In this episode, Simon and Julie sit down with John to talk about the murder of Jonathan Joss, a two-spirit Indigenous actor who was shot and killed on his own property. They say he deserved better. This wasn't just homophobia—it was also about race, and ignoring that - erases part of what made him a target. They also dig into the Department of Education calling New York's Native mascot ban “discriminatory.” At the same time, the military is renaming ships that honored brave people like Harvey Milk and Dolores Huerta—while racist mascots are somehow still on the table. And they close with Leonard Peltier's call to change the “American Indian Movement” to the “Indigenous Movement,” and what that shift could mean for first peoples.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today in AI is a daily recap of the latest news and developments in the AI industry. See your story and want to be featured in an upcoming episode? Reach out at tonyphoang.com Tesla's shift from being an electric vehicle leader to a pioneer in autonomous robotics represents a major strategic transformation. This evolution is driven by advancements in AI and autonomous driving technology, with the goal of revolutionizing both transportation and manufacturing sectors. However, Tesla faces significant technical, regulatory, and competitive challenges that could affect its success and long-term influence in the industry. Scale AI's partnership with Qatar aims to develop advanced AI tools across various sectors, enhancing public services and driving technological progress in the nation. This collaboration is expected to significantly increase Scale AI's revenue and position Qatar as a leader in AI innovation. Despite these potential benefits, the partnership must navigate challenges related to technological infrastructure, geopolitical implications, and workforce adaptation. OpenAI has established a temporary advisory board, including labor leader Dolores Huerta, to guide its philanthropic efforts as it transitions from a nonprofit to a for-profit entity. This move seeks to balance the organization's mission with its new business model, addressing ethical concerns and ensuring equitable distribution of AI benefits. Additionally, OpenAI has introduced two advanced AI reasoning models, o3 and o4-mini, which enhance AI's ability to understand and analyze images, expanding its applications in education, science, and engineering. The o3 model offers detailed analyses of visual data, while the o4-mini model provides a cost-effective solution for quick AI tasks. Nvidia is facing significant financial losses due to U.S. export controls on its H20 AI chips, resulting in canceled orders and increased scrutiny of its sales practices. The company's adherence to these regulations highlights the broader geopolitical tensions affecting the technology sector. Nvidia must navigate the challenges of maintaining technological leadership while complying with national security concerns. OpenAI is close to acquiring Windsurf, an advanced AI coding tool, for $3 billion to bolster its position in the competitive generative AI market. This acquisition aims to address limitations in OpenAI's current models and enhance its technical capabilities. The move has the potential to revolutionize AI-assisted coding and reduce development costs, strengthening OpenAI's competitive edge.

Subscribe to Stories of Resistance podcast hereToday, March 31, is Cesar Chavez Day. The day, celebrating the birth and life of the great U.S. farmworker labor leader. In 1962, Cesar Chavez co-founded the United Farm Workers, alongside Dolores Huerta. The organization would go on to wage strikes and boycotts, winning tremendous victories for workers picking the crops in the fields of California and elsewhere in the United States. In 1969, he was featured on the cover of Time Magazine. In 1970, Chavez and the UFW won higher wages for grape pickers, after a 5-year-long California grape strike.Chavez's legacy lives on.But that legacy is also complicated. Cesar Chavez and the UFW fought for immigration reform, but also fought undocumented immigration (and pushed for deportations), under the pretext that undocumented migrants were used to drive down wages and break UFW strikes. This is our special Cesar Chavez Day bonus episode of Stories of Resistance — a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange.

In Civil Rights in Bakersfield: Segregation and Multiracial Activism in the Central Valley (University of Texas Press, 2024), Oliver Rosales uncovers the role of the multiracial west in shaping the course of US civil rights history. Focusing on Bakersfield, one of the few sizable cities within California's Central Valley for much of the twentieth century in a region most commonly known as a bastion of political conservatism, oil, and industrial agriculture, Rosales documents how multiracial coalitions emerged to challenge histories of racial segregation and discrimination. He recounts how the region was home to both the historic farm worker movement, led by César Chávez, Dolores Huerta, and Larry Itliong, and also a robust multiracial civil rights movement beyond the fields. This multiracial push for civil rights reform included struggles for fair housing, school integration, public health, media representation, and greater political representation for Black and Brown communities. In expanding on this history of multiracial activism, Rosales further explores the challenges activists faced in community organizing and how the legacies of coalition building contribute to ongoing activist efforts in the Central Valley of today. *At around 1:07:00, Oliver said Teresa Rodriguez instead of the correct name, Rebecca Flores.

