In this episode of 1050 Bascom, we are excited to welcome back Professor Tana Johnson from the La Follette School of Public Affairs and Political Science. Professor Johnson's research and teaching interests span international institutions, environmental and economic policy, and the interaction of governments, businesses, and civil society. We asked her about some of the main topics she covers in her International Environmental Politics course as well as what's working, and what's not, in international environmental politics more generally. We learned so much and enjoyed our conversation. We hope you will too.

“What Luke has set up is that the ordinary people are not only not complicit in the death of Jesus, but they repent of what has been done to him,” says Luke Timothy Johnson, a renowned Scripture scholar, particularly in Luke-Acts, and Woodruff Professor Emeritus of New Testament and Christian Origins at the Candler School of Theology, Emory University. Distinguished from other Palm Sunday Gospels for its unique portrait of repentance, Luke's Passion portrays a great crowd of people turning their backs toward the city following Jesus' death and beating their breasts, the “classic body language of repentance.” “Luke thereby sets up the conversion of the people in the story of Acts, where thousands of faithful Jews hear the word of the resurrection and join the Jesus movement in Acts,” Professor Johnson argues. “[It's] a much more positive view of the people of Israel.”  In this episode, released ahead of Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion, Year C, “Preach” host Ricardo da Silva, S.J., invites Professor Johnson back to discuss the Passion Narratives in the Gospels of Luke and John to help us prepare to celebrate Holy Week. The liturgies of this most meaningful time of our Christian year demand long stretches of attention from people in the pews, so Ricardo and Professor Johnson also share preaching tips to remain brief and point back to the meaning of the liturgy.

“What does it mean to be a prophet?” This is the challenge preachers must wrestle with and present to their congregations over and over, says Luke Timothy Johnson, a renowned Scripture scholar, particularly in Luke-Acts, and Woodruff Professor Emeritus of New Testament and Christian Origins at the Candler School of Theology, Emory University. Christian prophetic witness lies at the heart of Luke's Gospel. “The prophet is led by the Spirit of God; speaks God's word; embodies God's word; enacts God's word; and bears witness even through persecution for God's word,” Professor Johnson says. “And so in each of those categories, the church has room to examine itself.” In this episode, released ahead of the First Sunday of Lent, Year C, “Preach” host Ricardo da Silva, S.J., first invites Professor Johnson to explore key themes in Luke's Gospel. Then, they discuss the Gospel readings for the first four weeks of Lent—The Temptation of Jesus, The Transfiguration, and the parables of the barren fig tree and the prodigal son—and reflect on how these passages illuminate Jesus's prophetic journey to Jerusalem and the church's call to embody this same prophetic mission today.

EELP Senior Staff Attorney Hannah Perls speaks with Olatunde Johnson, the Ruth Bader Ginsburg Professor of Law at Columbia Law School. Professor Johnson and Hannah discuss the history and evolution of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, a crucial legal tool for the environmental justice movement. Earlier this year, a federal judge blocked EPA and the Department of Justice from enforcing their Title VI rules prohibiting actions that disparately impact communities of color in the state of Louisiana, and now those rules are at risk of being struck down nationwide.   This is the first episode in a 2-part series on Title VI.

