Si l'industrialisation commence en Europe, elle se diffuse très vite dans le Nouveau Monde. Nous sommes à Chicago, en 1886, une ville en pleine expansion industrielle, notamment autour de ses abattoirs. C'est dans ce contexte que naissent les grandes luttes sociales qui donneront naissance à la journée internationale des travailleurs, le 1er mai. Des écrivains comme Upton Sinclair ou des auteurs comme Bertolt Brecht ont immortalisé cette époque, tandis qu'Henry Ford s'en inspire pour développer le travail à la chaîne. Une plongée dans l'Amérique industrielle, marquée par un autre "Black Friday" - bien loin des soldes d'aujourd'hui. Avec Martin Cennevitz, enseignant d'histoire à Tours en France qui a publié Haymarket, récit des origines du 1er mai (Editions LUX).

In this deep dive into the history of the meatpacking industry, I sit down with Professor Dominic Pacyga, Chicago historian and author of Slaughterhouse: Chicago's Union Stock Yard and the World It Made. We explore the rise and fall of the stockyards, the labor struggles, immigrant communities, and how Chicago became the epicenter of the meat industry. We also talk about my own reading list for researching the history of the beef business—covering everything from Teddy Blue Abbott to Upton Sinclair, and why understanding the past is key to figuring out where the industry is headed today.

In 1934, Upton Sinclair ran for governor of California. During the campaign, he wrote a book, in the past tense, talking about all he accomplished as governor. The problem? He got crushed in the election bid. His talk and hype outpaced the work he needed to do to actually win the race. Like Sinclair, many of us can get ahead of ourselves with talk—about what we have or hope to accomplish. In the process, our hype game outpaces our actual accomplishments. In this episode, we'll talk about practical ways to make war with ego, or pride, which starts with the words we use. Who do we blame when things go wrong? Who do we give credit to when things go right? How does seeing ourselves as a student help us tame the beast of overgrown pride? We'll discuss this and more in the episode.   Visit ForgedBeardCo.com today and use code HARDMEN for 15% off your first purchase!Book your free consultation with Boniface Business Solutions at bonifacebusiness.comVisit White Tree Solutions at wtsdata.com or send them an email at info@wtsdata.comTalk to Joe Garrisi about managing your wealth with Backwards Planning Financial.Alpine Gold Exchange Website: alpinegoldogden.comSet Up a Meeting: https://calendly.com/alpinegold/alpine-gold-consultation10 Ways to Make Money with Your MAXX-D Trailer.Buy your beef or pork box today from Salt and Strings Butchery.

Sometimes you read a book that you heard about in high school, something that was taught as a sort of historical document that helped to explain why things are the way they are today. But sometimes it turns out that the book is actually about a whole lot of other stuff too! Including lots of (apparently) live debates about politics and food safety! It's a tough book to read right now, but it's an important time to remember where we've been.

How to Lose Weight and Belly Fat Fast. Intermittent fasting (or I.F.) is the most popular weight loss program today. How can you use it to drop a few pounds quickly and get the body of your dreams? Let's answer the most important question here: is it possible for the human body to endure long hours of fasting on a daily basis? TIMESTAMPS Who created intermittent fasting? 1:15 Misconceptions about intermittent fasting 2:24 How can you split your day or week into an eating period and a fasting period? 3:31 What can you achieve with intermittent fasting? 6:39 Other health benefits besides getting the perfect body 7:09 Who shouldn't try this eating pattern 7:43 How to make it more effective 8:10 Music: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/... SUMMARY -It was popularized by the American writer Upton Sinclair in the 1900s. Sinclair practiced juice cleansing and fasting at the same time. -Intermittent fasting is not a diet plan but an eating pattern. With I.F., you don't starve but still have to eat and drink, but it should be time-restricted. It's not dangerous for you because it doesn't leave you with no food at all for long periods of time. -You can try out one of the patterns: the 16:8 pattern, the 5:2 pattern, “Eat Stop Eat", Alternate day fasting, and The Warrior Diet. -Over the course of time, your body will eventually overcome the side effects. In the fasting period, your body will get the energy from burning fat. The longer you fast, the more fat is burned in the process. -It can prevent type 2 diabetes and promote insulin resistance. It is good for the heart. It may prevent cancer. It improves brain function. -Children and teens, people with diabetes, low blood pressure, underweight, pregnant, breastfeeding, or people trying to conceive should consult a doctor before trying it out. -You should also remember that you can't lose weight through intermittent fasting alone. It is also safe to exercise while fasting , but it takes time to adjust to it. Sacrifices must be made: saying goodbye to your favorite greasy foods or not eating from time to time.

