Podcasts about american states

On this very geopolitical heavy episode, we start off talking about 3 possible provinces in Canada that may want to secceed and become American States. Then we go to the US southern border and talk about the Mexican army soldiers that went a little too far north and ended up in New Mexico. We then talk about some of the new tech the United States Marines will be getting to combat swarm drone attacks. WE shift over to the Asian continent and start with the Houthi owned oil fields that were destroyed by American forces. Pakistan and India are gearing up for war as tensions rise and an Indian outpost was destroyed by Pakistani forces. China's Foxconn company that manufactures iphones are shutting down manufacturing facilities and is also moving them to india, this along with other factors has lead to alleged uprisings all over China. We then shift to Europe where Spain, Portugal, and parts of France have experienced massive power outages. Then we finish by discussing the launch of Russians spring offensive and what this may mean as far as trying to achieve an end to this war.To join in the conversation next week and every Wednesday night at 9pm cst, come to patreon.com/CajunKnightBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cult-of-conspiracy--5700337/support.

Government attention to the security and resilience of subsea telecommunications cables has intensified in recent years. While largely owned and operated by private companies, a growing number of states now qualify or designate the systems as critical, if not strategic infrastructure, the security and resilience of which are vital to economic and societal well-being, national security and much else. In her address to the IIEA, Dr Camino Kavanagh discusses government efforts to protect the infrastructure in the current geopolitical context, examining how such efforts - and the different challenges that emerge - contribute to the global telecommunications systems' core resilience capacities. About the Speaker: Dr. Camino Kavanagh is a Senior Fellow with the UN Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR) and a Visiting Senior Fellow with the Dept. of War Studies, King's College London. Her current research focuses on international security, conflict and technology as well as emerging issues relevant to critical subsea infrastructure. Camino is also Senior Digital Advisor to the UN Department of Political Affairs' Policy and Mediation Division. She served as advisor/rapporteur to the 2019-2021 and 2016-2017 UN negotiating processes on cyber/ICT and international security (UNGGE and UNOEWG). Over the past decade she has also advised and consulted with the UN Secretary-General's office, the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA), the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the European Commission, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Organization of American States, as well as with government departments and agencies on issues pertaining to national/international security, conflict and diplomacy. Prior to this, Camino spent over a decade working in conflict and post-conflict contexts, including with UN peacekeeping operations and political missions.

In this episode of Thriving in Intersectionality, host Lola Adeyemo welcomes Horatio Morgan, an AI specialist and business process improvement expert whose remarkable journey from Jamaica to the United States exemplifies resilience, adaptability, and the power of embracing opportunity. As an engaged member of the Immigrants in Corporate community, Horatio shares his experience navigating professional growth across cultures while leveraging his unique intersectional identity. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to navigate career advancement as a first-generation professional Strategies for leveraging your unique perspective as an immigrant The importance of certification versus certificates in the U.S. job market Ways to pivot your career using AI and emerging technologies Keys to overcoming imposter syndrome in elite professional settings The Power of Multiple Intersections: Born and raised in Jamaica, Horatio identifies his intersectionality through various lenses: being Jamaican in the United States, coming from a poor neighborhood while attending one of Jamaica's elite high schools, and being a first-generation everything—first to attend high school, college, and soon an Ivy League university. He also references Jamaica's national motto, "Out of many, one people," highlighting how cultural diversity is intrinsic to his identity. From Supreme Court Clerk to Breaking Through Imposter Syndrome: Horatio shares his unexpected professional journey, beginning as a clerk at Jamaica's Supreme Court. Despite having no mentor, he said "yes" to opportunities that expanded his responsibilities and visibility. His willingness to self-teach and take on challenges led to international recognition, including special projects with the Organization of American States and a prestigious fellowship program. One of his most powerful stories involves being selected for the Duke of Edinburgh Commonwealth Study Conferences Leadership Program in England. Surrounded by Fortune 500 executives, he initially experienced severe imposter syndrome until his expertise in business restructuring silenced doubts. "Never look down on people because you don't know their experiences," he reflects, noting how others had underestimated his capabilities based on appearances. Navigating Professional Growth in a New Country: Horatio emphasizes several key strategies for immigrants building careers in the United States: Continued education is essential - Even with advanced degrees from your home country, U.S.-based education and certifications are often necessary Understand certification vs. certificates - Recognized certifications from established bodies carry more weight than certificates Share your knowledge publicly - Horatio's writing about AI on LinkedIn led to an invitation from Oxford University, where he's currently pursuing an executive post-graduate diploma in AI for business Find your community - Connect with groups that truly represent and support your intersectional identity Never give up - Despite failed business attempts and initial employment challenges, persistence is crucial Horatio has developed methods to teach AI to perform business analysis functions and is passionate about helping others in the community prepare for AI's transformative impact on various industries.