In this episode of The A to Z English Podcast, Xochitl and Jack explain how you should address peers and authority figures in the United States.Transcript:00:00:01JackWelcome to the A to Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we have a new kind of episode that we'd like to call the culture corner.00:00:12JackAnd social today's question comes from one of our listeners and our listener. This is Nash to asking. Nash is from Iraq and she says she asks, what did the majority of people in America prefer to be called?00:00:31JackSo when we talked about this episode earlier today, you you've separated it into two really interesting categories. I think peers and authority figures. Is that what you said?00:00:44XochitlYes, that's what I said.00:00:45JackOK, OK. So I like that because I think that that's a really good way to to like kind of picture the situation in America. And so how would you what? Well let's start with peers first, what do peers prefer to be called?00:01:02XochitlEars are usually referred to informally and you talk.00:01:05XochitlTo them by.00:01:06XochitlTheir name?00:01:07JackRight.00:01:08XochitlSo peers refers to also someone on your same level hierarchically. So if we're talking about, for example, your classmates in school, college, elementary school, whatever.00:01:22XochitlThose are your peers. If you're at a job, everyone who's in your same station as you, like anyone who is your colleague and isn't above.00:01:29XochitlView hierarchically, those are your peers in a family setting. Even your brothers and sisters are really your peers, and the parents are basically the 30 or any older adults are basically a 30.00:01:44JackRight. And now what about our case like I'm 47? You're 26. Or did you turn?00:01:48Jack27 I can't remember.00:01:50XochitlI turned 27.00:01:51JackYou turned 27 so OK, so I've got 20 years in you, but I still think.00:01:55JackOf you as like.00:01:55JackA peer, because we're both podcasters. We're partners in this in our business.00:02:01JackAnd so, even though there's a 20 year, 20 year gap, I I don't know about you, but if you started calling me, Mr. McBain, that would be really weird. You know what I mean?00:02:12XochitlSo awkward. And that brings you a really important point, which is.00:02:18XochitlSometimes if you start out formally, Jack was talking about, it's important to.00:02:24XochitlSo start formally because it's you're unlikely to offend someone, you might make it a little awkward, but if you start formally, you're unlikely to offend someone. They'll just correct you to speak to them more informally. And so if I started calling Jack, Mr. McBain now.00:02:43XochitlIf you insist, once a person has told you to draw up formalities, you can actually make the situation way more uncomfortable than you would have just following what they prefer and just being informal.00:02:58발표자Right.00:02:59JackI would say like a lot of people.00:03:01JackThat are you.00:03:02JackKnow. So let's let's go to like authority figures.00:03:05JackRight. So and it so.00:03:06JackIt doesn't matter the age, it's more about the like situation like.00:03:10JackSo social and.00:03:11JackI are. We're both podcasting partners in this business, so.00:03:15JackSo she and I.00:03:16JackUse our names. I call her social, she.00:03:18JackCalls me Jack.00:03:19JackWell, let's say let's you say you go to university.00:03:24JackYou you meet your.00:03:25JackProfessor for the first time, you know, at the beginning of the semester, like you said, you're always gonna start with the formal, right? You're gonna say Professor Smith?00:03:35XochitlJohn. Ohh yeah.00:03:38JackProfessor Johnson or Professor Smith or whatever. And then if the professor says no, no, don't call me Professor Johnson, call me Deborah or Deb.00:03:48JackMaybe then you have to switch to informal and call her Debbie from now on. Don't use the formal because she already asked you not to use the formal.00:04:00JackHow do we?00:04:01JackBut I would say if she doesn't.00:04:03JackSay that if she says, you know if you say good morning professor.00:04:08JackJohnson and she says good morning, Jack, or good morning social. Then I would always use Professor Johnson in that case because she never asked me.00:04:18JackTo use the.00:04:19JackInformal, so I'm going to assume she wants me to use the formal and then just continue that out.00:04:28XochitlIn authority, like in situations where you're addressing a person of authority, the default is only as a formality, so you only default to or assume talking to someone in a formal way. And then of course you can change.00:04:44XochitlIt later and.00:04:45XochitlIn most settings, people will tell you how they want to be addressed. In the US, we do tend to be like.00:04:51XochitlA little more direct in those ways and like for example, when I was in college, our professors would usually let.00:04:57XochitlUs know how.00:04:57XochitlThey wanted to be addressed, so if they want to be addressed as professor, so and so.00:05:01XochitlSo then that was fine, but if they wanted to be addressed by their first names, they would also let us know that as well. So it was never really a guessing game. Like what should I call this person or not?00:05:14JackMy friend's parents.00:05:16JackI would I always use the formal. I would say like yeah, my friend's name is uh is uh, you know Joe Johnson, I would say to his parents. Hello, Mrs. Johnson. Hello, Mr. Johnson. Like, that's what I would say. I wouldn't. I wouldn't just be like hey.00:05:34JackMitch. Hey, Barbara. You know like that because it's too. It's too comfortable. Like you don't know them. You're not close enough to them. But if they tell you, call me Barbara. Call me Mitch. Then you can you can do it so.00:05:51JackYeah, I don't know is it is.00:05:53JackIs this easy or is this?00:05:56XochitlI think it can be a little complicated and I think the most important thing to remember is that if it's your peers, you can be informal. If it's authority, you should be formal. Yeah, at least at 1st, and then if the authority figure wants to.00:06:12XochitlYou to talk more informally then. That's fine. And another important thing to remember is, UM, if you're unsure, I guess if the person is your peer or an authority figure, like if you're coworkers, but you don't know the person has a higher station than you, like maybe they're not quite the boss, but maybe they're a manager or something.00:06:34XochitlThen just start out.00:06:37XochitlWith talking to them formally, and they'll correct you if they want to.00:06:45JackI I love it, I.00:06:46JackMean, I think.00:06:46JackThese are really good.00:06:48JackRules right, peers. Informal authority figures start formally and then until they ask you to to to be informal.00:06:59JackAnd if you don't know?00:07:01JackDon't guess, just always go formal because it's better to be too formal than to be too informal. So I think those are the three rules. If you can follow those 3 rules, you'll be you'll be fine in in America.00:07:15JackIn the United States.00:07:16XochitlI do have a couple little things to add. 1 is it depends how casual or formal the setting is. Like if you're in a workplace or at school, these are formal settings, so again like you want to follow the rules we just established.00:07:33XochitlBut if it's a more casual setting, kind of like the podcast like Jack and I kind of met in a casual way and the podcast is more casual, like the age difference doesn't really matter in that context.00:07:47XochitlAnd then the last thing that I wanted to say is if you're talking to a random stranger like, say someone drops your wallet, Sir or ma'am is perfectly fine way to address someone.00:08:02XochitlUM, you're like, oh, excuse me, Sir, you dropped your wallet or excuse me, ma'am, you dropped your wallet. And if the person is a younger person or someone like in their 20s or or or maybe early 30s, you can say miss or.00:08:17XochitlLike a.00:08:19XochitlYoung man, for example.00:08:22XochitlAs well.00:08:24JackAnd and it. Yeah, I think that that's really good. And even if that's too much to remember, just certain, ma'am is is is OK.00:08:32XochitlYeah, that's OK if the.00:08:34JackEven even for younger people, you say?00:08:35JackSir, you know? Yeah.00:08:38XochitlYou'll call me ma'am and I find it, like, weird. Sometimes they've called me ma'am since I was a kid. Like people, people, even in American culture, we default to something.00:08:50XochitlSo it should be fine.00:08:51JackI've been called, Sir. When I was young too, you know? And it feels weird. You kind. It feels like you're it. It feels bigger than than me.00:08:59JackThan I am.00:09:00JackYou know what?00:09:00JackI mean like someones using a title.00:09:02JackThat's much larger than.00:09:03JackMy my status but but it's still effective. You know, if they don't know your name, they say Sir.00:09:14XochitlRight. So I hope that answer your answers your question. I'm getting tongue tied there listeners.

