"As in people who might have been assigned female at birth, but now identify as male. That vote has created conflict with the administration and starting to see this on more campuses. I don't know if I bring an ABC's chiara alfonseca who's been reporting on this Kira. What is this plan that wellesley's students want to put in? And what is the thinking behind it? Yeah, so the ballot initiative from the college government was intended to show wellesley administrators what the students want, which is essentially to revise the college's admission policy and the use of gendered language in college communications. And so their argument is essentially that some students transition while at the college and identify as trans men. Some identify as non binary and go by. They them pronouns, some go by any pronouns. And so at this college you're interacting with a really gender diverse student body and they want the college's language to reflect that. Well, and the student vote, just because it was voted on, doesn't necessarily mean the school has to implement it. So you had a response from the administration kind of as this began brewing, what has the response been? Yeah, so the president of the college, Paula Johnson, essentially came out and said, there's no plans to revisit the admissions policy. However, the college is going through other structural changes that kind of impact the LGBTQ community on campus. So intend to offer gender and sexual orientation affirming therapy, expand all gender bathrooms on campus, among others. And so when the president of the college came out and said this, students immediately reacted. The wellesley college news editorial board responded, saying that they continue to support trans on binary and gender non conforming students and faculty and students also reacted hosting a sit in protest, so there was an immediate reaction from the student body. I guess I wonder what the conversations have been like, 'cause it made me go, huh. As a student body, I get that might want to be super progressive, super accepting. And yet, when you've got a place that was founded as like, this is a place for women for whom classes were not offered at the time by men schools. By nature, that is sort of an exclusionary thing, right? Like this is for a particular group of people. So I guess I'm kind of wondering, what is that distinction mean to these students? Yeah, I think this prompts a really interesting conversation about gender. Another women's college that we reach out to mount holyoke college. Has told us that they have long welcomed gender diverse people, including trans men, and non binary people. They say that it's part of their mission to provide education for people who have been marginalized based on gender, gender expression, and gender identity. And that's why it was so important to include trans men and non binary people. And so the conversations around this are gender diverse people are impacted by misogyny, the patriarchy, gender based discrimination, which really does affect us all. But especially women and gender diverse people. And so that's why a lot of students feel that this should be part of their own campus. That's interesting here, because then it raises the question almost of what is a women's college for? Is it because there is a specific outlook and a specific advantage that comes from having women around you that this is a place for women and there's a specific point of view there or is it about just not being a man, not being a cisgender man is kind of the outlook here. This is what helps us create a diversity of thoughts and opinions. And this is what makes it a safe space. Does it raise questions about what is the true purpose of a women's college in 2023? Right. And I think that's part of the question and the dialog that's going on. And not even just at this specific campus, but all over the country when we talk about gender when we talk about reproductive rights, even that and how to trans man fit into that. Here are often Sega, really interesting. Thank you. ABC's Brad milky. Your stock charts dot com money update on news radio 1000 FM 97 7.

After I figured out the top rated TVs in our price range, I went shopping for deals. And who's the best? It wasn't the Internet, and it wasn't the warehouse club. But it was video only. They had better deals on the Samsung LG and the Sony TVs that got the highest scores. Better than online and at the club. I know, video only beat them all. And now we can afford an even better model for the same price. Might research really paid off. If we buy a video only. Exactly. Otherwise

"Since the beginning of time, man has yearned to destroy the sun. I will do the next best thing. Block it out. Kevin, why don't we begin with you telling me your full name, you're surprising full name and what you do? My name is Kevin surprise. I'm a lecturer in environmental studies at mount holyoke college. I've been studying solar geoengineering for about ten years now looking at some of the many risks and the way that this technology has been normalized and move forward in climate policy and the actors that have been involved in that process. Kevin, we just heard Betsy kolbert of The New Yorker tell us that scientists are very worried about the risks of solar geoengineering. What are the risks? There are many risks. When you introduce a novel climate that would result from injecting sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere, there are going to be effects on climate and weather globally and regionally. You could potentially alter precipitation patterns, which could shut down the monsoon in South Asia on a regular basis. It could create large droughts and sub Saharan Africa. It could create a dye backs in the tropical Amazon region. But we won't really know what is going to unfold until it's fully deployed and then we're in an experiment earth situation, which is deeply concerning. How do you think we should be doing real world research? Or do you think maybe we shouldn't be? At the moment, I am not in favor of taking any of this research outdoors and experimenting in the real real climate. Why not? There are few known environmental regulations to govern the kinds of experiments that would take place in the stratosphere. Those could feasibly be dealt with, but there's also the precedent setting nature of actually taking this stuff and moving it down the line from just the models into the real world, which eventually we're going to have to, if we want to learn anything about this, continually ramp up the experiments into larger and larger areas and more and more material being released. And there's questions as to how far that should go and who would be responsible for deciding how