In unserer aktuellen Episode widmen wir uns (wieder einmal) einem großen Drama um die Jahrtausendwende. Monster's Ball von Marc Forster aus dem Jahr 2001, mit der Oscar prämierten Halle Berry. Wir feiern aber nicht nur die herausragende Leistung der Hauptdarstellerin, sondern schauen durchaus auch kritisch auf diesen Film, der eine Tragödie vom äußersten Rand der amerikanischen Gesellschaft erzählt und dabei auch vor viel Sentimentalität nicht zurückschreckt.

World poverty and extreme poverty worldwide are a present and dire reality and danger. According to the World Bank, about 650 million people in the world live below the extreme poverty line, defined as earning less than $2.15 per day. In the United States and other industrialized countries, living on less than $2.15 a day (absolutely, and without additional social assistance) would surely make a person homeless and starving. However, is that also the situation for those poorest 650 million in developing countries who are said to be living below this poverty line? In this Exclusive expose, DR STEVEN PAYSON, an economist at the US Department of Labor, and professor at the University of Maryland, presents an alternative economic reality. Global poverty is undoubtedly dire, distressing and calls for appropriate policy responses and generous humanitarian aid. However, as DR PAYSON, argues in his latest volume of work, Extreme Poverty in the World: How the World Bank and United Nations Measure It (Fake Economics, Exposed: Its Pervasiveness, Harmfulness, and Prevention), a new presentation of the statistic facts are required, statistics based on purchasing power parity and not on "statistic poverty porn." DR PAYSON argues that the prices actually paid by the poorest people on the planet can, in fact, be acquired and used by economists to derive more accurate measures of their actual level of well-being. "In this way," DR PAYSON maintains, "the world can have a better understanding of extreme poverty in its truest sense, and can direct assistance to where it is genuinely needed the most."