In this episode, host Hilary Sutcliffe explores . . . technological progress from another angle. Does technology increase prosperity, make our lives better and create lots of new jobs? Or in reality does it promote greater inequality, more badly paid jobs and exploited workers, with the prosperity going to the few and not the many? Sutcliffe explores with Professor Simon Johnson the lessons of over a thousand years of technological progress and they discuss the practicalities of what he calls a more "human complementary" approach to what technology may be. Professor Johnson is an economist at MIT and co-author with colleague Daron Acemoglu of a new book, Power and Progress: Our Thousand-Year Struggle Over Technology and Prosperity.

Today's conversation is with Mark Johnson. Mark is the Philip H. Knight Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Emeritus, in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Oregon. His research has focused on the philosophical implications of the role of human embodiment in meaning, conceptualization, reasoning, values, and knowing, especially from the perspective of embodied cognitive science and pragmatist philosophy. His recent work develops a naturalistic account of mind and knowing. He is co-author, with George Lakoff, of Metaphors We Live By (1980) and Philosophy in the Flesh (1999) and author of The Body in the Mind: The Bodily Basis of Meaning, Imagination, and Reason (1987), Moral Imagination: Implications of Cognitive Science for Ethics (1993), The Meaning of the Body: Aesthetics of Human Understanding (2007), Morality for Humans: Ethical Understanding from the Perspective of Cognitive Science (2014), Embodied Mind, Meaning, and Reason (2017), Aesthetics of Meaning and Thought (2018), and Out of the Cave: A Natural Philosophy of Mind and Knowing (2021). In today's conversation we spoke about what brought Professor Johnson to this field, Metaphors as a foundation of how people view their world and to find meaning, dualism of mind body, cultural ontologies, non-absolutism, embodiment and awareness, world structuring and so much more. I had some technical difficulties before we really got started and you'll hear me come into the conversation a bit abruptly because of that, I apologize for this.  To learn more about Mark please visit https://blogs.uoregon.edu/markj You can find his amazing and classic book "Metaphors We Live By" here https://www.amazon.com/Metaphors-We-Live-George-Lakoff/dp/0226468011?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=andrewrosen0b-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=d3680c932c70f6019f23413a09dc2720&camp=1789&creative=9325 If you enjoyed today's episode, we'd appreciate it if you would leave a positive review of the podcast and subscribe to it through the platform of your choice.

