We all have different opinions on dining alone. Some people relish the experience. Others would rather eat a bowl of bees than feel vulnerable at a table for one. . .perhaps thinking to themselves - are people judging me?  This hour, producer Katrice Claudio reflects on solo dining and how it can actually be a way to connect — with yourself, and others. Katrice talks with writer Alissa Wilkinson. She's a movie critic for The New York Times, and the author of the book, Salty: Lessons on Eating, Drinking, and Living from Revolutionary Women. A year ago, Alissa wrote an article for Vox called “The Glories of Dining Out Alone.” Alissa explains some of the history of dining alone, the stigma people may still feel, and takeaways for solo-diners. . . so you might feel a little more confident if taking yourself out to dinner is part of your self-care. Katrice also talks with local bartender Anna Konya about her experiences observing and interacting with lots of solo diners grabbing a meal at the bar. Plus, get to know the New York City photographer behind the book, Dining Alone: In the Company of Solitude. Aside from its portraits of solo-diners, the book is an interesting visual history of restaurants spanning 35 years. GUESTS: Alissa Wilkinson: Writer and a movie critic for The New York Times.

The first is to doggedly, insist on seeing the world just as it is with its disappointments and horrors and committing to it all the same. The second is to encounter people in the world and embrace their alterity, or difference.”Arendt's “banality of evil”The importance of letter-writing for sharing the self and inhabiting a years-long friendshipEdna Lewis, Freetown, Virginia, and “The Taste of Southern Cooking”Farm-to-table cooking used to be out of economic necessity, not a hip or high fine dining experienceEdna Lewis's Southern identity: "Lewis defines Southern as the experience of an emancipated people and their descendants, a cultural and culinary heritage to be proud of a distinctly American culture.

Annie joins Elisabeth Armstrong, author of Bury the Corpse of Colonialism: The Revolutionary Feminist Conference of 1949 for a discussion of the Beijing conference and the international women's movement of the period. They discuss the composition and politics of the Women's International Democratic Federation, the key figures in the WIDF who played a role in the Asian Women's Conference, the different rhetorical strategies formulated through the conference, including revolutionary motherhood and women's anti-colonialism, as well as the political and interpersonal dynamics between women in the WIDF from the imperial core and women from colonized countries. They then discuss the place of the conference in the broader communist movement, the role of state repression, and how the terrain of feminist politics has changed since the peak of the WIDF, drawing lessons for contemporary feminist and socialist movements.

Social media has warped what it means to be in relationship to other people, their experiences, and their opinions. Algorithms force-feed us predictable content based on what they predict we will consume.How do we break the cycle—and rethink what division means in 2023? Can disagreements, governed by shared values, actually save us—and democracy, itself?Alissa Wilkinson is a senior culture reporter and critic at Vox.com, where she writes about film, TV, and culture. She is also an associate professor of English and humanities at The King's College in New York City, where, since 2009, she has taught courses on criticism, cinema studies, literature, and cultural theory. She joins us to discuss her book, Salty: Lessons on Eating, Drinking, and Living from Revolutionary Women, which features the biographies of nine, 20th-century figures who challenged norms and defied conventional wisdom, including Ella Baker, Alice B. Toklas, Hannah Arendt, Octavia Butler, Agnes Varda, Elizabeth David, Edna Lewis, Maya Angelou, and Laurie Colwin.In this interview, Alissa shares how one figure in her book, Hannah Arendt, viewed friendship and disagreement as an anti-authoritarian tool that was necessary for a healthy and functioning democracy. She shares how culture has changed since 2009, and how we might challenge ourselves outside of Netflix-driven comfort zones by dining solo.Please rate and review our show on Apple Podcasts and Spotify to help other listeners find our work!Visit TheNewStory.is to listen to our full catalog of interviews.Support our partners and affiliates for exclusive discounts:Bookshop.org: Buy cheap books and support local, independent bookstores with every purchaseFathom Analytics: Get beautiful, secure website data without trading your customers' private browsing data to Google and FacebookFlywheel: Seamless WordPress website hosting on US-based serversHover: Register domains with ease.

