hen we think of prison, we often focus on the criminal aspect of the institution. These individuals broke the law and are being punished for doing so. But the punishment, as intended, was to be removed from society for a predefined amount of time, and then, as part of your agreement, you are released back into society. But, while in prison, many prisoners are dehumanized and receive treatment that far exceeds their actual sentence. Much of this is due, primarily, to the physical and psychological designs of the prisons themselves. Humane and dignified treatment was never part of the equation, and when you throw in a worldwide pandemic, how does a facility meant to confine and control people, in small dehumanizing spaces, properly care for those in its charge? On this episode of Systemic our host, Dan Kimbrough, speaks with Professor Brittany Friedman, a sociologist from the University of Southern California about the effects of COVID-19 within our prison system. Professor Friedman discusses the design flaws of the US prison system and how they were exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Professor Friedman shares how prisons were never meant to be healthcare facilities and how their punitive culture made containing the virus nearly impossible. She argues the roots of mass incarceration lie in slavery and calls for a complete reimagining of how we address harm in society. This episode of Systemic is sponsored by The Black Equity Coalition. The Black Equity Coalition is a group of experts from diverse fields working tirelessly to address institutional racism and structural impediments that continue to plague Black, undervalued, and underserved communities. Initially focused on responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coalition has committed to working towards racial and health equity beyond the pandemic's eventual end by engaging the disparities in the five social determinants of health for the underserved (Our necessary means of health and survival). Through the collective efforts of physicians, researchers, epidemiologists, public health and health care practitioners, social scientists, community funders, and government officials, the Black Equity Coalition is dedicated to ensuring that vulnerable populations have access to health, well-being, and economic stability.

San Francisco, beset by crime and homelessness, is embracing a new project called Reimagining Public Safety, an initiative run by the Policing Project at NYU School of Law. Mayor London Breed announced the new program with Barry Friedman, an NYU professor who cofounded the Policing Project. KCBS Radio's Doug Sovern spoke with Professor Friedman for more on this story.

Most people don't think of economics as having a religious basis, and may question whether religion affects people's views of economic issues. But in his recent book, 'Religion and the Rise of Capitalism,' our guest on EconoFact Chats this week, Professor Benjamin Friedman of Harvard University, discusses the influence of religion on economics, including how the ideas of the Social Gospel and the Gospel of Wealth played a role in the development of American economic thinking in the late 19th century, how religious thinking influenced people's views of economic policy in the 20th century, and how that influence continues to the present day. Professor Friedman is the William Joseph Maier Professor of Political Economy at Harvard University. He has authored over 170 scholarly articles, and written or edited a dozen books, including The Moral Consequences of Economic Growth.

Professor Friedman describes his upbringing in Louisville, Kentucky, including the influences of his father and the family business as well as a special English teacher's contributions to his ability to write well. He recounts his introduction to economics as a Harvard graduate, his gravitating toward economics at Cambridge University, and his early and continuing interest in macroeconomics. He discusses the changing controversies relating to monetary and fiscal policy. Professor Friedman highlights how his early experiences at Morgan Stanley influenced his understanding of the bond market's role in the macroeconomy. Recognizing the limited literature on why economic growth is important, Professor Friedman decided to write The Moral Consequences of Economic Growth. His latest book is Religion and the Rise of Capitalism.

