I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is one of the most groundbreaking artists working today, Karon Davis. Hailed for her life-size sculptures, that she covers in white plaster dust and bases on her own or friend's bodies, Davis's works often take the form of installations, that very powerfully explore vital narratives of current and historical political events, as well as speak to the history of dance and performance. While they speak on a universal level, Davis especially looks to issues of history, race and violence in the US, memorialising key injustices witnessed by innocent victims from the 20th century, and beyond. By executing her figures in a stark shade of white, she also speaks to Western beauty ideals and standards that have been entrenched in our society since classical times. Brought up by a family of performers, Davis was exposed to the arts at a young age, the excitement of entertainment but also the reality of what people with these careers go through. And it's this insight that she gives us in her work – showing us both the pain and ecstasy to make something deemed beautiful, as her mother said, which was the title for her recent Salon 94 show: Beauty Must Suffer. Although a trained ballerina in her youth, Davis turned to filmmaking, studying at Spellman College, but her love of performance has stayed with her in her work. Entering an exhibition by Davis is like stepping into another world akin to watching a film or ballet playing out in front of you: there's narrative, costume, drama, a beginning and an end, but also beauty and pain. In 2012 Davis, along with her late husband Noah, founded the Underground Museum in Los Angeles, a groundbreaking space that featured the work of Black artists. And, most recently, Davis' work has been featured at the Hammer Museum, Jeffrey Deitch, Salon 94, and is in the collection of MOCA Los Angeles, LACMA, The Hammer Museum, and the Brooklyn Museum, among others. For those in New York, she has just installed a major sculpture on the High Line, of a ballerina taking her final bow, in conjunction with her exhibition that looked at the process of ballet, as well as the passion and resilience integral to life as a dancer, and artist. -- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.instagram.com/famm.mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 ENJOY!!!

We talked with:Anthony Chin-Quee, M.D., is a board-certified otolaryngologist with degrees from Harvard University and Emory University School of Medicine. An award-winning storyteller with The Moth, he has been on the writing staff of Fox's "The Resident" and a medical adviser for ABC's "Grey's Anatomy." He is the author of the memoir "I Can't Save You."Alyx B. Porter, M.D., is a neurologist who subspecializes in neuro-oncology. Her clinical focuses include tumors of the brain and spinal cord; neurological complications of cancer and cancer treatment including brain metastases. Dr. Porter is the most senior Black female adult neuro-oncologist in the country. She is passionate about physician workforce diversity. She is a noted philanthropist, having endowed a scholarship at her alma mater, Spellman College, and created ElevateMeD, a nonprofit to support the next generation of diverse physician leaders.We talked about:In this episode, Dr. Millstine and her guests discuss:Numbing yourself is not the answer. Dr. Chin-Quee's book talks about how drugs, alcohol or sex are used to numb the stress and strain of medical training and work. Another coping strategy is to emotionally disassociate from your patients. But Dr. Porter argues she's a better doctor when she cares — and patients can tell when you don't. The challenge is to care without letting these feelings consume you. Dealing with medical fatigue. Sometimes you don't know you're about to burn out until it happens. Dr. Porter starts look for any shift in pattern among learners — are they starting to come in later? Are they getting a little more irritable with patients or colleagues? It's important to really ask, “How are you doing?” and if necessary, ask them multiple times. Create spaces for underrepresented groups in medicine. Despite all the progress (and lip service) paid to diversity, equity and inclusion in medicine, it's still essentially a "club for white guys," Dr. Chin-Quee says. It's important to admit the medical world wasn't made for you, Dr. Chin-Quee says, so you can carve out your own place in it. Dr. Porter talks about systemic changes needed to better support women and people of color in medicine — including scholarships, mentorships and leadership development — which is why she founded ElevateMeD. Can't get enough?Purchase "I Can't Save You."From Bookshop.org.From Amazon.  From Barnes & Noble.  Want to read more about health topics?

THIS WEEK on the GWA Podcast, I interview one of the most renowned artists working in the world right now, Mickalene Thomas. Working across painting, photography, installation, film, collage and more, Thomas, for the past two decades has been instrumental in forging an identity for figuration in the 21st century. Positioning her subjects – bold, beautiful women – in often large-scale work that commands the same power as that of Old Master Painting, Thomas lionises her subjects, whether they be friends, family members or lovers, by imbuing them with glittering rhinestone crystals and rich, colourful patterning, in atmospheres that are full of freedom, full of liberation. Drawing from pop culture and history – think Grace Jones to the 19th century French painters – and striving to encapsulate the beauty and glamour she witnessed in Jet magazine when growing up, Thomas also re-stages, reclaims, art-historical compositions by reworking paintings from the lens of a Black queer woman. In 2013, she said: ‘Portraits are very powerful. They have a great representation and dominance in the world... of trying to capture the essence of someone' and just to prove how powerful this was on her own career, it was after seeing legendary photographer Carrie Mae Weems's Kitchen Table Series, 1990 that Thomas was inspired to pursue art. Switching from law and enrolling in art school at the Pratt Institute, Thomas then went on to earn her MFA from Yale, and has since worked indefatigably to elevate the presence of Black women in art. Thomas has exhibited at the world's most prestigious institutions, from the Brooklyn Museum to MOCA Los Angeles, Spellman College to the ICA in Boston, but she has also been a force at uplifting the careers of others – such as, in recent shows, curating exhibitions alongside her own featuring younger names, making for a more exciting and inclusive art history, that others have followed her in doing.

