Don't Lose Your Cool: Katie Herzog on A/C

Who doesn't enjoy that refreshing feeling when you walk in from 90 degree heat to the cool blast of an air-conditioned room? Last month extreme heat blistered most of the US, from the Northeast, to the Southwest and practically every place in between. Weather experts are telling us that extreme is going to be the new normal when it comes to summer temperatures. Thank heavens for A/C. Approximately 86% of American households are equipped with air conditioners, and the rest of the world is rapidly catching up. But, while it undoubtedly helps human beings survive extreme heat, A/C is a huge and growing greenhouse gas offender. Our guest this week on Sea Change Radio is reporter, Katie Herzog, who recently wrote a piece for Grist on the social and environmental costs of air-conditioning. We discuss the past and future of these machines, the possibility of solar-powered A/C units, and the irony of this thing that is making us hotter by keeping us cool.

It explores the context of the Zionist colonization of Palestine going all the way back to the 1922 British mandate. Prepare to take notes and/or re-listen; there's a tremendous amount of detail.

The Project for the New American Century (TWO of TWO)

This is the conclusion of the reading of a once well guarded document "Rebuilding America's Defenses, Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New American Century". It was commissioned by Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and others in the year 2000, before any of them were in government. Named in the text are the countries to be invaded: On the A-list: Iraq, Syria, Libya and later Iran and North Korea. This is evidence that the invasion of Iraq on false "intelligence" was promoted - successfully one might say - by a neo-conservative interventionist movement of which Cheney and Rumsfeld were two important players among many who are still active. The Obama administration can be credited to have intervened in Syria and Libya, albeit not quite "muscular" enough - according to present neo-conservative leadership. The think tank, the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), that produced this blueprint was founded in 1997 by William Kristol and Robert Kagan, to this day leaders in the Neo-Conservative movement. Kagan was an official advisor to Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State and he is expected to take on an important role in a future Clinton administration. The PNAC text gains new importance since the neo-conservative movement remains active and prominent leaders continue to influence both parties. It is a chilling blueprint for the expansion of US military dominance. In this reading of part TWO the call for US military dominance from space and the denial of access to others to space seems the most Orwellian.

Part 1 of Guy McGowan Steel Steward on Rojava, updates on hunger strikes and Sept 9th, and words from Sean Swain

