Read about this interview on Kindred at: http://www.kindredmedia.org/2014/05/exploring-intersection-midwifery-prenatal-psychology-mary-jackson/
It is ideal when couples and practitioners can prepare for birth with support from pre and perinatal psychology and health. This interview with Mary Jackson, midwife and president of BEBA, Building and Enhancing Bonding and Attachment, explains:
- How imprints happen from the prenatal period and birth and
- How BEBA, Building and Enhancing Bonding and Attachment supports couples and families to have optimal birth and postpartum experiences, and
- What to do when there has been difficulty along the way.
Mary works with prenatal pioneer, Ray Castellino, at BEBA, where she lives in California. Her vision for what is possible is very moving and essentially, "birth matters."
This interview is presented as part of Kindred's alternative media and nonprofit mission to "Share the New Story of Childhood, Parenthood and the Human Family" and as an educational film series with APPPAH through Kindred Pioneering Partners' Project.
Exploring the Intersection of Midwifery and Prenatal Psychology features a dynamic and insight-filled interview with the iconic Mary Jackson by Kate White, the director of education for the Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health, APPPAH.

Mary is a brilliant scientist who is, for whatever reason, forced to investigate the world from a black and white room via a black and white television monitor. She specializes in the neurophysiology of vision and acquires, let us suppose, all the physical information there is to obtain about what goes on when we see ripe tomatoes, or the sky, and use terms like 'red', 'blue', and so on. She discovers, for example, just which wavelength combinations from the sky stimulate the retina, and exactly how this produces via the central nervous system the contraction of the vocal cords and expulsion of air from the lungs that results in the uttering of the sentence 'The sky is blue'. [...] What will happen when Mary is released from her black and white room or is given a color television monitor? Will she learn anything or not?
In other words, Jackson's Mary is a scientist who knows everything there is to know about the science of color, but has never experienced color. The question that Jackson raises is: once she experiences color, does she learn anything new?
Ontologically, the following argument is contained in the thought experiment:
(P1) Any and every piece of physical knowledge in regards to human color vision has been obtained (by the test subject, Mary) prior to her release from the black-and-white room. She has all the physical knowledge on the subject.
(P2) Upon leaving the room and witnessing color first-hand, she obtains new knowledge.
(C) There was some knowledge about human color vision she did not have prior to her release. Therefore, not all knowledge is physical knowledge.
Most authors who discuss the knowledge argument cite the case of Mary, but Frank Jackson used a further example in his seminal article: the case of a person, Fred, who sees a color unknown to normal human perceivers. We might want to know what color Fred experiences when looking at things that appear to him in that particular way. It seems clear that no amount of knowledge about what happens in his brain and about how color information is processed in his visual system will help us to find an answer to that question. In both cases cited by Jackson, an epistemic subject A appears to have no access to particular items of knowledge about a subject B: A cannot know that B has an experience of a particular quality Q on certain occasions. This particular item of knowledge about B is inaccessible to A because A never had experiences of Q herself.
The knowledge argument
The knowledge argument is that if Mary does learn something new upon experiencing color, then physicalism is false. Specifically, the Knowledge Argument is an attack on the physicalist claim about the completeness of physical explanations of mental states. Mary may know everything about the science of color perception, but can she know what the experience of red is like if she has never seen red? Jackson contends that, yes, she has learned something new, via experience, and hence, physicalism is false. Jackson states:
It seems just obvious that she will learn something about the world and our visual experience of it. But then it is inescapable that her previous knowledge was incomplete. But she had all the physical information. Ergo there is more to have than that, and Physicalism is false.[4]
It is important to note that in Jackson's article, physicalism refers to the epistemological doctrine that all knowledge is knowledge of physical facts, and not the metaphysical doctrine that all things are physical things.