And exclusive sneak peek of a brand new radio play starring Edie Falco, John Turturro and Tony Shalhoub. Inspired by Sinclair Lewis' dystopian novel, It Can't Happen Here, Richard Dresser's novel, and now 6-part radio play called It Happened Here 2024, offers a glimpse of what could happen after the 2024 election if fascism creeps into the USA. The story centers around the Weeks family as they brace for the election. Paul and Ruth's family work to defeat the so-called Great Leader. Paul's brother Garret and his family are on the other side. Family get-togethers are tense. When the Great Leader, with a giant boost from the Supreme Court, shockingly wins the quote, “most important election ever,” the family is thrown into chaos.It Happened Here 2024 describes a country that still has Netflix and free two-day delivery, where the only thing lost is freedom....Listen to the rest of the episodes wherever you get your podcasts!  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

Dealing with reality can be difficult enough, but when the nature of that reality is completely overturned - as it is in a case like the climate crisis - we're left with a feeling of intense unease. What does this mean for us? How can we absorb a revelation that threatens to undermine everything we believe about ourselves and our place in the universe? In this episode, Jacke talks to Allen MacDuffie about his new book Climate of Denial: Darwin, Climate Change, and the Literature of the Long Nineteenth Century, which examines how writers like George Eliot and H.G. Wells dealt with a post-Darwinian world, and asks whether those examples might help readers cope with today's cataclysmic problems. PLUS novelist Adelle Waldman (Help Wanted) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read. Enjoy this episode?

This episode is part of the ChicagoHamburg30 podcast series, celebrating the 30-year anniversary of the Chicago-Hamburg Sister-City Partnership. No industry shaped Chicago more decisively than the meatpacking industry, and no book exposed the rapacious, exploitative and vicious character of the meatpacking industry more than Upton Sinclair's The Jungle (1906). In this episode, we explore the origins and explosive growth of the meatpacking industry, the brutal working conditions on the bloody killing floors, the emergence of literature about Chicago in the early 1900s, the importance of Lithuanians in Chicago history, the life of Upton Sinclair, his urban realist and naturalist writing style, and his political ideas as seen in The Jungle. Our expert guests are historian Dr. Dominic Pacyga, co-founder of Chicago's Packingtown Museum, and novelist Dr. Douglas Cowie, creator of the Literature of Chicago Course at Royal Holloway, University of London. Visit the Packingtown Museum, voted the best small museum in Chicago. More information is available here: https://www.packingtownmuseum.org/

Can novelists make a difference in the world? Of course we know they can - we've seen plenty of examples. But how does it happen? And what are the challenges might a twenty-first century novelist hoping to bring about social change face? In this episode, Jacke talks about the example of Upton Sinclair, whose famous novel The Jungle shone a spotlight on the immigrants working at Chicago's meatpacking plants and led to key social reforms. Then Jacke talks to Adelle Waldman (The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P.), whose new novel Help Wanted is set in the world of workers at a big box store. And finally, Professor Edward Chamberlin (Storylines: How Words Shape Our World) returns to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Dave Ackley's paper Beyond Efficiency is three pages long. With just these three pages, he mounts a compelling argument against the conventional way we engineer software. Instead of inflexibly insisting upon correctness, maybe allow a lil slop? Instead of chasing peak performance with cache and clever tricks, maybe measure many times before you cut. So in this episode, we're putting every CEO in the guillotine… (oh, that stands for "correctness and efficiency only", don't put us on a list)… and considering when, where, and how to do the robust thing. Links $ patreon.com/futureofcoding — The most recent bonus episode is a discussion with Stefan Lesser about new "laws of physics" we can invent inside the computer. Don't destroy the earth, then make sure your thing can't be destroyed, then don't destroy your data, and finally, do your damn job, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. A Software Epiphany, and the accompanying HN discussion — giga viral, so sick PartyKit? Nice! What started as a simple todo list turned into an ocean of tech boy milk and, ultimately, the AI apocalypse. Jepsen is a rough, rugged, deeply thoughtful and fantastically cool approach to distributed systems testing, by Kyle Kingsbury. Also, we didn't talk about it, but his reversing / hexing / typing / rewriting / unifying technical interview series is essential reading. Ivan's examples of robustness vs efficiency were RAID, the CAP theorem, Automerge, the engineering of FoundationDB, and Byzantine fault tolerance— all of which stake out interesting territory in the efficiency/robustness tradeoff spectrum, all of which are about distributed systems. Can programming be liberated from the von Neumann style?, a paper by John Backus. We Don't Really Know How to Compute!, a talk by Gerald Sussman. The Robust-First Computing Creed is rock solid. The Wikipedia article on von Neumann architecture did not come through with the goods. Ivan works with Alex Warth now, and thus may fairly speak in half-truths like "I've been working with constraints recently…" The Demon Hoard Sort Bogosort is never coming to Dreamberd The Witness was made by Jonathan Blow, who has Aphantasia, but he also made a game called Braid, and Braid is good.