Three weeks ago, we heard about Jesus preaching his first sermon in his hometown synagogue. On that day as he addressed the congregation, Jesus claimed these words as his Mission Statement, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.” And, from that point on, his ministry was about living into those words. Today, Jesus speaks to his followers, those who have made a real commitment to follow him, and he lays out his Vision Statement.   As Jesus comes down from the mountain to the plain to speak, it is clear the writer of Luke's gospel wants us to know that Jesus' words today are spoken to the disciples, to the church, to us, to all who follow him. Jesus looks out on the followers who stand before him and sees the poor, the weak, the oppressed, the women, and the slaves, and he begins preaching a radical sermon proclaiming the promise of a new society. In this promise, he is not talking about some ideal utopia. This sermon is a call to a radical life of discipleship, a way of living in the world that turns the way of the world upside down, because what he is essentially saying is, “Blessed are all of you who are disregarded by the powerful, for you are God's beloved community.”  It is interesting, as Jesus lays out his vision of a new community, he blesses history's losers!  The blessings he proclaims were truly a protest against injustice!  No wonder it was radical.  And, no wonder it is still radical today! Before we begin to look at what Jesus is saying, it is important that we understand what the word “blessing” means as used here in scripture.  The Greek word for “blessing” ascribed to Jesus in these Beatitudes is makarios.  This word means “happy” or “favor.” In Christian scriptures, the word specifically means God's favor, often called “grace.”  So, what Jesus is saying is “Favored are the poor, God's grace is theirs.”  He is not saying “Be happy for poverty.”  Essentially, he is saying to the people, “God privileges the poor.  If you are poor, you are favored by God.  God's gifts are with you.”  As one commentator puts it, “The elite in God's kingdom, the blessed ones, are those who are at the bottom of the heap of humanity.”  In the culture of that time, this was shocking, and I must say it is still shocking in our time. Jesus turns things upside down and drives home some topsy-turvy news regarding the order of things in God's kingdom.   Jesus is speaking directly to the disciples and each one of us as he invites us into his holy venture to live out our faith. Jesus is not describing an ideological agenda or a political platform.  He does not provide us with an abstract or empty definition of discipleship.  He is not listing for us qualifications describing some “how to” method to get into heaven.  Jesus is describing a vision of God's reign which he totally and completely embodies.  What he is doing is calling all of us to become faithful and effective agents of God's reign right here and right now.  And, quite frankly, for those of us who live in middle class America, his words are so very challenging.  The “rules of engagement” of Jesus' reign stand in sharp contrast to the presumed rights of the prosperous as he talks about wealth, abundant food, the good stuff of life and all that we consider blessings.  Jesus' words and vision are simply at odds with the way things are in our lives and in the world.  Jesus knows that we are possessed by our possessions and the so called “blessings” we feel we have and enjoy.  Theologian, Diana Butler Bass, when talking about this passage, says that most people think of blessings in this way:  Blessed are the rich, for they own the best stuff.  Blessed are the sexy and glamorous, for everyone desires them.  Blessed are the powerful, for they control the kingdoms of the earth.  Blessed are those who get everything they ever wanted; they alone will be satisfied.  Blessed are the famous, for their reward is eternal life.  Money, beauty, power, achievement, and fame – we hold these things in esteem.  If only we had them, or just one of them, we would be blessed.  (Grateful: The Transformative Power of Giving Thanks, pl 140.)   Yes, these aspects of life are what we tend to name as “blessings.”   But, Jesus sees these as characteristics of the lost and proclaims woe to any of us who find ourselves looking at life in this way.  By proclaiming woe to this way of life, Jesus announces the evil and injustice in our way of living and thinking.  Jesus says the poor and the hungry are the ones who are blessed or favored, for their fortunes are going to be reversed.  He says, “Are you weeping?  You are blessed because you will laugh.  Do people hate, exclude, and revile you on account of the Son of Man?  Jump for joy, for your reward is great in heaven; their grandparents hated and excluded the prophets too.”  Jesus is saying God is not impressed with what we consider blessings.  In fact, all that we consider “blessings” misrepresents his message.  Oh, yes, Jesus is again turning this world, our thinking, and even our conventional assumptions about religion upside down.  Jesus blesses those who suffer, and he curses those whose wealth, comfort, and prestige are built upon exploiting that same suffering.   Now, quite honestly, as we live in the cushioned environment of our so called “blessings,” many of us would probably say, “I am not poor, but I identify with the poor,” or “I work with the poor,” or maybe even “I send money to the poor, I care about the poor.”  We might even want to quibble about the definition of “poor,” or “hungry” or “weeping.”  Surely, we the faithful, are among the blessed.   So, if we are honest with ourselves, we need to ask, “If we are not the poor, the hungry, the weeping, or the excluded, what are we to hear from this so-called “good news?”  Pastor Laura Sugg, when thinking about this question, suggests: Again, remember Jesus first sermon. Luke's Jesus is fulfilling God's compassion for the oppressed.  In that first sermon, Jesus' first words to people in Luke's Gospel repeat the words from Isaiah: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.” (4:18a) Throughout Luke's Gospel, Jesus lives this out these words by talking with those on the margins, challenging the status quo, and convicting those who feel certain they are righteous.  (Feasting on the Word, p. 240.)   The kingdom of God that Jesus embodies is not some abstract theological term about a time and place the world has never known.  Jesus is calling us to be faithful agents of God's reign right here and right now.  God's kingdom, God's reign, breaks through when we love our enemies.  It takes hold when we do good to those who hate us.  It comes alive when we bless those who curse us.  It shines brightly when we pray for those who abuse or mistreat us.  It shows up when we honor the request of the beggars and work to change the economic structure that creates injustice.  When we live our lives by the principle of “do unto others as you would have them do to you,” and when we love all others as God calls us to love, we truly live out our citizenship in God's kingdom and bear witness to God's reign.   I must say, living this kind of life is not easy.  In fact, it is very difficult. It is the way of the cross.  It means we must become vulnerable and that is a condition most of us would rather avoid.  But Jesus is always unsettling us and, as he tells us that the order of things in God's rule is reversed, we discover that life with God means knowing what poverty and hunger and sorrow and being cursed look like.  It means knowing how it feels to be overlooked and discounted.  It means knowing what it is like to be hated.  And it means living in solidarity all others and admitting our total dependence upon God.  When Jesus said, “Blessed are the poor,” he upended and overturned the politics of blessing.  He preached blessings were more than happiness.  They were a social vision showing what God desires for the world. And, as New Testament scholar, Luke Timothy Johnson says, this vision is indeed the great theme of Luke's entire gospel. Mary first articulates this vision when she finds out she will give birth to a son, and Jesus then claims his mission, lives it, and lives into that social vision throughout his entire ministry.  Professor Johnson writes: God reverses human status and perception: in a downward movement, [God] scatters the arrogant, pulls down the mighty, sends the rich away empty. But God also, in an upward movement, exalts the lowly, fills the hungry, and takes the hand of [the poor]. Precisely such a reversal is announced by Jesus in his Beatitudes, his blessings and woes, and it is enacted by him in the narrative of his entire ministry. (Gospel of Luke in the Sacra Pagina Series, Volume 3; Collegeville, Minn.: The Liturgical Press, 1991; p. 44.)   People of God, as Jesus' disciples, we too are called to live Jesus'    mission and live into Jesus' vision for the sake of this needy, hurting world.

