Uncommon Sense (The Sociological Review Podcast) Season 4, Episode 4: Free Speech, with Aaron Winter
No full textThe Sociological Review Podcast: Uncommon Sense Free Speech, with Aaron Winter Aaron Winter, Rosie Hancock and Alexis Hieu Truong 27th June 2025 About How is the notion of “free speech” abused and misunderstood? What’s wrong with “debate me” culture – and with the value placed on appearing to be “controversial”? And what happens when people who are actually pretty powerful claim they “can’t say anything anymore”? Sociologist Aaron Winter, an expert on racism and the far right, joins Uncommon Sense to discuss all this and more. Showing what sociology has to offer to discussions of “freedom” often found in politics, Aaron describes how “free speech” has been invoked through the decades in North America and Europe, including in the victimisation narratives found in far-right discourse today. Plus, we reflect on the importance of no-platforming, and the need for critical thought when we hear that certain ideas are simply the “voice of the people”. Featuring discussion of Aaron’s work with Aurelien Mondon on “Reactionary Democracy”. Also: celebration of influential American sociologist Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, author of “Racism without Racists”, and the UK band The Specials

Slavic Studies and Slavic Librarianship in the United States: A Post-Cold War Perspective (Excerpts)
No full textThis article reprints excerpts from Aaron Trehub’s piece about the relationship between Slavic studies and Slavic librarianship in the United States in the immediate aftermath of the end of the Cold War. The author, who at the time was Slavic librarian and bibliographer (and former Soviet affairs analyst), notes that through a curious quirk of history, the collapse of communism coincided with the birth of a powerful new communications medium (the World Wide Web). Together, these geopolitical and technological developments have fundamentally changed librarianship in general and Slavic librarianship in particular. Trehub’s discussion of the various day-to-day difficulties experienced by Slavic librarians in the post-Cold War period pays special attention to the challenges that new information technologies create for patrons, as well as the instructional burden that this places on librarians. He suggests that excessive reliance on the Web may erode the capacity to reason critically, but admits that the longterm effects of digitization on education and research are unclear. In effect, Trehub’s essay provides the historical background for reevaluating what competencies constitute Slavic information literacy in the twenty-first century.PublishedYe
Aaron McDuffie Moore Book Review
No full textAaron McDuffie Moore, a notable contributor to African American medical history in North Carolina, intended to advance the condition of African Americans living in the area of Durham, North Carolina. In the book, Aaron McDuffie Moore: An African-American Physician, Educator, and Founder of Durham’s Black Wall Street, author Blake Hill-Saya details specific accomplishments of Dr. Aaron McDuffie Moore during his lifetime, including his enrollment at Shaw University’s Leonard Medical School in 1885 and Dr. Moore’s collaboration with John Merrick and C.C. Spaulding to form the Old North State Medical Society in 1887. Perhaps one of the more interesting accomplishments of Dr. Aaron Moore to be detailed in the book was his use of a “physician’s visiting book” to document visits with patients and recording medical expenses. Besides the rich narrative outlined in the pages of the book, the author includes a Dr. Moore family tree, several photographs/maps, a chronology of notable events in Dr. Moore’s life, and an extensive bibliography of both primary and secondary sources
