Free Speech Week was just before the election, but Andrew and Jerry engage in a belated celebration. Joined by Patrick Maines, former President and CEO of the Media Institute, they break down the importance of rights to free speech, the erosion of those rights over time, and the challenges to free speech in 2024 and beyond. They talk about Patrick's career, the work of the Media Institute, and those who are championing free speech currently.After Patrick leaves, Andrew and Jerry talk a little more about the subject, and then turn to current events - talking about the nomination of Matt Gaetz for Attorney General (as well as other prominent Trump picks), the predictable caterwauling from the left and Never Trumpers, and why it's important for people to "keep their powder dry".
In this episode, we sit down with Diji Aderogba, a pioneering Nigerian filmmaker known for his powerful, thought-provoking narratives. Since his filmmaking journey began in 2016, after graduating from the Mainframe Film and Media Institute, Diji has been dedicated to bringing social consciousness to the big screen. Under the mentorship of African cinema legend Tunde Kelani, Diji learned that film is more than just entertainment—it's a mirror reflecting society's struggles and strengths. His breakout documentary 'Hidden Euphoria', which was nominated for an AMVCA award in 2020, captures the often-unseen resilience of Nigeria's Makoko community. This film marked the beginning of Diji's mission to tell the stories that matter.Diji's storytelling prowess continued to blossom in 2021 with the release of 'About a Boy', his debut feature film that won the Audience Choice Award at Nollywood Week in Paris. In this psychological thriller, Diji explores complex human emotions and mental health—a theme that resonates deeply with audiences who seek connection and understanding through cinema. For Diji, 'About a Boy' is a journey into the minds of people who battle inner turmoil, and his hope is that viewers come away feeling seen and perhaps even inspired to seek healing. He shares with us the challenges and triumphs of bringing this story to life, alongside his passion for using film as a voice for the voiceless.Beyond film, Diji has embraced social media to amplify his work and connect with his audience. He's not only a storyteller but also a brand influencer, blending his skills in street photography and digital marketing. His collaboration with Infinix, a popular smartphone brand, started from a simple tweet expressing his interest in working with a mobile phone company. A few retweets later, Diji had his partnership with Infinix, showcasing his keen eye for visual art in a way that bridges film and digital media. We delve into how he uses his platform to not just promote his work but also to inspire other young creatives who may be looking for unconventional ways to share their art.In our conversation, Diji reflects on the importance of his roots in Abeokuta, his artistic influences from childhood, and the role of culture in his work. His recent web series, *When Are We Getting Married?*, produced by #Filmtrybe, delves into modern relationships, sparking debates around marriage, partnership, and compromise. Diji shares the excitement of collaborating with writer Ife Olujuyigbe, whose script brings relatable, raw conversations to life on screen. Together, they've created a show that encourages viewers to question their own beliefs and societal norms. Join us as we explore Diji's journey, his vision, and the power of conscious filmmaking in today's world.Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

The Agog Immersive Media Institute officially launched today by Grist-founder Chip Giller and philanthropist / investor Wendy Schmit. They describe Agog as "a groundbreaking initiative at the intersection of technology, communications, and social impact. Agog, a philanthropic organization, will help creators and nonprofit leaders harness the power of extended reality (XR) technologies to spur positive social transformation, opening new avenues for empathy, understanding, and activism." I had a chance to get a bit more context on Agog from co-founder Giller as well as advisor / consultant Amy Seidenwurm, who ran Meta's VR for Good initiative for six years. We talk about their five main areas of focus that include social justice and equity, high-impact storytelling/world-building, research, education and outreach, and advocacy and policy. They've been operating in stealth for a number of months already having been involved in a number of projects, and I'm really quite excited to see how they can help fill in some of the gaps that are needed within the growing XR ecosystem as more and more non-profits and social change organizations start to wrap their minds around how to integrate immersive media within their missions. Be sure to check out the Agog.org website for more information, and check it out in the Quest browser to see the first WebXR and AR iterations for what they intend to develop into a fully-spatial brand. It's not launching with full iOS or visionOS support yet, and I am able to see the AR components on Android, but it isn't as fully interactive on Quest yet. Still early days for WebXR, but keep an eye on how they continue to develop their website with more immersive features. This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon.

"How do we create a better free speech culture? How do students learn things like the first amendment in school and in their peer groups? What if at sports events before we sing the National Anthem we recite the first amendment?" First amendment specialist Stuart Brotman joins the podcast, new book in hand. The book, called The First Amendment Lives On: Conversations Commemorating Hugh M. Hefner's Legacy of Enduring Free Speech and Free Press Values, is a series of interviews between Brotman and some of the leading free speech figures of the past half century. From Geoffrey R. Stone to Floyd Abrams to Nadine Strossen and others, Brotman paints a picture of some of the free speech pioneers of recent history. What is the state of free speech today? What is the difference between free speech in a legal sense and a culture of free speech? What are universities doing -- or not doing -- to protect that which we hold sacred? And what does the future hold, as we look to exercise the freedoms of the first amendment in new and robust ways? If you like what we do, please support the show.

