Vi har varit på Olseröds konsthall och tittat på en utmärkt utställning med John E Frantzéns verk. Inspirerande och originellt, från Cadillacen och den skrevande tjejen på Hells Angelsmålningen, till porträttet av kungafamiljen och den ofullbordade men drömska Last Ride, med en chopper lackad i glitter-flagor. Skissernas museum borde köpa Frantzéns fina förstudier. Så talar vi om JD Vance igen och om försöken att skjuta ned honom. Inte ens hans förslag om rösträtt för barn, förvaltad av deras föräldrar, är egentligen särskilt konstig. Den högt ansedde statsvetaren Henrik Ekengren Oscarsson förutspådde redan för 15 år sedan att frågan skulle dyka upp. Hollywood löjlar sig som vanligt och tycker nu att det är "problematiskt" att Amy Adams spelade JD Vances mamma i filmatiseringen av Hillbulli elegy. Varför det, era filmmiffon? Vi såg filmen i veckan och Glenn Close gör ett fantastiskt porträtt av Mamaw, Vances mormor. Intressant att Kamala Harris väljer en vicepresident som inte väger upp hennes vänsterlutning, utan förstärker den. Det beror antagligen att unga radikala amerikaner börjat hata Israel och den naturlige högerkandidaten Joe Shapiro, är en kraftfull försvarare av Israel. Men det är också ett tecken på att båda de amerikanska partierna lätt domineras av yttergrupper — något Johan skriver om i det kommande numret av Fokus och som behandlas i en alldeles nyutkommen bok som heter Hollow parties - ihåliga partier. Uteliggaren Anders i Kambodja, som bokstavligen har "skinnskalle" tatuerat i pannan är Johans mediala höjdpunkt i veckan. Vi glädjer oss åt att podden fått en fin artikel i flådiga magasinet Country Smart, ägnar Lyndon B Johnson och hans biograf Robert A Caro lite tid, liksom utgivningen på vårt eget förlag, Fuck you förlag. Susanna anar höst, men vi ser fram mot att bila till Italien och är glada för våra härliga strandpromenader. Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/hakeliuspopova. Hosted on Acast.

In his more than 20 years at NPR, Joe Shapiro has written stories from health to rising court fees to solitary confinement. He's spent most of his career writing stories about disability, starting when editors wouldn't even publish his work because they didn't think it was relevant. In this episode, Joe talks about covering disability rights, finding voices to anchor radio stories and saying “yes” to unexpected opportunities. “I love radio. I love hearing somebody's voice … you have to have the right person who can tell their story.” Guest: Joe Shapiro, investigations correspondent at NPR. Host: Jacqueline GaNun.

Mattie Stearns, “a nonbinary libertarian socialist J20 defendant, organizing in Carbondale for about ten years, and life-long resident of Carbondale.

This week, Off-Kilter is taking a break from our ongoing series about self-care as political warfare to honor the life and legacy of Judy Heumann, an iconic civil rights leader and the godmother of the disability rights movement. Judy passed away on March 4, 2023, at age 75. It was especially important to the Off-Kilter team and to many of us at The Century Foundation to do a tribute to Judy for this week's episode of the podcast because she was a mentor, friend, and an inspiration to so many of us personally, as is true for nearly everyone involved with the movement for disability rights and justice. Those of us engaged in disability rights advocacy and activism today simply wouldn't be doing this work if not for the trail Judy blazed. It is with a heavy heart, balanced out with immeasurable gratitude and love, that we dedicate this week's episode of Off-Kilter to celebrating the life of Judy Heumann. Rebecca was joined for this special tribute by several members of TCF's Disability Economic Justice Team: Kim Knackstedt, Kings Floyd, and Emily Ladau. Show notes Listen to the full Off-Kilter episode with Judy, Rebecca Cokley, Mia Ives-Rublee, and Representative Ayanna Pressley from September 2022 that's excerpted in this tribute Here is TCF's statement honoring Judy; and here are some of our favorite tributes to Judy: Rebecca Cokley's CNN op-ed; NPR's Joe Shapiro; AAPD's obituary And if you haven't watched Crip Camp yet, you're doing it wrong.

