Podcasts about groundings

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Sep 10, 2020 In this episode, Breht sits down with historian Johanna Fernández, author of The Young Lords: A Radical History, to explore one of the most militant and visionary revolutionary groups of the 20th century. We trace the origins of the Young Lords from street gang to revolutionary cadre, their Marxist-Leninist politics, their grassroots organizing in poor Puerto Rican and Black neighborhoods, and their fierce fight against racism, colonialism, police violence, and capitalism itself. Dr. Fernández brings deep archival research and firsthand insight into how this organization fused theory and practice, turning the politics of the lumpen and working class into revolutionary power. This is a history not just to remember—but to learn from and build upon.

Boeing stock tumbles after Friday night's mid-air incident on an Alaska Air jet. “Fast Money” has the latest developments. And, why Evercore ISI thinks the market is particularly vulnerable this earnings season - which kicks off Friday. Fast Money Disclaimer

On today's podcast: 1) US air-safety officials retrieved the fuselage panel that blew off during an Alaska Airlines flight on Jan. 5, as authorities begin piecing together evidence to learn what led to the sudden decompression on the almost-new Boeing Co. 737 Max 9 aircraft. 2) US congressional leaders announced a deal on a top-line spending level for the current fiscal year, lessening the chances of a partial government shutdown on Jan. 20. 3) The Pentagon's failure to notify President Joe Biden that his defense secretary had been hospitalized for four days was the result of a series of errors, including confusion over Lloyd Austin's wishes and his chief of staff falling ill, people familiar with the matter said. 4) United Launch Alliance's long-awaited Vulcan rocket lifted off on Monday, heralding a new era for the longtime Pentagon contractor fighting to expand market share against Elon Musk's SpaceX. Full Transcript: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. We begin with the latest developments involving Boeing after disaster was narrowly averted on an Alaska Airlines flight on Friday. Boring stock right now is down more than eight percent, and we get more from Bloomberg's John Tucker, John and Nathan. The airlines around the globe have been grounding Boeing seven thirty seven Max nine half to a fuselage section on a brand new Alaska Airlines jet blew out during a flight on Friday. This is a door panel that can be sealed or used for access, depending on the configuration. Only luck prevented a more disastrous outcome. The National Transportation Safety Board cheer Jennifer Homandi says Alaska Airlines pilots did report pressurization warning lights on three earlier flights of the two month old plane in question. The auto pressurization fail light that did illuminate in three previous flights, one on December seventh, one on January third, and one on January fourth. A schoolteacher in Portland found the missing fuselage door plug in his backyard. The door plug that blew out was next to seats twenty six A and twenty six P, and just by chance, there was nobody sitting there. The plane did carry one hundred and seventy one passengers, a valuable data usually collected by the so called black box that was a raised Boeing suppliers. Spirit Aerosystems Holdings was the company that installed the planel on the nearly new jet. John Tucker Bloomberg Radio, all right, John, thank you well be now when to turn to the latest developments in the Middle East. Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln is in the region for a fourth time since the Israeli Hamas war broke out. Lincoln is warning the war could quote easily become a wider conflict. He spoke during a news conference in Doha. This is a conflict that could easily a tastasize, causing even more insecurity, more suffering and Secretary of State blank And met with Jordan's Kingdomdullah on Sunday, a day after stops in Turkey and Greece. Well back here in the US here, and the risk of a government shutdown on January twentieth has eased somewhat with word of a deal on spending caps. Bloomberg's Amy Morris has details from Washington. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Mike Johnson negotiated the bipartisan deal, which caps spending at one point five to nine trillion dollars. Republicans have agreed to a set of budget moves to spare immediate cuts to domestic agency budgets. The deal does not include an agreement to block all conservative policy writers, so there still may be debates over defunding investigations into former President Trump, and while that might cause an impass later, for now, lawmakers have the framework they need to avoid a government shut down this month. The next deadline is February second. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio, all right, Amy, thank you now. The latest on the health of Lloyd Austin. Bloomberg News has learned the Pentagon's failure to notify prison and in bid and that his Defense secretary had been hospitalized for four days, was the result of a series of errors. They include confusion over Austin's wishes and his chief of staff, Falling Hill from a Republican Congressoman list. Cheney is looking for answers I think they've got some very serious explaining to do. I think that there's a real difference between public transparency and you know, alerting the commander in chief to the fact that Secretary of Defense is in the hospital. Apparently the deputy Secretary was on vacation in Puerto Rico. I think it's inexplicable. We need to know more about exactly what happened there. But that's not the way the Pentagon ought to be conducting business. And that's former Congressome and liszt Cheney. On Saturday, Secretary Austin apologized for failing to inform the public for days, while saying he's on the mend and expects to return to the Pentagon soon. Let's turn to Wall Street now, Karen Bank earnings and the possible Bitcoin ETF will be front and center this week. More from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. Friday, we hear from JP Morgan, Chase, City Group, Bank of America, Anne Wells Fargo. Early earnings reports come amid questions about the path of inflation and FED interest rate POTLESE. Cameron Dawson is chief investment officer at New Edge Wealth. The thing that's the biggest challenge for US for earning sestaments in twenty four is the expectation that topline growth will re accelerate in a year where nominal growth because of inflation is expected to decelerate. Also this week, the Securities and Exchange Commission will decide whether to approve an exchange traded fund tied directly to the world's largest cryptocurrency in New York, Charlie Bloomberg Radio, All right, Charlie. Thanks. In company news, Bloomberg News has learned MRK is in advanced talks to acquire cancer drugmaker Harpoon Therapeutics. The price tag about seven hundred million dollars. San Francisco based Harpoon is developing drugs that harness the body's immune system to fight cancer. Shares of Harpoon are up about one hundred percent well. Also, while following Apple Care, which has fallen almost six percent to kick off the new year, Jeffries says Apple's iPhone sales slump in China is deepening and the companies likely to see volumes decline further this year. Apple saw a double digit falled volumes in December. Jeffries forecast a similar decline for twenty twenty four. Checking shares of Apple right now they are a little changed to the downside. And on the economic front, Nathan, inflation will be the focus for our investors. Bloomberg's Any del Judaice has more the Labor Department issues the Consumer Price Index Thursday and the Producer Price Index Friday, both covered December. Rising gasoline prices could have an impact on the household data, says Bloomberg Economics. Looking further out, Bloomberg economics 's US inflation continuing to run above the federal reserves two percent target this year, even with all the raid hikes. Vinny del Judice, Bloomberg Radio, Nathan, thank you. It's time for a look at some of the other stories making news around the world, and for that we're joined by Bloomberg's Amy Morris, Sammy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. Ukraine suffered a second large scale Russian missile barrage this year as temperatures dropped below freezing in the latest escalation of aerial attacks. Now, this barrage killed one woman and left at least thirty more people wounded. After months of relatively few air strikes, Russia is ramping up bombardment just before the new year, firing hundreds of missiles at cities across Ukraine, including the capital. Meanwhile, Ukraine has been targeting bases and occupied Crimea, with the Air Force saying over the weekend that it destroyed our Russian command post there. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is set to visit Charleston, South Carolina, today, including a stop at Mother Emmanuel Ame Church, where back in twenty fifteen, nine church goers were shot and killed by a self proclaimed white supremacist. Charlotte City Councilman Malcolm Graham is the brother of one of those victims. Cynthia Graham heard and tells ABC News that when the President visits local black history points of interest, he's sending us strong message of visiting sites like the new Historic African American Museum, he makes a point that history matters, that black history matters. It just not just occurs in the month of February, that black history is also American history. Biden, meanwhile working to shore up support among black voters and Nicki Haley's home state as the Republican governor of former governor of South Carolina, is rising in the polls. Texas Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez reflected on the third anniversary of the January