Trots att själva landstigningen på Normandies stränder var över, var inte operation Overlord avslutat. Vägen till Paris och befrielsen av Frankrike var fortfarande kantad av en mycket kapabel tysk motståndare beordrad att slåss tills inget fanns kvar.Det brohuvud som landstigningen hade inneburit var fortfarande känsligt för riktade motoffensiver, och inte heller hade striderna i vare sig Caen eller Saint-Lô varit framgångsrika.I denna nymixade repris av Militärhistoriepodden pratar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om fortsättningen på Operation Overlord och befrielsen av Frankrike.Efter landstigningen stod Montgomerys anfall mot Caen och stampade utan resultat och det skulle ta en månad innan staden föll. I slutändan var det de allierades luftherravälde som vann dagen, till kostnad av tusentals civila liv och en stad i ruiner. Samma sak gällde staden Saint-Lô som låg straxt västerut. Först i mitten av juli säkrades Saint-Lô. Caen och Saint-Lô var strategiskt viktiga städer för de allierade. Utan dem under kontroll, skulle de allierades brohuvud aldrig vara säkert.När dessa positioner var tagna i slutet av juli och början av augusti, övergick de allierade till att försöka ringa in det kvarvarande tyska motståndet runt Falaise. Denna offensiv ledde till den i historieskrivningen mycket omtalade Falaise-fickan, i vilken runt 50 000 tyska soldater i armégrupp väst skulle bli infångade. Framgångsrikt kan tyckas, men i själva verket ledde oklara order och motsättningar inom den allierade befälskåren till att den största andelen av den tyska armén faktiskt undkom med stor del av sin utrustning i behåll. De som blev kvar i fickan har Hitler att tacka, som trots dåliga utsikter och utan tillgång till bränsle, beordrade sina generaler på marken att gå till motanfall djupare in i den ficka som de allierade hade skapat runt den tyska armén.När armégrupp väst väl var utslagen och de centrala knutpunkterna var under kontroll i norra Frankrike, inleddes nästa del i landstigningen. Frågan var dock vilken riktning man skulle ta? Eisenhower tvekade länge om något krut skulle läggas på att befria Paris, eller om man istället skulle rikta den allierade offensiven direkt österut, gå mot floden Rhen, och låta den tyska garnisonen i Paris, ledd av Dietrich von Choltitz, svälta ut sig själv. Ingen önskade göra ett nytt Stalingrad av Paris, och de allierade var medvetna om att Hitler beordrat att Paris skulle läggas i ruiner om staden inte kunde hållas.Politiken kom dock ifatt Eisenhower, och efter påtryckningar från General De Gaulle, samt insikten att det kunde vara farligt att ha ett tyskt hot mot de allierades flanker under den fortsatta offensiven, fattades beslutet att Paris skulle befrias. Vid det här laget var dock en av General De Gaulles närmsta män, LeClerc och den 2:a Franska pansardivisionen redan på väg. Frågan var bara hur den tyska garnisonen och von Choltitz skulle reagera, och vilken roll skulle den franska motståndsrörelsen spela i detta drama. Skulle Paris brinna?Bild: Pariasare kantar Paris paradgata Champs Elysees för att Fria frankrikes stridsvagnar och General Leclercs 2:a pansardivision passerar genom Triumfbågen, efter att Paris befriades den 26 augusti 1944. Bland folkmassan kan ses banderoller till stöd för Charles de Gaulle.

