Podcasts about Amnesty International

Send us a textAccountability costs more than a press conference, and that's exactly why our politics keeps choosing words over work. We open with the Caribbean boat strikes and map the legal gray zone where overlapping agencies, temporary guidance, and classified memos substitute for clear law. When Congress refuses to define roles and rules of engagement, the executive fills the vacuum, and the public gets euphemisms instead of answers. Action would assign ownership; chatter only spreads the blame.From there, we unpack Amnesty International's harrowing report on detention sites branded with cutesy nicknames that dull the edge of cruelty. Rationed water, perpetual lighting, invasive cameras, solitary confinement, and a two-foot outdoor “box” paint a picture of punishment—not processing. This is how authoritarian systems grow: through emergency measures, no-bid contracts, and a culture that treats rights as perimeter-sensitive. If we normalize this for the powerless, it will not stay at the margins.We then draw a line to the business of conspiracy. Doubt has become identity, fear a product, and insinuation a growth hack. Whether it's panic at scale, tragedy sold as authenticity, or plausible deniability framed as curiosity, the market for suspicion thrives when institutions speak morally but act selectively. People notice when leaders find money for munitions but not insulin, when civilian deaths are “regrettable” abroad and oversight is optional at home. Consistency is the currency of credibility—and we're running a deficit.To anchor the stakes, we revisit James Baldwin's clash with Paul Weiss, where history, power, and personal agency collide. Institutions are evidence, Baldwin reminds us; ideals mean little without structures that honor them. Our case is simple: define maritime authorities in law, end euphemisms that hide state violence, restore constitutional standards in detention, and hold media voices to the risks of being wrong. Coherence, transparency, and courage won't fix everything, but they will close the gap that cynicism floods.If this resonates, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review with the one reform you think would build the most trust.

Dziś w programie: Mija Tydzień – przegląd najważniejszych politycznych wydarzeń tygodnia; trwa akcja Amnesty International pisania listów, w sprawie uwolnienia więźniów politycznych na świecie - rozmowa z Agnieszka Dąbrowiecka z Amnesty International; choć Jerzy Giedroyć urodził się w Mińsku i przez dekady zabiegał o partnerskie relacje Polski z Białorusią, temat białoruski zajmował w paryskiej „Kulturze” zaskakująco mało miejsca. Co jednak udało się napisać o Białorusi? Pokazuje to nowa antologia opracowana przez prof. Tadeusza Sucharskiego; gość PRdZ –Małgorzata Łuczak z inicjatywy Five I Am Heroes, o Gali Bohaterów Codzienności w Londynie. To wydarzenie stworzone po to, by uhonorować członków brytyjskiej Polonii, którzy na co dzień bez rozgłosu niesie realną pomoc innym, budując poczucie wspólnoty i pokazując, że dobro ma znaczenie. Zapraszamy!

Wie geht es weiter bei den Friedensverhandlungen für die Ukraine? Washington hat sich zu einem weiteren Treffen bereit erklärt, bei dem vor allem der US-Vorschlag einer entmilitarisierten Zone Thema sein dürfte.│ Die Bundesregierung macht Russland für einen großen Cyberangriff und eine Desinformationskampagne im Bundestagswahlkampf verantwortlich. Der russische Botschafter ist deshalb ins Auswärtige Amt einbestellt worden.│ Im Gazastreifen spitzt sich die eh schon verzweifelte Lage vieler Menschen noch zu. Ursache sind die andauernden Regenfälle der letzten Tage und die dadurch verursachten schweren Überschwemmungen. │ Amnesty International hat der radikalislamischen Hamas und anderen militanten Palästinensergruppen erstmals Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit während und seit dem 7. Oktober 2023 vorgeworfen. Bei dem damaligen Überfall vom Gazastreifen aus auf Israel sind mehr 1200 Menschen ums Leben gekommen und über 250 Menschen entführt worden.