sixth attack on the Capitol and stands by his labeling of the mob as domestic terrorists, refusing to accept former President trump statements made on the writers describing them as heroes and hostages. They're certainly not heroes. You know. They broke the law, and we have to obey our laws. We are a nation of laws, and they have to obey the laws. Representative Gonzales tells ABC's This Week he does not support Donald Trump's proposed plan to pardon those convicted for their actions that day. Hospitals across the country are telling people mask up flu and COVID nineteen cases are once again on the rise. The viruses have actually been on the incline for the past few weeks. Health officials are predicting infections will increase even more throughout this month. Global news twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News. Now. I'm Amy Morris and this is Bloomberg Karen Hurry, Amy, thank you. We do bring you news throughout the day here on Bloomberg Radio. But now you can get the latest news on demand, and that means whenever you want it. Subscribe to Bloomberg News Now to get the latest headlines at the click of a button. Get informed on your schedule. You can listen and subscribe to Bloomberg News Now on the Bloomberg Business app, Bloomberg dot Com plus Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update, here's John stash Hour John Karen. The NFL regular season is over. The playoffs begin on Saturday with a late afternoon game between the Cleveland Browns and the Houston Texans. A team that won only eleven games over the previous three seasons won ten this year, and the Texans won the AFC South when Jacksonville lost its game yesterday at Tennessee twenty eight to twenty. Saturday night, it'll be Miami at Kansas City. The Dolphins blew a lead in the AFC East and last night's lost to Buffalo twenty one to fourteen cost the Dolphins the AFC East, so they're a wildcard and they'll take on the Chiefs Sunday at one Eastern Pittsburgh in Buffalo. Then it's Green Bay at Dallas. The Packers gaining a wildcard spot with a seventeen to nine win over Chicago. The Cowboys won the NFC East. They blew out Washington yesterday thirty eight to ten. Sunday night, it'll be the Rams in Detroit, so Matthew Stafford will face his former team in the wildcard weekend will conclude next Monday night. Slumping Philadelphia at Tampa Bay, Eagles have been a train wreck down the stretch of the season, losing five to the last six. They were beaten by the Giants yesterday twenty seven to ten. The Bucks won the NFC South with a nine to nothing win over Carolina Atlanta Falcons of fired coach Arthur Smith. Will the Patriots part ways with Bill Belichick after twenty five years as coach there? We should find out soon. Michigan and Washington played tonight in the Houston for the National Championship, both teams fourteen and er. Although the Huskies haven't won a game by more than ten points since September, the Wolverines are the famous from coast to coast, from New York to San Francisco, Boston to Washington, DC, nationwide on Syrias Exam. The Bloomberg Business app in Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. Airlines around the world are starting to ground their Boeing seven thirty seven Max nine jets after part of the fuselage blew out on a brand new model operated by Alaska Airlines last Friday. It is another blow to Boeing's turnaround efforts after two deadly seven thirty seven Max crashes nearly five years ago. From More, we were joined by Bloomberg News. Aviations are Anthony Palazzo. Anthony, what more do we know about why this mishap happened and where the investigation stands? Hi Nathan, thanks for having me. Yeah, So, we had two developments late late yesterday. One is that the investigators have found the door panel that fell out of the plane. This is a key piece of evidence and they're going to be looking very closely at the condition of that panel to understand why it popped out of the fuselage section. The panel was found in the backyard of a Portland area school teacher. So what could that panel tell us about how this happened? Well, well, what they've what they've said so far is that they've looked at they've looked at the tabs that hold that panel in from the interier of the plane, which was largely undamaged, and that they didn't find a whole lot of They didn't find, you know, a problem there. So they're gonna so they're going to need to keep going to understand exactly how this came off. Those those panels are screwed in with four bolts. They're not in use, although they can be opened from the outside of the plane. Those are essentially openings that are built for an emergency door. But a lot of the a lot of the airlines that use this aircraft, it's a stretched Boeing seven point thirty seven Max Jet, a lot of the airlines don't use those exit doors because they're not needed for the seat configurations that they need. So this is putting more scrutiny