I spent an hour yesterday talking with Tom Walker, who was interviewing me for the Peace & Justice Report on WSLR community radio in Sarasota, Florida.

And then, it was back to normal. On Wednesday, developer Pat Neal told the Sarasota County Commission why a road should be built in the south county that happens to benefit mostly residents of one of his developments. The commissioners obliged, unanimously.Next: The United States and Canada are in a tiff like not seen since the 18th century. WSLR's Peace & Justice Report interviewed a Canadian diplomat who also happens to be a snowbird with a condo on Longboat Key.Then: A veterans' group on the Suncoast is planting microforests. What gives? The Our Changing Environment hosts on WSLR bring us the details.Next: Four hundred people crowded into a town hall organized by opponents of a takeover of the Ringling Museum of Art by New College. Farah Vallecillo was there.

The week before Thanksgiving, amid what still looks like a boom for window and door makers, local manufacturer PGT Innovations laid off 225 workers in Tampa, and then another 150 in Venice. The layoffs came after PGT was taken over by Miter Brands, a Pennsylvania-based company. Johannes Werner talked to one Venice worker who says he and his wife lost their jobs the same day.The newly constituted Sarasota City Commission went through a test on Monday. That test came about when Commissioner Jen Ahearn-Koch made a motion to take back a vote the outgoing commission made a month earlier. At issue was a downtown street the city handed over to a developer, before even seeing the developer's site plan. Ahearn-Koch wanted more discussion on how the developer's yet-to-be-known project would benefit the public.On Tuesday, a state panel unanimously approved a $1.2 billion dollar storm recovery package for Florida Power & Light. This allows FP&L, come January, to hike the average monthly electricity bill by 12 dollars. This is pretty much routine, and it will keep the corporation in the black and its investors happy. But one public advocate spoke against approval at the Public Service Commission meeting in Tallahassee. Johannes Werner spoke to Jordan Luebkemann, an attorney representing Florida Rising and Earthjustice.As the national affairs correspondent for the Nation magazine, John Nichols views national politics through a progressive lens. He will put the election in perspective during a presentation and discussion at the Fogartyville Community Center this Saturday, 7 pm. WSLR's Peace and Justice Report host Tom Walker interviewed Nichols this morning.

Leslie is joined by Author Eliza Sultan and District Attorney of New Mexico's 13th Judicial District, Barbara Romo. The pair are here to talk about Eliza's book, "Children on the Front Lines of Justice: Report Sexual Abuse and Survive the Criminal Trial," which D.A. Romo wrote the foreword in. "Children On the Front Lines of Justice” is the story of a brave brother and sister, May and Charlie, who testify against a family member at his criminal trial. They must be brave and tell the truth about sexual abuse. The story is narrated from the children's perspective. The objective of the book is to help children, parents, caregivers, guardians and anyone working with these survivors to have an idea of what to expect- when faced with having to testify. Any child from age 2-18 faced with having to testify at a criminal trial could benefit from this story of valiance and justice. The book is also a resource that prosecutors, advocates, and anyone who is touched by the justice system could share with families facing this experience. Eliza and her kids hope that the book will help children and their families know that they are not alone in their experience.  The book is available on Amazon at this link:https://a.co/d/0eCnTSW Eliza Sultan is an author, writer of op-eds, legislative advocate, self-described pain-in-the-activist, and mother of two children. She became active on issues of child testimony reform and child welfare after her family experienced first-hand the toll that participating in the criminal justice process takes on a family, particularly the issue of children testifying in open-court in front of someone who harmed them. Inspired by the courage of her children, Eliza began advocating to bring awareness to these issues and push for legislative and policy change that reflects the reality of the trauma that the judicial process itself exacts on families. In addition to her book, Eliza continues her advocacy through speaking engagements and consultation with policy leaders across the country, and she anticipates expanding her advocacy into other areas of the justice system that impact children. You can follow her on Instagram where her handle is @ESultanAdvocacy. Barbara Romo is District Attorney of New Mexico's 13th Judicial District.

