In this eye-opening conversation, therapist Rachel Tuchman dives deep into the way we talk about food, body image, and health in the frum community — and why it matters more than we think. From Yom Tov tables filled with diet talk to the surge of GLP-1 weight-loss injections, Rachel explores how these messages shape our children's self-image, strain our relationships, and fuel anxiety. She challenges the obsession with quick fixes and encourages a shift toward true health — meaningful connection, joy around food, and emotional well-being. A must-listen for anyone who wants to build a healthier, happier family culture.

Send us a textCatch and release? Chris Scott now knows the process firsthand. The rookie MPP for Sault Ste. Marie was arrested Sunday night for alleged spousal abuse and released on bail the following day. He is charged with one count of assault and one count of assault with a weapon — the weapon being “a high chair,” according to court documents. (None of the allegations have been tested in court and Scott is presumed innocent until proven guilty).The 35-year-old was promptly booted from Doug Ford's PC caucus and is now an Independent MPP (at least for the time being). Although the NDP is demanding his resignation, Scott has yet to answer questions about the criminal case or his future as a politician.Should he step down? Can fellow MPPs force him to resign? And what do we know about Chris Scott, a one-time senior Ford staffer handpicked by the Premier to run in February's provincial election?Joining us on tonight's Closer Look are two Village Media journalists who covered the breaking story: Jessica Smith Cross, editor-in-chief at The Trillium, and Kenneth Armstrong, a reporter at SooToday.You can watch the full episode in the above YouTube video. Earlier this year, Scott sat down with SooToday for a one-on-one interview during the provincial election race.Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, and produced by Derek Turner, Closer Look is a new daily podcast that goes way beyond the headlines with insightful, in-depth conversations featuring our reporters and editors, leading experts, key stakeholders and big newsmakers.Fresh episodes drop every Monday to Friday at 7 p.m. right in your local news feed — and on the show's dedicated website: closerlookpodcast.ca.

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we've got news overload. It was a tough call determining what to talk about on the show today, but first and foremost we have to separate the wheat from the chaff on the killing of an American pundit. After that, we're going to dig into more local drama by asking what the recent push against school boards is about and then we're going to talk to the MPP from a neighbouring riding. This Thursday, September 18, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: The Aftermath. Last Wednesday, conservative organizer and provocateur Charlie Kirk was killed on the campus of a Utah college, and what followed was recriminations on political violence, calls to sanction certain left-wing groups on a whim, the cancellation of people who dared to quote Kirk's rhetoric, and the search for a connection to someone in the trans community so that they can take the blame. Can this get any worse? Board to Death. In the last few months, the Ontario government and Minister of Education Paul Calandra have sought to undermine public trust in the school board system. The Magic 8-Ball says to expect some big changes to the administration of Ontario's schools when the legislature returns next month, but while we can all agree that trustee trips to Italy are an extravagance, is the government thinking about efficiency or are they thinking about politics? Shades of Rae. Speaking of the Ontario government, they've got a lot on their plate these days; from the ongoing economic impacts from the Trump Trade War that continues to affect Ontario workers, to the needs of all sectors for more support from the arts to healthcare. From the government benches this week, we will be joined by Perth-Wellington MP Matthew Rae to talk about those issues, and working across party line to move progress forward on Guelph's new hospital. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

