  Culture and Society - How...

  Culture and society are deeply interconnected, shaping human behavior, beliefs, and institutions. Culture encompasses the shared practices, values, symbols, and artifacts that define a group of people, while society refers to the structured interactions and relationships within a community or nation. Culture provides the foundation for social norms, influencing everything from language and customs to laws and moral expectations. At the same time, society determines how culture is transmitted, adapted, and reinforced through institutions such as family, education, and government. 
  One of the key aspects of culture is its learned nature. Unlike biological traits, cultural knowledge is passed down through generations via socialization. From early childhood, individuals absorb cultural norms through interactions with family, peers, and media. These shared understandings create a sense of belonging and cohesion within a group. However, culture is not static; it evolves over time as societies encounter new ideas, technologies, and challenges. The dynamic nature of culture ensures that it remains relevant to the needs and values of the people who uphold it.

  The Silver Women - How Black...

  In The Silver Women, Joan Flores-Villalobos argues that Black West Indian women made the Panama Canal construction possible by providing the indispensable everyday labor of social reproduction. West Indian women built a provisioning economy that fed, housed, and cared for the segregated Black West Indian labor force, in effect subsidizing the construction effort and the racial calculus that separated pay in silver for Black workers and gold for white Americans. But while also subject to racial discrimination and segregation, West Indian women mostly worked outside the umbrella of US canal authorities. They did not hold contracts, had little access to official services and wages, and received pay in both silver and gold. From this position, they found ways to skirt, and at times subvert, the legal, moral, and economic parameters imperial authorities sought to impose on the migrant workforce. West Indian women developed important strategies of claims-making, kinship, community building, and market adaptation that helped them navigate the contradictions and violence of the US empire. These strategies of social reproduction nurtured further West Indian migrations, linking Panama to places like Harlem and Santiago de Cuba. The Silver Women is thus a history of Black women's labor of social reproduction as integral to US imperial infrastructure, the global Caribbean diaspora, and women's own survival.

  “Air raid warning, air raid warning. Shut your doors and windows.” 
  The Rediffusion blared out in English and then in Maltese, at 6:55am on the morning of 11 June 1940. 
  This was the first of many times we would hear that warning. The day our lives changed. 
  Margaret Staples was nine years old at the beginning of 1939 when her father was posted to the British colony of Malta with the Royal Engineers. Swimming every day, with blue skies and balmy weather; Margaret and her siblings thought they were in paradise. 
  Everything changed when the Second World War broke out. Hitler wanted to take control of Malta for its strategic position, right in the middle of the Mediterranean. To this end, the Axis powers dropped more bombs on this tiny island than anywhere else on the planet. When that didn’t work, they decided to sink all the supply ships going to the island and force capitulation through starvation. 
  This is Margaret’s story of survival, told by her daughter Linda.
