TBR 220603 - The Dictatorship of the Refrigerator*
Jan. 12, 2024, 8:38 p.m.
This week’s archive radio show starts off with a lesson on how to be an activist! (It’s a fun job — but somebody’s gotta do it!) Then, we reveal how Americans are educated just enough to not realize how uneducated they actually are. After that, we point out that humans have an amazing ability to accept insanity as normal when insanity becomes normalized — especially since if they ever rationally faced the insanity then they would probably go insane. Next, we fulfill our duty to utterly terrify you by pointing out how with recent advances in technology, then very soon the 1% may not need us to build their world for them any longer. (And you know their usual policy toward what they consider to be ‘useless mouths’ — i.e. someone that does not produce profit for them.)
Then, for the feature piece this week, we describe how David Patraeus — ex-head of the CIA — came right out and admitted that they are going to start using the ‘smart grid’ and ‘smart appliances’ to monitor us. Now your refrigerator will be spying on you right along with your phone, your computer, your car, and your alarm system, etc.
There will soon be nowhere that is safe.

Clarina Nichols portrayed by Eickhoff Diane – "The Revolutionary Heart of Clarina Nichols"
Jan. 12, 2024, 8:06 a.m.
Originally Broadcast: January 13, 2007
Revolutionary Heart, The Life of Clarina Nichols and the Pioneering Crusade for Women’s Rights
The life of Clarina Nichols and her work in the early women’s rights movement of the United States has been greatly overlooked. As one of the country’s first female newspaper editors and stump speakers, Clarina Nichols spoke out for temperance, abolition and women’s rights at a time when doing so could get a woman killed. Unlike other activists, she personally experienced some of the cruelest sufferings that a married woman of her day could know. In her pursuit for justice she traveled westward facing all of the challenges of being a single mother and a women’s rights activist of her day with good humor and resourcefulness. Clarina Nichols was portrayed by Diane Eickhoff in this Chautauquan style interview. We began when I asked Clarina about her childhood.

Clarina Nichols recommends “The Sexes Throughout Nature (Pioneers of the woman’s movement),” by Antoinette Louisa Brown Blackwell.

Eric Kirk and David Frank discuss the politics of the day.
Jan. 11, 2024, 7:19 p.m.
The Palestinian narrative and resistance is being silenced throughout the country by pressure from the Israeli lobby, which is spending literally millions of dollars to stop and prevent criticism of Israel. The conflation of antisemitism with criticism of Israel, the threatened withdrawal of financial support, the cancellation of pro-Palestinian events and organizing, are just some of the tools being used to silence the Palestinian resistance. The Nation magazine put together today’s forum to sound the alarm of this staggeringly organized and well financed program to censor Palestinian voices and events that dare to challenge occupation, apartheid, and colonization of their homeland. The event was 12-14-2023: “Can We Talk About Palestine?” Panelists Viet Thanh Nguyen, Mohammed el-Kurd, Radhika Sainath and Nathan Thrall discussed free speech, journalism, and censorship in a conversation moderated by D. D. Guttenplan and hosted by Katrina vanden Heuvel.

America plays a crooked game in Gaza
Jan. 10, 2024, 4:38 a.m.
Phil Taylor and Phil Conlon discuss the current situation in West Asia: the U.S. arsonist is claiming to be the fireman. If there is to be a durable solution, it has to involve other great powers and neighboring states.
But the US is determined to assert its role as the "indispensable" hegemon.
It's important not to learn about the region "upside-down" by listening to U.S. media. Phil and Phil also discuss Israel's abuse of the term "right to defend itself."
They also talk about the dangerous emerging discrimination against students from China. This is xenophobic, and is adding to the poisonous trend targeting Chinese-Canadians.

Fred Gray – Civil Rights Attorney for Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, TUC Archive
Jan. 9, 2024, 11:34 p.m.
Rosa Parks was only Fred Gray’s second case, after Claudette Colvin, a teenager, who nine months earlier had been the first to refuse to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus and in turn inspired Rosa Parks.
When Rosa Parks was arrested in 1955 for violating the segregated seating ordinance, 26-year-old Martin Luther King was chosen to lead the Montgomery Bus Boycott, and 24-year-old Fred Gray also became his and the movement’s lawyer. Gray’s legal victory in the federal courts ended the boycott 381 days later.
Fred Gray won scores of civil rights cases in education, voting rights, transportation, and health. He represented the Freedom Riders, the Selma-to-Montgomery marchers, and the victims of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.
It was a Republican and former employee of the United States Public Health Service, Peter Buxtun, who blew the whistle on the Tuskegee study. Poor black sharecroppers were led to believe they were being treated, while in reality the study recorded the progression of untreated Syphilis. In 2009 Buxtun was the events coordinator for the Republican Roundtable. He invited Fred Gray to speak – and allowed TUC Radio to attend and record the event.
