This is the conclusion of our 2-part conversation with Michael Hardt on his recently published book The Subversive Seventies. Part 1 is here. In this conversation we talk about the turn among management and the ruling class in the 1970's away from a politics of mediation and discuss the various ways that movements in the 1970's sought to deal with this shift in the political terrain. We talk about the false problem of the so-called debate between non-violence and violence. We discuss various movements including East Asian Anti-Japan Armed Front, Weather Underground, The Black Panther Party, and the Fatsa Commune.  A reminder that this conversation - like part 1 - was recorded in September and this is why we con't reference some more recent events like the Palestinian resistance and Israel's western backed genocidal war on Palestinians.  We also have a little bit of a discussion of Hardt's use of the notion of strategic multiplicity and the idea of non-priority between different forms of oppression within movements.  Lastly I know I acknowledged it last time, but I do mention Sekou Odinga in this episode, who as you all know passed away just recently. Again may he rest in power. For the month of January we've released three livestreams on our YouTube page. One with Josh Davidson and Eric King on Rattling the Cages: Oral Histories of North American Political Prisoners. Another is a wide-ranging discussion with Abdaljawad Omar on The Making of Palestinian Resistance and a conversation with Louis Allday on the debut issue of Ebb Magazine he edited, entitled “For Palestine.” Also on Sunday the 21st we have a livestream with Shireen Al-Adeimi on Yemen. Make sure you subscribe to our YouTube channel to follow our work there. We are just winding down our Sylvia Wynter study group and a new study group will be launching in February so keep an eye out for that.  The best way to support the show, to stay updated on our study groups, follow any writings Josh or I may publish, and keep track of our work on both YouTube and our audio podcast feed is to become a patron of the show.

Diversifying income streams, leaning into your voice, and navigating algorithms with Eric King from Easy Gay Oven. ----- Welcome to episode 442 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Eric King from Easy Gay Oven. How Eric King Took Easy Gay Oven Full-Time by Diversifying His Income Streams This podcast episode is chock-full of pearls of wisdom — there is really no other way to describe it! Eric has been running Easy Gay Oven full-time for just over two years, but you would think it had been much longer with all of the knowledge he has to share. Eric shares about the beginning of his career in journalism and social media and how it influenced his strategy for Easy Gay Oven. He also explains how he took his site full-time by diversifying his income streams (and what he'd do differently). Bjork and Eric also chat about brand partnerships, Substack, storytelling, and so much more in this wide-ranging interview. It's just a joy to listen to! In this episode, you'll learn: More about Eric's professional background at TED Conferences and how it impacted Easy Gay Oven. The importance of capturing someone's attention in the first 3 seconds of a video on social media (and how to do that!). How he combines the visual and written aspects of storytelling on social media and his blog. Why he wants to share more than just the recipes on his site (and why it prompted him to start a Substack newsletter). Why he focuses on both sentiment and analytics when measuring the success of this content. How he protects his mental health in this profession. How he balanced working full-time with starting Easy Gay Oven (and how he took his blog full-time). What his first few brand partnerships looked like (including one with Netflix Family!). Why he turned to Substack as a means to diversify his income. How he has navigated the ebbs and flows of brand partnerships.

This week on the show, you'll hear part of our conversation with Eric King and Josh Davidson. Josh has been on a few times to talk about collaborative inside-outside projects he works on such as the Certain Days calendar, the greeting cards he helped make of Indigenous political prisoner Oso Blanco's artwork to benefit Zapatista schools in Chiapas, and the Rattling The Cages book that he co-edited with Eric King. Eric was just released in December 2023 into a halfway house in Colorado after nearly 10 years in Federal prisons across the country. Eric is an anarchist who was incarcerated for an attempt to molotov the office of a Democratic Party official in Kansas City in solidarity with the then-going Ferguson Uprising following the murder of Michael Brown by police there. An antifascist and antiracist, Eric was moved around a lot during the 10 years he was inside and pitted against nazi prisoners in fight scenarios in a few instances, and near the end of his bid he was accused of assaulting an officer and successfully defending himself from a possible 20 year addition to his time inside but suffered intense isolation, insecurity, mail / phone and visitation blocks, moves across the country and physical restraint, ending up at the federal prison system's most intense prison, the supermax ADX in Florence, CO. For the hour, the guests speak about prisoner support, putting the book together, the implications and effects of long term isolation related topics. You can find more of Erics thoughts and updates at SupportEricKing.Org and similarly named social media accounts. Our past chats with Josh  Our past interviews with Eric Announcement Hunger Strike at Red Onion State Prison (VA) Prisoners at the Red Onion State Prison in Virginia have been on hunger strike since December 26th against the illegal and cruel use of solitary confinement at the facility in spite of procedures put into place last summer by the Virginia government. Here're some words from the support site for Minister of Defense of the Revolutionary Intercommunal Black Panther Party, Kevin "Rashid" Johnson. From rashidmod.com : “On Tuesday, December 26, 2023, several prisoners confined at Virginia's Red Onion State Prison began a hunger strike to protest the continued use of long-term solitary confinement within the institution.Despite critical concern, outcry from the public and prisoner populations in the state, incarcerated people are still subjected to this brutal practice which has been renamed “restorative housing” since July 1, 2023 when measures were passed to limit its use in the state.  Leading these prisoners in this effort is longtime prison activist, revolutionary writer and artist, Kevin “Rashid” Johnson. Rashid has stated that no one will take any food at all until demands are met. Some of the strike participants have underlying health concerns that make the undertaking of such a demonstration particularly risky. Rashid, himself, is recovering from multiple rounds of radiation to treat prostate cancer as well as suffering from untreated heart disease/congestive heart failure. This is why the public's support is especially needed. We are asking that calls, emails, and letters be sent to the Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) officials as well as Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin's office voicing support for the strikers and condemnation for the inhumane use of long-term solitary confinement/restorative housing.” Red Onion Hunger Strike Participants: Kevin “Rashid” Johnson – 1007485 Jason Barrett – 1092874 Rodney Lester – 1429887 Charles Cousino – 2213403 Eric Thompson – 1208012 Joe Thomas – 1193196 Who To Contact: VADOC~ Central Administration; USPS— P.O.