Ett av andra världskrigets mest framträdande karaktärsdrag var terrorbombning av civilbefolkningen med målet att knäcka motståndsviljan. London led svårt under Blitzen och Rotterdam bombades sönder närmast av misstag. Senare i kriget jämnades städer som Hamburg, Berlin, Dresden och Tokyo med marken av enorma bombskvadroner.Militära teoretiker förstod tidigt att flyget skulle förändra kriget i grunden. Naivt trodde man att enstaka bombanfall skulle kunna knäcka ett lands motståndsvilja – när verkligheten var precis tvärt om. Trots civilbefolkningens lidande under bombanfallen ökade bara motståndet.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Ulf Zander, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, aktuell med boken Bombkriget 1939-45. Detta är del ett av två avsnitt om bombkriget under andra världskriget.Under andra världskriget genomgick bombkriget en betydande utveckling. Bombplanen kunde bära allt fler och tyngre bomber, nya sikten tillät precisionsbombning, och nya strategier som bombmattor utvecklades.Det fälldes miljontals bomber över både militära och civila mål. Förlusterna var stora - både bland de nedskjutna bombplanen och de som blev offer för bombraiderna på marken. Trots att bombsiktena förbättrades väsentligt, övergavs målsättningen att precisionsbomba militära mål till förmån för "area bombing", vilket framför allt drabbade civila.Under andra världskriget blev städer som Rotterdam, London, Hamburg, Dresden, Tokyo samt Hiroshima och Nagasaki mål för massiva bombningar. Dessa bombningar ledde till omfattande förstörelse och stora förluster av människoliv.För de som utsattes för bombanfallen var konsekvenserna ofta katastrofala. Bortsett från de direkta fysiska skadorna och dödsfallen ledde bombningarna till omfattande förstörelse av hem, skolor, sjukhus och annan infrastruktur. Många överlevande led av psykologiskt trauma långt efter krigets slut.Men även att tjänstgöra ombord på ett bombplan var ett farligt och psykiskt krävande arbete. Förlusterna var stora och många besättningsmän upplevde psykiska trauman som följd av sina erfarenheter.Bombningarnas effekt på krigets utgång är ett ämne för debatt bland historiker. Vissa menar att de bidrog till att försvaga Tysklands kampvilja och kapacitet att fortsätta kriget, medan andra hävdar att deras effekt var begränsad jämfört med andra faktorer.Bild: Amerikanska B-17-plan bombar Focke-Wulfs flygplansfabrik i Malbork den 9 oktober 1943.

Chapter 1 What's The Chrysanthemum and the Sword Book by Ruth Benedict"The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" is a book written by American anthropologist Ruth Benedict. It was first published in 1946 and is considered one of the most influential works in the field of cultural anthropology. The book focuses on the study of Japanese culture and society, particularly during World War II.Benedict was commissioned by the United States Office of War Information to analyze and understand the Japanese people in order to aid the American war effort. She conducted her research based on a variety of sources, including interviews with Japanese immigrants in the United States and scholarly works on Japanese history and culture.In "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword," Benedict explores various aspects of Japanese culture, such as the importance of honor and shame, the concepts of loyalty and duty, the role of the family, and the effects of Confucianism on societal values. She also delves into the distinctions between Western and Japanese culture, highlighting areas where the two differ significantly.The title of the book is derived from a famous Japanese saying, "Under the chrysanthemum, the sword sleeps." This saying represents the contrasting elements of beauty and violence that are intertwined within Japanese culture."The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" is considered a seminal work in the study of Japanese culture and has influenced subsequent anthropological works on East Asia. It provides valuable insights into Japanese society and offers a nuanced understanding of the complexities of their cultural beliefs and practices.Chapter 2 Is The Chrysanthemum and the Sword Book A Good BookThe subjective nature of determining whether a book is "good" or not makes it difficult to provide a definitive answer. However, "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" by Ruth Benedict is widely regarded as an influential and important work in the field of anthropology. Published in 1946, the book offers insights into Japanese culture, society, and the impact of World War II. It has been used as a resource for cross-cultural studies and has sparked discussions about cultural relativism. If you have an interest in anthropology, Japanese culture, or the impacts of war on society, this book might be worth exploring.Chapter 3 The Chrysanthemum and the Sword Book by Ruth Benedict Summary"The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" is a book written by Ruth Benedict, an American anthropologist, in 1946. The book provides a detailed analysis of Japanese culture, particularly focusing on the years leading up to and during World War II.Benedict explores various aspects of Japanese society, such as education, family structure, social hierarchy, and the influence of Confucianism and Shintoism. She argues that the cultural norms and values of the Japanese people at the time were deeply rooted in tradition and emphasized group harmony and social roles.The title of the book, "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword," comes from a Japanese legend that symbolizes the dichotomy between two aspects of Japanese culture: the delicate beauty and aestheticism represented by the chrysanthemum, and the samurai warrior culture represented by the sword.Throughout the book, Benedict delves into topics such as the role of women in Japanese society, the concept of "face" and social expectations, the importance of loyalty and honor, and the impact of the war on the Japanese people.Benedict also examines the influence of American occupation and how it contributed to significant cultural changes in Japan. She provides insights into the contrast between Japanese cultural values and Western ideals, highlighting the challenges and misunderstandings...
We follow Ivan's parents, the peripatetic idle rich leftist novelist/journalists Ira and Edita Morris, from their wartime career “writing” in Haiti on the eve of the coup that brought the progressive President Estimé to power, then making “democratic” anti-fascist propaganda for the American Office of War Information and the Voice of America while moving in Brecht's circle including the Eisler siblings, whose persecution by the House Un-American Activities Committee led the brothers to flee to Europe and the sister, Ruth Fischer, to turn anti-communist professor at Harvard.