far that should go for governing it for managing it. What happens if there are trans boundary effects from experimentation, this is something I've looked at with in terms of the U.S. government in the U.S. Military in that the United States is far and away the leader on solar geoengineering research, whether it's in terms of housing a number of different research programs or moving legislation forward to get federal research going on these technologies to the U.S. Military and intelligence community, having written reports that include scenarios for solar geoengineering and the potential conflicts that might result. So there's a number of really powerful actors that have an interest in the way that these technologies develop and in ensuring that they are developing according to the needs and interests of powerful states. Where is the push to experiment with this coming from? Who's behind it? I mentioned the United States. There was in 2021 a major report from the U.S. national academies that called for a federally funded 5 year research program that would be funded up to the tune of a hundred or $200 million over the 5 year program, which would be the largest investment in these technologies that we've seen yet. Australia has a number of different programs for other types of solar geoengineering interventions. There's been a smattering of interest in investment from various governments in the European Union and India and China. And then even beyond that, it's largely coming from academic research programs who have been moving forward through funding from philanthropic organizations from Bill Gates to a number of other philanthropies, tied closely to the Silicon Valley technology world. But at the moment, the majority of the research and interest is coming from largely industrialized countries in the global north. And there is an attempt to expand research beyond that, but it's limited at this point. And even when those programs in the global south are taken up, it's usually at the behest of organizations that are kind of lobbying for this technology around the world. So the people that I see is not part of the conversation, are civil society organizations primarily from the global south. Social movements, grassroots, lead, climate, justice, organizations, when they have taken a position on solar geoengineering, which is few and far between. It has normally been in opposition. Deliberate climate change as a solution to climate change is not just insane. But it is at Einstein said repeating the mindset that got you into the crisis in the first place. To be completely fair to folks that I normally tend to disagree with over this issue, most of them are motivated by a sincere desire to deal with climate change and do so because it is going to largely affect the global poor and those who are already vulnerable and are being made more vulnerable by climate change. So there is a desire. But I think it is rooted in Silicon Valley way of thinking about problems, right? Which is that there's this wicked problem out there and it requires some sort of smart technological solution to as it's been phrased to hack the planet. Rather than going through the really difficult hard work of making the kind of energy and economic and political transformations that are necessary to get to the root of the problem. Much of those solutions would, by the way, threaten the elite economic status of many of the people in Silicon Valley. In the meantime, our federal government is studying solar geoengineering. George Soros Bill Gates are talking about it. I mean, from where you are sitting, is there an air of inevitability? Not that we will necessarily do this, change the climate from down here on earth in the next 5 years. But that we will

"I've been using this same icebreaker to start the podcast for probably a year and a half, but I'm just going to stick with it because I've found out the best stuff about people with this very simple question that I'm about to ask you, which is, please share one fun fact or an unlikely fact or just something plain interesting about yourself, but the caveat is that it has to be something that not a lot of other people already know. So one thing that I always go back to that I think not a lot of people know. So I went to mount holyoke in western Massachusetts. Majoring in international relations and Spanish, but I wrote my senior thesis in Latin American studies, and it was about the conception of authenticity in I think what I called contemporary quick casual Mexican restaurants was basically there were sort of a trend in sort of fast casual Mexican restaurants. Where I grew up in California at the time. And it was I spent a year on this incredibly esoteric topic trying to understand the expression of authenticity, the idea of experience, the idea of sort of front of house, back of house, and how you sort of make an experience come to life for customers. And really this idea of culture and food studies, which was pretty emerging at the time. This was quite a while ago. And so it was this really funny thing. I love doing it. It was a real passion. And I was so grateful to have the space to be able to do it. But I say it now because now many years later, I think I look back on that. And a lot of those themes around authenticity around experience, certainly around the culture at large is are things that I go back to sort of day in and day out as a marketer. So it sort of turned out to be something that I think very unintentionally set out a little bit of a little bit of a path for me. I was going to say, as you were speaking, there is a real dotted line. Between what you're talking about and marketing. It's quite clear, actually. Yeah, it was very, couldn't have been less intentional, was never in my head at all. But it is funny to look back and see those seeds. Well, let's keep tracing your trajectory. So were you always interested in luxury fashion, like how did you find your way into that where you are now? I actually always wanted to be a lawyer. So I wanted to be a lawyer from age four to sophomore year of college. And I have a four year old daughter and I look at her and she wants to be, I think either an astronaut or a digger driver. Being a lawyer at four is still I look at her, it's very strange. But I wanted to be a lawyer forever and then took a constitutional law class in college and looked around and everyone else was riveted and I was so bored and I said, oh boy, this is not going to work. And so I ended up pivoting, worked in investment banking. I worked at a startup. Always sort of around the idea of retail. I really loved going back actually to that thesis. I always loved the idea of getting as close to the consumer as possible.

