PANEL 2   Introductory Remarks by Professor Frances Hasso (@nasawiyya)   "Queer Threads: Activist Fashion in Palestine" Roberto Filippello, University of Amsterdam In this presentation I sketch the contours of the formation of an activist fashion scene across Palestine in the face of material challenges that the infrastructures of the occupation pose to the production and circulation of clothes. I theorize the creative practices of Palestinian fashion designers and image-makers as makeshift acts of collective disidentification with the ecocidal, racist, and queerphobic Zionist enterprise, and argue that “queer decolonial fashion practices” offer a model of creative activism wherein environmental ethics, anti-racism, and queer claims are fundamentally interconnected. Conjoining Gramscian analytical categories and queer epistemologies from the South, I highlight how sartorial praxis and embodiment figure in the imagination of Palestinian youth. (25 minutes) “Laboratories of Speculation: Rethinking Jericho, ‘the City of the Moon'” Ronak K. Kapadia, University of Illinois Chicago (via Zoom) Critical queer feminist study has lovingly brought renewed methodological attention to long-forgotten, once-inhabited sites, archives, geographies, and histories, which can be newly reanimated for the service of contemporary collective social life. One such instance in present-day Palestine has been the international art, writing, and research residency called el-Atlal (“The Ruins”) co-founded by Karim Kattan, Victoria Dabdoub, Rebecca Topakian, Céleste Haller from 2014-2019 in the town of Jericho, the “oldest city in the world.” Given its historical heritage and complex station in the local imagination, Jericho is a generative utopian site for enacting new incubatory spaces for alternative political and aesthetic possibility in the dystopian here and now. If Palestine, and the Palestinian people subject to Israeli rule, have long served as one of the foremost paradigmatic “laboratories” for the development of late modern settler security states and their fabrication of new technologies of policing, maiming, and killing perfected on Palestinians under siege, this talk explores how we might reimagine an archetypal “Palestine” instead as an experimental site of decolonial fantasy and creative freedom, one that also portends the ends of the conjoined US/Israeli settler security states and their forever wars on terror.

  Introductory Remarks by Professor Frances Hasso (@nasawiyya) PANEL 3 “Seeing Palestine, Not Seeing the Palestinians: Gaza in the British Pathé Colonial Lens” Shahd Abusalama, Lebanese American University My presentation will critically engage with the representation of the Palestine question in general and Gaza refugees in particular by British Pathé, which, as a leading media institution of the British Empire, was also a dedicated advocate of Zionist ambitions and Jewish settlement in Mandate Palestine. While presenting corresponding reels, I will interrogate Pathé's discursive strategies in representing the 1947-48 Nakba (Arabic: catastrophe), the 1956-7 Israeli occupation of Gaza, and Israel's subsequent occupation of Gaza beginning in 1967, exposing its ideological framing of the Palestinian people as either “terrorists” or “helpless victims” and the glorification of the newborn state of Israel. I argue that British Pathé provided a consolidating hegemonic discourse on Palestine-Israel that prevails to this day in mainstream Western political, media, and academic discourse to shield Israel and its allies from responsibility.

Concrete Imaginings: Building a Liberated Palestine An In-Person and Livestreamed ConferenceWednesday, February 28, 2024   Panel 1 Introductory Remarks by Professor Frances Hasso (@nasawiyya)   “The Urgency of Anti-Imperial Feminism: Lessons from Palestine” Walaa Alqaisiya, Ca' Foscari University of Venice (via Zoom) (08:30-38:30) This talk maps the epistemic, political, and moral grounds informing the urgency of anti-imperial feminism that Palestine brings into sight. Combining decolonial and Third-Worldist Marxist theoretical approaches, the first part of the talk unpacks the functionality of gender to the onto-epistemic foundations of Zionist settler colonialism under US-led imperialism. The second part discusses how the centering of the Palestinian national question redefines the moral and political parameters of feminist and queer mobilisation. In doing so, the last part shows the limitations and tensions that post-structural feminist and queer approaches carry, when dealing with the question of liberation, violence, and development in global South contexts, such as Palestine. (25 minutes)   “Christian Zionism, Displacement, and the Role of Travel” Jennifer Kelly, University of California, Santa Cruz (via Zoom)(~39:00-1:03:00) A central tenet of Falwell's Moral Majority, founded in 1979, was unequivocal support for Israel and, by 1983, he began his first of many “Friendship Tours to Israel,” which included meetings with government officials and tours of Israeli military installations. Today, Christian Zionism tours follow this template, pairing pilgrimage with celebrations of Israel's sustained displacement of Palestinians. At the center of displacement in Jerusalem, for example, is a biblical theme park—run by settlers—planned for Silwan that comprises a cable car, a seven-story Jewish cultural center on Wadi Hilweh land, and shopping centers and homes for settlers. And, during this current genocidal war on Gaza, Christian Zionists across the U.S. are once again eagerly seeing Israel's destruction of Gaza as a sign of end times and calling for unchecked Israeli control over all of Palestine. In this paper, I show not only how tourism is never a thing apart from colonial state violence, but also how tourism is part of the fabric of a U.S. Christian Zionism that both enables and facilitates Palestinian displacement.