Journalist Wallace Carroll had a career that spanned 45 years as a journalist. His first foreign posting, in 1929, was to London with the United Press newswire service. Throughout the 1930s, he covered the major events in Europe and witnessed the Spanish Civil War first-hand. Posted back to London, he dictated his early reports of the Blitz from his office rood top. Carroll had a knack for being in places at the right time. His talents and connections got him noticed, and he finished the war working for the US government with the Office of War Information. Here, he was tasked with counteracting German propaganda and conducting 'physiological warfare'. Joining me is Mary Llewellyn McNeil.

Event recorded live at IWP, DC, on February 21, 2023. About the Lecture In his State of the Union Address of 1941, President Roosevelt proclaimed “Four Freedoms.” Eighty years ago this month, the publication of four paintings by the Vermont artist Norman Rockwell inspired Americans. The Office of War Information launched a major information campaign directed at both domestic and foreign publics. The Four Freedoms became shorthand for the war goals of the Allies. Both FDR's Four Freedoms and the famous paintings by Norman Rockwell are, however, fading from public memory. Mr. Bishop will review the campaign's antecedents, the State of the Union address of 1941; the impact of Norman Rockwell's four paintings; elaboration of Four Freedom themes in sculpture, music, and film; OWI's messaging directed at domestic and foreign audiences, and the impact of the Four Freedoms in the postwar period. About the Speaker An Air Force Vietnam veteran who also served in Korea and on the Air Force Academy faculty, teaching history, Mr. Bishop joined the U.S. Information Agency as a Foreign Service Officer in 1979. During a 31-year career in USIA and State, he served in Hong Kong, Korea, Taiwan, Capitol Hill, Bangladesh, Nigeria, and twice in China. At the Pentagon, he was the Foreign Policy Advisor to the Commandant of the Marine Corps and then the USAF Chief of Staff before a final year at the American Embassy in Kabul. He is now a Krulak Center Distinguished Fellow at Marine Corps University in Quantico.