on the manufacturing process at Boeing, particularly around the seven thirty seven Max. Is there something particular about the Max nine that could have caused a problem like this as opposed to the seven thirty seven Maxes that were involved in those crashes that we all remember just a few years ago. Yes, well, the well, the the Max nine is a stretched version of the of the core Boeing Max plane, which is called the Max eight. So it's a it's a bit longer, and it can seat more people. But because it can seat more people in its in its most densely packed configurations, it requires more additional safety exits. So a lot of a lot of the low cost carriers that would use that plane would would want to put in more seats and therefore more more emergency exits most carriers. So now the Max eight does not have that that kind of a kind of configuration, doesn't have those exits and doesn't need them. The way that Boeing has done it is that they put in the essentially modular cutouts into the frame so they can make all the fuselages the same, and then when they finish the aircraft they can decide, you know, with the customer whether or not to install those doors or to install plugs in those holes. So now that's the difference. Yeah, right, And now we have a couple of hundred of these seven thirty seven Max nines getting taken out of service, these low cost carriers including Alaska and United grounding these jets. How big a blow potentially could this be for Boeing When it's been trying to put a turnaround plan into place. Well, it's a real setback, you know. The extent to how deep or how long term it ends up being that's all yet to be determined. But certainly investors are selling down the stock. This morning we sell that shares go down about eight point three percent in pre market trading. Their supplier is Spirit Aero Systems, that is a former Boeing unit that makes the fuselage and they they're down about sixteen percent. I think there's been there's been a lot of there's been a lot of speculation about the relationship between Boeing and Spirit and how wise it was to separate the two companies. You know, Spirit's been responsible for a couple of the real supplier glitches that have held that production at Boeing, and they've been weakened financially. Boeing had to reduce some contracts with Spirit, they had to infuse some money into it. So this may be something that that Boeing recon suitors in the longer term. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. Look for us on your podcast feed. At six am Eastern each morning on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. You can also listen live each morning starting at five am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty in San Francisco. Our flagship New York station is also available on your Amazon Alexa devices. Just say Alexa Play Bloomberg eleven thirty plus. Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app, seriusxmb iHeartRadio app, and on Bloomberg dot Com. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Join us again tomorrow morning for all the news you need to start your day right here on Bloomberg DaybreakSee

Her photography, film, and installation works look at issues related to time, space, land, and movement, offering interventions rooted in a decolonial framework. My practice is deeply informed by the knowledge emerging from the grassroots movements for justice around me, both in Palestine and across Turtle Island.

In this episode, poet and activist Too Black joins to discuss the incredible story of the Pendleton 2. We dive into the details of the 1985 uprising at the Pendleton Correctional Facility and explore the factors that led to this critical event: racial tensions and a violent prison environment created by guards who were part of a KKK splinter group, the "Sons of Light," pushed John 'Balagoon' Cole and Christopher 'Naeem' Trotter to take a courageous stand against racist prison abuse.Too Black gives us a play-by-play of the day's events, highlighting the importance of unity among prisoners in making the rebellion, and we learn how Cole and Trotter managed to bring everyone together and prevent the situation from escalating into something much worse. We also discuss their decision to call Black radio stations and newspapers for help, warning them that their lives were in danger if they didn't intervene; examine the 14 demands  they issued which were eventually met; and why this event became known as "Indiana's Attica." Despite their heroic actions to save a Black man's life from racist prison guards, both Cole and Trotter remain incarcerated to this day. As we wrap up our conversation, we share resources for listeners who want to learn more about the Pendleton 2 and get involved in supporting their cause. Please visit Pendleton2.com to learn more, watch the new documentary, and get involved. Please consider supporting the podcast on Patreon at patreon.com/halfatlanta.