For database administrators, the term “constraints” comes up often. It refers to rules placed on what types of data can be stored in the database, and where it can be stored. Relational databases are containers that organize information into tables, columns, and rows, like a spreadsheet but more powerful, with linkages and relations between the tables. This logical organization of data led to billions in profits over the past fifty years. I spent a decade working for Oracle, one of the database heavyweight contenders, so I had a good amount of exposure to products built on both good and bad database design. Having worked on products that used minimal constraints in database design, I learned the hard way that front-line support teams must do daily trench battles against customer issues that could have been avoided by proper design. A lack of proper “constraints” on the database, or having no limits or rules, leads to a mess, a bunch of noise, that eventually turns into a jumbled heap of garbage data. The saying, “Crap in, crap out,” is used to describe this scenario. If anything can be put into the database, a problem lurks. When you go to use that data to extract reports, you can be fairly certain the data will be badly formatted and unfit for consumption. Unexpected errors spring up due to the disordered mess that has been allowed into the data tables. The result is spending a lot of time in dangerous database surgery, crafting INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements to repair the mess, and mistakes can kill a business application. Fortunately, working with software does not involve actual living things, so if you kill a database or application, people don't die. Unless of course that database or application is supporting medical procedures or critical inventory systems. Then it is very possible that the death of the database can lead to pain elsewhere. You can see where this is going. There is an obvious parallel to database management and our lives, both individually and socially. Database design is an attempt to bring order out of chaos. Ordering chaos is what most of human life is about, and because so much of our lives is about ordering chaos, it is exactly why the opening in the book of Genesis is about bringing order to chaos. This point should not be missed if you ever open your Bible to page 1 and read the first paragraph.This may seem a stretch, but the urge to create a spreadsheet, which is to bring order to chaos, has a parallel to the greatest mystery of why our universe and world exist at all. The act of “creating” is to take material and thoughts and try to give them a shape that makes sense. A painter at an easel with a blank canvas is much like the spreadsheet creator, or woodworker, or musician, or even someone trying to organize a closet-gone-wild. They start with resources in a disordered state and an idea in their mind. In creation they merge the physical with the spiritual, just as we are body and soul. The act of creation starts with an action, an idea, and organization, and that is why the saying, “Let there be light” does not refer to the sun. Whenever someone gets hung up on the sun being created on the fourth day instead of the first, I feel that this act of creation is misunderstood, as the “light” is the action of merging of physical and the spiritual, body and soul. “Light” is the first step toward ordering the chaos. There's a saying in the software world that “every product started out as a spreadsheet.” A spreadsheet is often started by someone in the office to try and make sense of what is happening in the business, or with customers, or even with something as simple as coffee machine duties. There's usually someone who is bothered by the disorder just enough to take action. The same sense of chaos that leads someone to file for running for city council is the same notion that drives an office worker to open a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets and start naming columns and entering data in rows. When the artist first touches her brush to the canvas, or when the spreadsheet creator clicks the File → New option on the menu of a Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, an act of creation is underway. All of our acts of creation are contingent on God's creation, as without gravity and matter, our spreadsheet would not be needed. We want order, because chaos becomes unbearable, and you can do three things to deal with chaos: you can fight the chaos, you can flee the chaos, or you can live in the chaos. If you choose to live in it, you may handle it in a few ways, some of which will lead you to peace or others that make you insane. The saying, “There's a spreadsheet for that” long precedes the saying “There's an app for that.” Once various entrepreneurs realized the data they were tracking had relevance to a wider audience, the spreadsheet turned into a database and then eventually a user interface is added, and suddenly you need salespeople to go forth and tell the world. In this way, a product is born. The idea is conceived in the inventor's mind and willed into existence by tools and skills. There is a “let there be light” moment followed by taking action and creating. A single spreadsheet managed by one person is not a workable solution for large problems. Once the spreadsheet creator leaves the simple shire of the spreadsheet, he or she faces numerous questions around access rights and restrictions. Updates can cause chaos without proper locks, requirements, and referential integrity. In database design these are known as constraints, which are like the castle walls controlling what data comes into the database, or like laws regarding what types of data are allowed to live in this little kingdom of data. People have become billionaires in finding ways to represent data effectively, as without organization, data is a pile of chaff that cannot even be burned for heat. Data is utterly useless without organization. Too few constraints or too many constraints both create problems. If I get started on database talk, this could be a long episode, so I'll keep this part short. I've spent a career poking around in databases and log files looking at error codes and messages. Not a very glamorous life, and I have often joked about being in “log file hell,” when a customer dumps 2 gigabytes of log output into my lap for troubleshooting. This blog/podcast could easily change from the topic of falling, recovery, and reverted faith into one about troubleshooting databases and software error codes. Why Did Peter Sink? would be about error stacks, bug fixing, and system stabilization. The interesting thing, however, is even if the topic changed from restored faith to database troubleshooting, the main message would still be around order, disorder, and re-ordering, which is what the book of Genesis and the Gospels are really all about. To deny this yearning for order results in collapse rather quickly, because if there is no desire for order, or no faith in the system, data systems can turn sour as quickly as milk. There is a kind of faith needed in a product for it to last. The data must provide a sense of order, and meaning to the users. Otherwise someone or something will replace the system or employees will just leave, if they have any means whatsoever to do so. There is faith required even in the purely material world of