Trots att själva landstigningen på Normandies stränder var över, var inte operation Overlord avslutat. Vägen till Paris och befrielsen av Frankrike var fortfarande kantad av en mycket kapabel tysk motståndare beordrad att slåss tills inget fanns kvar.Det brohuvud som landstigningen hade inneburit var fortfarande känsligt för riktade motoffensiver, och inte heller hade striderna i vare sig Caen eller Saint-Lô varit framgångsrika.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden pratar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om fortsättningen på Operation Overlord och befrielsen av Frankrike.Efter landstigningen stod Montgomerys anfall mot Caen och stampade utan resultat och det skulle ta en månad innan staden föll. I slutändan var det de allierades luftherravälde som vann dagen, till kostnad av tusentals civila liv och en stad i ruiner. Samma sak gällde staden Saint-Lô som låg straxt västerut. Först i mitten av juli säkrades Saint-Lô. Caen och Saint-Lô var strategiskt viktiga städer för de allierade. Utan dem under kontroll, skulle de allierades brohuvud aldrig vara säkert.När dessa positioner var tagna i slutet av juli och början av augusti, övergick de allierade till att försöka ringa in det kvarvarande tyska motståndet runt Falaise. Denna offensiv ledde till den i historieskrivningen mycket omtalade Falaise-fickan, i vilken runt 50 000 tyska soldater i armégrupp väst skulle bli infångade. Framgångsrikt kan tyckas, men i själva verket ledde oklara order och motsättningar inom den allierade befälskåren till att den största andelen av den tyska armén faktiskt undkom med stor del av sin utrustning i behåll. De som blev kvar i fickan har Hitler att tacka, som trots dåliga utsikter och utan tillgång till bränsle, beordrade sina generaler på marken att gå till motanfall djupare in i den ficka som de allierade hade skapat runt den tyska armén.När armégrupp väst väl var utslagen och de centrala knutpunkterna var under kontroll i norra Frankrike, inleddes nästa del i landstigningen. Frågan var dock vilken riktning man skulle ta? Eisenhower tvekade länge om något krut skulle läggas på att befria Paris, eller om man istället skulle rikta den allierade offensiven direkt österut, gå mot floden Rhen, och låta den tyska garnisonen i Paris, ledd av Dietrich von Choltitz, svälta ut sig själv. Ingen önskade göra ett nytt Stalingrad av Paris, och de allierade var medvetna om att Hitler beordrat att Paris skulle läggas i ruiner om staden inte kunde hållas.Politiken kom dock ifatt Eisenhower, och efter påtryckningar från General De Gaulle, samt insikten att det kunde vara farligt att ha ett tyskt hot mot de allierades flanker under den fortsatta offensiven, fattades beslutet att Paris skulle befrias. Vid det här laget var dock en av General De Gaulles närmsta män, LeClerc och den 2:a Franska pansardivisionen redan på väg. Frågan var bara hur den tyska garnisonen och von Choltitz skulle reagera, och vilken roll skulle den franska motståndsrörelsen spela i detta drama. Skulle Paris brinna?Bild: Pariasare kantar Paris paradgata Champs Elysees för att Fria frankrikes stridsvagnar och General Leclercs 2:a pansardivision passerar genom Triumfbågen, efter att Paris befriades den 26 augusti 1944.

Your Home Front Reporter - May 11, 1943. Host Fletcher Wiley with tenor Frank Parker and soprano Eleanor Steber. Light opera, War News, and getting the most out of your Ration Points were the features of Your Home Front Reporter. The Owens-Illinois Glass Company came up with a way to inform housewives about ways they could help to win the War with Your Home Front Reporter. Created by the D'Arcy Advertising Agency with the cooperation of the Office of War Information, the show featured War news and music from tenor Frank Parker, Metropolitan Opera Soprano Eleanor Steber, and David Broekman and His Orchestra. Over the course of the program, production moved from New York to Hollywood and back to New York again. (More from OTRcat.com)... The program was hosted by Southern California radio personality Fletcher Wiley. Often compared to Arthur Godfrey or Paul Harvey, Wiley specialized in speaking directly to women, so was a natural for the job. After broadcasts began in May 1943, production moved to Hollywood in July. This was a homecoming for Wiley, and tenor Parker made the move as well. Ms. Steber and Broekman's outfit were replaced by Dianna Gayle, Phil Hanna, and Wilbur Hatch and his Orchestra. Reporter Wiley offered tips on scientific nutrition, general home economics, and creative menu tips to get the most out of a household's ration points. In the fall, production returned to New York without Fletcher Wiley.

