🗂️ History isn't just what institutions preserve. It's also what communities save. Too often, queer history only survives through personal collections, word of mouth, and people who recognize its value when no one else does. On the Future Knowledge podcast special series #VanishingCulture, Brooke Palmieri explores the community effort...

U.N. official wants to decolonize AI and train new models with third-world "systems of knowledge" Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed of Nigeria: "Colonial conquest brought catastrophe and genocide, in many cases on a continental scale. Entire communities were destroyed. Indigenous people were driven far from their lands. The assault was also on memory itself. Languages were suppressed. Knowledge gained through millennia of civilization, including in the Mayan codices, was deliberately put to the flame. Many traditions rooted in land and community and memory were lost." "These are living traditions carrying a wisdom that can help the region shape technological change in its own image towards its own vision of a good life, to pursue development on its own terms. And that starts with ensuring the people of this region can see themselves in the technology. More than 800 indigenous peoples live here, representing 60 million people. Many of their languages and systems of knowledge are sustained through oral traditions when AI systems are trained largely on written material that has been gathered elsewhere. That knowledge can be distorted or made invisible. Right now, Chile's National Center for Artificial Intelligence and 30 partner institutions are developing a LatAm GPT, an open-source model trained on regional data. Its first version is in Spanish and Portuguese, but researchers are also developing tools for other languages -- with the consent of the indigenous communities concerned. And that is what an inclusive reset can look like. Technology built with a fuller account of the people that it is meant to serve."

Every person living in a western nation needs to listen to every word of this Katherine Berbalsingh went to the University of Oxford and is Headmaster at Michaela Community School in London, UK She PERFECTLY explains the mass indoctrination into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, and of hating White People I will write only some of this out because it’s very important, however you should listen to it so you can hear the passion: “The culture shift comes from what children learn at school and online. Ask any young person what history they learned at school, and they’ll tell you, Hitler. Ask them what else? Slavery. Ask them what else? American civil rights. In fact, what little they know of history will be all about Black and brown people fighting for equality against the white man, women fighting men for the vote, gay and trans people fighting for various rights. Our young people have been taught that history is simply one long story about various groups struggling under the oppressive dead white man. — History is taught through an oppressor lens. The triangular slave trade, white men held the power. What about Britain ending the slave trade? More than a quick mention, if at all? Mm, no. What of the Arab slave trade that lasted 3 times as long as the triangular slave trade? Mm, no. Okay, so GCSE history in Britain is often taught as migration through time, so the idea that Britain has always been a land of immigrants is embedded in our children’s heads. Most schools would prefer to concentrate learning about the tiny number of Black people who existed in Tudor England over a thorough analysis of England’s break from Rome. — Not to mention weeks on King Mansa Musa of Mali because he was a Black Muslim. His bearing on British institutions, laws, and faith is nonexistent. And the fact that he is said to have been the richest man in history, thanks in part to his massive slave-owning society, is a detail somehow that teachers rarely ever teach. But it isn’t just our schools. It’s our general culture too. Take your kids to a museum or an art gallery in any Western country, and you’ll find the same narrative. As an example, when learning about aviation in London’s Science Museum and the extraordinary feat that is man making massive machines move in the sky, a write-up on the wall explains that women and Black people were historically barred from aviation schools and the military. Similarly, James Watt, the man who invented the steam engine and is considered the founder of the Industrial Revolution, has a write-up on the wall explaining that his early career involved slave trafficking, with a bonus analysis of the whole of Britain’s complicity in the slave trade. They flatten the entire human story and all of its complexities into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, leaving young people unable to see the world in any other terms.” We have to end the mass indoctrination

THIS IS MODERN DAY SLAVERY Watch Episode 82: When most people hear the word “slavery,” they think of something from history. But according to anti-trafficking advocate Jacquelyn Aluotto, slavery is alive and thriving today. Jackie describes the horrific reality many trafficking victims face: being sexually exploited repeatedly, forced to meet financial quotas for their traffickers, controlled in every aspect of their lives, and stripped of even the most basic freedoms. She explains how victims are often told when they can eat, where they can go, and what they can do—living under constant coercion and abuse. The conversation also highlights the staggering scale of the crisis, with human trafficking generating an estimated $526 billion globally. Jackie challenges viewers to recognize the reality behind the statistics and understand that modern-day slavery is happening in communities across the world. In this episode of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Jackie shares firsthand insights from decades of investigating and combating child exploitation. The conversation explores how trafficking networks operate, the vulnerabilities within foster care systems, the role of technology in facilitating abuse, and why stronger accountability is needed across institutions. Together, Lara and Jackie examine the realities behind modern-day slavery and discuss practical steps communities can take to protect children and support survivors.
