The episode covers the Open AI lawsuit filed by Elon Musk, the NYPD mandated to change protest response tactics, the rise of anti-DEI bills in several states, the history of Women's History Month, and ends with a lighthearted dad joke. The hosts also discuss the behind-the-scenes tactics of editing and adapting content for YouTube and share their thoughts and insights on various nonprofit-related topics. The Clash Over Nonprofit Promises and Silicon Valley Profits (Musk vs. OpenAI)   Elon Musk is suing OpenAI, alleging it has strayed from its nonprofit roots to chase profits, according to reporting from Axios and others. The heart of the dispute lies in Musk's claim that OpenAI, which he helped found, reneged on a commitment to operate as an open-source entity under its original 501(c)3 nonprofit status.   The lawsuit accuses OpenAI of becoming a secretive, profit-driven organization under Microsoft's influence (with the initial ability to leverage tax-deductible donations). The lawsuit alleges this is an egregious shift from OpenAI's original mission, and highlights how the 501(c)3 could serve as a vehicle to abuse by commercial businesses. (See also how IKEA is owned by a nonprofit!)   "If this business model were valid, it would radically redefine how venture capitalism is practiced in California and beyond,” says Musk. He adds that “competing against an entity employing the new OpenAI business model would be like playing a game of basketball where the other team's baskets are worth twice as many points,” in reference to the pre-tax benefits of OpenAI's initial funding model.   Though, it is worth noting is that Musk might also be interested in slowing down OpenAI so his Grok competitor can catch up…

Everyone knows that time is elastic, especially the police.

Javad Khazaeli represents a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel swept up in the mass arrests that followed St. Louis Police's “kettling” tactics in 2017. He explains his shock that the city is appealing a recent appeals court verdict — and who he thinks is really driving the city's strategy.

This conversation amongst friends is a peek into the deep complexities of keeping Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and other marginalized folks safe while they activate and organize for liberation. Black Movement Law Project is about the intentional and deliberate work of first protecting (physically and legally) the people in movement spaces. At the same time, the work of BMLP is supporting local communities to develop sustainable infrastructure so that the people within movement spaces are empowered and cared for. BMLP’s origins thread back to Ferguson and with nash, even further back into the Occupy Movement.  Their work has been fundamental across the country as people protest police brutality and the terrorizing of Black and other mariginalized people by police. What surfaces in this conversation is the strategy and forward-thinking necessary to liberate marginalized folks when working within systems that are designed to subjugate them. Every move must be carefully turned over, anticipating the fall-out way down the road. Historically, as Abi asserts, the very institutions that cause the crises usually come out twice as strong in the end. Thus, with loud calls for accountability for the crimes of the white supremacist insurrectionists, movement people must be mindful of the unintended consequences. During this conversation, for example, Tanay, Nicole, Abi, nash, and Marques carefully turn over how policies regulating hate speech can eventually be used to clamp down on marginalized people trying to organize around systems of oppression. It was fascinating to listen to this “think tank” do its thinking. and see their understanding of the current state of anti-oppression work evolve. Their strategizing and BMLP operations are rooted in their lived experiences as People of Color on the ground during uprisings and their desire to support movement spaces from a place of relationship. No one gets thrown away. As nash says, “Liberation is collective or it’s non-existent.”   In this episode, we talked about: The origin story of the Black Movement Law Project, with its intention to create a proactive space for Black leadership in jail and legal support for the Black Lives Matter activists The priority and focus of  BMLP: to help build up the capacities and infrastructure in local Black-led communities to make movement work sustainable The work now in movement work: to create opportunities for entry The glaring differences in policing white supremacists v. Black activists fighting for their lives and Constitutional rights Monitoring hate speech on social media platforms The level of organization amongst white supremacists during the insurrection and the likelihood of support from the inside How white supremacist mobs in DC highlight Washingtonian’s need for statehood, a community that is mostly Black and without representation in the federal government The very complex difficulties in demanding accountability for the traitors while not putting Black and other marginalized folks at greater risk long term. The systems of accountability are built to oppress marginalized people.

