 NGOs and Non-Profit organizations are seen as the most productive way of having a positive impact mitigating the worst excesses of Capitalism.  But is that what is happening?  Are NGOs and non-profits acting as a break on the excess of the system or do they perform a function of expanding its exploitative nature.  You can guess what conclusions we came too.  Check us out!The Nonprofit-Corporate Complex: An Integral Component and Driving Force of Imperialism in the Phase of Monopoly-Finance Capitalismhttps://youtu.be/nItmqkrpWHU To see all our episodes go to:What's Left?

There's no rest for Dundee United in the most hectic portion of the campaign. The team pick the bones out of a turgid game against Aberdeen at Tannadice – and analyse why the surface is in such a state, and what comes next for it. We discuss the relationship between the United hierarchy and the Ultras following statement and counter-statement this week, before looking ahead to an onerous challenge at Fir Park. Across the road, Steven Pressley reckons Ethan Hamilton should be in the conversation for Scotland. Is he right? And how many other Ethan Hamiltons are waiting to be unearthed south of the border? Pressley has plenty of options following a worthwhile bounce game in midweek, while Joe Westley could be back to face Hibs. The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton is in the hot-seat, joined by United correspondent Alan Temple and former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan.

Viola Bradford started working at The Southern Courier when she was 14. On July 26, she will celebrate the newspaper's 60th anniversary with the culmination of a years-long effort to put a marker at the newspaper's former office on Commerce Street.A group of Harvard University journalism students formed The Southern Courier in 1965 to document the Civil Rights Movement. The newspaper covered Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi and worked to recruit people from the area to report.Bradford's work with the Courier led her to a career in journalism. She earned five degrees, including a doctorate from Howard University. She taught journalism at Alabama State University for about five years. The Southern Courier offered important coverage from 1965 to 1968.“The Southern Courier didn't just report the news—it disrupted the silence,” said Hardy. “It dared to tell the truth about the South from the people living it. At Alabama Values, we carry that same spirit. We're a grassroots communications organization, using narrative to tell the stories others try to bury. Honoring the Courier is personal—it reminds us that truth-telling has always been a tool of resistance.”The Southern Courier photo archives—over 10,000 images, including iconic photos of Dr. King—were donated by Peppler to the Alabama Department of Archives and History. The complete newspaper collection is housed at Tuskegee University.About Sankofa Servants, Inc.: Dr. Bradford s Founder of Sankofa Servants, Inc. is a community-driven organization dedicated to preserving cultural history, promoting justice through education, and empowering future generations through service and storytelling.© 2026 All Rights Reserved© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Radio @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

On Thursday, February 19, speakers dug into the latest revelations in the Epstein saga, including high-profile arrests abroad, and asked the pressing question: why is accountability happening overseas while America stalls?In this urgent Big Tent conversation, Camaron Stevenson and Nina Burleigh of COURIER, moderated by Kimberly Atkins Stohr of "The Boston Globe", explored what the document releases reveal about power, money, and political protection—and how entrenched interests may be slowing justice at home. They examined congressional inaction, the role of media pressure, and whether partisan gridlock is shielding key figures. The discussion made clear that transparency is not automatic; it's forced by public demand.Most importantly, this wasn't just analysis—it was a call to action. Attendees were urged to push representatives for full, un-redacted disclosures, support investigative journalism, and keep sustained pressure on institutions that would prefer silence.Accountability isn't a spectator sport—it's a citizen's responsibility.Want to do something tangible to help protect democracy?

In this sermon titled "Tombs, Testimony & Towns," we explore the radical transformation of the Gerasene demoniac as a "Call from Chaos to Courier". By examining Mark 5:1–20, we see Jesus cross a storm-tossed sea to rescue a single man trapped in the "De-Creation" of spiritual darkness, isolation, and self-destruction. Just as God brought order to the formless chaos in Genesis, Jesus restores this man's Imago Dei, moving him from the graveyard of past labels and unrevealed sin into a "right mind" and restored dignity. Rather than allowing the man to leave on the boat, Jesus gives him a higher commission: to return to his own community and proclaim the mercy of God. This message serves as a powerful reminder that no tomb is too deep for Christ's reach and that our greatest moments of deliverance are meant to become our most powerful testimonies of grace

