Fall Fashion and 'Dopamine Dressing,' Jewish Museum 'Afterlives' Exhibit, 'Fauci' Documentary, A New Book on Fannie Lou Hamer

Fall fashion in New York historically has been dominated by one color...Black. But as Emilia Petrarca, Fashion News Writer for The Cut, writes, the pandemic may have changed that. Petrarca joins us to talk about her recent article about "Dopamine Dressing." Professor Carolyn Mair PhD, author of The Psychology of Fashion also joins, plus we take calls from listeners on what their wardrobes are looking like this Fall season.   A new exhibit at the Jewish Museum focuses on art stolen during World War II, and the process of recovery. The exhibit features looted works by artists such as Pierre Bonnard, Marc Chagall, Paul Cézanne, Gustave Courbet, Paul Klee, Franz Marc, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, and Camille Pissarro, alongside new commissions. Curators Darsie Alexander and Sam Sackeroff join us to discuss the exhibit, "Afterlives: Recovering the Lost Stories of Looted Art." The exhibit runs at the Jewish Museum through January 9, 2022.   For nearly two years, Dr. Anthony Fauci has been the leading voice in the fight against the Coronavirus pandemic. A new documentary, "Fauci", takes us behind the scenes of how his work at the forefront of infectious diseases---both in the 90’s with AIDS and now—have deeply affected both his professional and personal life. Filmmakers John Hoffman and Janet Tobias join to discuss.   The civil and voting rights leader Fannie Lou Hamer was born October 6, 1917. In a new book, Dr. Keisha N. Blain, Associate Professor of History at the University of Pittsburgh, captures Hamer’s life and legacy up to our current moment. Blain joins us to discuss the book, Until I Am Free: Fannie Lou Hamer’s Enduring Message to America.
