A conversation on the so-called IHRA definition of antisemitism
June 28, 2023, 9:31 p.m.
Our feature presentation focuses on an examination of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of Anti-Semitism through a conversation that Lara Friedman moderates with Yousef Munayyer and Emma Saltzberg. The most recent definition which has taken root is the controversial International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. There is a current campaign to codify this definition in law. Such legislation is now before the Massachusetts House and Senate and is being fought by a network of pro-Palestinian organizations. By design, the IHRA definition’s focus on branding criticism of Israel as antisemitic makes it a tool to silence critics of Israel and shield the Israeli government from accountability. It fails to identify the true nature of antisemitism or its root causes in white supremacy.

Seniors for Peace - A celebration of 20 years of Peace Work
June 28, 2023, 12:47 a.m.
When I joined Seniors for Peace at their second ever rally for peace in Iraq on February 7, 2003, I did not dream that 20 years later they would still be coming out every Friday from 4 to 5 pm to the busy intersection near their home. Undaunted - even by hostility - they have called for peace in all the subsequent wars since then.
Among those who I met in 2003 was a survivor of the firebombing of Dresden and a Red Cross worker in London who saw the young men dead on both sides and still mourned their loss of life.
I’m honoring them now - 20 years later - for the work they have continued and expanded since then.

An Upfront Talk About Carbon With Lloyd Alter
June 27, 2023, 8:24 p.m.
For some time now, ecologists and environmentalists have been promoting life-cycle analyses - calculations of the environmental impact of a product, from the sourcing of materials all the way through to its disposal. While this is still a valid expenditure of effort, our guest today on Sea Change Radio argues that we may need to re-focus more narrowly on the carbon generated at the front-end of an article's life: its production, transportation, delivery, and installation. He asserts that these "upfront carbon" emissions are the more urgent and immediate concerns, and we simply don't have time to focus on the rest of the product's life. This week we welcome back to the show author, environmental journalist, and design expert Lloyd Alter, to discuss his upcoming book, "The Story of Upfront Carbon." We learn about the birth of the term, discuss why it's a useful lens for making consumer decisions, and go down a carbon emissions rabbit hole on products like iPhones, electric vehicles, and e-bikes.

Juneteenth Celebration Episode
With Clips from The Young Turks and roland Martin Unfiltered
This is going to be an episode about race (and one which I ramble a bit, sorry for that, but its still a great episode), I acknowledge this point at the outset of the episode. I talk about my evolution on the topic of race, how I used to look at it and how I now see it (I think I will dedicate some more time to this topic in the future as I’ve never really discussed how my views on race have evolved in one sitting). I spend some time on the low unemployment rate in the black community, explaining why its due more to necessity than changing attitudes in the country – or so it seems. I spend more time, though, on the healing that will be required to truly overcome this race-thing problem; which I see as a great contribution to my work on this podcast.
Music Used in the opening, Curtis Mayfield’s Think, Brandy’s The Definition and Marvin Gaye’s Inner City Blues

Trump’s indictment has been discussed, ridiculed, praised and analyzed for its effect on the 2024 election. In this Episode Segment I start by discussing the concern I have concerning Black Americans concerning our ability to appreciate what Late Stage Capitalism is creating in this country. Then I dive into the true topic in this segment; though that topic is trump’s indictment, the hidden truer topic is a discussion on America’s choices at critical turning points. Specifically I focus in on “American Expansionism” and the deeper question, after the conquered were subdued and the borders to the country were extended to their maximum extension, what would become of that Expansive nature and energy? This is a topic that has, to my knowledge, never been broached in a podcast setting. I then tie this back to Trump’s indictment and the future that is quickly being sown together by the Regressive Nihilist in America’s right-wing.

After reading about the agreement Biden struck with House Republicans to avert a financial disaster which Republicans were more than willing to make a reality to achieve what they wanted – which they did; I recorded this episode segment under the title above to discuss the possible historical implications of this agreement. Please take note, I am not passing judgment on the 2024 Election altogether. What I am trying to convey is the impact this agreement will have on people’s motivation to vote for Biden in 2024. To that point I encourage people to vote for Biden, but to make his next term about the House being under Progressive leadership. It’s time to build the type of political juggernaut we say we want and need, the only way that is going to happen is extensive organization (at street level) and institution building (at all levels), this is the true reason why this country changed in the past.

Do white lives matter, that isn’t a question I tackle directly in this episode, but indirectly – I take it on viciously. The answer to this question in the contexts of women’s reproductive rights is No. What the decision overturning Roe v. Wade means to the valuation of white life in this country screams throughout this land. White life is as valuable as the Nihilists, Conservatives and Regressives say it is. And that value is minimal outside the womb, but inside the womb. . . . well, I can’t speak on that number as it hasn’t been given anywhere. But what I can speak on is the soft and hard power dynamics that have been utilized against the White European-American Peasant throughout the past five centuries to push them into becoming the amnesic ill-informed settler state colonial American resident they are today. What I can also talk about is the often covered over anti-black women’s history that paints their support for Donald Trump and white nationalists presently, in a whole new light. Oh this is not an easy episode to listen to – no I’m not about victim shaming, nor am I laying the blame on all women; what I am doing is calling a bed sheet a bed sheet and a Klanswoman a member of the party opposing women’s rights for body autonomy.

The One true Responsibility of Government is to Build Institutions that Build a Police State or so Joe Biden Says

In episode segment 2023.0A.01 I played Biden’s remarks on the debt ceiling agreement; in those remarks he made a statement that echoed in my mind. He said the one true responsibility government has is to take care of soldiers and military personnel; a very Romanesque statement. This statement prophesizes a military heavy state where violence reigns, especially from those who are “in power” or “hold power” or those who “capture power”. Now upon listening to this episode you may want to roll your eyes and say “that’s just a statement, you’re reading far too much into what he is saying”. I don’t believe that, mainly because I see the same sentiment on the right and throughout history, especially European history (to the extent I have had the ability to study that history). More, I see the aggressiveness of the police apparatus as an extension from this line of thinking. But I’ll not argue all my points here, I will let the podcast do the talking.

OceanGate
A Libertarian Nightmare is Producing the Exact Results it Claims to be Avoiding

I had no intension of adding a libertarian episode segment to this June Topical Episode, but alas, the OceanGate tragedy punched me in my solar plexus as I saw the tragedy as what it was; symbolic of libertarian argument for deregulation and ignorance of previously created problem solving and injury preventing guidelines. Now I know what many libertarians will say to this charge – we don’t believe that, we just believe the private sectors would do a better job of implementing and following those guidelines than the government would do. OceanGate, along with countless countries where deregulation is not only debated but national policy, disproves your assertion. OceanGate’s entrepreneurial spirit was centered around the ego madness of its founder who literally stated he was not following previous guidelines because they inhibited his innovative genius (he didn’t use the word genius, but it was implied). That innovative genius put him and his passengers in a new league of their own; which if that their implosion under severe pressure is not seen as a metaphor for NeoColonial (that’s Neoliberal-Neoconservative Libertarian) Capitalism, then I don’t know what is.

The matters discussed include Israel's increasing attacks on innocent Palestinians, including children, and perhaps most shocking, on the actual funeral of reporter Shireen Abu Akleh, victim of Israeli shooting.