In a recent book on the ongoing relevance of Walter Rodney's work, Karim F. Hirji notes that, “as with scores of progressive intellectuals and activists of the past, the prevailing ideology functions to relegate Rodney into the deepest, almost unreachable, ravines of memory. A person who was widely known is now a nonentity, a stranger to the youth in Africa and the Caribbean” and the U.S. Rodney's theoretical and practical contributions to the socialist movement warrant an ongoing engagement with his life story and major texts. Rodney's most recent, posthumously-published text, The Russian Revolution: A View from the Third World, offers an important perspective on the time period in which it was written and the internal position of the author. Rodney's family worked with Robin Kelley in taking Walter's extensive lecture notes on the Russian revolutionary era and forming them into a complete manuscript. This essay, which complements our new study guide on The Russian Revolution, offers a brief overview of Rodney's background historical context. Highlighting aspects of Rodney's individual life demonstrates that his commitments were not just the result of his own individual experiences and conclusions, but were part of and emerged from the revolutionary crisis ripping through the world at the time. To better comprehend A View from the Third World, we turn to Groundings with My Brothers, which Rodney produced as a relatively new professor in Jamaica. In that book, Rodney reflects on the dialectical pedagogy he developed to make his academic labor part of the global movement against capitalist imperialism, which he also called the white power structure.

In this episode of Groundings, host Musa Springer is joined by Atlanta organizer Tunde Osazua as co-host; they sit down with local organizer and lawyer Kamau Franklin to discuss the ongoing struggle surrounding the development of Cop City in Atlanta. Kamau provides insightful analysis on the background and larger political context of Cop City, the response from organizers and residents, and what makes this specific movement so important.We dive into Cop City origins, Kamau explains that the idea of the facility started prior to the 2020 uprisings, but after the uprisings, it was brought forth and rushed to the public. The name "Cop City" was coined by local organizers and residents who saw the development as a form of repression and response to the uprisings. We then look at the many organizing efforts against Cop City, and Kamau emphasizes that the community has been active in opposing the development and has formed various coalitions to mobilize against it. This is the first time that 'domestic terrorism' charges have been used against protesters in this way, and it's also the first time an environmental activist, young Tortuguita, has been killed by polcie in the U.S. We talk about the incredibly damning legal and political implications of all this. Patreon.com/HalfAtlantaCommunity Movement Builders - Stop Cop City Intro audio by Big Twen#StopCopCity Week of Action11Alive audio clipAndre Dickens doesn't like being called a "sellout"Atlanta Mayor Sleeping During Cop City ForumFebruary 4th Statement from Tortuguita's FamilyOn James Baldwin and the Atlanta Child MurdersPigs Have Higher Rates of Domestic Violence Than Other Professions

Follow Laraine on Twitter and Instagram. Learn more about The Passionistas Project. FULL TRANSCRIPT: Passionistas: The night that Saturday Night Live premiered in 1975, we slipped downstairs after our parents went to bed to watch the show with our older siblings. Our lives were changed forever. Before that moment, the comedians and actors we saw on TV were our parents contemporaries. But when the Not Ready for Primetime Players blasted through our set, we saw our sisters on the screen. At just 24 Laraine Newman was part of a renegade group breaking down doors for the next generation. Laraine hit the SNL stage with impressive credits already on her resume. She had studied mine with Marcel Marceau in Paris, was a founding member of the legendary Los Angeles improv troupe, the Groundlings and honed her skills developing original characters. SNL launched Laraine into rockstar status. But it's only one of her many accomplishments in her multi-decade career. She's appeared on hit television shows like St. Elsewhere and Friends, and worked in film with legendary directors like Guillermo del Toro. Laraine is on the board of San Francisco Sketch Fest, regularly appears in the long running award-winning Broadway show, Celebrity Autobiography and has written for Esquire, the Believer and McSweeneys. And she's one of the most prolific voice over actors in the business, lending her talents to animated classics, including Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc., Despicable Me and Shrek. As she says in her memoir, May You Live in Interesting Times, she bore witness to and participated in many significant cultural moments in the country. And that's pretty cool. And through it all, she persisted. So it is our distinct honor to award the Passionist to Persist Icon Award to Laraine Newman. Laraine: Thank you so much to the Passionist