“These are all the types of people I was exposed to the most as a child in the sex work woke the most as customers and as adult service providers.” -Antonio Myers. “There are a number of other terms used less frequently, or which translate to English from common use in other languages.[8] These categories include: Red collar – Government workers of all types;[9] (derived from compensation received from red ink budget. In China, it also refers to Communist Party officials in private companies.[10] New collar – Develops technical and soft skills through nontraditional education paths. No collar – Artists and "free spirits" who tend to privilege passion and personal growth over financial gain. This term was popularized on the reality game show Survivor: Worlds Apart, which used No Collar (in addition to White and Blue Collar) as the tribal divisions; also, people who work, but not for payment.[9] Orange collar – Prison laborers, named for the orange jumpsuits commonly worn by inmates.[9] (12] Green collar – Usually referring to military personnel, but can also refer to workers in a wide range of professions relating to the environment and renewable energy. Brown collar - Military personnel Scarlet collar – Workers in the sex industry[9] Black collar – Manual laborers in industries in which workers generally become very dirty, such as mining or oil-drilling;[9][13] has also been used to describe workers in illegal professions. Open collar – Refers to a worker who works from home, via Internet likely freelancers. Grey collar – Workforce that is not classified in blue collar nor white collar. It is occasionally used to describe elderly individuals working beyond the age of retirement, as well as those occupations incorporating elements of both blue- and white-collar. Gold collar – Refers to young, low-wage workers who invest in conspicuous luxury. Alternatively refers to highly-skilled professionals in high-demand fields such as doctors, lawyers, engineers, pilots, and scientists.[14]” “A pink-collar worker is also a member of the working class who performs in the service industry. They work in positions such as waiters, retail clerks, salespersons, certain unlicensed assistive personnel, and many other positions involving relations with people. The term was coined in the late 1970s as a phrase to describe jobs that were typically held by women; now the meaning has changed to encompass all service jobs.[5][6][7]” “A blue-collar worker is a member of the working class who performs manual labor and either earns an hourly wage or is paid piece rate for the amount of work done. This term was first used in 1924.[4]” “The term "white-collar worker" was coined in the 1930s by Upton Sinclair, an American writer who referenced the word in connection to clerical, administrative and managerial functions during the 1930s.[2] A white-collar worker is a salaried professional,[3] typically referring to general office workers and management.” -Wikipedia. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

The Pure Foods Movement was a grass roots effort that called attention to the presence of unhealthy additives in processed food. Prior to 1906, there was no governmental oversight of processed foods and pharmaceutical drugs. Purity, quality, and sanitation were not regulated. Upton Sinclair's 1906 novel “The Jungle” exposed the unsanitary conditions of Chicago slaughterhouses. The book increased people's awareness of the unhealthy condition of some foods.

