Hay muchos circuitos legendarios que han formado parte de la Fórmula 1. Algunos son legendarios por sus curvas, otros por su historia y otros porque fueron espectaculares y tienen historia. El circuito de Kyalami es uno de ellos. Un circuito nostálgico que la afición de la Fórmula 1 extraña. ¿Será posible que esté próximo su regreso?
Ralph welcomes sociologist and historian Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi to discuss the United States' war of aggression on Iran.Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi is an Iranian-born American historian and sociologist. He is a Research Fellow at the Center for Place, Culture, and Politics at the CUNY Graduate Center. He was the Chair of the Department of Near Eastern Studies and Director of the Sharmin and Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies at Princeton University. He is the author of four books on different aspects and historical context of the Iranian revolution of 1979 and its aftermath.The only countries that I see that are in constant violation of international law is the United States and Israel. And frankly, I am speechless, although I'm speaking, but I am speechless—in what universe can this war be justified as self-defense? You listened to Secretary Rubio's speech in Munich where he laments 400 years of colonial rule being lost to this international law and laws of fighting wars because they want to go back to the way things were in the 18th and 19th century. This is a naked expansionist, extortionist administration here, and that's the only reason they have launched this war, and there is absolutely no justification for it.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziFor years and years, the Israelis have been assassinating Iranian scientists. They were sabotaging Iranian industries. And actually, the Iranian government showed tremendous restraint in responding to these Israeli provocations because they didn't want to create the situation in which we find ourselves today. But then at the end of the day, calling Iran the aggressor here I think is a total ignorance of history and the context in which this war has started.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziAll these things are not to suggest that the Iranian government in any form or shape is a democratic and just state. But the question here is about the sovereignty of the Iranian state. And the only inheritance of the revolution that has been kept throughout these forty-odd years was the question of sovereignty. Because that was one of the demands of the revolution. The question of social justice was thrown out of the window after the revolution. The question of civil liberties was thrown out of the window after the revolution. The only thing that is left is Iranian sovereignty. And according to every single intelligence study, what Iranians do outside their borders is a defensive posture. Iran does not have an expansionist agenda.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziNews 3/6/26* Last week, Bill and Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee on their respective relationships with financier and sexual predator, Jeffrey Epstein. Hillary Clinton, in a deposition described as contentious, maintained that she had virtually zero connections with Epstein, stating at one point “I am so tired of answering that question,” per PBS. Former President Bill Clinton meanwhile, tried to downplay his relationship with Epstein, describing it as “cordial,” and claiming that he had come to an arrangement with Epstein where the financier provided his private jet for humanitarian trips in exchange for Clinton discussing politics and economics with him. The committee pressed Clinton on this point, noting that Epstein visited the White House numerous times during Clinton's presidency and that there are photos of the two men shaking hands. Clinton told lawmakers he “did not recall those interactions.” These answers leave much to be desired.* Meanwhile, another Epstein associate occupies the Oval Office today – Donald Trump – and on February 26th the Wall Street Journal reported that the Department of Justice, under the stewardship of Attorney General Pam Bondi, has been withholding interviews with a woman who accused President Donald Trump of sexual assault back in the 1980s. As the Journal writes, the suppression of this interview “raises new questions about the Justice Department's handling of the Epstein files release and the pages that have been kept private.” The Journal adds that “Trump officials initially opposed the release of the files and then fumbled their response, including inconsistent redactions that exposed dozens of Epstein victims and initially kept some prominent men's names hidden.” However, on March 5th, POLITICO reported that the FBI has now published a trio of FBI interviews with the woman who accused the president of sexually assaulting her in collusion with Jeffrey Epstein. Trump and his allies categorically deny any wrongdoing on the part of the president, with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt calling the allegations “completely baseless…backed by zero credible evidence, from a sadly disturbed woman who has an extensive criminal history.” This story also highlights what is sure to be the next flashpoint in this saga: on Wednesday, a House committee voted to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi to testify about her handling of the Epstein files.