«Il genocidio continua». Amnesty International rompe gli indugi e consegna al presente una parola che in questi mesi è stata contesa, negata, sminuita. Mentre l'organizzazione pubblica il nuovo dossier, a Khan Younis il freddo si prende la vita di Rahaf Abu Jazar, nove mesi, morta nella tenda che avrebbe dovuto proteggerla dall'inverno. La scena del padre che la stringe in braccio diventa il contrappunto più feroce all'idea che esista ancora un margine di normalità. La tempesta Byron ha allagato i campi, il vento ha strappato i teli, l'acqua si è mescolata al fango. L'UNRWA parla di sofferenze «senza precedenti dalla Seconda guerra mondiale» e definisce Gaza «inadatta alla vita». Nelle stesse ore il ministero della Salute aggiorna il conteggio: 70.369 morti. La statistica sale e il lessico umanitario si assottiglia mentre gli ospedali improvvisati contano i casi di ipotermia tra bambini e anziani. Gli aiuti non seguono la curva dell'emergenza. I camion restano sotto le promesse dell'accordo, Kerem Shalom apre a singhiozzo, le banche riaccendono le luci con poco contante, abbastanza per un'illusione di routine. La distanza tra le dichiarazioni di intento e la realtà del terreno si misura nella cronaca di una bambina che muore per il gelo dentro una tenda. Dall'alto del teatro diplomatico, Trump convoca per il 2026 il suo Board of Peace e prepara l'incontro con Netanyahu. È un calendario remoto che scorre mentre l'inverno avanza e avvolge gli sfollati. Se Amnesty dice che il genocidio continua, le morti del freddo non sono effetti collaterali. Sono un'altra forma dell'assedio. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Številne organizacije za človekove pravice ugotavljajo, da se te pravice krčijo, in to celo v državah, v katerih so jih še nedavno skrbno varovali. Ne kršijo pa jih samo bolj pogosto, ampak tudi bolj sistematično. P rav tako se povečujejo pritiski in prizadevanja za oslabitev institucij, ki jih varujejo. Tej temi, ki z leti postaja vse bolj aktualna, se bomo ob dnevu človekovih pravic posvetili v Studiu ob 17-ih. Gostje: dr. Veronika Fikfak, sočlanica svetovalnega odbora Sveta Združenih narodov za človekove pravice in profesorica za človekove pravice in mednarodno pravo na univerzi v Londonu; Taja Premk, Amnesty International; Elena Lunder, Društvo za sonaravni razvoj Focus.

10 grudnia przypada Międzynarodowy Dzień Praw Człowieka. Tego dnia rozmawiamy o tym, co najbardziej uderza dziś w prawa człowieka: od osłabiania rządów prawa i niezależności sądów, przez inwigilację i nowe technologie, po ograniczanie wolności mediów i prawa do protestu. Zastanowimy się też, czy język praw człowieka wciąż ma siłę sprawczą i gdzie szukać nadziei, gdy katalog praw się nie zmienia, ale ich przestrzeganie coraz częściej bywa warunkowe. Goście: dr Adam Płoszka z Amnesty International oraz Dominika Bychawska-Siniarska z Helsińskiej Fundacji Praw Człowieka (być może także Maciej Nowicki z HFPC).

O investigador em Direitos Humanos Saleh Hijazi trocou o trabalho na Amnistia Internacional pelo comité nacional palestiniano do BDS — um movimento que colide com o objetivo de neutralidade de organizações de ajuda internacionais. Não duvidando de que os palestinianos precisam dessa ajuda, exige uma “reforma radical” do modelo em que é prestada. Esta entrevista integra a série “Indústria da Ajuda na Palestina”. Sabe mais sobre a nova série Fumaça, Indústria da Ajuda na Palestina, em www.fumaca.pt/[EN] After a short intro, this interview is conducted in English. Human rights researcher Saleh Hijazi left his job at Amnesty International to join the Palestinian national committee of BDS—a movement that conflicts with the goal of neutrality pursued by international aid organizations. While he does not doubt that Palestinians need this aid, he calls for a “radical reform” of the model under which it is provided.

