2024 USHERED IN TWO FIRSTS FOR MILITARY WOMEN.
WE’RE ALL CELEBRATING.
American women kicked off 2024 with two milestones that flipped the script on the way society keeps judging, classifying and relating to us. The first happened in Annapolis, Maryland, where Vice Admiral Yvette Davids − a mother of twin boys with an Audrey Hepburn vibe − became the first woman to
lead the 178-year-old U.S. Naval Academy. Then, Air Force 2nd Lieutenant Madison Marsh became the newest Miss America, the first-active duty military officer to win the pageant. Beauty can have brains and brawn; brains and brawn can be beautiful. Take that, society.
Marsh’s crown matters more when it comes to her job in the Air Force. She busts the myth that women who do the jobs that used to be held only by men have to look and act like them. This is important at the Naval Academy, where some graduates watched Davids show compassion, a vivacious personality
and maternal pride as her kids cheered her on in a room full of military brass. “It was surreal,” said Sharon Hanley Disher, 65, one of the first women to graduate from the academy in 1980. She was at the ceremony promoting Davids, who called out the class of pioneers twice during her speech in Annapolis.
She couldn’t stop thinking about her first evening at the academy, back in 1976. “Miss Hanley, I don’t like women in my school,” an upperclassman told her, she recalled, pointing his finger in her face. “I don’t want women in my school. It will be my mission to make sure you’re long gone before I graduate.” She
graduated, and Davids, who graduated in 1989, thanked her and others for helping pave the way.
“A ship in port is safe, but that’s not what ships are built for,” said Davids in her welcome address, quoting the words of Admiral Grace Hopper. She will face doubt and challenges to her leadership. But besides proving that she can lead, she will be confronted with the opportunity to address women’s experience as
minorities in a school where they are just 28 percent of the student population.
Elizabeth Rowe, who was also in the class of 1980 with Hanley Disher, was celebrated as a pioneer in her small, Maryland farm town. When she went off to the academy, she was stunned by the hatred she faced when she got there. “While I knew it was first class and it was all male, I didn’t have any perspective. The
reaction we got − a sort of resentment, hatred, otherness, all of that − was unexpected. I spent four years just trying to get through it. The hazing and harassment − dead rats being left in mailboxes, the constant put-downs − were largely unaddressed by leaders,” she said.
Sadly, current students still face some of what she endured. Hanley Disher, who married a fellow graduate and again made history when all three of their children graduated from the academy, said she was thrilled to see her daughter have more congressionally mandated opportunities available to her. But she was
heartbroken when she heard that some of the old school misogyny was still there. “This one guy told my daughter a joke,” she recounted. He said: “What did the ugliest girl in the world say to the second ugliest girl in the world? What company are you in?”
Some of the women from the class of 1980 have never returned to the academy to celebrate milestones, as their colleagues took command in the Navy and rose in the ranks at the academy. They told Hanley Disher − when she reached out to them for reunions or events − that they can’t. But people change, places
change. During their 35th reunion, one of the men who was a primo harasser of women apologized to her. He told her that he has been living with guilt over the things he said and did, and wanted to apologize to all of them. So, Disher took him by the arm and said “Let’s go”. She accompanied him on his apology
tour, and then they cried about it at the bar.

ÁFRICA NA SEGUNDA GUERRA MUNDIAL:
UM CAPÍTULO ESQUECIDO
A partir de 3 de setembro de 1939, quando a Grã-Bretanha e a França declararam guerra à Alemanha, os Aliados recrutaram na África cerca de meio milhão de soldados e operários. Soldados de toda a África subsaariana e do norte do continente tiveram de lutar contra as
tropas alemãs e italianas no norte da África e na Europa durante a guerra. Mais tarde também combateram contra os japoneses na Ásia e no Pacífico.
Nos noticiários na Europa falava-se em “voluntários”. Mas o antigo soldado congolês Albert Kuniuku, de 93 anos, tem outra versão: “Foi um verdadeiro recrutamento forçado. Eu trabalhava numa empresa têxtil quando nos foram buscar. Todos os jovens trabalhadores foram recrutados. Nenhum deles tinha mais de 30 anos.”
Albert Kuniuku é presidente da União dos Veteranos Congoleses (UNACO) em Kinshasa, a capital da República Democrática do Congo. Até 1960, o país foi governado pela Bélgica. O veterano é um dos últimos sobreviventes de uma unidade expedicionária que lutou contra
os japoneses na Índia e no Mianmar (antiga Birmânia), entre 1940 e 1946, sob comando britânico e belga, longe dos campos de batalha da Europa.

As células do cérebro não envelhecem
Hoje eu quero contar para vocês sobre um estudo inovador realizado na Columbia University, que confirma que as células cerebrais não envelhecem.
Na verdade, o que se descobriu é que você tem exatamente o mesmo número de células nervosas (ou neurônios) quando jovem.
Isso foi admitido inclusive como certo pelo diretor do Instituto Nacional de Saúde dos EUA.
Eles provaram que o cérebro pode continuar criando novos neurônios para sempre.
Portanto, a velha teoria de que cérebros humanos não podem construir novos neurônios cai por terra!
Então, por que ocorre o declínio mental?
O que ocorre, na verdade, é que não é o número de células do seu cérebro que diminui, mas sim o número de células-tronco cerebrais e os vasos sanguíneos que as alimentam que diminuem.
Os cientistas da Columbia estudaram cérebros doados por pessoas idosas que morreram de causas naturais. Eles descobriram que os cérebros dos idosos tinham a mesma quantidade de novos neurônios que os jovens.
Além disso, eles também encontraram um número menor de células-tronco inativas, ou "quiescentes", em uma área do cérebro ligada à resistência cognitivo-emocional.
Trata-se das nossas forças de reserva que alimentam nossa capacidade de aprender e se adaptar. [...]
