Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.What if everything we thought we knew about Caribbean literary history was incomplete? That's the premise of today's captivating conversation with Professor Alison Donnell, whose groundbreaking new book, Lost and Found: An A to Z of Neglected Writers of the Anglophone Caribbean (Papillote Press 2025), challenges the traditional narrative that Caribbean literature primarily emerged in the 1950s through male writers who migrated abroad. Through painstaking research spanning decades, Donnell reveals a far richer literary landscape populated by remarkable women writers, Indo-Caribbean voices, and authors who remained within the Caribbean, crafting work specifically for local audiences.The stories behind these recoveries are as fascinating as the writers themselves. We meet Vera Bell, the first female chief clerk of Jamaica's National Water Commission and prolific poet; Monica Skeet, who balanced a conservative teaching career with radical storytelling; and Edwina Melville, the first woman with a tractor license in Guyana who dedicated herself to representing Amerindian life. These weren't just writers – they were teachers, journalists, civil servants, and community leaders whose literary work formed part of a broader mission to build Caribbean cultural literacy.Whether you're a Caribbean literature enthusiast or simply love stories of historical recovery and justice, this episode will transform how you understand the relationship between literature, identity, and cultural memory. Listen now to discover the writers who helped shape Caribbean consciousness long before we knew their names.Alison Donnell is head of Humanities and Professor of Modern Literatures in English at the University of Bristol. She has published widely in the field of Caribbean literature, with significant contributions to the fields of literary history and culture, recovery research of women authors, and Caribbean literary archives. Her recent works reflect her ongoing commitment to exploring and expanding literary histories, including a special double issue of Caribbean Quarterly on Caribbean Literary Archives. Her latest monograph Creolized Sexualities: Undoing Heteronormativity in the literary imagination of the Anglo-Caribbean was published by Rutgers in 2021.Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts - Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?

Akiba Leisman, President and CEO of Mako Mining (TSX.V:MKO – OTCQX:MAKOF), joins me to review the news release today, on September 30th, announcing that the Company has entered into of a binding term sheet with Sailfish Royalty Corp. to acquire the Mt. Hamilton Gold-Silver Project located in White Pine County, Nevada, USA, through the acquisition of 100% of Mt. Hamilton LLC, the direct owner of the Mt. Hamilton Project, through a series of transactions. Sailfish will acquire MH LLC on an arm's length basis from Mt. Hamilton Holdings LLC, and subsequently transfer the interests to Mako in consideration for a corporate gold stream, and a 2% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty on the Mt. Hamilton Project from Mako. Neither Mako nor Sailfish will issue any equity to complete these transactions.   The Mt. Hamilton Project has all major state and federal permits to allow construction of an open pit, heap leach gold-silver project, and has a current mineral resource estimate with an effective date of September 23, 2025 (the "Mt. Hamilton MRE") that was prepared by James N. Gray, P.Geo., of Advantage Geoservices Ltd., out of Vancouver, British Columbia.   Additionally, we discussed the 2nd layer of mineralization and value proposition of the Mt Hamilton Project, because it also hosts a tungsten/copper/molybdenum target, located below and independent of the gold and silver Mt. Hamilton MRE. This tungsten target has been defined by over 100,000 ft of historical exploration drilling. In a report by the Department of the Interior, dated August 25, 2025, tungsten (W) was named as one of the top 10 critical metals listed by their estimated probability-weighted impact of supply disruptions on the U.S. economy.  There is the potential to seek government funds allocated for the development of critical minerals for this portion of the deposit down the road as another potential opportunity.   We also unpack the anticipated mining to begin in Q4 at the Moss Mine, and what to anticipate for the several months of ramp up of increased production.  Additionally, we delve into the next key steps for permitting and development work at the Eagle Mountain Gold Project in Guyana; set to be in construction in late 2026 and production by H2 of 2027.   This is a longer-format interview where we get into many nuances of operations and coming catalysts in all 4 jurisdictions.       If you have any further questions for Akiba regarding Mako Mining, then please email them into me at  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Mako Mining at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell more shares at any time.   Click here for a summary of the recent news out of Mako Mining.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks: The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/   Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