*******Starting with this episode, we'll be available through the iTunes store for easy podcasting under the name thefinalstrawradio, so find us there every week, rate us and tell your friends! This week's show features a conversation with Guy McGowan Steel Steward, an American anarcho-communist about his joining the Rojava Revolution alongside Kurdish and other folks in Northern Syria. Guy was one of two American anarcho-communists featured in a recent Village Voice article entitled "A Hello To Arms" and his writings and images documenting his ongoing time in Rojava can be found at https://www.facebook.com/scenesfromrojava/ . In this episode he'll speak about training, conscription, nationalism, other internationals and more. The second half of this conversation with Guy will be available as a podcast alongside this episode and will show up in an upcoming radio show. ======= Protests erupted last yesterday in the Sherman Park neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, hours after the fatal police shooting of a 23 year old man by MPD the police claim was fleeing a vehicle with a gun. Sherman Park has been witness to increased tension with police and the growth of a community watch program called #WeAllWeGot. The riots that grew from the protests ended up smashing a police vehicle, burning vehicles (including a patrol car), torching a BMO bank and 4 other businesses, including a BP gas station that has been the site of previous tension. Organizers of the #WeAllWeGot group, a Black Power and police abolitionist group, is raising money for arrest support. You can donate at https://paypal.me/WeAllWeGot ======= But first here is a call out pulled from the anarchist news source It's Going Down : "This is a challenge to anyone who is supportive of the September 9th prisoners’ strike but who has remained on the sidelines until now. In order for this strike to not be snuffed out by a handful of prison censors and violent guards, it needs to spread uncontrollably beyond their reach. And because prisons strictly forbid communication between prisoners, it is our responsibility on the outside to facilitate this contagion. The first obvious step is to begin sending in word of the strike, immediately. If people on the inside are to be able to meaningfully act, they are going to need some time to begin spreading the word to their friends and formulating a plan. To that end, we are suggesting that outside accomplices begin printing strike announcements and mailing them inside prison walls en masse." To access these prepared strike annoucements, in English and Spanish, and for more information on how to send literature into prison and to whom, you can visit the aforementioned news website itsgoingdown.org and scroll down to the article entitled "A Challenge: Spread the Strike to Every Jail, Juvie, and Prison!" For more information about the nation wide September 9th prisoner strike, you can visit either supportprisonerresistance.net or iwoc.noblogs.org for the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee. ======= Anarchist prisoner Eric King was moved this week to a prison not far from his friends and family, good news for once! To write him, address letters to: Eric King 27090045 FCI ENGLEWOOD FEDERAL CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION 9595 WEST QUINCY AVENUE LITTLETON, CO 80123 For more information about Eric King and his case, you can visit his support website at https://supportericking.org ======= Here is an announcement concerning Siddique Abdullah Hasan, who has been targeted by prison officials and COs in direct relation to the September 9th prisoner work stoppage. He was recently visited by the FBI in prison and placed in solitary confinement. This is from itsgoingdown.org: "Around noon eastern time on August 11th, Hasan got word out through lawyers that he was doing fine and that if anyone wanted to correspond with him they should include a stamp for the reply since he could not go to the [jpay] kiosk. Hasan has access to postal mail, and presumably to JPay, but not the kiosk machine, so if you write him an email (and visit JPay.com to find out how if you don’t already) be sure to click the “include a stamp for reply” box before sending. Please also continue to call the prison 330-743-0700. They are routing all the calls to a specific person, so lets keep her busy. Ask when he’s going to be let out of the hole and demand that this bogus investigation end immediately. Also, write to Hasan, the more mail he gets the more support we’re demonstrating. You can include a total of 5 sheets of paper and 3 embossed envelopes, so if you have any handy, slip them in to make sure he’s got supplies to write people back. His address: Siddique Abdullah Hasan R130-559 OSP 878 Coitsville-Hubbard Rd Youngstown OH 44505 ======= On August 1, 2016, following rebellion in one of the dorms, the riot squad attacked individuals at Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore, Alabama, placing multiple individuals in segregation. In violation of Department of Corrections policy, the prisoners have not received a 72-hour investigation notice of the reason for their being placed in segregation, and have not had their personal property returned. The comrades have had to go without shoes, clothing, deodorant, and toothbrushes, and have not had access to their addresses and phone numbers. Call Warden Mitchell and demand that those put in segregation after the recent riot be released and have their property returned. Phone number: 251-368-8173 You can visit https://anarchylive.noblogs.org and search "August 1st rebellion" to learn more and for suggestions on what to say to the warden when you reach him. ======== These are the words of Laron McKinley Bey, who is a prisoner in Waupun who is participating in the ongoing hunger strike there, to protest the conditions under which they are forced to live: "In a nation that would not tolerate shutting in zoo animals 23-24 hours per day the State of Wisconsin has no compunction confining prisoners to indefinite isolative Administrative Confinement (AC) alone in a parking-space size cell for 164 of the 168 hour week. Such prolonged social, environmental, and occupational isolation and lack of stimulation is well known to pose a substantial risk of harm to mental and physical health. Norman Uhuru Green and I, 2 of the longest standing Wisconsin prisoners held in this type of endless isolation at 18 years, and nearly 28 years respectively, together with Cesar DeLeon, form the 3 remaining original ‘Dying to Live’ movement hunger strikers who continue to refuse to eat or drink in hopes of forcing an end to the state’s practice of indeterminate seclusion. On June 7, 2016, a group of 10 Wisconsin prisoners in solitary confinement at the Waupun and Columbia correctional institutions began refusing nourishment to expose the inhumane conditions of their confinement, and to facilitate dignified treatment of all humans. Within a few weeks the Department of Corrections had obtained court orders to force-feed Uhuru, DeLeon, and I 3 times daily which entails being placed in full restraints, and then strapped into a ‘restraint chair’ and having a nasal-gastro tube inserted in one nostril to the stomach where a liquid mixture of nutrition is funneled. Besides violating the sanctity of our bodies, this procedure is an invalid state response to a dignified struggle and it can cause significant internal injury. Despite this, our strength and morale remains high, and we are determined until we see substantive change. Among our reasonable demands are a 1 year cap on the length of AC, and a 15 day cap on punitive isolation. A coalition for support of prisoners on the outside has carried our reasonable demands to the DOC officials and state legislation, which may lead to proposed legislation on a negotiated settlement." To write to Bey, address letters to: Laron McKinley Bey, #42642 Waupun Correctional Institution PO box 351 Waupun, WI 53963 ======= Playlist is here: http://www.ashevillefm.org/node/17206
