What gets centred and what gets framed as marginal? Who decides? And what are the consequences? UN expert, feminist scholar and social historian Rhoda Reddock – Professor Emerita at The University of the West Indies – joins us from Trinidad and Tobago to discuss the theme of margins, reflecting on the importance of radical Caribbean thought, the contested meaning of the “global south” and the evolution and significance of Caribbean feminism from the 70s to today.As a member of the UN's Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), Rhoda shares her reflections of moving between Switzerland and Trinidad and Tobago for her work. She also gives advice to scholars striving to make an impact – and to those questioning the necessity of moving to the “global north”. Why, Rhoda asks, does scholarship from the “global south” too often get perceived as regionally specific, while the “north” remains regarded as the centre of sociological thought? And how, Rosie and Alexis ask, has the Caribbean typically been regarded – or indeed, dismissed – by the discipline?Plus: Rhoda also shines a spotlight on Trinidadian-American scholar Oliver C. Cox, author of “Caste, Class and Race”, whose work was a precursor to Wallerstein's “World Systems Theory” and also to women's studies today. A fascinating discussion, also featuring celebration of thinkers including CLR James and Walter Rodney, author of “How Europe Underdeveloped Africa”.Guest: Rhoda ReddockHosts: Rosie Hancock, Alexis Hieu TruongExecutive Producer: Alice BlochSound Engineer: David CracklesMusic: Joe GardnerArtwork: Erin AnikerFind more about Uncommon SenseEpisode ResourcesBy Rhoda ReddockRadical Caribbean Social ThoughtWomen and Slavery in the Caribbean“Conceptualizing ‘Difference' in Caribbean Feminist Theory” in New Caribbean ThoughtRhoda's online profileFrom the Sociological Review FoundationEuropeans, with Manuela  Boatcă – Uncommon Sense podcast episodeGlobal Sociology – online magazine essay collectionDecolonising Methodologies, 20 Years On: The Sociological Review Annual Lecture – Linda Tuhiwai SmithFurther resourcesThe UN's Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW)“North-South: A Programme for Survival” – Willy Brandt“Southern Theory: The global dynamics of knowledge in social science” – Raewyn Connell“How Europe Underdeveloped Africa” – Walter Rodney“Caste, Class and Race: A Study in Social Dynamics” – Oliver C.

Bio: My name is Michael Alexander but go by Michael Davincii. I'm from Pennsylvania but I've lived in New York since 2014 on and off. I'm Trinidadian American 29, and I'm a Gay Podcaster. I went to college at Berkeley where I studied International Business. Once I left college I ended up landing a job working for a interior design company called Bo-Concept literally scraping pennies I got into reselling exclusive sneakers such as Yeezy',s, exclusive Jordan's and rare collaborative footwear. Hanging out in soho and hanging around Upper echelon creatives where I found that I had a love for creativity. I ended up being a stylist assistant for Sincere with pulling for artist such as Meek Mill, Rich the Kid, and Jay Critch. In my free time I would listen to podcasts such as Joe Buddens podcast, Call her Daddy podcast, and Sofia with a F podcast. I loved the problematic, anti conservativeness, debative conversations they would have. Before I was listening to podcasts I was really inspired by Anderson Cooper and Don Lenon from CNN. But it wasn't until the beginning of the Coronavirus Pandemic where I picked up a. Mic and decided I wanted to be heard. This is where I felt most sexually liberated and free due to the the lockdown I did a lot of soul searching but didn't know how to talk with it compromising any work that I wanted to do. After a bunch of failed attempts with trying to do the podcast I decided to go solo and call it the D. A.M.N. Podcast aka the Don't Ask Me Nothin Podcast. In the podcast I talk about gay liberation, dating while black, dating outside your race, std and sti prevention, sex positively, being an upscale escort, endless party life with sex drugs and alcohol and things that had happened to me while living in New York City. I made a polecats to bring awareness as well as fill in the gap between heterosexuals and homosexuals.

By the time he was 10 years old Wendel Patrick was a seasoned traveler. The Trinidadian-American came to the states after time in other Caribbean countries and even a stint in South America (fun fact: you can see the shores of Venezuela from his family's home country). No matter where he was, music was a constant in his life. His father was an audiophile and Wendel observed the care and patience his dad practiced when tending to his vinyl collection. As Wendel got older, he demonstrated an astonishing proficiency for music and pursued music as a profession. Listen as Wendel talks about his beginnings in music training, how the sound of a piano while attending Emory University brought him back to music, and why "it takes what it takes" when he creates his projects.

