With family gatherings upcoming over the holidays and emergence of AI everywhere we look, here's my 2011 episode with Sherry Turkle, Professor of the Social Studies of Science and Technology at MIT, about her book ALONE TOGETHER Why We Expect More from Technology, Less from Each Other. At that point, Sherry had already been studying the relationships between people and technology for decades, and ALONE TOGETHER signaled a bit of a departure for her. She even called it “a book of repentance.” It was one of the first books to warn about what was being threatened or lost in our headlong rush to 24/7 engagement with screens.

Today on The Social Studies Show, we're exploring how culture, creativity, and commerce intersect to shape opportunity in music, sports, and advertising. Our guest, Olukoya Davis, has spent over 20 years building bridges between culture and commerce — helping artists, athletes, and brands tell stories that move people and markets. Currently, he is Senior Director of  West Coast Sales at Vevo, where he drives revenue and partnerships across CTV and digital platforms. Before that, he served as Vice President of Brand Partnerships at the NBPA, and held leadership roles at Roc Nation, Complex, NBC Sports, Disney, and Warner Bros. Beyond the boardroom, Olukoya helped grow Misha's Foods from a farmers market brand into major retail stores, and founded The Entersection Group — a strategy firm focused on authentic partnerships across culture, content, and community. He's also the Board President of 100 Black Men of Los Angeles, an MBA grad from Hampton University, and a proud dad — using mentorship and access to empower the next generation of creatives and leaders.

In this episode of China Field Notes, Scott Kennedy talks with Adam Webb, Co-Director of the Hopkins-Nanjing Center. Drawing on Kennedy's own experience as an HNC student and Webb's long tenure on the faculty, they discuss what makes the Center unique in the landscape of international higher education institutions and how this dual-language, dual-university model fosters exchange and mutual understanding. Webb also reflects on how the Center has navigated political shifts, the pandemic, and growing skepticism towards engagement, while preserving academic freedom and open dialogue. The conversation concludes with a discussion of shifting national identities in the United States and China, how these dynamics are felt on campus and in the classroom, and the importance of broadening debates beyond the two countries.    Adam K Webb is Co-Director of the Hopkins-Nanjing Centre (HNC), where he also serves as Resident Professor of Political Science. He has been a faculty member since 2008. He previously taught at Princeton and Harvard and was a Visiting Scholar at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. His research interests cut broadly across political thought, globalization, and critiques of modernity. He is the author of four books, including Beyond the Global Culture War (2006), A Path of Our Own: An Andean Village and Tomorrow's Economy of Values (2009), Deep Cosmopolis: Rethinking World Politics and Globalisation (2015), and his most recent book, The World's Constitution: Spheres of Liberty in the Future Global Order (published January 2025) which offers a radically different vision of future world order that could work in a global space while shifting the balance of power from state back to society. He received his AB summa cum laude in Social Studies from Harvard and his MA and PhD in Politics from Princeton.

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Cooke-Civics-11-5-25.mp3 Whatever happened to civics class?Once upon a time, every student needed two or three semesters of civics to graduate high school. Today, “social studies” has replaced it—and most students can't explain the difference. What changed? In this opening lecture, Pastor Matt exposes the theological shift behind that subtle terminology change and the seismic worldview upheaval that followed. What was once taught as a science—anchored in divine order, objective truth, and fixed moral law—has been recast as a humanity, rooted in relativism and feeling. The result? The America our forefathers envisioned—built on biblical foundations and covenantal responsibility—is being slowly replaced by something completely different.

When – and how – did Athenian democracy begin? There is no unambiguous answer to this question. This lecture explores one plausible origin: the popular uprising in 508 BCE overthrowing foreign invaders (who had previously expelled an Athenian-bred family of tyrants). In the aftermath of that revolution, the Athenians – led by Kleisthenes – reorganised their political system to foster new identities and interactions. As further political and social changes were made, Athenian democracy took shape in the imaginations of contemporaries and of later generations.This lecture was recorded by Professor Melissa lane on the 16th of October 2025 at Barnards Inn Hall, London.Melissa Lane is the Class of 1943 Professor of Politics, Princeton University and is also Associated Faculty in the Department of Classics and Department of Philosophy.
