John Plotz of Recall This Book spoke in 2020 with Sanjay Krishnan, Boston University English professor and Conrad scholar about his marvelous new book on that grumpiest of Nobel laureates, V. S Naipaul's Journeys. Krishnan sees the “contrarian and unsentimental” Trinidad-born but globe-trotting novelist and essayist as early and brilliant at noticing the unevenness with which the blessings and curses of modernity were distributed in the era of decolonization. Centrally, Naipaul realized and reckoned with the always complex and messy question of the minority within postcolonial societies. He talks with John about Naipaul's early focus on postcolonial governments, and how unusual it was in the late 1950's for colonial intellectuals to focus on “the discomfiting aspects of postcolonial life….and uneven consequences of the global transition into modernity.” Most generatively of all, Sanjay insists that the “troublesome aspect is what gives rise to what's most positive in Naipaul.” Discussed in the Episode Chinua Achebe, There Was a Country (2012) George Lamming, e.g. (In the Castle of My Skin, 1953) V.

Dr. Walter Anthony Rodney (March 23, 1942 – June 13, 1980) Although it has been over forty years since the cowardly and brutal assassination of our dearly beloved brother Dr. Walter Anthony Rodney (aka Dr. W.A.R.), his intrepid spirit lives on with us today. While the quisling, pelf worshipping assassins succeeded in destroying Dr. Rodney physically, they paradoxically immortalized him. Dr. Rodney's life was/is the personification of an uncompromised intellectual who committed, what Amilcar Cabral called, class suicide in service of the people. Assiduously devoted to theory and practice, or better said conscientization, the life of Dr. Walter Anthony Rodney, from an African cosmological perspective, can be seen as an orisha or loi.

Kandyse McClure's filmography is populated by a staggering range of characters. On the critically acclaimed and beloved Battlestar Galactica, Kandyse portrayed Anastasia “Dee” Dualla, a passionate woman who fought, loved, dreamt, and, ultimately, succumbed to despair. As Nicte Batan in the third and final season of Motherland: Fort Salem, she wrestled with her character's past as a terrorist while forging unexpected alliances. As Sam in Neill Blomkamp's wildly entertaining horror film Demonic, she embodied the stuff of nightmares; and as Golden Eyes in the genre-defying feature film Sew the Winter to My Skin – a role for which she was nominated for an African Movie Academy Award – she somehow managed to speak volumes about the impact of oppression on humanity without actually speaking many words at all. Other recent work includes GenZeroes (the cutting-edge project championed by friend of the pod Aleks Paunovic), Charmed, Limetown, the bonkers Netflix series Ghost Wars, and a standout role as Viola Desmond, the entrepreneur who challenged segregation in Nova Scotia in the 1940s, in an iconic Heritage Minute. The projects and roles are wildly different, but the thread that unites them is the humanity, authenticity, and conviction that Kandyse brings to each one. In this riveting episode of the YVR Screen Scene Podcast, Kandyse reflects on her journey from South Africa at 11 years old, grieving Dee, moving into her “villain era,” and dancing in her trailer.Content warning: This episode contains frank talk about suicide.

George Lamming, in full George William Lamming, (born June 8, 1927, Carrington Village, near Bridgetown, Barbados), was a West Indian novelist and essayist who wrote about decolonization and reconstruction in Caribbean nations.At Combermere High School, Lamming studied under Frank Collymore, editor of the Caribbean literary journal Bim, which published some of Lamming's early work. Lamming left Barbados and worked as a teacher in Trinidad from 1946 to 1950 before settling in England. His highly acclaimed first novel, In the Castle of My Skin(1953), is an autobiographical bildungsroman set against the backdrop of burgeoning nationalism in the British colonies of the Caribbean in the 1930s and '40s.Lamming continued to study decolonization in his succeeding three novels: The Emigrants (1954), a despairing, fragmentary work about Caribbean immigrants in post-World War II England; Of Age and Innocence (1958), a microcosmic look at the problems of political independence; and Season of Adventure (1960), in which a West Indian woman discovers her African heritage. The Pleasures of Exile (1960) is a collection of essays that examines Caribbean politics, race, and culture in an international context. Lamming's later novels included Water with Berries (1971), a political allegory based on William Shakespeare's The Tempest, and Natives of My Person (1971), about 16th-century explorers in the West Indies. His poetry and short stories were published in various anthologies, and Conversations, a volume of essays and interviews, was published in 1992.From https://www.britannica.com/biography/George-Lamming. For more information about George Lamming:“Remembering George Lamming's spirit of generosity”: https://www.newframe.com/remembering-george-lammings-spirit-of-generosity/The Pleasures of Exile: https://www.press.umich.edu//10236“George Lamming”: ​​https://www.theguardian.com/books/2022/jun/14/george-lamming-obituary

And can we come back to the question of multiethnic households once again?Renowned psychologist and best-selling author Dr Beverly Daniel Tatum explains how we raise black children who are confident, savvy and ready for the world, without burdening them with the trauma of racism.Find out more about the revised 20 year anniversary edition of Dr Beverly's book, Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?: And Other Conversations About Race, here.Find out more about Laura Henry-Allain's children's book, My Skin, Your Skin: Let's Talk About Race, Racism and Empowerment, here.Follow Black Ballad on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok.

