【UChicago Podcast】As an academic studying American politics at University of Chicago, Assistant Professor Ruth Bloch Rubin recognizes she is living in an unprecedented time that future political historians will be studying intently. It is equally a great time to indulge in her political nerdiness with her students. In this episode, Professor Bloch Rubin discusses the importance of feeling driven by one's research focus but also being open to pivoting and adapting to one's experience and social changes.

💡"Americans like happy history. the kind of history where you have parades." 💡 This quote is from Dr. David Pilgrim, the guest in our upcoming episode of Systemic. Dr. Pilgrim runs the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia at Ferris State University, whose aim is for us to witness, understand, and heal from our history. A history that when not fully told, only tells part of the American story. If you listen to and follow the podcast, you know where my politics lie. Entering into this election season, I believe that the mission of the museum is critical and paramount to the future of this country. Our country. There are far too many who want to return to "better times" and that sentiment is one you can only have if you've chosen to ignore what those "better times" were like for those who don't look, practice, love, think, or speak like you. In this extended preview of our November episode, Dr. Pilgrim share a gruesome story of what some of his research unearthed. Please view with discretion, but also understand that any move backwards is a move in the wrong direction. The episode "Jim Crow Imagery" will drop on Monday, Nov. 4th. Make sure you're subscribed wherever you listen or watch your podcasts so you don't miss this and other powerful history lessons. #jimcrow #racialprogress #blackface #racialjustice #americanhistory #systemic #podcasting

The Logical Case for Socialism (and Against Capitalism) w/ Scott Sehon is out now and available here - https://lnkd.in/gf94pidE or wherever you listen to the Upstream podcast! 🎙️ Scott Sehon is a Professor of philosophy at Bowdoin College and author of the book Socialism: A Logical Introduction, published by Oxford University Press. In this episode, we introduce the philosophical study of logic and how to construct and deconstruct logical formulas and logical arguments. We then apply this knowledge to the real world by asking what is the better economic system: socialism or capitalism? In the process we discredit and overturn some of the most common arguments for capitalism, we explore what we actually mean by socialism and socialistic societies, we explore a great deal of empirical data suggesting the superiority of societies with more democratic control and more egalitarian distribution, and, we talk about the importance of utilizing the tools of logic and reason for systems change.

I sit down with Byron in this podcast clip to discuss the #impact of abstract thought on human behaviour. We delve into the reasons behind the increasing popularity of conspiracy theories in today's information-rich environment. Throughout our conversation, we explore how abstract thinking #influences our perceptions and decision-making processes. Abstract thought, while essential for making connections and understanding complex concepts, can also lead to negative biases, particularly towards perceived threats. We examine how #media sources shape our views and the importance of critical thinking in navigating information overload. Our #discussion highlights the subjective nature of thoughts and the significance of individual perspectives. Join us as we unravel the complexities of abstract thought and its implications for #society. Please share any similar experiences you have with abstract thinking and its effects on your worldview.
