Synopsis: Members of PNLL are experimenting with new ways of doing politics and economics in communities across the US, focusing on local solutions and shared resources. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: People across the country are resisting authoritarianism in creative and powerful ways, and this is just the start. The folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. Building a brighter future requires a vision of economic and social justice — and lots of practice. Today on Laura Flanders & Friends, we look at some of those practical experiments and paths for radical change, and discuss why they're just as important as resistance. The members of PNLL, a multiracial, multiethnic consortium of six community-based organizations, are doing politics and economics differently in real places across the U.S. right now. Joining us are Edget Betru, an attorney, activist and Coordinator of the People's Network for Land & Liberation; David Cobb, PNLL staff person and Co-coordinator of the U.S. Solidarity Economy Network; and Blair Evans, Founder and Executive Director of Incite Focus, a production and training lab based in Idlewild, Michigan. Find out how to build for the future — even in the toughest circumstances. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on William Morris's News From Nowhere. “We've been colonized in our minds . . . Involving people in day-to-day produce, meeting their needs through a different way, through thinking, Hey, who in my neighborhood knows how to fix this? . . . It's really that shift in consciousness that needs to happen that's going to allow for this new economy to emerge.” - Edget Betru “My mama and my mamaw and my papa who raised me taught me a lesson as a little boy, and that is, there's enough to go around as long as we share. That made sense to me when I was five years old. It makes sense to me now when I'm 63 years old. There's enough to go around as long as we share. It's just as simple as that.” - David Cobb “We can make things that make things, we can design and build our own equipment that can then use locally sourced materials, hyper localizing the supply chain . . . We can stop feeding the monster that's consuming us and actually disconnect from that process and use what we have.” - Blair Evans Guests: • Edget Betru: Coordinator, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Board Member, Community Movement Builders • David Cobb: Staff, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Manager, Butterfly Impact Fund; Co-Coordinator, U.S. Solidarity Economy Network • Blair Evans: Coalition Member, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Founder & Executive Director, Incite Focus; Designer & Trainer, Fab Lab Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Synopsis: Surviving and Thriving in Turbulent Times Third World Newsreel's Enduring Legacy This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: It's almost unheard of for an independent media collective to survive as long as Third World Newsreel has. Since 1968, they have chronicled some of the most pivotal movements in human history and continue to expand on their collection of over 700 titles. There's lots to learn about how they've adapted through technological revolutions, political persecutions, philanthropic booms and busts — and how the oldest media arts collective in the U.S. is making do in today's “media carnage”, as Laura Flanders puts it. Joining us are JT Takagi, an independent filmmaker, sound recordist, and the longtime executive director of Third World Newsreel. Tami Gold is an artist and activist whose documentaries grapple with everything from imperialism to sex work. Her films include My Country Occupied, Another Brother and Land Rain Fire among many more. Puerto Rican-born Juan Carlos Dávila works in film as well as TV, where he reports on social movements around environmentalism, militarism and the struggles of the working class on the island. His films include The Stand-By Generation, Viequez: An Endless Battle and Drills of Liberation. Join us as we look at the past, present and future of Third World Newsreel and ask how film can be used as a tool for organizing. “I'd say we feel more urgent now than ever before. Every day there's something happening that makes it clear that our rights and liberties, and people's lives all over the world are at stake. Not being in touch with the history and media that shows the truth of what's going on is really decimating people's ability to, as Juan said, know what to follow and what to do.” - JT Takagi “We need to retake the theater, the physical space that is being ignored by the corporations. Perhaps now that is the opportunity that we have . . . A theater is being rented by people who are organizers, and they're using their collective spirit and know-how to organize huge, huge crowds to come.” - Tami Gold “People can shoot stuff with the phone . . . I see a lot in Puerto Rico that people are still wanting to produce with the corporate industry standards. Many young filmmakers like myself tend to think that we need so many personnel to be doing films. Right now we can actually make films with less.” - Juan Carlos Dávila Guests: • Juan Carlos Dávila: Documentary Filmmaker, Multimedia Journalist, Puerto Rico Correspondent, Democracy Now! • Tami Gold: Filmmaker, Artist, Activist • JT Takagi: Executive Director, Third World Newsreel Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