Perry Bradford (Feb.14,1893, Montgomery, Alabama - April 20,1970, New York City) was an African American composer, songwriter, and vaudeville performer.
Perry Bradford grew up in Atlanta where his family moved when he was six, and in 1906 started working with minstrel shows. He played in Chicago as a solo pianist as early as 1909 and visited New York City the following year.
Through extensive experience with traveling minstrel shows and theatre companies, Bradford obtained huge exposure and experience to Negro folksongs. A huge feat of Bradford's was severing the walls of racial prejudice that kept Negro singers from recording. He is, too often, unrecognized for this accomplishment. Prior to Bradford's influence, Negro artists recorded in a style that was closely similar to those of white dance orchestras. There was little to no trace of Negro musical characteristics present in their recordings. Bradford persevered in getting the recording industry to value recordings of Negro artists recording in the style of their own subculture.
As a pianist, singer, dancer and composer, Bradford worked in theatre circuits throughout the South and into the North for the next decade (1908-1919) in a song and dance act billed as "Bradford and Jeanette". While in New York City, Bradford convinced Fred Hager, of OKeh Records, to record Mamie Smith and became her musical director. Smith starred in Bradford's show Made in Harlem (1918). Bradford was also responsible for Smith being the first African American blues singer to appear on record (singing his "Crazy Blues") in 1920. Bradford claimed that his revue, "Made in Harlem," was the first stage production that offered blues matter to the large, northern audience in Harlem. Bradford was able to organize the first recording session, "That Thing Called Love," that highlighted a Negro artist, accompanied by a white studio band, performing material specific to the Negro culture.
He had offices in the Gaiety Theatre office building in Times Square. Bradford toured and recorded with Smith, worked with Alberta Hunter and also headed seven recording sessions of his own during 1923-27. Among Bradford's sidemen were Johnny Dunn, Bubber Miley, Garvin Bushell, Louis Armstrong (on two numbers in 1925), Buster Bailey, and James P. Johnson.
Bradford continued to promote blues and jazz recordings by publishing and managing. Bradford's influence in the recording industry was negatively affected by the crash of the stock market, as well as by changes in the character of jazz and Negro songs. He was an irregular participant after the 1940s.
With the rise of the Great Depression, Bradford slipped away into obscurity. In later years, he appeared to exaggerate his role in early blues, possibly a reaction to his being nearly forgotten. In 1965, Bradford's autobiography "Born With the Blues" was published (New York: Oak Publications) with a foreword by Noble Sissle.

Mary Jackson (22 November 1910 Milford, Michigan – 10 December 2005 Los Angeles, California) was an American actress. She is best known for the role of the lovelorn "Miss Emily Baldwin" in The Waltons and was the original choice to play "Alice Horton" in Days of our Lives. She in fact played the part in the unaired pilot although the role was subsequently taken by Frances Reid.
She earned a bachelor's degree from Western Michigan University in 1932. She was a schoolteacher during the Depression for one year before pursuing her interest in the theater. She returned to college, although this time at Michigan State University, in a fine arts program and started out on the Chicago stage and in summer stock before migrating to New York City and Los Angeles.
Mary Jackson was survived by her husband of 68 years, Griffin Bancroft Jr., to whom she was married from July 4, 1937 until her death from Parkinson's disease at age 95 in Los Angeles. They had no children.

Famous quotes by Mary Jackson:
"They say six percent. They may hop on it and don't realize it's a scam. I want to make sure it don't happen to nobody."
"It leads me to believe it was a scam, that he was trying to take everything I had."
"I could have lost everything, everything in my bank account and my identity."
"He was trying to sell me a six percent loan. Then he told me there was a loan officer right there that would make my house payment six percent."
"And I didn't know that while I was at work, he would go every day."
"I'm not really excited about it because of all the traffic and congestion it's going to bring around here. Right now, we live in a little, quiet neighborhood, and with all that coming down at the corner, I don't know what that's going to be like."
"There was no police, no (National) Guard here last night. They're taking everything."
"Coming here from the South will be a culture shock. It is important for us to reach out and help them to adjust."
"It's not a frenzy like it used to be, but it's a good line."