It's an old girl's college. But you shouldn't assume that it's a girl. He may be a she, she may be a he, but it's an old girl's college. Also, you must understand the shallowness of every leftist every, not every liberal, every leftist. It is almost immeasurable. I don't know if you can say that about shallowness, usually about depth. Nevertheless. Understand that the battles that they wage were in all girls school so you can't say freshmen. Because we weak, weak, I mean, the opposite of strong, females, can't handle the word freshman. It's jolting. Feminist and weak is almost synonymous. This is a perfect example. You pathetic girls and we pathetic faculty and deans and president of mount holyoke. We can't handle the word freshmen at an old girl school. Do you understand folks? She said that, but I know it didn't register in the depth of its shallowness. To all of you, these are the battles that they wage, because they are spoiled brats. They have life so good. They need to find some meaning. They're secular vessels of emptiness of vapid Ness. This is a battle that must be waged, get rid of the word freshman.

"Year of the pandemic, you wrote a play every day. Yes. And now, of course, your play is for the play gear. It's going to be produced at the public. I heard from you that you had your first rehearsal today. We did. And I should say that you are performing acting, singing in this performance. Yes. I am. How can you please just what was the what's going on? Huh? Yes. No. What was the impulse behind doing? I know. Every day thing. Right. Well, no, I mean, we were all, you know, march 13th, what was it march 1320 20? And we all were minding our own business or at work or whatever. And they were like, we're shutting everything down. We're like, and I said, I need to do something to prepare for the moment where we all get back together. And I said, I don't know what that is. But I'm going to write a play. I could just sit at home at our dining room table where I write. And while remote schooling, third grader in the baby room apartment, which was at the dining room table also, husband there, too, we were living there, like all of us closed off from each other. I just started writing a play a day. And I showed it to the folks at the public theater where I am one of the writers in residence And Oscar used to say, this is great. Let's produce it. I said, okay. And then he said, you have to be in it. And I said, oh, really? He said, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I'd written one of the recurring characters in these little plays is called the writer. So I'd written myself into the plays without thinking that I was going to actually do it. I thought I was going to pass it on to a wonderful actor. Yeah. Maybe this is like a very road question, but what's it like to memorize on the level of performance is your own lines? It's a little strange. Because I thought for a while, I told the actors, I'm not acting like I said to them you're acting. I'm just being myself. And then I realized, well, I'm actually not even doing that. I'm pretending to be myself. So I'm not quite sure what it all means. But yeah. I love the fact that every time I read your bio somewhere, you always say her teacher was James Baldwin. That sense of literary ancestry. So alive in you. I love that you always, that's always a part of the package that we get with you. As a 18 year old, 19 year old? Yeah, 19 20. Yeah, I'm old. So yeah, it was when I was 1920, yeah. He taught at Hampshire college. I went to mount holyoke college, and you could take a class in the 5 college area, 5 college consortium. And I was one of the lucky ones, the 15 in the class. Around a library table, he said it was the first creative writing class that you taught. Which is kind of amazing. And there we were sitting there and I was very dorky and shy and very animated when I was writing short stories then. Very animated when I would read the loud like this and then and then the characters would have been, you know, I do all that and he was just he was just like watching me like this. And yeah, well any suggest that I write for the theater because I was so animated I had no desire to write for the theater at all because people were not alone. They all talk like that. Here I am. So yeah. Do you notice any differences in how people start out in their aspirations to be writers now that you're with students so often? And one thing that I think about, you didn't go to grad school to write, for example. Now, so many of the playwrights that we know institutions play a bigger part in creating artists these days. Or nurturing or launching or whatever. You want to use because it has that changed the structure of things or some of what we think of art and I think I think so. And again, the footnote to this is I teach it NYU. So I have, oh, yeah, my you, yeah, yeah. Go violets. And it's expensive. Yeah, it's high. That Bill is high. And I think that creates a lot of my students. But in my students, I think it creates a lot of unnecessary anxiety. When I graduate, I have to make, I have to pay this bill, but also the competitive nature of the institution creates a kind of anxiety that I think creates an artist specifically a writer who is, as I say in the wall of the new school, as you pass by, desperate to make their mark on the world. I was never desperate to make my I just wanted to do the best work I could. So I think there's an anxiety that is happening because of the way these institutions are training artists. And which is why I stated by you because I'm like, well, if the majority of the training is like this, then at least I can offer my outlook and my sort of say, throw my words into the pot with the others. In the times the other day, you