NO RESERVATIONS — Welcome to a new season of The Full Bleed. This year, we're going to be talking to makers and creators, of course, but also more about the business of magazines. Because, let's face it, making a magazine is not easy. It never has been. But we're seeing more and more magazines—in print—out in the world and there's a reason for that. At a time where the digital world is a messy place, and that's being polite, magazines are perfectly positioned as a part of an “analog” wave that is going to become more and more important in the media and in marketing. We open the season with Nathan Thornburgh from Roads & Kingdoms, a media brand that started out as a media brand—stay with me here—with the support of Anthony Bourdain, yes, that one, and then pivoted to becoming a kind of gastronomic tour company with loads of content on their website, and has now published their first magazine. And it won't be their last. Travel, especially these days, is pure analog, a completely human experience. It touches the senses in a way not many things can. Think about Anthony Bourdain's work and you think of how immersed he was everywhere he went. Whether he was writing about the reality of a kitchen or filming a meal of noodles at a roadside stand in Thailand, he was all in. His was a very human-centered media, full of sights and smells and sounds and people. And that's what Roads & Kingdoms will try and replicate. On the page. On every page. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Dr. Carli Anderson joins hosts Hank Smith and John Bytheway to explore the legal, and linguistic depth of these foundational narratives, revealing Sarah's majesty, Hagar's complexity, and the deeply personal, covenant-centered relationship God forms with each of them.ALL EPISODES/SHOW NOTESfollowHIM website: https://www.followHIM.coFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTER https://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE:00:00 Part 1 - Dr. Carli Anderson01:31 Episode Teaser03:56 Bio05:12 Come, Follow Me Manual06:58 Every word matters and word play09:29 Hebrew acrostic poetry10:14 Cultural weight of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar13:09 Reframing Sarah17:29 Sarah in Egypt20:02 Story repeats21:35 Sarah seen as royalty23:11 Sarah makes a decision27:51 The position of trusted servants30:28 A real tragedy, it seems33:51 What Hagar knows38:36 Not knowing what is on the next page39:35 Ancient family lines defined42:03 Three transformative stories43:39 A sister's similar experience with the Lord46:09 Hugh B.

Synopsis: Why is the sexism at the heart of Trumpism taken so lightly?This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: Donald Trump has a long record of demeaning and berating women. He's also linked to Jeffrey Epstein and his name appears literally thousands of times in relation to what is arguably the biggest, sickest sex abuse scandal ever. So why is the sexism at the heart of Trumpism taken so lightly? In this episode, we look at how sexism functions in today's fascist resurgence with experts Nina Burleigh, Rev. Naomi Washington-Leapheart and Annie Wilkinson. Burleigh is a journalist, best-selling author, documentary producer, and publisher of “American Freakshow” on Substack. Rev. Washington-Leapheart is a minister, professor, and the first-ever Strategic Partnerships Director at Political Research Associates (PRA), a social justice research and strategy center founded in 1981 by the feminist political scientist Jean Hardisty. In 2025 PRA dedicated an entire issue of their journal to the relationship between gender and authoritarianism, with a lead essay written by Wilkinson. Hear what our guests are taking away from the Epstein story, why authoritarians are afraid of feminism, and how women's leadership poses such a threat to fascists. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on impunity in our times.“It's not just about a sex case. It's not just about the mistreatment of women, I'm sorry to say, because that's a big part of it. It's the underpinning of how Epstein maybe was operating. It's really about influence, foreign affairs, and the way the last 20 years of American foreign policy has played out.” - Nina Burleigh“The most unprotected women in the United States throughout our history have been Black women . . . It's sort of okay for a MAGA influencer to say that Black women have brains that process more slowly than any, and nobody challenges that.” - Rev.