She has worked for the New Mexico Victim's Rights Project as a victims' rights attorney, providing legal representation to crime victims as well as providing training and assistance to prosecutors, law enforcement, and other agencies who assist victims of crime. Barbara has been much lauded receiving the Community Service Prosecutor  of the year award in 2018,  Prosecutor of the Year in 2016, Rookie Prosecutor of the Year in 1997 all from the New Mexico District Attorney Association.

In this episode, Valay Singh of the India Justice Report (IJR) delves into the critical state of justice capacity in India, highlighting key findings from the India Justice Reports from 2019 and 2022. Access to justice, a fundamental right guaranteed by the Constitution of India, is as essential as health, education, and water for the country's social and economic development. The IJR reveals significant challenges within the Indian justice system, from an overwhelming backlog of pending cases to overcrowding in Indian prisons, where the majority of inmates are undertrials, and the systemic issues across legal, police, judiciary and prisons that hinder effective justice delivery.

Our investigative team looks at the available data, compares descriptions of news events to our video record, and speaks to experts and critics about the Department of Justice investigation into the Phoenix Police Department. Our investigation finds mischaracterizations, misstatements and errors of fact, and raises the question of whether the DOJ report's conclusions are accurate.

The latest ALICE report just came out, and it shows that the number of people living paycheck-to-paycheck keeps growing. Our news team is pointing at the elephant in the room: Low wages. Then: Two affordable-housing projects are going through the approval process in the City of Sarasota, as Ramon Lopez reports. But so is another luxury condo tower that will increase demand for low-pay workers and therefore affordable housing. Next: Jon Thaxton is a former county commissioner. He is also a forceful advocate for affordable housing. On today's Peace & Justice Report on WSLR, he advocated for a local funding source and for putting the onus on luxury developers. Finally: Today is Juneteenth, and it's time to celebrate. Mark Warriner and WMNF have a few leads on how to go about it both in Sarasota and Tampa.

HTA undertakes metallurgical processing of components for the F-35 striker jet and are integral to the supply chain of weaponry sent to the state of Israel. I spoke with Mercedes Zanker — an activist against militarism, 3CR broadcaster, and a member of Renegade Activists, who are part of the Hume for Palestine Collective — to talk about today's picket at HTA. The picket will continue until HTA publicly ends their contracts with Lockheed Martin and other weapons suppliers. For information about the picket and how you can get involved, see Hume for Palestine's Instagram. On Wednesday last week the Victorian Government released its response to the Yoorrook Justice Commission's report entitled ‘Yoorrook for Justice'. The commission is the nation's first formal truth-telling process set up to examine injustices experienced by First Nations people since colonisation. Of the 46 recommendations the report makes, the Victorian Government under Jacinta Allans supports just 4 in full, with 39 supported in principle or in-review, and 3 recommendations outright rejected. The establishment of a new police independent oversight authority, as recommended by the Commission, is being reviewed or supported in principle. The Victorian Government rejected recommendations that include: raising the criminal age of responsibility to 14 and the minimum age of detention to 16; overhauling discriminatory bail laws and creating a presumption in favour of bail for almost all offences; and strengthening the state's Charter of Human Rights to make it more accessible.I spoke with Nerita Waight, the CEO of the Victorian Aboriginal Legal Service to talk about the Victorian Government's response. Community Announcements: Ongoing picket at HTA — 43B Lara Way, Campbellfield.

It was supposed to be a moment of robust discussion about the Sarasota County Commission's efforts to defund basic social services and turn them over to charities. But the discussion was cut short by an unexpected twist. Our news team was there. Then: Richard Corcoran has big plans for the small college in Sarasota. But, for now, he's arm wrestling with professors at New College who feel he's not including them in his planning. Arianna Lockman has a report about a grievance filed by the faculty union. Next: A former Republican state senator and the Republican public defender in Sarasota teamed up to discuss justice reform on today's Peace & Justice Report on WSLR. A dysfunctional local and state prison system are in deep need of reform, if you ask them.