As we have been witnessing the protests raging across Iran after the brutal death of Mahsa Amini, we are also hearing of intensified violence against the women there. In order to more deeply understand the current climate, I reached out to my Iranian friend and sister Priya Assal and invited her to join me for an interview. If you want to hear why what is happening in Iran should matter to us here in America and all over the world, then I urge you to listen to Priya's revelations and her personal story of love and longing, and her passion for women's rights in Iran and beyond. Priya Assal is an Educator, Writer, Artist and Women's Community Organizer. She is the founder of Inner Journey Practices, an educational non-profit organization dedicated to the empowerment of Farsi-speaking women worldwide. Priya holds a BFA from the California College of Arts and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She is also a certified Holistic Health teacher, a certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor and a certified Women's Rite of Passage Facilitator in the lineage of Sarah Durham Wilson. In her Medium article she writes: "Today's Iranian “Women, Life, Freedom” slogan is 1969's American “My body my choice”, and is exposing yet again the shadow of the old beast at play: Patriarchal Tyranny. Patriarchal Tyranny is a global curse inflicting violence upon most of the world's population, including the citizens of seemingly free countries. The fact of the matter is that nearly everyone is oppressed by the corrupt systems born of this beast; systems that define the norms and shape the worldview of human beings. In countries like Iran, Patriarchal tyranny is in your face. It's undeniable and felt at every corner and in every room. However, in countries like the United States or in Europe, it's cleverly disguised under pretend freedom and comforts, and therefore harder to recognize and defeat.” Priya is an artist, activist, writer, educator and a Mature Feminine Rites of Passage Practitioner. She is passionate, determined and committed to using her gifts and voice in service to the liberation of Iranian women, and all women. As the founder of Art of the Inner Journey Education her work serves to provide free education, transformation and Inner liberation to Iranian women so that they may experience reclamation and healing from patriarchal and terrorist rule. Please support Priya's work to assist Iranian women by donating here (https://www.innerjourneypractices.com/donation) Priya shares some of the history on the Hijab and how it has changed over the last 43 years. How Mahsa Amini has become the most used hashtag and really what it means to be a Key code How Iran was considered the Paris of the middle wast in the 60's and what happened after that We discuss how oppression exists all around the world and some is very hidden and some is in plain sight How consumerism and capitalism affects us at a very deep level - increasing the poverty aspect We speak of the loneliness that exists in particular in the United States versus in Iran and how we need to find our joy and comfort in community Iranian women are putting everything at risk because they have nothing left to lose; when everything has been taken away from you life isn't worth living anymore How curiosity and education about Iran or other cultures helps to expand the ability to identify with other women For transformation there are three key aspects: Absolute honesty with yourself Courage Humility We need to prevent a repeat of history. What is the symbolic nature of hair cutting that many Iranian women are doing

When we get knocked down, we get back up again, rising from the smush like fruit flies! This week, the ladies are covering two war-time journalists separated by hundreds of years but have a surprising amount in common. First, Kelley tells the story of Marie Colvin, a war journalist who looked like she stepped out of a Bond film, but instead of taking out enemy spies, she sought to cover the tragedy and chaos of war- no matter the cost. Then, Emily covers Mary Katharine Goddard, a Revolutionary-era printer, book shop proprietor, journalist, and patriot who put her name on the Declaration of Independence. Is it a dragon or Washington?? Doesn't matter because we're wining about herstory! Support the show

Comandanta Ramona became the nom de guerre for the Mayan woman who saw injustice all around when she looked at the way women were treated in her community and the way the Mexican government treated her people, an indigenous population in southern Mexico. Setting aside dreams of having her own family, she instead dedicated her entire to fighting for more rights and freedoms for her impoverished people, who lived in Chiapas. She joined the EZLN, the Zapatista Army of National Liberation, and rose to become one of seven commanders within the organization. She helped recruit more and more women until the army consisted of one-third women. Comandanta Ramona also fought for also fought for and gained women's rights within her community. She created the Revolutionary Women's Law, which consisted of 10 provisions designed to give women more rights, freedom, and put them on a more equal footing with men within their communities and families. 

