In the early 1800's when America was debating what to do about those still enslaved and the many black Americans that were gaining their liberty, one solution was to return free people to the continent from which they were bought from: Africa. The American Colonization Society was an organization that embraced this idea and began the process of aiding blacks who wished to return to their place of origin. While some African Americans were sympathetic to the plan, most were not. Dr. Robin West comes Back by the Woodpile to help us understand what were the intentions of this movement and why ultimately it failed.  

Though with the 1896 case of Plessy verses Ferguson, American local and state governments forcing racial segregation was upheld as legal, individuals also chose to enforce the separation even if there were no laws. But all over the nation one can find instances where individuals and groups quietly associated together in spite of the times and in one place that happened on occasion was the recording studio. Author and jazz historian Stephen Provizer has painstakingly investigated the recording logs and records and made a comprehensive discography of recordings where blacks, whites and others made some wonderful truly American music together. His book is called As Long As They Can Blow and Mr. Provizer has come Back by the Woodpile to talk about his experience in putting the book together and gives what backstories he can about some of the specific recordings.

During the 1970s and 1980's there was a flourishing of musical blending and innovation in the nation of South Africa that infected the whole world. All of this occurred in spite of the violent oppression of the then Apartheid government. One man who not only lived through those times but was an active participant was Benjy Mudie, he working for various record labels including Warner and Tusk and signing some of the most legendary names to come out of the rainbow nation. Listen in as Mr. Mudie talks about his experiences with such artists as eVoid, Johnny Clegg, Malcolm McLaren, Paul Simon, Mango Groove and others in addition to giving us a bit of history lesson of those both wonderful and troubled times.

In the history of early recorded music, one label stands out as a kind of unlikely blessing.

  In 1846, a slave by the name of Dred Scott after several attempts to buy his own freedom from his master Eliza Sanford, sued. In one Missouri court Scott won his freedom but then in the appeals process pursued by Sanford, his liberty was taken away. Through a long process the case ended up before the US Supreme Court where a devastating decision delivered by Chief Justice Roger Taney in 1857 said that not only would Scott, his wife and children remain slaves, but in fact the rights of man as defined in the Declaration of Independence had never applied to those Americans of African descent. Dr. Dennis Boman comes Back By the Woodpile to explain the days leading up to the monumental case in addition to its nuances and aftermath. To hear on Stitcher, click here!

Originally published in 1961, Houdini's Fabulous Magic was written by Walter B. Gibson and Morris Young, both of which knew and worked with the said most famous magician of all time. The two authors were able to write the revolutionary book because they not only had had access to Houdini himself but his personal notes and the assistance of friends and family of the performer. The book fell out of print for many years but has finally been reprinted by Vine Leaves Press. Morris Young's son Charlie Young comes Back By The Woodpile to talk about the contents and history of the book and his own personal memories of growing in a setting where magic and wonder was appreciated and embraced.   To hear on Stitcher, click here!

A talk by Vanessa Able.

In early 1980, a city bus crashed into the Peruvian embassy in Havanna Cuba. Somehow this incident would lead to the mass exodus of over 100,000 Cubans mostly via small boats from the communist  Island to the democratic United States. But there were a lot a lot of anticedents that brought the peoples of the two nations to that point. Here to helps fill in some of those gaps is historian Victor Triay, author of Mariel Boatlift: A Cuban American Journey. To hear on Stitcher, click here! To hear on iTunes, click here!

Krugler who has written and taught extensively on those early 20 years of the 20th century.   To hear on Stitcher, click here! To hear on iTunes, click here! To hear on Spotify, click here!

Author, blogger and game designer Aaron A.

Today's episode is a bit of an experiment. The question: How easy would it be to record my ideas onto my iPhone? I have a friend, Jamie Bright, who records her private podcast episodes directly onto her iPhone. She's been encouraging me to start dictating my ideas as a potentially easier and faster way to capture them. I thought I'd have a go so I hit the red button and recorded a story. After I had finished recording I wondered how easy it would be to upload that into Descript so that I could create a transcript. It was super easy. As I was listening back to my recording I realised that although it was pretty bad quality the content was kinda ok. I've heard podcasts where the sound quality was worse than this. It then crossed my mind that maybe I should do a quick edit, add a beginning and an end though and some music, publish it simply and see what you think. So this is it. This is me deciding to get over myself and ‘put it out there' regardless of how perfect (or not) it is. I'm doing this for two reasons. Because I want to challenge myself to get over myself, do hard things and move forward regardless, and Because I want to encourage you to do the same. I want to encourage you to take your Next Tiny Step, beat The Resistence and move forward. I'd love to know your thoughts. To send me a message Click Here.

On July 11th of last year protests broke out all over Cuba over several issues, ranging from lack of food and medical access to the general state of oppression. For a moment the world's eyes were on the island and the prospect of a free Cuba seemed to be within grasp. But as humans tend to do, they quickly lose interest and turn their gazes to other matters and distractions. The Cuban dictatorship became more brazen in their oppression of the Cuban people, especially of those who embarrassed them on the world stage. To help us to put names and faces on just a few of those who as I write this are enduring prison, beatings and worse, is Vicky Collado. Vicky wears many hats but one of them she wears is while trying to get the true condition of Cubans out to the worlds ears.
