and political interventions on parenting, read Melinda Cooper's Family ValuesTune in every (other) week to catch interviews with the liveliest voices from literature, the arts, sciences, history, and public affairs; reports on cutting-edge works in progress; long-form narratives; and compelling excerpts from new books.

What kind of Post-Trump world do we want to live in? The MAGA-Republicans and progressive left Democrats are in a bitter fight for the vote of American citizens, one side offering tax cuts galore for wealthy citizens and favored industries (funded by massive and unsustainable increases in the public debt), the other side offering an avalanche of benefits for favored identities and favored industries (funded by massive and unsustainable increases in the public debt). In this commentary, we look at what we really need to do to navigate in a Post-Trump world.

The Moynihan Report (1965) written by later New York Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1927-2003) is an important document in the backlash against the Civil Rights era, but it constitutes an important document in gender conservatism as well. In this episode, Adrian and Moira read through the report in some detail, and talk about the many brilliant critiques level at Moynihan and his project pretty much from the start. You can find the report here, and Hortense Spiller's brilliant dissection of it here. [Note: there are a couple of words in this episode that we weren't wild about saying. Just be warned.]

In Episode Fourteen, DDSWTNP turn our attention for the first time to DeLillo's drama – and to a largely unknown work by DeLillo as playwright, a 1966 radio play and disturbing take on U.S. race relations titled Mother. We cover the circumstances of the play's original broadcasts, its re-emergence in an internet archive recording more than 50 years later, and the strange way in which this story's armchair progressives and Billie Holiday fans, Ralph and Sally, end up making a fetishizing travesty of civil rights and racial integration in the play's brief 27 minutes. Topics include the importance of radio to Mother's themes of media occlusion, moral numbness, and erasure; what DeLillo means by Ralph's “white malady” of transparency and how it reworks images from another Ralph's Invisible Man; and what this play has to do with contemporaneous issues like interracial marriage in Loving v. Virginia. We talk extensively as well about how Mother presages parts of the early novels, from jazz love in Americana to Taft in End Zone and Azarian in Great Jones Street.

In this episode, Elizabeth and John talk with Derron Wallace, sociologist of education and Brandeis colleague, about his new book The Culture Trap, which explores "ethnic expectations" for Caribbean schoolchildren in New York and London. His work starts with the basic puzzle that while black Caribbean schoolchildren in New York are often considered as "high-achieving," in London, they have been, conversely thought to be "chronically underachieving." Yet in each case the main cause -- of high achievement in New York and low achievement in London -- is said to be cultural. We discuss the concept of "ethnic expectations" and the ways it can have negative effects even when the expectations themselves are positive, and the dense intertwining of race, class, nation, colonial status, and gender, and the travels of the concept of culture in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Marriage and divorce are not experienced the same way for men and women. The same is true for white and Black women. Sociologist Aneeka Henderson has written extensively about the marriage economy and the obstacles that limit opportunities even in marriages for Black people.If you like what you hear, preorder This American Ex-Wife and subscribe to this newsletter.

It shifted my understanding of the way marriage functions in society and pop culture.* In the show, we talk about the Moynihan Report. In 2015, Ta-Nahisi Coates wrote a long analysis of the report's legacy that is worth revisiting. The essay puts into focus how Americans understand poverty and marriage. And a lot of the myths perpetuated by the Moynihan report persist today.* I also thought this write-up about the Moynihan Report was very smart and worth the time it takes to read.

Episode 98 is an interview with Dr. Evan Auguste, an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts Boston and a pre-licensed clinical psychologist at Ma'at Psychological Services. We delved into the concept of Black Liberation psychology, a crucial field aimed at addressing the mental health repercussions of structural anti-Blackness. Dr. Auguste's work focuses on developing community-based health interventions, like the Sawubona Healing Circles, that promote healing through an African-centered framework.  We also dive into the history and initiatives of the Association for Black Psychologists.    Continuing Education Units (CEUs): https://cbiconsultants.com/shop BACB: 1.5 Learning IBAO: 1.5 Cultural QABA: 1.5 DEI   Contact: https://www.evanauguste.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.evan.auguste/ https://twitter.com/SonDessalines https://www.umb.edu/faculty_staff/bio/evan_auguste   Links:  Sawubona Healing Circles https://abpsi.org/programs/sawubona/ Trayvon Martin  https://origins.osu.edu/article/justice-denied-killing-trayvon-martin-historical-perspective?language_content_entity=en   Black Lives Matter Movement https://blacklivesmatter.com/ SEED Collective https://scholarselevatingeqdiv.wordpress.com/ Moynihan Report