Have a comment? Send us a text! (We read all of them but can't reply). Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this episode of Faithful Politics, Will and Josh talk with China expert William Nee about the major October 2025 crackdown on Beijing's Zion Church, one of the largest underground Christian networks in China. William explains what actually happened during the coordinated raids, why Pastor Ezra Jin (Jin Mingri) and nearly 30 church leaders were charged with “illegally using information networks,” and how all of this connects to Xi Jinping's tightened national-security agenda.The conversation steps back to look at the broader picture: how “Sinicization” works, why the Chinese Communist Party fears independent faith communities, and what life is like for ordinary Christians when church gatherings, youth religious education, and online ministry can all trigger state action.William also describes how the U.S. government and human-rights groups are responding, why international attention matters, and what this moment means for Christians, Uyghur Muslims, Tibetans, and others facing religious restrictions in China. If you want clear, grounded insight into what's really happening inside China's religious-freedom landscape, this episode gives you the context you need.Guest bio:William Nee is the Senior Manager for East Asia at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), where he focuses on China's human-rights landscape, civil society, and religious freedom. Before NED, he served as a China researcher at Amnesty International and worked with Chinese Human Rights Defenders. His work often covers the CCP's efforts to control faith communities, including the recent crackdown on Zion Church and its founder, Pastor Ezra Jin.RELEVANT LINKSZion Church background:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beijing_Zion_ChurchPastor Ezra Jin biography:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jin_MingriReuters report on the 2025 arrests:https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-undergrSupport the show

Danielle Haas er redaktør og journalist som arbeidet som seniorredaktør i Human Rights Watch fra 2009 til 2023. Tidligere underviste hun ved Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, og som Jerusalem-basert korrespondent for Reuters, Associated Press og San Francisco Chronicle rapporterte hun om den israelsk-palestinske konflikten – blant annet fra Vestbredden og Gaza – samt fra Irak etter den amerikanske invasjonen.I senere år har hun blitt en ledende stemme for reform innen menneskerettighetssektoren. Hun hevder at feltet har mistet både nøytralitet og troverdighet. Med et sjeldent innsideperspektiv på utfordringene i store menneskerettighetsorganisasjoner, argumenterer hun for en ny tilnærming – «Menneskerettigheter 2.0» – basert på kjerneverdier, ansvarlighet og universalisme.Dr. Yariv Mohar er sosiolog med spesialisering i kollektiv handling i sivilsamfunnet, politisk vold og terrorisme. Han er også medleder for Initiative for National Security and Human Rights. Med bakgrunn fra både akademia og aktivisme har Mohar blitt en fremtredende stemme som utfordrer selektivt raseri og ideologisk skjevhet innen menneskerettighetsmiljøet.I sine nyere skrifter argumenterer han for en rettighetstenkning som kombinerer medfølelse med realisme, forsvarer sivile på alle sider og avviser avhumanisering. Mohar leder også Pro-Human Campaign, en global koalisjon mot avhumanisering av både palestinere, israelere, muslimer og jøder. Arbeidet hans tar til orde for en fornyelse av menneskerettighetene som en virkelig universell og løsningsorientert praksis – en som erkjenner både sikkerhetsbehov og menneskets iboende verdighet.Både Danielle og Yariv forlot henholdsvis Human Rights Watch og Amnesty International på grunn av det de opplevde der etter 7. oktober. ► NY BOK UTE NÅ: Frykt og Stillhet - jødiske stemmer i Norge etter 7. oktober.