Today we talk again about Wild Bill Donovan's COI and OSS, as well as BSC's Camp X training site. Then we discuss the infiltration of the WRUL and KGEI radio stations by BSC, which included almost total control of information by British agents; it was handed over to US intelligence. Then we talk about the OWI - Office of War Information, the agency in charge of non-black propaganda, the relationship between OSS and SIS, and a frank assessment of Allen Dulles as spy re Fritz Kolbe. I call out some historians, which is reckless; then we talk about US foreknowledge of the Pearl Harbor attack, of which there's additional evidence of it via the BSC. Finally, we talk about Gallup polling and it's relationship to spying and population control. It's good stuff, and this is all before Operation Mockingbird even gets started. Check it out.

Neil Lewis Jr. doesn't just study social questions—he studies them in the places where they matter. He's an assistant professor of communication at Cornell University, and he's interested in social inequities, how they work, and how we can address them. In addition to his own research, he also consults for organizations and contributes to FiveThirtyEight. He was named a Rising Star by the Association for Psychological Science in 2019 and won the SAGE Young Scholar award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology in 2020.In our conversation, Neil shares his research on health communication and education disparities, talks about what it takes to collaborate outside of academic institutions, and how he approaches science communication.Things we mention in this episode:In my introduction to this episode, I pull from a variety of sources to highlight the value of applied psychological research. These include the research by the Research Branch, Information and Education Division of the War Department, a history of social psychology (Kruglanski & Stroebe, 2011), Kurt Lewin's research on eating organ meats (Lewin, 1943), reflections on social psychology's “fun and games” (Ring, 1967), references to social psychology's “crisis of confidence” (Elms, 1975), and Katz's reflection on the value of basic and applied social research (Katz, 1951).Field study of health messages in a physician waiting room (Lewis et al., 2020) and the laboratory research it was based on (Albarracin et al., 2007)Neil brings up a controversial paper suggesting that social psychology isn't a science—instead, it's a study of history (Gergen, 1973)The opening of the episode features audio from the World War II film, Why We Fight: Prelude to War, produced by the U.S. Office of War Information (1942).Check out my new audio course on Knowable: "The Science of Persuasion."For a transcript of this episode, visit: http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/episode/taking-social-science-into-the-world-with-neil-lewis-jr/Learn more about Opinion Science at http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/ and follow @OpinionSciPod on Twitter.

Burma was a mountainous country nestled between British India and Japan occupied China. Prior to 1941, Burma was of little importance to countries such as Great Britain and the United States. The mountainous region of Burma discouraged any type of trade or travel. Only once did the campaign of the Japanese to control Southeast Asia began, did Great Britain and the United States realize the value of Burma. From the beginning, Great Britain and the United States agreed that Burma was strategic in defeating Japan. Interestingly enough, Great Britain and the United States differed in their motives for protecting Burma. First, Great Britain viewed Burma as a barrier between British India and Japan occupied China. The barrier between these two countries would secure the safety of the “Crown Jewel of the British Empire”. In contrast, the United States saw Burma as a lifeline for China, which was under occupation by Japan. The United States believed that if they were to hold Burma, the Chinese could overthrow Japan and take back their country. The continued support of the Chinese was an effort by Franklin D. Roosevelt to gain a potential ally in China. References Xu, Guangqiu. War Wings: The United States and Chinese Military Aviation 1929-1949. Greenwood Press (2001). American Office of War Information.

