Podcasts about professor jacobs

In this episode of Energy Transition Talk, Justine speaks with Professor Jacobs, an energy law professor at Berkeley Law, about all things energy law – what it is and why it matters. Professor Jacobs walks us through some of the most important energy laws that affect our daily lives, from the Inflation Reduction Act at the national level to the myriad of laws California, as the nation's leader in energy legislation, is implementing to electrify buildings and transportation, clean up our electricity grid, and reduce energy demand. Professor Jacobs also explains the hurdles to building clean energy infrastructure, the need to consider the community in permitting decisions, and the role we can each play in shaping energy regulations and policies.  Justine then chats with Christen Richardson, a law student at USC Gould, about her experience working on renewable energy at a law firm and the state of the energy industry as seen through the lens of a law firm. Christen shares her thoughts on the role of energy law in the energy transition, the challenges and opportunities, and what excites her about the energy transition. 1:36 Interview with Professor Jacobs 46:00 Interview with Christen Richardson 1:04:35 Concluding Remarks We hope you enjoy these conversations!

In the Spring of 2017, we interviewed noted labor historian and academic David Jacobs, and we asked him: what does it mean to work? Nearly four years have passed since we interviewed Professor Jacobs, and yet very little in the workforce has changed. People who work still have to place their financial concerns above all other considerations. And yet, in this interview, Professor Jacobs describes the ways that our work can become meaningful and fulfilling. In this episode, we discuss: What does it mean to work? Starts at 3:18 The concept of "labor capitalism." Starts at 5:12 The current lack of a social safety net for workers. Starts at 10:31 Where he believes that the workforce is headed. Starts at 27:37 The emergence of the worker-activist. Starts at 28:44 What was true in 2017 remains true entering 2021: finding and doing meaningful work may not happen with employment in one job. Many of us are doing gigs and side-hustles to make ends meet, but also do work with greater purpose. Nearly four years later, we are still asking: what does it mean to work? About our guest: David Jacobs is an Associate Professor of Labor and Sustainability at the Graves School of Business at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland. What is more, he is the author of The Disunited States of America: Employment Relations Systems in Conflict. Professor Jacobs lives in Montgomery County, Maryland.

Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence, racism, and sexual violence. This week, we continue our conversation with Professor Michelle S. Jacobs to delve further into the ways in which state violence is committed against Black women and federal policy designed to protect survivors of domestic violence actually discriminates against Black women. Professor Jacobs goes on to describe how police violence translates into carceral violence and shares the value of thinking critically about reformist vs. abolitionist solutions to our broken criminal legal system.

Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence, racism, and sexual violence. Michelle S. Jacobs, a Professor of Law at the University of Florida, walks us through the layered nature of violence and oppression against Black women in America. During our conversation, we reckon with the fact that police killings of Black women rarely make headlines. To explain why Black women are often left out of racial discourse, Professor Jacobs unpacks the roles and stereotypes that have been prescribed to Black women throughout history.
