Episode 2017.07 - The Green Economy, Considering a Plan for the Future

I have mulled over completing this episode for nearly 4 years, every time I started it I abandoned it, believing the content not appropriate or lacking in some way. Today I am pleased to place forward this episode, still rambling, but with some hard core solutions which may reignite the economic engine most rely on for sustenance. Included in the content are three independent segments unrelated to the topic, but necessary nonetheless. I hope you find this episode titillating and can find some time this week to further research cooperatives, the green new deal and possibly listen to the wonderful podcasts Economic Update and The Bradcast (if you already don’t) which both deal with hardcore political and economic realities. I would also encourage you to inquire on local currencies and the foundations made necessary by their implementation. Thank you for listening today – Peace!

Israeli attorney Gaby Lasky describes her work defending resisters of Israeli tyranny

Our feature presentation this week is a recording of Israeli attorney Gaby Lasky talking to a group visiting the West Bank and Israel from the Boston area, sponsored by the GRALTA Foundation. (Recently formed in Lincoln, MA, GRALTA stands for Grass Roots Awareness / Learning / Travel / Advocacy.) Lasky introduces herself and talks about the cases she takes defending both Palestinians and Israelis who are prosecuted for the roles they play in resisting the occupation. Before that, we start with a tribute to Gerald Kaufman, the British lawmaker who famously compared Israel’s actions in Gaza to those of the Nazis who murdered his grandmother. He died recently at the age of 86 after a long illness. It was undoubtedly because of Kaufman’s Jewish background that his comments drew particular ire from Israel’s surrogates. – including the speech he gave in the House of Commons on January 15, 2009, two weeks after Israel began its bloody assault on Gaza known as “Operation Cast Lead.” He spoke truth to power. We play that speech now, and while you listen, please imagine a U.S. President, or at least a member of our Congress, having the courage to do the same!

Women and Immigrants Organizing and Striking - Now and Then

Women and Immigrants from Unity Marches To Preventing Business as Usual with Nelson Lichtenstein, professor of history at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and director of the Center for the Study of Work, Labor and Democracy. He is a labor historian who has authored or edited 16 books, including his most recent book Achieving Workers Rights in the Global Economy (2016), hes also written about 20th-century American political economy There are important questions facing all those seeking the best way to protest President Trump, the GOP-led Congress, and the immigration, health care, environmental policies, womens and Black Lives Matters on issues the new administration seeks to impose upon a reluctant populace:as to what is the meaning of a strike, demonstration, or protest march? The brilliance of strikes and stoppages like the Day Without Immigrants and the Womens Strike lies in organizers willingness to halt business as usual. Labor Historian Nelson Lichtenstein talks about a strike " not calling in sick, not taking paid time off, but an actual work stoppage " which will not only demonstrate a sense of inclusive solidarity. It will also have the potential to put enterprises and institutions that employ a cosmopolitan, multicultural and multinational workforce " Hollywood studios, Silicon Valley, higher education, hospitals and clinics, ports and warehouses, municipal government, and even the world of fast food and retail trade " in at least symbolic opposition to the Trump regime. It will demonstrate the meaning of solidarity to millions entirely unfamiliar with unions or any other form of collective action and make clear that employees themselves can have a loud and independent voice. Such a movement will demonstrate once again that work and politics are indistinguishable and inseparable. **************** Bread and Roses: The Lawrence Textile Strike - 1912 The Lawrence Textile Strike was a strike of immigrant workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts in 1912 led by the Industrial Workers of the World. Prompted by one mill owner's decision to lower wages when a new law shortening the workweek went into effect in January, the strike spread rapidly through the town, growing to more than twenty thousand workers at nearly every mill within a week. The strike, which lasted more than two months and which defied the assumptions of conservative trade unions within the American Federation of Labor that immigrant, largely female and ethnically divided workers could not be organized, was successful.
