BSTF 905 - The Firesign Theatre
March 18, 2012, 9:43 a.m.
Tonight's BSTF is a full-body immersion in the seminal works of the Firesign Theatre, with a tribute to Peter Bergman. I chose not to play obscurities-- Stang will be taking care of that on his own tribute show--rather, my focus tonight is on those seminal albums that launched me on the path of Firesign worship all those decades ago. My choices of material are the first and last cuts on the non-Nick Danger side of HOW CAN YOU BE IN TWO PLACES AT ONCE ("Antelope Freeway" and "We're Bringing the War Back Home"), with I THINK WE'RE ALL BOZOS ON THIS BUS sandwiched in the middle. My copy of BOZOS was so crackly I've spent the past two nights taking out the pops for five and six hours at a time--but it's worth it to guarantee the fidelity of these masterpieces. Once you hear them begin to unreel, those who soaked in this back then will feel their earworms stir from their too-long coiled slumber--and those who are hearing this for the first time--?
You lucky, lucky sumbitches, you. Truly.

Hundreds Rally Against Prison Industrial Complex And Mass Incarceration at the Lincoln Correctional Facility in West Harlem -
THE NEW JIM CROW!
The Occupy Wall Street Prisoner Solidarity Subcommittee along with hundreds of allies heeded Occupy Oakland's call to action and marched in solidarity with
Pelican Bay prisoner's hunger strike protest, with brothers and sisters who are dispossessed by the criminal INJUSTICE system, with immigrant detainees and with political prisoners everywhere. They raised their voices against the growth of the privatization of the prison system and mass incarceration - the New Jim Crow. The characterization of the system of mass incarceration as the New Jim Crow raises the racist nature of the prison system, pointing out that between 1970 and 1995, the jailing of African Americans increased seven fold. African Americans make up 12% of the U.S. population - and 53% of the nation's prison population. There are more African Americans enslaved under correctional control today - in prison or jail; on probation or parole - than there were in 1850.

Are we becoming more civilized?
March 16, 2012, 5:51 p.m.
Prof. Edward S. Herman dissects Stephen Pinker's book, "The Better Angels of our Nature," which suggests that humanity is progressing towards more civilized behaviour. Herman believes that the book is a gift to the ruling class.
At a time when a sitting U.S. President is saying that he can do anything he likes, including assassinating Americans, Herman is skeptical that America is becoming a kinder and gentler nation.
Why do we have a Congress that seems to think it is fun to have a major war in the Middle East? Chalmers Johnson has suggested that the institution of the military has taken over American society. As the Taylor Report states, "it's an amazing scene that so many ugly things have been institutionalized."
