Meetings With Mentors is a podcost hosted by Matthew Fishman, a junior at Horace Greeley High School, Chappaqua, New York, where we hear the untold stories behind the lives of inspiring scholars, scientists and changemakers. 

In this podcast episode, we dive deep into history, education, and resilience with a guest whose life has crossed paths with some of the most defining moments in American history. 

Dr. Billy Joe Evans, born in 1942, grew up in segregated Macon, Georgia at a time when educational and career opportunities for Black students were limited. Despite this, he went on to graduate from Morehouse College and receive a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and eventually became a full time professor at the University of Michigan. 

Dr. Evans is a chemist, educator, and mentor who has shaped generations through his work at the Univeristy of Michigan.

Meetings With Mentors: From Segregation to Success - The Story of Dr. Billy Joe Evans

The Trump administration’s civil rights policies dismantled affirmative action, revoked DEI initiatives, and rolled back segregation bans for federal contractors. Executive orders weakened protections against police bias, hate crimes, and discriminatory housing practices, leading to a 60% decline in DOJ civil rights cases. HUD suspended the AFFH rule, and the Education Department cut OCR staff, compromising fair housing enforcement and educational equity for marginalized communities.

Paper Title:
Batnāyya, Iraq: Local Conflicts, Conflict Resolution and Visions for Peace

Author: 
Dr. Esther Meininghaus

Summary:
In Batnāyya, Chaldean and Assyrian residents seek safety through exclusion of Arab families, deepening the town’s isolation. Political representation is obstructed by armed groups’ control of minority quotas. Residents envision peace through legal equality and secular governance, highlighting the need for inclusive, locally attuned interventions to counter structural marginalization.

Batnāyya, Iraq: Local Conflicts, Conflict Resolution and Visions for Peace

Rencontre avec le jeudi 23 mai 2025 au salon de lecture J.K.  avec Elvan Zabunyan autour de son livre publié aux éditions B42.

"Réunir les bouts du monde est une rencontre avec des oeuvres visuelles, littéraires, musicales et critiques, étatsuniennes et caribéennes, qui portent en elles la mémoire de l’esclavage transatlantique. L’histoire de l’esclavage ne s’est pas arrêtée aux abolitions, elle s’est poursuivie par les expressions propres à la ségrégation, au racisme, aux lynchages, à la prison, aux répressions sociales, culturelles, politiques, policières des XXe et XXIe siècles dans l’ensemble des pays en ayant fait l’expérience.

En invoquant des artistes, écrivain·es et intellectuel·les qui ont fondé leur pratique sur la rupture irréversible provoquée par quatre siècles de commerce triangulaire, Elvan Zabunyan questionne ce que cette histoire continue de produire aujourd’hui. La survivance des traces mémorielles de l’esclavage et leur transmission sont un moteur fédérateur des créations artistiques, faisant du dispersement et de la fragmentation une question éminemment esthétique et poétique. Les allers-retours dans l’espace et dans le temps, ainsi que l’omniprésence d’un passé qui éclaire le présent, sont pensés par l’autrice comme des étreintes traversées d’affects, faisant de l’histoire de l’art qu’elle écrit un récit situé, sensible et engagé."

Historienne de l’art contemporain, Elvan Zabunyan est professeure à l’université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne et critique d’art. Ses travaux portent depuis plus de vingt-cinq ans sur les problématiques raciales, post-coloniales et féministes dans l’art aux XXe puis XXIe siècles. Elle est l’autrice d’un ouvrage pionnier, Black is a color. Une histoire de l’art africain-américain (Dis Voir, 2004) ainsi que de la première monographie sur Theresa Hak Kyung Cha (Presses du réel, 2013). Elle a codirigé des ouvrages, écrit de nombreux articles pour des recueils collectifs, des catalogues d’exposition internationaux et des périodiques.

"Réunir les bouts du monde..." avec Elvan Zabunyan le 22 mai 2025

Affinity graduations face cancellation amid political pressure on DEI initiatives, yet students persist in celebrating Black excellence and diversity through independent, identity-centered ceremonies.

Black excellence triumphs despite DEI crackdown

In this episode, Jon and Arnie chat more about the Trump administration’s ongoing assault on Harvard University. We highlight some complexities to this dynamic. On the one hand, Harvard is the current bulwark against Trump’s authoritarian effort to control every aspect of every university in the country. For this reason, Harvard’s fight is everyone’s fight. On the other hand, Harvard enabled Trump’s escalating attacks on racial justice and free speech on campus. So even as Harvard deserves our support, it also warrants our continued criticism. We also discuss the Trump administration’s open desire to make integration illegal. Wondering where the idea comes from? Try Barry Goldwater, who in 1964 rehearsed the argument “the Constitution is color-blind . . . and so it is just as wrong to compel children to attend certain schools for the sake of so-called integration as for the sake of segregation.”

Socialdemokraternas tankar om bostadspolitik som en motor för att blanda befolkningen kommer inte att vara en framgångsfaktor – och de kan inte heller få igenom idéerna inom det rödgröna blocket, menar vår expertkommentator Kent Persson. Han är mer positiv när det gäller förslagen om nya bolåneregler och inte minst när det gäller den bostadspolitiska arenan i Almedalen. Han kommenterar också Peter Larssons varning till kommunerna, diskussionerna om trepartsöverenskommelsen, räntesänkningen, Boverkets nya försiktiga bostadsbyggprognos, forskningen om hur bostadspriserna påverkas av sprängningar – och Liberalernas nya partiledare. Programledare: Anna Bellman.

Veckans Aktuellt v25: S får inte igenom segregationsidéerna – bra bolåneförslag – dags för Almedalen

This week is a journey through time, a stark look at the enduring impact of a brutal system. We go beyond the sanitized history books and the simplified narratives, delving into the very DNA of a people and a nation forever altered by the transatlantic slave trade. From the vibrant, complex societies of pre-colonial Africa to the dehumanizing brutality of the Middle Passage, we trace the origins of a trauma that echoes through generations. We unpack the cruel paradox of the Emancipation Proclamation, a promise of freedom that failed to erase the shackles of systemic oppression.

We explore how this "peculiar institution" birthed a legacy of injustice that continues to manifest in our modern world. We connect the dots between Jim Crow laws and today's mass incarceration rates, between the economic disenfranchisement of the past and the wealth gap of the present. This is not just a story of suffering, but of resilience, of a people who have built, created, and thrived in the face of relentless adversity. This episode is an unfiltered conversation about the unpaid debt of history, a crucial exploration of how we can finally move forward by truly understanding where we've been.

Episode 97: Echoes of the Chains

A monthly conversation with BU Law Prof. Jonathan Feingold & WNHN host Arnie Arnesen about race and racism from a place of humility, commitment and curiosity.

In the heart of Paris's museum land, neighbouring the Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay, a few minutes from the Grand and Petit Palais, the Palais de Tokyo and the Musée d’art moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Musée du quai Branly has an exceptional location on the banks of the River Seine, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. The arts of Africa, Oceania, Asia, and the Americas now form part of the historical and artistic grand tour of the capital. The Musée du quai Branly is an innovative cultural institution - museum, educational and research centre, and public living space all in one. Built on one of the last available sites in the heart of Paris, the architectural design of this original project is the work of Jean Nouvel.