Project for this award. It's a privilege to be able to follow your passions in life, in my case, all things comedy, and to ultimately make a living at it. I don't take that lightly. The field I work mostly in now, animation voiceover, is very egalitarian because nobody can see you. You're anonymous. They just know what you can do with your voice. What I've learned is that in a business like mine, you have to be good enough at what you do as to be undeniable, and that takes courage in the face of so much failure and rejection. Well, courage and what the hell else am I gonna do? I don't have any hobbies. I continue to try and improve my skills to learn new things and see what other people are doing, New voices, points of view and style, that inspires me so much. Although I've worked hard, I suspect I've had less obstacles than the other people that are championed by this wonderful organization, the marginalized to specific. As the mother of two LGBTQ children, I see progress. The world is more open to them than it might have been say 20 years ago, but we have a long way to go and thankfully there are entities like the Passionistas Project that are the uplifting gatekeepers, if you will. Again, thank you so much. Passionistas: What are you most passionate about? Laraine: Well, I'm passionate about, I guess justice, in the first place. I'm passionate about my kids. I'm passionate about my interests, which range from cooking to comedy. So I guess you could say that's a distillation of some of the things I'm passionate about. Passionistas: You were one of the founding members of the Groundlings with your sister Tracy. So what was the atmosphere like for women in improv at the time? Laraine: Well, we had a great director, Gary Austin, and he was, uh, you know, it was a meritocracy for sure. Whoever had something funny, that's what went up. And, um, I think that the world of comedy at that point was just at a turning point. You know, the Comedy Store had just opened, uh, there were lots of clubs along Beverly Boulevard. There were drag clubs, there was Waylon Flowers and Madam. There was a great, uh, Australian comedian named Daphne Davis, who was also an impressionist. And, um, there was a, a openly gay comic at the Comedy Store named Falstaff Wilde. So I think, you know, even though there is a polemic about women in comedy back then, uh, I never experienced that. Passionistas: So you went on to be part of the original cast of the Not Ready for Primetime Players on Saturday Night Live. So talk a little bit about what it felt like to be involved in creating this iconic show, and if you ever even imagined the groundwork you were laying or the doors you were opening? Laraine: Well, it was impossible to have that kind of perspective. Uh, I just knew that all of us represented a different kind of style and tone from the disparate parts that we came from. Chicago, you know, um, Toronto, New York, um, California. And it was just, it was a great kind of stew of a whole new generation of people that represented something that you'd never seen on TV before. We, you know, were so kind of, you know, the redheaded stepchild for NBC, wanting to just slam something into that time slot, you know, because Johnny Carson didn't want the reruns on Saturdays. So, um, we never even imagined anybody was watching us, but it was thrilling to be able to say, Hey. I wanna, uh, write a sketch about a girl who's from the valley as a stewardist. Well, I'd have done that in the Groundings, but, you know, uh, can I do that? Yes, you can. What? Great. You know, so it was that kind of thing. Passionistas: Do you feel like you and Gilda and Jane supported each other, leaned on each other back then? And what kind of ways did you do. Laraine: Because we all came from an improv background, that's a very cooperative art form. So, um, naturally we supported one another. You know, uh, the high stakes competition we weren't really aware of until later. But we all knew that none of us could do what the other one could do. So it wasn't a matter of competing with each other. We were really competing with ourselves. Passionistas: You were one of the queens of creating characters. So what's that process for you? Laraine: The process of creating characters is, uh, my God, usually in the beginning for people, it's an amalgam of the people they grew up with, the things that they noticed. And I was such a myna bird. I mean, I just, uh, I was fascinated by dialects and there were just characters all around me that I later exemplified. Passionistas: What's the power of comedy? Laraine: It offers so many things. It offers, uh, the ability to frame things in a way that, uh, tells the truth without being necessarily threatening. I think George Carlin's a really, a good example of that because he distilled things and he arranged the anatomy of things like hypocrisy and corporate greed and, and, you know, organized religion. He arranged it in such a way that people could see, you know, the uh, the flaw and the argument. And um, so I think if anything, you know, hopefully it furthers, uh, the dialogue on things. Passionistas: You have two incredibly talented