software and data, because in the end the users are human. But faith in a product to assist keeping order at a job or corporation is different from the kind of faith needed to order your life. Staring into chaos can be done for a long time, when times are good. Non-believers and pure materialists have obviously always been part of society, and surely they rolled their eyes at the religious nuts back in Jesus' time as much as they do today, but they are typically the fringe of society, not the center that holds all things together. The rules and need for order get sidelined when affluence and plenty seem to have solved all problems. You'll see this in business when times are good, where there is largesse and generosity, which leads to abuses and corruption. Then the recession hits and the disorder and lack of discipline is called out. Layoffs happen. Hiring is frozen. People suddenly have to justify their purpose. The comfort of good fiscal quarters leads to corruption and laziness, and when the belt gets tightened, the fringes get squeezed first. But the fringe doesn't go away. It just goes into hiding for a bit. The heart always wants to explore the fringes. Wise societies allow for this searching, leaving small openings in life open to the wanderers. Even strict nations have dedicated days for wandering and loosening the rules, because holidays like Halloween and Mardi Gras and Carnival and Purim offer release valves for rebellion and rowdiness. These festivals came out of the need to allow some pressure out of the balloon. Mount Saint Helens blew its top off because there was no escape for the pressure. Hawaiian volcanoes have lava dribble nicely out the top because the pressure is not bound up as tightly. This is the tightrope that cities have to walk. How much disorder should we allow? Towns and villages have annual festivals for drinking and staying up late, because it grants a hall pass for the standard of work and faith in something greater. This is to avoid the Mount Saint Helens type of explosion.Cities have streets or districts where vice is allowed, or at least ignored. Driving or walking on these streets can make for jaw-dropping tourism for the uninitiated. I recall driving down Hastings Avenue in Vancouver, B.C., in broad daylight, where someone was using a toilet that was just sitting on the street (no plumbing). Prostitutes in ripped fishnet stockings were seeking clients. Various lost souls smoked crack openly. Every boarded up doorway housed a body or two, apparently sleeping. It seems that all cities have this street: Prospect in Kansas City, Langstrasse in Zurich, or Hastings in Vancouver, etc. Every city has a neighborhood like this, just like every small town has a bar or house where the fringe can gather. People drive down these streets for a kind of Poverty Tour (a.k.a. Poverty Porn) of how the other half lives. These places make for a kind of living cautionary tale, like that which parents can use to cudgel children away from drugs and other bad patterns. “Do you see what happens, kid, when you do drugs?” Small towns make for interesting interactions because a full variety of vices, worldviews, and systems of belief are shoved close to one another and must interact, whereas in larger cities you can live in one area without ever touching or interacting with those different from you. In a small town, you do not have that option of isolation. The town drunk and the mayor may be in the same diner or grocery store or church. But what I'm driving at is a city or a country thing, nor a race or class or national thing. It's a human thing.The "fringe" element in small towns and cities are granted an outlet to avoid an eruption, as complete suppression results in a blast. This is same reason that sandboxes are placed outside for children rather than in the kitchen. Individuals and societies allow exploration to play out, because it's going to play out whether you allow it or not. Even the most repressed societies have rebellion in secret underworlds. But this is not due to the repression or the rules, as some would have us believe. This exploration and rebellion happens. Why? Because we are fallen creatures. We need a sandbox to play in, a development area, a place to thrash about. Just as cities cordon off a street for this exploration, database administrators create non-production environments, sometimes called “sandboxes” where any wild-child programmer can go play, break things, try on data, running through rows and flipping tables. The key thing for keeping organization is that you do not experiment with what you already know works and is running the business. You allow the skunk-works stuff over in the fringe, the development database, but never, ever in the database which puts dollars on the balance sheet. This may seem a geeky metaphor to compare to cities with their red-light districts, or to our lives with their periods of rebellion, but it is hardly different. Cities allow the inevitable rowdiness, within reason, and database designers provide a romper room, and if the city or the database admin had their way, they would prefer to have as little of this disorder as possible. Yet it's allowed, because to completely stifle all experimentation and rebellion leads to the spread of mayhem to the entire city. In businesses, the rebel programmer forces will just start their own shadow IT. Users and party-seekers stop asking for permission altogether. God allows us some rope, to wander and explore, otherwise we may never learn what the rules are for in the first place. The forgiveness of sins is not a get out of jail free card so much as it's an understanding and loving Father who knows of our need to seek out the dragon. God is not the rigid Pharisee, who is like a city administrator that cracks down on every last jaywalker in the street, or the database administrator that allows no access and no data for anyone and kills all creativity. He is the loving Father that prefers we stayed but knows we'll stray, and when we return from our dragon-quest beaten and broken, he will not even say, “I told you so.” That is the Father of the New Covenant. The words of Jesus speak of this type of Father, and this is Our Father, meaning yours and mine and everyone else's. For some reason unknown to us, God allows sin. This is the perhaps the most confusing thing of all about the Creator. This drives many away from belief because we know sin is the cause of suffering, so how can it be allowed? Yet we can see the same pattern in our world happening all the time, which seems to confirm that we are indeed made in the image and likeness of God. When we try to bring order, we also allow the fringe, and just as the city allows a small red light district in order to preserve a wider peace and order. The IT department grants a corner for chaos so that the business can operate and maybe benefit from creative ideas that come out of the fringe. In all cases, good things can come out of the allowance for rebellion. The rebirth of a city, a business, or a person can happen out of this model. Beautiful things can come from those drifters and dreamers, as long as they don't get stuck there forever in despair. The key is to grow, to learn, to come back, and with God, the key is always to surrender, and rather than defeat the dragon, you accept self-defeat, you accept the mystery, and God defeats the dragon for you.