Mila Knight was 38 when she was diagnosed with Stage II hormone-positive breast cancer.  In this episode Mila reads her piece “Crawling in My Skin” from Wildfire Magazine's 2021 “Body” issue.  Mila has always turned to music for solace in hard times, so it was no wonder that music also lifted her up while going through cancer treatment. Her journaling turned to song-writing, and then she took her passion and her pain and channeled it into a fundraising concert. April and Mila will discuss the burden of breaking ancestral and generational trauma cycles through sharing previously unspoken experiences, and becoming a patient advocate by shining the light on disparities in healthcare while following her dreams.  More about Mila: https://www.instagram.com/milaknightsings/ (https://www.instagram.com/milaknightsings/) More about Mila's podcast: https://ofsongmind.com/about/ (https://ofsongmind.com/about/) More about Susan G.

African-American people are not only plagued with racism by those outside of their community, but colorism deepens the racial pain because of the wounds that are created by people from "inside" the Black community. The negative psychological effects of favoring people with lighter skin over those with darker skin have weakened the strength of Black people and caused an unnecessary chasm among those who can least afford divisions that inhibit individual and collective growth and racial progression.

We can all take action to live healthier, happier and longer lives. Did you know that men die on average six years earlier than women, and for reasons that are largely preventable? Which means that it doesn't have to be that way. The Movember movement was started 18 years ago, to “change the face” of men's health and help men live happier, healthier, longer lives. This Movember, the Empowered in My Skin podcast, is opening up the conversation around Men's Health.

In this episode, John Colinson shares his personal story of his health journey. John is an experienced Technology Executive at one of Canada's leading financial institutions. During this pandemic season, while looking at his watch one day, John noticed that he was only getting in 2000 steps. Quickly realizing this was not enough, he laced up his sneakers, looked at how he can improve his food consumption, and took matters into his own hands. He started with small steps, and made small improvements over time. As you learn about his journey, you will quickly see the power that lies within all of us when we commit to our health with a level of consistency that has no bounds. We also get John to share about his journey to vulnerability and what that has meant for him. You will quickly learn that vulnerability helps us with being a well human. We love the simple life philosophy that John shares, and we know that you will to. If this episode resonates with you, then remember to subscribe, 5-star rate, comment, and share this podcast!

This is our second installment of our 5-part series called, Thriving Across Generations. Be sure to check out the first part, if you are joining us for the first time. Throughout this series, we are hosting an amazing group of humans that span generations. Our conversations are rich with experience, and so much wisdom and insight, shared by our Baby Boomers, Gen X'ers, Millennials, and Gen Z'ers. A generation gap is commonly perceived to refer to differences between generations that cause conflict and complicate communication, creating a "gap.” However, at Empowered in My Skin, we believe that differences between generations can provide great insight, wisdom, and be positive and empowering. A big part of why we are doing this series is to amplify the fact that when we seek to understand and communicate with one other, we find more common ground that we likely thought existed.  We are more alike than we are different, through our experiences. In this episode, our host Nkechi Nwafor-Robinson and co-host, Gaby Mammone, tackle the topic of Technology and Communication with the panel. Our guests share how communication has evolved for them over the years, and traditions that they still try to keep alive. We see similarities in what is important to the panelists, irrespective of their generation. We explore future visions and desires for our world, and again see the parallels of the desires that are held in our hearts for a better world.

This is a first for our podcast! We are running a 5-part series called, Thriving Across Generations. We will be hosting an amazing group of humans that span generations. Our conversations were rich with experience, and so much wisdom and insight were shared by our Baby Boomers, Gen X'ers, Millennials, and Gen Z'ers. A generation gap is commonly perceived to refer to differences between generations that cause conflict and complicate communication, creating a "gap.” However, at Empowered in My Skin, we believe that differences between generations can provide great insight, wisdom, and be positive and empowering. A big part of why we are doing this series is to amplify the fact that when we seek to understand and communicate with one other, we find more common ground that we likely thought existed. We are more alike than we are different, through our experiences. In this episode, our host Nkechi Nwafor-Robinson and co-host, Gaby Mammone, tackle the topic of Lifestyle and Relationship with the panel. Our guests share how their values have shaped their lives and evolved over the years. Beyond that, there were so many amazing legacy moments articulated, that we trust you will connect with the energy that is shared throughout this episode.

Nigerian-American, Visual Artist, Activist, Designer and Author Biodun Abudu calls in to The Junk and Jam Hour to share his remarkable journey of exploring his many creative endeavors – bravely going against the traditional gender roles that were set within the Nigerian culture. Beginning with his purpose as an accomplished storyteller and author, Biodun talks about using his literature and platform to not just tell the untold stories of victims of sexual assault, but provide a safe space for them to begin overcoming their trauma and isolation, and heal from their past transgressions and abuse. On topic are his novels, Tales of My Skin and Stolen Sanity, where he candidly reveals the unfortunate prevalence of sexual assault – and the challenges faced by both male and female victims when pitted against the often antiquated traditions and patriarchy of Nigerian culture, including distrust, ridicule and possibly more assault – leading to anguish and self-harm. After Biodun happily talks about his dedication to elevating and celebrating the beauty and wisdom of the marginalized African and black woman through the crafting and designing of his culturally-unique, afro-centric artwork and fashion – he then joins Christopher in an extensive dialog about the subjugation of African women, where abuse has been institutionalized. Ever the writer, Biodun also talks about his latest, sex-positive, erotic poetry book – Forbidden Scriptures – an open and creative inscription on the topic of sex.