This is a bonus episode of the audio of a Breastcancer.org ⁠⁠webinar⁠⁠. Making decisions about breast reconstruction is personal. Hours of research can go into your choice about restoring the shape and size of one or both breasts. It's also important to think carefully about how you want to look and feel in your body.  Implants, flap reconstruction, fat grafting, going flat, immediate or delayed, breast surgeons, plastic surgeons, risks, benefits, costs — there's a lot to consider. Whether you're planning for reconstruction, having a corrective procedure, or recovering from surgery, watch this webinar to learn from experienced plastic surgeons.  Marisa Weiss, MD, interviewed Clara Lee, MD, MPP, FACS and Sarosh Zafar, MD to ask them questions from our community about reconstruction decisions after lumpectomy and mastectomy, expectations for the procedures and recovery time, side effects, symmetry, nipple reconstruction, and much more.  Read more about breast reconstruction.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Daniel Levy, President of the U.S./Middle East Project (USMEP). They discuss Levy's argument that the way that Israel withdrew Israeli settlements from Gaza in 2005 set the stage for today's genocide; as Levy put it in a recent +972 Magazine piece, the current Israeli paradigm is "not just separating from the Palestinians, relegated to shrinking Bantustans, but annihilating and erasing them." Moor and Levy also discuss the impact of Israel's attacks in Qatar this week both in the near and longterm, the need for Netanyahu to formally deny Israeli involvement in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and shifting political approaches to Israel/Palestine.  Daniel Levy is the President of the U.S./Middle East Project (USMEP), which emphasizes the Palestine-Israel issue alongside regional conflicts, trends and geopolitics. From 2012 to 2016, Levy was Director for the Middle East and North Africa at the European Council on Foreign Relations. Prior to that he was a senior Fellow and Director of the New America Foundation's Middle East Taskforce in Washington D.C. and a Senior Fellow at The Century Foundation in New York. Levy was a Senior Advisor in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office and to Justice Minister Yossi Beilin during the Government of Ehud Barak (1999-2001). He was a member of the official Israeli delegation to the Israel/Palestine peace talks at Taba under Barak and at Oslo B under Yitzhak Rabin (1994-95). Levy is a founder and Advisory Board member of Diaspora Alliance (combatting antisemitism and its conflation), a Council Member of the ECFR, and serves on the board of the European Middle East Project. He is a former Trustee of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund in New York and of the New Israel Fund, a co-founder of J Street, and a founding Editor of the Middle East Channel at foreignpolicy.com.  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere.

"Something's Brewing" is a laid-back podcast hosted by MPP student Wynsey, where conversations flow freely-just like the drinks. In each episode, a member of the Blavatnik School community joins over a favourite beverage from home to share personal stories, career reflections, and the life that happens beyond policy. In this episode, Wynsey chats with Julia, an MPP student from Uganda, about the “why” that drives her. From overcoming challenges in accessing education to finding her voice as a young advocate, Julia speaks candidly about the experiences that shaped her journey. With honesty and heart, she reflects on her childhood, her path into advocacy, and the making of the strong woman she is today.

A local MPP calls for a Crown Royal boycott following news of a coming plant closure, the OPP arrested three suspected impaired drivers within 12 hours, and the Windsor Symphony's music director passes away. All the evening headlines on the go.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Marianne Hirsch, Professor emerita of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University. Professor Hirsch made news recently when she withdrew from classroom teaching because Columbia instituted the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism, telling the Associated Press that “‘A university that treats criticism of Israel as antisemitic and threatens sanctions for those who disobey is no longer a place of open inquiry…I just don't see how I can teach about genocide in that environment.”' In this podcast, Ahmed Moor and Professor Hirsch discuss the IHRA definition of antisemitism and its impact on teaching and learning as well as the changes in academia and the changing balance of influence and power between administrators and scholars. Digging into Prof. Hirsch's areas of expertise, they discuss genocide scholarship and Germany, looking at the achievements and failures of German “memory culture” and comparing the Holocaust, the Nakba, and the genocide in Palestine today. Through a look at the Genocide and Holocaust Studies Crisis Network, which Prof. Hirsch helped to found, they discuss how scholars are trying to use their expertise in fascism, mass atrocities, and political violence to name, explain, and counter the rise in authoritarianism and ethnonationalism around the world.  Marianne Hirsch is William Peterfield Trent Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University and Professor in the Institute for Research on Women, Gender, and Sexuality. She is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a former  President of the Modern Language Association of America. She was born in Romania and educated at Brown University, where she received her BA/MA and Ph.D. degrees. Hirsch's work combines feminist theory with memory studies, particularly the transmission of memories of violence across generations. Her recent books include School Photos in Liquid Time: Reframing Difference, co-authored with Leo Spitzer  (University of Washington Press, 2020), and the co-edited volumes Imagining Everyday Life: Engagements with Vernacular Photography (Steidl, 2020) and Women Mobilizing Memory (Columbia University Press, 2019).  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere. He earned a BA at the University of Pennsylvania and an MPP at Harvard University. Original music by Jalal Yaquoub.

With over half of all Medicare beneficiaries now enrolled in MA plans, the program faces unprecedented scrutiny from lawmakers, regulators, and beneficiaries themselves.