why are rich people so obsessed with using working class people as entertainment? How does social media fuel our voyeuristic gaze on those experiencing poverty? And why are the upper classes still fetishising the poor? From competition prizes that pay off your energy bills to influencers that build their entire brands on 'thrifty' tips to survive the cost of living crisis; we're living in a dystopian nightmare. Instead of real, tangible advice that would ease the increase of price in essentially everything needed to survive, the media has decided to turn our current crisis into poverty porn. This week on the podcast, we're discussing why and how the medias attempts to 'help' or 'spotlight' working class people so often fall short.

Photography! Poverty Porn! Drawing in Space! Spiderwebs! Field Pod sits down with Field Projects current resident Stacy Kranitz for a talk about her take on documentary photography as a medium best used to question the truth of & in the image. Photographers constantly have to reckon with subjectivity. Stacy explains the ways she has pushed against the medium in her new book AS IT WAS GIVE(N) TO ME, a compilation based on over 12 years spent photographing the community living in the heartland of Appalachia. Incorporating pressed plants, topographic drawings, and preserved spiderwebs alongside her photography and voices drawn from a local newspaper column, Kranitz weaves a complex narrative that opens the history of Appalachia to the reader. Through these juxtapositions of text, image, and drawing a narrative of everyday life emerges in the wake of the systemic capitalist oppression that characterizes this region of the USA. Before this exciting conversation, Field Projects Co-Directors Jacob Rhodes and Kris Racaniello chat about the residency program and open call process. They talk the gallery/gallerist class system, the origins of Field Projects and the Open Call process, and MONEY and survival in contemporary art.

Despite various strides made by the global development sector in reforming its communication, humanitarian campaigns still (too) often contain racial stereotypes, dehumanizing images and colonial narratives. In our Beyond Poverty Porn series, which we make together with Emiel Martens and Wouter Oomen from the Expertise Centre Humanitarian Communication (HuCom), we open up the conversation about ethical, respectful, and inclusive communication in and on global development. In short episodes of about 15 minutes each, Martens and Oomen will take a critical look at trending genres within the field of humanitarian communication. Following their critique on celebrity humanitarianism in the previous storycast, in this episode they zoom in on the popular genre of the individual changemaker. While they see the value of the shift in agency that changemaker stories seem to represent, they do find several issues with the 'individual solutions to structural problems' habit of these campaigns.

Following their general critique on the 'new' approach of hope-based communications in the previous storycast, they now zoom in on the challenges of celebrity humanitarianism - i.e. celebrity involvement in humanitarian issues and the media coverage that this creates. They do so by first discussing the colonial tradition of white saviorism and then by approaching the celebrity humanitarian as a white savior who unavoidably but problematically takes center stage in stories of the suffering of global Others.Music credit: Shapes in the Clouds on Hooksounds

