Against The Death Penalty: Wrongful Conviction & Exoneration
with
Jeffrey Deskovic, exoneree, The Jeffrey Deskovic Foundation for Justice
Exoneration has been incredibly important for those who oppose capital punishment since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976, 138 death row inmates have had their convictions overturned. Building Bridges highlights The Jeffrey Deskovic Foundation For Justice that came into being for the prevention and eradication of wrongful convictions, as the result of its founder's own wrongful conviction for rape and murder at age 16. At 33 years of age Jeff was exonerated and left prison, with a mission to prevent what happened to him from happening to others.

New Format Episode 5, Part 4 - The Assassination of President Edwards and President Spitzer
Jan. 26, 2013, 8:09 a.m.
Welcome to the last part of this long Episode, Part 4; the Assassination of two presidential hopefuls who were not well liked by the Democractic Establishment; out of all the parts produced this one is my least favorite (to be honest), I didn't have the time to conduct the research I wanted to. Nonetheless the outcome was good enough to be published. In hindsight I should have included Howard Dean also! I hope you enjoy.

Out of the Woods - Show #147 1-25-13
Jan. 25, 2013, 9:43 p.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, but I try to keep them approximately 30 minutes in most cases.
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, 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
Economic crisis in Europe fuels rise of radical right
Jan. 25, 2013, 8:05 p.m.
In the last election, the far right party Golden Dawn in Greece won 18 seats in the national government, putting it in third place in terms of popular support. This is one example of the potential for a surge of the radical right in countries that are hard hit by the economic slump. Dr. Oliver Schmidtke is director at the Centre for Global Studies at the University of Victoria.
Women's earnings in BC less than national average
Jan. 25, 2013, 7:52 p.m.
A recent report finds that women in BC not only earn less than men but also earn less than women in other parts of Canada. Marjorie Griffin Cohen is author of the report. She says public policy in BC has undermined the needs of workers in the mistaken belief that a low-wage policy will be best for the economy. Marjorie Griffin Cohen is an economist and SFU Professor of Political Science and Gender, Sexuality and Womenâs Studies.

Jan. 25, 2013, 7:05 p.m.
Dr. Jim Salinger, New Zealand climate scientist, IPCC author, and recent visiting professor at Stanford talks about how a changing climate contributes to both increased severity and frequency of extreme weather events such as Superstorm Sandy. Matt Chalmers, a JD student at UC Davis joins us live over the phone to discuss how the inertia of U.S. government effectively hinders the timely development of policies for climate change mitigation, and to explore whether technological progress and economic growth can solve the problem they took part in creating.

This was far and away the most exciting meeting that I have ever attended in all of my years of environmental protection work. Things are very different now. The people have come to a point where they are no longer willing to accept the abuses of the corporate/government culture. The people of Akwesasne are strong and good. They spoke about the relationship that exists between First Nations people and the Earth. They spoke about the environmental genocide that is taking place on the Akwesasne Reserve. They demanded full clean-up of the industrial contaminants that were released by ALCOA into the Grasse River and the Massena Power Canal.
Everyone on Earth should listen to what the people of Akwesasne said to ALCOA and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on the evening of November 15, 2012. These were words of love of the Earth, courage, honor and determination. Once people have heard these words, they should contact the Onkwehonwe of Akwesasne and endeavor to assist with the great work of bringing an end to the environmental genocide. The Onkwehonwe can be reached by visiting the website named below.
