Why haven't there been mass protests against Trump like there were in 2017?Part of the reason is the climate of fear and uncertainty that now proliferates throughout many communities, from student activists on IV league campuses to undocumented migrants.The arrests of pro-Palestine students Mahmoud Khalil, Mohsen Mahdawi and Rumeysa Ozturk among others, and the deportation of hundreds of immigrants to El Salvador, some of whom legal US residents, has left many in shock about the direction of the government and what it intends to do next.So how do activists and organisers continue to speak up without fearing for their own careers, their families and their freedom?This week on The Big Picture Podcast, we speak with Palestinian-American political activist and civil rights advocate Linda Sarsour.Sarsour was the co-chair of the 2017 women's march, which brought millions to the streets in a defiant protest of Donald Trump's first term in office - at the time it was the largest single day protest in US history.In 2020 she published her memoir We're Not Here To Be Bystanders.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

In a time of division, how do we create a sense of collective freedom? It's a question that peace activist, artist and poet Genesis Be grapples with in all her work. Genesis Be has a new book out, People Not Things: Love Poems & Paintings for Humanity, and recently curated the Freedom Rising art show in Brooklyn, New York featuring work by incarcerated artists currently held by the Georgia Department of Corrections. She is the subject of the upcoming film “Mississippi Turning” about the successful years-long effort to remove the Confederate symbol from the state's flag. In this episode taped at the CUNY studios in NYC, we turn to a poet and a preacher. Genesis Be joins Laura Flanders and co-host Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis, the Senior Minister for Public Theology and Transformation at Middle Church, to discuss how to reject stigmas and advance liberation. Genesis Be painted in the studio — for her and us it was a first. “I did my protest about the confederate flag that went viral, I hung a noose around my neck and draped myself in a confederate flag . . . It was a very scary time for me because I got thrown into the fight to change the Mississippi State flag. There were a lot of death threats, but a lot of support during that time.” - Genesis Be “The word freedom is hijacked often by folks: freedom from having to change, freedom from having to admit the humanity of others, freedom from having to widen the tent, freedom from having to let go of their sense of exceptionalism . . . This [conference] was a gathering of like-minded folks sharing a dream of all of us belonging and all of us saving this democracy, interfaith, intergenerational.” - Rev. Dr. Jacqui LewisGuests:•.

It's axiomatic that anything dealing with Palestine is deemed controversial. And if it is Palestinian American women speaking out even more so. Look at the vitriol and death threats directed at Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib. She is Palestinian American and is speaking out as is Maryam Alwan, a Palestinian American student at Columbia. She is a Students for Justice in Palestine organizer in alliance with Jewish Voice for Peace. There is pushback. Asna Tabassum, an American Muslim, was chosen to give the commencement speech at USC until she was canceled after being targeted by pro-Israel groups. The sheer scale of death and destruction in Gaza and the ongoing expansion of illegal colonies and violence in the West Bank and East Jerusalem has shifted the narrative. In communities and campuses across the U.S., Palestinian American women are breaking down Orientalist cliches about being meek and submissive and are actively taking the lead. Recorded at Colorado State University.
As we do most Mondays, we spend today's show on the ongoing genocide that Israel is waging against Palestinians. Today we're in conversation with Linda Sarsour, a Brooklyn-born Palestinian Muslim American activist, author, and community organizer. She is the author of her memoir We Are Not Here to Be Bystanders. We're also joined by Sahar Francis, is the General Director of Ramallah-based Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association, a Palestinian organization providing legal and advocacy support to Palestinian political prisoners in Israeli and Palestinian prisons. She is also an attorney by training. At the end of the hour we're also joined by Liz Arias, a student in her senior year at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, where the student encampment protest negotiated a successful divestment commitment from the school's administration last week. — Subscribe to this podcast: https://plinkhq.com/i/1637968343?to=page Get in touch: lawanddisorder@kpfa.org Follow us on socials @LawAndDis: https://twitter.com/LawAndDis; https://www.instagram.com/lawanddis/ The post Palestine Post w/ Linda Sarsour, Sahar Francis & Liz Arias appeared first on KPFA.

We've all heard the absurd claim that "Jesus was Palestinian" - from Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour to comedian Amer Zahr to protestors at a Santa Claus booth at a Toronto mall. Some people dismiss the claim as complete nonsense. However, the claim is a pernicious one as it seeks to redefine Jewish identity - as a faith, not as a people. By doing so, its aim is to remove any connection Jews have to peoplehood and to the land of Israel.
Grace welcomes Ari Hoffman, editor at The Post Millennial, to the show to talk all things Israel. Across the first world, Hamas sympathizers are mobilizing to protest for a "Free Palestine." Ari and Grace discuss the uptick in unrest at college campuses and why a ceasefire in the Gaza situation should be last on Netanyahu's mind.

