Amer Zahr gives voice to the resiliency and resistance of Palestinians against great odds

It's a difficult time for Palestinians, but then again, under occupation, it's always a difficult time for Palestinians. That is why we continue to marvel at the resiliency and passion for their land that seems to buoy them to continue their resistance against great odds. We certainly see that in Amer Zahr, our presenter this week, who gives voice to that resiliency and resistance of his people. Amer Zahr is an Arab-American comedian, speaker, writer, academic, and adjunct professor of Law. He draws on his experiences growing up as a child of Palestinian immigrant parents, performing and lecturing on topics like politics, society, Islam, growing up Arab, and more. Here is Amer Zahr speaking with the Palestinian Podcast producer Salem Barameh.

Ntl. Education Assn. Says: No One Should Listen to Trump, DeVos on Reopening Schools!

3 Million Strong The National Education Association (NEA) is the largest labor union and professional interest group in the United States and says “No One Should Listen to Trump, DeVos on Reopening Schools”! with Mary Kusler, Senior Director for Advocacy of the NEA Trump let loose with a another of his flurry of hysterical tweets condemning CDC guidance on reopening schools and threatened to withhold funding to schools that don’t reopen for fall, creating more panic for stressed families seeking leadership and assurances that their children can return to school safely during a deadly pandemic. After Trump tweeted, “SCHOOLS MUST OPEN IN THE FALL!!!,” Eskelsen García, president of NEA fired back, “You forgot to add the word ‘SAFELY.’” NEA’s president Lily Eskelsen García says what’s good for students and school staff has nothing to do with politics and the safety and well-being of the student and parents is exactly what is at stake. Safety does not appear to be a top concern of the Trump administration, who claimed the CDC guidance was too “restrictive” and too “expensive.” The CDC refused to modify what its health experts recommend, and education organizations like NEA are committed to following the science behind their advice. “There’s no one that wants our kids back more than teachers … but we want to open it safely,” Eskelsen García said on CNN’s “New Day.” “I had 39 sixth graders one year in my class. I double-dog dare Donald Trump to sit in a class of 39 sixth graders and breathe that air without any preparation for how we’re going to bring our kids back safely.” But the real false choice, Eskelsen García says, is what the Trump administration is pressuring parents to make. Choosing to prioritize the health of students and school staff is not a choice to prolong mental and economic distress, as the administration suggests. “None of us should accept the false choice,” Eskelsen García said. “There are ways to mitigate the risk. It will be costly but it’s worth every dime. We will not open an unsafe school. Nothing else is acceptable.” Also missing from the Trump administration’s demand for reopening is any mention of the longstanding, vast inequities COVID-19 exposed. Black and Latino families are three times more likely to be affected by the virus and two times more likely to die. There is also a disparate economic impact with more people of color losing their jobs or housing due to the pandemic. And then there is the educational impact. Lower-income kids can’t participate in distance learning if they can’t access the internet or have no device. Even if they do, many have working parents who were unavailable to support them during online learning. To address inequities as well as safety concerns Eskelsen García says, we need a robust response, which is included in the HEROES Act (Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions), passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, and now sits in the U.S. Senate. Money from the roughly $3 trillion House coronavirus bill must go directly to local and state governments and school districts.

A roll-call from the United Nations on Hong Kong

Cuba spoke on behalf of 53 countries to deliver a joint statement on non-interference in the affairs of sovereign states. In asserting sovereignty in Hong Kong, China is fulfilling its responsibility as a state to ensure stability during a time of foreign interference. It is evident that many countries support China's position. It is the West's gang that opposes China's actions. Those who talk about 'democracy for Hong Kong' forget that HK had no democracy during the entire period of white colonial rule. The entire nation-state of China now needs stability and security in order to become modern and advanced. Our Canadian politicians have further clarified the issue for us: Canada has to play along with whatever the U.S. wants on China.

Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks.

Dr. Victoria Patterson - Native American Life, Before and After Europeans Part 2

Cultures that have no written language pass on their histories through oral traditions. The stories are the way that social values and traditions are taught by one generation to the next. Animals often play a significant character role in these stories. In the Native American traditions of the northwest part of California, the coyote is a very popular character. Dr. Victoria Patterson, an anthropologist based in Ukiah, California, has worked with native peoples for over 30 years. She knows these stories, and she sees them as windows, allowing us to imagine how original native peoples of northern California thought and lived. I met with Dr. Victoria Patterson and asked her about the significance of the story where the coyote jumped off into the sky. Our discussion lead to a two-part program, originally broadcast in February of 1999. Dr, Victoria Patterson recommends “Deep Valley,” by Bernard W. Aginsky and “Under the Tuscan Sun,” by Frances Mayes. Originally Broadcast: February 16, 1999 and February 26, 1999
