Vandana Shiva's Celebration of Gandhi's Home Rule; Part TWO of TWO

This is the conclusion of the one hour talk by the Indian physicist, ecologist, author and seed saver Vandana Shiva. This part of her speech is an indictment of industrial agriculture - much of it based on her research into the Green Revolution and her work with the Indian government and the UN. Monsanto claims that Glyphosate can't harm humans because we do not have the shikimate pathway that plants and bacteria have. Shiva says what they ignore - or deliberately not tell us - is that the human body is made up of 600 trillion cells - most of which are bacteria. Many of the trillions of bacteria in our bodies and especially inside our gut are affected by the Roundup Ready GMOs we eat. She points to new disease epidemics with the highest numbers in the USA. They may be related to the early introduction and wide distribution of GMOs and the two associated toxins, Bt and Roundup. Research in Shiva's Navdanya Foundation shows that wherever Bt crops or Glyphosate are used the soils and pollinators are seriously affected. She also warns that more and more countries are creating laws that criminalize the age old practice of saving and exchanging of seeds. She praises the efforts of localization and encourages everybody not to give up our relationships to nature and each other that are based on love and care.

The Imprisonment of A Climate Hero

In the remote Indian ocean nation of the Maldives, they don’t have the luxury of discussing climate change as an academic subject. The small country’s very existence faces a nearly inescapable fate of submersion. As president of the Maldives, Mohamed Nasheed was embraced by the international environmental community when he sent out a clarion call for immediate action to harness greenhouse gases at the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference of 2009. He was also featured in the documentary film, The Island President, which chronicled his inspiring efforts. And yet, Mohamed Nasheed now faces a different sort of struggle. He was overthrown by a military dictatorship in 2013 and was incarcerated earlier this year. This week on Sea Change Radio, we discuss the plight of this imprisoned climate hero with his attorney, international human rights lawyer Jared Genser. Genser recently visited President Nasheed along with fellow human rights activist, Amal Clooney, who's also known as the wife of movie star George Clooney. I talk with Genser about the current political situation in the Maldives and what his team is doing to help free not only President Nasheed but also the 1700 other political prisoners locked up by the dictatorship of Abdullah Yameen.

Out of the Woods - Show #286 - 10-3-15

This version of the program is divided into 6 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, from Arlo Guthrie to Aerosmith. 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

Max Blumenthal, who was inside Gaza during Israel's attack

Our main feature this week is a talk by Max Blumenthal, author most recently of The 51 Day War: Ruin and Resistance in Gaza. Blumenthal was actually in Gaza during that "war" (actually a brutal one-sided attack by Israel with U.S. support). One year ago today, Israel invaded, bombed and shelled Gaza, and continued to do that for the next seven weeks. According to the U.N., at least 2,104 Gazans were killed — 1,462 of whom (69 percent) were civilians, including 495 children. A total of 6 Israeli civilians, and 66 soldiers, were killed. The shockingly high civilian death rate in Gaza included the now-iconic imagery of four young boys from the same family being killed by Israeli warships while they played on a beach in front of a hotel filled with foreign journalists. But first, we read an article by our colleague Samer Jaber, reporting on our courts' outrageous treatment of Rasmea Odeh. She was sentenced to prison for allegedly falsifying a U.S. citizenship application. She had been tortured and imprisoned by Israel forces, reporting honestly on her application that she had never been imprisoned for a crime she committed. The judge in her case wouldn't allow the real story into evidence, adding to her sentence for trying to do so.

Soil Moisture and the Nature of Drought

Keynote address at the Citizens Climate Lobby - Midwest Regional Conference by Bennet B. Brabson, Professor Emeritus, IU Bloomington, whose research included the Physics of Climate Change. The sun says, Professor Brabson, does either one of two things when it's energy encounters Earth: it evaporates water or it heats the surface. Roughly 80% of the energy is absorbed converting water to water vapor. The heated land however gives off infra-red radiation, the energy we perceive as warmth, back into space. He compares the Earth's atmosphere to two windows. One totally open to the incoming energy but the other partially closed to the out going. That partially closed window, due to heat trapping gases like water vapor and CO2 is why were have a livable planet. But human use of fossil fuels and world wide destruction of forests and grass lands has been adding to the relatively tiny presence of CO2 and in effect closing the window that lets out the heat. Unlike the water vapor, which cycles in and out of the atmosphere, CO2 can remain for a thousand years unless taken up by the Earth's forests and grass lands; biomes which Capitalism has excelled at greatly reducing. The geological record reveals that drought comes in two forms: Hot and Cool. Professor Brabson speaks about the effect that a hotter atmosphere has on soil moisture, his area of research, and more intense weather and the negative potential for food security. Professor Brabson's offers some examples of clever solutions to reduce fossil fuel use that can be implemented when the influence of the fossil fuel lobby on policy makers is countered through the work of folks like those in his audience.