Emma hosts Paul Elliott Johnson, Assistant Professor of Communications at the University of Pittsburgh, to discuss his recent book I The People: The Rhetoric of Conservative Populism, on the transformation of the conservative populist movements over the last century, and how they worked to define, and redefine, white America. Professor Johnson first works to define the malleable characteristics that guide conservative values, such as whiteness, the ability to make free decisions, and economic viability, before he and Emma get into the actual way that the right sought to define America, by its opposition to Blackness. This brings them to a quick exploration of the Black radical tradition, and its start with an emphasis on experience, before working to unpack how Blackness was used as a designation of pathological danger and negativity, and what it means to be un-American, from the "Welfare Queen" trope to healthcare. Professor Johnson then dives into how the end of the cold war put the US on the edge, ending their competition with the USSR which had driven their social justice advancements, technological advancements, and economic development over the last few decades, looking particularly at Reagan assuming his role at the pinnacle of conservatism working to join both libertarian conservatives and traditionalists against the threat of Blackness, and slavery at the hand of the state. He and Emma also dive into his more overt examples of juxtaposing true America with Blackness, as seen with his coining of the "Welfare Queen" term, and how this allowed him to put Blackness in the backseat during his 1984 reelection, instead focusing on the beauty of consumption and whiteness. They also explore figures like Newt Gingrich and how they shaped the identity of the American conservative in the ‘90s, with a focus on the angry white finance man, before wrapping up the interview by looking at the effect of the 2008 financial crisis in nearly undermining the real divides in the US, and how the Tea Party worked to completely obscure that through a re-establishment of Blackness and the slavery of the state under Obama as central threats to the US, ultimately working to the election of Donald Trump as a white, hyper-masculine head of the movement. Emma also covers Joe Manchin tanking Build Back Better, AKA what every leftist knew his Build Back Better goal was, as well as Bernie's response, and Chile's election. And in the Fun Half: Matt Lech gives a myth-busting seminar on Socialism's efficacy in Latin America in the wake of Boric's successful presidential campaign in Chile, Kowalski calls in to talk cashews impact on climate change, and the crew explores Charlamagne Tha God breaking down Kamala Harris in an interview with a simple Manchin-related question.

