164 years ago, Julia Marcum’s family home was attacked by Confederate soldiers in Scott County, Tennessee.

“Aunt Julia,” as she was known, had to violently defend her family. After brandishing an axe, she was hit with a bayonet that caused the loss of one eye and one of her fingers. Her family was attacked for a second time by Confederate soldiers, and her father moved them to Kentucky to avoid more conflict. 

In 1885, Marcum was one of only a few women who successfully petitioned Congress for a war pension due to her injuries. She also was the only woman admitted as a full member of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veteran’s organization of Union soldiers in the Civil War.

Podcast Friday - Today in Music History 120525

The powerful conclusion to our Holocaust Education Month series focuses on resistance, justice, and lessons for today. This episode was produced and recorded by Mr Maillet, High School History and Psychology Teacher. He apologizes for any mispronunciation of German, Belarusian or Polish names. 

In part 3, we explore the remarkable stories of courage: the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, revolts in Sobibor and Auschwitz, the Bielski partisan brothers who saved over 1,200 Jews in the Belarusian forests, and Żegota; the only state-sponsored underground rescue organization in occupied Europe.

We follow liberation, the Cyprus detention camps where 52,000 Holocaust survivors were imprisoned by Britain (1946-1949), and witness the Nuremberg Trials. We learn how Raphael Lemkin coined the word "genocide" and how the 1948 UN Convention made it a crime under international law, but shockingly few Nazis were ever prosecuted.

We meet several of the 27,000 Righteous Among the Nations members including Chiune Sugihara, who wrote visas by hand for 29 days saving thousands of Jews, and Arie Van Mansum, who rescued hundreds in the Netherlands before emigrating to Ottawa.

We confront the painful truth: "Never Again" has failed; genocide has occurred in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda, and Darfur. We examine what the Allies knew and failed to do, rising contemporary antisemitism, and ask ourselves: what lessons must we carry forward?

Who Were the Baptists? Roger Williams and Religious Freedom

E576 |  The seventeenth century has often been characterized as a period of disorder and religious polemics in the Ottoman Empire. In this podcast, Nir Shafir takes us inside his new book, which argues that the polemics of the early modern Ottoman world were fueled in part by changes in communication, namely the rise of short pamphlets that circulated easily in handwritten copies. Pamphlets created a new arena largely independent from the institutional centers of knowledge production where people debated everyday questions of the time about what it meant to be Muslim. In exploring the world of Ottoman pamphlets, Shafir also offers a new introduction to the nature of Ottoman education, book production, and reading practices prior to the rise of print and modern state institutions.

Nir Shafir is Associate Professor of History at University of California, San Diego. His first book, The Order and Disorder of Communication: Pamphlets and Polemics in the Seventeenth-Century Ottoman Empire (Stanford, 2024), was awarded 2025 Book Prize from the Ottoman and Turkish Studies Association. Shafir is also a longtime contributor to the Ottoman History Podcast, formerly serving as editor-in-chief and appearing in over 50 episodes since 2013.

Maryam Patton is Assistant Professor of History at Wesleyan University. Her research interests span the cultural and intellectual history of the late medieval and early modern Ottoman Empire, the history and theories of time and temporality, and cross-cultural transmission in the Mediterranean world, among others. She received her PhD in History and Middle Eastern Studies from Harvard University and is preparing her first book on the Ottoman conception of time.

Ep. 128: LIVE REPORT from Pearl Harbor Commemorations in Hawaii; LIVE UPDATES from Candy Cane Lane; Meteorologist Scott Sistek on Storm History; and Frank Abe on Japanese American Incarceration

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel presents vintage audio – recorded by him by holding his Sanyo tape recorder near the radio speaker on the night of December 8, 1980. Former Beatle John Lennon had been assassinated in New York City.

In Seattle, on FM rock station KISW, legendary DJ Steve Slaton was on the air. Within minutes of the news reaching Seattle, he did what live and local radio used to do better than any other medium: he opened up the phone lines. In this long excerpt, we hear what amounts to a master class in how thoughtful, talented and local radio voices worked regularly to subtly build community, by connecting real live people in real-time to something bigger than themselves. Radio used to do this kind of thing every day of the week, and it was especially priceless during times of crisis or heartache.

As most people know in 2025, while it has some value, social media can often feel hollow and algorithmic. The humanity is often scrubbed away and re-packaged. In this tape - from a defiantly human era of radio and a particularly heart-wrenching night - we hear a real person, organic and unfiltered and serving a mass audience, and providing that "community glue” that radio, in the right hands, can still do so well. The sound quality is not great, and during pregnant pauses, music from another station can be heard. The content is surprisingly raw, with both Slaton and one of the callers uttering expletives – which have been bleeped out after the fact (those expletives, remarkably, went out over the airwaves on December 8, 1980).

CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via flagship station SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org. The radio station broadcasts from studios at historic Magnuson Park – located in the former Master-at-Arms’ quarters in the old Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.

Tickets will be available soon for The Object LOVE!, a very Valentine’s edition of our live taping of the podcast, happening February 7 at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, with quizzes, storytelling, and very special musical guest jeremy messersmith, all about the gods in (and out of) love!

It’s good to be the pope in the 1600s. But staying pope is not so easy, as the famous Barberini family finds out when one of their own takes up the tiara in 1623. As Rome fills up with their art, and dungeons fill up with their enemies, can they survive the forces of change threatening their worldview—and the forces of the occult threatening to kill the pope on Christmas Day?

You can read more about the art  commissioned by the Barberini family, including Pope Urban VIII, in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art: https://medium.com/minneapolis-institute-of-art/the-high-drama-of-baroque-art-ba22a4c6654

And of course you can see it all over Rome—in the Piazza Barberini, the Palazzo Barberini, etc. Look closely at St. Peter’s Basilica and you may see the curious Barberini family crest—a trio of bees—on fountains, frames, and even the altar. You can read about its symbolism here: https://theframeblog.com/2017/08/22/bees-in-the-frame-part-1-the-barberini-bee/