They explore how the Trump administration is approaching MA reform through payment adjustments, increased oversight, and technological innovation.Graham and Patil delve into hot-button issues driving the reform conversation: prior authorization practices that frustrate both providers and patients, marketing tactics that have drawn Department of Justice attention, and the accuracy of provider directories that directly impact beneficiary access to care.

La Tertulia de los Miércoles con Gonzalo Baroni, Leonardo Costa, Miguel Fernández Galeano y Teresa Herrera. *** La discusión en torno a la propuesta de gravar al 1% más rico de la población sigue generando polémica en la interna del Frente Amplio. El ministro de Trabajo y Seguridad Social, Juan Castillo, defendió la iniciativa y cuestionó declaraciones de la senadora Bettiana Díaz (MPP). En una entrevista con La Diaria Radio, la senadora había relativizado la dimensión del debate al señalar que el eventual tributo era impulsado por “tres de los 17 senadores” del oficialismo: Óscar Andrade, Constanza Moreira y Gustavo González. Entrevistado ayer en el streaming Campaña del Miedo, Castillo, secretario general del Partido Comunista, le respondió. “Con esa teoría, entonces, no hagamos nada mejor porque molestamos menos, pero tampoco vamos a estar cambiando la realidad del país”, apuntó. Castillo defendió la propuesta, lanzada originalmente por el Pit-Cnt, que plantea gravar con un 1% el Patrimonio de los sectores de mayor poder adquisitivo para financiar políticas públicas en favor de los sectores más pobres, entre ellas el abatimiento de la pobreza infantil y juvenil. “Colocar en el debate si los más ricos, los millonarios, tienen que aportar el 1% de su riqueza para contemplar las demandas de los más pobres, nos genera problema. Fijate vos qué tan lejos estamos de la posibilidad de seguir avanzando en una discusión que hay que dar”, remarcó. Además, Castillo agregó: “Capaz que no es la mejor propuesta, pero estamos dispuestos a escuchar y debatir los contenidos de otros”. Por su parte, Díaz reafirmó su postura sobre los compromisos asumidos por el FA durante la campaña electoral, entre ellos la decisión de no crear nuevos impuestos. “Esto no es algo que uno se entera ahora. De hecho, Yamandú (Orsi) llegó incluso a plantear que no iba a aumentar impuestos en el debate presidencial”, señaló. No obstante, la senadora reconoció que el FA debe reflexionar sobre su estrategia tributaria. “Yo creo que el FA se tiene que plantear discutir cuál va a ser la estrategia en términos de la política tributaria. Si es necesaria una nueva reforma, una actualización de la reforma tributaria. Eso es parte de lo que nosotros hemos discutido”, dijo.

This one starts with a dodgy lane choice, a Starbucks coffee, and a misjudged underpass. As always. I'm back in the Land Rover — which might be its final podcast outing before it finds a new home — and today's episode is a rambling, reflective road trip through customer service, creative resilience, and the rapidly growing presence of AI in our industry. The day started badly. Cold shower (thanks British Gas), broken editing software, and a head full of terabytes. But it ended with a reminder of why kindness, craftsmanship, and conversation still matter. A haircut from someone I've known for 18 years. A deep chat with the owner of Michel Engineering while he lovingly took apart my ancient-but-beautiful record deck — the very same design featured in A Clockwork Orange and owned by Steve Jobs, no less. And then... a disappointing interaction with a distracted barista and a headset-wearing drive-thru operator. Same building, worlds apart. Customer service, it turns out, is alive and well — just not always where you'd expect it. But the main theme of this episode is AI. Not the doom-and-gloom kind, but the real stuff: the tools I'm already using, how they're reshaping our workflows, and how they might be reshaping entire economies. It's not AI that's coming for your job — it's the photographer who learns to harness it. We talk about: AI tools I already use (like EVOTO, Imagine AI, ChatGPT, and XCi) Using AI as a teaching assistant, sub-editor, and productivity coach The real-world implications of AI-generated ads, coding layoffs, and what it means for creatives Plans for a new AI section on masteringportraitphotography.com And if you hang in there until the end, I'll tell you about a girl named Dory, a gutsy 12-year-old contortionist, and the new edition of Mastering Portrait Photography — complete with fresh images, a decade of stories, and a very special launch offer. So pop on your headphones, admire the wheat fields if you've got them, and come along for the ride. Spoiler: there's C3PO's eye in here too. Yes, really.  

