Elliott Norse: "Trawling the Ocean Floor"

Once, fishes as big as turkeys and sheep swam the seas. Now, most of their few remaining descendants would fit into a frying pan. Dr. Elliot A. Norse, president of the Marine Biology Conservation Institute in Redmond, Washington, believes that this radical reduction in the size and number of the world’s fishes comes not only from over fishing, the catching of fish at a faster rate than they can breed, but also from bottom trawling. Dr. Norse writes that bottom trawling crushes, buries, and exposes marine creatures like lobsters, crustaceans, clams, corals and sponges that live on or in the seabed, damaging or killing them. In August of 1999, Dr. Norse visited with Radio Curious to discuss the effects of bottom trawling, how and where it’s done, and some of the concerns and causes of global warming and the effects it has on the oceans. Elliott Norse recommends “The Song of the Dodo: Island Biogeography in an Age of Extinction” by David Quammen. Originally Broadcast: November 27, 1998

Standing In the Way of Genocide

A discussion between 5 participants in a civil resistance action carried out on Oct. 3rd, 2025. Port Elizabeth, the third largest port in the US, is a major transshipment point for companies such as Maersk and Zim, whose trucks carry weapons bound for Israel. In doing so these companies support and enable Israel’s ongoing genocide, which according to Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur for Palestine, has claimed at least 680,000 lives, most of them innocent women and children. An autonomous group of about 100 activists stopped truck traffic for about an hour as they stood on a major road in Port Elizabeth with banners such as “Stop Sending Weapons to a Genocide.” It was a peaceful act in solidarity with the people of Gaza, the Global Sumud Flotilla, and port shutdowns across the world, most notably in Italy. Supplying these weapons for Israel’s genocide is a blatant violation of the U.S. War Crimes Act, the Leahy Law, the Foreign Assistance Act, the Arms Export Control Act, and the Genocide Convention Implementation Act. To prevent unlawful weapons shipments, protestors peacefully came to uphold all U.S. and international laws against genocide. The discussion, which took place in Ithaca, NY eight days later on Oct. 11th, 2025, was led by Mary Anne Grady Flores, who avoided arrest at the Port Elizabeth action because she was the designated police liaison. The other participants, all of whom were arrested at the action, were Daniel Creamer, Mark Scibilia-Carver, and two of Mary Anne’s sisters, Ellen Grady and Teresa Berrigan Grady. After the intro, Mary Anne Grady Flores reads a short essay written specifically for this program by Eric Cheyfitz, the Ernest I. White Professor of American Studies and Humane Letters at Cornell University. The essay, titled “Seeds of Gaza”, provides background information on the events leading to the genocide. Next is a short audio clip from Drop Site News, compiled from people on the scene of the civil resistance action in Port Elizabeth, NJ on Oct. 3rd, 2025, and then the discussion in Ithaca. https://www.dropsitenews.com

“Honoring Indigenous Excellence: James Parker Shield and the Native American Hall of Fame” Part 1

“Honoring Indigenous Excellence: James Parker Shield and the Native American Hall of Fame” Part 1 Today get ready for part 1 with James Parker Shield, founder and CEO of the National Native American Hall of Fame. A proud Little Shell Chippewa, Shield has dedicated his life to honoring Indigenous excellence—transforming a vision into a national institution celebrating Native leaders, artists, and trailblazers. From journalism and public service to building the Hall of Fame, he continues to uplift stories that inspire Native communities across the country. ABOUT JAMES Jesse Flores is an accomplished music industry executive with more than two decades of experience in artist development, label relations, and business strategy. He currently serves as Vice President of Artist and Label Partnerships at Intercept Music, where he leads initiatives to empower independent musicians and labels through innovative distribution, marketing, and monetization tools. Flores brings a forward-thinking approach to connecting artists with the digital resources they need to thrive in today’s evolving music landscape. Before joining Intercept Music, Jesse held key positions with Virgin Music Group, Lyric Financial, EMI/Capitol, and UMG/PolyGram, where he built a reputation for bridging creative talent and business opportunity. Over his career, he’s collaborated with major artists including Stephen Marley, DJ Premier, Ice Cube, Tyrese, and E-40. A passionate advocate for artist empowerment, Jesse continues to shape new pathways for independent creators—helping them grow their audiences, own their work, and build sustainable careers in the global music industry. ABOUT THE AMERICAN INDIAN HALL OF FAME “For many years, I felt there were various resources and facilities for learning about Native Americans from the “old times,” it is difficult to find an accurate and comprehensive source to learn about more contemporary Native Americans. America and its Native American people need a place to honor and commemorate the significant contributions and achievements of more recent historical and contemporary Native Americans. The major focus of the Hall of Fame will be from the Civil War period up until the present day. This time frame was chosen because the Civil War was a milestone event in Native American history in a unique and “modern” sense because Natives fought on both sides of that national conflict. The National Native American Hall of Fame will help people understand how Native Americans overcame the hopelessness of early reservations, and the trauma of Indian boarding schools, poverty, discrimination, racism, and the cultural divide to not only adapt but, in many instances, achieve greatness,” states Shield.

TWIP-251019

Today’s episode is not just a broadcast. It’s a reckoning. It’s a memorial. It’s a refusal to forget. We begin with the names of journalists—those who stood between the world and the abyss, armed only with cameras, microphones, and the audacity to document genocide. Saleh Aljafarawi. Mohammad Al-Salhi. Ibrahim Lafi. Saeed Al-Taweel. Salam Mema. Roshdi Sarraj. Samer Abudaqa. Mohammed Qreiqeh. Ismail Alghool. And the living witness: Wael Al-Dahdouh. Each of them carried more than press credentials. They carried the weight of a nation’s memory. They filmed through tears, broadcast through rubble, and wrote through grief. They were not collateral damage. They were targeted. Because truth in Gaza is dangerous. And those who tell it are hunted. Their stories are not just tragic. They are sacred. But this episode is not only about journalists. It’s about every Palestinian who has been martyred under occupation. Doctors who died treating the wounded. Teachers who taught under drones. Mothers who whispered prayers in the rubble. Children who never got to grow old. It’s about the land that mourns them. The sky that cries them. The sun that rises with their names. It’s about the lie of “moral warfare.” The myth of “precision.” The silence of the world. And it’s about the truth we carry forward—unapologetically, urgently, and with love. You’ll hear a reflection today. A personal reckoning. A meditation on grief, belonging, and resistance. It’s not polished. It’s not detached. It’s not polite. It’s raw. It’s rooted. It’s Palestinian. Because when the world forgets, we remember. When the world turns away, we speak. And when the world asks, “Why do you still resist?”—we answer: Because we never left. Because we belong. Because it’s called Palestine.