Wherein tins and nerves are rattled. Geelong Advertiser, 12 January 1885, p. 3, cols. 4-5 See the rest of that day's news here   A bawdy depiction of charivari by the French caricaturist J.J. Grandville. It appeared in the journal La Caricature in 1831. Here's a rare image of colonial tin-kettling, roughly contemporary with the events at Germantown – It comes from page 8 of the Sydney Mail & New South Wales Advertiser of 18 December 1886, where it was one of a series that purported to illustrate ‘A Country Wedding’. The accompanying article (on page 26 of the same issue) described the tin-kettling depicted. Read the entire article here Note that the humble kerosene tin featured prominently in both illustration and text. Here's an example the genuine article – from its undented condition, evidently not used in tin-kettling – from the collection of the National Museum of Australia. Something I ran out of time to mention in the podcast was the other kinds of tin-kettling reported in 19th-century Australian newspaper. Dogs were relentlessly tin-kettled, for 'fun', by having tin kettles tied to their tails. And the tin-kettling of bees was a traditional (if rarely effective) method of coaxing a swarm back to the hive. Here's a report of an apicultural tin-kettling – or tanging – from the Mount Alexander Mail in 1872. Illustrations of colonial tin-kettling are hard to come by. But here's one, from the Sydney Mail & New South Wales Advertiser on 15 February 1905 – By illustrator Fred Leist, it accompanied 'An Unexpected Swarming', Chapter VII of the Sydney Mail Prize Story, 'Children of the State' by John Primrose – ‘…and then into view came the queerest procession. In the lead, the preacher, beating a boiler lid with an old iron spoon as though his life depended on it; nearest to him, Ruth, with uprolled sleeves, clanging two saucepan lids together like any Miriam of old; third on the list, and panting with the exertion of carrying a kerosene bucket in one hand and banging it with the rolling-pin held in the other, walked and half trotted Aunt Susan, and lastly, in the rear, in the van, and every where, able for once to make all the row they liked, were the children, seven all told, and trebling for noise the three adults. No one took any notice of 'the little teacher' as the procession swept by. Their eyes were on 'Cousin Dan,' and his on a thin black cloud that buzzed and fluttered before him…’ Read the whole thing here And finally, here's the very last account of full-throated tin-kettling I turned up at Trove Newspapers, from page 46 of Sydney's Daily Telegraph on 8 March 1953 (read the whole report here) – and the cartoon that accompanied it –

Interview with Amrit Wilson and Grunwick 40 about the iconic strike of East African Asian women in London in the 1970s. Apologies for the audio quality which isn't great on headphones at least.

Notably these included the 1974 Imperial Typewriters strike (https://libcom.org/history/imperial-typewriters-strike-1974-ron-ramdin), the 1973 Standard Telephones and Cables strike (https://libcom.org/library/standard-telephones-cables-strike-1973) and the 1972 Mansfield Hosiery strike (https://libcom.org/library/women-struggle-mansfield-hosiery-strike). Also mentioned during the podcast was the “colour bar” on public transport in Bristol enforced by the TGWU union which was eventually broken by a boycott in 1963 (https://libcom.org/history/black-white-buses-1963-colour-bar-dispute-bristol). In addition to struggles in workplaces, Asians in Britain fought racism in the streets, forming militant Asian Youth Movements around the country. This is a good account of these organisations: https://libcom.org/history/here-stay-here-fight-kenan-malik GLOSSARY Arthur Scargill – left-wing leader of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), at the time the most powerful trade union in the UK Ian Tomlinson – a newspaper seller on his way home in London who was attacked and killed by a police officer during the 2009 protests against the G-20 summit in London.

Topic: NY Comic-Con 2012, Comics of the week (9/24/12), Ben Folds Five Music: Intro: Bloc Party: "Kettling" Outro: Ben Folds Five: "Do it anyway"

This week’s show: We open with the Album of the Week: Bloc Party’s Four (tracks: “Truth” and “Kettling”). This is their first new album in (ahem) four years, since their album Intimacy was released to mixed reviews. Have they come back in style, or returned for more of the old? Kevin and Reggie went to the “other” Chicago-area comic convention, Wizard World, and bring news from the home front. C2E2 has garnered a lot of the attention in the area since its debut, but Wizard World is older. Kevin and Reggie discuss comics, and the wrestlers who love them. Finally, our list this week is a bit of a shuffle: Kevin made the suggestion (via email) to his two cohorts for a “Top 5 Dream TeamUps”. Reggie and Chris took it to mean “the best” team ups, while Kevin was talking team ups that haven’t yet happened. Either way, who doesn’t love a good mashup?
