"If we were different people, to write down these words might be to leave them behind us. But words are our artifacts, and I am seeding a trail for the journey, home." What does the daughter of a Nakba survivor inherit? It is not property or tangible heirlooms, nor the streets and neighbourhoods of a father's childhood and the deep roots of family who have lived in one place, Jerusalem, for generation upon generation. Fixing her gaze on moments, places and objects – from the streets of Bethlehem to the Palestinian neighbourhoods of the New Jerusalem – Micaela Sahhar assembles a story of Palestinian diaspora. Find Me at the Jaffa Gate: An Encyclopaedia of a Palestinian Family (Newsouth, 2025) is a book about the gaps and blank spaces that cannot be easily recounted, but which insists on the vibrant reality of chance, fragments and memory to reclaim a place called home. Roberto Mazza is currently a visiting scholar at the Buffett Institute for Global Affairs at Northwestern University.

We're heading South today to hear from Melissa Lee of New South Home. This Charlotte-based interior designer and former retail buyer pulls back the curtain on the real inner workings of running a design firm—from pricing strategy and client education to vendor relationships and market trends. Drawing from her experience in corporate buying, she has developed a clear understanding of profit margins, vendor management, and operational efficiency, which she now applies to her design business through practices like maintaining a vendor matrix and detailed time tracking. I don't want you to think this is a business of design episode, it's not. Sometimes these conversations go deeper into the business to further explain the work, this is one of those times. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep LOME-AI.com, simple, inexpensive, text to video harnessing the power of AI to grow your firm, beautifully. Melissa discusses the challenges of pricing interior design work in a landscape full of conflicting advice—flat fee versus hourly models, for example—and how she has evolved her own “conceptually fixed with scope management” approach. Clients receive an upfront estimate based on hours, but additional fees apply when scope or decisions shift beyond agreed terms. This hybrid method offers flexibility while protecting the business from runaway labor costs. Events like High Point Market and KBIS (Kitchen & Bath Industry Show) play a strategic role in how she sources vendors, stays inspired, and builds key relationships. She balances structured vendor meetings with looser time for discovery, realizing that over-scheduling stifles creativity. Her buying background taught her the value of planning, but in design, adaptability creates more opportunity. The conversation digs into vendor relations in a shifting economic landscape, with concerns about rising tariffs, erratic pricing, and questionable fee increases. Thanks to long-standing relationships and proactive reps, her team has been buffered from the worst of it. Still, she builds flexibility into her contracts and transparently preps clients for potential 5% swings in final invoices due to supply chain or pricing changes—an approach appreciated in a world where nothing feels stable. Managing client expectations is a recurring theme—from educating them on the unseen hours behind emails, revisions, and project coordination, to setting boundaries when projects creep beyond the original scope. Weekly check-ins, detailed proposals, and scope clarity help prevent misunderstandings and maintain trust. Looking ahead, she sees potential challenges driven by economic uncertainty—rising tariffs, high interest rates, and general cost-of-living increases may stall some clients' investment in their homes. But Charlotte's rapid growth continues to fuel demand, giving her firm an edge in an evolving national market. Melissa also hints at expanding service areas, including outdoor living design, and continues to explore how design firms can evolve—perhaps aided by AI or new business tools—to reduce burnout and reclaim creativity. At its heart, the conversation underscores the complexity of modern design businesses, where creativity, logistics, and business acumen must coexist. And you're going to hear all about it, right after this. Thank you, Melissa, loved our chat. Thank you for listening.