//The Wire//2300Z September 26, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: MISSING PERSON CASE IN FLORIDA HIGHLIGHTS MEDIA MANIPULATION CONCERNS DURING ACTIVE AMBER ALERTS. COUNTER ICE RIOTS INTENSIFY IN CHICAGO. CRACKDOWN ON SPEECH CONTINUES IN UNITED KINGDOM.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-United Kingdom: The censorship and speech targeting concerns continue to deteriorate as another wave of arrests has emerged among right-wing political commentators. Steve Laws and Pete North have been arrested over the past few days, as PM Starmer continues to state that the U.K. has freedom of speech. Nonetheless, the arrests continue, not just among more visible influencers, but among laypeople as well. Analyst Comment: Hundreds of arrests have been reported all around the U.K. for social media posts, with most of these arrests only coming to light from family members who notice the arrests. This is due to gag orders being placed on the detainees, so that they can't even talk about why they were arrested, or else they will get slapped with higher charges. This is to ensure that the speech crime arrests go largely unnoticed, since public outcry would result if high profile arrests are made. Since the courts are now routinely placing gag orders on people who are being arrested on speech-crime charges, the sheer scale of how many arrests are being made is impossible to know.-HomeFront-Illinois: The situation in Chicago continues to deteriorate as more counter-ICE riots escalate. Various blockade-type actions remain the main vector for rioters to hinder ICE actions, such as at the detention facility in Broadview.Iowa: This afternoon a high-profile ICE raid was carried out, targeting Dr. Ian Andre Roberts. Roberts was the superintendent of the Des Moines Public School System, but he was also a fugitive and illegal immigrant from Guyana who had an active deportation order since May of 2024. After his case was reopened, ICE agents made contact with him today, after which he fled on foot before a K9 unit apprehended him. He was arrested in possession of a firearm, a large knife, and several thousand dollars.Florida: Yesterday evening a high-profile Amber Alert was issued for a hostile abduction of a 17-year-old in Marion County. Caden Speight has been found, but was initially reported missing after what was initially described as a very kinetic kidnapping. The victim's family received a text message that indicated he had been shot and kidnapped by 4x Hispanic males in a light colored van. Local authorities located his abandoned vehicle on Hwy 484 (which had at least one bullet hole in it, according to the initial story), and Speight's phone was also recovered at the scene broken in half.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Something is not quite right with this case, and despite the obvious media hooks to sensationalize this story, nobody really knew what was going on as the details of the search continued to change throughout the day.This morning, investigators stated that the initial details of the incident were determined to be false, and that the current evidence available does not support the abduction story. Investigators stated that he appears to have departed from the initial incident site on a bicycle, possibly with a red and grey tent that was purchased using his credit/debit card at a Walmart in Ocala shortly before the incident. At the time it appeared as though this may have been a runaway situation portrayed as a violent kidnapping.However, as the situation continued to develop, notices from officials changed from an Amber Alert to caution, urging citizens to not make contact with Speight if he was discovered. Shortly after this change in tone, Speight was reported to be found, with a gunshot wound to his leg. However some reports suggest the opposite, and that he was found without any wounds (as in

Thomas Gast Interview Gastvorstellung In der heutigen Folge begrüßt Tom einen außergewöhnlichen Gast: Thomas Gast – ehemaliger Fremdenlegionär, Sicherheitsprofi, Bestseller-Autor und erfolgreicher YouTuber. Thomas‘ Lebensweg führte ihn von der Bundeswehr zur französischen Fremdenlegion, weiter in weltweite Sicherheits-Aufträge und schließlich nach Schweden, wo er heute als Unternehmer, Autor und Outdoor-Experte wirkt. Mit spannenden Geschichten, unverblümt offener Haltung und viel Lebenserfahrung gewährt Thomas tiefe Einblicke in Themen wie Mut, Überleben, Führung und das Streben nach dem eigenen Weg. Im Detail: Im Februar 1985 trat Thomas Gast der Fremdenlegion bei. Nach der Grundausbildung wurde er nach Französisch-Guyana ins Dschungelregiment (3. Fremden Infanterie Regiment) abkommandiert. Mit Hilfe eines deutschen Legionsoffiziers gelang ihm im September 1987 der Sprung ins einzige Fallschirmjägerregiment der Fremdenlegion. Er durchlief alle Mannschaftsdienstgrade, wurde Unteroffizier und schließlich, nach kaum elf Jahren Zugehörigkeit, Zugführer (mil.) und Kompaniefeldwebel. Nach der Legion war Thomas Gast lange Zeit in der Sicherheitsbranche tätig. Der Reihe nach lebte und arbeitete er in ... Saudi-Arabien: als Sicherheitsmitarbeiter.