Kirsty Mackay is an photographic artist, educator, activist and filmmaker whose research-led documentary practice highlights social issues surrounding gender, class and discrimination. She has an MA in Documentary photography from University of South Wales, Newport.Her current book project The Fish That Never Swam, considers class and discrimination against working-class people. Combining first-person narratives with photographs, it takes Glasgow as a case study, looking at the root causes of the city's poor health outcomes and lower life expectancy. Examining the relationship between the environment, government policy, historical trauma, and public health, it shifts the emphasis from individual life style choices to the effects that political policies have on our bodies. The book will be published in October 2021.Kirsty's first book, self-published in 2017, is My Favourite Colour Was Yellow which challenges the stereotypes of girlhood. Kirsty set out to photograph girls with their pink possessions as a way to understand how this one colour has become dominant. Working over a five year period, making portraits of the girls in their bedrooms and on the high street, Kirsty has created a document of this time for girls growing up in the UK. After a period of documenting Kirsty began to probe deeper and the title of the book My Favourite Colour Was Yellow reflects the theme at the heart of the book - a lack of choice.Kirsty's work has been exhibited internationally, most recently in the Facing Britain group show at the Museum Goch, Germany, an observation of British Documentary Photography since the 60's alongside works by Martin Parr, Anna Fox & David Hurn. On episode 158, Kirsty discusses, among other things:‘The Glasgow Effect' Growing up feeling she could do anything‘Poverty Porn'‘Managed Decline'‘Analysis after the event'The ACE test How just existing as a woman in photography puts some men's noses out of jointComing across misogyny in photographyCalling herself an activistBeing reliant on other people's stories Her foray into videoHow class needs to be included in the call for diversity Website | Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | New book“When I show some people my pictures they say ‘you're not showing enough.' And what I feel I'm fighting against is a middle-class viewpoint. There's prejudice involved in that of how some middle-class people see working-class people and it fits with that prejudice to portray people as victims…”

What is poverty porn? Thanks for asking!Poverty porn is a provocative term of criticism which looks at how poor people and their living situations are portrayed in films, on television or on social media.The term became more widespread after the release of Slumdog Millionaire in the late 2000s. The Oscar-winning film tells the story of a young boy who grew up in the slums of Mumbai and is close to winning ₹20 million on a TV quiz show.Despite the film’s massive success, there were debates about whether it was poverty porn. Some suggested director Danny Boyle created it for a white audience looking for images of deprivation in a faraway setting.What’s the link with porn then? But is it really such a bad thing? Can you have poverty porn in Western countries too?

Qu'est-ce que le poverty porn ? Merci d'avoir posé la question ! On peut traduire “poverty porn” par “pornographie de la misère”. Une expression provocante pour dénoncer la manière dont est représentée la pauvreté, dans les films, à la télévision, ou sur les réseaux sociaux. L'expression semble devenir populaire à l'occasion de la sortie de "Slumdog Millionaire" en 2009. Le film oscarisé raconte l'histoire d'un jeune qui a grandi dans la misère des bidonvilles en Inde et qui est sur le point de remporter une somme d'argent astronomique dans un jeu télé. Ce film est un grand succès, il gagne de nombreux Oscars, mais certains le critiquent amèrement : son réalisateur Danny Boyle l'aurait réalisé pour un public blanc, en quête d'exotisme et de privation. Bref, il aurait fait du “Poverty Porn”. Pourquoi "porn" ? Est-ce que ça part vraiment d'une mauvaise intention ? Est-ce qu'on fait du poverty porn avec la pauvreté présente dans nos propres pays ? Ecoutez la suite dans cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez". Un podcast écrit et réalisé par Quentin Tenaud. A écouter aussi : Qu'est-ce que le volontourisme ? Qu'est-ce que l'altruisme efficace ? Qu'est-ce qu'un transfuge de classe ? Vous pouvez réagir à cet épisode sur notre page Twitter. Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

So this week, we were planning to publish an open conversation between Soleil Ho and Justin Phillips about crimes against Asian people, from the March 16 Atlanta shootings, to high profile violent incidents in the Bay Area captured on video that often showed Black aggressors. And we’re going to be honest: we weren’t quite sure how to put our feelings into words. We had recorded one version of this episode, but we realized we needed more time to process so we’re going to take another week. So in the meantime, we would love to hear from you: What do you make of all this — and how do we end it? You can send us your responses by sending us a voice recording to extraspicy@sfchronicle.com, or you can also leave us a voicemail at 415-777-6156. We really hope to hear from you, and we look forward to including your thoughts on next week’s episode. For now, we want to leave you with a longer version of one of our favorite episodes from Season 1. Gabriela Alemán of the Mission Meals Coalition and Ashley Rahimi Syed of SF Community Fridge teamed up to bring a fridge stocked with fresh food to San Francisco’s Mission District amid the pandemic. They talk about protecting the dignity of those they serve, and mitigating the “performative” aspect of some of the giving.

