Sunday Morning Service Aberdeen, MD 21001

President Biden has bowed to pressure and made the decision to drop out of the US presidential race. He's endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the potential Democrat Party nominee to run against Donald Trump – but is America ready for another female presidential nominee? Nuala McGovern is joined by Kelly Dittmar, Director of Research at the non-partisan Center for American Women and Politics and Kimberly Peeler- Allen, co-founder of Higher Heights, an organisation that works to mobilise black women voters, and which endorsed the Vice President yesterday.The Paris Olympics starts on Friday and it looks like they will be the first Games ever to have equal numbers of male and female athletes – but not of coaches. The figure for female coaches at the last Olympics in Tokyo, was just 13%. So what's happening to try and shift that dial? Nuala speaks to Dr Elizabeth Pike from Hertfordshire University who leads the Women in Sport High Performance pathway, and Emily Handyside, Head Coach for Wales Netball, and Coaching Performance Pathway Manager at UK Coaching.Nine months since the current Israel-Gaza war began, we look at pregnancy and giving birth in a war zone. Nuala hears from a mum in Gaza who recently gave birth, and also from a midwife trying to deliver care under constant bombing. We also speak to Hiba Al Hejazi from CARE International UK about the humanitarian support available for women in Gaza. Plus, Nuala is joined by Washington Post Middle East correspondent Louisa Loveluck to talk about the wider situation, including the worries of some of the Israeli hostages' families about the passing of nine months since their loved ones were abducted.The sculptor Dominique White has a new exhibition at the Whitechapel Gallery in London. It is four large sculptures made of iron, driftwood and detritus from the sea, lit in such a way to suggest that you are submerged, or looking at a shipwreck on the seabed. It was created during Dominique's six-month residency in Italy, the time granted to her when she won the Max Mara art prize for women in 2023.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Maryam Maruf Studio manager: Sue Maillot

How much do you know about the "path to the presidency"? Of course, for some people it can start decades before they officially announce that they are running, but in today's episode we are going to talk about everything from the convention to the electoral college to the transition. If you have seen the movie Shirley, about Shirley Chisolm's historic presidential run as the first black candidate for a major-party nomination for President of the United States and the first woman to run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, you have seen an even more in-depth look at the convention politics. In this episode we speak with Glyda Carr, president, CEO and co-founder of Higher Heights for America, and at the center of the national movement to grow Black women's political power from the voting booth to elected office. and Rebekah Caruthers, Vice President at Fair Vote, who has managed or consulted on campaigns, voter projects, and with candidates in over two dozen states including presidential and down ballot races in battleground states.If you want to get involved with the process. One way you can do that is by becoming a delegate at a political party convention. Its best to reach out to your state party to get specifics on the process, as each state is different.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and our real estate reporter Danielle Nagler join host Amanda Borschel-Dan. Saturday night an Israeli bus near the West Bank settlement of Ofra was shot at from a nearby Palestinian town of Silwad, leaving at least 8 bullet holes, but, thankfully, no injured. What else do we know? Earlier on Saturday, three Palestinian women from Nablus were arrested near a checkpoint with a makeshift submachine gun in their car. First of all, what is a makeshift submachine gun? Israel is set to allow an additional 1,500 Gazan residents into the country today, reaching 15,500. This rise was announced last month, but delayed. What are additional permits predicated on? We speak about the case of hunger-striking Palestinian prisoner Khalil Awawdeh. What makes his case unique? Nagler gives us an update on Israel's rising real estate prices, including a few selections of home sales from the past month. And finally, we hear about new tourism efforts by Israelis -- in Zanzibar! Discussed articles include: ‘I'm still shaking': Bus driver recounts West Bank shooting attack Gunfire hits crowded Israeli bus in West Bank; IDF launches manhunt 3 Palestinian women arrested at West Bank checkpoint with makeshift submachine gun Israel to allow 1,500 more Palestinian workers to enter from Gaza on Sunday Israel temporarily freezes arrest of hunger-striking Palestinian as health falters Inflation and housing prices continue to climb, breaking new records Housing snapshot: 9 apartments and houses recently sold across Israel Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on iTunes, Spotify, PlayerFM, Google Play, or wherever you get your podcasts.