Inspiration und Überlegungen, warum er sich der Fremdenlegion anschloss – Stichwort: „Ich möchte keinen Allerweltsmenschen-Lebensweg“. Ehrliche Einblicke in Momente der Reue (z.B. beim Marsch mit 50 kg Gepäck durch den Dschungel), aber auch warum bereichernde Erlebnisse meist überwiegten. Erfahrungen im Dschungelregiment in Französisch Guiana sowie im Fallschirmjägerregiment der Legion.

Die Bedeutung von Ausbildung, Teamarbeit und Anpassungsfähigkeit für das Überleben in Einsätzen. Vergleich der Gefahren in Militär, Polizei und Sicherheitsdiensten.

Vom Soldaten zum Buchautor und Content Creator Über ein Dutzend Bücher, v.a. zu Survival, Führung, Männlichkeit & Selbstvertrauen (u.a. „Der Survival-Profi“). Leidenschaft fürs Schreiben, authentische Erfahrungsberichte und ein noch unveröffentlichtes Herzensprojekt: Ein Afrika-Roman. Aufbau zweier erfolgreicher YouTube-Kanäle mit über 250.000 Abonnenten: Themen – Fremdenlegion, Survival, Outdoor, Männlichkeit & kritische Politik-Kommentare. Herausforderungen durch politische Kontroversen: Hacking-Angriff, temporärer Verlust des Kanals und Neuausrichtung.

Reflektion der größten Fehler, Learnings und Bedeutung von Fehlerkultur. Grenzerfahrungen & Learnings: Survival, Wille & Kopf Bericht von einem Selbstexperiment: 100 km barfuß mit Handschellen in der schwedischen Wildnis – „Jeder muss im Kopf zuerst überleben!“ Die Erfolgsformel: 85 % Wille, dazu Skills & etwas Glück.

Interview with Elaine Ellingham, President & CEO of Omai Gold Mines Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/omai-gold-mines-tsxvomg-high-grade-discovery-transforms-economics-of-historic-guyana-mine-7355Recording date: 15th September 2025Omai Gold Mines (TSXV:OMG) presents a rare combination of scale, scarcity, and strategic positioning that positions it among the most compelling gold investment opportunities in today's market. The company's dramatic transformation from zero resources to 6.5 million ounces within four years demonstrates exceptional execution capability while creating substantial shareholder value, evidenced by the stock's remarkable 600% appreciation over the past year.The investment thesis centers on Omai Gold's membership in an exclusive group of only seven large-scale, developable gold projects globally that exceed 2 grams per tonne and remain available to public investors rather than being held by major mining corporations. This scarcity premium becomes increasingly valuable as major mining companies generate substantial cash flows from elevated gold prices while facing limited organic growth opportunities.Omai Gold's strategic advantages extend beyond resource scale to encompass exceptional infrastructure benefits. As a former producing mine, the project features existing cleared land, operational airstrip, road access, and critically, existing tailings facilities. These infrastructure elements substantially reduce development risk and capital requirements compared to greenfield projects, while the proximity to established transportation corridors and government-funded road improvements enhance operational economics.The company's financial position provides confidence in execution capability. With $19 million in cash following a February financing round, Omai Gold maintains adequate funding through the completion of its comprehensive preliminary economic assessment expected in early 2026. This capital supports four active drill rigs and high-impact studies that advance the project toward its targeted production capacity of 300,000 ounces annually, positioning the operation as a significant mid-tier producer.Beyond current resources, Omai Gold's exploration program offers substantial upside potential. Deep drilling beneath the Wenot deposit targets mineralization 600 meters below existing resources, with successful results potentially extending mine life from the current 20-30 year projection to 40 years. This exploration strategy addresses investor concerns about resource depletion while positioning Omai Gold as a potential multi-generational mining operation.The macro environment strongly favors Omai Gold's positioning. Central banks have become net buyers of gold for the first time in decades, while institutional investors increasingly view gold as a portfolio hedge against inflation and monetary policy uncertainty. Simultaneously, the mining industry faces supply constraints as major discoveries become rare and development timelines extend, creating a scarcity premium for large-scale, developable projects in stable jurisdictions.Guyana's political and economic environment provides additional investment security. President Irfaan Ali's recent re-election with 57% majority support and parliamentary control ensures policy continuity, while the country's transformation driven by offshore oil discoveries has generated the world's highest GDP growth rate. The government actively supports mining development as part of its economic diversification strategy, unlike jurisdictions where mining faces political opposition.The convergence of strong gold fundamentals, limited new supply, and Omai Gold's unique positioning creates compelling value realization potential. Whether through independent development or strategic acquisition by cash-rich major mining companies seeking growth opportunities, shareholders are positioned to benefit from multiple pathways to value maximization in an environment that rewards quality assets with premium valuations.View Omai Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/omai-gold-minesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