children, Spike and Hannah Einbinder. What's your dream for their future? Laraine: They're already pretty much self-supporting, which, you know, it's like I've done my job as a parent, you know, uh, I'm so proud of them for that. They have a great work ethic, so it's not like something that I have to worry about them having they already have it. Um, I hope that they see a world that is a lot better than the one that is around right now. Passionistas: What advice do you give to them? Laraine: Like they would take my advice. I've learned as a parent that, you know, unless it's solicited, it's perceived as criticism. So if they seek my advice, then, you know, always it's like, uh, continue to learn. That's all I can say. Passionistas: Is there a moment in your journey of following your passions that you think would be most inspiring to people? Laraine: The moment I decided to, uh, pursue voiceover, even though it was really hard world to break into. I just knew that I, I figured out that that was what I was perfectly suited to do. I wasn't as invested in being an actor or being on camera. I loved the idea of working and acting with my voice, and I. I auditioned for shows for two years and I, I got roles, but I didn't get series regular roles. And then I studied with a guy named Charlie Adler and Chris Zimmerman. And you know, I think the willingness to continue to learn and recognize that there are certain aspects of a technique that you might need help with, being willing to do that is so important. Being willing to continue to learn is everything. Passionistas: What does the phrase Power of Passionistas mean to you? Laraine: Passion drives everything we do. The wish to, uh, achieve, the wish to evolve. Um, so, you know, I think helping others to recognize the process of achievement and the struggle of achievement is a really great endeavor.

Dr. Horne's books ‘The Apocalypse of Settler Colonialism' and ‘The Dawning of the Apocalypse' are essential readings in understanding the original sins of empire, the worlds that settler colonialism precluded, and the apokalyptic transformation the world is experiencing today. Our conversation moves across subjects of colonial technology and weaponry, Africa's underdevelopment, and how our material conditions within empire are directly tied to the material conditions across the African continent and diaspora.Dr. Horne also candidly reflects on his own writing process, how he's such a prolific and productive writer and activist, and the stakes of doing rigorous work as a peoples historian.

From Claudia Jones and Safiya Bukhari, to Assata Shakur and Dr. Patricia Rodney, the impact of Black women radicals has created monumental shifts in the way we think, organize, and survive.

Armed uprisings across the Caribbean can often be portrayed as spontaneous and isolated events that were largely unsuccessful. In fact, these efforts have informed each other across time and can reshape how we think about imperial domination in Africa and across the Americas.  The Christmas Rebellion, sometimes called the Baptist Uprising, is the largest rebellion in Jamaica's history, and it reveals the importance of continued resistance and pushes us to rethink what we call ‘successful' revolts by the enslaved. Writer and organizer Q. Anthony Omene joins us to discuss this and much more, in the first episode of Groundings season 4. You will also hear archival audio from Walter Rodney, which can be found in full here.Hosts:DarienDevSupport:Patreon.com/Halfatlanta

As events in Palestine continue to develop we're bringing you this special episode in collaboration with the Groundings podcast and friend-of-the-site Devyn Springer. Devyn is a cultural worker, community organizer, and independent researcher. They are a member of the Walter Rodney Foundation, and host of the Groundings podcast. They've written and worked with several media outlets, including Mondoweiss, and produced documentaries such Parchman Prison: Pain & Protest. Today, Devyn and their co-host speak to Mohammed El-Kurd. Mohammed is a poet, writer, and activist from Jerusalem, Palestine. He lives in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood where the Israeli government is trying to forcibly remove his family and other Palestinian families so that Israeli settlers can take over their homes. Protests have been ongoing in Sheikh Jarrah over the last several weeks. Israeli forces escalated the violence by entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound as the holy month of Ramadan came to an end, attacking tens of thousands of Muslim worshippers. Hamas, in Gaza, issued an ultimatum to Israel to withdraw its forces from Al-Aqsa and Sheikh Jarrah or it wide launch rockets into Israeli-held territory. The Israeli government ignored the deadline, and since late last week has carried out massive airstrikes against the civilian population in Gaza. As of this recording on Monday, May 17th, Israel has killed over 200 Palestinians in Gaza, including 61 children, and left over 1400 injured. - - - SUPPORT OUR WORK: Help us continue our critical independent coverage of events in Palestine, Israel, and related U.S. politics.