You know that classic question, if you could have a dinner party with anyone dead or alive, who would it be? Well, Alissa Wilkinson’s new book, Salty: Lessons on Eating, Drinking, and Living from Revolutionary Women, is her fascinating and perhaps a tad unconventional answer to that question. She has gathered a hypothetical table of women who challenged norms and defied conventional wisdom: Ella Baker, Alice B. Toklas, Hannah Arendt, Octavia Butler, Agnes Varda, Elizabeth David, Edna Lewis, Maya Angelou, and Laurie Colwin. And she explores the ways food managed to root these women into their various callings. As the book jacket describes, “Salty is Alissa Wilkinson's invitation to you. Join these sharp, empowered, and often subversive women and discover how to live with courage, agency, grace, smarts, snark, saltiness, and sometimes feasting--even in uncertain times.”Salty is out this week from Broadleaf Books so it seemed like a good time to chat about some of the best food writing out there. So, in addition to sharing some of her favorite books, Alissa also shared her Mount Rushmore list of the best very books of food writing. Alissa Wilkinson is a senior culture reporter and critic at Vox.com, where she writes about film, TV, and culture, often where they intersect with media, religion, and rhetoric. She is also an associate professor of English and humanities at The King's College in New York City, where since 2009 she has taught courses on criticism, cinema studies, literature, and cultural theory.

 Sarah Marcha speaks to the revolutionary science of women's equality called Jineoloji that was developed in the autonomous region of Rojava. Jineoloji is an international movement spanning Europe and the Middle East. In this interview, Sarah discusses the leadership roles of women in the system of Democratic Confederalism, and provides examples of the transformative nature of womans' struggles against patriarchy in Rojava. Of particular importance in Sarah's discussion is her account of the all-encompassing role of self-defense in ensuring and maintaining the revolutionary women's struggle.

Hey Revolutionary Woman, Welcome to my podcast where we'll be discussing all things Healing, Relationships, Growth and Launching out! A space for Revolutionary Women to Soar, Equip our hearts, minds, body and soul! It's Time to Rise! Let's Go! Let's spread the word and bring all our sisters along! ❤️

In this episode, I am so excited to have Ann Shen (@anndanger) on the podcast. Ann Shen is an illustrator, letterer, and best-selling author based in Los Angeles. With over 10 years of industry experience, Ann has worked with major clients, such as Disney, Adobe, NY Times and she's designed everything from theme park artwork to fashion doll packaging. She has written and illustrated 3 best-selling books and has been featured on Forbes, Huffington Post, and many other major press journals. I first came to learn about Ann and her work during my year of career sabbatical, when I decided to embark on my own journey of becoming, to find and reclaim my true self. On that journey, I found her books, especially Legendary Ladies, 50 Goddesses to Empower and Inspire You, to have helped me reclaim my own femininity and personal power as a woman. I also fell in love with her illustrations that captured the magic of our imagination, creative play, and beauty. In this episode, we will be diving into her own journey of becoming and how she gave herself the permission to CREATE HER OWN PATH. In addition to writing and illustrating three best-selling books: Bad Girls Throughout History (2016), Legendary Ladies (2018), Nevertheless, She Wore It (2020), all published by Chronicle Books, Ann will be releasing her 4th book, called Revolutionary Women, on October 18th!!

Chloe Slevin, a 3rd year nursing student at University College Dublin has been painting well-known masterpieces - with a Covid-19 twist. First came 'The Girl with the Surgical Mask' after the famous 'Girl with the Pearl Earring' then she did a version of one of Michaelangelo's famous works. But her most recent painting is that of the 'Corona Lisa' - the Mona Lisa in full PPE and surgical mask, which she's auctioning off for LauraLynn, Ireland's only children's hospice. She joins Emma to talk about her paintings and what it's been like as a trainee nurse during the pandemic. Emma speaks to Dr Koshka Duff who was detained in 2013 after offering a legal advice card to a black teenager during his stop-and-search. On CCTV footage, officers can be heard laughing about her hair, clothes and talking about her underwear. The Metropolitan Police have now apologised and paid the academic compensation for their "sexist, derogatory and unacceptable language". The Ministry of Justice, this week, has announced an unprecedented recruitment drive, to boost the number of magistrates by 4,000. It's part of a £1 million campaign to make the magistracy more representative of the communities it serves. They're aiming to attract people from a wide range of backgrounds, from teachers, bricklayers, stay-at-home mums, and any individuals who can display reason and sound judgment. The step is expected to free up an estimated 1,700 extra days of Crown Court time annually and new recruits are expected to help tackle the backlog of criminal cases caused by the pandemic. Emma speaks to Amie Canham from North Yorkshire, a new Magistrate, as well as Bev Higgs, Chair of the Magistrates Association. Women were contributing to the development of British politics and democracy long before they were agitating for the vote. Very few of them are well known today but all of them contributed something to the world we now inhabit, that's according to Nan Sloane who has written a history of radical, reformist and revolutionary women from the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 to the passing of the Great Reform Act in 1832. Her book is called Uncontrollable Women.