Now that the election is done and dusted, and we've had a chance to process somehow one of the least controversial presidential races of the last few decades, America's back to business, with Congressmen threatening international institutions, the American public spending gobsmacking amounts of money for the holiday season, and California declaring a state of emergency over bird flu. Wait a second—can states even do that? Lucky for us, today's podcast guest is an expert on state and local government law and state constitutional law who's written a book on the very subject. We're thrilled to welcome back the Harold Washington Professor of Law at the Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law, Daniel B. Rodriguez, to discuss his new (open-access!) book Good Governing: The Police Power in the American States. Ever wondered what the terms sic utere and salus populi mean? We kick off the podcast discussing those two different approaches to the police power of the states. Rodriguez expounds on his thesis about the development of state police power by discussing all the state cases he's read, and why legal scholars focused on the federal courts usually get things wrong. Next, we discuss the different kinds of checks that exist on state power: structural, rights-based, and democratic. We then turn to the interplay between police power on the one hand, and the state and local government relationship on the other. (Sam's out for this one, so you know we really get into the weeds of state and local governments.) Finally, we wrap up with Rodriguez's argument for why state capacity is a problem of state constitutional law and good governing. This podcast is generously supported by Themis Bar Review.

What is the United States for? Journalist Matt Kennard would argue the most powerful nation in the world exists to undermine democracy, deny national sovereignty, and funnel wealth to the financial elite. His book, The Racket, exposed the true nature of the American Empire, a nature the mainstream on both the Left and Right refuse to acknowledge. Matt's first appearance on Planet: Critical saw him exposing How Corporations Overthrew Democracy. Today, he reveals the complicity and active participation of the American State as a counter-revolutionary force in the world, giving numerous examples from almost every continent as to how the United States has sought to undermine the rule of law and democracy in order to secure resources, security and power for itself. We also discuss how difficult it is to broach these topics in the mainstream, with Matt giving a searing critique of major journalism outlets who take up space as seemingly leftist publications without ever challenging imperialism. We also discuss the nightmare in Gaza and how bearing witness to a genocide is radicalising people all around the world to take action. This is an episode about the lies we have been told—and how to fight the information war while we can. Planet: Critical is 100% independent and community-powered.

Hello!Today we have another informative and deep episode with Claire Dunning, a historian and associate professor in the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland. Her first book, which came out with the University of Chicago Press in 2022, is a history of urban nonprofits and philanthropic organizations titled Nonprofit Neighborhoods: An Urban History of Inequality and the American State. More recently she has written about what she calls the “nonprofit industrial complex” as well as the growing turn away from neoliberalism in the philanthropic sector which Claire recently wrote about in a Nonprofit Quarterly essay entitled “What Does the ‘End' of Neoliberalism Mean for the Nonprofit Sector?”We had Professor Dunning on to talk about the discourse about "the groups," how the non-profit industry became an industry and arguably lost its way, how to change the influence they might have in politics into something that could be good and serve more people, and a whole lot about the history of how both the term "non-profit" and the relationship these groups have with the government changed over the course of the past seventy of so years.enjoy!

Today, we nod to the past while paving a new way forward for the future of anti-racist community development. This episode explores the layered history of American community development and the policies that have shaped — if not torn — the fabric of our communities.If we're going to achieve community development that is actually anti-racist, a baseline understanding of its history is not only a prerequisite.To build that fundamental understanding, Third Space Action Lab's Anti-Racist Community Development research project documents some of the early exclusionary government policies that shaped U.S. communities and responses of community development, from the Federal Home Loan Bank Act of 1932 to the Housing Act of 1949.In today's episode, we hear from Tonika Johnson, a social justice artists visualizing the arc of community development in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood (read more about her Folded Map art project) and historian Claire Dunning, an associate professor at the University of Maryland's School of Public Policy and author of “Nonprofit Neighborhoods: An Urban History of Inequality and the American State.” “The ways that federal housing policy is being designed and implemented is enabling white families to build equity, and Black families, if they're able to buy housing, are not able to build equity at the same rates or in the same kinds of ways,” says Dunning, whose research focuses on how nonprofits have used and critiqued government funding to develop alternative responses to urban problems. “It's just more expensive to occupy housing as a Black family … as a result of the ways that the government has intervened.” This sponsored episode was produced in partnership with Third Space Action Lab. Its Anti-Racist Community Development research project was developed with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect the views of the Foundation. To learn more about strategies for advancing practical, concrete change in the sector, visit The People's Practice.

