School board races across Pennsylvania are more expensive and contentious than ever before. We sit down with Joshua Levinson of the East Penn School District in Lehigh County. He shares what he is hearing in the final days of this historic campaign and what it might mean for next November. 

This week, Dr. Eric Crawford, a Gullah/Geechee scholar and Associate Professor of Musicology at Claflin University in Orangeburg, joins us to talk about Gullah culture and about editing a second edition of the late Dr. Wilbur Cross' book, Gullah Culture in America (Blair, 2022).The book chronicles the history and culture of the Gullah people, African Americans who live in the Lowcountry region of the American South, telling the story of the arrival of enslaved West Africans to the sea islands of South Carolina and Georgia; the melding of their African cultures, which created distinct creole language, cuisine, traditions, and arts; and the establishment of the Penn School, dedicated to education and support of the Gullah freedmen following the Civil War.

Towne founded Penn School in 1862 that was the first facility providing African Americans with a secondary education. Eventually it served as a normal school, training Black teachers to serve throughout South Carolina.

The campus of the former Penn School, one of the nation's first schools for formerly enslaved people, is one of the most significant African American institutions in existence today. This historic and cultural institution is a National Historic Landmark District and comprises two of the four sites in Reconstruction Era National Park.

I apologize for the breaks in my recording, the sound in the YouTube videos cut off so I just clipped it out and put a link to the video in the description for you to see! I will be recording shorter videos to analyze the material within the video since the sound did not come through on this recording. Still new to this software but progress is the pursuit of perfection. I hope you remain curious throughout the podcast and engage by commenting or messaging me to start making a difference on future generations and not pass our problems on to them.

We have been carrying the weight of ancient labels, generation after generation and it seems to be getting heavier. We are creating new problems as time goes on because we are constantly creating a problem, calling it a solution, in order to solve another problem. Just because a problem disappears it does not mean it's been solved, its just hiding behind the new problem which you thought was a solution. Every social justice reform is demanding responsibility, love, acceptance and equality. Ironically their plan does not promote equality of responsibility, love and acceptance. If you do not follow exactly what they say you will be ridiculed and labeled as a terrible person. I think anyone who is currently part of these current reforms should at least consider thinking about the possible outcome if this is achieved. Are you willing to bear the weight that you may be responsible for someone else oppression just because they are different? Will forcing kids to believe what you believe make your life any better? Let kids be kids and leave the world problems to the adults. Adults need to let go of our deep emotional convictions and understand we may be wrong. You have your way, I have my way, but as to the right or only way, it doesn't exist.

This is the first episode in a series of discussions that will feature Kristen R. Ghodsee with various guests reflecting on Alexandra Kollontai's 1923 essay: "Make Way for Winged Eros: A Letter to Working Youth." Kristen Ghodsee's guest this week is the artist and Penn School of Design grad student, Elisheva Levy.In this essay, Kollontai works out her theories of how love and sexuality will be superior under socialism as compared to the bourgeois capitalist past. She provides a Marxist history of love and sex as ideals that change depending on how the ruling class uses them to promote their own economic interests. It is an essential essay in terms of thinking about the intersections of sexuality and political economy, and it was an important inspiration for Ghodsee's 2018 book: Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism: And Other Arguments for Economic Independence. In this episode, Elisheva Levy discusses her research project, "Beyond Monogamous Architecture" in relation to Kollontai's essay.FYI - the intro music is a Russian version of The Internationale.www.kristenghodsee.com

As sea levels rise, nuisance flooding is the first wave of assault on coastal cities. Can we protect our coasts from inundation, or is retreat inevitable? --- Jeff Goodell, author of the New York Times award-winning book, The Water Will Come: Rising Seas, Sinking Cities, and the Remaking of the Civilized World, talks about the impact of rising seas on America’s coastal centers in the decades to come. Will innovative engineering allow cities and towns to be protected, and at what cost? Or, will the seas prevail, leaving some areas abandoned? Billy Fleming, research director for the Ian L. McHarg Center at the Penn School of Design and an expert on climate adaptation planning, weighs in as well. The U.S. government estimates that sea levels will rise by two feet by the middle of this century due to a warming climate. Already the impact of higher water is being felt in points around the country. In many coastal communities, nuisance flooding has become the predictable norm. Miami Beach is spending half a billion dollars to elevate roads and install pumps in an effort to stay dry. And Houston, New York, and New Orleans, all cities that are just feet above sea level, have recently seen unprecedented and devastating flooding. Goodell and Fleming look at the political and human costs of taking action. Jeff Goodell is a contributing editor with Rolling Stone magazine, where his writing focuses on environmental and climate issues. Last year he published his sixth book, The Water Will Come: Rising Seas, Sinking Cities, and the Remaking of the Civilized World, which earned a Critics’ Top Book award from the New York Times. Billy Fleming is research director for the Ian L. McHarg Center at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Design. His research focuses on climate adaptation planning along the U.S. coast.

Mick Jagger, meet Jack Hayford. These are the worlds spanned by musician and pastor Jimi Calhoun, who uses his experiences in both arenas to help readers dissect racial relation issues. Tonight the Unstoppable Frankie Picasso is joined by Pastor Jimi Calhoun, author of "A Story of Rhythm and Grace: What the Church Can Learn from Rock and Roll about Healing the Racial Divide". Before becoming a pastor, Calhoun played bass for major recording acts and performed on stage with prominent artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Etta James, Hank Williams Jr., John Lennon, and Elton John. In his book, Jimi combines colorful illustrations from the rock-and-roll world with stories from his life as a pastor to show how he has succeeded as a bridge builder between cultures. As he interweaves personal stories with reflections on race, Calhoun challenges Christians (and dare I say others) to reach out for racial healing and reconciliation and offers hope for racial harmony in the church and in the broader culture. Tonight is a very special 90 minute Show. Please join in along with my panel of experts as we discuss the topic of Church, Religeon, race and how we can heal the past and pave way for a racial harmony.