"Rouse. Welcome back to can we talk? The podcasts of the Jewish women's archive, where gender, history, and Jewish culture meat. I couldn't find any images of lesbians that looks like me or my friends or my lovers. I could not find them. Literally, it was a complete image desert. So I thought, if I want to see these images, I am going to have to make them myself. Photographer Joan Byron also known as Jeb, was born during the Second World War and grew up in a Jewish family in Washington D.C.. Jones started photographing lesbians in 1971. At a time when you could lose a job and apartment, or even your kids, if people suspected you were gay. Joan published her first book, eye to eye, portraits of lesbians, in 1979. The black and white photographs showed lesbians in their everyday lives at work at play with their children, kissing their partners. The images, common enough today were shocking at the time. Eye to eye was rereleased this year, and Judith rosenbaum recently talked with Joan about her photography, and the way her Jewish feminist and lesbian identities have intersected throughout her life. I think I was always a feminist. I think I was always a lesbian. When I was really young, I just felt the injustice of women not having equality. I wanted to do all the things the boys did. I was a tomboy. I was the only girl and a boy's little league team when I was young because they didn't have enough boys. And then later when I worked in a mom and pop camera store and the course they put me on the mom's side where you did the photo retailing, getting people's pictures printed. And I fought very hard to be moved to the pot side where they sold the cameras. And that's where I learned a lot. You know, by working in the camera store. That was your sort of grounding and photography. Well, I taught myself photography by a correspondence course, which is sort of like the retro version of an online course, whereas your lessons came to you in the mail. You know, the snail mail. So I was self taught both through the correspondence course and through work in the camera store. So when I came back from graduate school at Oxford University in England, where I was the only woman in my graduate college. I joined the women's liberation movement in 1970, which was pretty early. And I joined the women's liberation consciousness raising group. And when I came out as a lesbian with my lover in this group, we got expelled from the group. So my early feminist experience was. Not so good. Was that because you were a couple because you were exclusive or because of other political differences or can you say a little bit more about that? I was thrown out of a women's liberation consciousness raising group that included only straight women. Who thought my lover and I were straight and when we disclosed our lesbianism to them, they threw us out of the consciousness, raising group. I was not thrown out by lesbians at that point. I see. Later, the same lever and I worked out from a lesbian collective. But that's a whole different story. That wasn't because we were lesbians. That was because our politics were different than the other people in the lesbian collective. I think part of the problem was there was anti semitism in the collective and the fact that I was allowed pushy Jew was part of what they were pushing back against. What was your Jewish background? I was raised without much Jewish education. I believe my parents had a lot of internalized anti semitism. Because they had suffered discrimination as Jews in their own use. My father had wanted to go to medical school, but couldn't because of the quotas and my mother had to pass as Christian to get a job during the depression. At least those are the stories I grew up with. So as you were growing up and sort of having these incipient feminist awareness and standing up for yourself as a woman and as a lesbian or someone who was coming of ages lesbian, what was your family's response? I think my mother was sort of a Proto feminist. You know, my father ironed all his own clothes because she just said, I'm not doing that. When my sister came out to them for me, because my mother said to my sister, je Joan has Nike Friends and my sister said the equivalent of duh, you know, we went through a period of they wouldn't talk to me. I mean, she always knew I was a lesbian, I think. You know, what's not hard to know that. But she didn't want her daughter to be a lesbian. Like many parents partly because she didn't want all the hardships that might come with that for me and partly because she didn't want to feel like she had done something wrong. You know, my father was always sort of neutral about it. We just didn't talk about it. You know, don't ask don't tell went on for a while. And then I get kind of sick of that. And I started inviting them to like my book launch parties and my slide shows and they started coming and my mother loved it because at the time queer people, any time a parent was present and seemingly supportive, they went wild. So she would stand up and wave like the queen, you know, and everybody would applaud for her and she got to be the good guy. Yeah, yeah. So, you know, they came around. So tell me a little bit about how you became a photographer and why photography. I became a photographer because I wanted to do something I had not been taught how to do in patriarchal institutions. I had a very privileged, very patriarchal education. I went to mount holyoke college. And then I went to Oxford University. And I when I got into this radical lesbian feminist collective, it became clear to me because of things like collective members said that my mind had been polymerized in a certain sense. I was using these Oxford ways of arguing..