Today's book is: A Pedagogy of Kindness (University of Oklahoma Press, 2024), by Dr. Catherine Denial, which explores why academia is not, by and large, a kind place. Without kindness at its core, Catherine Denial suggests, higher education fails students and instructors—and its mission—in critical ways. Part manifesto, part teaching memoir, part how-to guide, A Pedagogy of Kindness urges higher education to get aggressive about instituting kindness, which Dr. Denial distinguishes from niceness. Having suffered beneath the weight of just “getting along,” instructors need to shift every part of what they do to prioritizing care and compassion—for students as well as for themselves. A Pedagogy of Kindness articulates a fresh vision for teaching, one that focuses on ensuring justice, believing people, and believing in people. Offering evidence-based insights and drawing from her own rich experiences as a professor, Dr. Denial offers practical tips for reshaping syllabi, assessing student performance, and creating trust and belonging in the classroom. Her suggestions for concrete, scalable actions outline nothing less than a transformational discipline—one in which, together, we create bright new spaces, rooted in compassion, in which all engaged in teaching and learning might thrive. Our guest is: Dr. Catherine J. Denial, who is the Bright Distinguished Professor of American History and Director of the Bright Institute at Knox College. A regular speaker and consultant on teaching and learning, she is also the author of Making Marriage: Husbands, Wives, and the American State in Dakota and Ojibwe Country. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, the producer of the Academic Life podcast. She holds a PhD in history, which she uses to explore what stories we tell and what happens to those we never tell.

By population only 3% of American states are pro-life. Only 5 states (all less populated) hold to a pro-life stance by majority vote. However, a small minority, just a little bit of salt could make a difference. But here's the $100,000 question.  How do we get more salt, and more saltiness into the salt?This program includes:1.

Since the blatant electoral fraud that took place on July 28, the Maduro regime in Venezuela has sought to repress its way out of mass protests demanding political change. The regime's heavy-handed crackdown comes at a time when the International Criminal Court has already been investigating Venezuela for alleged crimes against humanity. As the regime seeks to silence dissent and close the civic space, this pending case may represent one of the few remaining levers the international community can apply to instill restraint, but only if such an approach is carefully considered. In this episode, Christopher Hernandez-Roy sits down with Santiago Canton, Secretary General of the International Commission of Jurists and a member of the Panel of Independent International Experts on the Possible Commission of Crimes against Humanity in Venezuela of the Organization of American States. Together, they discuss the state of the ICC's investigation and how it is likely to develop in light of the abuses the regime has committed in the past three months. They also delve into the debate around whether the ICC case represents an impediment to political change, or if it remains a useful means of applying pressure on the regime.

Latin America has taken a democratic backslide in the 21st century with more regimes entrenching themselves in power through autocratic practices and political repression. The lack of human rights and increase in political violence in Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua, are alarming, especially as this sort of authoritarian learning starts to spread throughout the region. For Episode 35 of the Border Wars Podcast, we are joined by Foreign Minister Rubén Ramírez Lezcano of the Republic of Paraguay, who shares lessons learned throughout his 35 years of diplomatic experience. Paraguay is a staunch supporter of Israel; it's the largest country recognizing Taiwan; and is an important trade partner for Brazil and Argentina, two of the largest countries in Latin America. Minister Ramírez Lezcano takes us through a tour of the region, discussing the challenges in Venezuela and Cuba, while explaining the opportunities in the Caribbean countries. Nominated by Paraguayan President Santiago Peña as a candidate to be the next secretary general of the Organization of American States, Minister Ramírez Lezcano also provides his vision for the OAS ahead of its election in March 2025.

