AI is talking about my dissertation, chile...

Quanice uploaded her doctoral dissertation into NotebookLM by Google which created a podcast episode about her research! Listen to the NPR AI bots chat it up, chile. AI is definitely not going anywhere!... I listened to this all while drinking wine.

Abstract: This dissertation investigated the strategies and obstacles that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) arts advocates and lobbyists face as they navigate the predominantly white arts advocacy space. BIPOC individuals continue to be underrepresented in the arts and cultural sectors, despite the increasing attention paid to the BIPOC movement in the wake of George Floyd's murder in 2020. This study examined the convergence of arts advocacy, BIPOC experiences, and lobbying by investigating the structural obstacles that sustain inequalities and marginalization. This study employed qualitative methodologies to examine the strategies employed by BIPOC advocates to amplify their voices, challenge systemic biases, and advocate for social change within the arts sector. The study adopted a communitarian lens rooted in Black Feminist Theory, highlighting the importance of community members working together to promote inclusivity and fair representation in cultural policy. The findings enhanced the existing body of knowledge on BIPOC arts advocates and offer valuable insights into effective techniques for fostering diversity and inclusion in the arts. This research examined the opportunities and problems encountered by BIPOC arts advocates, emphasizing the capacity of arts advocacy and lobbying to promote social reform and cultivate a more inclusive cultural environment.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