Will Alex Murdaugh get his murder convictions overturned?  Investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell recap everything that went down Wednesday when Team Murdaugh and state prosecutor Creighton Waters argued their cases for and against a new murder trial in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court. Despite a performance that can only be described as legally underwhelming, Alex Murdaugh may be closer than ever to getting a new murder trial.  To the surprise of no one, Dick Harpootlian used his time in front of the justices to do some good ole boy flirting, telling stories about himself and… Aaron Burr…? Mandy and Liz dig into the systemic rot underneath the theatrics: the two-tiered justice system that keeps men like Alex Murdaugh in the game, the media's troubling tendency to smooth the jagged edges of truth, and why a new trial would have absolutely nothing to do with innocence and everything to do with power, ego, and money. Lot's to cover… Let's Dive in…

Another Premiership fixture, another blank drawn for Dundee. Four on the spin. But the 1-0 defeat at Falkirk for the goal-shy Dee was a particularly galling one, with Yan Dhanda missing a 96th minute penalty. How does Steven Pressley get them firing? Meanwhile, Pressley reckons the Dark Blues are still deep in the relegation scrap. Is he right? Another postponement for Dundee United. What next? And will the SPFL start to take interest in the repeated call-offs? On the pitch, Nikolaj Moller is offski after just six months. We take a proper look and the pros and cons of United's recruitment process. With new arrival Emmanuel Agyei making his mark, will he make his debut at Falkirk – as United seek to do better against the Bairns than Dundee. Also, why the bottom six may not be ALL bad for clubs on both sides of the street. Back in our Meadowside studio are Courier Sport writer Alan Temple, former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan and The Courier's head of sport Sean Hamilton.

Episode 51: The Unfortunate Pirate For over a century, "Annabel Lee" has been read as Edgar Allan Poe's final love poem—a haunting elegy to his child bride Virginia, written months before his death. But what if we've been wrong about the poem's true subject all along? In this episode, Mike follows a trail of evidence from a forgotten 1827 tale about a murderous pirate to the windswept shores of Sullivan's Island, where Poe was stationed as a young soldier. Along the way, he uncovers a family accusation that pursued Poe his entire life, a poem he was forced to burn, and the testimony of a woman who nursed him through his darkest hours. What emerges is a radical reinterpretation of America's most famous poem of loss—and a story about what it means to defend someone you love when the whole world has turned against them. The grave of Annabel Lee has finally been found. It was never where anyone thought to look.   Sources Referenced in Episode 51: The Unfortunate Pirate Primary Sources & Archival Materials Ellis & Allan Papers, Library of Congress (John Allan's 1824 letter to William Henry Leonard Poe) Charleston Courier, December 4, 1807 ("The Mourner" by D.M.C.; theatrical advertisements for Placide's company) Charleston News and Courier, September 15, 1912 (account of the Pirate's House legend) The North American (Baltimore periodical containing "The Pirate" by W.H.P., published November 27, 1827) Flag of Our Union (Boston, 1849 — publication of "To My Mother") New York Tribune (publication of "Annabel Lee," October 1849) Broadway Journal, 1845 (Poe's defense of his mother's profession) John Henry Ingram correspondence with Marie Louise Shew (1875–1877) Works by Edgar Allan Poe "Annabel Lee" (1849) "To My Mother" (1849) "Song" (from Tamerlane and Other Poems, 1827) "To M.

CHARLESTON GOTHIC Episode 4: Tekeli   The Charleston Library Society has survived fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, and war—emerging each time with its treasures intact. Among those treasures: the world's most complete archive of Charleston newspapers from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.   In this episode, we enter the stacks where a ghost named Hinson is said to wander, where Henry Timrod's blood-stained manuscript bears witness to a poet's final days, and where a century-old scholarly article waited decades for someone to understand what it revealed. What was Edgar Allan Poe really searching for when he visited Charleston's archives during his time at Fort Moultrie? For over a hundred years, the legend said he came looking for pirate treasure—the buried gold that would inspire "The Gold-Bug." But a 1922 discovery by a Texas scholar suggested something far more personal. Following threads that connect the Poetry Society of South Carolina, a Harvard-trained philologist, and the vanished stage of the Charleston Theatre, we trace Poe's footsteps to a secret hidden in plain sight—one that may unlock the strangest passage he ever wrote.   The answer lies where it has always been: in the newspapers, in the archives, in the advertisements for a play called Tekeli.   Sources:   Books   - Allen, Hervey.