AI just changed the rules again, and graphic designers are acting like nothing happened. Meanwhile the biggest AI leaders on the planet are warning everyone that the future showed up early. Most designers still think they have time. They don't.If you feel confident about your design career, good. Because a new question is coming for every designer. A question that exposes who actually thinks and who just pushes pixels. A question that decides who clients trust and who they quietly replace.And here's the scary part. Most designers still can't answer it.In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we dig into how AI is reshaping graphic design jobs, hiring, and creative roles. This is the question that will define your design career and separate real experts from template jockeys.You'll discover:• Why designers keep confusing speed with value • The moment AI turns your portfolio into background noise • The reason clients will start testing you in ways you never trained forIf you care about your future in graphic design, pay attention. This isn't about AI taking your job. It's about whether you can prove you deserve to keep it.Does this sound like you? If not, what feels off?Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

My guest this week is Don Leon Schuuring- owner and illustrator behind Dedonleon Designs, a creative studio based in the Netherlands. The main focus of his studio is Illustration and Graphic Design. From t-shirt design to full brand identity and even some minimal animation. I met Don on Instagram and have worked with him on a bunch of Deli Fresh Threads T-shirt designs the past few years.

EP 160: LinkedIn Just Got Much More Important Brand Design Masters Podcast with Philip VanDusenLinkedIn just became one of the most powerful platforms for personal branding, client acquisition, and career growth. In this episode, I break down why AI search, content longevity, and platform dynamics are dramatically increasing LinkedIn's importance for professionals and B2B businesses.AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity are reshaping discovery. LinkedIn is now one of the most cited sources in large language model answers, especially for verifiable human expertise. That means your LinkedIn content can surface in AI results long after you post it.We also look at:• Why LinkedIn content is shifting from short-lived posts to long-tail visibility • The massive imbalance between content creators and consumers on LinkedIn • Why business intent and low contact friction make LinkedIn uniquely powerful • The mindset shift from posting to positioning • What formats are working now: carousels, 30–60 second video, and in-depth thought leadershipIf you want to increase visibility, establish authority, attract better clients, or future-proof your career in an AI-driven world, LinkedIn should be central to your strategy.This episode will help you understand why.____________________________________WEBSITEhttps://www.philipvandusen.comBONFIRE: Mastermind Community for Creative Proshttps://philipvandusen.com/bonfireBRAND•MUSE NEWSLETTER https://www.philipvandusen.com/museCREATIVE PROFESSIONAL COACHINGhttps://philipvandusen.com/oneononeYOUTUBEhttps://www.youtube.com/philipvandusenBRAND DESIGN MASTERS PODCAST https://podcast.branddesignmasters.com/subscribeBRAND STRATEGY 101 COURSEhttps://philipvandusen.com/bs101LINKEDINhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/philipvandusen/THREADShttps://www.threads.net/@philipvandusen FACEBOOKhttps://www.facebook.com/philipvandusen.agency/____________________________________AFFILIATE PARTNERS:BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP: Adobe Training with Daniel Scotthttps://www.byol.me/philip GO HIGHLEVEL: All-in-One CRMhttps://www.gohighlevel.com/philipvandusenTUBEBUDDY: The best YouTube pluginhttps://www.tubebuddy.com/philipvandusen____________________________Philip VanDusen is a branding consultant based in New York.