Mitra Kalita and Sara Lomax-Reese of URL Media join Laura for this month's “Meet the BIPOC Press” to consider what has changed in the coverage — and the organizing — around reproductive justice in the years since Roe. Are abortion seekers of color still a sidebar in reporting or has journalism finally reached a tipping point on inclusion? What difference are BIPOC-owned-and-operated media making in this moment, to our understanding of what's been lost, and to the debate over what is needed now? Our hosts are joined by Assemblymember Jessica González-Rojas, from Queens, NY, and La'Tasha D. Mayes, Democratic Nominee for the Pennsylvania Statehouse from Pittsburgh.“Abortion is not about life. It is about power and control over our bodies.” - Jessica González-Rojas“The strategy to protect abortion access in our nation was misguided. We were not protecting Roe to the degree that it needed and that while it provided basic constitutional protections it was always the floor for basic human rights . . . Black women, folks of color and poor abortion seekers have been living in a post-Roe world for years.” - La'Tasha D. MayesGuestsJessica González-Rojas: Assemblymember, District 34 in Queens, NY; Former Leader, National Latina Institute for Reproductive JusticeLa'Tasha D.

Is rejection and trauma the Black Manosphere and Toxic Femininity villain origin story?! In today's episode we're joined by soon-to-be PhD Candidate Anuli Akanegbu to discuss patriarchy, the know-your-place aggression towards Black women online, and what draws people to these spaces on the internet. What's The Word? Patriarchy. This term is used to describe a society that organizes itself around the idea that cis men are superior to and should dominate over... everybody else. This structure imposes the gender binary and influences the way we're socialized. We also discuss the spiritual side of the divine feminine, which looks nothing like what we see on YouTube. What We're Reading. Black Macho and the Myth of the Superwoman by Michele Wallace. The chapter we discuss asserts that the men in the Black Power movements were relying on Norman Mailer's "The White Negro" and the Moynihan Report to shape what Black manhood and a revolutionary should look like. What in the World?! We speak with Anuli Akanegbu about the outgrowth of the Black Manosphere from Hotep Twitter, the "applesauce" that helps some folks swallow the red pill, Steve Harvey, capitalizing on tearing down Black women, the aesthetics of these spaces, being "high-value" as an afterlife of slavery, the way all of this is tied to capitalism, and what it means to feel welcome in your own body.

In this episode, I take on California's Republican Frontrunner in this month's recall election, Larry Elder. Specifically, I debunk a series of claims he made in a now-viral 2016 interview on a show called The Rubin Report. I demonstrate why Elder is wrong about systemic racism not existing, wrong about the origin of racial disparities in non-nuclear homes, wrong about conservatism and libertarianism being compatible, and wrong about various other things. If you want to listen to the parts that interest most but don't have time to listen to the whole thing right now, I have included below some time stamps that show you what subject matter is covered at various points of the episode. 0:-9:05: Background on who Larry Elder is 9:06-14:53: Background on Dave Rubin and his interview with Elder 15:54-23:25: Discussion of how Elder papers over the drastic differences between libertarianism and conservatism, misrepresents the Founding Fathers, and downplays the importance of gay marriage as a civil liberties issue. 23:26-25:45: How Elder contradicts himself on Democrats and fatherlessness vs systemic racism 25:46-30:53: How Elder uses black-on-black crime as a way to dismiss issues of systemic racism, ignores all the black people on the left who have spoken up about "black on black crime" and is enabled by Rubin. 30:54-34:00: How Elder misrepresents what the concept of systemic racism actually is to support his arguments 34:01-36:52: Why the study Elder cites doesn't show a lack of racial bias in police killings 36:53-49:18: Why Elder's "comply and you won't get killed" narrative is a canard, and how he lied about a police shooting that disproved his claim. 49:19-105: Why, contrary to what Elder says, black people still don't have equal opportunities in America, why the root cause of racial disparities in non-nuclear homes is slavery, NOT federal welfare programs, and how Elder misrepresents data without being fact-checked by Rubin(again.) 105:1-107:12: How Elder gets the Moynihan Report wrong 107:13-110:49: How Elder overstates his case on black voters skewing conservative in the aggregate, completely contradicts himself, and comically overestimates Trump's share of the black vote. 110:50-111:55: How Elder changed his mind about Tim Scott fast 111:56-115:05: How Elder accidentally admits the Democratic and Republican parties have switched on race issues. 115:06-:116:20: How Elder parrots white supremacist talking points about Hispanic Americans and immigration 116:21-119:27: How Elder overstates his case on Dick Cheney being an ally to gay people 119:28-121:00: How Elder makes me defend Tavis Smiley 121:01-122:07: Elder criticizes cancel culture before defending it in 2017 122:08-124:11: How Elder contradicts what he's been saying for almost the entire interview in order to take a potshot against illegal immigrants and what we can do to keep him from becoming governor.