Introduction Queen For A Day was a popular radio and TV program that ran for 20 years, starting in 1945. The “contestants” were women who would tell their tales of woe, often crying in the process, hoping to persuade the audience that their plight was worse than the others, thus deserving of the cash and other prizes. Sarcastically referred to as “Poverty Porn”, Queen For A Day was not only a precursor to future TV giveaway shows, it unwittingly preceded the creation of the victim hierarchy, wherein various identity groups vie with one another to claim being the worst off, therefore winning the title of being the most deserving. Instead of the Biggest Loser being about the person who was disciplined enough to lose the most weight, this version of the Biggest Loser is exactly that; the one who has lost the most and has not come up with a fix somehow winds up being the biggest winner. That is the subject of today’s 10-minute episode. Continuing In QFA, female contestants worked to convince the audience their tale of woe was the worst, and therefore more deserving, than the others who were also pouring forth their stories. All while adding as much drama as possible in the hopes of convincing the studio audience. The audience did not vote, as in one vote per person; an “Applause Meter” was used. The woman with the loudest response won. Not unlike today, where the groups that make the most noise, peaceful or not, are considered by many as the most deserving. Sponsors also won. The show was very popular for many years, giving sponsors of QFA widespread exposure for their products, many of which were offered as prizes. The radio and television networks, including ABC and NBC were also big winners. The show hosts, notably Jack Bailey, and the staff were also winners. So, Will, were there losers? Yes, the contestants, the audience, and most of all the so-called winner. The winner, to the musical accompaniment of "Pomp and Circumstance", would be draped in a sable-trimmed red velvet robe, given a glittering jeweled crown to wear, placed on a velvet-upholstered throne, and handed a dozen long-stemmed roses to hold while her list of prizes was announced. Even if we do not recognize the name of the celebration tune, we have all heard it, likely many times. This is the traditional song played during graduations, graduations being a celebration of years of achievement. Queen For A Day used it to celebrate the person for whom the audience made the loudest noise in support of her tale of woe, her applause-seeking hand wringing and tales of misery. Yes, I am being critical of the show, but more to the point I am being critical of the Queen For A Day philosophy too many of us, and too many politicians and other so called leaders, have developed and are pushing on our society today. QFA itself had critics. “Veteran television writer Mark Evanier has called the program ‘one of the most ghastly shows ever produced.’ He further described it as ‘tasteless, demeaning to women, demeaning to anyone who watched it, cheap, insulting and utterly degrading to the human spirit.’" -Wikipedia. I am being critical of today’s growing Queen For A Day philosophy. Queen For a Day was all about rewarding being down and out, and made that into a contest, celebrating the woman who best convinced the audience to respond to her situation and drama with the most raucous applause. Applause? Yes, applause. Tales of tough times and crying were rewarded with applause, prizes and a major feel-good celebration. QFA did not even mention job training or any form of self-reliance. None of the prizes had anything to do with a daycare award if the lady needed that to go to work. And nothing was ever anyone’s fault; they were a parade of victims, each hoping to be seen as the biggest victim. The final cruelty was playing the graduation song for the winner as she donned a robe and a crown. Today’s Key point: Isn’t that exactly what we are ...
The colonial relationships and attitudes can clearly be recognised in the communications of international aid organisations. Like during the colonial times on 'expedition' to hike in Nepal. Cycle in Tanzania. Showing white saviourism when celebrities and ambassadors are visiting projects abroad emphasizing the suffering 'other'. Simulating misery of non-West countries by locking yourself up in a cage, painting faces of celebrities as if they have Ebola or organizing a sleap over party for children to simulate a night in a slum, with an actual giraffe.We all know these modern day campaigns. What do they have in common? The portrayal of the donor, ambassador, participant or traveller as a helper is central to all these problematic genres. They are always placed on a pedestal, while the people being helped seem to be of secondary importance. This is not only painful, but it also undermines the core values that should underpin development aid argue media scholars Emiel Martens & Wouter Oomen in a recent article on OneWorld.nl later published in English on ZAM Magazine.Emiel Martens and Wouter Oomen are media scholars respectively at the University of Amsterdam and the University of Utrecht. They are both part of the Expertise Centre Humanitarian Communicaton who's aim is to make non-profits aware of the importance of good communication and to rebuke them when they produce stereotypical or other unethical images. In the past 5 years they have awarded prizes for the best and worst campaigns of Dutch development organisations.