He notes Dmitry Medvedev's aggressive rhetoric against Finland. McCausland also discusses Israel's strike against Hamas in Doha, impacting US-Qatar relations, and US military posturing near Venezuela to intimidate Nicolás Maduro.

His brash style, while initially appealing and celebrated internationally, now alienates potential congressional allies and conservative voters. O'Grady suggests this approach is ill-suited for governing, hindering his economic reforms, as he struggles with high inflation and cuts to public subsidies, impacting public perception.945-1000 Chris Riegel, CEO of scholar.com, counters AI doomsayers like Geoff Hinton, emphasizing AI's transformational potential as a tool. He highlights the  mmense investment, hundreds of billions, in building gigawatt-plus data centers across the United States. This infrastructure drive is creating new industries and jobs, establishing the US as a global leader in AI, while also noting Asia's keen interest in US AI technology and Europe's lack of a cohesive strategy. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Jonathan Conricus observes Qatar's unprecedented move to engage beyond conventional tools, which Israel is closely monitoring. He suggests Israel's recent strike could signify a new deterrence doctrine, making Hamas leaders in Doha more vulnerable. This pressure might compel Hamas to accept Israel's terms for ending the conflict, which include releasing hostages and surrendering, thereby preventing further destruction and suffering in Gaza, despite the significant costs involved for Israel.1015-1030 CONTINUED Jonathan Conricus observes Qatar's unprecedented move to engage beyond conventional tools, which Israel is closely monitoring.

Despite warnings and previous Trump administration cuts, over $25 million in grants went to organizations with alleged ties to terrorism, antisemitism, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hamas. This included partnering with groups like CAIR, which also provided firearms training to radical mosques, raising serious questions about oversight and vetting standards for federal funds.1045-1100 Jonathan Speyer reports on Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping and Israel, sustained by Iranian, Iraqi, Hezbollah, and even Chinese support. He describes the Houthis as fanatical, religiously and tribally motivated, aiming for "death to America, death to Israel, and curse the Jews." While cutting their supply chain and taking Hodeidah port is militarily feasible for a Western-backed force, a lack of political will currently prevents such aggressive action against their sophisticated smuggling operations. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Anatol Lieven explains that Alexander Lukashenko of Belarus is a Soviet loyalist, not a Putin stooge, but was driven to Russia by Western sanctions. He discusses Russian drone incursions into Poland, likely an intentional message to NATO to test air defenses and warn against deploying troops to Ukraine.

While a flat tax would streamline the system and boost economic growth by focusing on consumption, de Rugy emphasizes that no tax system alone can resolve the severe US debt crisis; crucial reforms to Social Security and Medicare are indispensable.1145-1200 Ronan Wordsworth addresses a persistent recruitment and retention crisis in Five Eyes militaries, spanning decades. Younger generations, particularly Gen Z, favor STEM careers offering flexibility and better pay over military discipline.