We're gonna take this laid out of here in. The police was expected to protest. But we just thought that clinton told them care home. Get regular food. Step out of here so we can have rio church up in here. Not this craig's churches. She won't have no well. That's the news. Pat's it onto your mom and telling mistake to come back to church senate crave later. Go ahead our guest. Today is pastor. Stephen stephen broden. The book is pawns of change pastor. When you every person. I know Who grew up in the church which is most who happens to be black. They are the most socially conservative people. I know values based church based and yet the democrat party has had a hold on the black on black voters in large numbers in this country with an agenda. That is antithetical to everything. My friends believe how. How do they keep both groups under under one tent. Well the bible makes it clear in colossians chapter two. I eight see to it that no one takes you captives callosities empty deceptions according to the traditions and according to the elementary principles of the world rather than according to jesus christ we are people who are so sensitive about racism that will listen to anyone who will tell us that we are in the category of where we are in america because of racist and we listened to them and we're no longer listening to jesus christ we're no longer seeing the world through a biblical lynn. We're seeing it through the lens of the marxist. There are instruments that are in the toolbox of the marxist let have been used very effectively against us liberation theology. James cone retried theology out of a bible theology into a race theology intersection -ality crt critical theory and by the way critical theory is a method used by the socialists. To ties everything to destroy. All of these are instruments in the toolbox used to create division to create strife at separation in the culture. the goal of every good marxist and socialist is to create chaos. Chaos is their best friend because out of chaos. Come a new world order. So when you're no longer listening to christ when you're no longer studying the scriptures and allowing god's definition of what is right versus. What is wrong that you're subject to the seduction allurement of the left and that with happen to the church in the black community and in america it is quite frankly inept it has no power because he's not listening to the voice of christ pasture when you say what you've just said coming from your heart based on your faith with love for your fellow man of all colors. What do blacks that have. Maybe never heard this before. Respond to you. Because they have to overcome your objection. They have to disagree. What do people say to you. I get a reaction from all spectrums. There are those who are aware of the fact that what i'm saying is true and they're broken hearted as what has happened to us as a community. They have been guilty of voting for black politicians who are socialist until soda community out. Then there are those who are angry because all they see is raised and that they see their problem as a result of phrases and they're angry at me and they're calling me names and they're avoiding me as much as they can. Do you care that they're angry at you. Does it matter to you at this time. America is about the flip. I'ma found the alarm. I must tell the truth at all cost and that that means i stand alone i stand alone but i'm not standing alone. There people waking up to recognizing that this has been an organic not an organic effort is been a synthetic effort to flip america to change us. The bill gates. Did george soros the warren. Buffett's the the clouds flop. These men are working to create a new world. Order it. they're buying. They believe that they can create something better than what we have. Right now. It is So let's get it. This is this through our political power. We can make a new race of men and women who will live in the harmony and peace with our principles of social justice and socialism. Just what they see everything we have they hate and they wanna replace it and create something brand new and of course you know so. Let's get dedicated.

And we have a race hand from pam chase sick so few ameet yourself. Can you hear me okay. Great yes and be simply outside Professor at manhattan college in new york actually just down the road from where judas Also co founder and executive editor of the earth negotiations bulletin that reports on u n environment and development negotiations and you mentioned the sustainable development goals. And i've been actually Bill that's been built into my curriculum since their negotiation. I was part of the negotiations and brought it in and I'm having more difficult. Challenge bringing that into the college is a whole We've been proposing projects from my class. That can be done on campus And as you noted many of the more socioeconomic ones tend to be for the students than the environmental ones which to so But i'm wondering if you're using them at all in terms of how you're couching the program and at mount holyoke and how you're able to get more administrative by him to that okay so this this is a good segue for me to talk about the issue for those of you. Folks who may not have heard of she. Issue is the association for advancement of sustainability in higher education. I happen to be on the board of itchy for those of you who may not a lot of it. Item you to check out their website. An overly become members. What she does is. It's come out In addition to being a resource for sustainability professionals across the country in fact across the would It's also come up with a benchmarking tool for sustainability called starts. Stars is an acronym for sustainability tracking assessment and rating system. Stars is is actually based on our is modeled in a sense struggling to use the right word on the unco. Dvd's on it you know. So it's it's kind of relates to the unions. Do let me put it that route. It relates to the un sdg's so my goal. So i'm as i mentioned. I'm relatively new year at mount holyoke and it's been endemic year but the goal is to use stars not just as a benchmarking tool but also as as as a tool within curricular engagement and since the since it's late so closely the u. n. d. Jeez my feeling is that that would be a much better approach for me here khalil. Uganda bring bring the conversation of the sdg's Within within a faculty within students and within staff grew so. That's the approach. I'm planning on taking over here. It hasn't happened yet but that's the plan. I don't know this response Satisfied you. But i'm happy to elaborate. It is Sustainability is gone to the controversial so Where in offense moving upstream so. The difficulty that you encounter are not unique. I mean i've encountered the same in the place of that what it is One of the biggest misconceptions is it's going to involve the austerity. It is going reduction consumption but the counter to that is the building communities what we need is communities and less consumption. So that's my that's my spiel essentially when i tried to promote the un sdg's Is the chair of department of political science at zaba University of louisiana. What has been mount. Holyoke raiders success with waste. Reduction has this or is this being incorporated into learning across the campus or only in statistic subject areas so listed action are the recycling readers. Pretty good it's over fifty percent the numbers from this buster. Don't really count. Because there was a fantastic year but overall before i got here. Waste reduction beckham. Any of the schools was pretty pretty Pretty good It would be nice to waste. But we're not day when it comes to Incorporating this with curriculum at this point as i mentioned earlier the environmental studies program the students within that program and the fact that he was within that program. I'm more focused on this aspect of of sustainability Bustier we had some students who are still your on campus. Begin a composting program. A small composting program. And what has happened now. Is that Facilities facilities management has built on the program and instituting life composting in on residents halls. Now so that projects like this which dot out a student projects but then ended up being institutionalized. That's one example knowledge. We do have waste ago when it comes to Approaching zero waste. It's not there yet. And we always have a ways to go to incorporate this kind of behavior in due on aspects of local next question concerned page fortnight Assistant professor at columbia university in the salsa instituted. Warren studies at how much of the impetus for mount holyoke. Sustainability plan has come from the top administration and how much from pressure from faculty students staff. And i'm gonna throw an alumni. Is there pressure also from alumni so we so let me distinguish between a sustainability plan in it energy mastic land. We will be working on a sustainability plan right now. What's going to energy master-plan The pressure has been kind of diffused. But it's come from various quarters. So i wouldn't say it's been one noth- one group of one group of constrict one group constituents. It's just as student pressure to go cover neutral There are some very very interesting faculty that have been pushing administered administration to go cover neutral. Many of our alumni also bury dongo carbon neutrality and so The pressure in this particular institution has come from many waters. Not not just one It hasn't been just one radical. Google students are one radical faculties being a mixture. Great next question comes from john murray. Who is a director of international engagement at heston college.

