University of Chicago Students Demand Divestment from Israel and End to Israeli Barbaism

University of Chicago students set an encampment April 29th. It was proceeded by months of protests and demonstrations demanding a public statement from the university on a ceasefire and divestment from any investments its endowment had in Israel. There was a strong sense of solidarity among Muslim, Christian and Jewish students that I saw as I walked around the encampment. Earlier there had been a presentation at which a compairison of the University's displacement of low income and black residents from the communities surrounding Hyde Park and Israel's colonial occupation of Palestine. Students were being harassed by a few crazed supporters of Israel who were held off with nonviolent deescalation techniques. Encampment policy of not talking to cops or press was in force. I spoke with two people there in solidarity who shared thoughts on the leadership demonstrated by the students and their commitment to challenge their University's and Governments complicity in the genocide being conducted by Israel in Gaza.

Sonic Café #389/The Great Generational Divide

Sonic Café, that’s The Strokes from 2001, thanks for dropping by our little radio café, I’m Scott Clark and this is episode 389. So what’s going on with all of this generational bickering anyway? The Baby Boomers are upset with the Millennials, and the Millennials don’t like Gen Z, and nobody even remembers Gen X. It’s all a bit confusing, but not to worry because comedian Karen Morgan is here to explain it all to us, Gen X in particular, even though ahh nobody remembers them. So plan to takes notes. Our music mix covers 49 years and includes a track from X-Ray Spex from the 1978 Germ Free Adolescents release, also 2020 music from Sir Paul McCartney. From 1971 we’ll spin Taj Mahal, who wants to buy you a Chevrolet, the Black Crowes and more, including another Sonic Café twin spin. Listen for Kids in America, the 1981 Kim Wilde original followed by Billy Joe Armstrong’s 2020 re-imaging of the tune, both after the bottom of the hour, as the Sonic Café presents the Great Generational Divide, this time from way out here on the left coast. Here’s Richard Hell & The Voidoids. This is Blank Generation, and we’re the Sonic Café.

This week on the Global Research News Hour, as we commemorate NAKBA Day, we take a look at what motivates Israel’s over the top cruelty in their campaign against Hamas carried out for the most part on Palestinian Women and children and the response of university students and people around the world who are determined such actions are not made in their name. In our first half hour we speak to journalist and film maker Robert Inlakesh about the truth and lies about the protest encampments springing up everywhere, and about the mission of attacking the heavily populated Rafah at the end of its murderous campaign across the strip. In our second half hour, we speak with lawyer, activist and journalist Dimitri Lascaris about the Freedom Flotilla with aid for the desperate masses in Gaza. Finally, we have a chat with geopolitical analyst and commentator Mike Whitney about the behaviour of Israel toward the Palestinian people having a root in the racist imperialist drive of the West in the late nineteenth century.

Professor Richard Wolff: Freedom of Speech, Gaza and students' right to protest

Within a week, in early May of 2024, the renowned professor of economics put out two commentaries on his Wolff Responds podcast that break the mainstream media taboo, or misinformation, on the responses by university administrators and police to campus opposition to the war on Gaza. Richard Wolff is a professor emeritus of economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and a visiting professor in the graduate program in international affairs of the New School in New York City. This is also a personal response by Prof. Wolff to the extraordinary harsh actions by the New School administrators to the pro-Palestinian encampments at the university. They called the New York City police who arrested 43 people. Six days later, Professor Wolff published another commentary on his podcast, entitled: Antisemitism vs Antizionism, Biden, Gaza and Universities responses. As this podcast was being recorded on May 8, 2024, faculty at the New School became the first in the nation to launch their own pro-Palestine encampment in the New School University Center building on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. Please follow the work of Professor Richard Wolff on Youtube podcasts under the title Wolff Responds or his weekly Democracy at Work lectures. DATE: May 2 and 8, 2024 LOCATION: New York City