Lʹindustrialisation cʹest une histoire de machines, de conception scientifique du travail plus ou moins heureux, de transformation des paysages et de la consommation, une histoire qui a transformé en profondeur les sociétés occidentales au XIXe siècle. Mais lʹindustrialisation cʹest aussi une histoire de conflits redoutables entre le monde ouvrier et le patronat dans un dialogue explosif sur les droits des travailleurs, partis dʹà peu près rien. La journée internationale du Travail, le 1er mai incarne cet affrontement. Cʹest un repère historique mondiale, que la journée soit fériée ou non. En Suisse ça dépend des cantons. Ce rendez-vous mémoriel et politique, nous le devons à un évènement qui sʹest passé, contre toute attente, loin de lʹEurope des révolutions rouges, aux Etats Unis. Si lʹindustrialisation commence en Europe, elle se diffuse très vite dans le Nouveau Monde. Nous sommes à Chicago en 1886, un bassin industriel gigantesque avec son complexe dʹabattoirs autour du lac. Une industrie de la viande qui a laissé son empreinte puisque cʹest le sujet du best-seller La jungle dʹUpton Sinclair, de la pièce Sainte Jeanne des Abattoirs de Bertolt Brecht, cʹest encore une fameuse visite de Tintin dans ses aventures en Amérique ou le bœuf de lʹéquipe de basket à la célébrité mondiale les Chicago Bulls. Martin Cennevitz enseigne lʹhistoire à Tours en France, il vient de publier Haymarket, récit des origines du 1er mai aux éditions LUX. https://luxediteur.com/catalogue/categorie/auteurs/martin-cennevitz/

Lord of Enjoyment calls in with some additional context on the Tyson chicken nugget recall. A letter prompts a conversation about the controversy surrounding the Balfour Declaration. Multiple anonymous sources prove the problem of contamination is much, much bigger than just chicken nuggets -- and it turns out Upton Sinclair's groundbreaking novel The Jungle still matters in the modern day.

Seneca thought he knew Nero. He was confident in his ability to teach or contain or even control him. Other Stoics knew better. Thrasea (whose story we tell in Lives of the Stoics) opposed him from the start. Agrippinus (another fascinating Stoic in Lives) wouldn't even attend Nero's parties, because it was clear to him that the man was a tyrant.Surely these men (and women) communicated their concerns to Seneca. Surely people raised questions. But Seneca thought he knew better. He was also paid so handsomely by Nero, was so powerful as a result of his position as Nero's teacher and advisor, that it became hard for him to see what was there. It was a classic case of that problem outlined by Upton Sinclair many centuries later: It's very hard to get someone to see something that their salary (or status or identity) depends on them not seeing. ✉️ Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail

We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 11 episode 20 "Beef." Our guest is Roberta Blevins from the "Life After MLM" podcast. The story takes cues from the work of muckraker Upton Sinclair.This podcast was recorded in front of a live audience in Dallas, TX.

El día de hoy compartimos nuestro micrófono con el Dr. Justin Kastner, un profesor en el Departamento de Medicina Diagnóstica/Patobiología en el Colegio de Medicina Veterinaria de la Universidad Estatal de Kansas. Profundizaremos en los inicios de la industria cárnica en Estados Unidos, el comercio de exportación de ganado y carne de Estados Unidos con Europa, centrándonos específicamente en el área de Chicago, donde comenzó la historia ficticia de Jurgis Rudkus. Resumiremos el libro "La Jungla", escrito por Upton Sinclair durante 1904-1905, y discutiremos las repercusiones de su publicación y cómo influyó en la dirección de la regulación de desinfección e inocuidad en la industria de la carne en los Estados Unidos. ¡Disfruta del episodio!

Today, we are sharing our microphone with Dr. Justin Kastner, a professor in the Department of Diagnostic Medicine/Pathobiology in the College of Veterinary Medicine at Kansas State University. We will delve into the beginnings of the meatpacking industry in the US, the US's livestock and meat export trade with Europe's, while focusing specifically on the Chicago area—where the fictional story of Jurgis Rudkus began. We will summarize the book “The Jungle,” authored by Upton Sinclair during 1904-1905, and discuss the repercussions of its publication and how it influenced the direction of sanitation and food safety regulation within the meat industry in the US. Enjoy the episode!