You know, it gets complicated, but the farther you go up the food chain to the most selective Public's in private, the more likely it is that people are paying full price. And if some of these institutions of many years 60 65% of the families of painful process So what? What seems so crazy to Miran is? Why don't we just mark the price like it should be because I feel like we're on this crazy like Hamster trail like you know, and it's just schools have to raise a lot of money for their endowment, and people have to donate a lot of money for it, and I feel like the cost of the school has just gone on it like there's just this weird thing that's going on. Why don't we just set the price as it is? What You know what we're getting, and maybe it would make it more affordable that you wouldn't need to have so much need based aid go out. Yeah, You know, I wish it was simpler right? But we're generally talking about two different kinds of schools. Right. We're talking about public one's private ones. And then the private ones that sells gets subdivided because there are you know, private, super selective schools that do have endowments that throw off a fair amount of income each year. But then there's a whole mess of private colleges and universities that are extremely tuition driven. And they don't have endowments to throw off enough money to support the institutions. And so there's a transfer going on, You know, higher income, higher place tag people. Said. You guys in the lower price. Take people, right. So you know you ask about this notion of tuition reset, right? Why don't they just lower the price? If everybody's getting a discount anyway, so that would pose to problems. First of all there is this. Fury in the higher education marketplace known as the Chivas Regal effect that's based on a legend. That may not even be true that at one point in the past, Chivas Regal tripled its price and quadrupled its sales overnight. And so these schools feel like if they lower their list price is that people will think less of them and then just about every school, though not all of them. There are a few people who still pay full price, particularly international families, or just, you know, people domestically who are just like thanking their lucky Stars that their kids got their act together, and they're happy to write a check of any size, right? Who's that revenue? You lose that incremental revenue If you lower the list price? Listen, hang hold onto that thought wrong. We have to do some news, but we'll come back and continue this conversation. I feel like everybody's just stopped in their places because we all want to understand this because it just doesn't always make sense. We'll come back with Ron Lieber and talking about his new book, the Price You Pay for college. In the meantime. Back to Nancy Lines for the check on world the National News. Hey, Nance. Hey, Carol, officials say in January, the U. S recorded more than 95,500 Covad related deaths. That's the worst monthly total..

"All right. Emily kwong i can think of few things more fundamental to our existence than our senses like this morning. I was drinking. My coffee and coffee is such a multi sensory experience. If you pay attention to it you've got that little sloshing coffee sound the warm mug on inside your little pause than that smell. Honestly the tagline of our show should be shortwave brought to you by coffee and off all the senses. I asked our neurobiologist andre white. His favorite food easter. I'm gonna say taste. I asked him when the pandemic is over and travel restrictions are lifted. What would you eat. I and he said no question. Aki in salt fish in jamaica where he grew up he is a fruit that grows on a tree. There that you can boil and salt. Fish is called that has been preserved in salt. And i just i love it all i mean. It sounds delicious. Qualm sensory information is potent. Andre says that from a neurological perspective you can think of our senses as an internal representation of our external environment as well as our place in movements through that environment. More on that in a minute. But first i wanna talk about. What makes this all possible. Your sensory nervous system. What i didn't realize until talking to andre is that this system is finally finely tuned so the unique thing about our senses is that we have specialized receptors that are tuned to individual stimulus. What right so the reason why that blows my mind right. So the reason why you can see light with your eyes as because we have photo receptors in our eyes and the reason you can't see light using your ears is because we don't have photo receptors in our ears. And so the information for those individual types of stimulus they get converted into electrical and chemical signals into the nervous system so chemo receptors figure heavily into taste and smell for touch which he defines as our samata sensory system we've a variety of receptors. Some pickup pressure and temperature but also pain it some help with proprio -ception which keeps track of where our limbs are at any moment like whether your arms reaching out for that cup of coffee or scratching your head. I knew these aren't like senses but what about like hunger or thirst. Yeah andrea would describe those more motivational states then part of our somatic sensory system. I have often been motivated by the states. You know what i mean. Okay okay so a sense could be broadly defined not as a specific type of stimuli of information from the outside world but this highly specialized circuitry in our bodies with all these receptors paying attention to different stimuli and then converting them into signals our brains can stand. You nailed it. Yup and it all gets put together in the brain to give us in large part without consciousness a representation of the things we see feel hear taste. You know i feel like this is getting into some like phil asaf territory kwong you know like because if our senses are just a representation of the outside world in our brain how do we know if the world is real you know do you mean are we living in the matrix. I mean. i'm not meaning that andrei personally says this question is best left to philosophers because there's debate about how to even define a sense right but no matter how you argue it. His point is that knowledge of the senses can help us modify them. It also allows us to take advantage of that circuitry so if we think of hearing aids understanding how we hear allows us to convert sound waves in the environment into electrical signals artificially and then tap into our auditory system. So that people who have whether it's they were born with an inability to hear or they received damage to the hearing system we can now bypass that inability in order to convert sound into signals at our brains

Making Gay History
Barbara Smith