Hablamos en Washington D.C. con Otaviano Canuto, "fellow" del Policy Center for the New South; también en esa ciudad con la corresponsal Dori Toribio, y en Madrid con Marta García Aller, periodista de "El Confidencial" y directora del pódcast "Pausa"
"O dólar é rei", declarou Donald Trump nesta terça-feira (8). E completou: "vamos mantê-lo assim”, ao dizer que a perda da hegemonia da moeda dos EUA seria equivalente à “derrota em uma guerra”. As declarações de Trump são uma reação aos Brics que, após o encontro sediado no Rio de Janeiro, publicaram um documento defendendo o uso de moedas locais em transações comerciais. Foi imediatamente após a declaração conjunta dos Brics que o presidente dos EUA ameaçou taxar países que se alinhassem com a política do grupo – que chama de “antiamericanas”. O uso de moedas locais é uma demanda antiga do grupo, o que põe em risco a supremacia econômica e de influência dos EUA no sistema de comércio global. Neste episódio, Julia Duailibi recebe o economista Octaviano Canuto, que foi vice-presidente do Banco Mundial e diretor-executivo do FMI, para explicar o momento atual do dólar e o que significaria uma desdolarização da economia. Canuto, que também é membro sênior do Policy Center for the New South e professor da Universidade George Washington, relembra quando o dólar passou a ser o meio hegemônico de negociação entre países. Ele analisa quais seriam as consequências políticas e econômicas de a moeda americana perder protagonismo global.
In a unique and personal exploration of the game and fish laws in Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi from the Progressive Era to the 1930s, Julia Brock offers an innovative history of hunting in the New South. The implementation of conservation laws made significant strides in protecting endangered wildlife species, but it also disrupted traditional hunting practices and livelihoods, particularly among African Americans and poor whites. Closed Seasons: The Transformation of Hunting in the Modern South (UNC Press, 2025) highlights how hunting and fishing regulations were relatively rare in the nineteenth century, but the emerging conservation movement and the rise of a regional "sportsman" identity at the turn of the twentieth century eventually led to the adoption of state-level laws. Once passed, however, these laws were plagued by obstacles, including insufficient funding and enforcement. Brock traces the dizzying array of factors—propaganda, racial tensions, organizational activism, and federal involvement—that led to effective game and fish laws in the South. Host Byline: Craig Gill is a writer, researcher and historian based in Vancouver, BC. He is the author of Caddying on the Color Line, a history of African American golf caddies in the U.S. South.

Historians have thoroughly documented the vast devastation of the Civil War. In the attention they have paid to aspects of that destruction, however, one of the most obvious ramifications appears routinely overlooked—Confederate widowhood. Dr. Jennifer Lynn Gross's Sisterhood of the Lost Cause: Confederate Widows in the New South (LSU Press, 2025) helps rectify that historical omission by supplying a sweeping analysis of women whose husbands perished in the war. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Host Landry Signé and Dr. Karim El Aynaoui, executive president of the Policy Center for the New South, discuss the rapid shift toward transactional relationships between countries in the South and North that may prove difficult for less stable countries in the New South to navigate. Macroeconomic stability and independent monetary policy are fundamental, he says, and countries must create their own specialized strategies for economic growth.

Le pétrole, le charbon et le gaz proviennent de la décomposition, sur des millions d'années, des forêts et des micro-organismes qui couvraient la planète. Depuis plus de 150 ans, nous les exploitons sans relâche pour alimenter notre électricité, nos transports et notre agriculture. Mais les gisements les plus accessibles et rentables s'épuisent, tandis que leur combustion libère des gaz à effet de serre perturbant notre climat. Il est donc temps, malgré les résistances comme celles de Donald Trump, de nous désintoxiquer. Mais comment y parvenir ? Donald Trump a signé mardi des décrets, entourés de mineurs en tenue de chantier, destinés à « doper » l'extraction de charbon aux États-Unis. Ces textes, ratifiés par le président, prévoient de lever les barrières réglementaires à l'extraction de charbon, et de suspendre les fermetures de nombreuses centrales à charbon pour « plus que doubler » leur production d'électricité, notamment pour répondre à l'essor de l'intelligence artificielle. Nous parlons de notre dépendance aux énergies fossiles avec Francis Perrin, directeur de recherches à l'IRIS (l'Institut des relations internationales et stratégiques) et chercheur associé au Policy Center for the New South, un centre de réflexion basé à Rabat, au Maroc.Puis, nous vous emmenons en Écosse, où l'an dernier la production de pétrole en mer du Nord a atteint son plus bas niveau depuis les années 70. Cependant, les projets d'énergies renouvelables, notamment dans l'éolien, peinent à se concrétiser. La fermeture de la raffinerie de Grangemouth cet été suscite des inquiétudes, avec des salariés espérant une reconversion vers la recherche ou la production de carburants verts. La transition énergétique met en péril les emplois et l'économie de toute la région. Reportage de Thomas Harms.Musique diffusée pendant l'émission : Franz Ferdinand – Build it up

