  • What the Forgotten Americans Really Want − and How to Give It to Them
    What the forgotten Americans really want − and how to give it to them By Isabel Sawhill October 2018 America is divided—economically, politically, and culturally. Income inequality is at virtually unprecedented levels. Political polarization has risen to new heights (although the public is less polarized than their elected representatives). And we are sorting ourselves into distinctive cultural tribes that increasingly live in different communities. The proportion of parents who would be disturbed if their child married someone from the opposite party has risen from 5 percent in 1960 to about 50 percent now. 1 The election of Donald Trump didn’t cause these divisions, but his presidency is exacerbating them. With midterm elections fast approaching and the future of our political system at a crossroads, the question on everyone’s mind is: what can we do? In an attempt to answer this question, I spent the last two years studying people I’m calling the “forgotten Americans”—those who’ve been left behind by our evolving economy, many of whom voted for Trump. That work gave me some tentative answers, which I’ve published in my new book, The Forgotten Americans: An Economic Agenda for a Divided Nation. But it also reaffirmed how difficult these questions are, and how none of us—myself included—has all the answers. As part of my research, I met with some of the forgotten Americans themselves. What did they think of my solutions to these problems? I went to Syracuse, New York; Greensboro, North Carolina; and St. Louis, Missouri. The people I spoke to were diverse in terms of age, race, occupation, and political leaning, and had modest incomes—less than $70,000 a year—and no college degree.

    Copyright By Jennifer Leann Weir 2020 Abstract This thesis reviews four young adult/new adult retellings to understand how these novels shape understanding of and empathy for real world social issues. The first chapter explores the novel Girls Made of Snow and Glass and how the reshaping of the “Snow White” narrative, within the text, undermines the patriarchal narrative that pits woman against woman and, instead, tells a story of female solidarity. Chapter two considers A Court of Thornes and Roses and A Court of Mist and Fury and how the fallout of “The Beauty and the Beast” narrative in book one carries into book two as a means to build empathy and understanding for those suffering with mental health issues, including those suffering with PTSD. Finally, Chapter three reviews The Lunar Chronicles and how the pandemic within these science fiction retellings foster discussion around medical injustices and the dehumanization that allows such injustice to occur.

  • Dr. William Long 28 April 2001 Karen Brewster Interviewer (Begin Tape 1
    Dr. William Long 28 April 2001 Karen Brewster Interviewer (Begin Tape 1 - Side A) (000) KB: This is Karen Brewster and today is Saturday, April 28th, 2001. I'm here at the home of William Long in Palmer, Alaska, and we're going to be talking about his Antarctic and Arctic experiences and career. So, thank you very much for having me here. WL: Well, it's great to have you here Karen. It's an opportunity that I'm happy to participate in. KB: Well, good. And this is for the Byrd Polar Research Center at Ohio State. You very nicely wrote everything down and started to answer the questions, but I'm going to go through it so we can talk about things. WL: And I won't have those in my hand, so you can compare my answers to your questions. KB: So, let's just start with when and where you were born and a little bit about your childhood. 2 WL: I was born August 18th, 1930, in Minot, North Dakota. My father was a schoolteacher and he had taken his first job at Belva, which is near Minot, and it was that year that I was born. It was one of the coldest years they had experienced and perhaps that influences my interest in cold areas. But, my mother has told me that it was the year that it was below 50 below there and the cows froze in the field across from the home they lived in. We only lived there one year and from that point, we moved to California when I was one year old, and essentially I was raised in California, until I began adult life.