"Something's Brewing" is a laid-back podcast hosted by MPP student Wynsey, where conversations flow freely—just like the drinks. In each episode, a member of the Blavatnik School community joins over a favorite beverage from home to share personal stories, career reflections, and the life that happens beyond policy.In this episode, Wynsey sits down with Mamiko and Shinnosuke, two MPP students from Japan, who reflect on the trials and tribulations of their lives, as well as the lesser known formative personal experiences that shape the policymakers that they are today. They delve into deeply personal histories - from the profound impact of a cherished mentor whose memory they carry forward, to unique life experiences such as living on a remote island, working for a delivery company, and supporting a community's evacuation during a volcanic eruption.

FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) Executive Director Stefanie Fox about the evolution of JVP as a Jewish anti-Zionist organization in the US, strategies for growing the movement, and navigating uncomfortable coalition partners, including on the political far-right. They also discuss how JVP thinks thinks about accountability to Palestinian partners, how it approaches electoral work and the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement (BDS), and how to counter the ubiquitous claim that US bases its support for Israel on a commitment to protecting Jewish people rather than on U.S. geopolitical and corporate interests.  Stefanie Fox, MPH (she/her) is the Executive Director of Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), a U.S. based, grassroots membership organization mobilizing Jewish communities into the movement for Palestinian rights and freedom and towards a vision of Judaism beyond Zionism.

FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Palestinian American journalist and writer Jennifer Zaccharia about the treatment of Palestinian journalists and reporting by Israel and Western media, building on Jen's recent Boston Review piece,”Can Anyone Hear Me? Palestinians are only allowed to exist if we don't cause discomfort for those who seek to erase us.” They discuss the lack of accountability for Israel killing Jen's cousin, Shireen Abu Akleh, in 2022; how Western media elides truth and suppresses information in reporting on Palestine; and the choices of words, including descriptors for sexual violence, that Western media uses to describe some victims. Jennifer Zacharia is a lawyer and writer who holds a JD from Columbia Law School, and an MIA from Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs. A graduate of the University of California at Berkeley, she has worked as a journalist and with various human and civil rights organizations.

This episode takes a step back from policy topics to dive into a pervasive phenomenon in public service work: constant busyness and burnout. Ronan Harrington, an international speaker, expert on burnout and resilience, and MPP alumnus, joins MPP student Nate for a conversation on why burnout is so pervasive in public service careers and what we can do about it.The conversation explores:• Why is overwhelmed and burnout a particular problem in public service?• What are the root psychological factors that lead to constant busyness and burnout?• Is overwhelm and exhaustion just necessary in high impact careers?• Can technology and AI save us?• What are practical strategies to manage overwhelm when we can't control the demands placed on us?

Balancing Mission and Margin in Healthcare: A Candid Conversation with Dr. Ben Schwartz In this episode, host Stacey Richter engages in a deep dive with Dr. Ben Schwartz to explore the phrase 'No Margin, No Mission' and its practical implications in the healthcare industry.  They discuss the complex relationship between profitability and mission-driven care, the challenges of value-based care, and the role of dyad leadership. The episode emphasizes the importance of transparency, regulatory measures, and trust in fostering a balance between mission and margin. Along the way, Dr. Schwartz shares insights from his new role at Commons Clinic and addresses broader systemic issues like regulatory capture and the subjective nature of defining value in healthcare. === LINKS ===

In this Take Two episode of Relentless Health Value, host Stacey Richter reflects on her conversation with Dr. John Lee to explore the challenging intersection between mission and margin in healthcare.  They discuss the nuances of cognitive dissonance faced by healthcare professionals, particularly when organizational priorities conflict with patient care. Dr. Lee shares insights on finding a sense of mission within the constraints of the current healthcare system, emphasizing the importance of incremental improvements, team-based care, and peer support.  The conversation also highlights real-world examples of systemic issues and practical advice on how individuals can contribute to meaningful change without feeling demoralized. This episode is part of an ongoing series addressing critical topics in healthcare, and listeners are encouraged to tune in next week for further discussions. === LINKS ===

