Can't unknow what I now know.
<p>My guest Eamonn is a 38 yr old male from mixed heritage. His father is white European and his mother is from Far East Asia - but he's never spent a significant amount of time in either of their countries as his dad's work kept the family in the Middle East. He moved back to the UK for University and after a brief period living back in Qatar with his parents, decided to move to the UK full-time. This move took him to Scotland and the oil & gas industry. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Eamonn and I talk about unwritten guy codes, biases that can't be ignored, the rigid nature of careers and the line of an easy life that has been sold to us.</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_meritocracy#:~:text=Myth%20of%20meritocracy%20is%20a,societies%20because%20of%20inherent%20contradictions." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Myth of Meritocracy</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/17/opinion/sarah-everard-uk-police.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Sarah Everard and the U.K.'s Deadly Violence Against Women (NYT article)</a></p>Music by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/dayfox-29184718/?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=122592">DayFox</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com/music//?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=122592">Pixabay</a> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>

Where can I go from here.
<p>My guest on this episode describes herself as a daughter of the Arab Spring, relentlessly holding on to her sense of idealism. A recent European refugee, who is currently licking wounds, while routinely pointing out the political and social pollution caused by late capitalism to a small circle of friends and antagonising people to join post-George-Fluid global racial awakening. </p> <p><br></p> <p>My guest talks to me about existing on various points along the sympathy spectrum, the North Atlantic capitalist empire, our roles in nation state building and disenchantment with the work within the humanitarian sector. But what mostly shows through is how tiring it is to yo-yo between gratitude and feeling as though nothing is going the way it should. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Note: some listeners may find the language offensive.</p> <p><a href="https://www.hrw.org/news/2020/07/31/treaty-banning-cluster-munitions-turns-10-without-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Human Rights Watch article on Cluster Munitions</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.clusterconvention.org/states-parties/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Convention on Cluster Munitions</a></p> <p><br></p>Music by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/lesfm-22579021/?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=110624">Lesfm</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com/music//?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=110624">Pixabay</a>

My idealism is not the problem here.
<p>Ruth holds a Masters in Fine Arts for Creative Writing from the Vermont College of Fine Arts and is a registered nurse with two decades of experience in perinatal nursing. She is "mostly" from Chicago, but has lived in many places including Yemen, Kazakhstan and nine states in the U.S.A. She writes personal lyrical contemplative essays about birth, war and the natural world. She is a lover of aimless road trips, being a minority while aware of her own privilege in this role, cats and cozy quiet things of life like tea.</p> <p><br></p> <p>**Note: in relation to those Alaskan Native tribes remaining - there are many tribes who were in fact moved off their lands such as tribes in the Aleutian chain of islands during WW@ who were displaced throughout Alaska to terrible living conditions to allow for military installations in their villages. Some people returned after the war, but many did not. You can find out more by visiting the State of Alaska website - https://alaska.gov/kids/learn/nativeculture.htm </p> <p><br></p> <p>Ruth talks to me about being thrown into the real world, the exhaustion within patriarchal healthcare and unpicking the reality of white social colonisation. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.wob.com/en-gb/books/l-m-montgomery/blue-castle/9781843913948?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=18244219672&cq_con=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIs8Ka256H_wIVB-vtCh0yXQTREAQYAiABEgIiR_D_BwE#GOR004902697" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Blue Castle - L.M.
