Can Labour afford to keep ignoring its left? This week on the Prospect Podcast, Alona and Imaan are joined by Carys Afoko, writer and podcast host of Over the Top, Under the Radar.Carys discusses whether Starmer's rightward shift will pay off. She analyses why the last general election was a “breakaway election” away from the major parties—with the rise of progressive independents, Greens and Liberal Democrat MPs—and whether this is just a blip, or represents a lasting shift away from Labour.Plus, is the Labour party “structurally racist”? How is the war on Gaza reshaping the UK's political landscape? And what will the 2029 election look like?You can read Carys's piece ‘Labour is ignoring the threat from its left' at prospectmagazine.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

Better Angels with Sarah Brown

In this new series of the Better Angels podcast, Sarah Brown is exploring how different personality types call for change. In this episode of the series, Sarah speaks to a range of guests about the new styles of campaigning, ones that look different to what we usually see and don’t always start with big budgets. These campaigns are often down to one person, affected in a personal way, which can launch some of the most innovative ideas. First we hear from James Ashton and Viveka Alvestrand, co-founders of Oscar’s Book Prize, an annual prize for the best books written for under-fives, awarded each year in memory of Oscar Ashton. Sarah talks to James and Viveka about their young son Oscar, who passed away 2012 when he was three and a half years old and how Oscar’s Book Prize has grown over its six years of operation. Next, Sarah speaks with Ivan Rosales, a campaigner whose own immigration status gave him insight into the experiences of those living in limbo right now in the United States, as undocumented young people. Using his experience, he founded the New York State Leadership Council, an organisation that empowers immigrant youth to drop the fear and challenge the American immigration system.  Sarah then speaks with Carys Afoko, co-founder of Level Up, a new feminist organisation launched at the start of 2018, with a mission to build a community of feminists who can work together to end sexism in the UK. Paul Divakar, a renowned Dalit activist and former General Secretary of the National Campaign on Dalit Human Rights, based in Delhi, speaks with Sarah about a personal trauma that inspired him to act. Finally we hear from Kirsty Mcneill, Executive Director of Policy, Advocacy and Change at Save the Children, who is leading teams to galvanise the public and influence policy makers on humanitarian action, global development and help for children here in the UK.

Part music show, part autobiography, Human Records is a weekly podcast that will expand your understanding of humanity. Join Kathleen as she interviews a diversity of humans, with each guest sharing 7 records to musically illustrate their own journey. In this episode join Kathleen as she interviews Carys Afoko, a communication director from Brixton, London. Sign up to Carys’s newsletter here: http://welevelup.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6e571ba37fd5372883ac0b7ec&id=40b93db52b and find out more about the feminist organisation Level Up here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1815207188715789/ Human Records challenges stereotypes by amplifying the voices of those who aren’t well represented in the mainstream media. Kathleen prioritises interviewing the working class, women, people of colour, and those who face challenges because of their sexuality, physical or mental health. Whilst most of the people in the world fall into these categories, our current media is dominated by a minority of white privileged straight men. This podcast offers perspectives that go beyond the dominant ‘white male lens’. If you’d like to walk a mile in another person’s shoes but they don’t fit, then why not spend an hour with them in your ears? If Desert Island Discs were to breed with Humans of New York, this might be the offspring! Produced and hosted by Kathleen Cassidy Email: humanrecordspodcast@gmail.com
