The War For Kindness: Building Empathy In A Fractured World

https://audio.indeepradio.com/r/InDeep_AngieCoiro_190629P.mp3 Show #245 | June 29, 2019 | Empathy is in short supply. Isolation and tribalism are rampant. We struggle to understand people who aren’t like us, but find it easy to hate them. Studies show that we are less caring than we were even thirty years ago. In his groundbreaking new book, The War For Kindness, Jamil Zaki shares cutting-edge research, including experiments from his own lab, showing that empathy is not a fixed trait—something we’re born with or not—but rather a skill that can be strengthened through effort.To embed an audio player with this podcast on your site, use code snippet: <audio src="https://indeepradio.com/urls/3i" type="audio/mp3" controls="controls"></audio> ...

Tony Horwitz on Frederick Law Olmsted: Spying on the South, An Odyssey Across the American Divide

https://audio.indeepradio.com/r/InDeep_AngieCoiro_190601P.mp3 Show #242 | June 1, 2019 | It has been twenty years since Tony Horwitz's bestselling Confederates in the Attic brought America's modern North-South divide into the light, inviting readers on a trek through Civil War country. Now Horwitz retraces the footsteps of a New York Times correspondent who went South as a "spy" for the paper, a full decade before the War. Horwitz traces the route of sleuthing correspondent Frederick Law Olmsted; like Olmsted, collecting as he goes the voices and impressions that informed spectrums of race, money, politics, and power in the pre-war era. Olmsted was driven by what he learned to create spaces welcoming to all, culminating in his landscape design for Central Park. Horwitz, in his turn, has written Spying on the South: An Odyssey Across the American Divide. He probes Olmsted's travels and dispatches looking for lessons for today's brutally divided America. Two journeys, more than a century apart, illuminate our current divide. To embed an audio player...

https://audio.indeepradio.com/r/InDeep_AngieCoiro_190525P.mp3 Show #241 | May 25, 2019 | What's the best a man can be? And how has that ideal changed over time? What accounts for the rising profile of ugly, even violent misogyny, and how does the American village work to grow healthy men in its shadow? In Deep turns its eye to the future of masculinity in America. If past is prologue, what can we anticipate for coming generations struggling with the expectations of manhood? Stanford lecturer Dr. Judy Chu, an expert on boyhood, and Dr. Joseph Marshall, founder of the Alive and Free anti-violence program and the radio show Street Soldiers, shed light on this complex challenge.

Harriet Tubman: The Tubman Command, from writer Elizabeth Cobbs

https://audio.indeepradio.com/r/InDeep_AngieCoiro_190518P.mp3 Show #240 | May 18, 2019 | History writers have a choice: relaying a story bound by fact and record to produce a non-fiction account, or bring the people and times alive with a narrative arc. Acclaimed author Elizabeth Cobbs has succeeded in both. Her best-selling historical novel The Hamilton Affair gave life and depth to Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton and his wife, Eliza. Her nonfiction account of World War I telephone operators, The Hello Girls, became an off-Broadway musical. Now she's turned her deft hand to American hero Harriet Tubman in her new book The Tubman Command. This "Moses" of the Underground Railroad risked her life regularly to conduct escaped slaves to freedom. Cobbs fleshes out the facts of record into a fully-rounded tale of a strong woman, her times, and her love.To embed an audio player with this podcast on your site, use code snippet: <audio src="https://indeepradio.com/urls/3d" type="audio/mp3" controls="controls"></audio>...