His work in the 1960s and 1970s earned him the reputation of "rock's first superstar drummer", for a style that melded jazz and African rhythms and pioneered both jazz fusion and world music.

Baker was an inductee of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Cream, of the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2008, and of the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in 2016.

The photo sequencing was automatically triggered when Luna 3's photocell detected the sunlit far side, which occurred when the craft was passing about 40,000 miles above the lunar surface. The radio-controlled Luna 3 was part of the Soviet Union's highly successful lunar program, which completed 20 missions to the moon between January 1959 and October 1970. - https://www.wired.com/2011/10/1007luna-3-photos-dark-side-moon/Remembrances2 Oct 2019 - John Kirby, American attorney. He was most notable for his successful defense for Nintendo against Universal City Studios over the copyrightability of the character of Donkey Kong in 1984, from which Nintendo subsequently named the character Kirby to honour him. Kirby was considered to have "saved Nintendo" during its early growth into video games into the American market. In thanks for aiding them, Nintendo gave Kirby a $30,000 sailboat christened the Donkey Kong along with "exclusive worldwide rights to use the name for sailboats." He died from myelodysplastic syndrome at the age of 79. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Kirby_(attorney)7 Oct 1849 - Edgar Allan Poe, American writer, editor, and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and of American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. He is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career. Poe and his works influenced literature around the world, as well as specialized fields such as cosmology and cryptography. He and his work appear throughout popular culture in literature, music, films, and television. Several of his homes are dedicated museums today. The Mystery Writers of America present an annual award known as the Edgar Award for distinguished work in the mystery genre. He died at the age of 40 in Baltimore, Maryland - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Allan_Poe7 Oct 1939 - Harvey Cushing, American neurosurgeon,pathologist, writer and draftsman. A pioneer of brain surgery, he was the first exclusive neurosurgeon and the first person to describe Cushing's disease. He wrote a biography of William Osler in three volumes. In the beginning of the 20th century, Dr. Cushing developed many of the basic surgical techniques for operating on the brain. This established him as one of the foremost leaders and experts in the field. Under his influence neurosurgery became a new and autonomous surgical discipline. He was the world's leading teacher of neurosurgeons in the first decades of the 20th century. Arguably, Cushing's greatest contribution came with his introduction to North America of blood pressure measurement. Cushing's name is commonly associated with his most famous discovery, Cushing's disease. In 1912 he reported in a study an endocrinological syndrome caused by a malfunction of the pituitary gland which he termed "polyglandular syndrome." He published his findings in 1932 as "The Basophil Adenomas of the Pituitary Body and Their Clinical Manifestations: pituitary Basophilism". Cushing developed many surgical instruments that are in use today, most notably Cushing forceps and the Cushing ventricular cannula. Cushing was also a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, nominated at least 38 times. He died from a heart attack at the age of 70 in New Haven, Connecticut - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_CushingFamous Birthdays7 Oct 1943 - Austin Stoker, Trinidadian-American actor known for his role as Lt. Ethan Bishop, the police officer in charge of the besieged Precinct 9, Division 13, in John Carpenter's Howard Hawks-inspired, 1976 film, Assault on Precinct 13. This was one of the few heroic starring roles for a black actor in an action film of the 1970s outside of the blaxploitation genre. Prior to his role as Lt. Bishop, Stoker appeared in several blaxploitation films, often playing police detectives. Among these films were Abby, Combat Cops, and Sheba, Baby, in which he played Pam Grier's love interest. Some of Stoker's other notable acting roles were in Battle for the Planet of the Apes, Horror High, Airport 1975, Victory at Entebbe, and the 1977 television mini-seriesRoots. Stoker is known to Mystery Science Theater 3000 fans for his role as Dr. Ken Melrose in the 1982 B-movie,Time Walker, in which he appeared with Darwin Joston, his co-star from Assault on Precinct 13. He was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_Stoker7 Oct 1947 - Lightning Bear, Native American stuntman, stunt coordinator and special effects artist. He performed stunts on Star Trek: The Original Series, as well as Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. He did not receive on-screen credit for his work. Lightning Bear did stunt work on several other television programs, including The Green Hornet, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Bonanza. He is perhaps most noted for his stunt work on the three original Star Wars films (A New Hope, 1977; The Empire Strikes Back, 1980; Return of the Jedi, 1983). Among