The Declaration of Independence audaciously declares certain “truths” to be “self-evident”.  And, in so doing, offered a justification for not only a break with Great Britain and Revolutionary War, but the foundation upon which a new nation could be built.  But how uniformly were these “truths” held and understood by the Founding Fathers?  Were they disparate views that were ultimately incoherent or inconsistent?  Did the divergent cultures of the American North and South have fundamentally different ideas of what they conceived of America to be?  Were the Founders simply protecting their material interests and reaching for any argument at hand that seemed useful to that end?   Who was most responsible for the ideas of the American founding?  John Locke?  Scottish Enlightenment thinkers?  Egalitarianism?  Modernity?  Scientific rationalism?  Christian teachings?  Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is historian Hans Eicholz who argues it was actually a harmonization of many of these different, but not incompatible, sentiments that lead to the founding of America.   About Hans Eicholz Hans Eicholz is a historian and Senior Fellow at Liberty Fund.  Much of his work has been in the history of economic thought, looking initially at the influence of market ideas in the American founding period, but also extending up through the 19th century.   Hans is the author of Harmonizing Sentiments: The Declaration of Independence and the Jeffersonian Idea of Self-Government (2001; Second Edition, 2024), and a contributor to The Constitutionalism of American States (2008).

Send us a textWhat can early American state constitutions teach us about the intricate relationship between faith and governance? Join me, Jesse Cope, on the American Soul Podcast as we uncover the profound Christian references within the Constitution of New York from 1777, and how the founding generation's beliefs in natural laws and divine principles influenced the nation's framework. We begin our journey with heartfelt gratitude to our listeners, an update on the homestead, and a timeless lesson from my mother about seizing opportunities when they arise. With a prayer for educators and families, we emphasize the importance of daily Bible reading, prayer, and expressing love to our spouses, setting the stage for our deep dive into early American state constitutions.Explore the historical context of religious requirements for public office in North Carolina's 1776 constitution, where we discuss the critical role of faith-based qualifications in governance and the intent behind prohibiting dual office-holding to avoid conflicts of interest. Discover the common misconception about the separation of church and state, and how North Carolina mandated that officeholders acknowledge God and the Protestant religion to ensure the state's freedom and safety. We also examine the Constitution of New Hampshire from 1776, noting its unique lack of religious emphasis and reflecting on the significant autonomy originally granted to the states. As we conclude, I extend my blessings to you and your families, eagerly looking forward to our future discussions on the foundational principles that shaped our nation.Support the Show.The American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

The Republican Party held its nominating convention a week ago in Milwaukee, formally nominating former President Donald Trump as the standard-bearer for the GOP, and also his vice-presidential pick, Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH). Just before the convention kicked off, Trump was the target of an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania. The GOP convention was unique in having the former president there over all days of the event. But since the convention concluded, President Joe Biden has announced that he will not be standing for re-election, and immediately endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, to become the Democratic nominee for president. As we are taping this podcast on Wednesday, July 24th, Vice President Kamala Harris looks like the presumptive Democratic nominee, about 4 weeks before the Democratic convention. It has been a head spinning two weeks of politics in the United States and the dynamics and focus of the presidential race has shifted dramatically. To take stock of where the race stands about 100 days out, we have two experts on the presidency. Dr. Meena Bose is the Executive Dean for Public Policy and Public Service Programs at the Peter S. Kalikow School of Government, Public Policy and International Affairs and director of the Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency, both at Hofstra University. Dr. Daniel E. Ponder is the L.E. Meador Professor of Political Science and Director of the Meador Center for Politics and Citizenship at Drury University. Meena and Dan are the co-editors OF a new De Gruyter Series in Presidential Politics, Leadership, and Policy Making. The first volume is Evaluating the Obama Presidency: From Transformational Goals to Governing Realities (De Gruyter, 2024) edited by Meena Bose and Paul Fritz. It includes a chapter on presidential leverage and Obama's decision making on Syria by Dan Ponder and Jeff VanDenBerg. Previously, Meena joined the podcast to discuss her book Executive Policymaking: The Role of the OMB in the Presidency (co-authored with Andrew Rudalevige) and Dan also chatted with Lilly about his book Presidential Leverage: Presidents, Approval, and the American State. They are also veterans of Postscript, having come on the show in the past few weeks to discuss the state of the presidential election and consider it in historical and institutional context.  We spend this conversation talking about the changing dynamics in the presidential field, and the decisions made by President Biden to step aside. We go over the conventions, discussing the recent Republican convention and what the Democratic convention may be like in a few weeks' time. We talk about issues that may define the race or are defining the race, including the economy, immigration, and reproductive rights. We also, as good political scientists, discuss the prospective options for the vice-presidential selection that Vice President Harris will have to make over the next few weeks. During the podcast, we mentioned: Julia Azari's Substack post at Good Politics/Bad Politics on Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign kickoff event in West Allis, WI on Tuesday, July 23. The Daily's episode focusing on the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania. Susan Liebell's piece in The Medium from April on Vice President Kamala Harris and Reproductive Rights.