Interview with Justin van der Toorn , CEO of Greenheart GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/greenheart-gold-tsxvghrt-advancing-multi-project-portfolio-7557Recording date: 10th September 2025Greenheart Gold is an emerging junior gold explorer with a robust management pedigree, led by CEO Justin van der Toorn whose success at Reunion Gold lends credibility to the company's strategic approach. The company operates five greenfield gold projects in the highly prospective Guyana Shield region—two in Guyana and three in Suriname—deliberately focusing on unexplored targets. Rigorous evaluation and financial discipline underpin their model, with each project subjected to a systematic 9-12 month process to reach a drill decision, and non-viable assets quickly dropped.Currently, Greenheart has active drilling at the Tamakay project in Guyana and the Majorodam project in Suriname. Early drilling at Majorodam delivered intersections including 30 meters at 2 grams per tonne gold, supported by strong infrastructure benefits such as proximity to paved roads and established mills, which help lower operating costs and development thresholds. At Tamakay, the program targets high-grade quartz veins previously mined by local artisanal miners, further highlighting the region's potential.Justin van der Toorn emphasizes the importance of an honest, data-driven approach, stating, “At the end of the day, it's exploration. You have to play a little bit of a numbers game here and make sure that you've got more than one egg in a basket,” reflecting the company's commitment to portfolio diversification and rigorous technical standards.Well-capitalized and backed by a supportive institutional shareholder base, Greenheart Gold is positioned to advance its pipeline without the immediate need for further fundraising. With a disciplined capital allocation strategy and a clear focus on advancing only the most promising opportunities, Greenheart is set to deliver value through near-term drilling results and multiple discovery pathways within a world-class geological province. These factors, combined with favorable macroeconomic conditions for gold and the underexplored nature of the Guyana Shield, create a compelling case for investors.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/greenheart-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Global Geopolitics and Military Displays Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses a Beijing military parade featuring Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, and Vladimir Putin, interpreting it as a message of strength and innovation, not peace, while downplaying the US role in WWII. He also covers the static battle lines in Ukraine, European proposals for a military force, and US involvement in Middle East conflicts in Yemen and Gaza, noting a tactical agreement with the Houthis. 915-930 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 2.mp3 Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army retired artilleryman, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor, and Diamond 6 Leadership and Strategy CEO. Pentagon's Evolving Mission and Global Order Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses the new national military strategy emphasizing homeland defense as the primary mission for the Department of Defense, shifting from an international "cop on the beat" role to a domestic one. This is reflected in increased border forces and Caribbean operations. McCausland also touches on China's ambition to establish a new global order, returning to its perceived historical position as a superpower, utilizing organizations like BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.930-945 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 3.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane at the Hoover Institution. Federal Reserve Independence and Financial Regulation John Cochrane explores the complex debate on whether financial regulation should be integrated with or separated from monetary policy and less independent of Congress. He raises concerns about the Fed's independence, its failure to foresee the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and the "too big to fail" phenomenon. Cochrane also discusses the risks of the Fed monetizing debt, its stance on stablecoins, and how its actions influence fiscal policy. 945-1000 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 4.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution. Reforming the Federal Reserve's Role John Cochrane addresses proposals to reorganize the Federal Reserve, questioning whether it should become more political or have its scope narrowed to monetary policy, his preferred option. He criticizes the Fed'spandemic response, specifically its decision to print trillions of dollars for deficits, which he argues was a choice leading to the 2022 inflation. Cochrane also examines the wisdom of Quantitative Easing (QE), suggesting it had limited economic impact but expanded the Fed's political influence.

