This is one of those conversations that stays with you. Sheila Williams is a coach doing powerful work with men—yes, men—who are showing up grumpy, resentful, and tired... and don't know why. You'll hear us talk about how society's shifting expectations have left many men feeling unappreciated and unsure of their role, and how Sheila gently guides them toward reclaiming their confidence. We dig into referral dynamics, marketing with “soft touch,” the difference between coaching men and women, and how your energy shows up before you even say a word. If you've ever coached a man—or loved one—who “doesn't do emotions,” this episode is for you.
Parent expressed concern about ties to slavery The cakewalk at the Garrison School PTA's annual Fall Festival has been canceled out of concern that it is insensitive to Black people. This year's festival is scheduled for Saturday (Oct. 19) from noon to 2 p.m. While there are many accounts of the origin of cakewalks, most say they date to the 19th century when slaves would dance in a circle in what may have begun as a mockery of the formal dancing of plantation owners. The best dancers won a cake. The cakewalk later became a regular part of minstrel shows, with whites performing in blackface. The phrase "takes the cake" comes from the cakewalk. In the PTA cakewalk, which had been part of the festival for at least 10 years, participants purchased tickets to walk in a circle, stepping on markers with numbers while music played. When the music stopped, a number was drawn and whoever was standing on that number could select a homemade cake. The game continued until all the donated cakes were taken. This year, a parent expressed concern that the cakewalk "has historical roots tied to slavery," said Gregory Stowell, the superintendent. After research, Stowell said "the PTA and the district collaboratively agreed that in its current iteration, we just couldn't continue it, given what we now know about the history of the cakewalk." Stowell added that the district is striving to set an example consistent with its Vision of a Graduate, which includes diversity, equity and inclusion and integrity and empathy. "The district does not want to sponsor any event on our grounds that is, in any way, shape or form, making any of our community members feel like it's not inclusive and it's not welcoming," he said. In a statement on Thursday (Oct. 17), the PTA said: "The school's administration brought the controversial history of the cakewalk to the PTA's attention. We did our own research on the tradition's historical ties to slavery and, after discussion, our board was in full agreement with the administration that the cakewalk was not aligned with our school's and community's inclusive values. "We feel we can create a really fun event that builds community and raises money for both the PTA and the eighth grade, while being culturally sensitive, without the cakewalk. We care about the entire Garrison community and want to be thoughtful about the types of events we support." The statement also said the PTA had discussed replacing the cakewalk with a cake-decorating contest, "but given the breadth of festivities we already had planned" - including a chili cook-off, touch-a-truck, face painting, an auction, bouncy castle and pumpkin-themed games - "we ultimately decided to forgo it entirely." Brandon and Sheila Williams, the parents of two Garrison School graduates and three children currently enrolled, expressed frustration at the decision. Brandon Williams suggested renaming the cakewalk after diversity, equity and inclusion. "We could call it the DEI Walk," he said. "Why can't we just have a Fall Festival without everyone freaking out that we're hurting people's feelings?" Williams argued that the PTA version of the cakewalk is not insulting to anyone. "It's musical chairs," he said. "They're walking around. When the music stops, they freeze. You call the number. If you're on that number, you win." In 2022, PTO Today, a magazine for parent-teacher organizations, published a guide on how to set up a cakewalk as a carnival game but noted that "because of the history of the term cakewalk and the activities it represented, we have updated this article with the term musical cakes instead."

Ten minutes with... is a special series presented by Coode Street that sees readers and booklovers from around the world talk about what they're reading right now and what's getting them through these difficult times. Hugo Award-winning Asimov's editor Sheila Williams talk about the early days of the pandemic in Manhattan, the challenges of finding time to read anything other than the 800 submissions per month she sees at the magazine, her good luck to have travelled to Ireland and the Canary Islands just before the lockdown began, her new anthology in the Twelve Tomorrows series from MIT Press, and, of course, what she's been reading. Books mentioned include: Entanglements: Tomorrow's Lovers, Families, and Friends edited by Sheila Williams The Wright Sister by Patty Dann Nine Bar Blues by Sheree Renee Thomas Doomsday Book by Connie Willis A Song for a New Day by Sarah Pinsker
With her new short story anthology, Entanglements: Tomorrow's Lovers, Families, and Friends (MIT Press), editor Sheila Williams brings together a panoply of voices to explore how technology and scientific advances have on the deepest human relationships. We talk about Sheila's nearly 40 years editing science fiction stories at Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, how she manages to balance new and diverse voices with a foundation of SF's history, how she copes with receiving ~800 stories a month (while only being able to buy 5-6), and technology's greater role in day-to-day life and what that means for writers' and readers' imagination and expectations. We also get into her author freakouts (like going blank when she met Samuel R. Delany many years ago), how her philosophy background helps her as an editor, missing cons and festivals, the challenge of editing an author in translation (in this case Xia Jia), and more.

With a love for education and a background in helping others, she remained in the Social Service Industry for over 10 years. She saw the correlation between at-risk students and social/emotional disorders and decided to make the transition to higher education administration. Dr. Williams has a natural love for life and finds joy in helping others to reach their fullest potential. She believes in taking adversity and turning it into an opportunity to propel oneself to the next level. Dr. Williams is an avid reader and enjoys traveling, writing, researching and spending time with her family friends. She often is encountered by those who can’t believe her story, so with that, she decided to write her autobiography. In her first book (of a 3 volume autobiography), ‘My Mother’s Keeper’, Dr. Williams gives you an introduction into her life, the mystery, the challenges and the truth behind what motivated Dr. Williams to persevere and accomplish all the things she’s set out to do. She is in the process of completing her 2nd book and continues to live her life as an inspiration to others.