Daryle Lamont Jenkins on the far right in the U.S. and an update on the Menard hunger strike

This week we're speaking with Daryle Lamont Jenkins of One People's Project based in Philadelphia, PA. Mr Jenkins is a writer, activist, and committed anti fascist. This hour we'll speak about the state of fascism in the US and how to approach dealing with fascists and racists in your community. We talk about the One People's Project, its history, and its goals. Keep an eye out for their new website at http://idavox.com/ to be up next month. For the time being they're still at www.onepeoplesproject.com To write to the One People's Project, address letters to: One People's Project PO BOX 42817 Philadelphia, PA 19101 For more about Ida B. Wells you can visit the wikipedia article about her: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_B._Wells For information about the TORCH Antifa Conference in November 2015 you can visit their website: http://phillyantifa.noblogs.org/torch-antifa-conference-2015/ And for more about the 0161 Festival in England, you can visit their facebook link: https://www.facebook.com/events/1784785365081629/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is an update on the hunger strike in Menard: Some of you will remember the hunger strike in January-February 2014 by prisoners in Administrative Detention at the Menard Correctional Center in Menard, Illinois. During and after the hunger strike, several of the hunger strikers were sent to prisons as far away as California, Virginia, West Virginia, and New Mexico. Others remain in Administrative Detention at Menard. Many of the 2014 hunger strikers wanted to know why they were there, and they wanted to know what they had to do to get out of Administrative Detention. Although the Illinois Department of Corrections now issues some notices, the notices still don’t answer those questions. The following information is drawn from letters received in September 2015 from prisoners in Administrative Detention at Menard, compiled by Alice Lynd. Here in A.D., everything is still the same. No one is being released and we are still not getting meaningful hearings. We are still not getting any written reasons or any new info relied on for the basis of the Committee’s decision for our continued placement in A.D. We are still getting the same vague memos. We now only get 1 day a week of out-of-cell exercise (yard). We are in our cells 24 hrs. a day, 6 days a week. We are being excessively confined in our cells. We are still not allowed to participate in any educational programs. Our mail is not being picked up or passed out 5 days a week, as they are supposed to. We don’t see any end to this indefinite isolation/solitary confinement. Due to these issues and more, we are going to go on hunger strike once again. *We will be declaring a hunger strike on September 23, 2015. *We will feel very thankful for your help in spreading the word. *Our core demands are:* We demand an end to long term solitary confinement. We demand minimum due process at Administrative Detention Review Hearings by providing inmates with written reasons, including new information relied upon, for Committee’s decision for our continued placement in A.D. and be allowed to grieve all adverse decisions. As it stands, the basis of the Committee’s votes are kept secret. We demand more access to outside recreation for the sake of our physical and mental health. As it stands, we are confined indefinitely to these cages for 6 days out of the week, with the exception of one 5 hour day. This is unbearable. We demand that meaningful educational programs be implemented to encourage our mental stability, rehabilitation, and social development for the sake of ourselves and our communities that we will one day return to. We demand access to more visiting privileges. For most of our families traveling to Menard is like traveling to another state. Considering the distance, 2 hour visits behind plexiglass is insufficient. We should be allowed 5 or 6 hours. Moreover, our family members, including inmates, should be provided the human dignity and decency to purchase food items and refreshments from vending machines after traveling such great distances. This would benefit one’s social development, as well as benefit prison staff environment. We ask the public’s help by calling the warden, the Director of the Illinois Department of Corrections, and the Governor on September 23, 2015, and so forth, to check on our welfare. Warden Kimberly Butler, 618-826-5071 Menard Correctional Center 711 Kaskaskia Street Menard, IL 62259 Director John Baldwin, 217-558-2200 Illinois Department of Corrections 1301 Concordia Court P. O. Box 19277 Springfield, IL 52794-9277 Governor Bruce Rauner, 217-782-0244 Office of the Governor 207 State House Springfield, IL 62706 We will stay on hunger strike as long as possible in order to hopefully bring some change to our conditions. We thank you for any kind of support you can give us.
