In late-April, the Waterloo Public Interest Research Group at the University of Waterloo organized a conference titled "(En)gendering Resistance: Exploring the possibilities of gender, resistance and militancy." Concluding the conference was a keynote presentation by Jackie Wang, who spoke on the concept of "revolutionary loneliness", referring to the seemingly inevitably traumatizing and alienating effects of participating in revolutionary struggle, and to the sense of loneliness that the experience of gendered and racialized forms of suffering can produce. Historically, revolutionary movements have based their politics on (implicitly) masculine and white positions and thus fail to eradicate social alienation. This presentation (a bit over an hour long) explores the liberation narratives of militant women and gender-variant revolutionaries such as Assata Shakur, Sylvia Rivera, Safiya Bukhari, Yuri Kochiyama, Marilyn Buck, Susanna Ronconi, and more.
Recapping a month of resistance to SWN in Elsipogtog
July 4, 2013, 10:13 p.m.
Regarding the month of resistance to SWN Resources in the fight against fracking at Elsipogtog, Mi'kma'ki territory (Kent County, NB), since the Sacred Fire was lit.
The piece contains a description. Briefly, it was produced on July 1st and aired on CKDU 88.1 on From the Margins (Mondays at 8pm). It contains a number of voices of people involved in the struggle; and some key political actors; all mixed into an interview with journalist Miles Howe (on site the last month) recapping the last month of resistance.
By now, Miles has been arrested and released (July 4th), clearly in an attempt to disrupt the steady stream of investigative and documentary coverage he has provided through the HMC.

Richmond Region Energy Alliance
July 3, 2013, 9:31 a.m.
The Richmond Region Energy Alliance is one of 40 initiatives across the US funded by the Department of Energy to provide comprehensive resources for home energy improvement. RREA provides access to licensed energy assessors who perform home audits, to contractors who can complete the renovations, to rebates, loans and other financing options, and to quality-assurance follow-up assessments from EarthCraft. The energy audit is invaluable for identifying a home's infrastructural weaknesses (common culprits are inadequate insulation and duct leakage) and provides homeowners the information they need to focus repairs where they're needed most. RREA hopes to facilitate livable comfort, lower energy bills, promote energy efficiency, and bolster local economies, and they especially service older homes that predate building codes and first-time homeowners who receive egregious energy bills.

John Barbour was a major talk show host in the 1960s in Los Angeles. He had the confidence and connections to be able to interview Jim Garrison, New Orleans District Attorney, when he filed charges against Clay Shaw, et al, for the JFK assassination. The interview was never aired, and Barbour was fired when he booked Garrison for his show.
A few years later Barbour was the host of top rated TV show "Real People", and again he attempted to book Jim Garrison. The show was cancelled and Barbour again fired.
Finally, in 1992, Barbour produced and directed the award winning film "The Jim Garrison Tapes". This time there was coverage, in other nations. It has never aired on a public television station in the United States.
Reality Sandwich host Paul Kangas interviews John Barbour in this episode.
July 3, 2013, 7:19 a.m.
This episode of Reality Sandwich is a few weeks after the first election of Bill Clinton, and also shortly after the release of Spike Lee's movie "Malcolm X". Host Paul Kangas ties the early smears of President Clinton to the assassination of Malcolm.
The murder of President Kennedy was on the lips of Malcolm X just weeks after JFK was killed. The quote led to the split in the Nation of Islam, and Malcolm's widened perspective.
Educating President Clinton is also a topic of this episode. The new president is being beleagered with slanders before inauguration. Kangas urges protection as well as activism to keep Clinton adhering to his campaign promises.
The show ends with a call for a new calender, based upon a rejection of the old ways and a view to the future.

Alex Trembath on Obama's Climate Change Speech
July 2, 2013, 6:32 p.m.
Did you see how they covered President Obamaâs recent big environmental speech on the Sunday political talk shows? No? Thatâs because none of the Sunday morning shows discussed it at all. In spite of its paltry coverage on the major networks, the speech is being heralded by some environmentalists as historical, while others are critiquing the president for not going far enough. This week on Sea Change Radio, we do our part to make up for the networksâ deficient analysis of this important speech by talking with Alex Trembath of the Breakthrough Institute. The Breakthrough Institute is an American think tank interested in âmodernizing environmentalism for the 21st century.â While their positions on nuclear power and natural gas have raised controversy in environmental circles, they are a leading voice on progressive ecological policy and how the government can advance innovation that promotes a healthy planet.

Disturbing the ether for over fifteen years now, the Chill Room subverts through misdirection and through fulfilling audio fantasy. Providing moment to moment satisfaction of the listener's itch the very floor below can be revealed as insubstantial and the rug can be pulled out from under you and then you'd fly through the bug zapped summer night to land in mental snow, naked and alone. Or something secretly projected into your synapses like that. First new collage posted in a long time, too.