Professors Scott Friedman and Neil Henderson join the Surfers (including the returning Stephen Harrison) to discuss some truly exciting advances in advanced NASH omics, including work on mRNA/CAR-T anti-fibrotic therapies. There is not enough room to capture this entire conversation in a summary. It's a lot, but really eye-opening and exciting. Take the time to listen to the entire episode, even if in bite-sized pieces.This episode starts with bonhomie and humor as the group congratulates Professor Friedman on being honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the faculty at Mt. Sinai, and then listens as Professor Henderson relates one of the most truly unique "one thing you wouldn't know about me if I didn't tell you" in the history of the podcast.The science portion of the podcast starts with Scott discussing a fantastic series of advances in basic science, wherein researchers have begun to evaluate CAR-T therapy, which was originally developed to treat lymphomas and other blood dyscrasias, to attack the surfaces of fibrogenic cells in the liver (MSK, New York) or, separately, the heart (University of Penn). Today, we create CAR-T cells by taking cells from the diseased patient, re-engineering them and injecting them back into the patient. This approach  is associated with high rates of Level 3+ cytokine response syndrome (CRS). It has also been found to leave this engineered CAR-T material in the patient's system for at least a decade after therapy.Scott goes on to explain how the Epstein lab at Penn integrated the CAR-T strategy with mRNA, the protein behind the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna DOVD-19 vaccines, to create a vaccine that can reprogram cells within the body to replicate the CAR-T effect. Scott notes that so far, this has only been reported in mouse models, and that there are many major issues to resolve before we know it will be safe and effective in humans. It is a staggering  breakthrough nonetheless.After a couple of questions, the group turns to Neil, who points out that this kind of finding can help "make precision medicine a reality," in part because it creates the possibility we can target multimodal therapy at the precise location it is needed. Stephen suggests that the ideal place for this kind of therapy might be in a late-stage patient where we can regress fibrosis and, once the liver is better able to function, resort to a more metabolic therapy. Scott suggests how helpful it would be to develop insight into how different types of cells respond to different medication, which shifts the conversation  toward the broader topic of single-cell genomics, and specifically, the growing utility of spatial transcriptomics in these situations. Neil provides a description of the benefits of spatial transcriptomics, and then takes the group back  through a history of omic technology.Jörn Schattenberg asks what these techniques have taught us about variability between patients. Neil discusses the congruence of individual samples.  Jörn points out this would mean that we can develop robust therapies targeted at a cell type. Scott suggests that we can use these insights to standardize clinical trials, to target the specific patients with the genetic targets most likely to respond  -- a large step on the path to personalized precision therapy.In response to a question from Louise Campbell about sources for liver tissue, Neil asks for study purposes, "What is a normal human liver?" One of his major sources of tissue  are distal liver sites from patients with colorectal cancer. However, even if these are cancer free, thy could be affected by chemotherapy.As discussion winds down, the group comes to focus on the issue of why and how the liver regenerates. It raises fascinating questions: why does it not seem to "over-regenerate?" Are the regenerated cells different from pre-injury cells, and if so, how?

In the final episode of AIAC Talk for the year, Will is joined by AIAC founder and editor Sean Jacobs for a conversation with Steven Friedman; a South African newspaper columnist, former trade unionist, and political scientist who specializes in the study of democracy. Professor Friedman is the author of two new books reflecting on South Africa's tortured past and its dysfunctional present, namely Prisoners of the Past—South African Democracy and the Legacy of Minority Rule, as well as One Virus, Two Countries: What COVID-19 Tells Us About South Africa. Why has South Africa been unable to implement wealth distribution for the masses despite its transition to a robust, liberal democracy? In the throes of a political impasse, which social forces are capable of bringing about change? Or is a further slide to disorder more likely?

On several occasions over the several months, Professor Eitan Friedman has publicly denounced the government’s policy of lockdowns as an ineffective measure in dealing with the pandemic. Some suspect this might be one of the reasons he will no longer serve as a director at Sheba Medical Center. Professor Friedman has been a professor at Tel Aviv University since 1999. His research is focused on the inherited predisposition to cancer and population genetics. He is also the first Israeli to swim solo across the English Channel. We are thrilled to have Professor Eitan Friedman with us today to discuss Israel’s Corona policies, the current situation of the pandemic and the price he’s paid for speaking his mind.

Malachy Friedman is a second degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under the legendary Master Ricardo Liborio, co-founder of American Top Team (ATT) and Carlson Gracie lineage. With 18 years of experience, Professor Friedman is adept in multiple fight disciplines including MMA, BJJ, Boxing, Muay Thai, and Wrestling. Beginning in 2001, Malachy started his training with the late UFC Middle-Weight Champion, Evan Tanner. After years of competition, he joined American Top Team headquarters in Coconut Creek, FL considered to be the #1 MMA training camp in the country and one of the only teams capable of putting out world champions. While at headquarters, Malachy spent 8 years coaching the late, great Kimbo Slice to his win against Ken Shamrock at Bellator. He also cornered and coached Ultimate Fighting Championship fighters, IBJJF and ADCC BJJ competitors, and hundreds of newcomers to the sport. In addition to coaching, Malachy is both a strategist and innovator in the sport, having created video instructionals, The Darce Killer, The HeisenGuard, Flower Power, Sh*t Your Instructor Never Showed You, Unf*ck Your Jiu-Jitsu, and Acai Free . He is a regular contributor to Jiu-Jitsu Magazine. In 2015, Malachy brought his experience and knowledge back to his hometown of Charleston where he owns and operates Black Label Martial Arts Academy, formerly known as American Top Team Lowcountry, with his wife, Sarah. Malachy also owns Black Label Jiu-Jitsu Raiders Team and teaches free Women's Self-Defense seminars to the Charleston and surrounding areas. Malachy is a bit of an enigma with one foot firmly planted in over a decade of traditional BJJ expertise and his other foot in a wild experimental research lab of techniques and concepts, you get the sense his brain is inhabited by both a bit of madness and genius. His experimentation has birthed a library of fantastic instructionals, his Darce Killer instructional is absolutely mandatory viewing in my opinion. In this interview you will hear that Malachy often wears his heart on his sleeve, I was pleasantly surprised with how candid and how honest he was in our conversation, it's refreshing to speak with people like this. We talk about how he developed these traits, the trajectory of his career, running an academy, academy drama, developing talent, and his future plans. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/foreverwhitebelt/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/foreverwhitebelt/support

