Podcasts about school closings

This week, award-winning writer and scholar Eve L. Ewing discusses her new book Original Sins: The (Mis)education of Black and Native Children and the Construction of American Racism. She is interviewed by AWM President Carey Cranston. This conversation originally took place February 10, 2025 and was recorded live at the American Writers Museum.We hope you enjoy entering the Mind of a Writer.AWM PODCAST NETWORK HOMEMore about Original Sins:If all children could just get an education, the logic goes, they would have the same opportunities later in life. But this historical tour de force makes it clear that the opposite is true: The U.S. school system has played an instrumental role in creating and upholding racial hierarchies, preparing children to expect unequal treatment throughout their lives.In Original Sins, Ewing demonstrates that our schools were designed to propagate the idea of white intellectual superiority, to “civilize” Native students and to prepare Black students for menial labor. Education was not an afterthought for the Founding Fathers; it was envisioned by Thomas Jefferson as an institution that would fortify the country's racial hierarchy. Ewing argues that these dynamics persist in a curriculum that continues to minimize the horrors of American history. The most insidious aspects of this system fall below the radar in the forms of standardized testing, academic tracking, disciplinary policies, and uneven access to resources.By demonstrating that it's in the DNA of American schools to serve as an effective and underacknowledged mechanism maintaining inequality in this country today, Ewing makes the case that we need a profound reevaluation of what schools are supposed to do, and for whom. This book will change the way people understand the place we send our children for eight hours a day.EVE L. EWING is a writer, scholar, and cultural organizer from Chicago. She is the award-winning author of four books: the poetry collections Electric Arches and 1919, the nonfiction work Ghosts in the Schoolyard: Racism and School Closings on Chicago's South Side, and a novel for young readers, Maya and the Robot. She is the co-author (with Nate Marshall) of the play No Blue Memories: The Life of Gwendolyn Brooks. She has written several projects for Marvel Comics, most notably the Ironheart series, and is currently writing Black Panther. Ewing is an associate professor in the Department of Race, Diaspora, and Indigeneity at the University of Chicago. Her work has been published in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The New York Times, and many other venues.

Residents Confront Austell Council Over New Leaf & Limb Fee All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA (06.26.24 CU OF GA FREE CHECKING_REV_FINAL)STORY 1: Winter Storm Expected Friday, Possible Icy Conditions and School ClosingsCobb County is bracing for either snow or freezing rain on Friday, with an 80% chance of precipitation, potentially leading to icy roads and dangerous travel conditions. The National Weather Service indicates uncertainty about whether the area will see snow or freezing rain, with possible snow accumulation of 1-3 inches or 0.10 inches of ice. Governor Brian Kemp urges residents to stay informed and prepared. School closures are possible, with updates from local districts expected. Residents are advised to stay home, but if travel is necessary, they should drive cautiously and be prepared with items like cat litter for traction and blankets for warmth.STORY 2: Carter eulogized inside U.S. Capitol RotundaThe life of former President Jimmy Carter was celebrated in Washington, D.C., with a memorial service in the Capitol Rotunda. Political leaders praised his achievements both as president and in his extensive post-presidential work, including founding the Carter Center and volunteering with Habitat for Humanity. Vice President Kamala Harris highlighted his extraordinary legacy, while U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune commended his selfless service and dedication to good causes. Carter's casket, transported from Georgia, was honored with a military procession. He will lie in state until a national funeral service at the National Cathedral.STORY 3: Residents Confront Austell Council Over New Leaf & Limb FeeAustell residents and Councilwoman Meredith Adams are concerned about a new $15 monthly fee for leaf and limb pickup, introduced to address budget shortfalls after a proposed property tax increase was rejected. The fee, approved by the city council, funds yard waste removal and bulk trash pickup. Adams criticized the fee as a budget-balancing tactic, suggesting instead to cut the police department's 2 / 3budget, which has significantly increased. Residents have voiced opposition, arguing for a more equitable fee structure. Adams advocates for appointing a city manager to ensure departmental accountability and budget adherence.We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Despite opposition, Cupid is committed to addressing disparities within the county and driving change. She emphasized her dedication to progress, acknowledging the difficulties but expressing determination to move Cobb County forward. Cupid, who made history as the first Black person and woman to chair the county, celebrated her Guyanese heritage during the ceremony. Her family and community leaders praised her resilience and leadership, highlighting her commitment to service and faith.STORY 5: Geoff Duncan booted from Georgia Republican PartyFormer Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan has been expelled from the Georgia Republican Party for endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president. The state GOP's executive committee unanimously passed a resolution citing Duncan's actions as forfeiting his Republican status. Duncan initially fell out of favor for not supporting former President Trump's efforts to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results. He later endorsed Biden and then Harris, actively campaigning for her. The resolution also accused him of opposing Republican candidates Burt Jones and Herschel Walker. Duncan criticized the party's focus, suggesting they address more pressing issues. The expulsion bars him from future Republican candidacies and party events.We’ll be back in a moment Break: DRAKE (Drake Realty (Cobb County)STORY 6: Kennesaw Parks & Recreation to Host Annual Book SwapKennesaw Parks & Recreation is hosting its annual Book Swap on January 25 from 8 to 11 a.m. at the Ben Robertson Community Center.

In this episode of Traffic Safety Thursday on The Valley Today, host Janet Michael and Lt. Warren Gosnell from the Frederick County Sheriff's Office cover a variety of topics centered around traffic safety and local issues. They examined the rationale behind school closures during inclement weather conditions. Goz explained the complexities and safety considerations that go into these decisions, emphasizing the importance of looking beyond individual perspectives to understand the broader implications. Janet asked a specific legal question about 1950s cars without seatbelts, and Goz clarified that vehicles manufactured before a certain date are grandfathered in and not required to have seatbelts. They also discussed the enforcement of speed limits in school zones, particularly focusing on what happens if the school zone lights come on while driving through. Goz elaborated on the procedures officers follow to ensure fairness in enforcement. They touched on the purpose and functionality of speed signs, which collect data to help manage and maintain traffic safety efficiently. Announcements were made about the logistics of the upcoming Middletown Christmas Parade, including street closures and timings. Finally, Goz provided some crucial traffic safety reminders for the upcoming holiday season, urging everyone to slow down, remain vigilant, and avoid distractions to ensure they arrive at their destinations safely.

Diamond Sharp's Super Sad Black Girl is a love letter to her hometown of Chicago, where the speaker finds solace and community with her literary idols in hopes of answering the question: What does it look like when Black women are free?Lorraine Hansberry and Gwendolyn Brooks appear throughout these poems, counseling the speaker as she navigates her own depression and exploratory questions about the “Other Side,” as do Sandra Bland, Rekia Boyd, and other Black women who have been murdered by police. Sharp's poetry is self-assured, playful, and imaginative, reminiscent of Langston Hughes with its precision and brevity. The book explores purgatorial, in-between spaces that the speaker occupies as she struggles to find a place and time where she can live safely and freely. With her skillful use of repetition, particularly in her series of concrete poems, lines and voices echo across the book so the reader, too, feels suspended within Sharp's lyric moments. Super Sad Black Girl is a compassionate and ethereal depiction of mental illness from a promising and powerful poet.Join us for this livestream of the in-person book launch event for Super Sad Black Girl with Diamond Sharp, Eve Ewing, Raych Jackson and Jamila Woods. -------------------------------------------------- Speakers: Diamond Sharp is a poet and essayist from Chicago.
