Inept autocrats. Baby Hitler. Osama Bin Laden's favorite soccer team.  These are just a few of the many topics that Mehdi and Adam Friedland talked about on the new episode of 'We're Not Kidding'. The comedian and host of the wildly popular YouTube talk show, 'The Adam Friedland Show', sat down with Mehdi in New York City for a chaotic yet vulnerable conversation about Israel, U.S. politics, and some of Adam's most viral interviews. But first, Mehdi needed to argue about the World Cup.    Even though they come from different backgrounds, Mehdi and Adam bond over their shared profession of interviewing defensive politicians. One of Adam's most viral interviews, with Bronx Congressman Ritchie "AIPAC Guy" Torres, was of particular interest to Mehdi. "You got very emotional there. Did he make you like that? Did the situation in Gaza make you like that?" Mehdi asks.  And that's just the tip of the iceberg. The two also discuss: Adam's family history in South Africa. How Stephen Miller might have turned into a fascist (he and Adam went to school together). Trump's influence on the World Cup.  Adam's experience working in an Israeli ambulance service. Getting Scott Jennings to admit he's a "performer." Whether Adam should run for president. And many, many, many, other things… This interview was published 7 days earlier on Zeteo.com.

One of the most critical parts of a democracy is the right to dissent. But if democratic norms weaken, that right can become harder to exercise. And when authoritarianism creeps into a government, dissent can get dangerous.Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison for resisting Apartheid before becoming South Africa's first Black president. Before becoming president of Czechoslovakia, Vaclav Havel was jailed for his dissident writing under Communist rule.But there are also dissidents everywhere around us here at home. Protesters demonstrated against ICE in cities across the U.S. last week. And an estimated 8 million people turned up worldwide for “No Kings” protests in March.So, what does it actually take to stand up to a government that's stopped playing by the rules? And when does it make a difference? We speak with the authors of the new book “On Courage: How To Be A Dissident in an Age of Fear.”Find more of our programs online.

Foredrag ved Tore Linné EriksenHelt fra europeerne først koloniserte Sør-Afrika, fratok de svarte sør-afrikanere deres jord, rettigheter og verdighet, en prosess som ble intensivert fra raseskillepolitikken apartheid ble formelt innført i 1948.Kampen for like rettigheter, jordreform og mot rasisme ble hovedsakelig ført av bevegelsen African National Congress (ANC), og var både politisk og militær. I dag har bevegelsen og frontfigurene heltestatus, men det er ikke mange tiår siden de var langt mer omstridte, og Nelson Mandela sto på USAs terrorliste.Ungdomsopprøret som startet i Soweto i 1976 ble både et symbol og et startskudd på den internasjonale motstanden mot apartheid, der også Norge deltok aktivt, særlig fra Fellesrådet for det sørlige Afrika, Den Norske Kirke og deler av fagbevegelsen. Mot slutten av apartheidsystemet gikk Gro Harlem Brundtlands regjering med i den globale boikott-kampanjen. Men har vi nordmenn lett for å se vel rosenrødt på vårt eget bidrag?Tore Linné Eriksen er professor emeritus ved OsloMet, og har arbeidet med Afrikas historie gjennom et langt liv. Han var sentral i solidaritetsarbeidet, og har blant annet gitt ut bøker om Sør-Afrikas historie og en biografi om Nelson Mandela. Nå vil han utvide og nyansere det vi lærte på skolen om kampen mot apartheid.I denne foredragsserien ser Litteraturhuset nærmere på noen av de viktigste protestbevegelsene i det forrige århundret, og hvilken betydning disse kampene har for vår tid. Arrangementet er støttet av NORAD. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this day, 19 July 1984, the Dunnes Stores anti-apartheid strike began in Dublin, Ireland. Shop worker Mary Manning refused to check out a customer's South African fruit, as members of her union, Idatu, had voted to not handle South African goods. Manning was then suspended, and she and 11 of her colleagues went on strike in protest. The stoppage went on for three years, ending when the Irish government introduced a ban on South African products.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9108/dunnes-stores-strikeOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

Former Police Minister Bheki Cele has told the TRC Cases Inquiry that he still wants the truth about the murders and disappearances of anti-apartheid activists. Cele says the urge to know who killed Victoria Mxenge and many others has never faded, adding that uncovering the truth would bring comfort to affected families. He also told the commission he was arrested almost every week after Mxenge's killing and was eventually instructed by his underground commander, which was Mr Jacob Zuma at the time, to leave South Africa because he had become a target for elimination.

