Artspeak Radio, Wednesday, April 22, 2026, 9am -10am CST, 90.1fm KKFI Kansas City Community Radio, streaming live audio www.kkfi.org Producer/host Maria Vasquez Boyd welcomes artists GK Callahan & Laura White, Consuelo Cruz Belger Arts, & Cody Joliff Powell Gardens CEO, Director Teisha M. Bankston & Artistic Director Unicorn Theater Ernie Nolan. GK CALLAHAN & LAURA WHITE- Englewood Art Center presents Laura White- In Full Bloom, a solo exhibition by KC blind artist Laura White. On view from March 20 through May 16, 2026, with an opening reception on Friday, March 20 at 6:00 PM.“You have never seen anything like this — neither have I.” —White In Full Bloom is an immersive, cheeky, tactile exhibition featuring beaded quilts and sculptural works created from beads and found materials. Inspired by the artist's love of gardening and nature, the work draws from her favorite flowers- flowers she can no longer see, but continues to engage with through memory and touch. White's practice expands the tradition of American quilt-making into a richly textured visual and sensory language, expressed through bold, large- scale works. Drawing on her background in graphic design, White constructs her quilts through a monumental reinterpretation of fused beading toys, resulting in surfaces that pulse with color, pattern, labor, and intention. The imagery within each work emerges from White's visual memory, formed before she lost her eyesight due to retinitis pigmentosa and usher syndrome. Because of her limited vision, White often collaborates with friends and family in selecting colors, embedding each piece with a communal authorship that mirrors the social histories of traditional quilts. The result is work that is at once deeply personal and collective. Art reentered White's life in 2016 through a collaborative project that reignited her studio practice and led to local recognition. Her work has since been exhibited in the KC area and at institutions, including the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. In Full Bloom marks a significant moment in White's artistic journey — not a return, but a flourishing. The exhibition invites viewers to slow down, to experience art through touch, memory, and presence, and to reconsider long-held assumptions about vision, access, and who art is for.

BANKSTON, Director & ERNIE NOLAN, Artistic Director of Unicorn Theatre Don't Touch My Hair By Douglas Lyons May 6 – 24, 2026 Unicorn Theatre | Levin Stage Directed by Teisha M. Bankston About the Show: Don't Touch My Hair Written by Douglas Lyons | Directed by Teisha M. Bankston Don't Touch My Hair is an exploration of Black womanhood, identity, and cultural ownership, with a sharp comedic wit. The play follows lifelong best friends Eemani and Jade, who, during a casual afternoon together, are launched into a surreal hallucination. It's a journey that transports them through time to confront historical and cultural oppressors. Through humor, imagination, and sharp dialogue, the two women confront the past to reclaim their power. The play is filled with satire and social commentary, using comedy as a lens for examining serious social issues. Rather than centering pain, Don't Touch My Hair creates space for laughter, reflection, and conversation. Why It Matters Don't Touch My Hair's power comes from shifting the conversation about racial injustice and confronting it through humor and the joyful bond of women. It invites audiences to engage with complex issues in a way that is thought-provoking and deeply human. Key Themes & Takeaways Black Identity At its core, the play examines the significance of Blackness as both a personal and political expression. It challenges audiences to consider who “owns” culture and what it means to reclaim it. Boundaries “Don't touch my hair” represents the right to personal space, respect, and self-definition. The play highlights how Black women's bodies and identities are open for commentary, and pushes back against that norm. The “Angry Black Woman” Stereotype The story interrogates the societal expectation that Black women must shrink themselves to be accepted. It confronts stereotypes that label assertiveness as anger, and instead presents characters who are expressive, complex, and unapologetically themselves. Comedy as a Tool for Confrontation Rather than approaching racism solely through trauma, the play uses humor to disarm and engage. By making audiences laugh, it opens the door for deeper reflection on difficult topics without centering harm done to Black people. Friendship & Joy Eemani and Jade's relationship is a common thread throughout the story. Their bond reflects the importance of safe spaces where Black women can exist fully, speak freely, and find joy while navigating challenges. Eemani and Jade light up to unwind, but their blunt is laced with more than weed. A wild hallucination gives them superpowers to confront the past in a hilarious, eye-opening journey. This electrifying play celebrates Black womanhood and self-discovery.