the many other feature film productions, he worked on were Planet of the Apes (1968), Tora! Tora! Tora!, Diamonds Are Forever, The Poseidon Adventure, Saturday Night Fever, Ragtime, Conan the Barbarian, and Rocky IV. Lightning Bear says he has been very lucky in his life as the industry is and always has been his first love. He likes the way it is always changing with new methods and technology, never having the same circumstance or conditions and the ability to travel and see different countries, cultures, people and locations. He was born in Houston, Texas- https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Lightning_Bear- https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0510019/7 Oct 1885 - Niels Henrik David Bohr, Danish physicist who made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922. Bohr was also a philosopher and a promoter of scientific research. Bohr developed the Bohr model of the atom, in which he proposed that energy levels of electrons are discrete and that the electrons revolve in stable orbits around the atomic nucleus but can jump from one energy level (or orbit) to another. Although the Bohr model has been supplanted by other models, its underlying principles remain valid. He conceived the principle of complementarity: that items could be separately analysed in terms of contradictory properties, like behaving as a wave or a stream of particles. The notion of complementarity dominated Bohr's thinking in both science and philosophy. He predicted the existence of a new zirconium-like element, which was named hafnium, after the Latin name for Copenhagen, where it was discovered. Later, the element bohrium was named after him. He was involved with the establishment of CERN and the Research Establishment Risø of the Danish Atomic Energy Commission and became the first chairman of the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics in 1957. He was born in Copenhagen - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_BohrEvents of Interest6 Oct 2009 - The Maze Runner a young adult dystopian science fiction novel written by American author James Dashner was first published. His publisher wanted him to write another book, but he decided he would try for a national book market instead. In November of that year he had an idea when going to be "about a bunch of teenagers living inside an unsolvable Maze full of hideous creatures, in the future, in a dark, dystopian world. It would be an experiment, to study their minds. Terrible things would be done to them – awful things; completely hopeless – until the victims turn everything on its head." Dashner wrote the book from December 2005 to March 2006. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Maze_Runner7 Oct 1856 - Cyrus Chambers Jr patents folding machine that folds book & newspapers- http://www.mainlinetoday.com/Main-Line-Today/July-2017/Inventor-Cyrus-Chambers-Transformed-the-17th-Century-Milling-Industry/– Patent (s) - https://patents.google.com/patent/US164904- https://patents.google.com/patent/US30910- https://patents.google.com/patent/US104621A/en- https://patents.google.com/patent/US234457 Oct 1988 – A Inupiaq hunter Roy Ahmaogak discovered three gray whales trapped in pack ice in the Beaufort Sea near Point Barrow in the U.S. state of Alaska; the situation becomes a multinational effort to free the whales. The whales' plight generated media attention that led to the collaboration of multiple governments and organizations to free them. The operation was called operation breakthrough. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration sent a team of whale biologists, and the United States Department of State requested the help of two icebreakers from the Soviet Union, the Vladimir Arseniev and the Admiral Makarov. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Breakthrough7 Oct 2011 – Sanctuary final season was aired, the fourth season was the 64th most watched cable show in 2011 - https://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/sanctuary-season-four-19069/IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS - http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssGeneral EnquiriesEmail - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.com

Host Alice Backer of www.kiskeacity.com and Michelle Materre, founder of Creatively Speaking Film Series and host of Creativey Speaking on the Air  welcome Bruce Paddington, maker of the documentary Forward Ever.  The film investigates the Grenadian revolution of 1979 which culminated in the killing of Maurice Bishop and several of his colleagues in 1983. (Bruce is with us for the first half hour.) We are then joined by Trinidadian-American trade unionist Roger Toussaint and cultural activist Martin Felix, who came of age in Grenada during the revolution, to explore aspects of this oft neglected chapter of Caribbean history. How was this movement for self-determination launched in the pre-social media era? Why did Reagan take exception to the building of an international airport in Grenada? Did US involvement start at the post-killing invasion or was the Grenadian movement for self-determination infiltrated and destabilized? Originally aired on Creatively Speaking On the Air June 18, 2014. Forward Ever will be screening FREE Friday June 20 at Medgar Evers College in Brooklyn at 6PM and again at 4PM Saturday June 21 at Maisles Theater in Harlem.