She was a student activist in the 1960s Sit-In Movement, a member of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), and she worked for the National Council of Negro Women and the American Friends Service Committee. In this episode, Dr. Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons talks with younger organizer DeMonte Alford about the importance of organizing from a position of love, care, and compassion - and with an understanding that communities know what they need. Raised by her grandmother in segregated Memphis, TN - Zoharah tells DeMonte about her path into organizing work. From refusing to move to the back of the bus for white passengers as a teenager in Memphis, to learning about the Student Nonviolent Coordiating Committee while a student at Spellman College in Atlanta. She shares stories of the years she spent working with SNCC in rural Mississippi, the constant threat of violence while doing this work, and how SNCC workers sang and danced in their free time to cope with the intense stress of the work. She also shares wisdom on how to enter into organizing with communities from a place of humility, collaboration, and respect. 

On this episode, Matt passes the mic and, instead of interviewing the guest himself, he publishes an episode of the “Flourish in the Foreign” podcast, where Christine Job interviews Jackie Omotalde.  Jackie begins by reflecting on her first study abroad experience in Germany at age 16, and then talks about attending Spellman College and explains the impact of HBCUs. Next, she discusses her professional trajectory that led her to live and work in Ethiopia.  Jackie then shares her experience living in Indonesia on a Fulbright scholarship, as well as lessons from her time working in Silicon Valley.  She also reflects on nomading as a Black woman, dating abroad, and traveling the world with her daughter.  Jackie then discusses Black American vs. African identity dynamics, especially when living on the continent of Africa.  She also talks about learning and speaking foreign languages, and how living abroad fits into her overall financial plan.  Jackie then shares advice specifically for Black women that aspire to live abroad or who are already traveling the world.  And, finally, she reflects on how her “slow-mad” travel style contributes to her wellness.  FULL SHOW NOTES AVAILABLE AT: www.TheMaverickShow.com

Raised as a military kid, she understands the service and sacrifice mindset of the military family. So it's no surprise that she gives credit to that sacrifice when speaking about how she was able to attend Spellman College, where she received a B.A. in Economics. She received her MBA from CUNY - Baruch Colleg, The Zicklin School of Business, specializing in HR.  After working in human resources, she wanted to branch out and start her own business. Jamie continues to work in human resources because she loves serving the community. The employer-employee relationship has changed, and she loves bridging the gap between them.  Know there is comfort in being anonymous. You have to walk hand in hand with fear.

Then, get on the  IRS website and find out all you can.  When you're a solopreneur, write down everything you're doing. When you're a solopreneur, write down everything you're doing. First, what are you too expensive to do as the CEO. Then, make it make sense for your business.  Get your mindset right.