The installation will be on view May 2 through June 21, 2026, in the Conservatory at Powell Gardens. The piece created as part of the Fountain Project, titled Teaming with Life, will launch the Gardens' spring art-focused event, Painted Garden. Selected through a national call for artists, the Fountain Project brings together an eight-person collective of glassmakers from across the United States: Abigail Amundson, Michael Carson, Keegan O'Brien, Jacqueline Polofka, Ori Shir, Lauryl Sidwell, Brandon Smith, and Tyler Suter. The team includes three lead gaffers and six assistants who worked collaboratively to fabricate and install the large-scale piece. The artists gathered at the Belger Glass Annex to create the fountain's intricate functional and decorative components using traditional glassblowing techniques before assembling the installation onsite at Powell Gardens. Their work transforms the Conservatory into a tranquil retreat inspired by the landscapes of the Midwest prairie. At the center of the space, the fountain is adorned with luminous blown-glass forms that echo the shapes and colors of prairie blossoms. Soft golds, lavender tones, and prairie blues shimmer in the light, creating a peaceful atmosphere where visitors are invited to slow down, sit in a rocking chair, and enjoy the interplay of glass, water, and spring blooms. The result is a serene environment where art, nature, and heritage come together in quiet harmony.

About the Guest Ben Blair was raised in Sparta, Illinois, where he grew up helping on his family's corn, soy, wheat, and farrow-to-finish farm. He always enjoyed the numbers behind how things worked, which led him to study engineering at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. After finishing his engineering degree, he felt the pull back toward animal health and entered the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. Following a short time in clinical practice, he returned to Illinois to complete a PhD with Dr. Jim Lowe. His work focused on the cull sow marketing network and strengthened his interest in advanced analytics, machine learning, and applying AI to livestock systems. He then spent two years at the University of Minnesota as a researcher while also running a consulting business centered on data and AI projects in agriculture. In 2023 Blair returned to the University of Illinois, where he now serves as an assistant professor in Livestock Health. His research combines infectious disease modeling with practical applications of AI in veterinary medicine and modern farming. He lives in Villa Grove, Illinois, with his wife Cathy and their three children, Charlie, Liz, and Lincoln. What can you expect to learn from this episode of Popular Pig? How AI really works — breaking down machine learning, computer vision, and language models in everyday terms. Why the swine industry needs “homegrown” AI solutions that understand how farms truly operate. The biggest challenges holding back AI adoption in ag — from messy data to slow decision-making. How “crawl, walk, run” thinking can help farms start small with AI before chasing advanced automation. Ben's “golden nugget.”

Generations born into technology -- so-called "digital natives" -- have grown up with a world view shaped by digital interaction. They're considering how it has shaped their lives in a student-led forum at Southern Illinois University Carbondale tonight. Franklin Kimmell, a fourth year doctoral student and Assistant Introductory Course Coordinator for the school of communication studies is organizing the discussion.

John Shaw, Director of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, joins Megan Lynch ahead of an event this week that will address changes in funding, demographics, and the AI revolution in higher education. He points to a recent assignment where his students 'aggressively' used AI.

At the Glass Art Society's (GAS) 2025 conference, Trailblazing New Traditions, held in May in Arlington and Fort Worth, Texas, Zachary Layhew and Hoseok Youn presented a unique collaborative glassblowing demonstration where Youn's Venetian fantasy vessels intersected with the baroque, cubist influences of Layhew's practice. The artists shared their unique approaches to traditional techniques and designs, both makers transforming the context of tradition through the lens of their original personalities. The result was a figurative sculpture constructed from historical goblets and decorative stemware, combined with the line patterns of cane. Goblets and cane are common and popular in the glass tradition, but this demonstration showed the community a creative and innovative way to elevate those methods to new frontiers while paying respect to their origins. Layhew started his glass career at the age of 14 by taking an introductory intensive at the Pittsburgh Glass Center (PGC) called Teen Bootcamp. He quickly fell in love with the material and the community surrounding it. Through the years, the artist has focused on his technical skills in glass and developing his personal voice through sculpture. His work revolves around a combination of glassblowing, cold working, and then further reheating, manipulating, and assembling the pieces.  Working as an artist and instructor at PGC, Layhew assists other Pittsburgh artists in his spare time. He will teach Lines, Rings, and Patterned Things at Foci, the Minnesota Center for Glass Arts, from November 12 through 16. In December, the artist has a residency at Keystone College, Factoryville, Pennsylvania, and through the rest of 2025 and 2026, he will teach eight-week classes at PGC. Additionally, Layhew creates production work that is sold online and in person.  A South Korean glass artist specializing in glassblowing, Youn holds a BFA degree in glass and ceramics from Namseoul University, Cheon Ahn, Korea, and earned an MFA in glass from Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois. He has taught at Bowling Green State University as an adjunct professor, was a studio artist at Toledo Museum of Art and a studio lead at Belger Arts in Kansas City, Missouri.  Youn's artistic practice focuses on Venetian traditional glass, figurative sculptures, and photography. He is inspired by heroes and villains based on pop culture and toys. His work reflects the image of his ideal successful self, combining crystal clear glass, elaborate vessel forms, intricate stemware, and abundant details. In 2026, he will teach a workshop at Pilchuck Glass School, session 7.

