Her research focuses on solidarity economy, economic democracy, and racial equity. Stacey Sutton Ph.D. is also a Board member of the New Economy Coalition, a Fellow at the Institute for the Study of Employee Ownership and Profit Sharing, and a Senior Researcher with the Small Business Anti-Displacement Network.

The Founder and Director of the Good Law Project, Jo Maugham KC, on leveraging the law to craft the world you'd like to see. The law is a powerful means to effect positive social change but not everyone has access to it and the law isn't always used for good. In this episode we explore social impact through the lens of public interest litigation, and we cover a wide range of examples and thought-provoking arguments. The Good Law Project is a non-profit organisation but it is not a registered charity since, as Jo explains, the charity regulator can be politicised. Not being a registered charity affords the Good Law Project more freedom to leverage the law to drive social change. Likewise, the Good Law Project is crowd-funded by approximately 34,000 monthly donors and they are not beholden to any single major donor which, in turn, enables the Good Law Project to embrace whatever tone of voice they wish. This episode is thought-provoking and highly informative.   About Jo Maugham KC A tax barrister by trade, Jolyon Maugham KC founded Good Law Project in 2017 without a single big backer and no staff. It has brought a series of landmark cases against a dishonest and increasingly autocratic government and won widespread acclaim in successfully reversing Boris Johnson's unlawful suspension of Parliament. Already the largest legal campaign group in the UK, Good Law Project is shining light into corners the establishment would rather keep dark - from the failures of Brexit to the still-developing PPE scandal, to the tax arrangements of business giants like Uber. With the increasingly important focus on the changing climate, Good Law Project has expanded its work into protecting the environment, both by highlighting those allowing the pollution of our river and seas, and those who are trying to prevent the government change in Net Zero policy, and being silenced as a result. From humble origins to a major legal force, Jolyon has become a key defender against government overreach.   Thank you for downloading this episode of the Do One Better Podcast.

Since 2010, the nonprofit Free Law Project has been working to make the legal ecosystem more equitable and competitive using technology, data and advocacy. It may be best known for CourtListener, its flagship project that houses an immense collection of court orders and opinions, and for its RECAP suite, which is the largest free collection on the internet of court filings and dockets.  But there is a lot more to the Free Law Project, as you will hear from our guest on today's episode, Michael Lissner, the Free Law Project's cofounder, executive director, and chief technology officer. Lissner started the Free Law Project while earning his master's degree at the University of California Berkeley School of Information, with the assistance of cofounder Brian Carver, who was then an assistant professor at the school and who is now copyright counsel at Google. Since then, the Free Law Project has expanded into a multifaceted source of legal data and tools, all with the goals of providing free access to legal materials and developing technology to enhance legal research and innovation.  The Free Law Project's data also supports a range of academic research and investigative journalism, including having provided data that fueled the recent Pulitzer Prize awarded to news organization ProPublica for its reporting on the financial conflicts of Supreme Court justices.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Santa isn't the only one who keeps a naughty and nice list. And if your organization winds up on the United States' list of bad boys (designated terrorist organizations), you can forget about receiving legal representation or assistance from US-based firms. That's material support, according to this holding, even if that support doesn't contribute to terrorism in any way.If you're not a 5-4 Premium member, you're not hearing every episode!

The fight to enshrine gender equality in the U.S. Constitution is more urgent than ever. The Equal Rights Amendment could prove pivotal in securing not just the promise of equal protections in the eyes of the law, but by providing crucial protections when it comes to reproductive rights in the wake of Roe's overturn. Nobody knows this better than Susan Frietsche—who recently secured an incredible victory for women in the state of Pennsylvania in terms of then power of the Equal Rights Amendment as it relates to reproductive freedom. In this episode, we delve into how Susan's work sets an important precedent for protecting women's rights—and how it relates to the fight to secure the federal ERA in the Constitution. This episode is a part of the latest installment of Ms. Magazine's Women and Democracy platform, "The ERA Is Essential to Democracy."Joining us to discuss these crucial topics is a very special guest:Susan Frietsche is the co-executive director of the Women's Law Project, for which she founded the Western Pennsylvania office in 2002. She provides direct representation for the 17 freestanding abortion facilities in Pennsylvania. Prior to joining the Women's Law Project she was the Deputy Director of the Pennsylvania ACLU.Check out this episode's landing page at MsMagazine.com for a full transcript, links to articles referenced in this episode, further reading and ways to take action.Support the show