Frank Jackson - The Knowledge Argument - Mary's Room - Mary the Super-Scientist
Mary is a brilliant scientist who is, for whatever reason, forced to investigate the world from a black and white room via a black and white television monitor. She specializes in the neurophysiology of vision and acquires, let us suppose, all the physical information there is to obtain about what goes on when we see ripe tomatoes, or the sky, and use terms like 'red', 'blue', and so on. She discovers, for example, just which wavelength combinations from the sky stimulate the retina, and exactly how this produces via the central nervous system the contraction of the vocal cords and expulsion of air from the lungs that results in the uttering of the sentence 'The sky is blue'. [...] What will happen when Mary is released from her black and white room or is given a color television monitor? ... -

Mary Jackson, Perry Bradford's Jazz Phools - Who'll Get It When I'm Gone (1923)
Perry Bradford (Feb.14,1893, Montgomery, Alabama - April 20,1970, New York City) was an African American composer, songwriter, and vaudeville performer. Perry Bradford grew up in Atlanta where his family moved when he was six, and in 1906 started working with minstrel shows. He played in Chicago as a solo pianist as early as 1909 and visited New York City the following year. Through extensive experience with traveling minstrel shows and theatre companies, Bradford obtained huge exposure and experience to Negro folksongs. A huge feat of Bradford's was severing the walls of racial prejudice that kept Negro singers from recording. He is, too often, unrecognized for this accomplishment.

Mary is a brilliant scientist who is, for whatever reason, forced to investigate the world from a black and white room via a black and white television monitor. She specializes in the neurophysiology of vision and acquires, let us suppose, all the physical information there is to obtain about what goes on when we see ripe tomatoes, or the sky, and use terms like 'red', 'blue', and so on. She discovers, for example, just which wavelength combinations from the sky stimulate the retina, and exactly how this produces via the central nervous system the contraction of the vocal cords and expulsion of air from the lungs that results in the uttering of the sentence 'The sky is blue'. [...] What will happen when Mary is released from her black and white room or is given a color television monitor? Will she learn anything or not?
In other words, Jackson's Mary is a scientist who knows everything there is to know about the science of color, but has never experienced color. The question that Jackson raises is: once she experiences color, does she learn anything new?
Ontologically, the following argument is contained in the thought experiment:
(P1) Any and every piece of physical knowledge in regards to human color vision has been obtained (by the test subject, Mary) prior to her release from the black-and-white room. She has all the physical knowledge on the subject.
(P2) Upon leaving the room and witnessing color first-hand, she obtains new knowledge.
(C) There was some knowledge about human color vision she did not have prior to her release. Therefore, not all knowledge is physical knowledge.
Most authors who discuss the knowledge argument cite the case of Mary, but Frank Jackson used a further example in his seminal article: the case of a person, Fred, who sees a color unknown to normal human perceivers. We might want to know what color Fred experiences when looking at things that appear to him in that particular way. It seems clear that no amount of knowledge about what happens in his brain and about how color information is processed in his visual system will help us to find an answer to that question. In both cases cited by Jackson, an epistemic subject A appears to have no access to particular items of knowledge about a subject B: A cannot know that B has an experience of a particular quality Q on certain occasions. This particular item of knowledge about B is inaccessible to A because A never had experiences of Q herself.
The knowledge argument
The knowledge argument is that if Mary does learn something new upon experiencing color, then physicalism is false. Specifically, the Knowledge Argument is an attack on the physicalist claim about the completeness of physical explanations of mental states. Mary may know everything about the science of color perception, but can she know what the experience of red is like if she has never seen red? Jackson contends that, yes, she has learned something new, via experience, and hence, physicalism is false. Jackson states:
It seems just obvious that she will learn something about the world and our visual experience of it. But then it is inescapable that her previous knowledge was incomplete. But she had all the physical information. Ergo there is more to have than that, and Physicalism is false.[4]
It is important to note that in Jackson's article, physicalism refers to the epistemological doctrine that all knowledge is knowledge of physical facts, and not the metaphysical doctrine that all things are physical things.
wn.com/Frank Jackson The Knowledge Argument Mary's Room Mary The Super Scientist
Mary is a brilliant scientist who is, for whatever reason, forced to investigate the world from a black and white room via a black and white television monitor. She specializes in the neurophysiology of vision and acquires, let us suppose, all the physical information there is to obtain about what goes on when we see ripe tomatoes, or the sky, and use terms like 'red', 'blue', and so on. She discovers, for example, just which wavelength combinations from the sky stimulate the retina, and exactly how this produces via the central nervous system the contraction of the vocal cords and expulsion of air from the lungs that results in the uttering of the sentence 'The sky is blue'. [...] What will happen when Mary is released from her black and white room or is given a color television monitor? Will she learn anything or not?
In other words, Jackson's Mary is a scientist who knows everything there is to know about the science of color, but has never experienced color. The question that Jackson raises is: once she experiences color, does she learn anything new?
Ontologically, the following argument is contained in the thought experiment:
(P1) Any and every piece of physical knowledge in regards to human color vision has been obtained (by the test subject, Mary) prior to her release from the black-and-white room. She has all the physical knowledge on the subject.
(P2) Upon leaving the room and witnessing color first-hand, she obtains new knowledge.
(C) There was some knowledge about human color vision she did not have prior to her release. Therefore, not all knowledge is physical knowledge.
Most authors who discuss the knowledge argument cite the case of Mary, but Frank Jackson used a further example in his seminal article: the case of a person, Fred, who sees a color unknown to normal human perceivers.

