The Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute is dedicated to innovative approaches to teaching, research, and public programming. Located in the heart of New York City, the institute provides a platform from which high quality scholarship effectively informs and influences public debate and public life. The mission of Roosevelt House is three-fold: to educate students in public policy and human rights, to support faculty research, and to foster creative dialogue.
Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute provides opportunities for students to analyze public policy and experience meaningful civic engagement; for faculty to research, teach, and write about important issues of the day; and for scholarly and public audiences to participate in high-profile lectures, seminars and conferences.
4:40 - I believe more precision here would've been helpful, specifically by highlighting that the U.S.'s poor are mostly white even if each race's fraction of poor is higher for minorities. Put another way, a large number of whites were not participating in the majority's prosperity. I write this not to minimize minority poverty, but to highlight that presenting poverty as a minority issue is a misleading mischaracterization.
Even 11 years after its recording, this conversation is so very important to people like me trying to reset my own mind to cope with the mindboggling inequality we see now and the fercious attitude of financial elites in the face of any form expose, which DG so ably contributed to. Long live the legacy of David Graeber, supremely missed RIPower.
I have a question. How in hell do you approach the subject and not establish the base fact that America is a war nation? That for nearly every year of its existence, America has been at war or fermenting war elsewhere in the world?? That America is entirely invested in war. That war is a giant part of America's very identity. Are you ignoring this fact? Or are you not aware of this fact? Jesus.
Gotta tell ya, he was spot on with Syriza being "kicked". What happened was they made Varoufakis resign (given that he would not sign the thrid bailout) and everyone else submitted. Painfully and lucidly documented in "Adults in the Room".
This guy's strong bias against the Duke Lacrosse team is obvious from virtually the first words out of his mouth. He makes lots of lame excuses for the rogue prosecutor (later disbarred and jailed) and the false accuser (now in jail for murder in a separate case). His apologies for the prosecutor are totally absurd and his cavalier dismissal of the notorious public letter written by the 88 faculty members is just ridiculous. He obviously sees himself as making the case for these rogues in spite of everything. He's totally unreliable and his stance is quite disgusting. Read Stuart Taylor Jr. and KC Johnson's "Until Proven Innocent" instead. Don't waste your time with Cohan's 600 page waste of time. He also repeatedly says "you know", a very annoying verbal habit.
It's very simple ....according to him . Amazing that no other economic thinker thought of it until he came along .?!? He is an opinionated bore who's been banging on about his " discovery " for the last 10 years .
Without reporting the War and Peace derivivation of beliefs about existence.., after the talk, read Steve Keen Debunking Economics. It's the functional world of Magical Thinking.., Labelling is optional, Thinking fast and slow for yourself applies constantly-continuously.
Another alternative is time-based currencies as in LETS (Local Exchange Trading System) or CES (Community Exchange System). It can suffer from bureaucratic overhead and difficulty in adoption alongside an existing market economy, but it's possible to imagine a more efficient digital time-based economy. Possibly based on a secure append-only ledger, technologically similar to but otherwise very different from the blockchain crypto currencies of today. It's definitely worth exploring, I think.
His most treacherous act to appoint Allen Dallas Ex director of CIA fired by Kennedy!!!!In Warren Committee's. Instead of putting him On trial!!!!It looks really he wants to cover up everything!!!
Both in bed [though most rarely😎] and at his elbows constantly...roooosefelt was surrounded by élite marxist handlers. Our parents and grandparents and great grandparents hated this enemy agent among us -- four ,,terms" ?? I learned early on that one called the outhouse ,,eleanor"...delightful common scent IMO.🐽🐽🐽 💞🇺🇸🇺🇸💞
What is it with European countries having problems with punishing the young and obnoxiously aggressive German nation? And to such an extent that they after even greater atrocities by Germany on the contrary reward the crimes with Marshal money and NATO membership. US would never go so gently on its adversaries - just ask Japan - and half a century of other countries. And it's not that European countries can't punish out of clemency - just ask Russia. Fact is that no European country had any problem with Germany - or fascism - until the unruly child became a menace to England and France. It's unjustified to go on wailing about how Germany was harshly punished.
The statement the players should have voluntarily given DNA samples to police without having hired a lawyer is laughable. If you are being investigated for suspicion of rape, you don't volunteer DNA, you keep your mouth shut and hire a lawyer
I am wondering. Not that Google would do such a thing, but if they changed some information in these books that were scanned and put on line, who would know? Should we have a master bank of scanned books that is untouchable? I realize many books are available at the library to check but you have to know something is wrong in the first place in order to check. And there are, I'm sure especially in Ivy League colleges, books that are very rare and not readily available for checking.

Liar... There were three Heros, their names are David Evans, Collin Finnerty, and Reade Seligmann. They are the three young men who had their lives torn to pieces over a Lie perpetrated by a drug-addled, mentally deranged prostitute (and now murderer) Crystal Mangum. A corrupt prosecutor (Mike Nifong), and a corrupt media. All 3 of these innocent young men are Heros to have made it through this gauntlet of lies and attacks. And for this despicable man (Cohan) to suggest otherwise and even say "we'll never know what happened in that bathroom" is reprehensible! Wrong, Mr. Cohen! We all know what happened in that bathroom, and that was nothing!
I'm amazed how progressive England used to be, being able to auction off your own wife. Truly ground-breaking concept that breaks a lot of the oppressive stereotypes of the hugely matriarchal practice of marriage.
(03-21-22): Warning: If you try to read Realm, you will be reamed. The third volume of the Churchill trilogy, Defender of The Realm, runs over 1,000 pages long and recycles everything but Dizzy's Dean's batting average when he was in A ball. Gave up after page 170. Possible value as a research book, but that's about it. Paul Reid is Exhibit A as to why journalists are, in general, lousy writers encrusted with with bad writing habits and should have absolutely nothing to do with books aside from having their news reports summarized and quoted after competent writer and editors have boiled a thousand words down to ten.
Most Armenians in Turkey revolted against the Ottomans and were siding with the invading Russians at that time. They fought and died with them and they added the amount of Armenians who were fighting as Russian infantry on top of the Genocide accusation Second, Turkey has multiple times called for a joint investigation group consisting of Turkish and western historians to debunk this accusation once and for all. Armenia has refused multiple times for such an investigation group and has also refused to open its archives. The only thing Armenians are good at is spreading disinformation about Azerbaijan and Turkey on Twitter