For Episode 76, I get on a call with Tadpatri Talkies, a shitposty youtube channel that blew up, thanks to their work on a satirical rap album "Bhookh", and while responding the direction of contemporary hip-hop in the country, with Divine and Naezy at the helm of the culture - came up with some of the best commentaries on poverty porn that exists in the country, and ended up parodying a rap scene that was only emerging in the country. We talk about the album, class critique and discuss Gully Boy for a brief moment.

Spec and her pals Tacles and A Woodpigeon are off on an increble adventure into the wilderness of deprived areas of society. Gasp in awe as they realise that a vocal elite tailor prevailaing narratives about a marginalised underclass to maintain the status quo. Quivver in fear as superficial characteristics are utilised to tar swathes of society with reductive, pernicious reputations, degrading their perceived humanity and associated rights. Cower in despair as they realise that selfishness and lies are utilised to maintain the comfort of an increasingly deluded and increasingly small number of people! Keep on listening to the end for some whimsical, self referencial fun!
In der ersten Folge des Jahres 2020 nehmen wir uns das Thema "White Saviorism" (auch: "White Saviourism") vor. Viel besprochen in unserer Social Media Blase, finden wir, es kann nicht schaden uns diesem vielschichtigen und komplexen Thema nochmal anzunehmen. Vor Weihnachten ist es immer besonders oft zu sehen: nicht-weiße Menschen, meist Kinder, die mit traurigen Augen von Plakatwänden blicken und nur darauf warten, dass sich die wohlhabenden Menschen hier bei uns in Europa dazu erbarmen, sie mit Spenden aus ihrem "Elend zu erlösen". Stefanie Giesinger allen voran hat das Thema neu aufgebracht, als sie mit ihren Instagram Stories von der Seite @nowhitesaviors aufgegriffen wurde, aber auch Carmen Kroll alias Carmushka, Hatice Schmidt oder Kollegah haben uns in den letzten Wochen wieder mal eindrucksvoll vorgemacht, wie die Darstellung ihrer wahrscheinlich gut gemeinten Hilfe ein veraltetes, durch "Poverty Porn" und einen eurozentrisches, durch Kolonialgeschichte geprägtes Bild des afrikanischen Kontinents reproduziert. Wie dieses Bild entstanden ist, was Filme wie "The Green Book", "The Blind Side" oder auch "Hidden Figures" und z.B. die katholische Kirche mit White Saviorism zutun haben und warum ihr euch alle einen Skit aus Seth Meyers' Late Night Show ansehen solltet, erfahrt ihr in diese Folge.

Welcome to the very 1st Episode of Black Looks Green on Me. In this episode, we take a look at common types of poverty porn and how to avoid that trap. Poverty porn is when any type of media exploits the poor’s condition in order to generate enough sympathy to sell you something or to raise money. They do this by oversimplifying poverty with an image or short videos that not only paint incomplete pictures but demoralizes those in need. At the end of the day, guilt and pity will lose their effectiveness over time as we get desensitized to poverty porn. So the most important thing we can do is to help equip and empower those that need help to become agents of change rather than empowering ourselves, celebrity ambassadors and the middle men (non-profit organizations.)