Some fans and human rights activists believe that Inter are whitewashing both Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people and their apartheid state by buying an Israel international.  Nima Tavallaey conducted three important interviews with Dr. Thair Abu Ras of the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute, Andrew Feinstein who is a former member of the South African parliament for ANC under the leadership of Nelson Mandela, and Palestinian football journalist Bassil Mikdadi from Football Palestine to discuss all aspects of this issue.

Miles de migrantes en Sudáfrica se enfrentan al pánico de ser repatriados tras cumplirse el plazo límite del 30 de junio fijado por movimientos civiles radicales -y no por el Gobierno- para que abandonaran el país. La presión social ha derivado en saqueos, agresiones y patrullajes informales, obligando a más de 25.000 personas a regresar a sus naciones de origen y dejando a otras 20.000 en albergues a la espera de una evacuación. Ante este escenario, cabe preguntarse: ¿Es esta persecución un legado directo del Apartheid o se trata de una estrategia política para desviar la atención de la crisis social y el desempleo actual? Lo analizamos en El Debate de France 24 con expertas desde Johannesburgo.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Yuli Novak, executive director of the Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem. Their conversation covers a wide range of topics as Yuli addresses why it matters to understand the Israeli system from the inside. They discuss how Israelis were mobilized so quickly into supporting and committing genocide; the meaning and impact of the Zionist movement producing the Israeli apartheid state; and the expectation that Israeli violence and repression will continue to increase. Yuli states her belief that positive change is not coming soon, but the Israeli Jewish population has both the responsibility and ability to act to dismantle the paradigms of Jewish supremacy and militarism and work for both justice and equality. Yuli Novak is the Executive Director of B'Tselem. From 2012-2017, she was Executive Director of Breaking the Silence. In 2022, she published (in Hebrew) the memoir Who Do You Think You Are?, which will be published in English in 2026. Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere. He earned a BA at the University of Pennsylvania and an MPP at Harvard University. You can follow Ahmed on Substack at: https://ahmedmoor.substack.com and on X at @AhmedMoor.

  Welcome back to the  Dr. Mary Travelbest Guide podcast. I returned from another 90-day journey around the world, and I'm excited to connect with fellow solo travelers, share experiences, and help build world peace, one person at a time. The FAQ is: Do you feel isolated as an American traveling now?  I've been solo traveling quite a bit over the past year, and I've noticed a trend. There have been multiple times when people in a group have discussed where they're from and asked questions about each other's countries. And then it gets to me, and I say the US, and it goes silent until the conversation moves on to someone else. It happens in hostels and bars. In fact, I've had multiple times where I say I'm American and the person will just instantly walk away. I know my country has done awful things that have earned this reputation. It's just disappointing that it creates a slightly isolating feeling at first. Luckily, I've had experiences where people have been really friendly, and I hope to have more of those. Has anyone else had similar experiences? I want to make it clear to those from the United States that they should not let this discourage them. The majority of my interactions don't go this way. I'm posting because I've had repeated, small incidents in several countries and want to see if others have noticed a pattern. Even when they happen, they've never felt more than just passive-aggressive.   60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today, the Confidence Challenge in Johannesburg, is safety.    If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into how to feel safe when you travel alone. I also discuss my safari in Kenya, part of East Africa. You may want to book a safari in South Africa and read the book as you move through the 5 steps to solo travel, from easy to more challenging, with tips on foreign-language communication. You can find the series at the link in the description.    See Book A for addressing this concern.  Find it on the website​​ at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's destination is Johannesburg, South Africa. Today, we're talking about Johannesburg, or "Joburg," a place that may not feel easy at first—but that's exactly why it matters. We will cover the Apartheid Museum, Soweto, Mandela, soccer, Maboneng, Rosebank, and Sandton. We'll also tell you about a good tour guide and how to get informed. Let's be clear: this is not a relaxed, wander-anywhere kind of destination. But if you approach it thoughtfully, it becomes one of the most eye-opening cultural experiences you can have. So let's walk through what's worth your time and what requires your attention. Johannesburg is not built for tourists—it's built from history. Gold mining in the 1800s created the city. Apartheid shaped it. And today, you feel both, everywhere. You'll notice: Stark contrasts between wealth and poverty Gated neighborhoods, security systems, and guarded homes Areas where the infrastructure feels inconsistent And if you're willing to see it clearly, this city teaches you something few others can. The Apartheid Museum If you are on a solo or group tour, start here. Not optional. The Apartheid Museum is one of the most powerful museums in the world. You don't just read history—you walk through it. Give yourself at least 2–3 hours. And be ready—it's emotionally heavy. Soweto + Mandela's Legacy   Next, visit Soweto—short for "South Western Township." Soweto is where history becomes personal. Before your trip, if you can, read Mandela's book, The Long Walk to Freedom. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2304771/   Walk down Vilakazi Street—home to both Nobel Peace Prize winners from the area. Nelson Mandela Desmond Tutu Visit the Nelson Mandela House, now a museum. You'll see: Local life Street vendors Music, dancing, and community But go with a guide. Not optional. There were small fires in the neighborhoods along the roadside, and some traffic lights were not working. Be aware, but be ready to learn.   Want to see a Soccer game while here? There are two teams you can watch at home games.   Johannesburg-based Soweto giants Orlando Pirates play home games at  Orlando Stadium, which the City of Johannesburg owns. While Carling Black Label has recently partnered with Kaizer Chiefs as a sponsor, the teams' major sponsors historically have included Vodacom and others.   https://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/43608195/what-soweto-derby-why-kaizer-chiefs-orlando-pirates-south-africa-most-popular-teams   Head to Maboneng, Johannesburg's creative district. Think: Street art Local designers Live music Markets like The Playground It's one of the few places where you can walk more freely—but still stay aware. Grab a meal, enjoy the vibe, but don't linger alone after dark.   Now, let's visit Rosebank + Sandton (Modern Johannesburg)   If you're wondering where things feel familiar—this is it. In Rosebank: Visit the arts and crafts market Browse local goods safely In Sandton: Upscale shopping Restaurants Hotels like Marriott Global brands like Apple and Nike It's polished—but don't confuse that with the whole city. A few dining places to consider: Pata Pata in Maboneng Salvation Café https://www.salvationcafe.co.za/ Looking for a travel guide in Johannesburg? Here's a suggestion. Beck N Coll. Benoni is Colleen Becker's hometown, just outside of Johannesburg. Her grown Son is Calvin. She's married to Glenn. "Beck n Coll "is their travel company name.  Through other means,nsuch aske Servas and Host a Sister, they have had 70-plus guests so far. Help them by booking your trip with them. Here is the website for more info. This episode is not a sponsored post. They can book you on a safari tour as they are experts here.   https://www.beckncoll.co.za/ https://www.instagram.com/hostasister/ Here is more on Host A Sister. It's  a global Facebook community connecting women worldwide to share homes for free, fostering friendship, cultural exchange, and safe, budget-friendly travel. Members (women and non-binary individuals) offer accommodation, local meetups, and travel advice without monetary exchange, ensuring it remains a non-dating platform, and I used it here. I met Colleen through Servas, and she told me about Host a Sister, which I used later in my 90-day trip. Let's summarize and add value with my reality check: Not every place will feel intuitive or walkable—plan your stops. You'll hear "be careful," and you should question what that actually means. Here's the reality: Do not travel alone at night Use Uber or arrange drivers Stay in known areas (Sandton, Rosebank) Avoid spontaneous wandering Keep your phone out of sight in public But also, don't assume constant danger. Many travelers report no issues when they stay aware and structured, like me. This guidance is not fear-based travel. It's informed travel. Johannesburg is not about comfort. It's about understanding. You will see: Inequality Resilience Creativity   My missteps: Wrong Airport in Johannesburg   Travel Mistake to Avoid    I should have booked Johannesburg's other airport from Cape Town. I didn't realize there were two airports, and I picked the cheaper one. I ended up on the wrong side of town and had to Uber from the airport to the train station. Then I got on the train and got to my destination.   So, in the end, I did not save any money.   Check the airport before you book Safari Air!   Thanks for listening, and I'll see you on the next journey.

There is no shortage of books on music and politics, but Anna Harwell Celenza explores an interesting premise in her book On the Record: Music that Changed America (Norton, 2026). Each of the twelve chapters discusses a different instance when music, as Celenza writes, “sparked debates in the halls of Congress.” Arranged basically chronologically, Celenza tackles some of the most powerful and contentious issues in twentieth and twenty-first century American politics. From censorship to copyright law; from the Civil Rights Movement, to foreign policy during Apartheid, Celenza traces the extraordinary moments when music moved Congress, challenged power, and united people around shared ideals. The stories Celenza tells are just as much about music including the intertwined histories of “The Star Spangled Banner” and “Lift Every Voice and Sing” or the making of Paul Simon's album Graceland, as they are about US legislation or American politics. She offers readers a history of America heard through the songs and compositions that changed its course. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this interview with Chris Steyn, Political Commentator Solly Moeng gives his take on the latest developments in the impeachment drama surrounding President Cyril Ramaphosa, noting: “... he is buying time for himself, definitely for other people around him whose interests would not be aided by him leaving now and a certain Paul Mashatile is immediately coming in…” Moeng calls for the recall of Agriculture Minister John Steenhuisen and the removal of his Chief of Staff Jana le Roux who allegedly swore at an agri official and for sharing bemusement at farmers reaching out to the department. “...if he can't remove her, maybe they should remove him…look it's up to the DA now to prove itself, to say to Ramaphosa, look, we are withdrawing this man…” Speaking on the 50th anniversary of the June 16 1976 youth march in Soweto, Moeng slams the government for failing the youth. Describing his return last year to Diepkloof - where he grew up, he charges: “It's worse than during Apartheid.The primary school that I used to go to has got a squatter camp inside its yard…It actually made me go on to cry…..” Lastly, he comments on the Western Cape's outgoing Police Commissioner coming out in support of extending policing powers to the province.

Am 16. Juni 1976 protestieren in südafrikanischen Soweto Tausende Schüler gegen die Apartheid-Regierung und Afrikaans als Unterrichtssprache. Die Polizei reagiert brutal. Der Aufstand wird zum Wendepunkt. Die Folgen prägen Südafrika bis heute. Ueberbach, Stephan www.deutschlandfunk.de, Hintergrund

John Maytham speaks to Professor Premesh Lalu, who helped establish the Trojan Horse Memorial in Athlone, about the significance of the site as a place of remembrance. They reflect on the events of 15 October 1985, when apartheid security police opened fire on protesting youths, killing three young people, and discuss how the memorial preserves this history for future generations while serving as an important heritage destination in Cape Town. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.

When the Taliban regained control of Afghanistan in 2021, they didn't just alter the country's political landscape—they systematically dismantled the legal and social reality for all women and girls. Through a continuous rollout of oppressive edicts, women and girls have been banned from universities, barred from working for NGOs, and forbidden from even speaking aloud in public spaces. International legal experts and activists are increasingly calling this reality gender apartheid. In this episode, we sit down with Rina Amiri, top diplomat and former U.S. Special Envoy for Afghan Women, Girls, and Human Rights. Having spent decades navigating the complex world of conflict resolution and international peacebuilding at the UN and the State Department, Amiri brings an unparalleled level of insight to one of the most critical human rights crises of our time.

On this day, 6 June 1988, a general strike was declared in South Africa by Black unions and anti-apartheid groups. Up to three million took part in the stoppage, in protest at the two-year-old state of emergency and further proposed restrictions on the right to strike. The strikers held out against police, who opened fire on crowds in townships, until 8 June.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/10638/anti-apartheid-general-strikeOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

In this episode, we invite authors from the Centre for Sustainability Transitions, Stellenbosch university and collaborators from McGill university to discuss their article “Radical Incrementalism in Action Through Institutional Work: Case Studies of Embedded Research in South Africa”. As part of our special Eco-Justice and Climate Action series, the authors explore the complexities of navigating changemaking from within institutions. Listen in to discover secrets to radical change through slow and steady processes!In this episode, our co-hosts Joe and Blane introduce the team and the article at the center of today's discussion. They begin by grounding listeners in the broader context of South Africa for those who may be less familiar with its history and contemporary dynamics [2:20], before moving into the deeper motivations and relationships behind their collaboration and the development of the concept of radical incrementalism [4:15]. What does this term mean, and how is it done? Our own curiosity increased as we continued our conversation.– What gave rise to this feeling that they needed another way to think about how to pursue change? Some critical scholars might challenge the idea that incrementalism can actually be radical, perhaps the idea represents an abandonment of the drastic and immediate “change we need” concept? So, we ask the authors to respond to this critique [5:15]. The episode then explores how radical incrementalism is actually done, and the messiness and complexity behind this way of working, including questions of embeddedness, role conflicts, ethical dilemmas, and the importance of political literacy [26:27]. Finally, the conversation closes with reflections on how these ideas are shaping daily practice, and what kinds of changes the guests have observed as a result [37:40].

Biographies: Mark Swilling is a Distinguished Professor and a former Co-Director of the Centre for Sustainability Transitions at Stellenbosch University, South Africa. He is an international expert in sustainable development, with over thirty years of experience in ‘societal transitions' (with special reference to urban systems), initially focusing on democratisation and governance during the Apartheid era in South Africa. The primary research focus of his career can be defined as ‘societal transitions,' more recently within the broader discipline of sustainability science and governance at the global level. His published research was coupled to major institution-building collaborations. This achievement was recognised in 2010 when he was awarded the Aspen Faculty Pioneer Award for success in introducing sustainability into leadership education. Dr. Elaine Huang is currently a Research Associate at the Faculty of Education, McGill University. Her research examines how the social sciences can contribute to just and sustainable futures by advancing ethical collaboration, institutional transformation, and collective learning. She is particularly interested in how researchers engage with the politics, evolving normativity, and uncertainties inherent in real-world change processes to serve the public good.

In this episode Esther Armah and Myrna discuss her Emotional Justice framework.  In this conversation, they get into the courage that racial healing actually requires, and who it asks the most of. Esther is a journalist, playwright, and global emotional justice advocate joining us from Accra, Ghana.  Drawing on her encounters with Winnie Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and Nchiki Biko — the widow of Steve Biko who famously refused to forgive the officers who murdered her husband at the TRC — Esther unpacks why reconciliation is not liberation language, why Nelson Mandela's message of forgiveness placed an impossible emotional burden on Black people, and what the emotional work of white people actually looks like. Myrna brings her own reckoning: years of fawning for white audiences, softening the language of colonial trauma, and what it finally cost her to name it. This is Part 1. Esther will be back. Esther Armah is a Ghanaian-British journalist, playwright, radio host, and creator of the Emotional Justice framework. She is the author of Emotional Justice: A Roadmap for Racial Healing.

There is no amount of education that will replace the emotional work we all have to do." — Esther Armah   "Reconciliation is not liberation language. It is conciliatory language designed to sustain how whiteness comforts and soothes itself." — Esther Armah   "In Canada, your superpower is to mask your violence in polite neutrality and somehow describe it as no longer violence.

The brothers welcome Lebanese scholar and original "Angry Arab" Asad AbuKhalil, author, columnist, professor, and public intellectual.  The discuss the increasing depravity of a long history of Israeli wars on Lebanon going back to 1948; why so many in Lebanon continue to put their faith in the pipe-dream of peace with a state that is actively committing genocide, the neglect of the South during the decades of alleged Lebanese prosperity in the run up to the civil war, the origins of the Dahiye, why the current Lebanese government has turned its back on resistance, and the extent to which Lebanese leaders and politicians have collaborated with Israel since 1948, the difference between the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and today, the price of, and discontent with resistance, and the anti-Shii bigotry of Lebanese political culture.

Once there was a girl who sang from the heart, and fought for freedom through her music. Her name was Miriam Makeba. She was raised in South Africa in the 1930s, where laws oppressed Black people like her. She rose up in song to fight the racist system of Apartheid. She used her voice to travel the world and bring awareness about the injustices her people faced at home. Because of this, she was banned from returning to South Africa for many years. After moving to the United States her career was upended when she married a controversial leader of the civil rights leader. But she still used her fame as a platform for change, and came to be known as “Mama Africa”.