Narrating Irish Female Development, 1916-2018 (Edinburgh UP, 2024) studies narratives of Irish female and feminized development, arguing that these postmodern  narratives present Irish female maturation as disordered and often deliberately disorderly. The first full-length study of the Irish female  coming of age story, the book develops a feminist psychoanalytic narratology, derived from the belated oedipalization of Joyce's bildungsheld, to read these stories. This study argues that all Irish maturation stories are shaped by the uneven and belated maturation story  of the Irish republic itself, which took as its avatar the Irish woman,  whose citizenship in that republic was unrealized, as indeed was her citizenship in an Irish republic of letters.

Discusses texts by James Joyce, John McGahern, Hannah Lynch, Kate O'Brien, Lady Gregory, Maud Gonne, Mary Colum, Elizabeth Bowen, Edna O'Brien, Dervla Murphy, Clare Boylan, Nuala O'Faolain, Eavan Boland, Anne Enright, Claire Keegan, Eimear McBride, Éilís ní Dhuibhne, Melatu Uche Okorie, and Soula Emmanuel Examines the form, narration, and content of fictional, non-fictional, and national narratives Develops a feminist psychoanalytic narratology Synthesizes historical, sociojuridical, feminist, post-colonial, and literary historical narratives of Irish development Jane Elizabeth Dougherty is Professor in the School of Literature, Writing and Digital Humanities and affiliate faculty in the School of Africana and Multicultural Studies at Southern Illinois University Carbondale.

Leaders are crunched right now. Many are valiantly trying to adopt empathetic and Compassionate Leadership models to adapt to what employees on the market demand new models of leadership that are more human, but some still struggle to balance that with making tough business decisions, setting boundaries, and achieving high-performance standards - serendipitously, the subject of my next book. Today, Dr. Rebecca Eldredge, a licensed psychologist who supports socially conscious leaders, changemakers, and organizations shares how leaders can identify signs of overwhelm and burnout in their lives and respond to compassionate fatigue. We discussed the huge financial costs to your organization of ignoring mental health, or pushing through when others are counting on you. We also talked about why allowing emotions at work is key to psychological safety, and how leaders who might be reluctant can get more comfortable making space and time for emotions in the workplace to increase engagement, performance, and retention. Take a deep breath and take a listen. To access the episode transcript, please click on the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.com Key Takeaways:The more familiar you are with the state of relaxation in yourself, the easier you will recognize when burnout begins and you are not in that state of calm. You don't have to have days or weeks of calm to draw on, it can be even a moment of peace to recognize those calm, nervous system queues. Being empathetic doesn't mean you don't do the hard things, it means you're deliberate and thoughtful when communicating and making those hard decisions. With the skyrocketing costs of healthcare (often as a direct result of stress and burnout), we cannot afford to not take care of our mental and emotional health. "You're much more equipped to make solid decisions when you are connected and when you are in an empathetic and compassionate role with others - and also with yourself." — Dr. Rebecca EldredgeAbout Dr. Rebecca Eldredge: For the past 20 years, Dr. Rebecca Eldredge has used her commitment to mental health, cultural competence, and social justice to support individuals and organizations to cultivate compassion for themselves as they bring compassion and justice to their organizations and communities.