Four Introductory Remarks - Simplicity in Preaching

Free Christian Audiobooks (Aneko Press)

To attain simplicity in preaching is of the utmost importance to every minister who wishes to be useful to souls. Unless you are simple in your sermons, you will never be understood, and unless you are understood, you cannot do good to those who hear you. Of course, the first objective of a minister should be to preach the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth as it is in Jesus. But the next thing he ought to aim at is for his sermon to be understood, and it will not be understood by most of his congregation if it is not simple. To attain simplicity in preaching is by no means an easy matter. I fear a vast proportion of what we preach is not understood by our listeners anymore than if it were Greek. When people hear a simple sermon or read a simple tract, they are apt to say, "How true! How plain! How easy to understand!" and might assume that anyone can write in that style, but are unaware of the diligence required to maintain simplicity. Simplicity in preaching is not childish preaching. If we suppose that the people like that sort of sermon, we are greatly mistaken. If our listeners get the impression that we consider them a parcel of ignorant folks for whom any kind of "infant's food" is good enough, our chance of doing good is lost altogether. People do not like even the appearance of condescending preaching. They feel we are not treating them as equals, but as inferiors. Human nature always dislikes that. They will at once put up their backs, stop their ears, and take offense. Finally, coarse or vulgar preaching is not needed. It is quite possible to be simple and yet to speak like a gentleman with the demeanor of a courteous and refined person. It is an utter mistake to imagine that uneducated and illiterate men and women prefer to be spoken to in an illiterate way by an uneducated person. As a rule, people, no matter their position in society, only tolerate vulgarity and coarseness in the pulpit when they can get nothing else.

Introductory remarks for the In Search of Zera Yacob Conference, contextualising the aims and intentions of the conference, the texts of the Ḥatäta Zär'a Ya‛ǝqob and the Ḥatäta Walda Heywat themselves and their historical context. These texts have fascinated and puzzled alike on account of their philosophical depth, beauty and apparent historical singularity. They have been called the ‘jewel of Ethiopian literature', and served to demonstrate, in the words of Claude Sumner, that “modern philosophy, in the sense of a personal rationalistic critical investigation, began in Ethiopia with Zera Yacob at the same time as in England and in France”. Contributors to the conference will explore the text's philosophical arguments and their significance, the historical context of intellectual exchanges in Ethiopia, issues of translation and the forging of philosophical vocabularies, notions of authorship and authenticity in philosophical writing, the legacy of colonialism for Ethiopian studies, and the methodology of a truly global history of philosophy.