Despite decades of effort and innovation since the groundbreaking To Err is Human report over 25 years ago, preventable harm in healthcare persists, and violence against healthcare workers continues to rise. With record understaffing, burnout, mandatory overtime, and mounting documentation demands, the pressure to provide safe care has never been higher nor the stakes more urgent. In this first episode of our new series focusing on safety in healthcare, we explore a bold shift toward "total systems safety" with two leaders at the forefront of this movement who know these challenges all too well. Patricia McGaffigan, RN, MS, CPPS, Senior Advisor for Patient and Workforce Safety at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and President of the Certification Board for Professionals in Patient Safety, and Donald Berwick, MD, MPP, FRCP, President Emeritus and Senior Fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and former Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Together, they continue to shape national safety efforts including IHI's Safer Together: National Action Plan to Advance Patient Safety the first public-private collaboration of its kind. Spearheaded by McGaffigan and bringing together 27 major organizations that had never collaborated before. The plan aims to restructure the very foundation of healthcare, building safety into every level of the system around four interlocking pillars. Leadership & Governance: Strong, visible leadership and policies that make safety a strategic priority. Workforce Safety & Well-Being: Protecting nurses and healthcare workers – physically and mentally – so they can care safely for others. Patient & Family Engagement: Partnering with patients and family caregivers as co-designers of safe care. Learning Systems: Creating feedback loops and continuous improvement so lessons from one hospital spread everywhere.   At the heart of this movement is a truth long understood by nurses: safety is not a checklist or a policy, it's a culture, a commitment, and a collective responsibility. As Patricia McGaffigan reminds us, “You can't have patient safety if you don't have a safe workforce.” And as Don Berwick warns, “The illusion that safety is a matter of individual effort is one of the most toxic notions in the whole safety enterprise. It is we, not me.” Nurses have always led by example, holding space for healing while navigating broken systems. Now, their leadership is essential in building the future of healthcare safety: one that protects not only patients, but the people who care for them. Where healthcare is not only safer, but also is a culture that ensures we're all Safer Together.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with author Benjamin Balthaser about the history of Jewish anti-Zionism, its current forms in the US - whether it emerges from a more religious Jewish tradition or a more socialist, internationalist tradition - and what it means for the emerging Democratic socialist coalition in the US. Benjamin Balthaser is Associate Professor of Multi-Ethnic U.S. Literature at Indiana University, South Bend. His newest book, Citizens of the Whole World: Anti-Zionism and the Cultures of the American Jewish Left, will be released in July 2025 by Verso Press. He recently published "The Outcasts of Zion" (Boston Review Spring 2025) about how "[t]he manufacturing of Jewish Zionist consensus lies at the heart of American liberalism's identity crisis."  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere.

El Tribunal de Cuentas de la República (TCR) observó, por mayoría, la compra de la estancia María Dolores, un campo de más de 4.400 hectáreas ubicado en Florida que el Instituto Nacional de Colonización (INC) se propone adquirir por 32 millones de dólares. La decisión fue tomada con los votos del presidente del TCR, Francisco Gallinal, del Partido Nacional, y de los tres ministros designados por blancos y colorados: Darwin Machado, Linder Reyes y Álvaro Ezcurra. Votaron en contra los tres representantes del Frente Amplio: Miguel Aumento, Enrique Cabrera y Flora de Santis. La resolución aprobada por mayoría planteó cuatro observaciones sobre la adquisición del predio.  Una de ellas parte de la base de que lo que ocurrió fue un compra directa, para la cual se hubieran requerido los votos de cuatro de los cinco directores de Colonización. En esta ocasión, la compra fue aprobada con el voto de tres directores.  La segunda observación, según la mayoría, responde a la vigencia de una “prenda” sobre el sistema de riego existente en el predio. Según el dictamen, en la operación no se establece si esa prenda, un bien mueble, estaba incluida o no en el precio acordado por la compra.  Las otras observaciones respondieron a que, según los ministros, Colonización carecía de disponibilidad en su presupuesto para afrontar la compra y que el gasto por US$ 32 millones supera además la asignación presupuestal anual del organismo.  Del otro lado, los ministros designados por el actual oficialismo rechazaron las objeciones. Según informó La Diaria, alegaron que no se trata de una compra directa, sino del ejercicio de un derecho de preferencia previsto en la Ley de Colonización, para el cual alcanza con mayoría simple. También relativizan la prenda, y aseguran que puede resolverse al momento de la escritura definitiva. Este episodio se suma a una polémica que ya estaba planteada. La compra fue anunciada por el secretario de Presidencia, Alejandro “Pacha” Sánchez, durante el pasaje del cortejo fúnebre de José Mujica frente a la sede del MPP, y fue presentada como un homenaje al expresidente. Semanas más tarde, el presidente del INC, Eduardo Viera, debió renunciar al conocerse que era colono, algo incompatible con su cargo según la Constitución. La oposición cuestionó el precio —unos 7.500 dólares por hectárea— y la oportunidad política del anuncio. El oficialismo defendió el proyecto: dijo que se instalarían allí 16 nuevos tambos, con una producción estimada en 10 millones de dólares anuales y un impacto económico que podría llegar a los 60 millones. Ahora, el INC debe resolver si reitera el gasto e intenta levantar las observaciones. Según el artículo 211 de la Constitución, si Colonización insiste y el Tribunal mantiene su postura, será la Asamblea General la que deberá pronunciarse.