Questionado sobre o risco de uma recessão na maior economia do mundo, Donald Trump não respondeu nem que sim nem que não, mas afirmou: "eu odeio prever coisas assim. Há um período de transição porque o que estamos fazendo é muito grande. Estamos trazendo riqueza de volta para a América. Isso é algo grande". A entrevista do presidente dos EUA foi ao ar no domingo e derrubou mercados no início da semana. Na terça-feira, 100 chefes de grandes empresas americanas pediram uma reunião com Trump. Na mesa, cobraram maior previsibilidade da política econômica dos EUA, país que trava uma batalha com parceiros comerciais ao redor do planeta. A cobrança ao presidente dos EUA acontece após 50 dias de idas e vindas sobre quanto – e quando – os EUA cobrariam de tarifa em relação às importações de aço e alumínio. A medida, que entrou em vigor na quarta-feira (12), atinge em cheio o setor siderúrgico de grandes parceiros comerciais, incluindo o Brasil. Para falar sobre o atual momento da economia americana, Natuza Nery conversa com Otaviano Canuto, membro sênior do Policy Center for the New South e professor na Universidade George Washington. Canuto, que foi vice-presidente do Banco Mundial e diretor executivo no FMI, analisa quais os riscos de uma recessão, avalia os efeitos para a economia global e explica os motivos que levaram os ânimos com o presidente dos EUA mudarem.
My guest this week is Tim Stafford, who joins me to celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of the best loved and most influential albums in bluegrass.'JD Crowe & The New South' was recorded in January 1975 and released in August the same year. Tim joins me to chat about what makes it such a milestone record in bluegrass, despite it not really being a bluegrass album at all in some ways. We chat about the musicians who made it so special, including the rhythmic magic Tony Rice and JD Crowe had; why Ricky Skaggs is potentially the greatest tenor singer in bluegrass; why you it's important not to underestimate Bobby Slone's role in the band and the Jerry Douglas break on this record that was so good all three singers forgot to come back in after it!Tim also tells me why the session almost didn't happen due to Tony cutting his hand and suffering from a bad cold, plus plenty more fascinating detail about the band and the making of this record.You can see the video Tim talks about (along with the wonderful hair and shirts!) on YouTube2025 is also a big anniversary year for Tim's band Blue Highway, who turn 30 this year.

The obscure former Dutch colony of Suriname at the northern part of South America is poised to become a player on the global Bitcoin stage, that is if Dr. Jack Kruse has anything to do with it. The moves are already being made by those in a position of power inside the tiny resource-rich nation, to fully embrace Bitcoin and even incorporate it into their new constitution, with the help of Dr. Kruse. Will Greenland be Trump's Louisana Purchase, or is that reserved for the Gaza Strip? What about Canada, is it in play? The stealing of resources has always been a major component of geopolitics, but Trump has become brazen in his approach to acquiring land, either through purchase, annexation, or outright theft.

A celebrity decorator with blue hair. A single mother who advised JFK in the Oval Office. A Christian nudist with a passion for almond milk. As explored by Dr. Yves Rees in Travelling to Tomorrow: The Modern Women Who Sparked Australia's Romance with America (New South, 2024), a century ago, ten Australian women did something remarkable. Throwing convention to the wind, they headed across the Pacific to make their fortune. In doing so, they reoriented Australia towards the United States years before politicians began to lumber down the same path. For the artist Mary Cecil Allen, this meant spreading the word about American abstract expressionism. For the naturopath Alice Caporn, it meant evangelising fruit juices and salads. For the swimmer Isabel Letham, it was teaching synchronised swimming. Others imported the latest thinking in dentistry, fashion, design, economics, law, music, medicine and more. They were rebels, they were trailblazers, they were disruptors. Individually, they have extraordinary stories; together, they change the narrative of Australian history. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
