Podcast appearances and mentions of Amy Goodman

"Mar-a-Lago face" is what happens to white women when they try to secure proximity to power by joining a death cult. Feminist icon Soraya Chemaly, author of All We Want is Everything: How We Dismantle Male Supremacy and Rage Becomes Her, joins Gaslit Nation to discuss why MAGA women want to look like the plastic morphing faces in Soundgarden's cinematic masterpiece for "Black Hole Sun."  Andrea and Soraya discuss how to bash the patriarchy, and what perks are in it for the men if we succeed. We also look at what the system does to boys, stripping them of their humanity. Male supremacy convinces boys and men that they are entitled to the three pillars of masculine socialization: providing and protecting and presiding, which requires a woman who cannot provide, cannot protect herself, and does not decide. The research shows that women who wear makeup at work get paid more, because it signals such compliance. We also discuss the progressive Brooklyn moms who may be unknowingly raising incels; the expiration dates of the trad wife economy when the credit card gets cut off; the SAVE America Act coming for married women's voter registrations; and the pornographic rape culture behind media's ominous pivot to short videos. When even Amy Goodman wears eye-shadow, that's when we know it's time to double-down on our rage and resistance.

On today's show, host Esty Dinur is joined by Amy Goodman and Tia Lessin to highlight their new documentary, Steal This Story, Please!. The film will screen at The Barrymore Theatre on Saturday, September 5 at 7:30 pm.  The film presents Goodman's career in journalism alongside touchpoints from Democracy Now!'s broadcast repertoire, like their early coverage of brutality in East Timor. The title Steal This Story, Please! comes from Goodman's desire for Democracy Now!'s reporting to travel far and wide. Lessin calls it a “plucky” title that also describes the public's right to truth and accountability. Over the years, the Democracy Now! team has seen their reporting lead to positive change, yet there have been times when it couldn't do so. They share memories of Dolly Parton and other musicians who have played on Democracy Now! over the years and how their family histories shape their work and values. Mainly, they discuss the importance of independent media. For Goodman and Lessin, amplifying voices, bearing witness, and mentoring other journalists make this work a moral practice. Goodman says that the media like Democracy Now! And WORT gives voice to the “silenced majority.” Amy Goodman is the host and executive producer of Democracy Now!, a national, daily, independent, award-winning news program airing on over 1,400 public television and radio stations worldwide. Tia Lessin is an Academy Award nominated filmmaker. Along with Carl Deal, she founded Elsewhere Films in 2007 to create documentary films of cultural relevance, social purpose and artistic integrity.

The genocide of Palestinians, carried out by the Israeli army with backing from the US and the British state, has lead to an almighty breakdown in public trust in the West. Now more than ever, citizens are turning away from establishment media sources in search of journalism that more closely resembles the world as we see it.  This week on Downstream, Ash Sarkar sits down with Amy Goodman, veteran journalist and founder of Democracy Now!, one of the leading independent media organisations in the US. Goodman is the subject of a new film, Steal This Story, Please!, which documents her storied career covering some of the most consequential moments in American living history. She has confronted sitting presidents, bore firsthand witness to 9/11, survived a firing squad in East Timor and exposed major corporate crime in the Niger Delta. What drives Amy to do the work she does – shining light on humanity's darkness, decade after decade? How did her Jewish upbringing in Brooklyn inform her work? What does good journalism look like to her? Why does she believe we all need to re-learn the lost art of disagreement? And does she think American democracy can survive?

This week, the State Department published a report accusing Cuba of being the “capital of 21st-century communism,” and of plotting an anti-American revolution. On this week's On the Media, why the Trump administration can't stop invoking Cuba as its “communist” bogeyman. Plus, hear from a former flight attendant turned independent journalist, who is doggedly covering ICE's removal flights. [01:00]  Brooke Gladstone looks at how President Trump and his allies are using dehumanizing language and the specter of communism — seemingly inspired by far right provocateur Jack Posobiec — to try to discredit all Democrats leading up to the midterm elections. Gil Duran, journalist and author of The Nerd Reich, explains the connection.  [08:47] The State Department released a report this week about the threat that Cuba poses to the United States, listing everyone from Mayors Zohran Mamdani and Karen Bass, journalist Amy Goodman, to a co-founder of Ben & Jerry's as agents of Cuban influence. Brooke sits down with Michael J. Bustamante, associate professor of Cuban and Cuban-American history at the University of Miami, to talk about the cherry-picked historical scholarship in the report, and the role that the Cuba bogeyman plays in American politics today. [31:25] Micah Loewinger speaks with Gillian Brockell, independent journalist and former flight attendant who is covering ICE flights and third-country removals. Brockell explains why all ICE flights, domestic and international, are unsafe, and how the Trump administration is trying to skirt around judges' orders by sending asylum seekers to countries, often far-flung, that they didn't come from.     Further reading / watching: “Why Trump Keeps Talking About Communism: The 'Unhumans' Playbook,” by Gil Duran Cuban Memory Wars: Retrospective Politics in Revolution and Exile, by Michael J.