Głosować można do 2 grudnia TUTAJ: https://indid.pl/dobry-dziennikarz-2025/ Na pewno widzieliście to zjawisko. Być może nawet byłyście jego celem. Ale prawdopodobnie nie potrafiliście go nazwać. I to całkowicie zrozumiałe, bo różnica między hejtem a dezinformacją ze względu na płeć jest bardzo rozmyta i trudna do zdefiniowania. Ale skutki takiej dezinformacji można już łatwo wskazać. To chociażby wypychanie kobiet z życia publicznego. Co potem kończy się m.in. tak, że na 15 najpopularniejszych w Polsce influencerów polityczno-informacyjnych jest tylko jedna kobieta - Anna Lewandowska. Zatem z okazji Międzynarodowego Dnia Przeciw Przemocy Wobec Kobiet opowiadamy o tym, jak duży zasięg ma to zjawisko, kto przede wszystkim dezinformuje i jakich grup to dotyczy. GOŚCIE ODCINKA: - Sylwia Spurek prawniczka i działaczka na rzecz praw człowieka, była zastępczyni Rzecznika Praw Obywatelskich ds. równego traktowania oraz europosłanka. Jest prezeską European Fem Institute, niedawno skończyła stypendium w Wilson Center, gdzie badała m.in. przemoc w sieci wobec kobiet i już niedługo ukaże się jej książka na bazie tych badań, - Paweł Prus z medialnego think thanku Instytut Zamenhofa, który przygotował raport o dezinformacji jako systemowej przemocy wobec kobiet, - Anna Matras, prawniczka z polskiego oddziału Amnesty International.

Send us a textCOP30 has ended without a firm commitment to phase out fossil fuels. Inside Geneva talks to some campaigners who remain surprisingly optimistic.“I'm actually quite hopeful, and I think that the answer is probably coming from the countries and the communities that have the most to lose,” says Candy Ofime, from the Climate Justice Team at Amnesty International.Indigenous peoples made their voices heard at COP30.They have deep knowledge of land use and forest preservation, which can help us tackle global warming.“The answer is us and that was part of the campaign that we had as indigenous peoples. [We said] ‘pay attention to the world.' Basically the solution that many of us are looking for has already been happening in the indigenous local communities,” says Deborah Sanchez, from the Community Land Rights and Climate Initiative (Clarifi).  Some now suggest global warming is a hoax…but the scientific evidence proves otherwise. It is damaging our planet and our health.“These are clever people who want what's best for you and can read a temperature graph, and they know that there are concrete actions that you can take which are good for your health, as well as good for the planet,” says Diarmid Campbell Lendrum, from the climate change and health unit at the World Health Organization (WHO). So does it matter that the world's super power, and biggest emitter of greenhouse gases, stayed away from COP30?“The US is usually a blocker, and sometimes having the biggest polluters not in the room allows for consensus to be reached. And so in this forum, decisions have to be made, and they will be made with or without the United States,” says Ofime. Can the world tackle climate change without the US?

As Prime Minister Mark Carney heads for the G20 Summit in South Africa, his trip to the United Arab Emirates proved to be one focused on strengthening diplomatic ties and potential foreign investment relations.However, mention of the UAE's alleged involvement in the war in Sudan was something many Canadians and human rights activists felt was missing from the trip's itinerary.Amnesty International claims credible sources have found the UAE to be in violation of the United Nations' arms embargo to Sudan's Darfur region, something the UAE repeatedly denies. The Sudanese war broke out in 2023, as its army battles for power against a paramilitary group, the Rapid Support Forces. More than 150,000 lives have been claimed.Host Maria Kestane speaks to Glen McGregor, political correspondent for CityNews to break down the implications of Carney's trip to the Middle East, and how the omission for holding the UAE accountable could have consequences for Canada's humanitarian image.

The next episode in the series “Can the record be trusted?” explores the prospects and challenges of human rights documentation and archives in the digital age, with speakers from an international expert workshop that took place at Queens University Belfast in November 2024. In this episode Dagmar Hovestadt talks to Marija Ristic about the cutting edge of digital evidence in contemporary human rights investigations. Marija is the head of Amnesty International's Digital Evidence Lab. In the conversation she shares how multidisciplinary teams combine field research, satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, and digital communication to document complex crises such as Gaza and Iran. Marija reflects on the fact that digital evidence now plays a central role in documenting human rights violations, especially in inaccessible or highly dangerous environments such as Gaza and Iran. While Amnesty International's processes are rigorous, they constantly must adapt to different contexts, balancing authenticity, security, and privacy concerns in the collection and use of records. A recent exciting initiative in this field is the Digital Verification Corps in which new generations of volunteers contribute to accountability efforts and document with digital tools, multiplying research capacity and supporting large-scale investigations. About: Marija Ristic is a seasoned human rights investigator heading Amnesty International's Digital Evidence Lab, focusing on crisis zones and digital documentation. She coordinates the Digital Verification Corps, mentoring global university teams in digital investigation and ethical verification practices. Marija draws on her background of reporting on post-Yugoslav war crimes, blending legal expertise with innovative research approaches.

rWotD Episode 3109: 2024 Venezuelan presidential election protests Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Friday, 7 November 2025, is 2024 Venezuelan presidential election protests.Protests followed the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election on 28 July, in response to voter fraud and other irregularities during the election cycle, as part of the 2024 Venezuelan political crisis. The election and unrest occurred in the context of the ongoing crisis in Venezuela.Statistical analyses by multiple organizations indicated that the election was won convincingly by Edmundo Gonzalez but those results have not been recognized by incumbent Nicolás Maduro; the Democratic Unitary Platform (PUD), an alliance of opposition parties, released vote tallies at the precinct level indicating that González won by a wide margin, while the government-controlled National Electoral Council (CNE) announced an unsubstantiated result, without any precinct-level tallies, stating Maduro won. Both candidates claimed victory, while many countries recognized González as the winner.Demonstrations to uphold the results of the election, along with vigils for political prisoners, occurred worldwide after the July election. Spontaneous protests broke out immediately after the election, while later rallies were organized by the Venezuelan opposition; Maduro claimed the opposition was encouraging a coup and has charged demonstraters with terrorism, while initiating an unprecedented crackdown. Maduro's security forces have gone door-to-door seeking to arrest protesters, poll workers and members of the opposition in what Maduro has referred to as Operation Tun Tun, and armed bands of Maduro supporters known as colectivos have joined security forces in repressing dissent. As of 14 August 2024, at least 2,200 persons are reported to have been arrested, and 25 killed; Maduro has announced plans to continue to seek the arrest of dissenters, and to rehabilitate two prisons to house those detained.The repression has been widely condemned by international groups; Amnesty International penned an open letter requesting urgent action from the International Criminal Court (ICC), on the basis of an ongoing ICC investigation of possible crimes against humanity under Maduro's regime.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:02 UTC on Friday, 7 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see 2024 Venezuelan presidential election protests on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Aditi.

En Tanzanie, des heurts en marge des élections législatives et présidentielle, dont l'opposition a été évincée, ont débuté mercredi. Alors que la population était appelée à respecter un couvre-feu jeudi, de nouvelles manifestations ont éclaté dans plusieurs villes du pays. Une situation commentée par la presse africaine. Si la coupure du réseau internet rend l'accès aux informations compliqué, le média Afrik.com souligne « un chaos post-électoral et un silence d'État ». « Rendez-nous notre pays ! » scandent d'un côté les manifestants, de l'autre, on constate une absence de communication de la part du gouvernement, dirigé par la présidente Samia Suluhu Hassan, « tandis que les mesures de sécurité sont renforcées et que les craintes de victimes augmentent », peut-on lire. Selon Afrik.com « L'absence de communication gouvernementale est d'autant plus inquiétante que le scrutin a été précédé d'une vague de répression sévère. L'organisation Amnesty International a dénoncé une véritable "vague de terreur" marquée par des disparitions forcées, des arrestations arbitraires et des actes de torture ». Le média précise : « Le principal parti d'opposition, le Chadema, dont le chef Tundu Lissu est jugé pour trahison, a été disqualifié pour avoir refusé de signer un code électoral jugé insuffisant ». Pas d'observateurs crédibles Au Kenya, The Daily Nation scrute également de près la situation chez son voisin Tanzanien. Le journal rappelle que des militants, depuis le Kenya, ont dénoncé « une mascarade », juste « après que les autorités ont interdit à deux des principaux partis d'opposition de présenter des candidats ». Par ailleurs, le KHRC « la Commission kenyane des droits de l'homme (une ONG) a tiré la sonnette d'alarme face à l'absence de groupes d'observation électorale crédibles lors des élections. "Aucune mission d'observation crédible n'est présente en Tanzanie. La Belgique, la Suède, l'Allemagne et l'Irlande se sont retirées des élections. Les États-Unis surveillent, mais sans y déployer d'observateurs officiels" explique notamment un membre du KHRC ». Cependant, rappelle The Daily Nation « l'Union Africaine, la Communauté de développement de l'Afrique Australe, la Communauté d'Afrique de l'Est et la Conférence internationale sur la région des Grands Lacs ont déployé des missions d'observation, ce qui a suscité des critiques pour avoir légitimé un processus défectueux ».   Au Burkina Faso, WakatSéra commente aussi la situation en Tanzanie, dans ces colonnes édito : « Après les élections, la tension ! (...) c'est le condensé en peu de mots, de la situation volcanique que vit le pays », peut-on lire. « La présidente sortante en quête d'un deuxième mandat, (...) n'a pas résisté à la tentation d'organiser des scrutins interdits à l'opposition, la vraie ». Ainsi, les manifestants « n'ont que leurs voix pour crier leur ras-le-bol d'un régime incapable de répondre aux attentes d'un peuple trop longtemps muselé ». En Algérie, des réactions et des commentaires sur la politique française Jeudi, le parti d'extrême droite français, le Rassemblement national, a obtenu une « victoire » à l'Assemblée nationale, en faisant adopter à une voix près une résolution qui vise à « dénoncer » l'accord franco-algérien de 1968, qui crée un régime d'immigration favorable pour les Algériens. « La France vote contre elle-même », c'est le titre d'un édito dans Algerie patriotique. « Derrière les apparences d'un débat diplomatique, c'est une fracture politique, morale et historique qui s'ouvre : celle qui annonce l'arrivée de l'extrême-droite au pouvoir en 2027. (…) Le fameux accord de 68, que les nostalgiques de l'Algérie française décrivent à tort comme un privilège offert aux ressortissants algériens, n'est en réalité qu'une coquille vide ». Et pour Algérie Patriotique, « le vrai scandale n'est pas dans le vote, mais dans la complaisance du pouvoir en place », car « l'exécutif a préféré jouer la partition du populisme. En reprenant à son compte les thèmes de l'extrême droite, il espérait la contenir, mais il n'a fait que la légitimer. C'est ainsi que, sous couvert de "fermeté", la France se déshonore et prépare son propre suicide politique ». Algérie 360, rappelle que l'idée de mettre en cause l'accord de 1968 n'est pas nouvelle. « Déjà en février, un rapport du Sénat suggérait d'envisager sa dénonciation. De plus, l'ancien ministre français de l'Intérieur, Bruno Retailleau, avait exprimé à plusieurs reprises son souhait de remettre en question cet accord, notamment lors d'une période de crise diplomatique ». Par ailleurs, le média observalgérie souligne que les accords de 1968 « ne sont pas liés aux obligations de quitter le territoire français non exécutées, argument souvent évoqué par le Rassemblement national ». Ces accords encadrent uniquement les droits de résidence et d'établissement des ressortissants algériens en France. Enfin, le texte voté ne modifie en rien ces dispositions... Puisqu'une résolution parlementaire ne peut pas imposer d'action à l'exécutif. Elle exprime seulement la position de l'Assemblée nationale.

Suchitra Vijayan speaks with Abdullahi Boru Halakhe in a conversation that traces the longue durée of exploitation and violence in the Congo from the colonial atrocities of King Leopold II to the resource wars that continue to devastate the region today. They unpack how the technologies of extraction and the politics of dispossession remain intertwined, shaping a global system in which Congolese land, labour, and life continue to underwrite the comforts of the Global North. Abdullahi situates Congo's crisis within the history of empire and its afterlives. He revisits the 19th-century “civilising mission” of Henry Morton Stanley and Leopold's personal ownership of the Congo Free State, connecting it to today's extraction of coltan, cobalt, and gold that powers Silicon Valley. From the uranium that fuelled the Manhattan Project to the minerals driving AI and green tech, he argues that the Congolese people have been made to pay for the world's progress with their blood and labour. The conversation then turns to Rwanda's complicity in the ongoing violence. Abdullahi unpacks how the legacies of the 1994 genocide, and the First and Second Congo Wars that followed, continue to shape Rwanda's sub-imperial role in the region. He details how Rwanda and Uganda act as conduits for resource extraction, exporting minerals that geologically do not exist within their borders, and how the profits of this trade flow through the Gulf states to Western markets. In this network, Congo becomes the epicentre of a global pipeline linking African sub-imperial powers, Gulf petrostates, and Western tech conglomerates: a chain of exploitation that transforms human suffering into industrial capital. The discussion broadens into an examination of how the same extractive and militarised logics underpin genocides and wars across the Global South from Congo to Sudan to Palestine. Abdullahi identifies the United Arab Emirates as a central malign actor, financing wars and shaping political economies of violence under the guise of development and modernity. What emerges is a picture of a world where the technologies of genocide — surveillance, securitisation, and resource militarisation — are integral to the global order. The episode closes with a meditation on history as resistance. For Abdullahi, liberation begins with reclaiming historical knowledge and refusing amnesia. From the Bandung Conference to the dreams of pan-African solidarity, he insists that history offers both warning and possibility: a reminder that despair is political, but so is hope. As Suchitra notes, this conversation marks a rare moment in the Technologies of Genocide series — one where history itself becomes a site of liberation, and knowledge a tool against the algorithmic erasure of human struggle. — Abdullahi Boru Halakhe is the Senior Advocate for East and Southern Africa at Refugees International.

Hannah Storey, Advocacy and Policy Advisor at Amnesty International, joins the show to talk about her new brief that reframes Big Tech monopolies as a human rights crisis, not just a market competition problem.This isn't about consumer choice or antitrust law. It's about how concentrated market power violates fundamental rights—freedom of expression, privacy, and the right to hold views without interference or manipulation.Can you make a human rights case against Big Tech? Why civil society needed to stop asking these companies to fix themselves and start demanding structural change. What happens when regulation alone won't work because the companies have massive influence over the regulators?Is Big Tech actually innovating anymore? Or are they just buying up competition and locking down alternatives? Does scale drive progress, or does it strangle it?What would real accountability look like? Should companies be required to embed human rights due diligence into product development from the beginning?Are we making the same mistakes with AI? Why is generative AI rolling forward without anyone asking about water usage for data centers, labor exploitation of data labelers, or discriminatory outcomes?The goal isn't tweaking the current system—it's building a more diverse internet with actual options and less control by fewer companies.If you've been tracking Big Tech issues in silos—privacy here, misinformation there, market dominance over here—this episode is an attempt to bring those conversations together in one framework.Mentioned:Read more about the Amnesty International report and download the full report here: “Breaking Up with Big Tech: a Human Rights-Based Argument for Tackling Big Tech's Market Power”Speech AI model helps preserve indigenous languagesEmpire of AI, by Karen HaoCory Doctorow's new book, "Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What To Do About It"

In mid-September, the UN issued a report stating that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Israel vehemently denies the charge. Genocide is the crime of crimes. It is a highly charged and loaded word.  To verify it requires clear and unambiguous evidence. The term was coined by the Polish Jewish lawyer Raphael Lemkin. Genocide combines the Greek prefix “genos” (race, tribe) with the Latin suffix “cide” (killing). Lemkin was aware of the Armenian genocide carried out by the Turks earlier in the 20th century. During the Holocaust, he lost many family members. Lemkin and others were responsible for the Genocide Convention, which was passed unanimously by the UN in 1948. In addition to the recently released UN report, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, as well as two prominent Israeli rights organizations, B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, declared that Israel's military actions in Gaza constitute genocide.
