History's Hard Lessons: Learn How to Reclaim your Power Through Historical Insight w/ Dr. Colin Snider

Remember all those names I've been bringing up and all of their philosophies I've made connections between? Well we're going to talk some more on those guys. But more importantly what role we can play in reclaiming our own power. In this episode, we delve into how historical discourse has shaped our understanding of personal agency and societal norms. We'll explore the fascinating intersection of fashion laws, gendered beverages, and moralistic crusades, uncovering how these elements reflect broader trends in controlling individual freedoms. By examining these historical injustices, we highlight the importance of learning from the past to foster a more equitable future. Join us as we discuss how paying attention to history can empower us to challenge outdated norms and envision a more inclusive society.

Fashion Police, Legalized Homophobia & Preachers in Pursuit of Purity: A Discussion of 'Morality' in America w/ Dr. M. Rhys Dotson

SURPRISE #2! MUAHAHAHA! I am joined by Dr. Dotson from UT Tyler to dive into the concept of forced morality and how it has shaped our social norms across just a short span of time in the United States. We'll explore how the idea of "that's just the way things are" has been used to justify oppressive practices and maintain the status quo. By tracing the origins of these beliefs, we'll reveal how they are not immutable truths but rather constructed realities. Join us as we challenge the notion that societal norms are fixed and discover how understanding and questioning these narratives can lead to a more equitable and just society! Join the charge!

WTF(oucault): Continuing our Understanding of Discourse & Public Torture?!

Hiiii everyone! Welcome back to another episode on discourse, and if you're sick of it, that is too bad! This is super important stuff, it's like eating your vegetables. Side note- I confused books/authors, Foucault did not write Crime and Punishment. That book is completely different and written by a popular Russian author (sorry I am in my Dostoyevsky era, and confused the two). If you're interested in Foucault's analysis of torture: Discipline & Punish: The Birth of the Prison by Michel Foucault If you liked what you heard today, or didn't at all and would like to file a complaint with our super official complaints department, find me on Instagram @kellynornelas DISCLAIMER: ALL OPINIONS EXPRESSED IN THIS EPISODE BELONG TO THE PARTICIPANTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY OFFICIAL OPINIONS OF INSTITUTIONS THAT THEY ARE AFFILIATED WITH