Disaggregating the various functions of modern police agencies provides us the basis to start to reimagine how we might go about building better systems of layered responses to the social problems we have for too long left at the feet of policing agencies in American. Today’s episode features our Facebook Live conversation with Professor Barry Friedman from New York University Law School and the Policing Project. Professor Friedman was just appointed as a special advisor to New York Attorney General James’ investigation of police actions responding to demonstrations. Professor Friedman’s research paper with the same title as this podcast is centrally focused on the two major questions: Are the police the best agency to be responding to the wide variety of calls that modern police agencies are forced to respond.If we disaggregate all of the functions of police agencies can we create a new system of layered response from social workers, trained mediators, and violence against women advocates that can find actual long-term solutions to the problems at the heart of the disputes police are responding to? These are vital questions for a grand public discussion how we might reimagine policing especially considering the time we find ourselves in. As a society for decades have continued to do nothing but pull resources from social services and then told the police you have to cleanup the mess left by our political leaders. In Chicago there are two clear examples of doing just this over the last several years including Closing mental health clinicsclosing 50 schools Sadly the only signals the Mayor of Chicago has sent are strongly against even engaging in the desperately needed pubic discussion around what policing should look and function like in a world where equal treatment under the law is a real requirement. Disaggregating the police functions should be a focal point in any discussion around real reforms to police in America and especially in Chicago.

Hilary Levey Friedman teaches courses in Brown University's Department of Education, and is also an author and the President of The RI chapter of The National Organization for Women.I was curious as to Professor Friedman's opinion on what are the most pressing issues facing women in Rhode Island.Our conversation addressed a multitude of issues that RI NOW are focused on, from reproductive rights to gender-based economic and educational disparities, to transgender rights and protections.  Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/bartholomewtown?fan_landing=true)

Listen NowAccording to a recent Kaiser/Washington Post survey 59 percent of Americans support Medicare for All (M4A).  Per a March New England Journal of Medicine poll 61 percent of physicians said single payer would make it easier for them to deliver cost-effective, quality health care.   Currently, before the House is legislation titled the "Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Act" with over 120 sponsors.  (The legislation has been introduced every session since 2003.)   The House has recently also formed a Medicare for All caucus with 70 Democratic members and if the Democrats win back the House this November they have promised M4A hearings.  The Senate has a parallel bill, the "Medicare for All Act of 2017," currently with 16 cosponsors, several of whom are potential 2020 presidential candidates.  Though there is, again, substantial criticism of M4A, e.g., CMS Administrator, Seema Verma, recently denounced it as "government run socialized health care" (an odd complaint since that is exactly what the current Medicare and Medicaid programs are).  Because of the disruption, dismantling or sabotage of the ACA under the Trump administration and moreover because health care continues to be ever increasingly unaffordable (and bankrupt, the Medicare Part A Trust Fund is now projected to be insolvent in 2026), as is frequently phrased, M4A is, again, on the table. During this 37 minute conversation Professor Friedman provides a general definition of Medicare for All healthcare, how it would be financed and how savings be derived and what amount.  He explains what is current public opinion, what are credible criticisms of M4A and what promising single payer efforts are underway in the states.   Dr. Gerald Friedman is Professor and Undergraduate Program Director of Economics at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.  Prior to, he worked as research staff for the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union.  Professor Friedman is the author of multiple books and articles on labor relations and healthcare economics.  He has been a correspondent to television and media outlets, a consultant to labor unions and has drafted funding plans for campaigns for single payer health insurance in several states including New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Oregon and Washington and a federal plan for the US.  He serves on the Board of Advisers to the Business Initiative for Health Policy.  Professor Friedman earned his undergraduate degree from Columbia College and his Ph.D. in economics from Harvard.  This is a public episode.

Professor Richard Elliott Friedman joins Dan and Lex for a conversation about modern Biblical scholarship, which his book Who Wrote the Bible? brought to lay audiences in an accessible way nearly thirty years ago (and which had a major influence on Dan and Lex). Among the most influential books on Biblical literature of the 20th Century, Who Wrote the Bible? provides a scholarly overview of the authorship of the Torah through a lens known as the "Documentary Hypothesis." Subsequently, Professor Friedman wrote additional books making these ideas available to non-experts. Along with co-hosts Dan and Lex, Professor Friedman dives deeply into his ideas and scholarship, their impact on the world, and more!