A political history of the rise and fall of American debt relief. Americans have a long history with debt. They also have a long history of mobilizing for debt relief. Throughout the nineteenth century, indebted citizens demanded government protection from their financial burdens, challenging readings of the Constitution that exalted property rights at the expense of the vulnerable. Their appeals shaped the country's periodic experiments with state debt relief and federal bankruptcy law, constituting a pre-industrial safety net. Yet, the twentieth century saw the erosion of debtor politics and the eventual retrenchment of bankruptcy protections. The Political Development of American Debt Relief (U Chicago Press, 2024) traces how geographic, sectoral, and racial politics shaped debtor activism over time, enhancing our understanding of state-building, constitutionalism, and social policy. Emily Zackin is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at Johns Hopkins University. Her first book was Looking for Rights in All the Wrong Places: Why State Constitutions Contain America's Positive Rights (Princeton UP, 2013). Chloe Thurston is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at Northwestern University. Her first book was  At the Boundaries of Homeownership: Credit, Discrimination and the American State (Cambridge UP, 2018). Host Ursula Hackett is Reader in Politics at Royal Holloway, University of London. Her first book was America's Voucher Politics: How Elites Learned to Hide the State (Cambridge UP, 2020).

Chapter 20 of Breaking Away: The Case for Secession, Radical Decentralization, and Smaller Polities. Narrated by John Quattrucci.

This week, Emily Hart is setting out into the Wild West of cryptocurrencies here in Colombia and beyond. Is cryptocurrency the future of finance in Latin America? Is it safe? Is it just another way for rich people to hide their wealth from the tax man? Or for criminals to launder income? Or could it be a way for people to take banking into their own hands, a way for all of us to take control from a global system of banking we have so little say in? To explain all of that, we have on the show today Mat Di Salvo, Colombia-based correspondent covering crypto since 2019 for Decrypt, and two experts from Global Financial Integrity, a Washington DC-based think tank focused on illicit financial flows, corruption, and money laundering. Claudia Helms is the Director of the Latin America and Caribbean Program at GFI, having worked at the Organization of American States; And formerly at the UN, Claudia Marcela Hernández works as Policy Analyst for Central America in Global Financial Integrity. By early 2020, the region had 15.8% of the total volume of bitcoins worldwide, and it has grown exponentially since then. Last year, Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina were in the top 20 for global adoption – Colombia was 32nd in the world. Venezuela was 40th. Looking at crypto in any country requires a close look at the context, unique in every case: this region is turning to digital and virtual currencies for many different reasons, using it to send remittances, invest, and save – especially important in countries that have unstable governments, high inflation, or low levels of trust in institutions. Here in Latin America, levels of poverty and informal employment might create barriers to usage, while technological and educational gaps create unique challenges for users, especially when a new digital revolution of cryptocurrencies and virtual assets arrives without adequate regulation, government oversight, or consumer awareness – particularly around scams and security. This is why GFI started https://criptoabierto.com/ - a set of resources around crypto in Latin America designed for users and policy-makers alike. Basically, regulation of cryptocurrencies in the region does not adequately match its current usage and adoption. Colombia has yet to adopt legal framework, despite a growing number of users, but there is movement around this issue and various institutions have released commentary on it, and President Gustavo Petro has expressed interest in encouraging crypto usage - and mining - in the country. Thanks to the anonymous nature of this universe, it's difficult to get accurate data on exactly who is using crypto and what for, and though it's certainly not only criminals using these currencies and assets, they have high potential for money laundering and channelling illicit flows of money, from stolen funds and fraud to payments for illegal goods and funding of terrorist groups. We'll be talking about the opportunities and risks associated with cryptocurrencies, how their form and use are evolving, plus how (and why) cryptocurrencies can and should be regulated.

A friend of mine, Jessie Young, former State Representative, joins us. The conversation went differently than I expected. He provided insight on the degree in which Satan is controlling things in the separate country of Washington. Not just that, he shared about honeypot scams and people being compromised financially and spiritually. We hear the history of senior Republicans who have sold parents out, going behind the scenes to help Democrats get their pornographic and satanic sex ed bill passed. And, Jesse also tells us about One Washington, an initiative to create a bill of rights for parents. What does God's Word say? Proverbs 22:6 Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.Proverbs 3:5-6 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.[a]Matthew 18:6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.Episode 1,402 Links:OneWashington website4Patriots https://4Patriots.com/Todd Stay connected when the power goes out and get free shipping on orders over $97.
