We are blessed to be able to, once again, present a Tu Bishvat/New Year of the Trees episode. We are late posting this show as it is now a few weeks from the originally broadcast date on the 15th of Shvat, but at any moment this holiday can serve to remind us, daily, of the possibilities for meaningful connections with Trees, fruits, the Seasons, and the world that surrounds us.
There is a lot of work to be done reclaiming this meaningful holiday from those who have used it to justify colonialism, displacement, and erasure of Palestinian histories. Happily, we are able to feature many voices and texts that help us with reclamation by drawing meaning and inspiration from deep within the roots of Jewish life. Tune-in to hear a reading from Kingston author Leanne Liebermanâs new young adult novel Book of Trees; an update on displacement and resistance in the Negev; preparations and readings from our Kabbalistic Tu Bishvat Seder; plus, other radio waves turned to branches turned to more beautiful metaphors.
Music from Eekwol ft. Mass and Flipdabird (âThe Treeâ) and Testament (âGeneration Zâ).

On the second half of todayâs program, as promised, we will bring you more about the mayoral candidates standing for election here in Chicago; this time with audio from the Chicago Teachers Unionâs mayoral forum. But given the on-going and rapidly evolving events in Egypt, and the reaction to those events here in Chicago, we will devote the first half of todayâs program to that topic again this week. Will have audio from a second rally in solidarity with the people of Egypt held last Friday and excerpts from a very interesting event that was held Friday night around a new book just published entitled The People Reloaded: The Green Movement and the Struggle for Iran's Future. The panel at that event included a number of prominent Middle East scholars and they discussed not only the reform movement in Iran called the Green Movement which burst on to the scene in June 2009, but also the developments in Egypt and Tunisia and their relationship to the situation in Iran.