Daniel P. Sheehan's career spans nearly 5 decades, beginning with his training in Harvard's College, Law School, and Divinity School. Early on, he co-founded Roxbury Summer and later played a pivotal role in the Pentagon Papers case, defending civil and 1st Amendment rights. Serving as General Counsel to the United States Jesuit Order's National Office of Social Ministry significantly shaped Sheehan's advocacy, blending legal expertise with ethical commitment. His legal prowess was further demonstrated in high-profile cases like Karen Silkwood's, which set a precedent in nuclear regulation, and the defense of Attica Prison inmates and New York Black Panther Party members, emphasizing his commitment to justice and civil rights.Sheehan's work extended into exploring extraterrestrial intelligence as Special Counsel for a Library of Congress inquiry initiated by President Jimmy Carter, culminating in a key seminar for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientists. His expertise led to roles as General Counsel for The Disclosure Project and the Institute for Cooperation in Space, advocating against space-based weapons and for transparency regarding UFOs and extraterrestrial intelligence.Notably, Sheehan defended Dr. John Mack, a Harvard Medical School professor, securing his academic freedom to research alien abduction. Today, he leads the Romero Institute and the Lakota People's Law Project. He's the Director of the New Paradigm Institute, advocating through education, litigation and research for full disclosure of UFO/ET phenomenon that's been kept from Americans by congress and the military/intelligence/aerospace industry complex.Teaching at the University of California at Santa Cruz, Sheehan continues to influence legal, ethical, and extraterrestrial discourse.In this episode, Danny and Faust cover the UFO cover up, including:-What classified evidence of ETs, UFOs, and reverse-engineered craft is the government hiding?-Is the military-industrial complex covering up the weaponization of alien technology?-What did the recent whistleblower testimony before congress reveal about UFOs?-Did President Jimmy Carter get information about extraterrestrial activity & technology?-Why was Harvard Professor John Mack persecuted for researching UFOs & ETs?-How can the American people reclaim the United States from the national security state?-Did the creation of US corporations under law trigger the destruction of America?-What was Brown Brothers Harriman, and how is this shady institution related to the Bush family?-What was the Malmstrom AFB missile incident of 1967?-Did a newspaper photograph from Roswell prove that the Army knew the UFO was not a weather balloon?-Have US Congress members been shown evidence of UFOs & extraterrestrials?-Is there evidence that Project Blue Book proved the existence of ETs, UFOs & reverse engineered aircraft?-What has footage from former U.S. Army Counterintelligence Special Agent whistleblower Luis Elizondo revealed about the existence of UFOs?-What evidence has Christopher Mellon, a former deputy assistant secretary of Defense for Intelligence, revealed about reverse-engineered alien aircraft?…and much more. Stay tuned till the end, when Danny shares why it's so vitally important to immediately disclose all the information that the military-industrial complex has been hiding for far too long.Connect with Daniel SheehanWebsite: https://www.danielpsheehan.com/X: https://twitter.com/danielsheehan45YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DanielSheehanEsqFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/danielpetersheehanNew Paradigm InstituteWebsite: https://newparadigminstitute.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/newparadigminstitute/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/newparadigminst/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NewParadigmInstituteX: ht

Jolyon Maugham KC, founder and executive director of the Good Law Project, did just that.  Good Law Project (https://goodlawproject.org) is a publicly-funded not-for-profit organisation, based in the UK, that uses the law to campaign “for a better world”.  Jo speaks with host Becky Annison about his transition from successful tax lawyer to outspoken public interest advocate.

In the lead-up to our season on the criminalization of protest we're bringing you part 1 of this excellent two-part Outside/In episode looking at this issue in the U.S. When members of the Oceti Sakowin gathered near the Standing Rock Reservation to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline, they decided on a strategy of nonviolent direct action. No violence… against people. But sabotage of property – well, that's another question entirely.  Since the gathering at Standing Rock, anti-protest legislation backed by the fossil fuel industry has swept across the country. What happened? When is environmental protest considered acceptable… and when is it seen as a threat?  This is the first of two episodes exploring the changing landscape of environmental protest in the United States, from Standing Rock to Cop City and beyond. Part II is available on Outside/In wherever you get your podcasts Featuring Chase Iron Eyes, Tokata Iron Eyes, Lesley Wood, Elly Page, and Connor Gibson.