I think everyone should read the Moynihan Report. This document, known then as "The Negro Family: The Case For National Action," held that many of the problems of American blacks resulted from the instability of black urban families. The report was leaked to the media in July 1965, one month before the devastating riots in Watts, and called for more government action to improve the economic prospects of black families. Daniel Patrick Moynihan was a sociologist and assistant secretary for policy planning and research at the Labor Department. He became a prominent U.S. Senator representing New York and later served as an adviser to President Richard Nixon. Moynihan urged that the Federal Government adopt a national policy for the reconstruction of the black family. He laid out clear arguments, noting that the real cause of the troubles in the black community was not so much segregation or a lack of voting power. He recognized the structure of the Negro family was highly "unstable and in many urban centers…approaching complete breakdown."Read more HERE: https://claytoncraddock.substack.com/p/the-moynihan-report-52fClayton Craddock is a father, independent thinker, and the founder and publisher of the social and political commentary newsletter Think Things Through and host of the Think Things Through Podcast.He's an alumnus of Howard University and is the drummer for the Broadway musical Ain't Too Proud - The Life and Times Of The Temptations.Other musicals include: "Tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, and Lady Day At Emerson's Bar and Grill.

Counselor and Liberty professor Dr. Mark Myers joins Robert and Jeff to discuss the "courageous conversations" that he and Dr. Melvin Pride began in 2016 as a forum for discussing race and asking questions about the hot button issues.  Dr. Myers shares his experiences as a white man from Colorado raised in poverty having these discussions publicly with Dr. Pride - an African American raised in the Jim Crow south.  Dr. Myers shares how we can widen our perspectives, and discover how growing in relationship with persons of differing race leads us to question our prejudgments and assumptions, make us more curious, slower to react, and a little more aware.  Dr. Myers looks to Romans 13:8 as setting the standard for racial reconciliation, challenging us to fulfill the law of God, which is the law of love.

Genovese (Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1968). The following passage is included in this article:The conditions of our problem are as follows:1. A century or two ago the negroes were savages in the wilds of Africa. 2. Those who were brought to America, and their descendants, have acquired a certain amount of civilization, and are now in some degree fitted for life in modern civilized society. 3. This progress of the negroes has been in very large measure the result of their association with civilized white people. 4. An immense mass of the negroes is sure to remain for an indefinite period in the midst of a civilized white nation. The problem is, How can we best provide for their peaceful residence and their further progress in this nation of white men and how can we best guard against their lapsing back into barbarism? As a possible solution for a large part of the problem, I suggest the plantation system.

Hello!This week, your intrepid hosts had the pleasure to speak with journalist Daniel Denvir and his podcast “The Dig,” with Jacobin Radio. Daniel engaged us on a number of topics we’ve touched upon recently, including: the Atlanta shootings and the question of anti-Asian violence; the connection between anti-China foreign policy and domestic anti-Asian racism; the potential for an Asian backlash against liberalism and the Democratic party; affirmative-action fights and the enduring mythology of “model minorities”; and the coherence and usefulness of “Asian” identity.