Since our last episode on Stop Cop City, signatures of more than 116,000 Atlanta residents were gathered and submitted to the City of Atlanta in support of adding a referendum on the ballot. Atlanta officials have contested the submissions and used tactics such as doxxing signatories and enforcing RICO charges on local organizers and protesters. The case remains in limbo as we await the 11th U.S. Circuit Court's decision on whether or not a deadline extension for signatures was lawful. In this episode of The Coolest Show, Hip Hop Caucus hosted a Stop Cop City press conference during the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's 52nd Annual Legislative Conference. Actors Amanda Seales and Kendrick Sampson, and activists Cliff Albright and Linda Sarsour used their platform to stand in solidarity with Atlanta residents.

Over the past couple of years, The Indypendent News Hour has become the premiere news and public affairs show on WBAI, a listen-sponsored community radio station whose signal beams 90 miles in all directions from atop a Midtown skyscraper. On Nov. 8 2022, we expanded our normal one-hour news show into a five-hour election night special. We not only keep track of key races in New York and nationally but provide a deeper analysis of the issues that have animated the midterms — crime, inflation, abortion rights, the threat to democracy — and ones that haven't been discussed nearly enough: the racist backlash to Black Lives Matter, the demise of local news and the spread of conspiracy theories, the growing power of the billionaire class over the rest of society. Throughout the show, we heard live interviews with NYC voters by roving Indy reporters. Here is the five-hour breakdown.

Ron DeSantis is pioneering is testing out his version of homegrown American fascism as prepares to run for President in 2024. THIRD HOUR —Interview with acclaimed Marxist-feminist-anti-racist scholar Linda Martín Alcoff. Will there be a backlash against the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade? If not, why not? —Interview with Indy Contributing Editor Nicholas Powers about the underlying causes of the public hysteria over crime, the rise of conspiracy theories and why working class people of color are now also starting to move away from supporting the Democrats.

Then the hosts take listeners' advice for the very first time. Few lessons are learned, other than that Jesse is extremely dumb.Links:Herzog on everyone getting the new Rowling book wrong (thread)How Russian Trolls Helped Keep the Women's March Out of Lock Stephttps://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/18/us/womens-march-russia-trump.htmlJesse's article on Louis Farrakhan and the Women's Marchhttps://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/03/is-it-so-hard-to-denounce-louis-farrakhans-anti-semitism.htmlCNN article also addressing this topichttps://edition.cnn.com/2018/02/28/politics/louis-farrakhan-speech/index.htmlWoman's March co-chair Linda Sarsour discusses “waging jihad” against “white supremacists and Islamophobes reigning in the White House”https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/07/07/muslim-activist-linda-sarsours-reference-to-jihad-draws-conservative-wrath/Jesse != smartImage: Russian President Vladimir Putin gives a speech during a ceremony formally annexing four regions of Ukraine Russian troops occupy - Lugansk, Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, at the Kremlin in Moscow on September 30, 2022.

9.22.2022 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Ginni Thomas to Testify for Jan. 6 Committee, Miss. Welfare Fraud Plea, Women's March Movement Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, will testify before the House January 6 Committee. Thomas wants to 'clear up any misconceptions about her work relating to the 2020 election. Remember, there are text messages of her urging the overturning of the election results. We'll break it all down. I'll talk to the first black man to secure a major party nominee for Arkansas governor. Chris Jones will join us tonight to discuss his campaign going head to head with Republican Sarah Huckabee Sanders. One of the folks connected to the Mississippi welfare fraud case involving Brett Favre pleads guilty. Could that mean he's about to tell all? The New York Times published an article saying Russian trolls were behind the demise of the Women's Movement. Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour will join us to tell us what that is all about. For the first time in 40 years, a Philadelphia police officer goes on trial for murder and gets convicted. We'll tell you about the cop who killed an unarmed black man. A former North Carolina Deputy Police Chief was tired of seeing deadly interaction between citizens and law enforcement. So when she retired, she created an organization designed to give people the tools to survive when they get stopped by those who swore to protect them. And Howard University's College of Medicine makes history with its new dean.

Sarah interrupts Madame Nancy in the middle of a seance, but hey, no better time for a podcast. After a brief discussion of their top five liquids (inspired by a recent interview with Malcolm Gladwell), they turn toward a 4000-word New York Times story about how Russian trolls might have influenced the implosion of the Women's March. Nancy thinks the story whitewashes the leaders' excesses and prejudices, particularly the anti-semitism of Linda Sarsour. Sarah finds the prospect of outside forces stoking civic discord legitimately worrisome, but both agree the Women's March fell apart because of in-fighting over ideology, money, and mismanagement. We turn toward a story in the Atlantic that argues against sex segregation in sports, making some head-scratching assertions about girls' ability to compete with boys. Sarah thinks it's yet another failure to balance equal opportunity with biological difference, while Nancy points out that even Serena Williams admitted to David Letterman she'd lose every game to tennis champ Andy Murray since men were faster and stronger — none of which makes women inherently inferior, since women have other assets. Have we mentioned we love breasts?

This week, Basil ( https://twitter.com/basii___ ) is joined by Abdullah ( https://twitter.com/avdullahyousef ) to discuss the American Muslim community. We ask ourselves why people like Linda Sarsour, Ilhan Omar, Mehdi Hasan and the like are deemed its representatives, why American Muslims are in this unholy alliance with the left, and how we can shake the American Muslim community out of this stupor that is facilitated by the commie hajabi.
