The Dogs of Race War: Negro Mercenaries and The Baltimore Uprising
May 2, 2015, 1:15 p.m.
This dispatch concerns the events leading up to and surrounding the recent killing of yet another unarmed American African, Freddie Gray, by 'Peace' Officers in the US city of Baltimore, MD for the crime of 'looking at the officer directly in the eye'. The young man's neck, spine and larynx were crushed and broken en route to police HQ after beating him on the street. (Rumour has it that the man who filmed the initial assault on FG has been detained. As of this posting, we could not confirm this story)
Further discussion looks at the recent video released by Prager University featuring Chloé Simone Valdary (â@cvaldary) titled: 'Don't Judge Blacks Differently' [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xl7Q36V9pg4&feature=youtu.be] which essentially (and done with expert vagueness) demonises White progressive sentiment for the victims of police brutality and the communal anger of many young Africans by equating the violence that occurred during the rioting in Baltimore with the racist terrorism of the Ku Klux Klan (not to be confused with the Katipunan-KKK, the Philippine anti-colonial resistance). EXTRA: Master of the obvious, the late Orson Welles, reads from the written testimony of Brother Isaac Woodward, a decorated World War Two veteran returning home (in uniform) from his service who was blinded by a racist police officer in the US state of Georgia after a dispute with a bigoted bus driver. A sad lesson on how much things have not changed.

This time we leave Deep Politics for a change of pace, and focus instead on earthier matters. Beginning with a reading of Ivan Illich's "Declaration on Soil", we look closely at the source of our food, and the humble and often overlooked organisms without which larger life forms could not live or even digest their food. Philosophy and theory are not forgotten, but this a more practical show than usual, including advice on growing and fermenting food.

Has The Two-Party System Made The U.S. Undemocratic?
May 1, 2015, 2:48 p.m.
Opponents of the two-party system argue that Americans are locked into evaluating every issue through a prism of left and right. They say the country needs to break out of a system that has led to stagnation and a difficulty in finding common ground.
Others counter that, while the two-party system has its faults, it arose organically and has a long history of getting things done in the United States. Supporters say that the system is broad-based and does allow room for independents and third-party candidates.
"There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution." ~ John Adams, 2nd President, Letter to Jonathan Jackson (2 October 1780), "The Works of John Adams", vol 9, p.511.
For the motion is David Brooks and Arianna Huffington. Against the motion is Zev Chafets and P.J. O'Rourke.

A Utopian Libertarian Marketplace
The story of Ross Ulbricht aka the Dread Pirate Roberts is about the Internet age. This guy set up a utopian libertarian marketplace, a place where you could buy and sell almost anything in secret. The pirate created a market with no contracts, no regulations, and really no government interference. The Dread Pirate believed in total economic freedom, but he had to do some very bad things to make it work. Contains language and adult themes that may not be appropriate for children.

Are people finally waking up to Israel's abuse of Palestinians?
April 29, 2015, 1:44 p.m.
This morning we want to take a look at the changing attitudes concerning the Palestinian-Israeli struggle reflected in various segments of the population. There is much to be pessimistic about concerning this issue, but increasingly we are seeing shifting opinions finding expression throughout our society and perhaps some data that can give us a bit of an optimistic take on where we are going on this most complex issue. This morning we have Josh Ruebner of the US Campaign to end the Israeli Occupation, and Columbia University Professor, Rashid Khalidi look at some polling information that give us actual data on how attitudes are indeed shifting on the Palestinian issue. This analysis was presented at a conference titled Capitalizing on Changing Sentiment toward Israeli Aggression, sponsored by American Muslims for Palestine in Chicago, November of 2014.
First up is Josh Ruebner, Policy Director of the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation. Next is Rashid Khalidi, Professor of History at Columbia University.