Title: A New Faustian Bargain? Understanding the Lessons of the Soviet-German Cooperation An Interview with Professor Ian Johnson by Charles Sedore Summary: In this episode of Students Talk Security, Charles Sedore, a Notre Dame senior, and Professor Ian John, Assistant Professor of Military History, discuss the history surrounding the German-Soviet Cooperation that occurred during the interwar period and the lessons learned about Russian foreign policy choices. From this historical discussion, the conversation looks to the future as a means of assessing what Russian foreign policy regarding China could look like. Biography: Professor Johnson is an Assistant Professor of Military History at the University of Notre Dame’s Department of History. Prior to joining Notre Dame, Professor Johnson received his PhD from the Ohio State University in 2016, with his dissertation focusing on the secret military cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany during the interwar period. Also, during his time prior to Notre Dame, Professor Johnson received a Fulbright-Hays Fellowship, was a pre-doctoral fellow at Yale University, a postdoctoral fellow at the Clements Center for National Security, and an Associate Director of the Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy at Yale University. Currently, Professor Johnson has focused his efforts on war, both in its origins and conduct, and the maintenance of peace. This has led to a forthcoming publication from the Oxford University Press, The Faustian Bargain: Secret Soviet-German Military Cooperation in the Interwar Period. On top of the publication, Professor Johnson is also working on a new manuscript about early Cold war military history focusing on collective security and the plans for an international military force.

Carina Johnson is coeditor -- with David Luebke, Marjorie Elizabeth Plummer, and Jesse Spohnholz -- of Archeologies of Confession: Writing the German Reformation, 1517-2017 (Berghahn, 2019) and she is also the author of the introduction to this collected volume. Today she talks about these fifteen essays written by both German and American experts of Reformation History and how they see the towering figure of Martin Luther looming over 500 years of German history and identity. In terms of theology and confession, then later (in the nineteenth century) of nationalism, and (finally) the post-national, almost Pan-European politics of today, Martin Luther has been asked to wear many hats over time. In this discussion, Professor Johnson considers the agendas those hats have contained, while also considering the details of social history of real people who lived their lives oblivious to the political questions in the stratosphere. In the second half of this discussion, Dr. Johnson considers the changing role of ‘Great Men' in the service of public memory, including Martin Luther King (on whose holiday we recorded) and Christopher Columbus whose quincentenary preceded Luther's by 25 years and is still fresh in our minds. Carina Johnson is Professor of History at Pitzer College. She is the author of Cultural Hierarchy in Sixteenth-Century Europe: The Ottomans and Mexicans (2011). Her current research includes “cross-cultural encounters, proto-ethnography, memory, and the experience of violence in the sixteenth-century Habsburg Empire.”  Krzysztof Odyniec is a historian of the Early Modern Europe, the Spanish Empire, and the Atlantic World, specializing in sixteenth-century diplomacy and travel.

Tobacco and alcohol are the largest sources of preventable death in the world. Our current treatments are only 15% effective at best. However, psilocybin-assisted therapy has achieved an astonishing 80% success rate in clinical trials. Professor Matthew Johnson is paving the way for this new an innovative treatment to address one of the most damaging social burdens of modern society, drug addiction. It is important to note that Professor Johnson's research is not looking at casual habitual smokers, but instead, long-term, treatment resistant tobacco users.  Matthew W. Johnson, Ph.D., Professor at Johns Hopkins, has worked with psychedelics since 2004. He published psychedelic safety guidelines in 2008, the first psychedelic treatment of tobacco addiction in 2014, and with colleagues published the largest study of psilocybin in cancer distress in 2016. His 2018 psilocybin review recommended Schedule IV upon medical approval. He is Principal Investigator on upcoming psilocybin studies treating opioid addiction and PTSD, and LSD research treating chronic pain. Matt and the Johns Hopkins Psychedelic Research Unit are examining the long-term behavioural changes resulting from a single psilocybin session and cognitive behavioural therapy.

