Anti-Gold-Mining resistance at Skouries in Chalkidiki, Greece + Sean Swain moved to SOCF Lucasville
Feb. 22, 2015, 12:22 p.m.
This week on The Final Straw, we feature an update from Sean Swain, who's just been moved along with other people in his security level at Ohio State Prison in Youngstown to SOCF Lucasville. Information on his new call-in campaign can be found at: http://seanswain.org/support-sean-resisting-harassment-at-socf/ .

For the majority of the episode, a comrade in Greece has provided us with interviews concerning the resistance to the gold extraction and refining destroying Mt Skouries in Chalkidiki, Greece. The mining and refining are going to line the pockets of the Vancouver-headquartered company called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eldorado_Gold">Eldorado Gold Corporation</a>. Resistance to this mining in Northeastern Greece has been in it's current phase since 2006.
First, we'll hear portions of our friend's conversation with a young activist and her mother at a blockade on Skouries about some of the economic alternatives locals are trying to create to remove reliance on mining jobs that destroy their land, air and water. They also speak about the resistance as it's developed over the years and some of the methods Eldorado Gold Corp has been trying to implement to drain the water-table in the mountain in order to aid the mining process.
Next, our friend speaks with Heli and a friend about more of the history of resistance to the mining there, changes in organizing that've occurred, waves of repression by the Greek State. They'll also touch briefly on expectations (or the lack thereof) among the residents of that region of the current leftist Syriza regime's political will to stop the destruction of the environment around Skoures. The Syriza Party's Energy Minister, Panagiotis Lafazanis, has pledged to do everything it can within the law to block the Skouries mining by Eldorado Gold Corp.

This week in The Q we take on the much appreciated 2010 Welsch Indie film SUBMARINE from director Richard Ayoade, Starring Craig Roberts, Yasmin Paige and Noah Taylor. Set in the seaside town of Swansea, Submarine explores the world of Oliver Tate, the dryly precocious, soon-to-be-fifteen-year-old hero of this engagingly offbeat story, lives in the seaside town of Swansea, Wales. He sees himself as a self-styled social scientist, a spy in the baffling adult world surrounding him, and a budding, hormone-driven emotional explorer â in other words,Oliver is stealthily (and perhaps a bit more nervously than heâd ever admit) nosing his way forward through the murky and uniquely perilous waters of adolescence⦠His objectives? Uncovering the secrets behind his parentsâ teetering marriage, unraveling the mystery that is his alluring and equally quirky classmate Jordana hides, losing his virginity and possibly understanding where he fits in among the pansexuals, Zoroastrians, and other mystifying, fascinating beings that inhabit his orbit. All of this plus our Top 3 Movie Dream Sequences.

Chris Kyle's War Is Not My War, Says An American Sniper
Feb. 21, 2015, 3:56 p.m.
Garett Reppenhagen reveals that the US stories about Saddam Hussein being part of 9-11 and having WMD unraveled soon after he was deployed to Iraq.
Rappenhagen differentiates between the drafted soldiers in Vietnam and the career oriented soldiers in Iraq and other countries in this new "war against terrorism." Now, only a small fraction of one percent of Americans serve in the army. This causes a disconnect between the reality of the soldiers fighting in a war and public understanding of that reality.
Rappenhagen believes that US nationalism and patriotism have taken over any sort of real religion. What our enemies were fearing was a war against a way of life--this was more dangerous than talk of religion and Bibles.
A military person might be able to disobey some orders, but a soldier disobeying an order to deploy will face ending up in Leavenworth. Rappenhagen is clear that it takes a lot of moral courage to resist fighting and refers to the resisters seeking asylum in Canada.
If you didn't get "a kill" in Iraq, you were often deemed a lesser man. There is enormous amount of peer pressure to compete with each other and constantly be harder and better than other soldiers. "They'll use any sort of way to insult you or degrade you to try to break you down and build you up the way they want it."
"African Liberation Month: The Time Has Come" says Norman Otis Richmond
Feb. 21, 2015, 3:49 p.m.
Richmond breaks down the lie that Blacks were "given" Black History Month by describing the work of Black activists such as Dr. Carter G. Woodson, who focused on the importance of African history and launched the Negro History Week (1926) which grew into Black History Month (1976). Woodson also wrote the seminal book The Miseducation of the Negro. It was Carter's idea to study a part of Black history for a year and then write about it during the Black History month.
The interview turns to Nina Simone, whom Richmond respected and believed stood for something (justice, liberation, revolution) in her music and in her support for Malcolm X and Martin Luther King in Selma. She is an historical figure and the revolutionary message of her music will live on forever.
