Although accounts of how race (and class) punctuated the elimination of African American midwives are well documented,6 this article further explores how downplaying the racial privilege of white midwives, medical personnel, and other figures in African American midwives' narratives has problematic implications for a contemporary midwifery movement that prides itself on inclusivity and its benefit to all women. INFLUENCES ON THE CONTEMPORARY MOVEMENT FOR MIDWIVES The continued emphasis on the narrative accounts of African American midwives within the history of not only midwifery in the United States but also African American culture and life opens up possibilities for important discussions of race and the effects of a legacy of racism that still affects contemporary midwives in thei...

In this paper we discuss the meaning of newness in research in the times when new paradigms of science are emerging and the sciences have become more and more fragmentary. In the positivistic and monolithic era of social science, before Kuhn and year 1966, methodologies and methods interpreting newness were simpler. In this paper it is argued the newness is more and more in the text itself, and that the dynamics of texts comes from interrelations between the subject of the text (the researcher self) and the object of it (the research audience). Scientific knowledge becomes new when it is substantiated and connected to the prior one Writing the research reports is political by nature but so is also its reading. While citation index makes researchers powerful, in gaining decisions whom to...

Speaking over beers at Durham's Federal bar last Thursday, [Guttman] and [Madeleine Sackler] say they wanted to pursue the issue beyond the often sterile debates they encountered in their academic setting. "People throw these catch phrases around, like 'You can't fight for peace,'" says Sackler, a slender woman who sports a pierced eyebrow. "In America, we're so far removed from conflict. The majority of Americans are not affected, but it's different in Israel.
Guttman and Sackler are breaking some academic ground with this film. "It's the first time Duke has accepted a non-text-based document as an honors thesis," Guttman says. Indeed, Guttman agrees, Mechina might become the most widely "read" undergraduate honors thesis of all time.
Guttman and Sackler are keenly aware of how changi...

[...] this culinary collective or relationship of plurality in planning, preparing, and presenting meals reinforced the complex nature of food and the ways in which the quotidian language of cooking performs as a crucial mode of communicating identities. According to Durodoye and Coker, this is most likely due to the racial politics in the United States that views people of African descent as a monolithic group.2 Arguing against the myth of homogeneity among and between people of the African diaspora, this article recaptures experiences that took place during the first five to seven years of my relationship with my husband (who today not only cooks for himself but also for our family), in order to consider some of the complexities that inhere in the homes of those living together acros...