Synopsis: As the federal government's grip on power tightens, a growing movement is harnessing the power of local governments to resist authoritarianism and protect constitutional freedoms.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: There are countless strategies for resisting authoritarianism — many of which we've discussed on this program. This time, we're looking at ways to stop the MAGA Right using the power of cities and states. What's possible when people take federalism seriously and partner with state officials to protect their constitutional freedoms — and elections — from being violated by the federal government? Our guests are organizers and strategists with experience and plans for outmaneuvering MAGA at the state and municipal level. Christopher Armitage is a U.S. Air Force veteran, former law enforcement officer, writer, and founder of “The Existentialist Republic” on Substack. He is the author of a handbook on “Oppositional Federalism”. Sumathy Kumar is the Executive Director of Housing Justice for All and the New York State Tenant Bloc. She was the former Co-Chair of the NYC Democratic Socialists of America and under her leadership, NYC-DSA elected six socialist legislators to the New York State Legislature, including mayor Zohran Mamdani. From withholding federal revenue to building social housing, hear the creative ways people and local governments can turn up the heat. All that, plus a commentary from Laura.“We need to take power away from the Trump administration and from the GOP. That means taking that power and putting it locally . . . Being able to provide a good quality of life in an affordable environment for your residents is soft succession.”“Tenants are half the state in New York, they're 70% of the city . . . What I tell people is that you're not by yourself, you're with millions of other people who want this. It is scary to resist what's happening, especially when we see what ICE is doing, what the federal government is doing to people who stand up. But they are doing that because they are feeling threatened by the resistance . . .” - Sumathy KumarGuests:• Christopher Armitage: Journalist & Policy Strategist; Substack, The Existentialist Republic; Author, Oppositional Federalism• Sumathy Kumar: Executive Director, Housing Justice for All & NY State Tenant Bloc Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Synopsis: An AI revolution is underway, but so is the resistance.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: An AI revolution is underway, but so is the resistance. People across the country are feeling the strain of the huge energy-sucking data processing centers that AI requires, and telling their elected officials to slow down or stop new big tech projects for firms like OpenAI, Amazon, Google, Facebook and Microsoft. Data from a 2025 Pew study shows that only 17 percent of Americans think AI will have a positive impact over the next 20 years. But it's a David vs. Goliath battle. Today's guests say AI expansion is not a red or blue issue; it's about who gets to decide how human and natural resources are distributed, who controls the technology, and who stands to benefit. Faiz Shakir is the Founder and Executive Director of the labor-focused news platform More Perfect Union, and serves as a political advisor for Senator Bernie Sanders. John Cassidy, staff writer at the New Yorker, is the author of the recent book, “Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI”, in which he draws our attention back to the Luddites, the 18th century workers whose revolt deserves our closer attention. Plus, our correspondent's coverage of a shocking scene at a public comment meeting in Wisconsin when a local woman was arrested and dragged away. If AI is the new face of capitalism, what is the new alternative?“Luddites, when I was growing up, was a term of abuse. It was people who were sort of antediluvians and didn't understand the modern world. . . . They understood the modern world as it was in their times perfectly, and they saw it was moving against them, and they saw that the political system wasn't coming to their defense.” - John Cassidy“. . . There's more and more pushback, which hopefully portends the possibility that a lot of these communities can strike better deals if they are going to have data centers. There's no reason why we can't be asking that the teachers are well paid, that the electricity rates don't go up, that we have decent affordable housing in those communities. That is all possible because we're playing with incredible amounts of dollars and deep-pocketed people . . . ” - Faiz ShakirGuests:• John Cassidy: Staff Writer, The New Yorker; Author, Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI• Faiz Shakir: Founder & Executive Director, More Perfect Union; Political Advisor & Former Campaign Manager, Senator Bernie Sanders Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