"Arbor. Smith has never been a single issue activist her entire life. She's demanded justice and dignity for those whose voices aren't heard that's just how she was raised. I Barbara and her twin sister beverly reborn in Nineteen forty-six in Cleveland Ohio. That's where the family had settled after leaving. Small Town Georgia in the Jim Crow South South their mother Hilda. The first person in the family to earn a college degree died when they were nine. The sisters were then raised by their extended family in a household of women who put great stock education in the mid nineteen sixties. Barbara attended mount. Holyoke an all women's college where she later recalled she surrounded by quote Lesbian undercurrents that were not spoken at the time. Barbara wasn't aware of any gay rights efforts and while her feelings for women and were nothing new she didn't come out. Until the mid nineteen seventy s nine hundred seventy four barber co founded the combat. He river collective a black black feminist organizing group dedicated to the struggle against quote racial sexual heterosexual and class oppression in nineteen eighty barbara and Audrey Lorde the self-described Black Lesbian feminist mother poet Warrior Co founded the kitchen table. Women of Color Press. It was run by and for women of color whose writings got short shrift shrift by the mainstream publishing industry by the time I interviewed Barbara. She'd been speaking truth to power for decades as a woman against Misogyny as as an African American against racism as lesbian against Homophobia and as a black lesbian against those in the gay rights movement. Who sidelined the concerns of LGBTQ jibbed Q.? People of Color. So here's the scene. It's January twenty ninth. Two thousand one and Barbara has driven from her home and Albany New York to my weekend. Place a half hour south. We're seated on an overstuffed SOFA looking at photographs. That Barbara brought with her. She shows me a photo of herself and her twin sister at the nineteen seventy-nine national march on Washington for Lesbian and gay rights. This is my sister and me. At the March seventy nine and I'm the one on the right with my hair braided and I was thinking about that. As as I pulled that picture out I mean it took hours to get my hair braided. I only did it like a couple of times because I am so not into the the Muslim festival. The I was thinking like just seeing the fact that I had my hair braided shows how special I thought this March was. Do you recall anything about the march. You spoke or I just remember the feeling of incredible joy and being there and excitement there is such a kick in being visible and out and doing that in a mass way I think that if one is like manifesting or if one is visible and by yourself that's really kind of scary. Three scares me to this day. But the thing is to have the The support of numbers everything. This is a general statement undeveloped. The seventies are the second half of the seventies which was a period. When I was first out? There is a feeling that we could do anything. I had the feeling that we could do anything that everything was possible. Because we were toppling such mammoth taboos and such a mammoth notions oceans. That women were supposed to be passive and stay at home and have a baby and in in black nationalist context. Stay home and have babies for the nation. This extreme amount seems to me of male chauvinism in in a certain context which is a direct result of racism and the deficit of never be able to lead in have freedom in a racist country so to make up for white supremacy in certain black. Political context of black men are even more chauvinistic. Because they're really we're GONNA show you who's boss because they are so rightfully angry about not being recognized as capable and full human beings in context were white men and get to call the shots. Being a lesbian feminist. As I was in that period was about just sticking holes you know in in every terrorist value and belief lesbian work there was an actual lesbian feminist movement which was very vital and Had great positive impact. On the way that issues in a variety of movements were were shaped and were defined during that period and we worked with gay men like we were able to work with gay men who were ready to deal with us so the thing is the line between lesbian feminism and feminism and the lesbian and Gay Liberation Movement. Those winds were not like hard and tossed so lesbian feminist were active in the reproductive rights movement. Lesbian feminists were key in building that while the movement against domestic violence and sexual assault. If it wasn't for less would be no movement but the thing is a lot lot of history is a racist we really we were so What's the word of hated? We were so hated and so ostracized Ivy League by our communities of Color. There is nothing saying to be heard. Hardly anything sane to be heard about the reality that not everybody. Here's heterosexual people. Color context anywhere I spoke Howard University used to have on national black writers conferences sponsor them throughout the seventies and I was invited to the last one would say ever had It was in nineteen seventy eight. I had written toward block them. Criticism in public set in nineteen seventy seven and As as a result of that I was invited to speak at that conference and I was supposed to speak from the essay where I talk about. Lesbian isn't lesbian. That lesbian the other this a perfect example of how black people were dealing with the reality of both gender and Sexuality Politics So I was invited to speak on their first panel. They'd ever had about about black women writers record no and they wouldn't even invite any other feminists I asked him to invite. Would you please put another feminist on this battle and they refuse to that It was at one of their large auditoriums at Howard The place is packed. You know maybe five hundred people. I read excerpts of twitter black feminist criticism and then I wrote a few paragraphs that were specifically aimed at the black community. Not Cruel things by any means. Just interpretive things that would be helpful. Given that essay had originally been and for primarily white feminists audience. So you know I read it you know and then I said and all hell broke loose because they were so upset that that music system deserve to be hated. Oh Yeah Oh no they while you gotta read the essay. You should read the essay. Because it's like when I tell you how upset they were you. You should see what they were responding to which was like. Hey you know. There's a black women's literary tradition. You know it's a strong and long as anybody else's legitimate and we use a feminist perspective to look at writing by black women. There is such a thing as sexism and the the people who are most marginalized in this whole mix or black lesbians in Black Lesbian Writers. But yet we're going to continue and do what we do.