We're seeing the same far-right media consolidation in America as during Putin's rise to power. Bari Weiss is the new Roger Ailes, hired to destroy CBS News. The far-right Ellisons are aggressively going after Warner Bros. to build a media monopoly to dumb down more Americans so that we're easier to control.  That's why Andrea spoke at Courier News' Courage & Cowardice event in Washington, DC on December 11. Courier, the team that built the searchable Epstein files database released by Congress, brought together independent journalists and creators who still believe journalism is a public good. The main focus of the conversation, which you can listen to here on Gaslit Nation, was how to build and sustain independent media. Andrea was joined by progressive YouTuber Jack Cocchiarella, Brian Beutler, formerly of Crooked Media and The New Republic who now runs  Off Message; TikTok comedian Meredith Lynch; and in a discussion moderated by veteran editor Mark Jacob, formerly of the Chicago Tribune, to talk about media capitulation and how to fight back. Here's some info on the event.  Luckily, the Media and Democracy Project (MAD) exists and provided us with the following actions you can take:  Make videos highlighting moments of real accountability like celebrating the ABC reporter Mary Bruce who pressed MBS and Trump with tough, substantive questions. Credit your sources clearly and encourage your audience to click through and read the original reporting. Introduce your audience to journalism and media-education initiatives such as States Newsroom, the News Literacy Project, and Rebuild Local News. Synthesize and share this essential explainer from Democracy Forward on the link between local news and democracy: https://democracyfund.org/idea/new-research-explores-connection-between-democracy-and-local-news/ If you're a journalist, whether independent or in a newsroom, regularly lift up the work of your colleagues.  Everyone should keep the conversation of journalism being the bedrock of a democracy front and center. Use your time online wisely: repost, share stories, and boost public-interest journalism whenever you can.  Most importantly, stay connected with MAD. 

In this holiday edition, investigative journalists ⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and⁠ ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ talk with attorney⁠ Eric Bland about their Festivus grievances and the ongoing legal harassment they face in the Beach v. Parker civil conspiracy case. Eric explains how unlimited budgets enable clients to weaponize discovery processes, while Mandy and Liz discuss their decision to speak publicly about Greg Parker's tactics rather than remain silent.  Plus, Mandy shares some observations from her eye-opening jury duty experience highlighting systemic inefficiencies and her encounters with familiar figures in the 14th Circuit. Then we're discussing newly revealed details from JP Miller's federal indictment for cyberstalking and lying to investigators—including the chilling allegation that he called Victim #1 (likely Mica Francis) over 50 times on March 11, 2024, how JP allegedly lied about slashing her tires and allegedly lied to federal investigators about local police instructing him to leave her alone.  Despite the frustrations, the team remains defiant, grateful for their community's support, and ready for the major trials and appeals ahead in 2026. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Mandy's Parker's Kitchen Gas Boycott Post - Facebook, Dec 20, 2025

Donald Trump's kleptocracy didn't happen overnight–it was part of the Kremlin's long game. With reports of Russia trying to explode planes headed to the US, we're running out of time to wake up before it's too late. In this week's bonus show for Gaslit Nation's Patreon supporters, who keep our independent journalism going in these dark times of institutional rot, media capitulation, and complacency, Andrea warns that we're nearing the point of no return. Putin can now say the U.S. and Russia are aligned, because they are. Trump's regime is declaring a return to the Monroe Doctrine, claiming the Western Hemisphere belongs to the U.S. That's exactly what Putin does in Eastern Europe. The Pentagon is handing Trump's gestapo-like immigration agenda $2 billion on top of $75 billion for ICE in Trump's Big Ugly Bill. Like Putin, Trump is building a gulag and gearing up for conflict with our neighbors, including Mexico, Venezuela, and whoever else he wants to casually kill. As we've long warned, Trump wants to become the Putin of North America, because that's his plan for staying in power indefinitely: enrich his family, build a dynastic oligarchy, and protect it with sadistic security services. To help us fight back and stay grounded in the gaslighting, this special bonus show includes a discussion of Gaslit Nation's Book Club: Total Resistance by Hans von Dach–a civilian guerrilla resistance guide produced by a Swiss military theorist in preparation for Soviet occupation during the Cold War–and Deaf Republic, a play-like book of poems by Ukrainian-born poet Ilya Kaminsky.  "At the trial of God, we will ask: why did you allow all this?," Kaminsky writes, "And the answer will be an echo: why did you allow all this?" We have to stop the worst from happening and wake people up before it's too late. For ways to fight back, check out, and share, the Gaslit Nation Action Guide on GaslitNationPod.com. The full discussion of this month's book club will be published on Patreon Monday morning, along with the Zoom link for the Gaslit Nation Salon at 4pm ET later that day. To get access to that, join our community on Patreon at Patreon.com/Gaslit and get invites to exclusive events, bonus shows, all episodes ad free, and more.

Thank you to everyone who supports the show – we could not make Gaslit Nation without you.  Show Notes: Today in Washington, DC! Celebrate voices of resistance with COURIER. Reflect on 2025's lessons and explore how courage drives the fights ahead. Andrea will be speaking tonight, joined by other independent journalists and activists.