On this episode we explore how Dr. Ashley Patterson and Jackie Saylor are helping high school students engage in difficult conversations of race and social injustices while maintaining an emotionally safe space to do so. Dr. Patterson’s research and work challenges us to shift the paradigm of what “literacy” actually is and how race plays a role in our situational literacy. Her current work gives a platform for her participants to share their personal experiences with traveling abroad and how their perspectives influence their beliefs.Timestamps:0:01 - Introduction3:25 - Dr. Patterson background and growing up8:59 - Definition of learning10:31 - Experience at THE Ohio State University12:59 - Pure data can minoritize groups over time (Moynihan Report and personal story)17:50 - Penn State - Principles of Social Justice in Education19:31 - Changing the paradigm of "literacy" and "appropriate educational material"26:28 - Analyzing the purpose and use of language and literacy31:28 - {Jackie Saylor - the inception of "Diversity and Social Justice"35:00 - {Implementation of research in education.37:53 - {Reflecting on the significance of the class41:07 - {Goal of the class42:26 - {What can you do in your opinion?44:01 - {Resources: Culturaly Responsive Teaching and Learning, The Power of the Adolescent Brain, Waking up White47:08 - Ashley’s current research - Finding where inequities live in our system by analyzing how people perceive those inequities.49:04 - Understanding why study abroad programs are largely white women51:48 - Honoring the voices of the participants56:49 - Difference between students’ international experience.1:01:50 - Exit Ticket Questions1:07:08 - Wrap-up and conclusion

In this podcast we discuss Black Power and the Black Panther Party with historian, Dr Ashley Farmer. Dr Farmer is the author of the fantastic book "Remaking Black Power: How Black Women Transformed an Era". What are the central principles of Black Power? Did Black Power start with Stokely Carmichael in 1966? We see that Black Power has a long history, going back to Marcus Garvey and Robert F Williams. Who were the Deacons for Defense? Black Power coalesced into a movement in the 1960's and 1970's. The term itself can actually be traced back to author Richard Wright. Dr Farmer shows how Black Power was more of an ideology, but that this way of thinking found expression in the Black Power Movement. Why is the Civil Rights Movement associated with non-violence, but Black Power with the use of force? How did this false dichotomy come about? Why do people still think Rosa Parks was either tired or old when she refused to give up her bus seat to a white man? The Civil Rights Movement and Black Power were more like streams that weaved into each other. It wasn't necessarily two separate movements. Dr Farmer refers to these efforts for the liberation of African Americans as the Black Freedom Movement. But it is a fact that strategies and approaches differed depending on what black people's lives looked like. Why is Malcolm X considered the patron saint of Black Power? Why are women "left out" of the conventional Black Power narrative? Dr Farmer shows how the Moynihan Report of 1965 contributed to the silencing of women's voices. Who were some of important women in the Black Power movement? Ella Baker is quoted as saying "strong people don't need strong leaders". To do Black Women's history is to do grassroots history. Find out why this is the case. What is the origin story of the Black Panthers? Where did the ideas and icons for the Black Panthers come from? We learn that there was way more to the Black Panthers than the much publicized "police the police". We also talk about the roles of Angela Davis and Kathleen Cleaver. We conclude by discussing the link between Black Power and Black Lives Matter. This was truly a very insightful discussion about a topic that definitely needs re-investigation.

Kenneth Braswell is the Chief Executive Officer of Fathers Incorporated, a widely recognized national and international nonprofit organization supporting fathers, practitioners, researchers, and policymakers that provides capacity building services to thousands of organizations working to ensure that fathers contribute to the healthy well-being of their children. He brings 29 years of collective work experience managing and leading fatherhood and community programs. Additionally, he serves as the National Director of the National Responsible Fatherhood Clearing House (NRFC) directing and guiding the strategic activities of the NRFC. Recently, Mr. Braswell was on our show talking about Black Dads Count. During our conversation, Mr. Braswell talked about: – Some background about Fathers Incorporated – The story behind Black Dads Count – How did the partnership with the United States Census Bureau came into being – The importance of Black dads being part of the census – Some reasons why Black fathers have not registered for the census and why it is important for them to register for the census – The barbershop being one of the hubs for Black men – How has his experience has helped with launching Black Dads Count – The importance of him and Fathers Incorporated staying focused on Black fathers – Ways of getting men to open up and reveal intimacy – the youngest (13 years old) and oldest (sixty-two years old) father that he has approached since he starting helping fathers – A successful father being successful listener – This initiative bringing new perspectives to him – His big dream for Black Dads Count About the Black Dads Count Project … According to a report on Men's Fertility and Fatherhood (2014) by the U.S. Census there are 8.2 Million Black (only) fathers in the U.S. It is hard to fathom that ALL of these dads are absent, however that is what the societal narrative would lead you to believe. ​2020 marks the 55th Anniversary of the 1965 Moynihan Report. The controversial report argued that combating poverty required strengthening families in the United States—particularly through positively impacting Black men. ​The 2020 U.S. Census provides an opportunity to ensure that Black Dads and their families are represented properly in the count of U.S. citizens.