In this installment of The Climate Pod's Climate Book Club (a new thing, maybe?), we revisit Upton Sinclair's 1927 classic Oil! with Professor Michael Tondre, who wrote the introduction to the recently released new edition of Sinclair's novel.  Michael Tondre is an Associate Professor at Stony Brook University and an expert in Victorian studies. In this conversation, we look back at the corruption in the fossil fuel industry that Sinclair explored in the early 20th century and how it remains relevant today. We also discuss the novel through our current understanding of the climate crisis and what Sinclair's work can teach us about the our fight for a better future.  Read the new edition of Upton Sinclair's Oil!

The only thing Americans completely agree on is that America is more divided than ever. But author Michael Malice believes this will be what saves the country. “You can't have a dictatorship unless everyone's united,” he tells Glenn. It's part of a worldview that he calls “the white pill,” or the state of being red-pilled, but choosing hope over despair. This hope, Malice argues, is something the conservative movement needs way more of. And he explains it all in his latest book, “The White Pill: A Tale of Good and Evil,” which documents the rise and fall of the Soviet Union. On this episode, Glenn and Michael dive further into this need for hope using stories about Ayn Rand, Ronald Reagan, Lenin, Stalin, Gorbachev, and communism. And he explains why he's certain that America will once again see victory despite impossible odds. Plus, Michael has a few things to say about his undying hatred for Upton Sinclair, his undying hatred for the corporate press, and his undying hatred for people enslaved by undying hatred.   SPONSORS: Pre-born has rescued over 200,000 babies from abortion, and every day, its clinics save 150 babies' lives.

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. Then, they're joined by author and documentary filmmaker Greg Mitchell to discuss his newest work "The First Attack Ads: Hollywood vs. Upton Sinclair," out on PBS and streaming now! Sam and Emma first run through updates on Biden's Cannabis pardons, setting weed on the road to decriminalization, the escalating nuclear tensions in Ukraine, and more, before diving deeper into the Right funneling out their drug fearmongering on CNN to paint Biden's executive action as radical (despite mass support in public opinion). Then Digby joins as they parse through Biden's recent comments on nearing “nuclear armageddon” with Putin's continued aggression in Ukraine centering more and more on the threat of nuclear action, discussing the various channels of diplomacy between Biden and Putin, before exploring the greater role the United States has begun to play in this conflict, capitalizing on this opportunity to engage in a proxy war where our opponent is already severely weakened and likely to lose, and what a practically anti-war foreign policy would look like. They then reflect on the classic GOP fear-mongering tactics in the leadup to midterms, from the four-year buildup of ACA fear-mongering from 2010-14 to the 2018 “Caravan” that had Minnesotans worried, looking at the recent impact of Fox's “Fentanyl in the Halloween Candy” as a return to a small-scale classic. Then, Greg Mitchell joins as he dives into the story of Upton Sinclair, a writer and early muckraker who published an exposé on Chicago's Stock Yards, before using the success of FDR to jumpstart a mass socialist movement in California heading into the 1934 governor election, where he appeared likely to emerge on top. However, Mitchell then dives into the bipartisan and Hollywood-backed coalition that came together against him, essentially becoming the first example of a modern negative campaign, featuring cinematic attack ads, outside political parties, the use of political consultants, national fundraising, and the outsourcing of advertising to Madison Ave and Hollywood Boulevard. Mitchell, Sam, and Emma walk through the major electoral archetypes that came out of this movement against Sinclair, where we still see them today, and how the backlash to this campaign lead to the liberalization of Hollywood. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive deeper into the nuances around being anti-war and pro-Ukrainians, why the Hitler comparison is nonsense, and why Putin's nuclear capabilities have to be taken seriously. They also explore the GOP's withdrawal from Herschel Walker, with Georgia's Lt. Gov coming out against his credentials, tackle the impact of the current economic moment and the role of recession discourse, and watch Mark Kelly call out Blake Masters' resting rich face. Greg Gutfeld talks about the attractiveness of college students, Matt Walsh cares more about consent in cancel culture than in sex-with-minors, and the crew touches on Dr. Oz the puppy-killer, plus, your IMs!

Vox's Jamil Smith talks with journalist and author Eyal Press about "dirty work" — the jobs Americans do that, as Press explains, can lead workers to perform morally compromising activities unwittingly. They discuss examples of this kind of work (drone pilots, meat packers, prison aides), talk about its relation to the term "essential workers" that gained prominence during the pandemic, and explain how certain jobs highlight the disparities of class, race, and gender in American society.
