interviews Author/Activist David Bacon , US Elections

Nov. 2, 2016, 5:27 p.m.
For two decades veteran photojournalist David Bacon has documented the connections between labor, migration, and the global economy. In Illegal People Bacon explores the human side of globalization, exposing the many ways it uproots people in Latin America and Asia, driving them to migrate. At the same time, U.S. immigration policy makes the labor of those displaced people a crime in the United States. Illegal People explains why our national policy produces even more displacement, more migration, more immigration raids, and a more divided, polarized society. Sylvia speaks to David about the upcoming US elections, the candidates and the issues and how to build social movements beyond the election.

Robert Parry Exposes US Middle East Media Reporting

Nov. 2, 2016, 1:15 p.m.
Robert Parry criticizes both US policies in the Middle East and Afghanistan, going back to the 1980s and the US media’s sycophantic coverage of it, noting that some of the same reporters who beat the drums for Iraq war are doing the same regarding Syria, ignoring that facts on the ground showing US to be in a defacto alliance with Al Qaeda in the battle for Aleppo. a fact also ignored by US politicians including Clinton whose plan to implement a “no-fly” zone over Syria risks another war. Acknowledging that there are no clean hands, or “good guys” in such situations, he contrasts the coverage of Aleppo and what appears to be staged propaganda images of victims in the Al-Qaeda run Eastern Aleppo while ignoring the casualties in government controlled Western Aleppo caused by Western supported jihadist shelling. Parry reexamines the operation to overthrow Khadaffi in Libya, lobbied for by Clinton, in which US, French, and British forces destabilized the one country in the region that offered advanced public services to its people and now is hopelessly divided, as a result of the exaggeration by US media of Khadaffi’s threats to the population of Benghazi. He also speaks of other reasons that France and the others wanted him removed, including his growing influence and willingness to assist lesser developed countries in Sub-Sahran Africa. He also speaks of the pro-Russian secular government of Afghanistan before the US joined forces with the Saudis to create the mujahedeen that overthrew it and produced both Al Qaeda and the Taliban; how women had rights to go to school, to wear whatever they want, and enjoyed freedoms that were taken away with the rise of the Taliban; and the hypocrisy of the US which claims it is supporting the rights of women there.



Jeff Blankfort News/Op: Panthers, Syria, Al Qaeda, Lebanon

Nov. 2, 2016, 1:03 p.m.
Blankfort begins with report on showing of Seize the Time, a film about the Black Panthers released by Italian filmmaker Antonello Branca in 1971 and the influence, on its 50th anniversary, of BPP on Black Lives Movement today and Chicano, Asian, Puerto Rican, and American Indian movements of the 60s and 70s and link between Indian takeover of Alcatraz in 1969 and resistance of Standing Rock Sioux today. Blankfort then reports on Pentagon readying for offensive to take Raqqa using Kurdish fighters despite their indifference to Raqqa and Turkey’s objections to their use, showing the US to be clueless, as usual. He then speaks of NY Times admission that anti-government forces in Aleppo are directed by Al Qaeda. He then shifts to Lebanon where former president and Hezbollah ally, Maronite Christian leader, Michel Aoun, has been re-elected to the presidency, upsetting Saudi, Israeli and US plans. He concludes with report of audio of then Sen. Hillary Clinton telling right wing Jewish newspaper that the US should have fixed the 2006 Palestinian elections as the DNC fixed her nomination.



Raji Sourani speaks in Brooklyn; BDS under attack

Nov. 2, 2016, 12:35 p.m.
Today you will hear Raji Sourani, Founding Director of the Palestinian Center for Human Rights in Gaza, speaking at a forum entitled "Palestine In Focus: Reports from the Ground" that was sponsored by Brooklyn for Peace. The forum was moderated by Jamil Dakwar: Director of the ACLU Human Rights program, and was held in the spring of 2016 in Brooklyn, New York. Raji recounts just a few of the many rabid human rights assaults that Israel, with its allies, have inflicted on the people of Gaza. These assaults intensified after Gazans, in free and fair elections, elected Hamas leaders to run its government. Electing Hamas has been treated as an unforgivable sin, requiring lethal retaliation. But first: As you probably know, the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement is gaining momentum around the globe. The Israeli Lobby is striking back in full force. One of its moves is to get state legislatures to pass bills that provide punishments for businesses that support the BDS initiative. As usual, the argument is that supporting BDS is "anti-Semitic." Such accusations continue to stampede governors and legislatures which continue to bow to such arguments for fear of reprisals from the Jewish community. Even Governor Baker here in Massachusetts has bought into the argument and is supporting anti-BDS legislation. He must have been absent when they taught the First Amendment in his school. Boycotts are protected Constitutional activity but that evidently is unknown to Baker and his staff. In light of this stampeding, a special forum was held 10-29-2016 on the challenges faced by the BDS campaign. You will hear our host's announcement of this as a future event. Regrettably, we didn't make this posting in time. Now it's in the past, but very much worth chasing if you can.

