2022-04-041h 21Getting CommonThe Business Impact on Human RightsThe failure of American companies to divest fully from Russia has highlighted the role corporations can play in facilitating human rights abuses when seeking to maximize profits globally. Professor Marissa Jackson Sow and Professor Erika George, author of Incorporating Rights: Strategies to Advance Corporate Accountability will discuss existing and emerging advocacy strategies that could conceivably close a global governance gap that puts human rights at risk and places commercial actors at risk of becoming complicit in human rights abuses when conducting business in emerging market economies and complex environments.
2022-03-2300 minGetting CommonBlack Women Voters as PropertyIn American politics the Black woman voter is both mule and canary. Black women vote at higher rates than most demographics, and overwhelmingly and consistently vote for Democratic candidates—not because there is anything to gain but because doing so is necessary for the survival of the republic. Yet, three years after commentators declared 2018 to be the year Black women saved the Democratic Party, Black women still enjoy very little negotiating power at the polls. Thus, while Black women voters carry the burden of saving the world, their diminished negotiating power signals the end of democracy and the slow creep to...

Are you there God? It's us, the Book B's.Episode 7: Flowers in the AtticIn this episode we are stepping into V.C. Andrews' notorious novel "Flowers in the Attic" and its sequel "Petals on the Wind". It's an equally sexy and skeevy episode in which we discuss the Gothic tradition, the incest scale, and the puberty sweats. With that said, this is an official content note (CN) that we discuss rape and incest in this episode so tread lightly if these are sensitive subjects for you. We recommend, if possible, that you listen to this episode with your sibling.
