Everything Everywhere Daily - The Origins of Rock and Roll


In the early 1950s, a new type of music burst forth, which had its roots in blues, gospel, country, and swing. 

This new music took the world by storm and was as controversial as it was successful. 

This music has spawned countless variations, some of which are so different that it is hard to see how it evolved.

Learn more about the origins of rock and roll and how it came to dominate music on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and Andrew S. Curran, “Who’s Black and Why?: A Hidden Chapter from the Eighteenth-Century Invention of Race” (Harvard UP, 2022)

Who's Black and Why?: A Hidden Chapter from the Eighteenth-Century Invention of Race (Harvard University Press, 2022) is the first translation and publication of sixteen submissions to the notorious eighteenth-century Bordeaux essay contest on the cause of black skin. In 1739 Bordeaux's Royal Academy of Sciences announced a contest for the best essay on the sources of "blackness." The authors ranged from naturalists to physicians, theologians to amateur savants. Documented on each page are European ideas about who is Black and why. 

Looming behind these essays is the fact that some four million Africans had been kidnapped and shipped across the Atlantic by the time the contest was announced. The essays themselves represent a broad range of opinions. Some affirm that Africans had fallen from God's grace; others that blackness had resulted from a brutal climate; still others emphasized the anatomical specificity of Africans. All the submissions nonetheless circulate around a common theme: the search for a scientific understanding of the new concept of race. More importantly, they provide an indispensable record of the Enlightenment-era thinking that normalized the sale and enslavement of Black human beings. Translated into English and accompanied by a detailed introduction and headnotes written by Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and Andrew Curran, each essay included in this volume lays bare the origins of anti-Black racism and colorism in the West.

Andrew S. Curran is the William Armstrong Professor of the Humanities at Wesleyan University.

Henry Louis Gates, Jr is the Alphonse Fletcher University Professor and Director of the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research at Harvard University.

What A Day - (Don’t) Bank On It

Following the sudden collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, the federal government has taken drastic action to protect the financial system, and to make the bank's depositors whole. Business and tech journalist Jo Ling Kent joins us to discuss the backlash from both sides of the political aisle about the intervention — and whether or not it was technically a “bailout.”

And in headlines: Donald Trump’s one-time lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen testified before a New York grand jury investigating the former president, the Biden administration approved a controversial oil drilling project on Alaska's Northern Slope, and a 5,000 mile-wide blob of seaweed is slowly making its way toward Florida’s gulf coast.

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | ‘Bail Out Rich People’: Economist Shares What to Know About Biden Administration’s Silicon Valley Bank Action

The “rich people” with money in Silicon Valley Bank are the real winners in President Joe Biden's handling of the California-based bank’s collapse, economist Peter St Onge says. 


After the fall of Silicon Valley Bank over the weekend, the Biden administration announced that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. will cover all depositors' money there.


Normally, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is responsible for covering deposits up to $250,000, ensuring that most small businesses and individuals are financially protected from a collapse. But in this case, the FDIC is going far beyond that $250,000 cap to cover every deposit in Silicon Valley Bank, regardless of the amount. 


“If the administration gets away with this, then we are going to start moving into a world where bankers, where Wall Street, feels like they can take any risk they like, because this is all going to get bailed out because you've got these human shields,” St Onge, a research fellow in economics at The Heritage Foundation, says. (The Daily Signal is Heritage's multimedia news organization.) 


Ultimately, the federal government’s actions to protect Silicon Valley depositors probably will result in higher inflation, St Onge says. “I think we're very likely to see a lot more inflation,” he says.

St. Onge joins this episode of “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss how Silicon Valley Bank collapsed and what Biden’s actions mean for the nation's economy.

What Next | Daily News and Analysis - How Anti-Trans Legislation Cost Rural South Dakota a Doctor

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has made anti-trans legislation a trademark of her term, but singling out trans people—and those who provide them medical care—comes at a cost to the state and its residents. It left the tiny rural town of Webster with only one physician.
