#687 -- How to Ruin an Economy

Noam Chomsky concisely and brilliantly dissects the U.S. economic system. He shows that it operates exactly in accord with the principles of neoliberal capitalism. Its function to increase the wealth and power of the plutocratic elite--"the Masters of Mankind," as Adam Smith called them--at the expense of everyone else. And he shows the role of the federal government in enabling and promoting the economic system's antidemocratic aims and results.

Sulaiman Khatib and Penina Eilberg-Schwartz: In This Place Together

As a Palestinian youth, Sulaiman Khatib encountered the occupation in his village and attempted to fight back, stabbing an Israeli. Imprisoned at the age of 14, he began a process of political and spiritual transformation still unfolding today. Together with Penina Eilberg-Schwartz, an American Jew, they wrote a book, "In This Place Together." Khatib shares how his activism became deeply rooted in the belief that we must ground all work—from dialogue to direct action to healing—in recognition of the history and humanity of the other. He reveals how he became convinced that Palestinian freedom can flourish alongside Jewish connection to the land where he was born. ALSO: we discuss the need to gather more support for Rep. Betty McCollum's HB2590, the Defending the Human Rights of Palestinian Children and Families Living Under Israeli Military Occupation Act. The Bill provides that “U.S. assistance intended for Israel’s security must never be used to violate the human rights of Palestinian children, demolish the homes of Palestinian families, or to permanently annex Palestinian lands.” “Peace can only be achieved by respecting human rights, especially the rights of children, and this includes the U.S. taking responsibility for how taxpayer-funded aid is used by recipient countries, Israel included. Congress must stop ignoring the unjust and blatantly cruel mistreatment of Palestinian children and families living under Israeli military occupation.” Massachusetts has only one sponsor, Ayanna Pressley. What is interesting is who is missing. When McCollum introduced her first bill protecting Palestinian Children over four years ago, Katherine Clark, Jim McGovern and Seth Moulton were also sponsors. Where are they on this bill?

Sonic Cafe #236/My God It's Full Of Stars!

Sonic Café that’s the Starseeds with Starman from the dawn of the new millennium, ahh so hey how you doin’? I’m Scott Clark and this is episode 236. Stellar Seismology, the technique astronomers use to record the cosmic symphony of stars. Though we can’t hear it with our ears, stars perform a concert that never stops. Big stars make deep sounds, small stars produce high pitches, mix it all together and you’ve got quite a concert. So, this time the Sonic Café brings you the songs that stars sing in a thing we’re calling My God It’s Full Of Stars. Our mix includes actual star sounds along with a star-crossed batch of tunes pulled from over 40 years. Listen for Starcastle, the Flaming Lips, Flunk, Broken Social Scene, Tears for Fears and many more. Then later we’ll get cosmic perspective from Carl Sagan, listen in on an actual alien abduction, courtesy of Chris and Jack and still later listen for William Shatner, the original star ship commander in his search for major Tom. All that and of course more straight ahead as we bring you the sounds stars make from that little café that looks out over the star filled sky over the big blue Pacific. We’re the Sonic Café.
