Women Don t Intend To Fall In Any More Of Your TRAPs
with
Andrew Beck, attorney, ACLU Reproductive Rights Project
Last week women fought to climb out of another TRAP dug for them on their long road for reproductive health and the control of their bodies. The deepest of TRAPs (Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers), laws that are cloaked in the deceptive language of women s health, but which actually put women at risk, by shutting down health centers where women can get safe and legal abortions was just argued at the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court case was the most important abortion case in decades. Inside the court, the justices asked how the law, HB2, will actually help Texas women. Meanwhile, outside advocates gathered to demonstrate their support for abortion access, for every woman in every state. Shifts in the power structure of Congress have led to promises to strip away access to reproductive health care, especially abortion. Laws that make it difficult if not impossible for a woman to get an abortion if she needs one, particularly if she is poor, are increasing at an alarming pace.
At this critical time, we will reveal whose behind the TRAPs, and what we can expect from the Supreme Court in the wake of this latest anti-abortion case, and most importantly on protecting access to affordable contraception, and a woman's ability to make personal, private decisions about pregnancy and abortion, and fighting pregnancy discrimination.

Ain t I a Woman
featuring critically acclaimed actress Vinnie Burrows
In the town of Akron, Ohio in 1851, an African American woman delivered a moving speech at the Womens Convention that would be remembered for its rawness, authenticity, and powerful message and holds as much relevance today as it did then. Sojourner Truth spoke to the Women's Convention about her experiences and tribulations as not only a woman in that day s society but as a Black woman. She established a sense of identity as a victim of discrimination by describing how she faced prejudices as a Black person and as a woman in order to incite an emotional response in her audience and invited her audience, mostly women suffering from their own forms of discrimination, to realize the injustices of which they too are victims.

Partial Victory for Rasmea Odeh; Diane Buttu's timeless analysis and outline of the way forward
March 10, 2016, 6:18 p.m.
This weekâs feature presentation is a speech given by Palestinian attorney Diana Buttu. It is an historical analysis of what happened to the so-called peace process, which, as she details has been bogus from the beginning. What is interesting is that her speech was given in 2010. We feature it today because it is timeless. It was given on the eve of what has become known as the proximity negotiations, which of course were unsuccessful because Israel has never been serious about accepting an equal Palestinian presence in historic Palestine. Now, over 5 years later, we know how correct Diana Buttu was, and still is, in her analysis. She ends by outlining a way forward, a realistic way forward that can help us deal with the current realities in Palestine/Israel.
But first: Just a few weeks ago, we had Nidal Al-Azraq on this show, discussing the desperate shortages of water in Palestine, and in the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem in particular. Now, you can help Nidal and his organization 1for3 raise much-needed funds for their work. 1for3 is planning a 5K Walk for Water along the Charles River in Cambridge on Saturday, April 23rd. To walk or support 1for3's fundraising effort, go to classy.org/walk4water5K.
Also: We have been following the court case of Palestinian/American organizer Rasmea Odeh, and there is some good news as reported in a story written by Ali AbuNimah in the Electronic Intifada, which you will hear. Odeh has faced conviction, rescission of her U.S. citizenship, and deportation for failing on her citizenship application to report her long-ago conviction in a sham Israeli court. That was based on a false confession obtained by torturing her. An Appeals Court has now vacated her U.S. conviction, overruling certain findings by US District Judge Gershwin Drain. She is now in line for another trial with fairer rules, this time allowing evidence of the effect of being tortured ... unless Judge Drain can come up with another excuse for excluding it.

Kirk Beattie: Congress and the Shaping of the Middle East
March 9, 2016, 12:24 p.m.
Blankfort interviews Beattie whose book ends arguments about who controls Congress, who shapes US Middle East policy and that US war on Iraq was about oil. Not according to Congressional staffers. Beattie's conclusions came from interviewing more than 150 Congressional staffers. He also speaks about the âsocializationâ of Americans to support Israel and their ignorance of how Israel works, how it dispossessed Palestinans in 1948; he explains how AIPAC spots prospective pliable members of Congress from ranks of city level employees and readies them to serve Israel's interests; how it set up a separate tax-exempt foundation, America Israel Education Foundation, to send politicians to Israel and bypass laws against lobby paid trips; how Israel lobbyists created âstealthâ PACs to disguise their contributions to pro-Israel members of Congress and much more.