China's Historical Revisionism and Autocratic Alliances Gordon Chang and General Blaine Holtdiscuss China's military parade, led by Xi Jinping, which falsely claims Chinese victory over Japan in WWII, omitting the US and Allied contributions. Holt views the parade as theater for a crumbling Belt and Road Initiative, not a united front. They note India's absence from the parade due to animosity with China. Despite appearances, Putin and Kim Jong-un also have underlying animosity towards Xi Jinping, making their alliance one of expediency, not unity.1015-1030 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 6.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Peter Huessy, President of Geostrategic Analysis, a fellow at the National Institute for Deterrent Studies. China's Nuclear Ambitions and Arms Control Challenges Peter Huessy describes China's nuclear weapons as tools for coercion and hegemonic goals, a stark contrast to the US view of deterrence. He notes China's rapid nuclear buildup, exceeding Soviet Union rates during the Cold War. Huessy and Gordon Chang discuss the imminent expiration of the New Start treaty with Russia and the absence of arms control talks with China, which has historically aided proliferation. This signals a "brave new world" with zero legal restraint on nuclear weapons.1030-1045 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 7.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Captain James Fanell, United States Navy retired, intelligence officer for the Seventh Fleet and for the Indo-Pacific Theater. Pacific Tensions: Philippines, China, and US Naval Strategy Captain James Fanell and Gordon Chang analyze China's strategic ambition to subjugate the Philippines, building militarized islands in the South China Sea. Fanell highlights Scarborough Shoal as a critical "cork in the bottle," potentially used by China as a military base. He notes the Philippines' new forward operating base with anti-ship missiles in the Bashi Channel as a counter. Fanell suggests a reinvigorated US Navymorale and a shift in the Pentagon's approach to deter China.1045-1100 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 8.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Rebecca Grant, Vice President of the Lexington Institute. Venezuela, Guyana, and US Deterrence in the Caribbean Rebecca Grant discusses Guyana'sburgeoning oil wealth and Venezuela's threatening territorial claims under Maduro, who also opposes democracy. She and Gordon Chang analyze a significant US Navy presence off Venezuela's coast, including destroyers and a Marine Expeditionary Unit, as a strong deterrent against Maduro's actions and his alliances with Russia and China.

À Port-au-Prince, des habitants ont décidé de regagner leur domicile. Le gang « Viv Ansanm » promet de faire taire les armes pour permettre le retour des citoyens. Et la population a répondu à l'appel. Des retours qui traduisent la détresse des habitants, fatigués des conditions de vie dans les camps de déplacés, et la volonté de recommencer à vivre normalement malgré les risques.  Dans les quartiers de Solino, Delma 30 et Nazon, d'anciens habitants découvrent les dégâts laissés par la violence, d'autres, la joie de rentrer chez eux après avoir été chassés. Des comités locaux se sont déjà activés pour nettoyer les quartiers. Si du côté des autorités, c'est le silence total, des organisations de défense des droits humains dénoncent cette démarche. C'est le reportage de Peterson Luxama, notre correspondant à Port-au-Prince. Au Guyana, une élection sous tension Alors que le pays élit, ce lundi, son président, le média guyanais Kaieteur News revient sur une attaque qu'il qualifie « d'effrontée » et qui a eu lieu dimanche. Des responsables de la commission électorale ont été visés par des tirs venant de la frontière entre le Guyana et le Venezuela. Ils étaient en train de transporter une urne dans la région de l'Essequibo, à l'ouest du pays. Le territoire est riche en ressources naturelles et convoité par Caracas depuis des décennies. Kaieteur News fait le lien entre cet événement et la multiplication des attaques de gangs vénézuéliens sur le territoire guyanais. Et CNN Latinoamérica s'interroge : « Pourquoi ces élections suscitent-elles autant d'attention que celles d'une nation plus grande et plus active en termes géopolitiques ? » La réponse est simple. Le pays devrait connaître la plus forte croissance de production pétrolière au monde durant les dix prochaines années. En 2015, une compagnie pétrolière avait découvert un gigantesque gisement de pétrole. Mais ce n'est pas la seule raison de l'intérêt porté à cette journée, selon CNN Latinoamérica. Cette élection est la première d'une série de scrutins qui devraient changer la face du continent sud-américain entre aujourd'hui et 2026 et bouleverser les collaborations de la région avec les États-Unis. À lire aussiGuyana : une élection présidentielle sur fond de manne pétrolière Une réunion en urgence entre les pays d'Amérique du Sud Les États-Unis ont dépêché des navires de guerre à proximité du Venezuela la semaine dernière. Un pas de plus dans la lutte contre le trafic international de drogue menée par Donald Trump. Ce lundi, la Celac se réunit à la demande de la Colombie, qui en assure la présidence tournante. Le média El Colombiano refait le point sur cette rencontre dépêchée d'urgence. Les membres doivent évoquer la situation et rappeler le rejet total de l'ingérence dans la région. El Colombiano revient aussi sur la guerre que mène Donald Trump à Nicolas Maduro, et rappelle qu'il y a quelques semaines, Washington a augmenté la récompense pour la capture du chef d'État vénézuélien. La Maison Blanche le soupçonne d'être en lien avec les cartels. La nouvelle récompense s'élève à 50 millions de dollars. Pour le média d'opposition vénézuélien TalCual, les tensions avec les États-Unis ont atteint un point de non-retour. Il dénonce un déploiement militaire disproportionné pour lutter contre le trafic dans les Caraïbes. TalCual déplore la situation dans le pays où désormais, à l'inefficacité du gouvernement, la pauvreté et la corruption s'ajoutent la menace d'une intervention étrangère.  Medellín, future « Silicon Valley d'Amérique latine » Medellín, la capitale économique de la Colombie, a lancé un grand plan de transformation pour devenir « la Silicon Valley d'Amérique latine ». Les autorités et les entreprises mettent leurs forces en commun pour faire de Medellín un centre de technologie et d'innovation, une sorte de Medellín 4.0. Depuis la fin de la pandémie, les premiers changements sont notables, comme les immeubles de coworking et l'arrivée de nouvelles entreprises internationales. Même si le chemin est encore long, Medellín ne compte pas baisser les bras. C'est le dossier Amériques du jour de Najet Benrabaa, notre correspondante à Medellin.  Les femmes noires, principales victimes des coupes budgétaires de Donald Trump  Le New York Times met en Une les femmes noires, les principales victimes des coupes budgétaires de Donald Trump dans le gouvernement fédéral. Le quotidien américain dresse le portrait de quatre femmes afro-américaines, dont Peggy Carr. Elle est la première personne noire et la première femme à occuper le poste de commissaire du Centre national des statistiques de l'éducation. Après 35 ans de carrière, en février dernier, un officier de sécurité est monté dans son bureau, il lui a donné 15 minutes pour faire ses affaires et l'a escorté en dehors du bâtiment, devant ses collègues sous le choc. Dans chaque portrait, l'histoire se répète : des fonctionnaires remerciés quand Donald Trump a commencé à démanteler les agences d'État, trop woke, trop libérales à ses yeux. Selon le New York Times, depuis des décennies, le gouvernement fédéral sert d'ascenseur social aux Afro-Américaines, discriminées sur le marché du travail. Résultat des courses, à l'échelle nationale, plus de 300 000 femmes noires ont perdu leur emploi dans les secteurs public et privé depuis février 2025. Les hommes blancs, eux, ont enregistré le plus grand nombre d'emplois supplémentaires sur la même période aux États-Unis.

