Out of the Woods - Show #252 - 2-6-15

Feb. 4, 2015, 5:12 a.m.
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

Feb. 3, 2015, 11:42 p.m.
We talk with Edward Baptist about The Half Has Never Been Told: Slavery and the Making of American Capitalism. From intimate slave narratives & other sources, the book shows how the expansion of slavery drove the evolution & modernization of the US, making the South a cotton empire, and the US a global capitalist power. Through forced migration and torture, slave owners extracted continual increases in production from enslaved African Americans to give the US control of the world cotton market.

How the West Caused the Crisis in Ukraine - Part THREE: John Mearsheimer - Q&A

Feb. 3, 2015, 6:57 p.m.
This is an urgent appeal to pay attention to the crisis in Ukraine where the two largest nuclear powers, the US and Russia are in direct and escalating confrontation. John Mearsheimer is Professor of Political Science and the co-director of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago. Mearsheimer states emphatically that in the prevailing wisdom in the West, the Ukraine crisis is blamed almost entirely on Russian aggression. But this account is wrong says Mearsheimer: The United States and its European allies share most of the responsibility for the crisis. Questions in this Q & A period range from who engineered the February 2014 Coup in Ukraine, to what role the Neo-Nazis play.



Bob Marshall: Louisiana Encroachment, Pt. I

Feb. 3, 2015, 6:35 p.m.
With so much focus on the BP oil spill and the havoc it has wrought on the Gulf Coast, it's easy to overlook the broader, more long-term environmental dilemma that serves as the backdrop for that catastrophe: Louisiana's coastline is shrinking at an alarming rate. This week on Sea Change Radio, we welcome Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Bob Marshall of the New Orleans-based The Lens. In conjunction with Pro Publica, The Lens recently published Marshall's in-depth piece on Louisiana's imperiled shores. In the first part of our two-part discussion, Marshall recounts the history of the region's struggle to keep dry, and delves into the reasons why human efforts to harness Mother Nature so often have gone awry.

The One I Love

Feb. 1, 2015, 8:59 p.m.
This week in the Q we take on what may or MAY NOT be a Mummblecore film when we jump into THE ONE I LOVE from first time director Charlie McDowell, starring Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss… Here’s what you have: THE ONE I LOVE is a refreshing and inventive take on monogamy, relationships, and expectations – one that turns the idea of the “Romantic Comedy” on it’s head. Ethan and Sophie, (played by Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss) escape to a country retreat on the advice of their counselor (played by Ted Danson) to save their ailing marriage. But, when an unexpected AND unexplainable discovery presents itself, what begins as a quiet opportunity to reconnect morphs into a head trip into the surreal – one that forces the two to examine themselves, their relationship, and their future in an impossibly unique way. We do our best to straighten this one our for ya – as well as our Top 3 Movie Doppelgangers!

Free Alabama & Mississippi Movements in prisons & updates on Sean Swain

Feb. 1, 2015, 1:25 p.m.
Prior to the main portion of this week's episode, we hear a Sean Swain segment and also Ben Turk comes on to talk about difficulties Sean's currently facing (for instance beginning a hunger strike on Monday due to shenanigans by officials at OSP, where Sean is being held, and possibly JPAY (the company that contracts communication with Ohio's DRC) that have limited his communications again. It is suggested that folks concerned called the boss of the ODRC Lead Council Trevor Clark's boss (Stephen Grey 614 752 1765). More on this can be found here: http://seanswain.org/support-seans-hunger-strike-call-the-odrc-on-monday/ The majority of this week's episode is a conversation with incarcerated members of the Free Alabama & Mississippi Movements. The FAMMC (now including inmates in California as well) is an inmate-drive non-violent, civil disobedience movement with the goal of bettering the situations of prisoners, challenging the profits of prison corporations and departments of correction, ending the impunity of wardens and guards and abolishing the "new slavery" of mass incarceration in the U.S. Due to the poor connection with the guests, some of the audio is difficult to hear, so a transcript should be posted in a few days at ashevillefm.org/the-final-straw where this post can be found and later at thefinalstrawradio.noblogs.org M. Ray (at St. Clair Correctional Facility/SCCF near ) & Kinetic Justice Amun (at Holman/HCF near Atmore, AL), two founders of the Free Alabama Movement along with a member of the Free Mississippi Movement break down mass incarceration, the forms of struggle they're taking (including work stoppages, documentation, outreach and organizing), the economic underpinning to prison labor and prison privatization, issue of sanitation, diet, cost to inmates and family of incarceration, assault and rape in Womens facilities, networking across state borders... M & Kinetic also talk about the recent lockdowns at their facilities. A call-out for folks on the outside to pressure the administrations of these AL facilities to get rid of Warden Davenport (St. Clair, formerly Tutwiler) & Bobby Barrett can be found here: http://prisonbooks.info/2015/01/30/help-stop-the-reign-of-terror-by-alabama-prison-officials/ A post concerning the lockdowns from a few days ago but with information on the death row hunger strikes at Holman facility can be found here: https://denverabc.wordpress.com/2015/01/30/fam-press-release-protest-at-st-clair-prison-in-alabama/ An upcoming way for folks around the country to get involved in this movement is to share the information of the FAMMC with folks on the inside and try to help them to get involved in the movement. Keep up on the upcoming pushes to protest at and outside of prisons around Alabama, Mississippi and more by checking out their facebook and twitter pages. These groups are planning to focus demonstrations and campaigns against McDonalds Restaurants (which use prison labor to make it's burger patties, uniforms and more) and other businesses that are all around us that contract prisoner labor to make a profit. These folks run a weekly (often up to 3 times a week) podcast-radio show called The People's Platform that can be listened to and called into when live or found as archives. More on this show can be found at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/freealabamamovement For more information generally about the FAMM, check out their main website at: http://freealabamamovement.com/ A recent report about the violence (sexual and otherwise) perpetrated by officials against the prisoners at the Juliet Tutwiler Women's Facility in Alabama (at which the current warden of St. Clair, Curtis Davenport, who's overseen this rise of violence was once an official), check out this US DOJ report from January of last year: http://www.justice.gov/crt/about/spl/documents/tutwiler_findings_1-17-14.pdf For the book that M. Ray has written about the goals and background of the Free Alabama Movement: http://freealabamamovement.com/FREE%20ALABAMA%20MOVEMENT.pdf
