Interviews author/Educator Nathalia Jaramillo
July 15, 2017, 11:23 a.m.
Senior Lecturer Nathalia Jaramillo is a graduate of Harvard University and the University of California Los Angeles. She has teaching experience in the United States, as well as in Latin American universities. Dr. Jaramilloâs scholarship is concerned with understanding the social, economic and political conditions that shape the schooling experiences of marginalized communities; on generating methodologies and practices that bridge the divide between educators and communities.
We speak to her about her most recent book, Immigration and the Challenge of Education: A Social Drama Analysis in South Central Los Angeles. The interview focuses on the issue of forced migration and the socialization of education under Neoliberalism . Educationâs complicit role in legitimizing the role of colonization, capitalism and imperialism, if un-intendedly complicit.
The Newark Rebellion - 50 Years Later
July 15, 2017, 10:23 a.m.
Fifty years later,
has the U.S. learned anything from the Newark rebellions?
with
Junius Williams, served as the chair of the committee celebrating the 350th anniversary of the founding of the city of Newark, has hosted conferences about the riots at Rutgers-Newark to discuss what the city has endured since 1967. Prof. Williams is a nationally recognized
attorney and educator who has been at the forefront of the Civil Rights and Human Rights Movements in this country for decades. He was the youngest President of the National Bar Association and was listed as one of the 100 Most Influential Blacks in America in Ebony
Magazine, ran for Mayor of Newark, and now teaches leadership and community organization at Rutgers University, Newark, based on lessons outlined in his book, Unfinished Agenda, Urban Politics in
the Era of Black Power.
and
Larry Hamm, has been organizing, agitating and protesting for more than a quarter century, from the time he helped to lead a student movement against a Newark teacher's strike as a senior at Arts High, to his days leading demonstrations against apartheid at Princeton University, to his adult years as the president of the People's Organization for Progress, one of the most important grass-roots organizations for empowerment in the country and was the state director of the Million Man March.
Fifty Years ago on July 12, 1967 the African American residents of Newark
rebelled. The rebellion was sparked by
the beating of a Black cab driver by white police officers and would leave 26 people killed, more than 700 injured, and millions of dollars of property damage to looted, vandalized, and burned properties.
On the 50th anniversary of what has become known as the Newark riots, local historians and activists say the similarities between the city then and the country now, are striking. Frustrated by racial tensions and individual acts of police-involved violence, and amid the backdrop of a politically and culturally tumultuous era, academics say the people of 1967 and the people of 2017 don't seem so far apart. In fact, they argue, should Newark's riots and the nearly 50-year fallout the city continues to struggle with in its aftermath not serve as a cautionary tale, we may be headed for a replay of what was arguably the decade of greatest violent upheaval in American history.
According to Junius Williams, Dir. of the Abbott Leadership Institute at Rutgers University, Newark, activists today are faced with the same choice as those in the 1960s: protest peacefully or violently.
"We are poised on the precipice," said Williams, a lifelong Newarker who
witnessed the rebellion first hand. "We will either have mass acts of civil disobedience, or individual acts of violence. But, people are frustrated, so either way, it can't stay the way it is now."

Repeat - The Rule of Law and the Politics of Fear: Lawyer Dennis Edney
July 14, 2017, 11:44 a.m.
On the occasion of the July 2017 apology and 10.5 million dollar payout by Canadaâs Liberal government to Omar Khadr, the Global Research News Hour features a June 2015 talk by Khadrâs lawyer Denns Edney in Winnipewg, Manitoba, Canada.
Omar Khadr is a Canadian citizen captured during a firefight in Afghanistan while still a minor and detained for a decade at the infamous Guantanamo Bay facility, where he was tortured. On May 23, 2008, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled unanimously that the government had acted illegally, contravening section 7 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Yet in spite of this on the record judgement, 71% of the Canadian population in a subsequent poll expressed disapproval of the payout.
We present this repeat broadcast (which originally aired on July 1st of 2016) to provide some context for the Canadian governmentâs decision.

We start out this weekâs archive radio show in Bubble World! That magical land wherein reality has absolutely nothing to do with reality!
Then â as an example â we provide evidence that the banksters â after having stolen nearly everything in the world â now have too much money and there is no longer anything to spend it on and there is nothing left to invest in! What a dilemma! I am crying a river here!
Then, we dig in with a little definitional commentary as we simultaneously provide an update concerning the current situation (as of 2015) in the governmentâs attempt to seize monopoly control of our buds here in the State of Washington.
An ex-French intelligence agent attempts a little âtruth and reconciliationâ concerning the murder of a Greenpeace activist and the conjunctive sinking of the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior back in 1985.
The Thunderbolt reveals a powerful weapon that we have (though most people have never even heard of it) called âjury nullificationâ.
I briefly describe my collision with the United States Army and later with the United States Prison Industrial Complex.
We describe the differences between the governmentâs reactions to unarmed left-wing activists and armed right-wing activists.
We cogitate upon how atrocity always requires a claim of virtue.
Then â for the feature piece â we provide an historical biography of an undercover behind-the-lines anti-Nazi activist that you have almost certainly never heard of named Albert Göering.
We live in a contradictory world. Listen with care.

Out of the Woods - Show #380 - 7-22-17
July 13, 2017, 12:25 p.m.
This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul
