Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2025 on Saturday 18 October at Church House and the Abbey Centre, Westminster. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION Genocide, Holocaust, Never Again. Phrases that once conjured up only one image: the Nazis' systematic attempt to eliminate the entire Jewish people and eradicate Jewish culture, identity and future generations of Jews from the face of the earth. It was once held that the Holocaust was unique in its horror with no precedent in history. Can we confidently say this view still holds today? Today, the word ‘holocaust' is increasingly used as a free-floating catch-all to describe many geopolitical events or even general human evil. Even Auschwitz, a death camp designed for the genocide of the Jews, has been turned into an all-purpose symbol of human cruelty. The proposed Learning Centre to be built as part of the controversial Holocaust Memorial in Victoria Garden, next to Parliament, promises a ‘high-tech immersive experience', expected to last only 45 minutes, that will reference a wide range of other international atrocities, such as Rwanda and colonial-era massacres, with the aim to promote equality and diversity in general. More specifically, these terms are being applied to the war in Gaza – particularly since Hamas's attack on 7 October 2023. Israelis are increasingly likened to Nazis, guilty of war crimes and ethnic cleansing, or settler-colonists aiming at the complete destruction and replacement of Palestinians and their culture. The United Nations, Amnesty International, Médecins Sans Frontières and countless individual governments have proclaimed a genocide in Gaza, a claim strongly denied by Israel and its supporters who condemn the veracity of these accusations and what they refer to as ‘Holocaust relativism'. In a new book, The World After Gaza, author Pankaj Mishra brings together the narratives of both the Holocaust and slavery-colonialism, arguing Nazism is simply the logical extension of colonialism. The Israeli government, according to Mishra, is guilty of both. Celebrity social-justice activist Naomi Klein wrote in the Guardian last year that we are entering a new intellectual era, one in which people are openly asking if the Holocaust should ‘be seen exclusively as a Jewish catastrophe, or something more universal'. Klein goes on to argue that perhaps the Holocaust was not ‘a unique rupture in European history' but rather ‘a homecoming of earlier colonial genocides'. What are the consequences of this ‘dejudification of the Holocaust', as Brendan O'Neill calls it in his recent book, After the Pogrom? How can the public, especially new generations, understand the true nature of this industrialised act of anti-Semitic barbarism – and to even remember that the Jews were the targets – when the Holocaust is wrenched out of its historical context? Are authors like Mishra and Klein right when they say it is this very sanctifying of the Holocaust in Western history that wilfully ignores crimes of equal magnitude, including what is happening in Gaza today? SPEAKERS Daniel Ben-Ami journalist; creator, Radicalism of Fools project on rethinking anti-Semitism; author, Ferraris for All: in defence of economic progress Naomi Gryn writer; filmmaker Samuel Rubinstein postgraduate historian and writer Dr Jake Wallis Simons author, Never Again?

Edo To Set Up Spl Court, Sign, Execute Cultist, Kidnapper's Deaths Speedily https://osazuwaakonedo.news/edo-to-set-up-spl-court-sign-execute-cultist-kidnappers-deaths-speedily/ #Amnesty #ANEEJ #Benin #Edo #Oshiomhole #Kano #Obaseki #Okpebholo #Police Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo has said the state government will set up special court for criminal proceedings inline with the existing laws for suspected secret cult members and kidnappers to be conducted within 2 or 3 weeks maximum, and if anyone is found guilty and sentenced to death accordingly, he will sign the death warrant and bring the condemned criminal or criminals to popular Ring Road area in Benin City for public execution so that such action will serve as deterrent to others, the Governor who probably have a good working relationship with one of the former governors of the state that started the recent execution of condemned criminals, Adams Oshiomhole made this known on Thursday when he visited the Headquarters of the Edo State Command of the Nigeria Police Force wherein some suspected kidnappers allegedly behind the shooting and abduction of a woman at a popular Vegetable market along Airport road in Benin City last Sunday were paraded before the governor and the Press, according to the Governor; "I will set up a special court to try cultists and kidnappers within 2 or 3 weeks and if found guilty, I would have no regret to sign their warrants, they would be executed at the Ring Road for others to learn a lesson, don't take my simplicity for granted”, for the record, the last time death warrant was signed and condemned criminals executed in Edo State, took place around 6:00am on December 23, 2016, few weeks after the then-Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki took over power and was then still in good working relationship with ex governor Adams Oshiomhole, three death row inmates were executed by hanging, namely: Ogbomoro Omoregie, Apostle Igene, and Mark Omosowhota and the execution took place at the Oko Prison of the Nigerian Correctional Service, the inmates had originally been sentenced to death by military tribunals under the Robbery and Firearms Decree during the era of military rule in Nigeria, Godwin Obaseki carried out the executions despite condemnation from Human rights groups, such as the Legal Defence and Assistance Project, LEDAP, who thus petitioned the governor for a stay of execution, saying, "These earmarked prisoners were sentenced by military tribunals under the Robbery and Firearms, Special Provisions, Decree 1971 as amended, in which there was no right of appeal, we have filed an appeal pending at the Court of Lagos seeking order that these prisoners have right of appeal under the 1999 Constitution, Death penalty is not universally prohibited but the second optional protocol to the United Nations International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights on Prohibition of the use of the death penalty ask state parties to amend their laws to abolish death as sentence for crime, not all states have ratified the protocol, to sign a treaty does not bind the state until it is ratified, Nigeria has not signed it”, it would be recalled that before the 2016 last execution of condemned criminals in the state, the immediate past and first execution in Edo State since Nigeria returned to Democratic rule in 1999 occurred on June 24, 2013, when former Governor Adams Oshiomhole signed the warrants to hang four inmates—Chima Ejiofor, Daniel Nsofor, Osarenmwinda Aiguokhan, and Richard Igagu—at the Benin City Custodial Centre along Sapele road, the execution was the first in Nigeria since the last incident in 2006 after the then Kano State Governor, Ibrahim Shekarau approved and carried out the execution of seven condemned criminals, Oshiomhole's action faced a lot of backlash from human rights community; Africa Network for Environment and Economic Justice, ANEEJ reiterated that the death penalty is an inhumane form of punishment and continued to advocate that Nigeria's laws should be amended to replace capital punishment with life imprisonment, even for high-level offences like corruption, while Amnesty International declared the executions "a truly dark day for human rights in Nigeria" and criticised Oshiomhole for ignoring the pending judicial appeal processes, this, other human rights organizations filed appeals and public campaigns, urging the Edo State government to halt the execution of the inmates because their legal options were not fully exhausted, but all to no avail as the condemened criminals were still executed, defending his action, the then-governor Oshiomhole said "I have no apologies because I did not sentence them to death, I am not the one who accused them; they were accused by those they harassed, they have been tried, they have taken advantage #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/osazuwaakonedo--4980924/support.Kindly support us for more productivity and efficiency in news delivery.Visit our donation page: DonateYou can also use our Mobile app for more news in different formats: CLICK TO DOWNDLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY STORE

Policeman To Face Murder For Tear-gassing Resident To Death In Edohttps://osazuwaakonedo.news/policeman-to-face-murder-for-tear-gassing-resident-to-death-in-edo/#Amnesty #Benin #Children #Ebojele #Edo #keke #Okpebholo #Police #UNBarely 48 hours after a serving police officer on May 25, 2026 at Uwelu area of Ogida quarters in Benin City tear-gas a resident to death, Matthew Akubo, a tricycle rider who is also said to be an ex police officer of an elderly age, a more devastating tragedy was apparently averted on May 27, 2026 at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium during the 2026 Children's Day Celebration when some security operatives used pepper spray on school children who came for the celebration, an action capable of causing death but the Chief Medical Director, Edo Specialist Hospital, Dr Anthonia Njoku denied and dismissed the claims that about 5 children died as a result of the incident, and the Edo Command of the Nigeria Police Force in a press statement failed to state if there was any death casualty or not, but stated that 4 persons including the seller of the pepper spray chemical substance have been arrested and detained in connection with the Children's Day incident, adding that, the policeman who caused the death of the tricycle rider has been in detention waiting to be arraigned for possible act of murder, this, our research study shows that the less lethal weapon of chemical substances like tear-gas and pepper spray may be seen as an act of deliberate murder or attempted murder if used on a closed range, enclosed enviroenment like hall; big or small because the chemical substances from our assessment are meant only to be used on a long range open air outdoor spaces where people have alternatives means to run and leave the contaminated areas and inline with global standard on the use of the chemical substances, tear gas is never meant to be used on vulnerable populations or individuals with medical conditions, as international bodies like the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, OHCHR and health organizations warn it can cause permanent injury, severe complications, or death, in addition, the chemical causes instant airway constriction that can trigger fatal respiratory failure in people with asthma or COPD—a severe risk that prompted the American Thoracic Society, ATS to call for a total moratorium on its use, because, simultaneously, the intense physical stress can induce cardiac arrest in those with heart disease, as documented by Physicians for Human Rights, PHR, and according to strict deployment standards from Amnesty International, infants and young children face significantly higher risks because their developing lungs breathe faster, and heavy gas vapors settle near the ground, pregnant individuals face severe risks of premature labor or miscarriage, a danger highlighted in field reports by National Nurses United and reproductive toxicology data published by the National Institutes of Health, NIH, also, the elderly suffer prolonged tissue damage due to a reduced physical ability to flee, and finally, the American Lung Association warns that people with eye conditions—especially contact lens wearers—can suffer chemical burns and permanent vision loss from trapped toxins, though legally, while the Chemical Weapons Convention, CWC permits domestic law enforcement usage, the UN Guidance on Less-Lethal Weapons explicitly dictates that police operations must give special consideration to these protected groups to avoid unlawful, disproportionate force. #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/osazuwaakonedo--4980924/support.Kindly support us for more productivity and efficiency in news delivery.Visit our donation page: DonateYou can also use our Mobile app for more news in different formats: CLICK TO DOWNDLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY STORE

Both are globally known civil society leaders. In this conversation, Kumi and Amitabh reflect on weaving love, solidarity and justice in activism amid rising authoritarianism, polarization, economic inequality and climate crisis. Kumi talks about the need to reframe our messaging to avoid "us versus them" and to build bridges to people beyond existing movements and to avoid pessimism. Amitabh stresses the need to combine love with structural change and justice and to confront patriarchal institutional cultures that undermine internal change. The episode ends with a cautious but hopeful call for bold, systemic rethinking of movement strategy. Please listen in and send us your thoughts!
Sam Fahd Abu Haikal aveva sette mesi e ancora doveva muovere i primi passi. Il 5 giugno era seduto in braccio a sua madre, sul sedile posteriore dell'auto di famiglia, a Tel Rumeida, Hebron. Un proiettile dei soldati israeliani lo ha ucciso lì, in braccio. L'esercito ha spiegato di aver esploso colpi singoli contro un veicolo che sembrava accelerare e di aver aperto un'inchiesta. Il padre, docente all'Università di Betlemme, ha risposto a Vatican News: «Ci hanno detto che è stato un errore ma niente di tutto ciò si può definire errore. Ora vogliamo giustizia». Il 10 giugno l'Unicef ha messo in fila il resto: otto bambini uccisi e 17 feriti nello scorso fine settimana in cinque diverse località della Striscia di Gaza. In una delle zone colpite, un gruppo di bambini che giocava a calcio è stato ferito da un attacco vicino. Tutto sotto un cessate il fuoco in vigore dall'ottobre 2025: già il 6 febbraio l'agenzia ONU per l'infanzia contava 37 bambini uccisi a Gaza dall'inizio del 2026. La tregua, per i bambini, ha la stessa traiettoria dei proiettili che dovrebbe fermare. E intanto a Bengasi le autorità libiche hanno prorogato per la seconda volta la detenzione dei dieci volontari del Global Sumud Land Convoy, tra cui gli italiani Domenico Centrone e Dina Alberizia, fermati il 24 maggio mentre portavano aiuti verso Gaza. Amnesty International il 10 giugno ne ha chiesto la liberazione: per giorni la sorte di otto di loro è rimasta nascosta, un diabetico resta senza medicine regolari. Edouard Beigbeder, direttore regionale Unicef per il Medio Oriente e il Nord Africa, ha scritto: "Non possiamo permettere che questa diventi la nuova normalità: la morte di bambini a causa della violenza dovrebbe suscitare indignazione a livello mondiale". A Tel Rumeida l'inchiesta dell'esercito risulta aperta. Sam aveva sette mesi. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.
Fakhri Abu Diab vive in una casa mobile piantata sulle macerie della sua casa, demolita dalle autorità israeliane nel febbraio 2024 ad al-Bustan, Gerusalemme est. Anche la casa mobile ha già l'ordine di rimozione. «Cercano di cancellare i miei ricordi, la mia infanzia, la mia storia», dice all'Associated Press, che il 10 giugno ha documentato la macchina amministrativa dell'espulsione: oltre 260 strutture palestinesi demolite nel 2025, il 70% in più di tre anni prima, e già 116 nel 2026, secondo l'organizzazione israeliana Ir Amim. «Israele può decidere: sì, questo quartiere vogliamo cancellarlo. Nessuno ci fermerà», dice ad AP il suo ricercatore Aviv Tatarsky. L'anno scorso sono stati approvati quasi 9.000 permessi edilizi per i residenti ebrei di Gerusalemme e meno di 700 per i palestinesi, che sono il 40% della città (dati Bimkom). Chi costruisce senza permesso, perché il permesso gli è negato, riceve il bulldozer. A marzo, registra B'Tselem, il quartiere di Batan al-Hawah ha contato il numero più alto di sfratti da decenni: 15 famiglie fuori, i coloni dentro. La magistratura israeliana risponde per iscritto che i tribunali decidono "nel merito di ogni singolo caso". I numeri sopra dicono come finisce il merito. E intanto a Bengasi resta annullata senza preavviso l'udienza per i dieci del Land Convoy, tra cui gli italiani Domenico Centrone e Leonarda Alberizia: all'avvocato le autorità libiche hanno indicato un indirizzo sbagliato del luogo di detenzione, denuncia la portavoce Maria Elena Delia, e Amnesty International il 10 giugno ne ha chiesto la liberazione. Ad AP il direttore dell'organizzazione di coloni Ateret Cohanim, Daniel Luria, consegna la frase che chiude ogni pratica: «Non ci sarà mai uno Stato palestinese». #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Al termine del G8 di Genova, il 21 luglio 2001, ci fu quella che Amnesty International definì come «la più grave sospensione dei diritti umani e democratici in un paese occidentale dal dopoguerra». Furono i pestaggi compiuti dalla polizia nella scuola Diaz, dove alloggiavano giornalisti e manifestanti del Genoa Social Forum - in gran parte stranieri. Le torture proseguirono nella caserma di Bolzaneto, dove molte di queste persone furono portate dopo l'arresto. Erano manifestanti pacifici e giornalisti: di quelle 93 persone, nessun arresto fu poi convalidato, e in 80 casi l'arresto risultò illegittimo. Nel frattempo, 82 di loro avevano avuto bisogno di cure mediche dopo i pestaggi, e 62 erano state trasportate in ospedale. In questa puntata di Altre Indagini non c'è solo quello che accadde quella notte: ci sono gli episodi violenti dei primi giorni del G8, la percezione di chi avrebbe dovuto garantire l'ordine che per non mostrarsi debole fossero necessari molti arresti, non importa di chi. E il modo in cui quegli eventi furono raccontati dalla stampa, e i processi che seguirono. Altre Indagini è il podcast di Stefano Nazzi che ogni due mesi racconta una delle grandi vicende della storia italiana, con gli stessi approcci e rigori applicati alla cronaca nera in Indagini.

Het is opnieuw raak tussen de VS en Iran. De Amerikanen hebben luchtaanvallen uitgevoerd op Iran, als vergelding voor de helikopter-crash waar Iran achter zou zitten. Als reactie daarop voert Iran op haar beurt weer aanvallen uit op Amerikaanse bases in Bahrein, Koeweit en Jordanië. Komen Iran en VS in een nieuwe geweldsspiraal die het einde van het staakt-het-vuren betekent? En doet Israël? We vragen het arabist Leo Kwarten. (09:05) Elke dag protest in Woodstock, Vermont Komend weekend zijn er in de VS, als Trump 80 jaar wordt, weer 'No Kings'-protesten gepland. Maar in het plaatsje Woodstock, in Vermont gaat een groepje bewoners al bijna 500 dagen achter elkaar de straat op om te demonstreren tegen het beleid van president Trump. Collega Laila Frank nam er een kijkje en maakte een reportage. (15:23) Het einde van een Palestijns dorp Op de Westelijke Jordaanoever treden kolonisten steeds gewelddadiger op. Het gaat niet om een paar rotte appels, schrijft Amnesty International in een nieuw rapport, maar om een door de staat gesteund patroon van etnische zuivering. Zo kan het gebeuren dat hele dorpen volledig verdwijnen, zoals de Bedoeïenengemeenschap Zanuta. Daarover Dagmar Oudshoorn, directeur van Amnesty International Nederland.

Most nonprofits treat email like a megaphone. They show up loud when they need donations and go completely quiet in between. Katelyn Baughan has worked with UNHCR, Amnesty International, the Trevor Project, and the National Breast Cancer Foundation, and she has seen this pattern cost nonprofits thousands in unrealized donations.Her fix: stop thinking about campaigns and start building infrastructure.In less than 20 minutes, Katelyn walks you through the automated email system that works in the background to build donor relationships, nurture loyalty, and raise more money, even when you're not hitting send.
A big part of where I see shifts happening in education systems is encouraging young people to get out into the world, into their communities and make a difference to issues that they care about. There is so much learning that can happen in this process. I have shared a few episodes in the past with fantastic people like Cathrine Berger-Kaye, Daniela Papi-Thornton and Zoe Weil, supporting young people and educators in this kind of work. But there are also some fascinating and important considerations to be aware of when we step into this work, so that we really have the impact that we are hoping to, and don't replicate past harms and unhelpful patterns. My guest this week, Anthea Lawson, has been working on the front line of this kind of work for decades and has learned through her own experience just how complex and entangled these issues are that we care about doing something about. And she has been sharing her gathered wisdom on it in her previous book The Entangled Activist, and very excitingly her new book, out this week, ‘How Not to Save the World: Doing good without annoying everyone'. George Monbiot has described it as a wise, rich and crucial book! And I can certainly recommend it myself. As a journalist, campaigner and writer, Anthea Lawson has fought for many issues over three decades including controls on the arms trade and an end to the financial secrecy offered by tax havens. She helped launch a campaign for transparency over company ownership which resulted in changes to the law in dozens of countries. After training as a journalist at The Times, she worked for campaign groups including Global Witness and Amnesty International.Her writing helps people who want to change the world think about the psychological, spiritual and philosophical foundations of what they're doing, what's getting in the way, and how they can be more effective.LinksAnthea's website: https://www.anthealawson.uk/'How Not to Save the World' Book: https://www.anthealawson.uk/how-not-to-save-the-world'The Entangled Activist' Book: https://www.anthealawson.uk/the-entangled-activistLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthea-lawson/ Don't Talk About Politics: How to Change 21st-Century Minds by Sarah Stein Lubrano: https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/dont-talk-about-politics-9781399413916/More info about the Antidebate: https://systems-souls-society.com/praxis/antidebate/
There are calls for an independent regulator to police the online world and demand more transparency, accountability and safety. In an open letter to the government, an unlikely group of bedfellows has raised concerns about what it describes as harmful, deceptive, and destabilising activity often enabled or amplified by digital platforms. The National Council of Women, The Banking Association, various media and Arts organisations and academics are among the signatories. Amnesty International signed the letter, campaign director Lisa Woods spoke to Lisa Owen.

Amnesty International says it's entirely possible for New Zealand to take on big tech. Several media companies, industry groups and other organisations have signed an Amnesty open letter, calling for a stronger crack down on digital platforms like TikTok and Facebook. They're calling for an independent regulator to manage risks like fraud, extremist content, and misinformation. Amnesty International NZ Movement Building & Advocacy Director Lisa Woods told Heather du Plessis-Allan we already hold other big companies to account. She says they want big tech platforms to face requirements such as a duty of care, to identify and reduce risks, and explain how their systems work.

Last week, the American government charged the former Cuban leader, Raúl Castro, with conspiracy to kill US nationals. They accuse him of playing a part in the downing of two planes in 1996, which were flying between Cuba and Florida. This comes after months of the US putting increasing pressure on the country. In January, President Trump threatened to impose tariffs on any country who supplied oil to the island, resulting in huge energy shortages ever since, with some parts of the country being without power for 22 hours a day. But Cubans have been living under a strict trade embargo for decades, so they are not unfamiliar with such hardships. José Carlos Cueto López of BBC Mundo is from Cuba, and knows exactly what it's like for people living in such challenging circumstances. The UN says that at least 32 political prisoners have been executed in Iran since February this year. The UN's Human Rights Office has warned that the death penalty is increasingly being used to silence political dissent. Last year, Iran carried out 2,159 executions according to Amnesty International, the highest number since 1981. The Iranian government says that the vast majority are for drugs related offenses or murder. Ghoncheh Habibiazad of BBC Persian has been trying to find out more about the political prisoners who've been executed this year, and she told me about her findings.The Fifth Floor is at the heart of global storytelling on the BBC World Service, bringing you the best stories from journalists in the BBC's 43 language services. We're here to help you make sense of the stories making headlines around the world; to excite your curiosity and to get to grips with the facts. Recent episodes have investigated Russia's youth armies and how they make soldiers of Ukrainian children; featured the BBC team who were the first journalists to the site of the Nigerian school kidnappings and reflected the effects of internet blackouts in Iran, Uganda and India.

A United Nations commission, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have all separately concluded that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, where tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed since the start of the war in October 2023. The cultural life of the enclave is also profoundly threatened, with historic buildings destroyed and writers, poets and academics among that huge death toll.
The LSE Middle East Centre hosted the launch of Richard Barltrop's paper, 'Sudan's Current War: A Longer View on Peacemaking and Prospects'. This hybrid event launched a new paper examining the ongoing war in Sudan, which broke out in 2023. Drawing on lessons from the history of peacemaking in Sudan and comparative insights from other civil wars, the paper reflects on pathways toward ending the conflict, including the urgency of de-escalation, the need for sustained, long-term peacebuilding efforts, and the importance of Sudanese leadership and ownership in shaping a durable peace process. Richard will be joined by discussants Raga Makawi and Abdel Salam Sidahmad, and the event will be chaired by LSE's Laura Mann.

Robert meets Belfast-born Kathryn Ferguson is an Emmy and BAFTA nominated, BIFA and IFTA winning director whose innovative and boundary-pushing documentary work has screened globally. We explore art as activism and how film has the power to reveal, and more widely share, untold stories. Kathryn studied at Central Saint Martins and the Royal College of Art, and in 2022 was awarded the inaugural BFI & Chanel Award for Creative Audacity. In 2018, Kathryn's short documentary Taking the Waters premiered at Sheffield Doc Fest, and was long-listed for a BAFTA. Then, in 2021, Kathryn worked with Passion Pictures on the short Space to Be for The Guardian's acclaimed documentary series. After a decade of short-form work centred on identity, gender politics, and community, Kathryn recently completed her debut feature documentary Nothing Compares - which takes as its subject Sinéad O'Connor's artistry and activism. The film premiered at Sundance Film Festival 2022 then toured the international festival circuit, where it picked up multiple awards, before hitting cinemas in October 2022. It has received over thirty award nominations internationally, including Emmy, Critics Choice, IDA, and PGA Awards, and was awarded winner of Best Feature Documentary at BIFA 2022 and IFTA 2023. Nothing Compares is now available to watch on Showtime and Sky. Her second feature, Bogart: Life Comes in Flashes (Universal), was released in US cinemas in 2024. In 2024 she also co-founded Tara Films with producer Eleanor Emptage; their latest, Blue Road - The Edna O'Brien Story, premiered at TIFF 2024, and the company is currently developing a slate of non-fiction and drama projects. Alongside her film work, Ferguson has directed campaigns for Nike, Selfridges, Amnesty International, and Air France, and collaborated with artists such as Lady Gaga and Neneh Cherry. Nostalgie, Kathryn's first drama short starring Aiden Gillen, about a faded 80's pop star, has recently been nominated for a BAFTA and won Best Short Film at the IFTAs 2026. The film is available to watch on Channel 4. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The U.S. government and private mining corporations are ignoring the rights of tribes to free, prior, and informed consent when it comes to lithium mining in Nevada, according to a new report by Amnesty International. The report comes amid the Trump administration’s fast tracking of metals and minerals extraction. With more than 20,000 active mining claims across the state, tribes are having to weigh how every new proposal would impact their communities. The Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals agreed with the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska that the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) applies to remains buried at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, which is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army. The decision gets the tribe one step closer to repatriating two children from the oldest Indian boarding school, and could establish legal precedent for federal agencies to comply with NAGPRA in the future. GUESTS Chairman Coly Brown (Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska) Beth Margaret Wright (Laguna Pueblo), senior staff attorney with the Native American Rights Fund Fermina Stevens (Te-Moak Tribe of Western Shoshone), executive director of the Western Shoshone Defense Project Clifford Banuelos (Te-Moak Tribe of the Western Shoshone), tribal-state environmental liaison for the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada Break 1 Music: Chant Ancestral (song) Geneviève Gros-Louis (artist) Break 2 Music: Traditional Side Step Song (song) Little Otter (artist) Side Step Songs (album)
D'après Amnesty International, c'est l'une des régions « les plus polluées de la planète ». Dans le sud du Nigeria, le delta du fleuve Niger est une éponge à pétrole, mais c'est aussi un désastre écologique. Ce mardi 19 mai, les ONG veulent profiter de l'assemblée générale des actionnaires de la compagnie pétrolière Shell, qui se tient à Londres, pour alerter sur les dangers de cette marée noire. Kathryn Nwajiaku-Dahou, chercheuse britannique d'origine nigériane, enquête sur ce fléau depuis trente ans. Aujourd'hui, elle est l'une des cadres du think tank ODI Global, basé à Londres. Les ONG veulent profiter de l'assemblée générale des actionnaires de Shell ce mardi à Londres pour alerter l'opinion sur la pollution du delta du fleuve Niger. Mais est-ce que les actions de dépollution, de nettoyage, n'ont pas quand même commencé à produire leurs effets ces dernières années ? Kathryn Nwajiaku-Dahou : J'ai eu l'occasion d'être à la tête d'une commission d'enquête qui, pendant cinq ans, a cherché à documenter le problème et a fait des recommandations il y a deux ans pour que Shell et d'autres compagnies nettoient avec des coûts assez précis. Depuis la publication de ce rapport-là, pour ce qui est au moins de l'État de Bayelsa, un État qui produit au moins un quart du pétrole au Nigeria, rien n'a été fait. Donc, je crois que les ONG, elles ont raison d'alerter, surtout à un moment où les compagnies comme Shell notent des profits incroyables à la suite de la guerre récente en Iran. Et je crois qu'il est temps de commencer réellement le nettoyage qu'il faut. Alors, vous dites que rien n'a été fait dans l'État de Bayelsa, est-ce que quand même des actions ont été faites dans d'autres États comme l'État de Rivers ? Certainement, à Bodo, suite à un accord à l'amiable entre certaines communautés vivant à Bodo, il y a eu le début d'un processus de nettoyage. Mais l'État de Rivers et la région du Bodo représentent un pourcentage infime de l'échelle du problème. À l'origine des marées noires, il y aurait dans 83% des cas des fuites provoquées par les voleurs de pétrole, dit l'agence Nosdra, qui est l'agence fédérale chargée d'identifier les fuites de pétrole. Qu'est-ce que vous en pensez ? Je crois que ces chiffres-là sont des faux chiffres, tout simplement, et j'ai des preuves. Parce que la manière dont Nosdra enquête sur l'origine, la provenance des fuites est très suspecte. Nosdra dépend des compagnies en général. Nosdra dépend à 100% de la logistique des compagnies pour pouvoir enquêter. Donc, nous, on trouve que les statistiques de Nosdra sont très biaisées. Et certes, ça ne veut pas dire qu'il n'y a pas une partie des fuites liées aux voleurs, au vol, mais là, pour la plupart, il s'agit d'une infrastructure dilapidée, pas suffisamment entretenue, qui est à l'origine d'un problème endémique dans le delta du Niger, où on a une infrastructure qui date dans certains cas de 60 ans. Donc, c'est trop facile de mettre tout ça sur les épaules des voleurs, parce que, souvent, il a été trop courant de parler du problème de la pollution dans le delta comme un problème de sabotage et de criminalité. Moi, je recadrerais en disant que les compagnies pétrolières qui sont au Nigeria, pour la plupart depuis 70 ans, ont la responsabilité première. Depuis quelques années, Shell essaie de vendre la plupart de ses actifs pétroliers dans le delta à une compagnie nigériane, Renaissance. Est-ce que vous ne craignez pas qu'avec ce nouvel exploitant pétrolier les opérations de nettoyage soient encore plus compliquées ? Certainement. Depuis dix ans, Shell, Eni et d'autres essaient de vendre leurs licences d'abord et maintenant leurs actions. Ce qui est intéressant pourtant, ces sociétés n'ont pas vendu à une compagnie dans le cas de Shell, elles ont vendu à un consortium de cinq compagnies. Et pour pouvoir accéder à cette vente, c'est Shell qui a prêté 70% des fonds à ces compagnies qui se sont mises en consortium pour acheter. Donc, est-ce qu'on peut parler d'une vraie vente ou pas ? Ça, c'est de un. Et de deux, dans les tribunaux en Angleterre actuellement, cet argument que, une fois que la compagnie vend ses actions, la compagnie n'est plus responsable, cet argument a été démontré faux. Shell reste, malgré la vente, « liable », justiciable, redevable par rapport aux pollutions liées à ces infrastructures avant la vente. Certes, on a des exemples où les nouvelles compagnies sont encore moins réactives que Shell ou Eni par le passé, mais je trouve que les multinationales, comme Shell et Eni, sont toujours impliquées dedans. Donc, Shell ne va pas si facilement échapper à ses responsabilités devant les tribunaux britanniques ? C'est ce qu'on va voir, on attend le jugement. Je crois que c'est l'année prochaine, en mars 2027. Mais ce n'est pas une chose aussi claire et facile d'imaginer qu'une fois qu'on vend les actions, qu'on va s'extirper, s'exonérer de ses responsabilités envers les populations du delta.

President Trump has again issued a warning to Iran amid stalled peace negotiations - saying unless they act quickly to agree a deal, there won't be anything left of them. Tehran says the US has failed to make any concrete concessions to bring about an end to the war. Also: Rwanda tightens its border security as neighbouring DRC struggles to contain a deadly Ebola outbreak; Amnesty International highlights Iran's increasing use of the death penalty; Russian civilians are shocked by Ukrainian drone attacks; Britain's royal guards allegedly fall asleep on the job; and are street preachers a blessing or a curse?

President Donald Trump said on Friday that Taiwan was a major topic of discussion during his summit with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping and added that he had not yet decided whether to proceed with a major U.S. arms package for the island.Trump also said he thinks Xi is seriously considering releasing detained pastor Ezra Jin in China, but that the case of jailed media tycoon Jimmy Lai "is a tough one." Lai was sentenced to 20 years in jail in what Amnesty International calls a "travesty of justice" and an attack on press freedom.

Politika začenja teden, ko naj bi nastajajoča koalicija po napovedih uskladila koalicijsko pogodbo, s potrditvijo interventnega zakona za razvoj pa začela preusmerjati gospodarsko in zdravstveno politiko. Državni zbor bo že danes na izredni seji obravnaval zakon, ki so ga vložili Demokrati, stranka Resnica in trojček okoli NSi, podpira pa ga še SDS. Sprožil je burne odzive v politiki, med socialnimi partnerji in v ključnih državnih blagajnah.

In FOLLOW UP, the guys marvel at the completely normal state of America as Amnesty International issues a travel advisory for the 2026 World Cup because apparently “visiting the United States” now comes with the same vibe as backpacking through a failed cyberpunk state. Then it's onto Dead Podcast Theory, where more than a third of all new podcasts are AI-generated “podslop,” proving Silicon Valley heard “everyone has a podcast” and responded with “what if nobody did?” Meanwhile, Ticketmaster reminds everyone that if you've purchased a concert ticket since 2010, there's probably a class action settlement with your name on it and enough compensation for half a convenience fee.IN THE NEWS is basically one long panic attack sponsored by AI. The White House is considering regulating AI models, Canada says OpenAI vacuumed up everyone's personal data like a drunk Roomba, Character.AI allegedly impersonated a licensed psychiatrist, and Mother Jones found ChatGPT still happily helping aspiring mass shooters workshop their plans. Snap's Perplexity deal died quietly in a ditch while Meta keeps assembling humanoid robots like it's building the world's most annoying version of Westworld. Then GameStop tries to buy eBay in the dumbest sentence ever typed, Ryan Cohen gets himself banned from eBay while trying to meme-finance the deal, Elon Musk settles with the SEC for pocket lint money, Coinbase fires people because “AI,” Toto accidentally becomes a semiconductor giant through toilet technology, and smart glasses officially evolve from creepy gadget to extortion accessory.MEDIA CANDY brings some relief with Daredevil: Born Again and Widow's Bay. The Academy finally decides AI-generated actors and scripts can't win Oscars, which feels like the bare minimum required to stop ChatGPT from getting Best Supporting Actor before Willem Dafoe.In APPS & DOODADS, Pornhub returns to the UK thanks to Apple's age verification system, Ask.com finally dies and takes Jeeves with it into the great dial-up tone in the sky, and Apple agrees to pay users because “Apple Intelligence” arrived somewhere between vaporware and wishful thinking.Finally, THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE tackles the true meaning of “decimate,” AI-powered C-3PO heads, mechanical keyboards for grown men who refuse to use laptop keys, Maul: Shadow Lord, The Boys, and a reminder that Solo was a great movie, grocery store adventures, lost AirPods, and the eternal mystery of why middle-aged dudes become furries.

Noam Dworman is joined by Professor Gerald Steinberg. Steinberg breaks down the hidden world of NGOs—what they are, how they gained massive global influence and why he believes many have drifted far from their original mission. From organizations like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch to their role at the United Nations, Steinberg argues that these groups now act as powerful political players shaping narratives around conflicts like Israel–Palestine. Gerald Steinberg is founder and president of NGO Monitor and Professor at Bar Ilan University. His research focuses on Middle East diplomacy and Israeli security, and the politics of human rights and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Prestigious grants and prizes include Israel Science Foundation, Bonei Zion Prize (2017) and the Bernard Lewis Prize in 2025. https://x.com/GeraldNGOM
This week, Remington is currently suffering without air conditioning, so Shaun had no other choice than to grab Dylan from his cage & force him to choose an anime to watch based on a single descriptor. Meanwhile Dylan somehow manages to bring up Amnesty International. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to AnimeOutOfContext@gmail.com.

La première partie de notre émission est consacrée à l'actualité. Nous commencerons par commenter le rapport annuel d'Amnesty International, qui critique vivement les dirigeants d'Israël, de la Russie et des États-Unis jugés responsables de l'érosion des droits humains dans le monde. Notre discussion suivante portera sur la situation énergétique de la Chine dans le contexte de la crise énergétique mondiale due à la guerre en Iran. La Chine semble être dans une bien meilleure situation que les autres pays. Notre section scientifique traitera d'une étude selon laquelle l'utilisation de l'intelligence artificielle pour des tâches cognitives élémentaires peut diminuer les capacités intellectuelles d'une personne en à peine 10 minutes. Et pour conclure la première partie de l'émission, nous parlerons de la vague d'images et de mèmes générés par l'IA présentant Donald Trump comme une icône culturelle, qui caractérisent sa présence en ligne et sa stratégie politique. Le reste de l'émission d'aujourd'hui sera consacré à la langue et à la culture françaises. Notre point de grammaire de la semaine sera : The Conjunctions of Coordination. Nous parlerons d'un dessin animé des années 1980 qui a eu un grand succès lors de sa sortie. Il est rediffusé en ce moment sur une chaîne payante dans une version restaurée en haute définition. Nous terminerons avec l'expression de la semaine : Ne pas y aller avec le dos de la cuillère. Nous parlerons de la volonté du gouvernement français d'appliquer la méthode « Notre Dame de Paris » à de nombreuses procédures, afin de simplifier et d'accélérer la mise en œuvre de projets industriels et économiques. Mais en quoi consisterait exactement cette méthode ? - Amnesty International condamne les dirigeants des États-Unis, d'Israël et de la Russie - Le choc pétrolier mondial met à l'épreuve la politique énergétique écologique à long terme de la Chine - L'utilisation de l'IA peut entraîner un déclin cognitif - Les mèmes représentant Trump en Jésus ou en pape annoncent-ils une nouvelle ère en politique ? - Le dessin animé Ulysse 31 revient à la télévision - La France veut adopter la méthode « Notre Dame de Paris »
John's monologue in this episode: after voters in Virginia chose a Democrat-led voting district map, a Republican judge woke up and said “not on my watch.” Apparently, the fate of the midterms will be determined in the courts. Then, he discusses Amnesty International's annual report, "The State of the World's Human Rights". Spoiler Alert - USA gets a failing grade and there are calls for resistance in this pivotal moment for humanity. Then, John welcomes the return of Bob Cesca and they chat about redistricting, the midterms, and Trump's tariff refunds. Next, Dillion Naber Cruz of The God Squad joins the show to talk about the evils of White Christian Nationalists. And closing it up, legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson speaks with John and listeners about SCOTUS and Trump's courtroom issues.

Im ersten Teil unseres Programms geht es wie immer um aktuelle Ereignisse. Wir beginnen mit einem Gespräch über den Jahresbericht von Amnesty International, in dem die Regierungschefs Israels, Russlands und der USA scharf kritisiert werden. Ihnen wird die Missachtung von Menschenrechten vorgeworfen. Anschließend diskutieren wir über die Energiesituation in China vor dem Hintergrund der weltweiten Energiekrise, die durch den Krieg im Iran ausgelöst wurde. Es scheint, dass China in einer deutlich besseren Situation ist als andere Länder. Unser Wissenschaftsteil ist einer Studie gewidmet, die zu dem Ergebnis kam, dass der Einsatz von künstlicher Intelligenz für einfache kognitive Aufgaben die intellektuellen Fähigkeiten einer Person bereits nach 10 Minuten beeinträchtigen kann. Und zum Schluss unseres ersten Teils sprechen wir darüber, wie eine Flut von KI-generierten Bildern und Memes, die Donald Trump als kulturelle Ikone zeigen, zu einem Markenzeichen seiner Online-Präsenz und seiner politischen Strategie geworden ist. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Word Order (Part 3): Subordinate Clauses. Jedes Jahr findet in einer kleinen Gemeinde in Norddeutschland das größte Metal-Festival der Welt statt. Vor oder während des Festivals kommt es regelmäßig zu starken Regenfällen. Einmal musste es deshalb sogar fast abgesagt werden. Doch dieses Jahr soll das „Wacken Open Air" dem Schlamm trotzen. Eine im März durchgeführte Befragung zur Einstufung der Freundlichkeit und der Höflichkeit der Länder kam zu dem Schluss, dass Deutsche für höflich, aber nicht für herzlich gehalten werden. Wir gehen auf Nummer sicher und diskutieren, ob Studien dieser Art überhaupt etwas wert sind. Auf Nummer sicher gehen ist auch die Redewendung dieser Woche. Amnesty International kritisiert die Regierungschefs der USA, Israels und Russlands Weltweite Ölkrise stellt Chinas Langzeit-Strategie für erneuerbare Energien auf die Probe Generative KI kann zu kognitivem Verfall führen Memes mit Trump als Jesus oder Papst – ein Zeichen für eine neue Ära in der Politik? Wacken wird schlammsicher Die Deutschen, so schlimm wie ihr Ruf?