Since February, police officers have been turning unhoused people away at O'Hare International Airport so they won't sleep there. The situation is just one sign of how persistent and pervasive homelessness is in Chicago. Shelter beds are full, and recently arrived asylum seekers are also in need of the social safety net. Reset learns more about the options left for the city's unhoused population and what solutions social service agencies and the city's new administration are considering with guests Elvia Malagón, social justice and wage gap reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, and Ali Simmons, case and outreach worker with the Law Project of the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless.

One silver lining of the COVID-19 pandemic, and its resulting child care crisis, is that an increasing number of countries have passed legislation supporting the child care sector. These include Vietnam, Peru, Argentina, and Bangladesh.On today's episode of the Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women, we will hear about Bangladesh's efforts to increase access to child care, particularly for working parents. Bangladesh lawmakers passed the Daycare Center Act in 2021, and last year, they proposed implementation guidelines.In the first part of the show, host Reena Ninan speaks with Marina Elefante, a lawyer with the World Bank's Women Business and the Law Project. Ninan asks Elefante about the World Bank's involvement with Bangladesh to increase child care there and what this law did to support daycares. Then senior producer Laura Rosbrow-Telem profiles daycare managers in Dhaka, Bangladesh's capital and largest city, to gauge their opinion of the law. Producer Alvah Amit Halder helped report and produce this segment from Dhaka, Bangladesh.

As Native American History Month comes to an end, we wanted to cover an incredible indigenous woman, Madonna Thunder Hawk. Madonna Thunder Hawk is a Native American civil rights activist. She is known for her leadership in the American Indian Movement (or AIM) and for her organization work against the Dakota Access Pipeline among other things. In this episode, we look at her work as an activist, protester, and reformer for Native American Rights and the motivations and controversies surrounding some of her involvement in various occupations. Then we dig a little deeper and consider how her advocacy work has helped preserve and improve the lives of Native women and children in particular. Finally we wrap up with some of the film, television, and books that include Thunder Hawk, mention her ongoing projects, and share a little advice from her to young Native people.   Follow the podcast: Twitter: @BigRepPod Instagram: @BigReputationsPod   Become a Patreon supporter: patreon.com/bigreputationspod   Merch: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/86669619 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hosts: Kimberly Kunkle and Rebecca L.

In February 2022, Stuart and William, co-hosts of the well-established The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast, launched the new mini-series 'Indigenous Voices'. For this next instalment, they were joined by Chase Iron Eyes for an interesting conversation, when they revisited a listener question from Adriana in The Netherlands, which was originally discussed in this podcast episode Direct Action, Does It Work? Chase Iron Eyes is an American Indian activist, attorney, politician, and a member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe. He is a member of the Lakota People's Law Project, and a co-founder of the Native American news website, Last Real Indians https://lastrealindians.com/. Chase talks about the systems of law, economy, government, media, all being designed, and these systems are framed to protect capital and property. He explores with us how corporations can destroy a river, but seemingly not face the ramifications, together with telling us about the history of his people, how they've been labelled as barbarians and heathens. He talks of the defence of Mother Earth and how we have it within ourselves to avert this climate crisis. To continue this new mini-series (Indigenous Voices), the question put to Chase was, "Does direct action get anyone, anywhere?" with a subtle extra question of whether Chase has any examples, from personal experience, of what doors have been opened, or closed due to direct action? More episodes in the Indigenous Voices mini-series will be recorded in due course with Chase and others, often only available to watch/listen by our Indigenous Champion support tier backers, on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/thepeoplescountryside You don't need to be an expert in the subject matter or in indigenous cultures to enjoy our new mini-series. Just a willingness to explore the unknown, the hard truths, the indigenous viewpoint, and see where it takes us. What can we learn from them and what can they learn from us? What can we learn from each other? Join us then for this interesting, and often philosophical episode of the podcast. You'll likely need to watch/listen to this more than once, as there's so much in there, and much learning to be gleaned from Chase's wise words. This podcast's overall themes are nature, philosophy, climate, the human condition, sustainability, and social justice.

