What US Congress Researchers Reveal About Washington's Designs On Syria.
Feb. 25, 2016, 11:38 a.m.
The White House has given many phony reasons for demanding regime change in Syria, saying they want stability, or reform, or to prevent the use of chemical weapons. While these reasons have been laughed at by observers who note Washingtonâs fondness for monarchs and its history of destabilizing sovereign countries, Stephen Gowans points out there is in fact a âreasonâ, one that is clearly spelled out in the records of the Congressional Research Service. America intends to remove Assad as an âimpedimentâ to Israelâs hegemony in the region and to convert Syria from a âSoviet modelâ into a free market economy.
What is left out of Most Black History Discussions
Feb. 25, 2016, 11:31 a.m.
On the occasion of Black History Month, Norman Richmond of âUhuru Radioâ talks about racism in sports and film, touching on the new film âRaceâ(Jesse Owens in the Berlin Olympics) and âBlack Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolutionâ. Missing from the Panther film is the fact the organization had a socialist program and internationalist outlook.
Norman remembers when more truthful films were made, citing âBlack Jesusâ which starred the great athlete and actor Woody Strode in a story based on Patrice Lumumba.
Syrian army advances as ceasefire approaches.
Feb. 25, 2016, 11:28 a.m.
Sahioune provides an update on the key areas of combat in these days before the Russian-US cease fire agreement goes into effect. He reports on the loss of a fine journalist and friend
who has been killed by the terrorists who lately have begun to hit targets for sheer propaganda purposes to divert attention from their losses. A most important point in Steveâs commentary is that the Kurds fighters near the Turkish crossing zone are Syrians and part of the struggle to preserve the territorial integrity of their country.

Changes In Segregation Since 1952
Feb. 23, 2016, 6:50 p.m.
In May, 1954 the United States Supreme Court unanimously declared, âsegregation in public education is a denial of the equal protection of the laws.â Brown v. The Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, was a leader of many that gave strength and support to the initial struggles for equal civil rights and equal access for all people regardless of skin color. Now 62 years later the concept of affirmative action admission policies for racial equality in public universities continues.
In this 2004 archive edition of Radio Curious we visit with Dr. Elizabeth Allen, now a Professor Emeritus of Nursing at the University of Michigan. As a high school student in 1957, Dr. Allen was one of the first African-American students to integrate the West Virginia high schools. Later she was a Captain in the U.S. Army as Combat Nurse in Viet Nam, prior to obtaining a Masterâs Degree and Ph.D. in nursing and becoming a professor of nursing at the University of Michigan.
This is the first of a two part series recorded in April 2004, in commemoration of the Brown v. Board of Education decision, recorded in late April 2004, Dr. Elizabeth Allen and I began our visit with her description the changes in racial segregation between 1954 and 2004.
Dr. Elizaeth Allen is an avid romance reader and recommends any book written by Linda Howard. She also recommends âThe Price of Loyaltyâ by David Suskind with former US Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill.
