"Wilkerson, Isabel — America's Great Migration: 1915-1970 Part Two"
March 10, 2021, 4:18 p.m.
In part 2 of our conversation with Pulitzer Prize winner, Isabel Wilkerson, author of âThe Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of Americaâs Great Migration,â we continue our discussion of the migration of almost six million black American citizens from the south to northern and western cities between the years of 1915 and 1970. Her book tells the untold experiences of the African-Americans who fled the south over three generations.
Wilkerson interviewed more than 1,000 people for her book. She is the first black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize and is a recipient of the George Polk Award and a John Simon Guggenheim Fellow. Her parents were part of the great migration, journeying from Georgia and southern Virginia to Washington D.C.
The book Isabel Wilkerson recommends is âThe Ark of Justice,â by Kevin Boyle.

Who is Counting - Marilyn Waring on Sex, Lies and Global Economics - ONE of TWO
March 9, 2021, 1:52 p.m.
Marilyn Waringâs work and intriguing life is described in a documentary film by Terre Nash. Iâm bringing back the soundtrack of this film to support a debate on the unquestioned need for economic growth at all cost and on what course to take after the end of the Covid Epidemic.
At age 22 (in 1974) Marilyn Waring became the youngest member of the New Zealand Parliament. She chaired the prestigious Public Expenditures Committee and became familiar with the Gross Domestic Product system and decided to disclose its pathologies in a film, her teachings at AUT University in Auckland and really her life as a feminist economist. The film, âWhoâs Countingâ traces her quest to explore how the fate of women and of the earth are irrevocably tied up with the deadly pursuit of economic growth.
Marilyn Waring was shocked and dismayed when she learned that all countries that are members of the UN are forced to keep their books and design their budgets under the system of National Income Accounting. This GDP system counts only cash transactions in the market and recognizes no value other than money. This means there is no value to peace and to the preservation of the environment.
Megan Milliken Biven proposes an Abandoned Well Administration
March 9, 2021, 12:37 p.m.
For over a hundred years, American land and waters have been tapped for that dark and viscous substance that has propelled our economy and generated the climate crisis. But oil wells don't last forever, and now approximately 3 million defunct oil and gas rigs sit idle in states like Oklahoma, Texas, Pennsylvania, and others. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to energy market analyst Megan Milliken Biven about her lemons-to-lemonade idea for the abandoned equipment and the people who used to work on them. She proposes a new federal agency that will oversee the millions of obsolete wells, many of which are seeping toxic stuff. We discuss the existing problem, outline the concept of an Abandoned Well Administration, and discuss folding oil & gas workers right into the machinery of a Green New Deal economy.
America's Canadian Parliament Slanders China, Citing US Administrations
March 9, 2021, 10:59 a.m.
Gowans uses logic and reason to clarify the "genocide" accusations against China. Much of the information comes from Adrian Zenz, whose only mention of the word is expressed tentatively at the end of his report: his document does not conclusively state that China is enacting genocidal measures. Those who claim genocide are relying on the flimsy pretext of having two U.S. administrations claim that it has taken place. Apparently, the word of U.S. ruling parties is the same as scientific truth.
Who is this Adrian Zenz who has captivated our Parliament, including the NDP? Turns out he is a fundamentalist Christian who views feminists and homosexuals as abominations against God. He believes that abortion is genocide. And he is the 'expert' Parliament turns to about birth rates in China.
Zenz is also a Senior Fellow at the U.S.-created "Victims of Communism" foundation, a propaganda organization that follows in the footsteps of the old fascist international, seeking to 'rid the world of the false hope of Marxism.' This foundation has written that, in light of socialism's growing appeal, it will more actively propagandize to "discredit" socialism.
Gowans walks us through the various foundations and think-tankery from which this anti-China campaign originated. U.S. analysts like Paul Fuller emphasized the likelihood of the U.S. playing the "Uyghur card" as an option if relations deteriorated with China. At the base of this deterioriation is an economic clash, which the U.S. portrays as a 'clash of values.' The strategy is to use a "human rights" narrative to rally support against China.
Taylor and Gowans then demolish another shameful Globe and Mail article that tried to paint a subsidized jobs program in China as "genocide." It's a jumble of frightening words that are put together in no logical order. China's internal migration for jobs and economic-development programs are by-and-large more humane than what we do, extracting migrant labour from the periphery in a painful and chaotic fashion. But, like Zenz, the Globe and Mail is on a 'mission from God,' so we will suffer their white-saviour Crusading for some time.

The encyclopedia will answer Britain. The first country that was free, truly free, was Haiti. It abolished slavery in 1804, and has since been fighting to defend its right to self governance. In this interview we speak about the history of oppression and repression of Haiti poor majority. The face of imperialism in the 21st century.