It's a series of major failures that should not have happened.   The US Department of Justice has released its report into the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas in 2022.  For over an hour, 33 students and three of their teachers, many of whom were shot, were trapped in a room with an active shooter while law enforcement remained outside.   In the end 21 people lost their lives.  US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Tim Dower that the incident was rife with misinformation and lack of preparation.  There are 273 recommendations in the lengthy report.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bridget Ziegler's tenure was not on the agenda of the school board yesterday evening, but the conservative activist certainly was on the mind of the public. At last night's meeting, she had to endure four hours of public comment, mostly asking her to resign. Florence Fahringer followed the proceedings — and put her finger on something that was NOT on the agenda. Then: The Florida Legislature is into the second week of its 60-day session. The biggest teachers' union in Florida is backing a bill that would fund all-day pre-K daycare in low-income areas. The FEA also opposes a bill that would weaken child labor protections.

Scott Osborne.

We sat down with Glenn for a two part conversation where he was asked who science owes an apology to , what it owes an apology for and what needs to happen for society to develop the wisdom required to overcome crises like climate change. We played part one of the discussion during today's show. You can find more articles from Glenn on his Substack.// Professor of Practice in Environmental Wellbeing at the University of Sydney Melissa Haswell joined us to discuss the findings of a recently-released report investigating the human health and wellbeing impacts of the fossil fuel industry. The report, co-authored by Melissa, Jacob Hegedus and Professor David Shearman, synthesises peer-reviewed academic evidence of the myriad direct and indirect risks to human health and wellbeing posed by oil and gas developments and highlights some serious concerns about the immediate health impacts of oil and gas extraction and processing for people and the environment, as well as their downstream contributions to the climate emergency.

It's back to school, and there's confusion among teachers, students and parents. Last week, the publisher of an advanced-placement psychology course said its teaching materials may violate a Florida ban on addressing LGBTQ issues in classrooms. A clarification by the Florida Secretary of Education was not helpful, and each school district is now reacting differently. Sophia Brown has her eyes on the Sarasota School district. Then: Manatee County's approach has produced better results for affordable housing construction than in neighboring Sarasota. But even in that no-nonsense county, a big housing proposal for veterans has hit a snag. The WSLR News team is following that story. Also: The New College administration ended a long-standing music program last week. Bonnie Silvestri interviewed New College New Music creator Stephen Miles on WSLR's Peace & Justice Report today. We have the highlights from that interview.

ShowNotes The collaboration between The Purpose Room and The India Justice Report came about because we are aligned in our core purpose to contributing our own two cents/rupees to creating a better world. The partnership is about helping raise awareness and understanding of the Indian justice system - so that individual know their rights and familiarise themselves with the workings of the justice system. The aim of course is to discuss how the delivery of quality justice must be seen as a priority and become real in the lives of everyone.  As Maja Daruwala said, “Citizens deserve to be well-governed, the delivery of justice is one of those factors that go into showing whether you are governing well or not.”  My guests for the second episode on the India Justice Report are Surya Prakash BS, Fellow and Programme Director at DAKSH a civil society organisation working on judicial reforms and Radhika Jha, a lead researcher for the Status of Policing in India Report series from Common Cause. The conversation focuses on budgeting in the justice system, the availability of funds, underutilisation, prioritisation or lack of it, access to justice, the quality of justice and more….

Shownotes The Elephant in the Room is my learning and listening project. Something that started out during a period of deep introspection and despair evolved to also becoming a passion project. But being passionate means always trying to do better and living up to the committed purpose - to shine a light on issues of inclusion & inequity. In this case it is about spotlighting the importance of access to justice for everyone in society. The partnership with the India Justice Report is also about getting ordinary citizens to understand the justice system better - so that they are better able to exercise their rights.  My guests on this episode are Maja Daruwala, Chief Editor of the India Justice Report, and a barrister from Lincolns Inn and Valay Singh, Project Lead of the India Justice Report. We spoke about the purpose behind India's first ever ranking of states on their capacity to deliver justice. The report measures the structural capacity of state based instrumentalities of the justice system against their own declared mandates.  We also spoke about