Episode 7 - 1199 and the UFW If you're not a patron you can get the full episode by visiting patreon.com/workstoppage and support us with $5 a month. In the years following the McCarthyite purges of the early 1950s, the pace of progress in the labor movement cooled from its heady heights of the CIO and the 1946 strike wave. But new struggles still emerged all over the country, and women workers continued to break barriers. The fight by Local 1199 to organize the majority Black and Puerto Rican women hospital workers of New York City became an epic struggle part of the broader national civil rights movement. On the other side of the country, a movement to organize agricultural workers made its mark with the intervention of organizers like Dolores Huerta. The fight for basic human rights for farm workers led to a nationwide boycott and a titanic struggle that lasted nearly 5 years.

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Today we're talking about the Chicano Movement. Before this movement, just saying the word “boycott” could get you SIX MONTHS in prison. And many Americans weren't even allowed to take a break, drink water, or even use the bathroom. So yeah, this movement was pretty necessary. And it lead to one of the greatest fights for civil rights in US history. Episode Advertisers Include: Apostrophe, Hello Fresh, Ouai, & ShipStation.

Co-founder of the United Farm Workers Association, Dolores Clara Fernandez Huerta is one of the most influential labor activists of the 20th century and a leader of the Chicano civil rights movement.  Born on April 10, 1930 in Dawson, New Mexico, Huerta was the second of three children of Alicia and Juan Fernandez, a farm worker and miner who became a state legislator in 1938. Her parents divorced when Huerta was three years old, and her mother moved to Stockton, California with her children. In 1955 Huerta began her career as an activist when she co-founded the Stockton chapter of the Community Service Organization (CSO), which led voter registration drives and fought for economic improvements for Hispanics. She also founded the Agricultural Workers Association. Through a CSO associate, Huerta met activist César Chávez, with whom she shared an interest in organizing farm workers. In 1962, Huerta and Chávez founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA), the predecessor of the United Farm Workers' Union (UFW), which formed three year later. Huerta served as UFW vice president until 1999.Throughout her work with the UFW, Huerta organized workers, negotiated contracts, and advocated for safer working conditions including the elimination of harmful pesticides. She also fought for unemployment and healthcare benefits for agricultural workers. Huerta was the driving force behind the nationwide table grape boycotts in the late 1960s that led to a successful union contract by 1970.The recipient of many honors, Huerta received the Eleanor Roosevelt Human Rights Award in 1998 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2012. As of 2015, she was a board member of the Feminist Majority Foundation, the Secretary-Treasurer Emeritus of the United Farm Workers of America, and the President of the Dolores Huerta Foundation.https://www.doloreshuerta.org/ You will find the full transcript at https://interspanish.buzzsprout.comAs always, I really appreciate your thoughts and feedback about the show.

Cesar Chavez  (March 31, 1927 – April 23, 1993) was an American labor leader and civil rights activist. Along with Dolores Huerta, he co-founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA), later to become the United Farm Workers (UFW) labor union.Born in Yuma, Arizona to a Mexican-American family, Chavez began his working life as a manual laborer before spending two years in the United States Navy. Relocating to California, where he married, he got involved in the Community Service Organization (CSO), through which he helped laborers register to vote. In the 1960s he began organizing strikes among farmworkers, most notably the successful Delano grape strike of 1965–1970.Chavez emphasized direct nonviolent tactics, including pickets and boycotts, to pressure farm owners into granting strikers' demands.Cesar Chavez died in bed on April 23, 1993. He was aged 66.[409]His birthday is a federal commemorative holiday in several U.S. states, while many places are named after him, and in 1994 he posthumously received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Sad news for all of us: producer Rachael Cusick— who brought us soul-stirring stories rethinking grief (https://zpr.io/GZ6xEvpzsbHU) and solitude (https://zpr.io/eT5tAX6JtYra), as well as colorful musings on airplane farts (https://zpr.io/CNpgUijZiuZ4) and belly flops (https://zpr.io/uZrEz27z63CB) and Blueberry Earths (https://zpr.io/EzxgtdTRGVzz)— is leaving the show. So we thought it perfect timing to sit down with her and revisit another brainchild of hers, The Cataclysm Sentence, a collection of advice for The End. To explain: one day in 1961, the famous physicist Richard Feynman stepped in front of a Caltech lecture hall and posed this question to a group of undergraduate students: “If, in some cataclysm, all of scientific knowledge were to be destroyed, and only one sentence was passed on to the next generation of creatures, what statement would contain the most information in the fewest words?” Now, Feynman had an answer to his own question—a good one. But his question got the entire team at Radiolab wondering, what did his sentence leave out? So we posed Feynman's cataclysm question to some of our favorite writers, artists, historians, futurists—all kinds of great thinkers. We asked them “What's the one sentence you would want to pass on to the next generation that would contain the most information in the fewest words?” What came back was an explosive collage of what it means to be alive right here and now, and what we want to say before we go.