Moon Rocks Still Awe, And Scientists Hope To Get Their Hands On More
"Fifty years ago this month astronauts left their footprints on the moon what they brought home was rocks we have a ton of moon rock was collected by the six Apollo missions to the lunar surface NPR's nail grant Nell greenfield voice looks at what happened to those rocks my scientists still want to go back and get more when Darby Dyer was a kid she remembers watching the Apollo astronauts return she'd see their capsule bobbing in the ocean as the astronauts emerge with some precious cargo they climbed out and then the very carefully to the lunar samples and put them in the little river boat you were watching on TV absolutely the box holding the rocks look like an igloo cooler she never thought that someday she would study those rocks I was growing up in Indiana in the nineteen sixties girl didn't do science I never saw a woman scientist she set out to be a journalist but ended up majoring in geology as a college student she started working for a researcher who gotten some of the newly arrived moon rocks she remembers how he kept them under lock and key we all knew that the filing cabinet in his office was the safe you know I remember my hands shaking the first time he said well you know crying this up and put it in the same folder and I was like are you sure Dyer is still studying moon rocks she's a researcher with the planetary science institute who is also a professor at Mount Holyoke College at her lab there she shows me a bunch of lunar samples Somers theme translucent slices of rock on microscope slides others look like gray pebbles in tiny glass vials a few vials look empty if you had the microscope you could look at these files that seem to be empty and in them you would find tiny single crystals of lunar samples which we carefully save because we have to return every speck of this the Johnson Space Center when we're done Johnson Space Center in Houston Texas is the chief repository for Apollo samples the rocks and dirt are stored in special cases involves Ryan Ziggler is the curator he says the Apollo astronauts collected eight hundred and forty two pounds of lunar material eight hundred forty two pounds is couple refrigerators worth of samples in terms of sheer volume and wait he says a tiny fraction of all this was destroyed in analytical experiments some of it is on display like in museums but the vast majority is available for study there were two thousand two hundred individually numbered samples that came back and we looked at two thousand one hundred ninety four of them so we only have six unstudied samples from the moon I love the unstudied ones a few are pristine they were vacuum sealed on the moon and have never been opened NASA was waiting for technology to advance and now the agency says it's time to open one it's not exactly because it's the fiftieth anniversary but it sort of is NASA recently picked six science teams to study these precious rocks one of the lucky scientist is dire I think we knew that there had been some samples put away for future uses and what I remember as a graduate student thinking and I went I wonder what that could be what we were doing in forty years what she'll be doing is studying tiny glass beads that forms during ancient eruptions to learn about volcanic activity already lunar samples of told scientists a lot about how the moon formed when a giant body hit the early earth but they've also learned about the rest of the solar system by dating rocks from lunar craters they could tell when different sized meteorites hit the moon which help them understand the history of other planets they were being similarly bombarded so it's really the underpinning of a huge amount of Terry science just being able to relate the size of the crater to how old it was NASA is aiming to go back to the moon maybe as soon as twenty twenty four I asked dire if she could go to the moon and get any rock what would she want she says in the South Pole there's a giant crater where some massive impact seems to have punctured through the moon's crossed and exposed rocks that we don't see anywhere else on the surface of the moon I would love to go there and it it would be really really important to understand is the interior of the moon really what we think it is she sometimes marvels at how far the study of lunar materials has come over her lifetime I've also been known to get the samples out on the night of a full moon and stand there in my office when I can see the moon out my window in thank look you know I got party here you know we're on to you NASA will probably be ready to open the pristine sealed lunar