The future of consumer and privacy protection may involve the broader concept of digital trust. Governments and companies both have a critical role to play—if they are willing. SPEAKERS Wayne Stacy, Stuart Brotman Wayne Stacy 00:00 Welcome, everyone to the Berkeley Center for Law and technologies expert series Podcast. I'm the Executive Director of BCLT, and your host, Wayne Stacy. Today, we have another discussion with Professor Stuart Brotman. If you recall, Professor Brotman is a professor of Media Management and Law at the University of Tennessee, and also a Distinguished Fellow at the Media Institute. Professor Brotman is pioneering a new model for addressing privacy issues, and addressing the international interaction between the privacy rules that are developing. So Stuart, we've talked about the world gravitating toward an enforcement model for privacy. That really is stick based in a way from an incentive model. That's carrot based. And then we've talked about the issues that arise from multi jurisdictional oversight of privacy here in the US. So kind of in light of what we've already discussed, what do you think's the single biggest unaddressed issue in digital privacy policy today? Stuart Brotman 01:05 Wayne, thanks for inviting me to be here today. So I think the probably biggest unaddressed issue, but one that I guess you could characterize as the forest instead of the trees, is the notion of digital trust. Ultimately, digital trust is the goal that I think digital privacy legislation or regulation is trying to achieve. But I think a lot of the discussion really focuses at the outset, on what are the regulatory or legislative approaches, as opposed to stepping back and looking at digital trust in a much more broad and holistic way. The other aspect that's interesting about digital trust, is that it's actually measurable. So we have a number of surveys that are being conducted by highly respected organizations, which help us track track perceptions of how consumers and users feel about the amount of trust they have for various digital services. So for example, Edelman, which is a worldwide public relations firm every year, they come out with a trust index. And that shows how various institutions including big tech is perceived by the public. And then also, the professional services firm KPMG, has conducted a series of war focused data privacy surveys that focus on this area of digital trust, I think net net, when you look at some of the surveys that are being done, you see that there is a large gap between the public terms of their perception of what they trust and how they trust. And obviously, on the other side, the commercial providers of digital services. So for example, the KPMG survey of 2020, which was the latest one, the majority of people in that survey, this trusted commercial provision of collection, storage and transmission of digital data. So we understand fundamentally, there is a trust problem. And when we talk about digital privacy, that tends to be ways that we try to address the problem. But I think the underlying issue really hasn't been focused on in the way that it should be. Wayne Stacy 03:43 We'll to start I want to take a step back, because if you read the the average newspaper, it seems that the term digital privacy and digital trust are the terms digital privacy and digital trust are, are used interchangeably. And I don't think that's necessarily the correct way the industry is using those terms. So can you explain a little bit about the difference between digital trust and digital privacy? Stuart Brotman 04:11 Well, I think digital trust, as I said, is really the broader term. And digital privacy

Using Europe as the model, privacy regulations worldwide are taking a strong turn toward punishment-based regulatory models. But is that the way that American privacy laws should go? What about offering a little carrot instead of all stick? More on Stuart Brotman. SPEAKERS Wayne Stacy, Stuart Brotman Wayne Stacy 00:00 Welcome, everyone to the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology's Expert Series Podcast. I'm the Executive Director of BCLT, Wayne Stacy. Recently, there's been significant criticism of tech companies and a lot of call for government regulation, especially in the area of data privacy. Depending on who you ask, tech companies are either out of control, or they're being unfairly blamed for the behavior of their users. So the question is, where's tech policy going and what is a healthy way to analyze these options? To guide us through this important discussion today, we have one of the nation's leading experts on tech policy development. Stewart Brotman, He's professor of Media Management and law at the University of Tennessee, a Distinguished Fellow at the Media Institute, and not a prerequisite for being on the BCLT podcast, but definitely a nice add. He's a Berkeley Law grad. So Stewart, thank you for joining us. Stuart Brotman 01:00 Thanks, Wayne. It's a pleasure to be here. Wayne Stacy 01:03 Well, Stuart, I want to just start at the highest level possible. You know, a lot of times when we talk about tech policy and tech regulation, people just immediately jump into the minutiae. But at a 30,000 foot level, tell us how effective the tech industry has been in helping to shape the digital privacy policy at the national level? Stuart Brotman 01:26 Well, I think a lot of it has been reactive, it'd be somewhat critical, I would say. And this is not different than virtually every other industry that operates in Washington. Typically, it operates reflexively, meaning that it waits for Congress to take a lead in the area and then offer some pushback. I think the tech area is quite different, just because it's so dynamic. And developments happen so quickly, that Congress clearly is not in the position to have an overall framework for tech policy, and often it needs to be educated and guided by the industry first. So I think there needs to be a much better interplay if we wanted to think of it as being proactive versus reactive, I would say at the 30,000 foot level, my perception is that I think the tech policy area has been quite reactive. And certainly the industry has great lobbying resources. But I think most of them have been directed at how to react to specific developments as opposed to this much larger area. Here's why it's important from a political standpoint, as we all saw the election returns from this week, and where the tea leaves seem to be guiding us, and looks highly likely that we are going to not have a unified White House, House and Senate under democratic control, beginning in 2023. And obviously, 2022 is an election year. What that means is that I think many of the themes and perspectives can change quite dramatically. And if I were to have one 30 thousand foot recommendation for the tech policy community, it's to begin to think of strategic areas of development in the new Congress in the 118th Congress. At this point, I think it's safe to say there probably is not going to be any federal privacy legislation that will be enacted in the 117th Congress, and it doesn't look like the Biden administration is going to be pushing any specific legislation. So that means that we're going to be deferring this for at least another

