D Listers of History: Recent Episodes
Fayge and Isa
Welcome to D Listers of History, a podcast about interesting people you probably didn't learn about in school.
Take it from someone who actually paid attention in history class, most teachers just talk about the same couple of guys who always get top billing. This show isn't for your Benjamin Franklins and Otto Von Bismarks. This is the show for the other person, just out there doing their best. Come hang out with us and history's footnotes, we may not be famous but we are having fun.
Keep up with us here or at www.DListersofHistory.com; once this minor crisis passes, lots of fun things are coming. Thank you so much!
Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
If you are in the United States, there is a good chance that you will suffer from a heat wave this summer. Cool down with Fayge and dive into the Little Ice Age and its many impacts on Europe. It will involve fashion, politics, and a tiny bit of science, the best combination.

Dive into the surprisingly dramatic story of the invention of the sewing machine, if anyone can decide who did it first anyway. This story has it all: revolutions, bonfires, poorly managed paperwork, patent theft... and it all relates to Artificial Intelligence (AI), no, really.

Former President Trump is the first President to be incited in a criminal court, but he is far from the first President to break the law.
There is one story of another President ending up on the wrong side of the law, but how it was handled and remembered is very different.

"Gay" and "Republican" might seem like identities that don't really go together but to the Log Cabin Republicans, that is exactly who they are.
The origins of the Log Cabin Republicans, though, is about as far from what you are probably imagining as you can get.
Reverend Raymond Broshears worked tirelessly for the rights of LGBTQ+, the elderly and sex workers in San Francisco. He also was the progenitor of the Log Cabin Republicans. Buckle up because this one is a wild ride.
A huge thank you to Sam from Labor Jawn for joining me last minute! You can check them out where ever you get your podcasts.

There is quite a bit of disagreement regarding how to handle the results of our modern opioid epidemic. In Philadelphia, Mayor Cherelle Parker, amidst heavy criticism, "cleaned up" one of the largest encampments where people lived and used out in the open.
This is not Philadelphia's first brush with a neighborhood overwhelmed by addiction. In 1963, 31 people mysteriously died all over Philadelphia's Skid Row neighborhood. You might find what and who was at fault surprising.

The Chevalier d'Eon is one of those historical figures who pop up now and again, mostly because no one knows what to do with them. Were they a trans woman? A man masquerading as a woman for political reasons? Outside of salacious curiosity about their sex and gender, do they actually matter?
This week, Fayge and Mazal dive into d'Eon's life to explore how we talk about queer historical figures respectfully.
D'Eon was also just a wild individual outside of any questions of gender.
Further Reading:
The Chevalier d'Eon and His Worlds—This book is a compilation of papers by experts in various fields, each trying to untangle d'Eon's story in their own way. Some of these papers are rather old and, as such, contain outdated language for transgender people.
There are a few other books on d'Eon, but I found the variety of opinions helpful in better understanding the debates surrounding them.

“I hold this slow, and daily, tampering with the mysteries of the brain to be immeasurably worse than any torture of the body.” Charles Dickens, 1842
Eastern State Penitentiary dominates Fairmount Ave in Philadelphia. The physical structure is intimidating, but the stories of the horrors that happened there are even more terrifying. Interestingly, though, the people who founded Eastern State and the man who designed it, John Haviland, thought they were creating a more humane and effective prison.
They were wrong. This week, Mazal and Fayge look at the life and career of the architect John Haviland, the legacy of his most famous structure, and the psychological impacts of solitary confinement.

Have you ever wondered why that girl you haven't spoken to since high school ~really~ wants to sell you essential oils/leggings/makeup/nail wraps/etc? One of the men to blame is David McConnell, the founder of the company now known as Avon. Fayge and Mazal dive into Avon's history, and how we got to that weird social media message, you don't know how to respond to.

Clip Transcription:
Although the stimulating memories of that happy time of triumph are forever marred and embittered for us by the shameful fact that when victory was won, be it remembered- chiefly by the indomitable spirit and ungrudging sacrifices of our own incomparable soldiers- we turned our backs upon our associates and refused to bear any responsible part in the administration of peace, or the firm and permanent establishment of the results of the war- won at so terrible a cost of life and treasure-

On today's episode, author Jack Maher discusses his novel "Poppy: A Novel About A Colorful Colorado Life" and the titular "Poppy," Eric Douglas.
Fayge and Mazal explore the incredible life of the man who, as curator for the Denver Art Museum, worked tirelessly to teach White America about and to love Native American art. His work still resonates today as the United States continues to grapple with its often bloody past with Indigenous Nations.
"Hold on to what is good, Even if it's a handful of earth. Hold on to what you believe, Even if it's a tree that stands by itself. Hold on to what you must do, Even if it's a long way from here. Hold on to your life, Even if it's easier to let go. Hold on to my hand, Even if someday I'll be gone away from you."
- Crowfoot, Blackfoot warrior and orator 1830 - 1890

CN: This episode discusses abortion, infant death, IVF, and modern far-right white supremacy
In Colonial America, abortion of early pregnancies was not only legal but was viewed as a typical medical procedure.
February 2023, the State of Alabama ruled that frozen embryos have the same rights as a child after birth.
How did we end up here?

When we sit down to drink a relaxing cup of tea, most of us aren't thinking too much about the journey it took to get into our cups. Nicole Wilson, though, is a tea blogger and educator so knowing all the ins and outs of tea is kind of her thing.
Nicole and I talk about Robert Fortune, the man who stole tea from China, launching the machine that would become British tea production.
Check out Nicole's blog at www.teaformeplease.com
(I think I said it wrong in the episode, the above is the correct link)

There are a lot of ways to approach bigotry. Some call it out loudly, others encourage conversation, and then there is Uriah Levy. Levy tackled antisemitism in the US Navy head on through law, public opinion and of course, a good slap across the face. Fayge and actor Robert Neumark Jones discuss Levy's life and what we can learn from his legacy.
