Crisis in PerceptionLies My Teacher Told Me About Christopher Columbus — How Textbooks Manufacture MythsWelcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.This episode explores Lies My Teacher Told Me About Christopher Columbus: What Your History Books Got Wrong by James W. Loewen as a systems-level analysis of how textbook history shapes belief, civic memory, and institutional legitimacy.By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or isolated mistakes, the episode shows why heroification persists — and how sanitized history connects to larger political, cultural, and educational systems.📺 Watch on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/DDoyC76LPK0❤️ Support on Patreon:👉 https://www.pat...

Auf ein Glas…Christopher Loewen: Das Feingespür für gute WeinbergspflegeUnterwegs an der Mosel, im Oktober zwar – aber golden war der nicht beim Besuch von sechs Moselwinzern, die in den 20 steilen bis sehr steilen Lagen der Ritsch begütert sind. Aber auch im Nieselnebel hinterließ die Lage Eindruck! Tags drauf dann zu Gast bei Christopher Loewen im Weingut Carl Loewen. Das Gespräch startet in der Geschichte (wie so oft an der Mosel: Napoleon ließ den kirchlichen Besitz auflösen) und führt über Christophers Vater Karl Josef und dessen Idee, alte Weinberge mit neuem Leben zu füllen, schnell zu all den Themen rund um Spitzenrieslinge von der Mosel. Es...

Skurnik UnfilteredChristopher Loewen"Working in these vineyards makes me think a lot because you really want to treat them right.

BookOdysseyLies My Teacher Told Me About Christophe by James W LoewenThe provided text, an excerpt from James W. Loewen’s Lies My Teacher Told Me, offers a sweeping critique of American high school history textbooks, arguing that they propagate a "feel-good" national narrative that is often inaccurate, incomplete, and Eurocentric. Loewen contends that textbooks engage in "heroification," simplifying complex figures like Woodrow Wilson and Christopher Columbus by omitting their flaws—such as Wilson's racism and colonialism, or Columbus’s brutal treatment of Indigenous peoples—and by perpetuating historical myths, like the flat-earth belief in 1492. Furthermore, the analysis asserts that these books fail students by ignoring controversial aspects of U.S. histo...

Good on PaperPoliticians Think Voters Are Dumb. Are They Right?What do politicians really think of their voters? A new study looking at 11 different democracies finds that politicians hold an unflattering view of their constituents, while voters view themselves as thoughtful, policy-oriented decision makers. The political scientist Jack Lucas explains why politicians think voters are dumb and why they might be wrong.

First Name Basis Podcast3 Things Children Need to Know About SlaveryAs a Black bi-racial person, learning about slavery growing up was so hard for me for so many reasons — it was traumatizing and heartbreaking to think about the conditions my ancestors lived through, it felt like a burden to be the only Black person in my class and having everyone look to me, and there were so many things that just didn't make sense to me about it, but asking those questions was the last thing I wanted to do. With Juneteenth coming up this weekend, I've been thinking about slavery and things I wish I w...

Wonders of the WorldThe Bioluminescent Bay of Puerto Mosquito and the Columbian ExchangeOfficially, this episode is on the amazing glowing algae living in the waters of three of Puerto Rico's bays, most notably Puerto Mosquito on Vieques, one of Puerto Rico's smaller islands. Listener and boriqueño native Roberto Cancel describes swimming in the bay on a dark night, surrounded by glowing blue waters. But most of the episode is devoted to perhaps the most important event in world history: 1493. Not 1492, but 1493. That's the year when Christopher Columbus returned to the Americas, not as an explorer, but as a conqueror. We discuss (and really only scratch the s...