Revolutionary Women of Texas and Mexico (part 2); Hecho en Mexico — the poinsettia

‘Revolutionary Women' tells of the women who shaped Texas and Mexico before, during and after the Mexican Revolution.

Sarah Marcha speaks to the revolutionary science of women's equality called Jineoloji that was developed in the autonomous region of Rojava. Jineoloji is an international movement spanning Europe and the Middle East. In this interview, Sarah discusses the leadership roles of women in the system of Democratic Confederalism, and provides examples of the transformative nature of womans' struggles against patriarchy in Rojava. Of particular importance in Sarah's discussion is her account of the all-encompassing role of self-defense in ensuring and maintaining the revolutionary women's struggle. More information about the Jineoloji Academy can be found at: http://jineoloji.org/en/ If you have questions, feel free to email: jineolojicenter@riseup.net Theme music by AwareNess

"The artist has the ability to direct the attention of the audience. If you agree to engage with their work, then they will show you something. And you agree to pay attention to that thing. And I think the act of attending to things is basically the act of love. And when I look at the life of Christ, he's forever drawing people's attention to things as lessons or just things they wouldn't have seen otherwise: a person they would have passed by, or a lesson from nature, or something that they would have missed. That discipline and virtue of attention flies directly in the face of everything that we experienced today."What is the role of entertainment in human flourishing? Vox film critic Alissa Wilkinson reflects on how her early life formed her critical and cultural sensibilities, the role of entertainment in a flourishing life, how biblical interpretation lends itself to the attentive task of the critic, the challenge of boredom and seeing entertainment as mere consumption, and how creating art and watching film well cultivates the virtues of attention and hospitality. Not to mention: The saddest song ever to score a film, why film is not a storytelling medium, how Jesus and Terrence Malick direct our attention, and much more.

Renee and Mariquita talk about some lesser discussed women from history, Las Soldaderas (or Las Adelitas) from the Mexican Revolution and Florence Howe, the founder of the Feminist Press and considered to be the mother of Women’s Studies as an academic discipline. Mariquita breaks down the contributions made by the soldaderas in an effort to gain citizenship and equality, and how the patriarchy (once again) worked to minimize the work done by marginalized groups. Renee explores the legacy left by Howe, and the impact Howe’s work has had on publishing, education, and the feminist movement as a whole.

In the wake of so many sexual harassment and sexual misconduct allegations, we here concerns of "sex panic" and McCarthyism from some cultural critics. Many of them are actual on the cultural left. Jocelyn Olcott (https://history.duke.edu/people/jocelyn-olcott) and I talk about this and a host of related issues in this episode of Give and Take. Jocelyn Olcott is Associate Professor of History and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University. Mexico. Her first book, Revolutionary Women in Postrevolutionary Mexico, explores questions of gender and citizenship in the 1930s. Her second book, International Women’s Year: The Greatest Consciousness-Raising Event in History considers the history and legacies of the United Nation’s first world conference on women in 1975 in Mexico City (Oxford University Press, forthcoming Spring 2017). Her current project, a biography of the activist and folksinger Concha Michel, a one-time Communist who became an icon of maternalist feminism and a vocal advocate for recognizing the economic importance of subsistence labors, is under contract with Duke University Press. The book follows Michel's life story from the late nineteenth century to the late twentieth to examine the ways that the concept, labor, and policies surrounding “motherhood” articulated with major shifts in political-economic thought — from late-nineteenth-century liberalism to revolutionary nationalism, populism, modernization theory, dependency theory, and neoliberalism. Special Guest: Jocelyn Olcott.