Conversamos En Perspectiva con Lucía Topolansky, que ha ido retomando la actividad política en el Movimiento de Participación Popular (MPP) y del Frente Amplio, tras 40 días después del fallecimiento de su esposo José Mujica. ¿De qué manera trabaja en el legado del ex presidente? ¿A qué se dedica ella hoy en el MPP y el FA? ¿Qué papel puede jugar en esta administración y en la negociación entre oficialismo y oposición?

Ayer tuvo lugar una nueva tragedia carcelaria en Uruguay, a raíz de un incendio en una celda.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with sociologist Assaf Bondy and human rights researcher and historian Adam Raz about what they call the "lexicon of brutality," drawing from a recent book the pair published in Hebrew on the language that Israelis use to discuss Palestinians and, specifically, the Israeli war on Gaza. The trio also talk about whether Israel has ever been a democracy and what people in Israel who oppose the genocide can do to resist it. Ha'aretz newspaper published this interview with Bondy in Raz in May 2025: "'Depopulation,' 'Kill Zone,' and 'Second Nakba': The Lexicon of Brutality Exposes How Israelis Talk About the War."  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine.

He earned a BA at the University of Pennsylvania and an MPP at Harvard University. Dr. Assaf Bondy is a Labour Sociologist at the University of Bristol who studies the political-economy of employment relations in advanced economies. Bondy's work has been so far dedicated to the study of changing conditions for collective actions and its changing forms and effects – on workers' rights, on inequality, on the structure of employment relations and on the political economy.  Adam Raz is a human rights researcher and historian whose field of research is the political history of the twentieth century and Marxist thought. In recent years Raz has written several books on the history of nuclear weapons in Israel and the Israel-Palestinian conflict. Among his books in Hebrew are: The Struggle for the Bomb (2015), Herzl: The Conflicts of Zionism's Founder with Supporters and Opponents (2017), Kafr Qassem Massacre: A Political Biography (2018), The Military Rule 1948-1966 (2021).

Conversamos En Perspectiva con Tamara Paseyro, ministra de Vivienda. ¿Cuáles son las prioridadades del gobierno de Yamandú Orsi en materia de vivienda? ¿Qué cambios se preparan con respecto a las políticas del gobierno anterior? ¿Aumentará el presupuesto o se reordenarán los recursos que ya venían manejándose? Las autoridades del Ministerio de Vivienda y Ordenamiento Territorial comparecieron ayer por primera vez en la comisión especializada de la Cámara de Diputados, donde expusieron las grandes líneas de la gestión que están preparando. La delegación estuvo encabezada por la ministra Tamara Paseyro, que asumió hace menos de dos meses, en abril, luego de la polémica política que llevó a la renuncia de Cecilia Cairo, la dirigente de primera línea del MPP que había sido designada inicialmente al frente de esa cartera. Hasta ese momento Paseyro venía desempeñandose en esa cartera como directora nacional de Integración Social y Urbana.