Stefanie Johnson is an associate professor at the University of Colorado Boulder’s Leeds School of Business and her new book is Inclusify: The Power of Uniqueness and Belonging to Build Innovative Teams. Professor Johnson studies the intersection of leadership and diversity, focusing on how unconscious bias affects the evaluation of leaders and on strategies that leaders can use to mitigate bias. She draws on her own experience as a Latina who grew up poor to inform her research. She is a member of the MG 100 Coaches, was selected for the 2020 Thinkers50 Radar List, and has presented her work at over 170 meetings around the world, including at the White House for a 2016 summit on diversity in corporate America on National Equal Pay Day.In this episode, Stew and Stefanie talk about how she has evolved in her thoughts and feelings about what it takes to create cultures that both celebrate individual differences and build a sense of belonging among members. Stefanie draws an important distinction between “diversity” and “inclusion” and she describes the various styles of leadership as they relate to the challenge of leading diverse, inclusive organizations. Based on her extensive research, Stefanie offers suggestions for what leaders at all levels can do to overcome the hurdles that stand in the way of inclusifying work organizations. Here then is an invitation, a challenge, for you, once you’ve listened to the conversation. Take the inclusify quiz here and find out which one of the leadership types suits you best. Then, try one of the recommended actions. What do you discover? Write to Stew Friedman to let him know, at friedman@wharton.upenn.edu, or connect with him on LinkedIn.

Talking School Integration  Was school integration a “failed experiment”? Is the impact of policy limited when it comes to education?  In this episode, Goldman Professor Rucker Johnson debunks the myths around school integration and shares the insights from his new book, Children of the Dream: Why School Integration Works. In this second episode of our series on Policy Design and Implementation, Sarah Edwards (MPP ’20) speaks with Professor Johnson about the way well-designed policy can lead to significant outcomes for all children. The conversation covers the impacts of historic desegregation, the dangers of current resegreation, and the best combination of policies to achieve diversity and educational excellence.  As with many of the issues that Talk Policy to Me covers, there is more to the story of integration and race in schools than we could cover in this short episode. Here are a few resources we suggest if you are interested in diving deeper:   Check out Children of the Dream, available at your local bookstore  Read “It was never about Busing” by Nikole Hannah-Jones  Explore the Washington Posts’ map on school district diversity

Guest: University of Minnesota Morse Alumni Distinguished Professor of Political Science and Law Timothy Johnson The founders of the United States envisioned the Supreme Court as the weakest of the three branches of government. But even a one-term president can nominate Supreme Court justices who, if confirmed by the Senate, can sit on the bench for life. The presidential impact on public policy can extend well beyond their tenure in office. Despite the founder's intentions, many scholars now believe that the Supreme Court is the most powerful branch of government. University of Minnesota Morse Alumni Distinguished Professor of Political Science and Law Timothy Johnson—a nationally recognized Supreme Court expert—shares his insights on how the Court functions and why its influence has grown over the decades. You can hear Professor Johnson speak on this topic at the U of M College of Continuing and Professional Studies Headliners event on October 10.

More with Professor Johnson of Virginia Tech. This time, we learn about his “big humanities” response to “big technologies.” Lots to consider, from brain-to-computer interfaces, to robotic morality, to democracy, to trust. We liked his ideas about the inclusiveness that is needed for human beings to think these things through to ensure that voices and experiences are not left out. Some big philosophical stuff that left Troy and Lee in deep thought. We aren’t sure what the future holds, but we are glad people like Sylvester are helping the world grapple with these foundational questions.

With the help of Professor Johnson of Virginia Tech, we discuss what it means to be human in an age of accelerating technology, where computers and robots can think and maybe even feel. Professor Johnson explains several of the amazing technologies that exist today, both “outside” people and those being incorporated directly into people’s bodies, and how industry and government is pushing this forward. He really expanded our views on how to think about humanity and technology.

Discover the story of the world's most consistently best-selling book, which came into being through a remarkable and complicated process. In 24 stimulating lectures, Professor Johnson investigates the many forms the Bible has taken and the ways history, scholarship, and technology have helped shape this great tradition, as well as the Bible's powerful influence on human history and culture. The Bible has long served as a powerful force, both reflecting and shaping the cultures that have read and embraced it. Over the centuries, perceptions of the Bible have inspired men and women and shaped nations; they've sent nations to war and martyrs to their deaths. The struggle of translation has been a battleground for controlling the meaning of sacred text, a struggle that reached its peak during the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. From the early history of the New Testament, when Hebrew and Greek sources built a new story on the foundation of the ancient Jewish tradition, to the world-changing invention of the printing press, a revolutionary innovation that contributed to the Protestant Reformation, this enthralling story gives you a deep appreciation for the tremendous power of this astonishing book - one that has endured through centuries and touched the lives of countless millions.