Dan Lennington—The Equality Under the Law Project and Deputy Counsel at Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty—joins The Dawn Stensland Show to discuss his client, a disabled Florida contractor, suing the Biden Administration for discrimination based upon race and gender. The Administration earmarked $37 billion to be awarded to “small, disadvantaged business contractors”—which, reportedly, has been read to mean people of color and women. Shouldn't all Americans be eligible to compete for governmental contracts? Why should the federal government be allowed to discriminate? Lennington represents the contractor at the center of the legal battle, Christian Bruckner.

Stuart James is a hip hop artist born & raised in Saint Michael on the Spirit Lake Reservation in North Dakota. Hip hop has always been a voice for the oppressed. Life on the reservation can be ugly & beautiful at the same time and Stuart encourages listeners to find the good in every situation regardless of how difficult life gets. Stuart is a boxing coach, community organizer & songwriter among other titles. Stuart founded the Tiwahe (Family) clothing brand & Tiwahe Day which is a family day for the youth and community of the Spirit Lake reservation.Tiwahe Day consists of a 3 on 3 basketball tournament, live music and free cookout. Stuart hopes to bring this event to more communities in the future whether it is on the reservation or not. Stuart was recently featured in a full length documentary titled Oyate, presented by Films With A Purpose in association with Irrelevant Media & Lakota People's Law Project. Oyate has been nominated for Best Film at the Big Sky Film Festival in Montana and has received the 2022 Audience Choice Award at the North Dakota Environmental Rights Film Festival in North Dakota. Stuart's music helped bring the film an interesting perspective through the form of hip hop which brought a modern voice to the documentary. In the future Stuart hopes for people on every reservation to strive for healthy and positive lives and the music is the driving force of that goal. The big picture is very important but we must also take care of ourselves before we can help anyone. "I know we want change and we want to beat the odds but we should start by cleaning up the trash in our yards". Stuart understands it is a long road to healing but as long as we make steps every day our people will start to come together and work towards a better life for our future generations.

More than 32,000 abortions were performed in Pennsylvania in 2020 and that number may increase, as women from states where last week's Supreme Court decision made abortion illegal, travel to Pennsylvania for the procedure. To be clear, the Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision does not make abortion illegal nationwide. Pennsylvania is one of about 30 states where women can still get an abortion legally, although Dobbs has energized Republican lawmakers and candidates to outlaw or further restrict abortion here and in other states. Smart Talk examines how the court ruling impacts Pennsylvania. Our guest is Amal Bass, Director of Policy and Advocacy with the Women's Law Project.

It's been a while since Harry Miller was with us and since then he has taken on a whole new role as Chairman of the Reclaim Party, which is led by Laurence Fox. There are so many areas and issues which need addressing in the UK and this latest crusade looks directly at legislation. Bad Law Project seeks to highlight laws that are not beneficial to society. Legislations that actually harm our freedoms and effect the way we live our lives. And there is no shortage of bad laws on the statute books in the UK and no shortage of bad interpretations by our police, judiciary and authorities. Join us to hear what it's all about and how you can be a part of this new initiative. Harry Miller is a former police officer and businessman from Lincolnshire. He hit the headlines in 2020 when Humberside Police visited Harry to ‘check his thinking' after a complaint over alleged transphobic tweets he had made. It was recorded on a national database as a non-crime hate incident. Subsequently Harry won a legal challenge against a national policy for forces to record gender-critical views as non-crime “hate incidents”. The Court of Appeal ruled the guidance was wrongly used and it had a “chilling effect” on his freedom of speech. This all led to Harry founding the pressure group ‘We Are Fair Cop' and is he is now one of the leading free speech campaigners in the UK. And now as chairman of The Reclaim Party, he brings the hard-nosed pragmatism that is required to establish Reclaim as a vibrant and sustainable political movement.