Intro: You and I have seen the unfortunate results of gossip, lies, and innuendos. Many good people have had their live impacted or ruined by the evil use of the tongue. Reputations are damaged, families can be destroyed, and the course of a life can be changed for good. You may have hear the saying, "Loose lips sink ships". Loose lips sink ships is an American English idiom meaning "beware of unguarded talk". The phrase originated on propaganda posters during World War II.[3] The phrase was created by the War Advertising Council[4] and used on posters by the United States Office of War Information.[3] This type of poster was part of a general campaign of American propaganda during World War II to advise servicemen and other citizens to avoid careless talk that might undermine the war effort. There were many similar such slogans, but "Loose lips sink ships" remained in the American idiom for the remainder of the century and into the next, usually as an admonition to avoid careless talk in general. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loose_lips_sink_ships#cite_note-pp-3 Words are powerful. They can be use to destroy or they can be used to build up. You and I need our tongues to say words. The tongue is one of the smallest members of the human body. It can be the most powerful. James warns us in this passage that no one can tame our tongues except by the power of God. 1. Teachers, Beware of an Untamed Tongue v. 1 1. Teach the full counsel of God 2. Be edifying 3. Be encouraging 4. Don't engage or encourage gossip 5. A teacher's life should match what he/she teaches 6. A teacher ought to be a life long learner 1. Illust: "The secret of a governable tongue is not self-control, but Christ-control." G.S. 2. Congregation, Beware of an Untamed Tongue v. 3-12 1. Power to give direction v. 3-4 1. Direct towards the holiness and grace of the gospel 2. Direct towards 1 Timothy 3:18 2. Power to destroy v. 5-8 1. Illust: "There is only one thing as difficult as unscrambling an egg, and that's unspreading a rumor." G.S. 1. Destroy a person's reputation 2. Destroy a family 3. Destroy a Bible study 4. Destroy the church 3. Only God can tame our tongues v. 9-12 1. Being informed by the Word 2. Being empowered by the Holy Spirit 3. Being motivated by the love of Jesus Christ 4. Only Christ can control our tongues Closing: Applications: gossip, bitterness. anger, revenge, jealously, etc. Gossip Rumor Innuendo Slander Intentional lies All motivated by power, pride, inferiority complex, spiritual and emotional immaturity, jealously, envy, your agenda being blocked...

Though he never enjoyed the publishing success and fame of such friends as Sherwood Anderson and Ernest Hemingway, Lewis Galantière made a considerable contribution to literature over the course of the twentieth century. In Galantière: The Lost Generation’s Forgotten Man (Overlook Press, 2018), Mark I. Lurie describes the life and career of a dedicated man of letters. The precocious son of Jewish immigrants from Russia, Galantière’s education was constrained by his family’s impoverished economic circumstances. Yet Galantière benefited from being at the right place at the right time, first in Chicago during the heyday of the “Chicago Renaissance,” then in Paris in the 1920s, where his work as a columnist and translator earned him a place among the expatriate American writers in the city. Returning to America just before the Great Depression, he began a literary partnership with John Houseman that helped start Houseman’s decades-long career in theater. The two reunited during the Second World War at the Office of War Information, for which Galantière organized radio broadcasts into occupied France. Galantière’s work in radio continued during the Cold War as a producer for Radio Free Europe, after which he returned to the literary to become president of American PEN and organize the first PEN International Congress ever held in the United States.

We are all affected by it...call it advertising, propaganda, programming, social engineering, psychological operations, or whatever other term could be applied. The act of a force outside of your mind trying to convince you to do something. In this installment we take a look at what happened to the enormous propaganda machine after WWII was over. Once the Office of War Information was disbanded in 1945, the Central Intelligence Agency took over the domestic operations and "assumed many of the information gathering, analyzing and disseminating responsibilities". So, what would the CIA use its new found domestic propaganda powers for? In the early 1950's, Frank Wisner (head of the Directorate of Plans for CIA), Allan W. Dulles (Director of Central Intelligence) and Cord Meyer (Office of Policy Coordination) started Operation Mockingbird. By 1953, Operation Mockingbird had "major influence over 25 newspapers and wire agencies". We also touch on the House Un-American Activities Committee and the CIA's Project MK Ultra program.

