  • Encore Domestic Darkness: An Insider’s Account of January 6 Insurrection
    May 7 2024
    In previous episodes, we have addressed the rise of pronatalist extremism and the potential threats posed and faced by people without children, globally. This extremism is an integral part of the ideology driven by white supremacy and fueled right-wing conspiracies, and relates directly to the focus of our show today. In this episode we are honored to have Julie Farnam as our guest. Julie is the author of the newly released book, Domestic Darkness: An Insider's Account of the January 6 Insurrection and the Future of Right-Wing Extremism. In her book, she shares her personal and expert account of the January 6 Insurrection, which happed at the US Capitol building in 2021. She will share key insight into this tragic and terrifying attack, and in our conversation, we will navigate the actions preceding this violent attack, and what actually led to this unprecedented security breach, while assessing what must be done now to ensure our future security. We will also delve into the challenging realities of how white supremacy has remained an agile predator of vulnerable individuals falling prey to right-wing ideology in rising numbers, to comprise the greatest threat to domestic security today. Tune in live for this crucial conversation with Julie Farnam to learn more about the impact of domestic extremism in the United States, and what this means for all of us.

  • Encore How Do Historical Narratives of Single Women Inform Us Today?
    Apr 30 2024
    People who are single and without children, comprise a growing, global demographic, and yet, these lived experiences remain largely unacknowledged vis-a-via the status quo. There is also a common tendency to perceive the emergence of single people without children, as being very recent. This perspective both eclipses historical literature depicting the lives and voices of single women, and furthers the invisibility of every day discrimination and inequity, based on reproductive identity and relationship status. What can we learn from these cultural narratives and the historic contexts in which they were written? Today, we are honored to be in conversation with Dr. Katherine Fama, who will share her in-depth work and perspectives on the historical narratives of single women in literature, and how these narratives relate and inform us today. Dr. Fama is the coeditor of Single Lives: Modern Women in Literature, Culture, and Film, and teaches in the School of English, Film, and Drama at University College Dublin. Tune in to learn more!