La Mesa Especial de Análisis Político con Antonio Cardarello, Daniel Chasquetti, Mariana Pomiés y Camila Zeballos. *** Desde su llegada al Poder Ejecutivo, el gobierno de Yamandú Orsi impuso un estilo diferente en cuanto a la comunicación. Durante la transición, por ejemplo, los ministros designados fueron presentando en conferencias de prensa a los equipos que los acompañarían, publicando además en redes sociales los detalles, con información y fotos tomadas profesionalmente de cada uno de los jerarcas. Luego, algunas autoridades asumieron sus cargos en lugares como el Auditorio Nacional del Sodre, la plaza Huelga General de Flor de Maroñas o, el caso más llamativo, la entonces flamante ministra de Vivienda Cecilia Cairo, que tomó posesión en el asentamiento Campo Galusso. Sin embargo, a medida que pasaron los meses surgieron críticas a Orsi y su equipo de gobierno debido a la forma en que se hicieron algunos anuncios y manejaron situaciones. Un ejemplo se dio con la compra de una estancia en Florida por el Instituto Nacional de Colonización, que fue comunicada por el secretario de Presidencia de la República, Alejandro Sánchez, durante el pasaje del cortejo fúnebre del expresidente José Mujica frente a la sede del MPP. Otro caso, más reciente, fue el cierre de la Biblioteca Nacional para el acceso al público, que fue informado por la directora de la institución en el marco del Día Nacional del Libro. El politólogo Gerardo Caetano lo analizó de esta manera en una entrevista con La Diaria: "A Orsi le está faltando claridad. Orsi tiene muchas virtudes, pero la comunicación política no es una de ellas. Tiene que trabajar mucho en eso, es muy importante. Cuando el presidente habla está gobernando. Han habido falta de sintonía entre él y algunos de sus ministros". ¿Los politólogos perciben un deterioro en la comunicación del gobierno? ¿Por qué es importante para Orsi dar mensajes claros?

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with analyst Trita Parsi of the Quincy Institute about Iran and the U.S. Their conversation spans from exploring decision-making authority and processes in Iran to the impact that U.S. sanctions have on ordinary people in Iran, where poverty has risen dramatically. They speak in depth about the regional and economic dynamics that may have primed Iran for a deal with the United States, including a growing recognition about both the potential and limits on what Russia and China can provide, and the possibility that President Trump will break with DC orthodoxy to make a deal. Trita Parsi is the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He is an award-winning author and the 2010 recipient of the Grawemeyer Award for Ideas Improving World Order. He is an expert on US-Iranian relations, Iranian foreign policy, and the geopolitics of the Middle East. He has authored four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel. His first book, Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Iran, Israel and the United States (Yale University Press, 2007), won the silver medal winner of the 2008 Arthur Ross Book Award from the Council on Foreign Relations. His second book, A Single Roll of the Dice – Obama's Diplomacy with Iran (Yale University Press, 2012) and was selected by Foreign Affairs as the Best Book of 2012 on the Middle East. Parsi's latest book – Losing an Enemy: Obama, Iran and the Triumph of Diplomacy (Yale University Press, 2017) – reveals the behind the scenes story to the nuclear deal with Iran. Parsi was born in Iran but moved with his family at the age of four to Sweden in order to escape political repression in Iran. His father was an outspoken academic who was jailed by the Shah and then by the Ayatollah. He moved to the United States as an adult and studied foreign policy at Johns Hopkins' School for Advanced International Studies where he received his PhD under Francis Fukuyama and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP.

In this episode, I dig into a question that's always lurking in the back of a portrait photographer's mind – what really makes light flattering? It's a term we all use, but what does it actually mean? Is it just about soft shadows and low contrast, or is it more about the connection between the subject and the photographer? I talk through this while reflecting on a busy week – from a stunning wedding at Head Saw House to a corporate shoot for Barclays, and a spontaneous portrait session that reminded me why I love this job. I also share some thoughts on the updated Mastering Portrait Photography book, which hits shelves in September, complete with fresh images and a whole new chapter on AI post-production. If you've ever wondered what makes a light truly flattering – and why it's about more than just the gear – this episode is for you. And as always, wherever you are and whatever you're doing, be kind to yourself. Cheers P.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor and author Ben Ehrenreich cover a range topics reflecting Ben's reporting and analysis on Israel/Palestine and U.S. policy, including West Bank Palestinians' relationships to affecting change through nonviolent action, the Biden Administration and Democratic Party's approaches to Palestine and Israel's genocidal war in Gaza, Zionism, and media complicity in genocide. They draw from Ben's recent essays "After Nonviolence" (Harper's, May 2025); "You Don't Get Trump Without Gaza" (The Nation, April 2025); and his 2009 op-ed, Zionism is the Problem (LA Times).  Ben Ehrenreich is the author of two books of nonfiction, Desert Notebooks and The Way to the Spring, based on his reporting from the West Bank; two novels, Ether and The Suitors; and many articles, stories, and essays.  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere.