* Turning to media news, last week we covered how Paramount-Skydance, led by the Ellison family and backed by the Trump administration, outmaneuvered Netflix to close a deal acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery – including CNN. Throughout this process, many have raised the alarm that if the Ellisons were to get their hands on CNN, they would turn it over to their ideological attack dog, Bari Weiss, as they did with CBS News. Variety is now echoing those concerns, reporting that “It's expected that Weiss will have a big role in steering CNN.” Just what exactly this role will be remains to be seen, but given her tenure as editor-in-chief of CBS News, there is much cause for concern.* In related news, Variety reports Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav has filed to sell 4,004,149 shares – over $114 million worth of stock – in the company following the announcement of the sale to Paramount, including Paramount's eye-popping offer of $31 per share. Zaslav retains additional stock and options which he could cash out as the deal moves forward. Curiously, even as the Trump administration backed the Paramount buyout over the Netflix deal, the president himself continues to bank on the fiscal stability of the streaming giant, with the Hollywood Reporter documenting that Trump bought between $600,000 and $1.25 million worth of Netflix debt in January, adding to the $500,000 to $1 million in Netflix bonds that he purchased in December. This story notes that while the Netflix-Warner deal fell through, Netflix walked away with a $2.8 billion “break-up fee,” and an investment grade credit rating, unlike both WBD and Paramount.* Looking at domestic politics, this week primaries were held in Texas and North Carolina which yielded the nomination of James Talarico in Texas, beating out Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett for the Democratic nod, and the razor thin victory of incumbent Valerie Foushee over her progressive challenger Nida Allam in the Durham-Chapel Hill region. But many more primary battles lay ahead, perhaps the most interesting of which is unfolding in Maine, where the Bernie Sanders-backed veteran-turned-oysterman Graham Platner is duking it out with Chuck Schumer's preferred candidate, outgoing Governor Janet Mills. Platner, despite damaging stories, has continued to draw massive crowds and enjoys a huge polling advantage. Last week, Platner's allies, led by United Autoworkers President Shawn Fain, staged a sort of intervention with Schumer, with Fain lambasting the “shortcomings” in Democratic leaders' approach to the 2026 midterms, “particularly their failure to adequately listen to working-class voters.” Michael Monahan, a high-level official in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, also sent a letter to the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee strongly urging the DSCC to “refrain from intervening further in [the Maine] primary.” A mid-February independent poll found Platner with a 38-point lead over Mills among likely Democratic primary voters, yet the party continues to back Mills to the hilt. This from NBC.* Our remaining stories this week concern foreign affairs. First, in South Africa, it seems the forces of the Left are looking to pool their support by entering into a political alliance. According to TimesLIVE, a prominent South African online newspaper, the country's largest standalone Left party, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) has convened with the South African Communist Party (SACP) to discuss such an electoral pact. The SACP has long participated in a tripartite alliance with the African National Congress party (ANC), which has ruled South Africa since the end of Apartheid, but recently announced they would contest elections independently. The EFF and SACP emphasized that their priorities align on the “deep crises confronting South Africa: de-industrialisation, austerity-driven fiscal consolidation, collapsing energy security, mass unemployment, and extreme poverty.”* In another major political realignment, the Green Party of England and Wales is surging as the Labour Party, under the centrist leadership of Prime Minister Keir Starmer, continues to lose ground to the Nigel Farage-led far right party, Reform UK. The rise of the Green Party has been bubbling for some time, as progressive voters feel betrayed by Labour and the momentum behind Jeremy Corbyn's “Your Party” has fizzled, but the first major test occurred recently in the Labour stronghold riding of Groton and Denton in Greater Manchester. According to the BBC, this marks the first ever win for the Greens in a by-election, with 34-year-old plumber Hannah Spencer becoming the party's first ever MP in northern England. Reform ran second, with Labour dropping by 25% into third place. Moreover, Zeteo reports the Greens have leapfrogged ahead of Labour in national polling, second only to Reform and has become the single most popular party among voters under 50. For the past five months, the Greens have been led by self-described “eco-populist” Zack Polanski, and have espoused policies including giving councils the power to control rents, extending free school meals to all children, and imposing a new ‘wealth tax' on assets above £10m.* In Congress, Representative Ro Khanna has introduced the West Bank Human Rights Resolution to Condemn Israeli Settlement Expansion. This resolution is described as utilizing far more specific language to condemn “Israeli settler violence and referencing potential sanctions tools while also calling for a review of US policies that may indirectly subsidise settlement activity,” per the Middle East Eye. In part, this resolution is a response to the Israeli government's February 8th approval of “sweeping changes to land registration and civil control in Areas A and B of the West Bank, which Palestinians say breach the Oslo Accords and advance de facto annexation.” This resolution was drafted in conjunction with Cameron Kasky, the survivor of the 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting who has become a leading activist on rights for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. In a statement upon the introduction of this resolution, Kasky wrote “this is a necessary measure for Democrats and Republicans to unite behind the upholding of international law. Democrats and Republicans can agree that U.S. taxpayer money being used to subsidize the violation of international law is an outrage.”* Our final two stories concern the U.S. attacks on Iran. First, a bizarre sequence of conflicting claims between the U.S. and Spain have left many observers puzzled. First, on March 3rd, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez addressed the Iberian nation, saying “Very often great wars start with a chain of events spiralling out of control due to miscalculations, technical failures, and unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, we must learn from history and cannot play Russian roulette with the fate of millions.” Sánchez warned of “repeating the mistakes of the past,” and drew a comparison with the invasion of Iraq, concluding his government's position is “No to war,” per CNBC. More pointedly, the Spanish government prevented two jointly operated bases in its territory from being used in the strikes on Iran. Trump responded on the 4th by vowing to cut off all trade with Madrid, saying “Spain has been terrible…We don't want anything to do with Spain.” Then, on March 5th, Karoline Leavitt told the press that “With respect to Spain, I think they heard the president's message yesterday loud and clear, and it's my understanding, over the past several hours, they've agreed to cooperate with the U.S. military.” Yet, the Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares immediately responded that “The Spanish government's position on the war in the Middle East ... and the use of our bases has not changed at all.” This also from CNBC. Trump's threat to cut off trade with Spain would be difficult to follow through on, given that the 27 nations in the European Union negotiate trade agreements collectively,* Finally, far from assuaging concerns about the attacks on Iran leading to blowback, the Hill reports that, when asked during a phone call with Time magazine about whether Americans should be worried about a potential strike on the homeland, Trump replied, “I guess.” Trump went on to say “We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah…we expect some things…some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.” Stunningly, despite Trump openly declaring that we are at war with Iran sans congressional authorization and even casually admitting Americans could be killed on home soil, the feckless Congress has voted down War Powers resolutions in the House and Senate. In the upper house, the bill introduced by Democratic Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, failed 47-53, with Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky crossing party lines to support it while Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania crossed party lines to vote nay, per the AP. A similar measure in the House, introduced by Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie – the duo behind the Epstein Files Transparency Act and other war powers resolutions including on Venezuela – failed by a vote of 212-219. In addition to Massie, Republican Rep. Warren Davison of Ohio voted in favor of the resolution, while four House Democrats voted nay, per Axios. Again the question is presented to us, if this won't shock Congress to action, what will?This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

On February 16, a group of Palestinian footballers and Palestinian clubs joined with others to file a complaint with the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. They are accusing the Presidents of FIFA, and Union of European Football Associations, UEFA, of aiding in war crimes and crimes against humanity in the occupied Palestinian territory. We speak about the reasons for this complaint with Jill Thomson of Scottish Sport for Palestine.

On today's show, guest host Bert Zipperer is in conversation with Negin Owliaei, editor-in-chief of Truthout, about the war that the US and Israel launched on Iran last weekend. On Saturday, Owliaei woke up to dozens of text messages from her family in Tehran announcing the bombardment of their city. Since then, the US and Israel have killed more than 1,000 people across Iran and the Middle East, including 150 school children. Owliaei says that she is frustrated by the public discourse about Iran and the way that the language of “preemptive strikes” and “imminent threats,” sanitizes war. She reminds listeners that there were signs that the US was gearing up for an attack on Iran and that it costs the nation $1 billion per day to wage this unjust and illegal war. She insists that “just because it's started, doesn't mean it needs to go on” and “every minute we can shorten this war is a success.” In her latest article for Truthout, she discusses the need for resistance and support for grassroots organizing like Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement, Taxpayers Against Genocide, and No Tech for Apartheid. They also discuss Nowruz (the Spring holiday in Iran), the history of the 1953 CIA-backed coup, the deportation of Iranians following the 12-day US-Israel war on Iran last summer, and the Women, Life, Freedom movement. She wants people to understand that everything that's going on domestically has a foreign policy effect. Owliaei joined A Public Affair last summer to talk about the US and Israel's 12-day war on Iran.

Shadow Politics with US Senator Michael D Brown and Maria Sanchez
Shadow Politics with Senator Michael D. Brown and Co-host Liberty Jones Guest, Charles Moreland 1st US Representative for DC - The Legacy of Activism In this episode of Shadow Politics, a profound dialogue between Senator Emeritus Michael D. Brown and Representative Charles Moreland, the first elected U.S. Representative for the District of Columbia. They reflect on the mentorship of Jesse Jackson, the historical parallels between DC's struggle and global civil rights movements, and the urgent need for a grassroots mobilization to achieve full statehood. The Catalyst of the 1990s: Jesse Jackson's Influence The election of Charles Moreland and Jesse Jackson in 1990 marked a turning point for the District of Columbia. Jackson, a veteran of the Civil Rights Movement, brought national gravitas to the "Shadow" delegation, teaching local leaders the importance of visibility and national lobbying. Despite initial local skepticism regarding his arrival, Jackson acted as a master mentor, emphasizing that the fight for DC was a logical extension of the march from Selma to Montgomery. Symbolic Protests and Civil Disobedience The movement for statehood was characterized by direct action, including blocking Pennsylvania Avenue and dumping tea on the steps of the IRS to protest "taxation without representation". These acts were intended to mirror the founding principles of the United States, highlighting the irony that the "cradle of democracy" denies basic voting rights to its own residents. The "Home Rule" Trap vs. True Statehood A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the inadequacy of "Home Rule," which Moreland describes as a "dictatorship of the powerful over the powerless". Unlike a state, DC's local laws and budget are subject to Congressional veto, and its residents lack voting members in the Senate and House. The speakers argue that many residents have developed a "slave mentality," accepting the illusion of democracy provided by a local mayor while the federal government retains ultimate control over their finances and judicial appointments. Political Analysis and the Path Forward The dialogue touches on the 2024 election, with Moreland critiquing the Democratic Party for failing to prioritize statehood when they held the majority. He attributes political shifts to deep-seated racism and gender bias, noting that voter suppression is often ignored in mainstream post-election analysis. Ultimately, the speakers conclude that statehood will not be granted through polite lobbying alone; it requires a mass movement where citizens demand their rights, echoing Frederick Douglass's maxim that "power concedes nothing without a demand". The conversation serves as both a historical record and a call to action. While the legacy of leaders like Jesse Jackson and Florence Pendleton provided a foundation of hope, Moreland and Brown emphasize that the "lightning bug" of Home Rule is no substitute for the "lightning bolt" of statehood. The path to freedom requires DC residents to shed the "slave mentality" and demand the same rights enjoyed by every other citizen in a modern democracy.
Inspired Radio with Helen Taylor Guest, Judge Adriaan Fondsie Judge Adriaan Fondse exposes corruption, theft, fraud, and long-standing evil conduct carried out by a network he refers to as the Eminent Persons Group. With clarity and conviction shares why it is time for lawful revelation, accountability, and restoring what was taken from the people. Below is a link to a series of Documents Adriaan Fondsie mentions throughout the podcast: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZEXpeN8eSltyQ8RxLdP-hGilloL-WkwG?usp=share_link If you want to contact him please do so via Martin Bernstein via email martins1on1gym@gmail.com In this episode of Inspired Radio, host Helen Taylor interviews Judge Adriaan "Fanie" Rudolf von Zee, a South African investigator and former Special Forces member. The dialogue explores von Zee's findings regarding systemic financial corruption, the manipulation of historical narratives through "divide and conquer" tactics, and the existence of massive humanitarian trusts intended to provide global abundance. The Illusion of Banking and Currency Creation Adriaan von Zee describes the global banking system as a "well-disguised scam" and "theft," asserting that banks do not move currency of value when issuing loans but instead create it "out of thin air" through ledger entries. He argues that this system, designed to choke the flow of money and fund both sides of manufactured wars, allows a "generational criminal gang" to accumulate the world's wealth. According to von Zee, this mechanism has been forced upon humanity since the late 1700s to maintain systemic control. Historical Manipulation and the Business of Apartheid The discussion reveals a controversial reinterpretation of South African history, where von Zee claims Apartheid was a "business construct" rather than a purely ideological conflict. He details how the British Crown, through MI6, allegedly established both the Broederbond and the ANC to create an artificial racial war, facilitating a "divide and conquer" strategy. He suggests similar tactics are used globally, including in Australia, to keep populations distracted while resources and land are expropriated by the "Deep State" or "Eminent Persons Group." The Humanitarian Trusts and the BIS A central theme of the interview is the recovery of the Alpha Omega and Avila Trusts, which von Zee claims hold vast gold reserves meant for the benefit of all humanity. He asserts that these assets have been illegally managed and exploited by the Rothschilds and the Vatican. He identifies the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) as the "capstone" of this corruption, operating above national laws to hide accounting evidence. Von Zee expresses his intention to use legal and audit evidence to regain control of these assets for public benefit. A Path Toward Global Abundance Von Zee concludes by urging individuals to move away from "scarcity mindsets" and "guru-following." He defines "true law" as a promise of care and abundance, arguing that if humans educate themselves and stand in unity, the current "evil" systems will lose their power. He emphasizes that transparency is essential, as secrecy is the foundation of all systemic evil, and envisions a future where collective care replaces manufactured conflict. The interview serves as a call to action for global transparency and individual sovereignty. By challenging the foundations of modern banking, media, and law, von Zee and Taylor suggest that the path to a "new world" lies in uncovering suppressed truths and reclaiming the wealth intended for all humanity.

They reflect on the mentorship of Jesse Jackson, the historical parallels between DC's struggle and global civil rights movements, and the urgent need for a grassroots mobilization to achieve full statehood. The Catalyst of the 1990s: Jesse Jackson's Influence The election of Charles Moreland and Jesse Jackson in 1990 marked a turning point for the District of Columbia. Jackson, a veteran of the Civil Rights Movement, brought national gravitas to the "Shadow" delegation, teaching local leaders the importance of visibility and national lobbying. Despite initial local skepticism regarding his arrival, Jackson acted as a master mentor, emphasizing that the fight for DC was a logical extension of the march from Selma to Montgomery. Symbolic Protests and Civil Disobedience The movement for statehood was characterized by direct action, including blocking Pennsylvania Avenue and dumping tea on the steps of the IRS to protest "taxation without representation". These acts were intended to mirror the founding principles of the United States, highlighting the irony that the "cradle of democracy" denies basic voting rights to its own residents. The "Home Rule" Trap vs. True Statehood A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the inadequacy of "Home Rule," which Moreland describes as a "dictatorship of the powerful over the powerless". Unlike a state, DC's local laws and budget are subject to Congressional veto, and its residents lack voting members in the Senate and House. The speakers argue that many residents have developed a "slave mentality," accepting the illusion of democracy provided by a local mayor while the federal government retains ultimate control over their finances and judicial appointments. Political Analysis and the Path Forward The dialogue touches on the 2024 election, with Moreland critiquing the Democratic Party for failing to prioritize statehood when they held the majority. He attributes political shifts to deep-seated racism and gender bias, noting that voter suppression is often ignored in mainstream post-election analysis. Ultimately, the speakers conclude that statehood will not be granted through polite lobbying alone; it requires a mass movement where citizens demand their rights, echoing Frederick Douglass's maxim that "power concedes nothing without a demand". The conversation serves as both a historical record and a call to action. While the legacy of leaders like Jesse Jackson and Florence Pendleton provided a foundation of hope, Moreland and Brown emphasize that the "lightning bug" of Home Rule is no substitute for the "lightning bolt" of statehood. The path to freedom requires DC residents to shed the "slave mentality" and demand the same rights enjoyed by every other citizen in a modern democracy.
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 193 As we encounter both the material in the infamous Epstein Files and revelations from some of Epstein's associates, not to mention the advances in AI and robotics, we're confronted with what seemed like dystopian science fiction just a few years ago: transhumanism. Tech futurists, however, have been predicting it and working toward it for decades, including the curious figure of "Martine" Rothblatt, creator of SiriusXM Radio and board member at the Mayo Clinic. Rothblatt is trans and has written at least two very odd books about sex and gender, The Apartheid of Sex: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Gender (https://www.amazon.com/Apartheid-Sex-Manifesto-Freedom-Gender/dp/051759997X/) (1996) and an updated version called From Transgender to Transhuman: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Form (https://www.amazon.com/Transgender-Transhuman-Manifesto-Freedom-Form/dp/0615489427/) (2011). In this latter book, Rothblatt explains, perhaps ironically now, that the same arguments that justify "transgender" also justify transhuman: ultimately that who we really are does not depend on our physical body at all. In this creepy episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay presents some of this troubling book to you. You will not want to miss this. Latest from New Discourses Press!

Apartheid Empire or Zionist Deep State Plot? The Global Cover-Up Exposed! Today, we're diving deep – and I mean Mariana Trench deep – into one of the most explosive topics out there: Is Israel an apartheid state? We're talking all the conspiracy theories swirling around this, the real-world fallout that's shaking geopolitics, and that wild story about Tucker Carlson and his crew getting "held" at the Israeli airport just the other day.

In this episode of BETTER, host Mark Brand sits down with legendary farmer, organizer, and food justice leader Karen Washington. Together they unpack why the food system “is not broken, it’s doing exactly what it’s geared to do,” and what it really takes to transform it. Karen traces her journey from a Bronx backyard garden and the first life‑changing bite of a real tomato to decades of urban farming, community organizing, and calling out systemic racism in the food system. She explains why she rejects the term “food desert” in favor of “food apartheid,” and how that shift in language exposes the historical and political forces that determine who gets to eat well. Mark and Karen also explore: Life and organizing before the internet—door‑knocking, church basements, and deep listening. How communities are responding to the dismantling of DEI funding by building local ecosystems and mutual aid networks. The difference between charity and solidarity, and why nonprofits must drop the savior complex and build long‑term trust and relationships. The global fight for food sovereignty, seed freedom, and biodiversity. Karen’s work at Rise & Root Farm in New York’s Hudson Valley—a queer, Black and brown, women‑led farm rooted in social justice and healing. Throughout, Karen returns to a simple, radical idea: food is a human right, and real change comes when power and land return to us and when we rediscover our connection to one another.
The inquest into the Apartheid-era killings of the Cradock Four reopens next month. In this interview with Chris Steyn, retired judge Chris Nicholson, who wrote Permanent Removal: Who killed the Cradock Four, speaks about the sinister reasons why State Security Council members ordered the killings have escaped justice. “I think the senior leadership of the ANC, as with the senior leadership of the Nats, came together and had an unholy pact in terms of which they said, we'll let the rats and mice be prosecuted, but we'll steer clear. So part of that unholy pact - and there are letters to that effect - shows that they were to be left alone. The hierarchy, the senior members of the ANC and the senior members of the Nat government were not to be touched.” Nicholson now remains hopeful, albeit sceptical, that the findings of the reopened inquest and outcomes of the current Truth and Reconciliation (TRC) Case Inquiry would bring the necessary justice. “…the sad thing to me is that it'll be another commission that will make findings with recommendations. And then will the politicians carry out the recommendations? That always seems to be the problem.”
In this episode, Kelsi Sheren discusses the alarming reality of Canadian foreign aid funding the Taliban, highlighting the severe decline of women's rights in Afghanistan since the Taliban's return to power. She emphasizes the concept of gender apartheid, detailing the oppressive measures imposed on women and the complicity of Canadian taxpayers in this humanitarian crisis. Kelsi calls for awareness and accountability regarding the government's actions and the moral implications of funding a regime that violates fundamental human rights.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Call to Action00:32 Funding the Taliban: A Shocking Reality01:29 The Decline of Women's Rights in Afghanistan03:23 Understanding Gender Apartheid05:17 The Role of Canadian Taxpayer Dollars07:45 The Complicity of Canada in Oppression10:31 The Intersection of Control and Compliance12:54 Canada's Generosity vs. Moral Responsibility14:22 Conclusion and Call for Awareness - - - - - - - - - - - -One Time Donation! - Paypal - https://paypal.me/brassandunityBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenLet's connect!Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@thekelsisherenperspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsiBurnsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsie_sheren/Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenTikTok - https://x.com/KelsiBurnsSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS - - - - - - - - - - - -MasterPeace - 10% off with code KELSI - http://www.MasterPeace.Health/KelsiKetone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://brassandunity.com

Buenas, aquí nuestro podcast prometido. Frente al aire de discursos de división y de acciones de cruel injusticia que suceden en el mundo, exploramos la arquitectura del Apartheid en Sudáfrica: un sistema levantado sobre leyes, mitos bíblicos y un racismo que se pretendía 'científico' para invisibilizar a un pueblo. Pero también narraremos la respuesta desde la verdad y la humanidad: la dignidad organizada de figuras como Gandhi, Luthuli, Biko y Mandela. Veremos cómo la conciencia y la No violencia demostraron que ningún sistema de opresión, por sofisticado y estructurado que sea, puede apagar el espíritu de libertad. Porque del mismo sitio donde se origina la peor crueldad también puede levantarse la esperanza que ilumine al mundo. Notas del episodio: La estructura del Apartheid Una utopía nefasta: las aspiraciones puestas en el Apartheid La vida de Mahatma Gandhi en Sudáfrica John Langalibalele Dube: resistencia frente a la injusticia (en inglés) Albert Luthuli: la existencia y la lucha entregada a la No violencia El discurso de unidad de Nelson Mandela para superar el Apartheid Contactanos en: www.dianauribe.fm Sigue mis proyectos en otros lugares: YouTube ➔ youtube.com/@DianaUribefm Instagram ➔ instagram.com/dianauribe.fm Facebook ➔ facebook.com/dianauribe.fm Sitio web ➔ dianauribe.fm Twitter ➔ x.com/DianaUribefm LinkedIn ➔ www.linkedin.com/in/diana-uribe Gracias de nuevo a nuestra comunidad de patreon por apoyar la producción de este episodio.

In this episode of Better, host Mark Brand reflects on a powerful conversation with farmer, organizer, and food justice leader Karen Washington. Together they unpack why “food deserts” is the wrong language for the right problem, and why Karen insists we call it what it is: food apartheid. Mark and Madison explore what true leadership looks like, making complex issues accessible without watering them down, and how Karen’s decades of community organizing, urban farming, and movement-building have reshaped how we think about land, power, and who gets to eat well. They dive into: Why food is never “just food,” but history, policy, dignity, and power How communities can build ecosystems of trust that don’t rely only on government. The role of youth and elders in driving change together What it takes to move from feeling overwhelmed to believing in and building universal access to food. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn outrage into action, and how ordinary people can do extraordinary things for their communities, this episode is your invitation. karenthefarmer.com

UnHerd's Freddie Sayers talks to eminent economist and social scientist Professor Glenn Loury about a troubling new shift in American discourse: the rise of Right-wing identity politics. Traditionally a critic of the woke Left, Loury turns his sights on the world's wealthiest man, arguing that Elon Musk is making a "category mistake" by importing South African racial anxieties into the American context. By embracing white solidarity and racial essentialism, Loury argues, the Right is not defeating identity politics, but is instead adopting a politically destructive mirror image of the very ideology they claim to oppose.

In this episode, Dominic Bowen and Emily Winterbotham discuss how Afghanistan has evolved since the Taliban's return to power, challenging simplified narratives around security, terrorism, and international disengagement. Drawing on extensive field experience and long-term research, they examine why Afghanistan remains a critical test case for counterterrorism, regional geopolitics, and global risk management.Find out more about how the Taliban have reshaped the country's security landscape since 2021, including the shifting threat posed by ISKP, the limits of Afghanistan as a terrorist hub, and why some regional actors now view engagement with the Taliban as a pragmatic risk-containment strategy rather than an endorsement of their rule.The conversation also addresses the devastating human consequences of Taliban governance, with a particular focus on what the United Nations has described as gender apartheid. Emily explains how the systematic exclusion of women and girls from education, healthcare, and public life undermines long-term stability, peacebuilding, and state legitimacy -and why inclusive governance remains essential for durable security.Finally, they explore the role of the international community in Afghanistan's future, unpacking Western withdrawal, moral trade-offs around humanitarian aid, Russia's decision to recognise the Taliban, and the lessons policymakers must learn from past hypocrisy, warlord politics, and missed opportunities for inclusive peace.Emily Winterbotham is the Director of Terrorism and Conflict Studies at RUSI, where she leads work across London, Brussels, and Nairobi on terrorism, counterterrorism, peacebuilding, and fragile states, with a particular focus on Asia, especially Afghanistan and Pakistan. For over 15 years, she has combined desk research and field postings in international policy environments, including a decade working on conflict in Afghanistan. Between 2009 and 2015, she operated in Afghanistan and Pakistan and conducted community-based qualitative work for the Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit, studying conflict resolution, reconciliation, and pathways for demobilising and reintegrating former Taliban fighters. She also serves as a Deployable Civilian Expert for the UK Government's Stabilisation Unit. Emily is co-author of Countering Violent Extremism: Making Gender Matter (2020) and Conflict, Violent Extremism and Development: New Challenges, New Responses (2018), and her CVE research addresses the concept of gendered radicalisation and how counter-extremism programs can better integrate gender perspectives.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

Send us a textJanuary 2026. We navigate a landscape where advocacy, social media, and surveillance blur into a digital haze. To face the mounting crisis, we must trace the analog patterns that first forged the cage.In July 2021, I spoke over the phone with Jeffrey Blankfort—a Jewish-American journalist whose memory as a veteran Palestinian solidarity activist is a breach in the static. Blankfort deconstructs the Anti-Defamation League—the ADL—looking past the shield of civil rights to find a critical node in a transnational espionage network.We return to his landmark exposure of an illegal surveillance web; a clandestine bridge built between the Israel lobby and apartheid South Africa to monitor the American pulse. In this era of state and non-state convergence, this 2021 archive serves as a sobering lens. To understand the future, we must study the shadow it has already cast.Beyond the walls of the narrative... here is Jeffrey Blankfort.----------------------In beginning to critically deconstruct the key role of the Anti Defamation League in the Israel Lobby, producer Jeremy Rothe-Kushel speaks with Jewish American Journalist & Pro-Palestinian activist Jeffrey Blankfort, about his work to expose the ADL and its collaborators for colluding with apartheid Israel and South Africa on espionage against civil society in the United States.https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/06/12/adl-spies/https://www.foodnotbombs.net/adl_examiner.htmlhttps://www.wrmea.org/the-israel-lobby-is-it-good-for-the-us-is-it-good-for-israel-the-adl-covert-action-censure-and-courting-law-enforcement.htmlhttps://www.israellobby.org/ADL-CA/https://www.irmep.org/ADLespionage.asp——http://www.palestinechronicle.com/jeffrey-blankfort-breaking-the-silence-on-the-israel-lobby/“Are there Israeli lobby gatekeepers and damage control squads on the left?” https://www.natsummit.org/transcripts/jeffrey_blankfort.htm“Jeffrey Blankfort: Chomsky Misfires on U.S.-Israel Relations” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T33IdUl1S8—–https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Jeffrey_Blankforthttp://www.jeffblankfortphotography.com/contact.htmJeff Blankfort is a radio producer, photographer & journalist of Jewish-American background, who has been a pro-Palestinian human rights activist since 1970. He was formerly the editor of the Middle East Labor Bulletin and co-founder of the Labor Committee of the Middle East. He was also a founding member of the November 29 Coalition on Palestine and the Palestine Solidarity Committee. He won a settlement from the Jewish Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in February 2002 for its vast illegal spying against him, as well as hundreds of other progressive social, political, labor and environmental organizations and thousands of individuals (including anti-Apartheid groups/activists).Blankfort‘s articles have appeared in CounterPunch, Dissident Voice & Mondoweiss, among many others.

Good morning. There is deep sadness in Tehran and other Iranian cities today as more that 2,500 dead are mourned and it appears that the regime is in control of the streets again. It looks as though the brave attempt of the protestors to bring about change has ended in nothing but more cruel repression. It must be easy to lose heart, not just here but in so many places of the world, and to think that things will always go on in much the same way. So it is good to remind ourselves that things can change. I did not think Apartheid would end without civil war but in 1994 a democratic government was elected in South Africa. I did not think the cold war would end in my lifetime but in 1989 the Berlin wall came tumbling down, whilst in 1979 in Iran the Shah was toppled suddenly and surprisingly. But for those suffering it always seems so long. In the last book of the Bible, written when Christians were being killed for their faith, the author pictures them sheltering under the altar, crying out ‘How long O Lord?' – how long before justice is established. A cry that goes up every day. In response to this cry Jesus told one of his surprising stories. A woman who had a legal case against someone kept pestering a hard hearted judge. The judge had no sympathy for the woman and kept sending her away. Eventually he could stand it no longer and granted what she wanted. Jesus told the story to urge us not to give up. However hopeless things appear we are not to cease to pray and work for a world which is just. We are not simply to resign ourselves to things always being as they are now. I love the words of the American playwright Tennessee Williams. He said: I've met many people that seemed well-adjusted, but …I'm not sure I would want to be well-adjusted to things as they are. I would prefer to be racked by desire for things better than what they are, even for things which are unattainable, than to be satisfied with things as they are. Those words always bring to my mind one of the Beatitudes of Jesus ‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst that right might prevail'. Hunger and thirst are strong words but they reflect the longing of those not only in Iran but in so many places of the world where people are suffering - and the longing of those who stand in solidarity with them.
My guest is Robyn Curnow, a native South African who spent over two decades at CNN, where she hosted CNN's Newsroom, and anchored The International Desk with Robyn Curnow. Prior to that, she served as the network's Africa correspondent out of Johannesburg and covered Europe out of CNN's London Bureau. If you don't recognize her name, I bet you'll recognize her distinctive voice because you likely saw her interviews with some of the most prominent people of our lifetimes, including Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Robyn has covered news stories as diverse and dynamic as Africa's HIV/AIDS epidemic, the rise of Boko Haram, the 2010 World Cup, and the murder of Jammal Khashoggi. This work earned her and her colleagues multiple Emmy nominations, the Royal Television Society Award, and the duPont-Columbia Award. On her new podcast, Searching for America—which I love—Robyn explores our society and culture through the eyes of a new-comer. Like a modern-day de Tocqueville, she offers a sincerely interested outsider's perspective on the quirks of American life, including the Halloween Industrial complex, the obsession with high school graduation and college acceptance, turducken, and—most importantly—our collective love of Dolly Parton. She lives in Atlanta where she and I serve on a school board together.

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 175 - Embeth Davidtz - Actor / Director In this episode, of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with actor and director Embeth Davidtz (DON'T LETS GO TO THE DOGS TONIGHT, MAD MEN, SCHINDLER'S LIST). Embeth's directorial debut, DON'T LETS GO TO THE DOGS TONIGHT (an adaptation of the book of the same name written by Alexandra Fuller), is one of our favourite films from this past year, and we spend most of our conversation learning how Embeth pulled it off. The film is centered around the experiences of a young white child living in Zimbabwe at the end of the Rhodesian Bush War, and Embeth shares how her own childhood memories of South Africa's Apartheid influenced her telling of the story. Among many topics, we discuss: the film's effective use of voiceover, Embeth's approach to directing the lead child actress, managing a monkey break-in on location, the deceptive allure of the Steadicam, how the movie was financed, and whether or not she considered changing the title. We also reflect on the challenges of navigating a career in the entertainment industry, and we learn what Embeth has planned next. - Recommended viewing: DON'T LETS GO TO THE DOGS TONIGHT - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
