Obituary: Singer Nancy Wilson, 81, has died. She was most closely associated with jazz:
She was described as a consummate entertainer. She made frequent television appearances beginning in the 1960s. She won an Emmy for her series “The Nancy Wilson Show” (1974 – 1975). She also hosted NPR Music’s “Jazz Profiles” documentary series from 1996 through 2005, for which she won a Peabody Award in 2002. She won three Grammys for albums during her career, “How Glad I Am” (1965), “R.S.V.P. (Rare Songs, Very Personal)” (2005), and “Turned to Blue” (2007).

An excellent interview with noted second-wave feminist Phyllis Chesler can be found here. She talks at length how feminism went haywire after the 1970s.
I read many of her books, beginning with 1972's Women and Madness.

No surprise the alt.right is tapping the anti-abortion crowd for new supporters. A lot of the anti-abortion people are worried about the white birthrate declining.