Send us a textWhat happens when your childhood dreams collide with academic reality? Art Thomas, a client partner from Randstad Digital, knows this journey all too well. After receiving multiple D1 football offers but falling short on his SAT score by just 70 points, he was forced to completely reimagine his path to college athletics. That detour through the military academy became one of the most formative experiences of his life.Now a father of three, Art draws from his unique background as a first-generation American whose parents emigrated from Guyana with virtually nothing. Despite humble beginnings, Art never felt deprived growing up—a testament to his parents' determination to create opportunities through education and an unwavering work ethic. These same values now form the foundation of his parenting philosophy.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Art reveals how he encourages his children to dream audaciously while developing disciplined habits. When his youngest son declares he wants to play in the MLB after high school, Art doesn't dismiss it. "If you're not dreaming, then what are you doing? What are you chasing?" he asks. This perspective comes from his own journey of achieving what once seemed impossible—playing professional football and briefly joining his childhood team.Perhaps most powerful is Art's approach to daily self-investment. He teaches his children to set aside time each day for personal growth, regardless of distractions. "Make sure every day, two hours a day, you invest in yourself," he tells them, emphasizing that consistency and personal accountability create the foundation for future success.This episode beautifully illustrates how our most challenging experiences often become our greatest teachers, and how sharing both successes and failures with our children creates authentic connections and valuable life lessons. Whether you're a parent seeking guidance or simply someone navigating life's unexpected detours, Art's story will inspire you to persevere through challenges and keep dreaming big.Subscribe to the Quarterback Dadcast for more authentic conversations with dads who are working to become better leaders of their homes.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!