Perry Bradford (Feb.14,1893, Montgomery, Alabama - April 20,1970, New York City) was an African American composer, songwriter, and vaudeville performer.
Perry Bradford grew up in Atlanta where his family moved when he was six, and in 1906 started working with minstrel shows. He played in Chicago as a solo pianist as early as 1909 and visited New York City the following year.
Through extensive experience with traveling minstrel shows and theatre companies, Bradford obtained huge exposure and experience to Negro folksongs. A huge feat of Bradford's was severing the walls of racial prejudice that kept Negro singers from recording. He is, too often, unrecognized for this accomplishment. Prior to Bradford's influence, Negro artists recorded in a style that was closely similar to those of white dance orchestras. There was little to no trace of Negro musical characteristics present in their recordings. Bradford persevered in getting the recording industry to value recordings of Negro artists recording in the style of their own subculture.
As a pianist, singer, dancer and composer, Bradford worked in theatre circuits throughout the South and into the North for the next decade (1908-1919) in a song and dance act billed as "Bradford and Jeanette". While in New York City, Bradford convinced Fred Hager, of OKeh Records, to record Mamie Smith and became her musical director. Smith starred in Bradford's show Made in Harlem (1918). Bradford was also responsible for Smith being the first African American blues singer to appear on record (singing his "Crazy Blues") in 1920. Bradford claimed that his revue, "Made in Harlem," was the first stage production that offered blues matter to the large, northern audience in Harlem. Bradford was able to organize the first recording session, "That Thing Called Love," that highlighted a Negro artist, accompanied by a white studio band, performing material specific to the Negro culture.
He had offices in the Gaiety Theatre office building in Times Square. Bradford toured and recorded with Smith, worked with Alberta Hunter and also headed seven recording sessions of his own during 1923-27. Among Bradford's sidemen were Johnny Dunn, Bubber Miley, Garvin Bushell, Louis Armstrong (on two numbers in 1925), Buster Bailey, and James P. Johnson.
Bradford continued to promote blues and jazz recordings by publishing and managing. Bradford's influence in the recording industry was negatively affected by the crash of the stock market, as well as by changes in the character of jazz and Negro songs. He was an irregular participant after the 1940s.
With the rise of the Great Depression, Bradford slipped away into obscurity. In later years, he appeared to exaggerate his role in early blues, possibly a reaction to his being nearly forgotten. In 1965, Bradford's autobiography "Born With the Blues" was published (New York: Oak Publications) with a foreword by Noble Sissle.