We are all affected by it...call it advertising, propaganda, programming, social engineering, psychological operations, or whatever other term could be applied. The act of a force outside of your mind trying to convince you to do something. In the forth episode of this series we take a look at the Golden Age of Propaganda, World War II. We do this by analyzing several audio clips from films played in motion picture theaters during the 1940's. The clips include: Education for Death (made by Walt Disney), The Batman - The Electrical Brain (an 8-part serial), Japanese Relocation (Office of War Information), Our Enemy - The Japanese (United States Navy Training Film), Remember Pearl Harbor - Buy War Bonds (again, the US Government), Wartime Nutrition (Office of War Information) and It's Your War Too (made by the War Activities Committee of the Motion Picture Industry and the US War Dept.).

Finding the adequate nutritional balance within our food is often of paramount importance. When looking at the history of the current food system serving Canadians, it becomes apparent that only for a short time have we been experimenting with such a modern approach to eating. Processed foods and industrial farming are seen as convenient innovations, but how has such a model affected the nutritional composition of our food? Two speakers addressed this concern at the 2007 Growing Up Organic Conference held in Toronto on February 17th. The conference was organized by the Canadian Organic Growers. This broadcast will examine how, since the innovations coming out of World War II, the nutritional content of the Canadian food supply has plummeted. Through the assistance of CKLN in Toronto and Heather Douglas, Deconstructing Dinner was on hand to record the conference. This broadcast features the final session of the conference where panelists were posed the question, "Is Organic Worth the Price?". Speakers Thomas Pawlick, Author, The End of Food: How the Food Industry is Destroying Our Food Supply - And What We Can Do About It (Kingston, Ontario) - Pawlick's lecture was titled "Our Children's Food, Our Children's Survival". A veteran newspaper and magazine journalist with more than 30 years experience in Canada and abroad, Thomas has taught at both Canadian and foreign universities and colleges. The End of Food exposes the cause of the food crisis--an industrial system of food production geared not toward producing nourishing food, but maximum profit for corporations. Thomas is currently on leave from his position as Associate Professor in the School of Journalism at the University of Regina. Following the book achieving best-seller status, the University cut his salary, cut his research funding, removed him from email lists, and removed all copies of his book from the shelves of the campus book store. Thomas Pawlick is currently restoring a small scale organic farm north of Kingston, Ontario with his son. Ellen Desjardins, Public Health Nutritionist - Region of Waterloo Public Health (Kitchener, ON) - Ellen's presentation is titled "Eat up! It's good for you! - what the scientific literature says about the health benefits of organics". Ellen has worked in various programs throughout the province and at the federal level for the past 20 years. Ellen has co-authored numerous articles in the area of food security. She has also chaired work-groups and prepared position papers for the Ontario Public Health Association on food systems, public health concerns about food biotechnology, and mercury in fish. In 2005, Ellen was a founding member of the new national organization Food Secure Canada. Audio Clip "Food for Fighters" - Produced in 1943 by the United States Office of War Information, this short provides a glimpse into the origins of our current food system. The film was designed to promote the innovations that provided soldiers overseas with nutritionally adequate food. The audio version featured on this broadcast is available in its visual format from the Prelinger Archive at www.archive.org.
Almost as soon as there were radio stations, there were college radio stations. In 1948, to popularize FM radio, the FCC introduced class D non commercial education licenses for low-watt college radio stations. By 1967, 326 FM radio signals in the United States operated as “educational radio,” 220 of which were owned and operated by colleges and universities. The type of programming that these stations offered varied widely, from lectures and sporting events, to various kinds of musical shows, but toward the late 1970s, a new genre of college rock appeared on the scene. Record labels took note as college DJs discovered up-and-coming new artists, although they sometimes stopped playing those artists once they made it big.Joining this week's episode is historian Dr. Katherine Rye Jewell, a Professor at Fitchburg State University and author of Live from the Underground: A History of College Radio.Our theme song is Frogs Legs Rag, composed by James Scott and performed by Kevin MacLeod, licensed under Creative Commons.