NPH S4E21: Nikki and Brian Weaver of Portland Playhouse and Bianca McCarthy of ECHO Theatre by Media Institute for Social Change
A newspaper editor is recovering from surgery after being nearly assassinated in Lesotho for an article he published about a high profile army commander. Meanwhile in South Africa, journalists claim victory in their censorship row with the state broadcaster, the SABC. The truth is mightier than the guns of darkness, a top rights group has hit out in condemning an assassination attempt on the editor of the Lesotho Times and Sunday Express. Lloyd Mutungamiri was attacked by two unknown gunmen on 9 July, in apparent retaliation for his article about an alleged exit package for the country’s army commander, Lieutenant General Tlali Kamoli. His shooting came after a tough week for him and his company. Earlier he and his colleague, Keiso Mohloboli were arrested by police and urged to reveal their sources. Mohloboli has now fled Lesotho and gone into exile. "This is a matter that we urge our government to investigate thoroughly," Tsebo Matsasa, the director of the Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA) in Lesotho told RFI. "In the absence of an investigation, there's a lot of uncertainty in our country, especially among media practitioners.” Those practicing the art of irreverence are the most worried, which happens to be the case of the Lesotho Times. For years, the independent paper has openly criticized the government and army, but now its irreverent tone is under scrutiny. "When you get to the point of assassination it says that you've rattled the bars a little too much," William Bird, the director of the NGO, Media Monitoring Africa, told RFI on the phone from South Africa. It rattled the US State Department, which issued a sharp warning to the Lesotho government to refrain from intimidation. The country's laws however make that difficult. Colonial hangover "One of the things common to the Southern African region is that despite many countries having legitimate and democratic governments coming into place as they acquired independence at various times, what is common among most of them is that they've retained former colonial laws," explains Bird. "So what we're dealing with very often are still colonial hangovers." The CEO of the Lesotho Times, Basildon Peta, would know a thing or two about headaches. He's been charged with criminal defamation andcrimen injuria because of a column he wrote. "These laws were last used in 1912!" says Tsebo Matsasa. "When it comes to a charge like crimen injuria [committing a crime], the challenge we have is that we don't establish the nature of the charge." "And it's clear why, criminal defamation is a useful tool to keep people in check,” says Bird. He welcomes recent moves by the ruling ANC party to remove criminal defamation from South Africa’s laws. "We're making slow progress, but it always seems like it's two steps forward, and sometimes three steps back." Censorship This frustration is equally felt among journalists in South Africa. Eight employees of the South African Broadcasting Corporation, SABC, have been engaged in a long-standing dispute with their corporation over a controversial decision to ban footage of violent protests. "Our Chief Operating Officer [Hlaudi Motsoeneng] began issuing verbal orders, and one of them was that we're not allowed to report negatively on president Zuma anymore,” Suna Venter, a senior producer at SABC told RFI. Venter and seven of her colleagues were sacked for not towing the line. But she says that self-censorship would have been counter-productive: "When 21 million people rely on the SABC exclusively for their news, if you censor that, you're in big trouble. And if you censor that with one week to go before the elections, you're in even deeper trouble." On Wednesday, SABC dropped its appeal against a Labour court forcing it to take back Venter and her colleagues, meaning they should be available to cover the 3 August elections.
Find Your Dream Job: Insider Tips for Finding Work, Advancing your Career, and Loving Your Job
Many job seekers are interested in a nonprofit career as a vehicle for rewarding, socially-impactful work. But landing a nonprofit job isn’t easy. Competition is fierce – particularly for the most desirable positions. And the nonprofit sector itself is sometimes quite insular, with the the most plum jobs going to well-connected candidates. Finding a nonprofit job requires a strategic approach, solid networking, and a clear understanding of what you have to offer social impact organizations. On February 28, 2016 Mac Prichard, founder and publisher of Mac’s List, explored these issues on the Non Profit Hour, a radio program produced by the Portland-based Media Institute for Social Change. Mac discussed the history of Mac’s List, the unique challenges of finding rewarding work, and his own experience as a job seeker. He also shared some of his favorite work-themed music. (Spoiler alert: Mac loves Dolly Parton!) In this bonus episode you will learn: Why connection is the key – organizations hire candidates they know trust How to recognize and communicate the value of what you have to offer others Why online job boards are only a small part of the job hunt How hiring is a two way street – for the potential employee and the employer Thank you for listening to Find Your Dream Job.