In this episode, Ahyoka Atali tells her personal story as an MMIWG2S survivor. If you've ever wondered about the stories behind the countless photos of missing and murdered Indigenous women, this episode offers a window into the dark reality of this ongoing crisis. Because the MMIW epidemic takes many different forms,  Ahyoka's story is quite different from the experiences of other survivors. If you'd like to understand the bigger picture, please check out the last 3 episodes. Erika and Ahyoka delve into the history of genocide on Turtle Island, residential schools, poverty on reservations, the Land Back movement, cultural appropriation, fetishization of Indigenous women, and the connection between the MMIW epidemic and extractive capitalism.If you are a survivor, a family member, or a loved one of someone who has gone missing, we ask that you be gentle with yourself when deciding if you have the capacity to listen to this episode. Also, please be gentle with Ahyoka, who was very brave to share her story with the world. She did this in the hopes that others will open their eyes to this terrible reality so that we might change it and help protect the lives of other Indigenous women, girls, and Two Spirit.MMIW resources :StrongHearts Native Helpline (1-844-7NATIVE) for domestic / dating violence Sovereign Bodies Institute's MMIWG2 & MMIP Organizing ToolkitCoalition to Stop Violence Against Native WomenLakota People's Law Project's MMIW Resource GuideNational Indigenous Women's Resource Center's Safety GuideNational Indigenous Women's Resource Center's Tribal Community Response When a Woman Is Missing: A Toolkit for ActionFollow Ahyoka Atali on Instagram: @beadingismedicineSupport the Cocktails & Capitalism Podcast (https://www.patreon.com/cocktailsandcapitalism)Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/cocktailsandcapitalism)

For the fifth episode of our Rule of Law Season, we speak with journalist and author Anjan Sundaram to help us understand what is happening with the rule of law in Rwanda. The country is often held up as a democratic success story in Africa, as it has achieved stability and prosperity over the last 25 years since the horrific genocide of 1994. But Anjan explains that the real story is very different, and he speaks from very personal experience. He moved to Kigali, Rwanda in 2009 and began teaching journalism to Rwandan reporters – and then, one by one, his students began to run into a series of misfortunes that couldn't have been mere coincidence. Anjan came to realize that he was witnessing the fall of free speech and the rise of President Paul Kagame's dictatorship in Rwanda. Anjan speaks about the impact of Kagame's authoritarian regime on the everyday lives of Rwandans, the brazen ways in which he stifles any dissent, and how western countries have actually emboldened Kagame to consolidate his power. He also discusses the Rwandan government's kidnapping of human rights hero Paul Rusesabagina and the show trial he faces in Kigali, and he explains what it will mean for any critics of President Kagame going forward.    Anjan Sundaram Official Website“Rwanda's Rendition of a Hollywood Hero Confirms the Country's Descent into Dictatorship”, by Anjan Sundaram in Foreign Policy“I Think I May Die Tonight”, excerpt from Bad News by Anjan Sundaram in Foreign PolicyBad News: Last Journalists in a Dictatorship by Anjan SundaramYouTube: Rwanda paid for the flight that led to Paul Rusesabagina arrest – UpFrontThe Daily: A Battle for the Soul of Rwanda A Tribute to Paul Rusesabagina by Congressman Tom Lantos (July 25, 2005) Hotel Rwanda Rusesabagina Foundation - #FreeRusesabaginaThis season of The Keeper was made possible with the generous support of  Ambassador April H.

Over the course of her two campaigns, she has learned a lot about what it means to seek political office as a woman of color and as a political outsider. In this episode, she explores how her military service has informed her leadership as a candidate, and she discusses the challenges of seeking to become the only person of color on an otherwise all-white school board. At the end of the episode, Kiyomi lifts up a local organization called the Law Project of Law Angeles that is working to provide holistic legal services to children and families involved in LA's criminal justice system.

In this episode with Mike Lissner, we talk about the pending PACER lawsuit, monopolies in law, and what the Free Law Project is. We also talk with Mike about why open access to law matters to innovation and access to justice as well as a few ways that courts can help.

The Sylvia Rivera Law Project (SRLP) works to guarantee that all people are free to self-determine their gender identity and expression, regardless of income or race, and without facing harassment, discrimination, or violence. SRLP is a collective organization founded on the understanding that gender self-determination is inextricably intertwined with racial, social and economic justice. Therefore, we seek to increase the political voice and visibility of low-income people and people of color who are transgender, intersex, or gender non-conforming. SRLP works to improve access to respectful and affirming social, health, and legal services for our communities. We believe that in order to create meaningful political participation and leadership, we must have access to basic means of survival and safety from violence.

I think I want a job cleaning mirrors, because it's something I could really see myself doing! Voldemort: Knock Knock Harry Potter:  Who's there? Voldemort:  You know! Harry Potter:  You know who? Voldemort: Exactly! What does a clock do when it's hungry? It goes back four seconds! Oh, and yes, these actually do make me laugh, which probably says something about my terrible sense of humor. -Maddy