How to Get More Clients Without Working Harder with Philip VanDusenBrand Design Masters Podcast – EP 158BONFIRE https://philipvandusen.com/bonfireTUBEBUDDY (affiliate link) https://tubebuddy.com/philipvandusenGetting more clients doesn't have to mean working longer hours, posting nonstop on social media, or chasing cold leads that go nowhere. In this episode, Philip VanDusen breaks down how creative professionals can grow their client base without burning out by widening their offer, strengthening their network, and positioning themselves as strategic partners instead of execution-only vendors. You'll learn where clients actually come from for freelancers, consultants, and small creative agencies, and why referrals and partnerships consistently outperform ads and content marketing combined. Philip explains the real math behind client funnels and why a narrow service offering and a shallow network will always limit your growth, no matter how talented you are.This episode introduces the concept of “Design Plus”, a smarter way to expand your value without learning every new skill yourself. By building strategic partnerships and leveraging the expertise and networks of others, you can dramatically increase the number of opportunities available to you while doing less hands-on work.Philip also shares why networking feels so hard for many creative professionals, and how to make it more natural, human, and effective. He explains the difference between casual connections and a meaningful network that actually generates work, and why mastermind communities can accelerate growth faster than almost any other strategy.If you're a designer, creative director, freelancer, or agency owner who feels stuck on a client acquisition treadmill, this episode will help you rethink how you grow your business and reclaim your time.In this episode, you'll learn:• The three places all clients come from and which one matters most• Why widening your offer creates more opportunities without more effort• What “Design Plus” really means and how to apply it• How strategic partnerships multiply your reach and credibility• Why meaningful networks outperform social media followers• How masterminds accelerate learning, confidence, and client growthLearn more about the Bonfire mastermind community at:https://philipvandusen.com/bonfireIf this episode helped you rethink how you attract clients, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another creative pro who's ready to grow smarter, not harder.

They understood the modern world as it was in their times perfectly, and they saw it was moving against them, and they saw that the political system wasn't coming to their defense.” - John Cassidy“. . . There's more and more pushback, which hopefully portends the possibility that a lot of these communities can strike better deals if they are going to have data centers. There's no reason why we can't be asking that the teachers are well paid, that the electricity rates don't go up, that we have decent affordable housing in those communities. That is all possible because we're playing with incredible amounts of dollars and deep-pocketed people . . . ” - Faiz ShakirGuests:• John Cassidy: Staff Writer, The New Yorker; Author, Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI• Faiz Shakir: Founder & Executive Director, More Perfect Union; Political Advisor & Former Campaign Manager, Senator Bernie Sanders Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Description: We're bringing you back to an episode from early 2024, co-hosted by Laura Flanders and Scot Nakagawa, because the forces they examined then are not behind us. They are very much with us now.Political violence in the United States didn't peak on January 6th. It metastasized. From threats against election workers and school board members, to attacks fueled by conspiracy, grievance, and organized extremism, the impact of violent political action continues to ripple through our communities — shaping who feels safe, who participates, and whose voices are pushed out of public life.In this conversation, Laura and Scot convene organizers, researchers, and frontline leaders to define what political violence really is — not just spectacular acts, but sustained intimidation — and to ask how democracy survives when fear becomes a political tool.You'll hear from guests who have lived this reality, studied it, and resisted it — voices reminding us that while violence is meant to isolate and silence, community remains one of the strongest counterforces we have.As the current political climate continues to normalize threats and reward extremism, this episode feels less like history — and more like a guidepost. “As a child of a [Black] Panther, I saw inspiration in every action. Even when I saw my mother's friends being jailed for long periods of time or even killed by police terror . . . A lot of those folks went on to continue fighting against terror of the state and building community. I wanted to be a part of that . . .” - Sala Cyril“Violence has greatly limited our ability to function as an inclusive, robust, multiracial democracy that in fact, we must deal with it . . . We need to believe we can win, and we need to think about who it is that we need on our side . . .” - Scot Nakagawa“I can report anecdotally through different interactions with conservatives that they are experiencing political violence. I've been in attendance with secretaries of state, former Lieutenant governors. They all have stories of themselves or their families being on the receiving end of political violence . . .” - Maria J. StephanGuests:• Sala Cyril: Interim Executive Director, Vision Change Win; Organizer, Malcolm X Grassroots Movement, NYC• Hardy Merriman: Author, Harnessing Our Power to End (HOPE) Political Violence; Expert, Democracy Movements• Scot Nakagawa (Co-host): Executive Director, 22nd Century Initiative & 22nd Century Conference• Maria J.