In episode 111, Kestrel welcomes Aditi Mayer, the creative behind ADIMAY, to the show. Aditi explores the crossroads of artistic expression and social action on ADIMAY, and has a focus on style, sustainability, and social politics. "I think the way we look at sustainable fashion now - it's been a response. So, sustainable fashion exists because the industry is inherently broken, and we could argue that fast fashion has profited off the normalization of exploitation. As we go forward, I think if we work toward a more just industry, that's inherently going to change the definition of sustainability too. It's tied with change, it's tied with being critical about how the industry currently stands - so, that's a reflection of who we are as individuals, but also where we stand in larger systems." -Aditi Mayer, founder of ADIMAY In this episode, Aditi shares a bit of her personal backstory, and how she became interested in photography as a form of escapism, and then fused it with her interests in style and sustainability. She shares a powerful experience from the first "sustainable fashion event" she attended, and how it revealed to her a lot of realities of race, class and privilege in the industry. "I definitely realized that fashion at large is really a microcosm of larger systems of inequality." Kestrel and Aditi explore three articles in particular, that are featured on ADIMAY, that speak to: ethics vs aesthetics, women of color's representation (and lack of) in sustainable fashion, and the rise of the activist tee. The below thoughts, ideas + organizations were brought up in this chat: Poverty Porn + the Western Savior Complex, explored more in Aditi's article, "Western Savior Complex In Artisan Led Fashion" "Making Sustainable Sexy Do We Market Aesthetics or Ethics?", article from ADIMAY Dominique Drakeford + Melanin & Sustainable Style, listen to our our show with Dominique here > "Women Of Color In Sustainable Fashion: Why The Stakes Are Higher", article from ADIMAY "The Movement, Commodified: The Rise Of (Pseudo) Activism", article from ADIMAY Sponsor: This Conscious Chatter episode is brought to you by GlobeIn. **Use promo code CONSCIOUSCHATTER for 25% OFF your first Artisan Box with any Premium Artisan Box subscription.

To start it off, Kurt has been badgering Andrew for weeks to catch Good Time (SPOILERS!) and it finally made its way to Minneapolis; it’s dy-no-mite! Next up (not) a side project from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Wind River (SPOILERS!) which very much takes a lot of its cues from director Taylor Sheridan’s other screenplays, Hell or High Water and Sicario is one of the year’s best. Also, Renner and Olsen knock it out of the national park. Lastly, in terms of theatrical releases, a smaller production starring Ben Mendohlson and Rooney Mara that is based off of a two-act play is quite riveting and discussion-worthy. Check out our talk on Una when you get a chance. Oh, and if you haven’t heard, “Game of Thrones” season 7 has ended… in a big way. Due to listener requests, we engage. The Watch List hits every avenue. We’ve got rape fallout in the 50s, angry trucks, multiple Jeff Daniels, multiple Noomi Rapace, snipers and a singing and dancing Roy Scheider… and a lot more. As always, please join the conversation by leaving your own thoughts in the comment section below and again, thanks for listening! We’re now available on Google Play!

original In May 2015 the mayor of the City of Blacktown, Stephen Bali, denounced the SBS documentary series Struggle Street – produced in the Blacktown suburb of Mount Druitt – labelling it as “public funded poverty porn” and staging a creative protest which saw a dozen garbage trucks blockade the broadcaster’s head offices. The second series of Struggle Street will be filmed in Queensland and Victoria in 2016, and there has already been significant backlash to the announced plans. While poverty porn is a term used to describe media that appears to exploit impoverished communities and individuals for entertainment, supporters of shows such as Struggle Street argue that the genre can generate sympathy, engagement and ultimately have a positive effect on the community. Dallas Rogers spoke with Deb Warr, Associate Professor from the McCaughey Centre for Community Wellbeing at the University of Melbourne, about the role the media plays in creating narratives around poverty and the importance of varied methods of engagement with impoverished communities.