March - March Madness in Mammal Reproduction

Nov. 2, 2016, 11:14 a.m.
March is a busy time in the animal world. Animals can't afford to wait to mate until the weather warms because their young would not be born until June or July, often too late for all the growth that must happen before the young of the year face their first winter. From gray squirrels and red foxes to timber wolves and mink, many animals mate in March, but some take longer than others to give birth. It’s hard to catch the courtship rituals of animals like the snowshoe hare and raven, but if you can, they are magical to behold. Learn more about March Madness in the animal world in this fun podcast.

Ralph Nader "Breaking Through Power" (TWO of TWO)

Nov. 1, 2016, 8:24 p.m.
Part two of this program begins with a summary of Nader's strategy for breaking through power: Congress, he said, is the center of power. We need to focus razor like on individual members. Organizing from the grassroots in each district we agree on specific demands that are supported widely - even nationally - and then presented in person to these members. Nader suggests opening year round offices in each congressional district to represent the people full time. There would be about 2,000 people in these offices in each district, made up of volunteers and paid staff. Nader's plan also includes a small staff of full time lobbyists in Washington who will follow up on the local demands, including offering sample legislation. They monitor success and failure by members of Congress to obey the wishes of their constituents. A third important element of direct democracy is the People's Summons. Instead of patiently waiting for the Congress member to let the constituents know when he or she is available for coffee and questions in the district matters are reversed. This new grassroots democratic movement, via their local offices, comes up with concrete demands and sends a polite summons to the Congress member to appear at a town hall meeting organized by the constituents and to be prepared to answer questions and take direction. In this second part of his talk Nader gives advice how to take back the media and he lists accomplishments by small groups and individuals who have over time made all the important gains in this country: the end of slavery, civil rights, labor rights, the vote for women, the populist farmers rebellion against the banks and railroads and more. "Breaking Through Power - it's easier than we think" was published in the Fall of 2016 in the Open Media Series by City Light Publishers. Nader credits City Lights editor Greg Ruggiero for having requested that he write this book as a tool for political action.

Shower Power: Doniece Sandoval

Nov. 1, 2016, 4:27 p.m.
Do you live in a city? Well, if you don’t, you may soon. It is predicted that by 2050, more than 70 percent of us human beings will be living in cities. The urban landscape offers several advantages for sustainability, including reduced transportation emissions, more efficient water delivery, and less per-capita energy consumption. But those of us who live in cities know there are also disadvantages. Today on Sea Change Radio we speak with two innovative thinkers who are working on solutions to a couple of the problems of city living. Our first guest is Doniece Sandoval whose company Lava Mae recycles buses and transforms them into mobile showers for people who cannot access sanitation, many of whom live on our urban streets. We talk about the model, the mission, and the vision of replicating these bathroom buses in cities everywhere. Next, we dig into the archives to revisit host Alex Wise's discussion with Dickson Despommiers, microbiologist and vertical farming advocate. He tells us why he believes growing food in skyscrapers would conserve water and fossil fuels, and how it could become the way cities get food in the not-too-distant future.

Student run WHPK-Chicago call for help

Oct. 31, 2016, 11:59 p.m.
Interview with Sasha Tycko, University of Chicago alumna, former Program Director at WHPK-Chicago and current DJ at the historic student run radio station in Hyde Park on the campus of the University of Chicago, about their campaign to reestablish student control of programing at the station. They are contesting new operating restrictions imposed by the University that in effect censor student and community broadcasting. She explains the course of events and the directives that forced temporary station shut downs and then the resignation of many long time community DJs whose contribution to the station she explains. The students object to administrator bullying and the imposition of policy that undercuts their agency and impoverishes the rich cultural opportunity that WHPK provided the student DJs and community for the past 30 years. She explains their demands: resumption of 24 hour programing, a reconvened governing board and greater autonomy and agency in their ability to broadcast freely.
