They pretend we do not exist. They try to bury us. They try to erase us. But history keeps a fine accounting and our deeds are immortal. They pretend the heroic communists who fought so bravely in the labor struggles of the 1930s did not exist. They pretend the heroic volunteers of the International Brigades who gave their lives in the struggle against fascism did not exist. They pretend, and continue to pretend, that the Palestinian people who have struggled so hard since the Nakba not to be erased as a people do not exist, along with the martyrs of countless other anti-colonial liberation struggles worldwide. But they can pretend all they like, because we'll always be here, and together, in solidarity, we will win.

Resisters Raji Sourani and Shawan Jabarin
May 14, 2016, 2:28 p.m.
In this one-hour edition, we feature two human rights giants from Palestineâ¦each of whom has a long record of resistance to the Israeli occupation going back to their youth, which, of course translates into being considered terrorists by the Israeli government. And as a result of that resistance they have arrest, detention and prison records, as do virtually all resisters to the occupation, which means obtaining visas to travel is very difficult and sometimes impossible. But this time they were able to get the necessary documents to come to the United States and we are most fortunate to have their voices this morning on TWIP.
Raji Sourani lives in Gaza and is the founder and Director of Palestinian Center for Human Rights.
Shawan Jabarin lives in Ramallah and is Director of Al Haq, the oldest and best-known human rights organization in the West Bank, and a member of the Advisory Committee of Human Rights Watch.
The presentations you will hear this morning were recorded at an event at the JFK School of Government at Harvard University.

Canada Syndrome: Good People Supporting Mass Internment, War, and Genocide
May 13, 2016, 7:22 p.m.
Throughout history, decent, progressive-minded Canadians with humanitarian instincts have provided tacit, if not overt support for State violence. These have included genocidal policies against the Indigenous population of the country, the internment of thousands of Eastern European migrants in slave labour camps, and imperial aggression in South Africa, Haiti, and Libya.
Ottawa based radical and anti-war activist Richard Sanders is convinced that the bulk of the public have become captives of a psychosis springing from national narratives of Canadian exceptionalism. These narratives blind us to the violence being perpetrated against our fellow humans in the service of elite interests, even convincing us these actions are right and good.
The âCanada Syndrome,â as he calls it, is the subject of this feature length interview. It includes a discussion of the famous social gospel and how revered figures like J.S. Woodsworth displayed highly racist and xenophobic sentiments and ironically served to reinforce the authority of corporate elites.

#428 -- Why Our War Against ISIS Can't Be Won (Part 2)
May 13, 2016, 3:43 p.m.
Bennis explains how US actions in the Middle East gave rise to ISIS and sustain it. Since ISIS's terrorism is a response to the profound damage the US military has done to the region--and to other US crimes and blunders--still more US military action will only make matters worse.
There is no military solution. A diplomatic solution is possible--but does the US even WANT one?
Also in Part 2: Bennis brings in Israel, Palestine, and Saudi Arabia; and KD adds a few thoughts on 9-11 coverups.

Democracy Now's longtime producer, Amy Goodman, spoke at length to a packed audience in Cambridge, MA, on 5/10/2016. Amy talks about the most pressing issues facing our democracy today, the 2016 presidential election, and she reflects on the past twenty years of covering the heroes at the forefront of movements for change in America.
Her brother and co-author David Goodman also spoke briefly. The event was sponsored by Cambridge Forum (cambridgeforum.org), and while its own recording will be posted, CF has pledged to edit it into a 30-minute segment convenient for radio broadcasters. Since Amy spoke for 72 minutes, we believe all of it deserves to be shared widely, so we got Amy's permission to post its entirety. For the event's opening and closing and David's remarks, go to https://archive.org/details/AmyGoodman-160510.
Amy Goodman and some of her Democracy Now team are halfway through a remarkable 100-city tour. Meanwhile she continues to produce Democracy Now every weekday. For more information about Democracy Now, or to sample its content, go to its website (democracynow.org).
Part of the 100-city tour involves selling and signing Amy's most recent book, Democracy Now! 20 Years Covering the Movements Changing America (co-authored with DN staffer Denis Moynihan and Amy's brother, journalist David Goodman).

Out of the Woods - Show #319 - 5-21-16
May 12, 2016, 9:26 p.m.
This version of the program is divided into **7** segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul
