Acknowledgement of Country//Headlines//Branka Marijan, Senior Researcher at Project Ploughshares Canada, spoke with Priya earlier last week about the regulatory landscape covering military usage of artificial intelligence, reflecting on the second Responsible AI in the Military Domain or REAIM Summit held during September in Seoul, South Korea. On today's program, we'll hear part two of this conversation (you can listen back to part one here). Branka leads Project Ploughshares' research on the military and security implications of emerging technologies. Her work examines concerns regarding the development of autonomous weapons systems and the impact of artificial intelligence and robotics on security provision and trends in warfare. Her research interests include trends in warfare, civilian protection, use of drones, and civil-military relations.// Dr Jordana Silverstein, Senior Research Fellow in the Peter McMullin Centre on Statelessness and the granddaughter of Jewish Holocaust survivors and stateless refugees, joins us to speak about the upcoming launch of the Centre's new oral history podcast 'Being Stateless,' which she hosts. The podcast consists of interviews with people living in so-called Australia who have been stateless, offering a space to share stories, insights, knowledge and experiences of statelessness from people who migrated to this country in the second half of the twentieth century. Jordana is also the award-winning author of Cruel Care: A History of Children at Our Borders (2023) and Anxious Histories: Narrating the Holocaust in Jewish Communities at the Beginning of the Twenty-First Century (2015). The launch event for 'Being Stateless' is from 5:45PM on Wednesday 9 October at the Peter McMullin Centre on Statelessness in Arts West. Registrations are essential - you can register here.// Autistic disability activist Shaun Bickley caught up with Priya earlier this week to discuss the labour exploitation of disabled people in so-called Australia with a focus on the issue of wage theft by Australian Disability Enterprises or ADEs. Today, you'll hear part one of that conversation. Shaun is campaigning for an end to subminimum wage for disabled people in Australia, and has created an open letter, which you can sign onto as an individual or endorse on behalf of an organisation [Plain English version linked at top of letter].// Louis is a regional campaigner with Frack Free NT, a grassroots community group that has been fighting back against the destructive fracking industry in the Northern Territory for over a decade. Louis joined us in the studio all the way from Larrakia Country/Darwin to discuss urgent demand to stop Beetaloo Basin gas fracking projects, as Tamboran Resources has already started drilling for its gas project and plans to soon commence fracking, leaving precious water resources at risk.// Calls to action:Attention Brisbane Lions supporters! We may have won the flag, but we've got some important work to do. Write to club@lions.com.au (especially if you're a paid member) to raise your concern about our club's partnership with Caltex, a service station company owned by Chevron and identified as a BDS target. Find out more about Caltex's complicity in Israel's genocide in Gaza here, and #BoycottChevron.//Frack Free NT Urgent Actions:Contact your local MP or Minister for the Environment and Water Tanya Plibersek, urging them to provide an exact date or bring forward the advice requested from the Independent Expert Scientific Committee. This ensures that the advice is in before fracking starts, giving the Minister 28 days to act and stop the damage. She has the power, let's push her to use it! //Tell UniSuper to vote in favour of APA resolution. APA Group, Australia's largest gas pipeline operator, is pushing to construct pipelines to support fracking in the Beetaloo Basin. UniSuper, as APA's biggest shareholder has a crucial opportunity to live up to its climate claims and must commit to voting in favour of this resolution.//

Though the Madrona theater closed in 1980, several artists trace their current work to its heyday. Black Arts/West had slow beginnings. When Douglas Barnett opened the theater in 1969, there was nothing else like it. Its mission to "Educate, Enlighten, and Entertain" by making accessible theater for and about Black people first required appealing to the Black people living in the neighborhood. Eventually, Black Arts/West would bring professional actors, directors and dancers to Seattle to hold workshops and help community members of all ages hone their craft.  Black Arts/West closed in 1980 after operating for about 10years in Madrona, at 3406 East Union Street. Those leading the theater when it closed say its decline was due to both a loss of interest in Black theater in the community and a subsequent loss of federal funding.  Yet, over 40 years later, the theater's legacy of bringing professional Black theater to Seattle lives on, largely through several artists who were uplifted by the work of Black Arts/West. For this episode of the Black Arts Legacies Podcast, host Brooklyn Jamerson-Flowers talks to several artists who were involved with Black Arts/West and who have been dancing, acting and making art ever since. See the full Black Arts Legacies project, featuring profiles, photography and videos.  --- Credit Host/producer: Brooklyn Jamerson-Flowers Story editor: Sara Bernard Executive producer: Mark Baumgarten Audio support: Jonah Cohen

In this instalment of NAVA: In Conversation, Melbourne-based artist and producer Audrey ( aka ADHOC) speaks with Devon Taylor, the Executive Director of The Women's Circus, a 26-year-old arts organisation with a strong legacy for fantastic community and artistic support programs for women. The Women's Circus is also a key player in the Arts West partnership, that harnesses a collective of Arts organisations to revitalise and celebrate their place in Footscray, Melbourne.