How pain’s subjectivity makes it difficult to measure, rewiring the brain, and new research that allows patients to visualise their pain. This edition is funded by the Plum Foundation. In this edition of Airing Pain, returning contributor Mark Johnson, Director of the Centre for Pain Research at Leeds Beckett University, speaks to Paul about the experimental methods used in their lab to measure how pain is experienced. Professor Johnson emphasises the difficulty in communicating one’s pain, as it is entirely context driven and based on the experiences of the patient. Paul then heads to Manchester University to speak to Professor of Neuro-Rheumatology Anthony Jones. Paul learns about the different techniques used to measure the alpha waves produced by the brain when pain occurs, how the anticipation of pain is as important as pain itself, and the difficulties that scientists encounter when trying to emulate these signals. We also hear about the brain’s ‘plasticity’; its ability to rewire connection based on sensory experience. Anthony’s research team are developing a ‘smart neuro-therapies’ platform (which you can get involved in, see ‘More Information’ below), a way for patients to measure their brain’s alpha waves, which are important in controlling sensory experiences. The research could have significant implications in pain management. The team are employing a unique collaborative theatre piece, Pain, the Brain and a Little Bit of Magic to help patients, healthcare professionals, and the public to understand these complex systems.

Living with a diagnosis, what palliative care entails, and non-pharmacological treatments. This edition is funded by the Agnes Hunter Trust.  According to Cancer Research UK, 50% of all people in England and Wales diagnosed with cancer survive their disease for ten years or more. This edition of Airing Pain looks at what pain management entails for the other 50%; those that live with terminal cancer. Kate Grafton, Lecturer and Professional Lead for Physiotherapy at Leeds Beckett University, speaks to Paul about her breast cancer diagnosis, her experiences with different treatments, the psychology of mindfulness, and finding the right support group. Paul then heads to St Gemma’s teaching hospice at the University of Leeds to speak to Professor of Palliative Medicine Mike Bennett who explains what palliative care entails as well as the importance of balancing treatment and quality of life. Back at Leeds Beckett we hear from the Director of the Centre for Pain Research Mark Johnson, who has a particular interest in non-pharmacological treatments like TENS machines, acupuncture, and laser therapy. Professor Johnson talks Paul about the mechanisms of these treatments and their various limitations and strengths.

It's not easy to discuss the Northwest's risks of earthquakes in comparison to the risks of climate change, but those are the two topics shared by University of Washington Professor Paul Johnson in this Bainbridge interview via skype. Paul, who is a UW Professor of Oceanography and Adjunct Professor of Earth and Space Sciences was recently the featured speaker at the monthly Open Mic Science event at the Treehouse Cafe on Bainbridge. His topic that December night was earthquake risk and the results of his recent research in the Pacific Ocean where two massive geologic plates are colliding and sticking and creating the preconditions to earthquake activity. In addition to his field research on conditions relating to seismic activity, Professor Johnson has, for the last 19 years, taught University of Washington students about the science and facts of climate change. The first half of this podcast discusses earthquake risk. Paul's own research, about the research ocean vessel Atlantis, in the Pacific west of Grays Harbor in August 2013, confirmed the approximate location of the “locked zone” between two plates, where the greatest risk of the largest quakes is likely to originate (similar to the historically massive magnitude 9 quake in Japan in 2011). The second half of this podcast discusses climate change, and the clear consensus among scientists that we are experiencing climate change that is primarily caused by manmade factors.  Paul reflects on the various influences on public opinion and the lack of well-informed awareness among many. He comments briefly on the form that climate change is likely to take in the Northwest. And he responds to recent assertions by some about solar activity as a cause of climate change, and the questions that some people raise about the slower growth of surface temperatures in 2000-2010 as compared to 1980-2000. Professor Johnson's December visit to Bainbridge Island was hosted by the Bainbridge Open Mic Science group that sponsors talks -- on the first Monday of the month at 8pm at the Treehouse -- by scientists offering their informal remarks on their various scientific endeavors.   Credits:  BCB host, editor and social media publisher: Barry Peters.