The GOP Florida Gov. DeSantis's disastrous coronavirus policy will kill lots of people. The dude that caused an AIDS outbreak in Indiana back in the day, a.k.a. Mike Pence, assured the country the CDC would relax guidelines for school reopenings. Florida invited the nation to its ill-fated reopening and then the Sunshine State became the epicenter of the virus. SCOTUS screwed us on a contraceptive vote and a religious freedom bill benefiting JEEBUS schools. The Crabs previewed the Supremes ruling regarding Trump's taxes, then talked about stunning passages from the book by Shitler's niece. The wife of the late Joe Shapiro said she doesn't think her husband would've taken the SATs for Man-baby. The Rapist-in-Chief's rally in Tulsa was likely a super-spreader event. Republican legislator Martha McSally published an academic paper stating women in the military get pregnant to "skirt" deployment. The orange load's presidential campaign has been chaotic and crappy. A broadcaster on FOX News challenged a Republican bag-of-wangs over his desire to fire Dr. Fauci. Finally, in white supremacy news, Tucker Carlson blathered fascist dog whistles and coded racist messages to his MAGAT fans.
On this edition of Trender Loving Care Jack and Miles (!) discuss Jair Bolsonaro testing positive for COVID-19, Mary Trump's new book suggests someone took Trump's tests for him in school, it's Ringo's 80th birthday, and ICE is using international student's inability to attend physical classes to force their deportation or force their transfer to a school that allows in-person classes.

US World Report - presents ‘Miracle on 70thStreet’ Meet Lou Stallman & his son Jerry Potente, one of the last surviving Tin Pan Alley songwriting teams in NYC. With a catalogue of nearly 500 songs and still growing, Lou has had a prolific career. Most recently, one of his songs is topping the charts again. “Round and Round” written in 1956 with his partner at that time Joe Shapiro for recording artist Perry Como. It’s now a 2018 megahit, thanks to a TARGET Department Stores holiday marketing campaign. Unknown to Lou, the Australian artist Sia recorded and released her version of ‘Round and Round’, this past November on a Christmas CD. Target has used the track in their Thanksgiving and Christmas television ads nation-wide. Now, Jennifer Hudson has sung her version of the song on 'The Voice', just about 10 days ago. NBC and Target collaborated on this effort with a spectacular children’s choral group all dressed in Holiday Red and Gold. ‘This Rags to Riches’ story has been a blessing for Lou and Jerry and it couldn’t come at a better time. “The record business has changed,” said Lou recently. “I’ve written for Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin and many other artists over the years, but nothing like this has ever happened.” Join Tom Osborne and his radio news team for their 2018 Hanukkah and Christmas special ‘Miracle on 70th Street’. Enjoy!
Shelly was born in Tel Aviv, Israel and grew up in London and is often described as a mixture of Israeli passion and British refinement. This mixture of extremes sparked her interest in anthropology and Shelly has spent a vast amount of my time traveling the world and studying different cultures, including backpacking in South America and India and visiting most of Europe and the USA, gathering stories and broadening her collection of ideas. Shelly started acting on the stages of London at the age of nine, performing in dozens of plays, with over forty performances each, before moving onto Film and TV at 16-years-old. Some of her latest projects include an anti-war short film called "The C-Gate" which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and a recurring co-star role on the Amazon hit show "Transparent." This spring she is set to star as Astrid, an indecisive woman who can't get her life together in the indie feature film "Phoning It In" which Joe Shapiro will direct. In addition, she will be co-hosting an online talk show with Natalie Marciano called "Black Sheep Revelations" which will discuss current issues, ruffling some feathers in a humorous and unique manner.
In this Podcast Extra, NPR correspondent Joe Shapiro recalls the life and legacy of Martin Sostre, someone he first reported on as a student in the 1970s. Sostre died a free man in 2015. But he spent at least nine years of his life in solitary confinement, including in the notorious Attica prison. Today, Sostre's life and pioneering prisoners' rights work is largely hidden from the public.