Program Associate with Annie E. Casey Foundation Chantell Glenn joins the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss the redevelopment of Pittsburgh Yards. Glenn joins host Carol Morgan on the All About Real Estate segment. A proud alumnus of Spellman College, Glenn's professional background of over 20 years is concentrated in community and equity development. In her current role with the Annie E. Casey Foundation, Glenn oversees the development and operations of Pittsburgh Yards. The foundation places a strong focus on place-based work in Atlanta and is a primary investor and advisor for the redevelopment project. Glenn said, “Pittsburgh Yards is an unprecedented opportunity to spur economic equity, job growth and entrepreneurship for the residents.” Through years of collaboration amongst locals and community stakeholders, the vision of Pittsburgh Yards came to life. Once completed, the project will be a vibrant space for residents to work, create, shop, play and aspire. The project will catalyze living wages, employment, long-term careers as well as entrepreneurship opportunities for residents, including parents with young children and those in need of second chances. Glenn said, “We're using design, streetscape and landscaping techniques to encourage community engagement and innovation. We ran the existing streets from the neighboring Pittsburgh neighborhood right onto our site…so everyone can feel welcome to come onto the campus.” Project developers incorporated sustainable design practices and most importantly, cultivated the already existing neighborhood and its accompanying benefits, including access to the 22-mile Atlanta BeltLine loop. Other fundamental components incorporated in the redevelopment of Pittsburgh Yards include healthy eating options, greenspace, community gathering areas as well as the preservation and cultivation of art. Glenn shared the team recently celebrated the completion of Phase I to the 31-acre site with 15 acres already developed. At the heart of Pittsburgh Yards is the Nia Building, a 60,000 square foot anchor to the project named for the Swahili word for purpose. The building houses 100 affordable workspaces, ranging from 100 to 400 square feet. The Nia building's strategic design creates ideal spaces for makers, fabricators and others to accommodate the current growth in trade professions. For creatives, there are areas for mixed media and fashion design as well as businesses offering professional services such as accounting and architecture. There is also a generous amount of shared capacity for coworking members to grow their business without a leasing commitment. Members also have access to meeting rooms, an amphitheater, a shared-use commercial kitchen and a market café. Tune in to the full interview above for additional information on the Annie E.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (02/10/21), we pick up where we ended on our previous broadcast and present more of an episode of the Hank Unplugged podcast. Hank is talking with Mary Grabar, a resident fellow at the Alexander Hamilton Institute for the Study of Western Civilization and the author of Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History that Turned a Generation against America. Hank and Dr. Grabar discuss the altered narrative of Christopher Columbus as an example of Zinn's use of rhetorical tricks to essentially rewrite history, radical liberalism, the radicalization of a Christian college like Spellman College, cultural Marxism in America today, the Zinn Education Project and the growing influence of Howard Zinn globally, and why Grabar felt it necessary to write Debunking Howard Zinn.

​In a world filled with fake news—Research — the ‘R' in CRI — is more critical than ever. While researching Columbus Day, Hank Hanegraaff read countless articles conveying Christopher Columbus as one of history's greatest villains—far from the hero of history we learned about as students. Then Hank realized something. Every article using the same source — Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States. You may not know his name, but he's largely responsible for poisoning the minds of an entire generation. Zinn's influence is wide and his lies won't be resisted unless they're recognized—making Debunking Howard Zinn one of the most important books you could read. Mary Grabar joins Hanegraaff to discuss her critically important book Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation Against America. https://www.equip.org/product/cri-resource-cri2102hup/Topics discussed include: How Hank Hanegraaff discovered Mary Grabar's book Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation Against America while researching for a monologue on Columbus Day (0:25); how was Howard Zinn able to change the historical perspective of so many people? (7:45); how Matt Damon and the film Good Will Hunting made Howard Zinn and his book A People's History of the United States household names(11:00); how did an alleged member of the communist party like Howard Zinn made it mainstream in America? (15:35); the altered narrative of Christopher Columbus as an example of Zinn's use of rhetorical tricks to essentially rewrite history (20:00); radical liberalism (23:00); the radicalization of a Christian college like Spellman College (26:45); cultural Marxism in America today (30:30); the Zinn Education Project and the growing influence of Howard Zinn globally (33:00); why Mary Grabar felt it necessary to write Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation Against America (36:40); the narrative of A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn (40:50); was Christopher Columbus motivated by greed or God? (44:00); the popular idea that there is no objective history or truth (50:30); is America the most racist country in the history of the world? (54:45); The 1619 Project and the goal of reframing American history (58:55); narratives concerning Islam, Christianity and slavery (1:02:00); changing portrayals of President Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War (1:05:40); the changing cultural narrative influencing American children today (1:08:10); Howard Zinn and the Communist Party USA (1:10:00); the Marxist principles of Black Lives Matter as an organization (1:14:15); Howard Zinn, Ho Chi Minh and the use of propaganda (1:18:30); the emotional manipulation of children in the Howard Zinn Education Project (1:20:20); the attacks on Mary and her work (1:23:15).

Dawn Alston serves as Vice President for Business and Financial Affairs and Chief Financial Officer for Spellman College in Atlanta, Georgia. This week on the show, Alston joins Megan Strand for a conversation on finding humility and patience in leadership through crises such as our current pandemic. "As I have gone through this process, I feel one of the changes is that I have become more confident,” she says. “There is less time for planning. At first, we had to make strategic decisions very quickly. That leaves little time for self-doubt. … As time has come on, I’ve become more confident not just in myself, but in my teammates and my colleagues. It’s never a one-man show.” Join us for a conversation with Dawn Alston as she takes us through her first year as CBO at Spellman as the world changed under us all.

Now, more than ever, we need to have a conversation about race in America. But what does that conversation really sound like? What are the issues we should be discussing to effect real change? Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum is the author of Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together In The Cafeteria? and President Emeritus of Spellman College. As a psychologist and educator, she has spent a lifetime helping to make sense of the so-called third rail of American discourse. We talk about the difference between racism and prejudice, white privilege and identity, and the importance of not being color silent.