James explains that blaming the victim is important, so people learn! Feminists, liberals, and black victimhood pushers don't like it though. But now even whites and men are "victims"! Pathetic! (as Jesse Lee Peterson says). GREAT CALLS! (See below.) BLOG POST: https://www.thehakereport.com/blog/2019/8/18/victim-blaming-is-necessary-and-good-sun-aug-18-2019 Caller Log: Ryan from Concord, CA, liked Joel's skydiving, and discusses Dinesh D'Souza and Richard Spencer. Ariel from Orlando, FL, wants to get past sexual issues. James recommends Jesse's counseling via BOND http://rebuildingtheman.com/counseling or 323-782-1980 Mike from Vista, CA, interrupted an old man at the Free Speech Forum! He talks the Bible. Maze from Dayton, OH, thinks most blacks love each other. BTW: Me Too people also promote being victims, even without proof. William Ryan wrote a book about victim-blaming, I believe as a response to the Moynihan Report. Patrick Moynihan talked about the negro family and "the case for national action." It was a crisis that black out-of-wedlock births were at 24-percent in 1965. VIDEO from the show: https://youtu.be/evKeItP9XmE

Listen to this edition of the Pan-African Journal hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. We feature our regular PANW report with dispatches on events in the Republic of South Africa where a political struggle is developing over the economic future of the country, the continent's most industrialized; the United States stock market took a nose dive on December 18 in the aftermath of the raising of interest rates and the further decline in oil prices; in Rwanda a referendum was held on whether longtime President Paul Kgame should run again for public office; and finally Burundi has become of focus of attention by the United Nations and the African Union due to the continuing unrest surrounding the third term of President Pierre Nkurunziza. In the second hour we present a rebroadcast of an interview with host Abayomi Azikiwe conducted by Radio 786 in Cape Town on December 18 looking at events in Burundi and Libya. In the final segment we focus on a re-examination the so-called Moynihan Report and its flawed character of analysis of the African American family from 1965.

Daniel Geary is the Mark Pigott Associate Professor in U.S. History at Trinity College Dublin. His book Beyond Civil Rights: The Moynihan Report and Its Legacy (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2015) is a detail and illuminating analysis of the reception of Patrick Moynihan’s 1965 report The Negro Family: The Case for National Action. Geary argues that the report was neither a conservative or a liberal document but rather a conflicted one whose internal contradictions reflected the breakup of the liberal consensus and its legacy. The ambiguities of the report allowed multiple interpretations, from both the left and the right, and marked the emergence of neoconservatism. Conservatives used the report to rally against the liberal welfare state and promote African Americans self-help. Liberals saw in the document the need to go beyond legal equality to aggressive economic intervention through training programs, job creation and the family wage. The extensive and long debate over the report involved the issues of family structure, the source of “social pathology” and the “culture of poverty.” African American civil rights leader split over the report. The Black Power representatives attacked its white sociological perspective that failed to take into account how black people saw the situation. Black feminists protested the portrayal of black women as domineering matriarchs and the male breadwinner model. By the time of the Nixon administration, fatigue over the debates had Moynihan arguing for “benign neglect” rather than national action, believing in an unfolding of progress evident in the black middle-classes. After fifty years, the reverberation from the Moynihan report continues as Americans wrestle with the relationship between race and economic inequality and the unfinished business of social equality that moves beyond civil rights.

Join us as we look into this age old notion that we as  Oringal people are constantly accused for wrong doing even in death.   William Ryan coined the phrase "blaming the victim" in his 1971 book Blaming the Victim.[3][4][5][6][7] In the book, Ryan described victim blaming as an ideology used to justify racism and social injustice against black people in the United States.[6] Ryan wrote the book to refute Daniel Patrick Moynihan's 1965 work The Negro Family: The Case for National Action (usually simply referred to as the Moynihan Report).[citation needed] Moynihan had concluded that three centuries of horrible treatment at the hands of whites, and in particular the uniquely cruel structure of American slavery as opposed to its Latin American counterparts, had created a long series of chaotic disruptions within the black family structure which, at the time of the report, manifested itself in high rates of unwed births, absent fathers, and single mother households in black families. Moynihan then correlated these familial outcomes, which he considered undesirable, to the relatively poorer rates of employment, educational achievement, and financial success found among the black population.