Pastor Eric King is back with us to tell us about the new partnership with a non-profit for the project that came about miraculously...life-lessons about walking by faith and trusting Him. Since he has been back from Africa in early March I have received about $38k donated from our prayer breakfast group and some donations from our church and a few others. These funds have helped build 2 buildings, a science lab, a dining facility for the school and an orphanage. They are also able to build fencing and gates for the property, purchase school supplies, mattresses, mosquito netting, bunk beds and property to plant crops for food sustainability for the orphanage and school.

In our latest episode, Scott talks with Josh Davidson (@certaindays) co-editor of "Rattling the Cages," about his new oral history of political prisoners in North America. Josh, along with co-editor Eric King, has put together over 35 interviews of political prisoners and former political prisoners. From members of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Front to whistle-blower Chelsea Manning to members of SHAC and the Earth Liberation Front, the book dives into life on the inside for people with radical politics. We hope to capture a bit of that in the interview. Bio// Josh Davidson is an abolitionist who is involved in numerous projects, including the Certain Days collective that publishes the annual Freedom for Political Prisoners calendar and the Children's Art Project with political prisoner Oso Blanco. Josh also works in communications with the Zinn Education Project, which promotes the teaching of radical people's history in classrooms and provides free lessons and resources for educators. He lives in Eugene, Oregon. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Outro- "Police Story" by Black Flag Links// +AK Press: Rattling the Cages (https://bit.ly/3RMbKGv) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠ +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠ Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠ This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

This week, we dig into the pre-trial hearings and jury selection for Ayla King, Stop Cop City movement's first and only co-defendant so far to be granted a speedy trial. We're joined by Silver, an on-the-ground correspondent among many in Atlanta focused on supporting the collective defense against the State of Georgia's RICO indictment. Stay tuned for future coverage of the trials as they unfold. We will be focusing on the pretrial proceedings of defendant Ayla King, who has bravely flexed their right to a speedy trial and whose case we will be following more in-depth when opening arguments begin on January 10th. To help us unpack some of the media and legal intricacies in this case we will hear from Jewel, a North Carolina based lawyer (member of NLG Mass Defense) followed by an interview with Matt from Atlanta Community Press Collective. Jewel will help us understand some of the strategy of exercising a right to speedy trial while Matt will speak as one of the only members of local media to actively cover jury selection. First, some background to this case for listeners less familiar: On August 29th the State of Georgia filed an indictment against 61 people in the movement to Stop Cop City and defend Weelaunee people's park. The state alleges that music festival attendees and protestors engaged in racketeering, domestic terrorism, arson and money laundering-- all as part of a so called mob conspiracy to halt construction of the massively unpopular expansion of police traning grounds in Southeast Atlanta-- also known as Cop City. This indictment follows a years-long, powerful and popular struggle against the city of Atlanta and their Police Foundation's attempts to build the 90 million dollar training grounds. The expansion of this site not only follows the widespread anti-police movements of 2020 but further bolsters US backed military training such the Georgia International Law Enforcement Exchange (aka GILEE) - a direct exhange program between Atlanta police and the Israeli Occupational Forces, who are currently waging genocide in the occupied Gaza strip of Palestine. We have experienced the unrelenting and escalating criminal charges (such as domestic terrorism charges for so called trespassing on public land, racketeering charges for mutual aid), raids of collective organizing and healing spaces, and even the assassination of a beloved comrade, Tortuguita. Not only have these atrocities failed to stop the movement against Cop City, but they have inspired renewed resistance and solidarity from across the country and across the world. Announcement Noise Demo on NYE at Buncombe Jail If you're around Asheville on Sunday, December 31st, you're invited by a coalition of abolitionist crews to attend the New Years Noise Demo, gathering at 7pm at the ampitheater at 630 Pack Square and to bring things for making some noise.