Carrie Gibson is an American-born, Cambridge-trained historian, journalist, and author. America, a wild outpost for British Puritans, speculators, merchants, and malcontents began in the year 1776, no? And it wasn't until the year 1863, on whose dawn Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, that we all began thinking about slavery, right? While these are, no doubt, important dates to remember, the real history of America (what we might call, Spanish America!) stretches much further back in time. From this episode, you'll learn…The historical significance of the British monarchy and whether it's been, on the whole, an evil visited, or a good conferred upon the rest of the world; imperialism old and new, as practiced variously by the British, French, Americans, and Chinese; if, in our studies and national myths, we overemphasize the role played by Christopher Columbus; the Valladolid Debate and the earliest arguments against slavery; Manifest Destiny and Karl Marx; Why conspiracies are so alluring; and if America suffers from a delusion of innocence. #history #columbus #americaTIME STAMPS0:00 Introductory Remarks 1:39 The Death of Queen Elizabeth and the state of the monarchy6:07 Carrie's Biographical Info 8:32 Has the British Empire been a net benefit or detriment? 10:18 Asian vs European Imperialism 13: 55 Differences between American and British schools, how they produce their scholars21:29 Do we care too much about Christopher Columbus? 30:10 With whom would YOU sail? 32: 27 The Valladolid Debate and Slavery44:30 American Expansionism and Manifest Destiny; Marx, Hegel55:10  Bad history and reasons we're drawn to conspiracies1:00;33 America's delusion of innocence, Reinhold Niebuhr1:07:50 Rapid Fire questions–Links to purchase Carrie's books: Empire's Crossroads: https://www.amazon.com/Empires-Crossroads-History-Caribbean-Columbus-ebook/dp/B00JLQ4QJA/ref=sr_1_1?crid=16N0B4C5D59EM&keywords=empire%27s+crossroads&qid=1663272871&sprefix=empire%27s+crossroads%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-1. El Norte: https://www.amazon.com/El-Norte-Forgotten-Hispanic-America/dp/0802148360/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2APVU17HXJ292&keywords=carrie+gibson&qid=1663269078&sprefix=carrie+gibson%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-2. Get in touch or keep up to date with Carrie here: https://carriegibson.co.uk. https://twitter.com/carrieegibson.https://www.facebook.com/cegibson. – Listen to this and all episodes on your favorite podcast streaming service: Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/74eUg83Q8zOgaRA5EBuzyl?si=871b6aa8082146af. Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finnerans-wake/id1560923796. –Please, don't hesitate to leave a comment or send me a message (to which, I assure you, I'll promptly respond!) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080972774597Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielethanfinneran/Twitter: @DanielEFinneranEmail me at finneranswake@gmail.com

Recorded in Lake Jackson, Texas, on December 4, 2021. Ron Paul's two campaigns for president (2008 and 2012) were watershed moments for liberty-minded people around the world. The "Ron Paul Revolution"—centered around his undiluted message of peace, property, and markets—changed the way millions thought about the American empire and the American financial system. Dr. Paul's focus on central banking and foreign policy caught politicians and pundits off guard, forcing them to scramble for explanations of our Middle East policy and Soviet-style central planning at the Fed. Politics in America has not been the same since the "Giuliani moment" and "End the Fed." The Ron Paul Revolution was both a political and cultural phenomenon.

We all know the idiom credited to philosopher Plato: “Necessity is the mother of invention.” It means, of course, that new ways of doing things are often created or discovered when there's a real, intense need for them. And as we navigate this COVID-19 pandemic together, it's fair to say this adage rings true louder today than in recent history — especially when it comes to the rising number of brilliant innovations materializing and flourishing in the health-tech sector.The National Angel Capital Organization (NACO), in partnership with HaloHealth (Canada's first physician-led angel network) was proud to host a collaborative roundtable on Thursday April 23 that featured an esteemed group of industry insiders who shared insights about the state of the med-tech ecosystem in light of COVID-19.

Part 1, "Introductory Remarks on the Importance of Orthodoxy""Heretics," a series of essays by Gilbert Keith Chesterton.Book Theme: "Thaxted," written by Gustav Holst, arranged by Kevin MacLeodSeries Theme: Pachelbel's "Canon in D," performed by Owen PoteatChesterton had a sense of humor, had a sense of drama, and had sense.  He was a man of strong opinions, and quite willing to argue vehemently for his own opinions, even with his friends -- and they remained his friends.  Seems to me that's hard to find anymore.He wrote prolifically.  He wrote humor.  He wrote mystery novels, the Father Brown mysteries in particular.  But he also wrote his opinions, his religious opinions and his opinions about religion.  "Heretics" is a book about religion and politics, theory and fact, morals and efficiency.What I most admire about "Heretics," written a bit over a century ago, is that his arguments are exceptional, and that so many of them are still quite recognizably true.  He argues that the weakening and devaluing of religion has also weakened and devalued heresy.  He argues that people should be able to speak freely -- but that freedom of speech has actually decreased people's willingness to speak about important issues.  And so much more.This isn't the book you might expect it to be.  I think you'll enjoy it, and maybe even learn something.  Even if you disagree with it.
