  • Christopher Lydon's Topic
    The Transom Review Vol. 1/Issue 13 Christopher Lydon’s Topic About Christopher Lydon Christopher Lydon has been an unconventional voice in print and broadcast journalism for more than 30 years-covering presidential politics in the Washington bureau of the New York Times; anchoring the “Ten O'Clock News” on WGBH, public television in Boston; and as the founder and host of "The Connection" at WBUR since 1994. He "blends the expansiveness of the Renaissance thinker with a trademark Boston toughness," the Boston Globe observes. Born in Boston in 1940, he graduated from the Roxbury Latin School and Yale. Lydon ran for mayor of Boston in 1993 in a citizens' campaign for radical school reform. Christopher Lydon Links Christopher Lydon's Website www.christopherlydon.org "The Connection" Archives www.theconnection.org A Word From Jay Allison September 21, 2001 It may seem an odd time to focus on craft, but craft is often what gets you through. The ability to do the job well is always important, and especially in a crisis. Further, our chosen work -- radio -- is essential in any modern crisis. Much depends on our skill, more than we sometimes know. Certainly radio is important as a lifeline, a communication link, but also... for conversation, for connection. If you live within earshot of Boston -- or anywhere else “The Connection” aired under Christopher Lydon's hostship -- you know he is one of the finest practitioners of the radio talk show craft, ever. Copyright 2001 Atlantic Public Media The Transom Review – Vol.1/ Issue 13 There were days listening to that program where the primary response was a feeling of gratitude.

Copyright restrictions may apply. CHAPTER NINE Race and Ethnicity Sergio Romero Chapter Objectives At the end of this chapter, students should be able to: • Describe race and ethnicity as social constructions, and how they are interconnected. • Describe how each paradigm explains race differently. • Explain the foundations of race as a socially divisive force. • Describe how life chances are manifestations of race. • Explain the relationship between racial privilege and social inequality. • Identify how race exists alongside, and in connection with, other social structures. • Identify the persistence of race in modern society. ave you ever considered a reality in which you had the ability to create an image of your liking? What body shape and height would you select? Hair color and texture? Eye color? Skin tone? In the 2009 science-fiction film theSurrogates , people do just that. They live their lives through surrogate robots of their choos- Hing. If sociologists were to study this phenomenon, they would first observe the selections people made. Second, they would try to understand why people selected the features they did. How did they determine what their ideal charac- teristics should be? The explanations would be numerous, but one of them would probably include the significance of race. Race is a funny thing.We see racial diversity in mass media, yet as one observer pessimistically quipped, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
