The White House Coup, 1933 - Document - BBC

Document uncovers details of a planned coup in the USA in 1933 by right-wing American businessmen View a picture gallery of images related to this edition. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/history/document/document20070723_gallery.shtml The coup was aimed at toppling President Franklin D Roosevelt with the help of half-a-million war veterans. The plotters, who were alleged to involve some of the most famous families in America, (owners of Heinz, Birds Eye, Goodtea, Maxwell Hse & George Bush’s Grandfather, Prescott) believed that their country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression. Mike Thomson investigates why so little is known about this biggest ever peacetime threat to American democracy.

#531 -- Ending the Many Wars in Syria, Part 1 (R)

Part 1 of a fine new speech by Progressive writer and activist Phyllis Bennis. She argues that Syria is suffering not from a war but from a half-dozen different wars now being fought there. Many of these are "proxy wars" between other countries (e.g., Saudi Arabia and Iran) being "fought to the last Syrian" There is no military solution to the Syrian disaster--and furthermore, every military adventure the U.S.has taken in this century has been a dismal failure....

Outrage over Radio-Canada/CBC's coverage of Gaza massacre

Bruce Katz from PAJU (Palestinian and Jewish Unity) and Hanna Kawas, Chairperson of the Canada Palestine Association, both sent letters of outrage to Radio-Canada/CBC over what they describe as bias and misleading coverage of the ongoing violence in Gaza. Canada's public broadcaster is accused of justifying the murders committed by the occupation army and blaming the victim. So far over 40 Palestinian demonstrators were shot and killed by the Israeli occupation army and over 6000 were injured since the 'Great March of Return' protest of March 30. 2 journalists are among the dead and several among the injured. We talked to both activists about their letters and the responses they received from Radio Canada-CBC.

Capitalism, Colonialism and Resistance in Canada

Joined by Brendan Campisi, Back in the USSR delves into the real history of Canada as a settler-colonial state, the brutal process of land theft and capital accumulation that gave it birth, and the courageous resistance of indigenous nations and other oppressed peoples against a colonizing power bent on their destruction.

Teachers Strike and Protest in Colorado and Arizona

Teachers Take the Lessons of the Classrooms to the Streets from West Virginia to Arizona and now Colorado with . Joselyn Palomino, Denver High School Teacher of Mexican-American Literature . Cat Berrett, English teacher at Phoenix Union High School District The victorious wildcat strike in W. Virginia ushered in a new wave of teacher and state worker activism and strikes organized by the rank and file with their unions racing to catch up. Teachers without bargaining rights in Oklahoma, Kentucky and Arizona and where striking is illegal and their unions weak summoned their courage and walked off the job. The most recent addition to this cavalcade of militancy is the Colorado teachers who with their union the Colorado Education Association shut down the statewide school system for two days last week. At the same time Arizona teachers went on strike after weeks of militant demonstrations. . The strikes and mass protests often been led by the workers themselves forming new organizations often based on face book sites which host full-throttle conversations of what to do next such as Arizonas face book group that organized the #RedForEd campaign and Kentuckys KY120 United. They are fighting years of budget cuts which translate into low wages and benefits and as importantly for these workers reduced school budgets meaning overcrowded classrooms, lacking basic supplies, updated books and educational materials. They are fighting for themselves and their students and have rejected deals to separate the issues. Workers have been under brutal attack & unionization has been in decline for over 40 years. The employer offensive against unions has included all-out war against militant action & especially strikes. Yet it has only been in the periods of struggle and strikes for the private sector in the 1930s and late 40s and the public sector in the 1960s that unions have grown and workers prospered. Now the West Virginia workers have sparked workers across the land to embrace their rekindled militancy.

Sonic Cafe #85/The RANT & RELAX Show

Sometimes you just gotta have that funk! That’s Parliament from 1975. Hey welcome to episode 85 of the Sonic Café, I’m Scott Clark. This time the Sonic Café gets you all worked up with what we consider to be the mother of all rants. Pulled from the movie Network, we’ll here newscaster Howard Beal get mad as hell and refuse to take it anymore. What’s interesting to us is the issues Howard is unhinged about in 1976 are basically the same as the tweet storms we endure today. So yeah, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Then later, we’ll turn down the tension, as the Sonic Café presents a few soothing words from the supreme life form of the universe a Dalek. All that wedged in between a music mix pulled from 40 years. Listen for Channel Light Vessel, Steely Dan, Kevin Gilbert, Kings of Leon and more. Plus classic jazz from my man Yusef Lateef captured live at Pep’s in 1964. All that along with observations on life from comedians Steven Wright and George Carlin, this time on the Rant and then Relax show, here at your home for intelligent, eclectic music, comedy and pop culture, we’re the Sonic Café.
