When Black women show up – as election workers, activists, advocates, voters – they make a difference. So, when they step forward, why do they so often meet resistance, not just from opponents, but also from supposed allies? And why has that never stopped them. Atima Omara's new book, “The Instigators: How Black Women Have Been Essential to American Democracy (And what we can learn from them),” is both a history lesson and a blueprint for the future. In an almost two-decade career, Omara, founder of the award-winning Omara Strategy Group, has worked at the intersection of electoral politics and advocacy in the progressive movement. She is my guest on this episode of Equal Time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Australia's migration advice sector is under increased scrutiny as new federal reforms targeting unethical operators take effect. Regulator, OMARA, has cancelled the registration of Melbourne-based migration agent Jujhar Bajwa for five years, following an investigation into 'conduct concerns'. Bajwa disputes key findings and plans to challenge the decision. Authorities have urged migrants to verify advisers before paying for services. - ਆਸਟ੍ਰੇਲੀਆ ਸਰਕਾਰ ਵਲੋਂ ਮਾਈਗ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਨ ਏਜੰਟਾਂ ਖਿਲਾਫ਼ ਸਖਤੀ ਵਰਤਦੇ ਹੋਏ 1 ਅਪ੍ਰੈਲ 2026 ਤੋਂ 4 ਨਵੇਂ ਵਿਧਾਨਕ ਨਿਯਮ ਲਾਗੂ ਕੀਤੇ ਗਏ ਹਨ। ਇਸ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਅਨੇਕਾਂ ਟ੍ਰੈਵਲ ਏਜੰਟਾਂ ਉੱਤੇ ਨਿਯਮਾਂ ਦੀ ਉਲੰਘਣਾ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਕਥਿਤ ਦੋਸ਼ਾਂ ਤਹਿਤ ਕਾਰਵਾਈ ਕਰਦੇ ਹੋਏ ਮਾਈਗ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਨ ਏਜੰਟ ਰਜਿਸਟ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਨ ਅਥਾਰਟੀ ਦੇ ਦਫ਼ਤਰ (OMARA) ਵਲੋਂ ਲਾਈਸੰਸ ਮੁਅੱਤਲ ਅਤੇ ਰੱਦ ਕੀਤੇ ਜਾ ਰਹੇ ਹਨ। ਇਸ ਤਹਿਤ ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਮੂਲ ਦੇ ਚਰਚਿਤ ਜੁਝਾਰ ਬਾਜਵਾ ਦਾ MARA ਲਾਇਸੈਂਸ ਪੰਜ ਸਾਲਾਂ ਲਈ ਖਾਰਿਜ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ। ਕੀ ਹੈ ਪੂਰਾ ਮਾਮਲਾ, ਇਸ ਪੌਡਕਾਸਟ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਜਾਣੋ।

Chuck Todd opens with a sobering analysis of the post-Correspondents' Dinner shooting political climate, arguing that both sides are now busy blaming each other for violent rhetoric while past presidents from both parties always understood their job was to lower the temperature, not raise it. He argues that while Democratic rhetoric has gotten harsher in recent years, Trump is the one who fundamentally changed what was acceptable to say out loud — his January 6th pardons effectively created a permission slip for political violence, and the public barely batted an eye when he celebrated Robert Mueller's death — and warns it only takes one unstable person to take the wrong cue from this environment. He says American politics has become genuinely brutal and violent, that the "cold civil war" is warming up, and that two wrongs don't make a right: just because Trump started this race to the bottom doesn't mean everyone has to engage in it. He then pivots to the Iran war, where he says the U.S. and Iran are measuring the conflict in fundamentally different ways — for the regime, victory is simply surviving — and argues that Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz has to be addressed before any nuclear threat. He closes with the proposed Florida redistricting map (which looks great for the GOP in a presidential year but terrible in a midterm), a new Texas poll showing Talarico leading both potential GOP nominees, and Susan Collins going negative on Graham Platner before the Maine primary. Atima Omara — Democratic political strategist, longtime activist, and author of the new book The Instigators — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation about who actually decides American elections, why Democrats keep losing despite favorable demographics, and what a winning coalition looks like in 2028. Omara opens by dismantling the conventional wisdom that white moderate swing voters are the deciding force in elections, arguing that the 2024 contest was lost on mobilization rather than persuasion — Trump won at the margins, not in a landslide, and many blue states were won by surprisingly thin margins. She points out that Kamala Harris was behind before she even started because she had to succeed an unpopular Biden, but they credit Harris with saving three to four Senate seats that Biden would have lost outright. Omara walks through the political leverage Black women in Virginia exercised after the Ralph Northam blackface scandal — pushing for real legislative change rather than just symbolic accountability — and uses that as a case study in how activist coalitions can wield power smartly. The conversation turns to the structural challenges facing the Democratic coalition and what comes next. Omara makes the case that Republican advocacy is a constant, year-round operation while Democrats only mobilize during election years — a fundamental asymmetry that has allowed Republican messaging to dominate the cultural spaces and media ecosystem. She argues the left needs to get dramatically better at cultural messaging, that the activist class has helped Democrats make progress but has also made the party more rigid in ways that hurt it electorally, and that organizations like the Working Families Party are doing important work trying to push the Democratic Party from within. They both reflect on whether the two-party duopoly can survive — Americans clearly want the flexibility of a multiparty system but are stuck with this one. She offers a fascinating cultural analysis of why one-third of the electorate effectively grew up in a non-multiracial democracy, why events like the Tulsa massacre still aren't taught in most public schools, and why the South disproportionately sets the tone for American (and especially Republican) politics. They close by handicapping the 2028 Democratic field. Finally, he gives his ToddCast Top 5 list of Republican races that could signal trouble for Donald Trump and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

Buena Vista Social Club: The album so good it's life-affirming. And it almost didn't happen.In 1996, an American musician landed in Cuba to record a music project with Malian musicians. But when they didn't show up, Ry Cooder and his producer, Juan de Marcos González, went looking for replacements. That's when they found Compay Segundo, Ibrahim Ferrer and Rubén González, who had seen their musical prime decades earlier in the 40s and 50s.

Piše Miša Gams, bereta Aleksander Golja in Lidija Hartman. Pisateljica Mirana Likar Bajželj je s pisanjem začela precej pozno – leta 2007 je zmagala na literarnem festivalu Urška, dve leti zatem pa je izšla njena prva kratkoprozna zbirka Sobotne zgodbe in bila nominirana za najboljši prvenec in nagrado fabula. Sledile so še zbirke Sedem besed, Glasovi in Ženska hiša ter roman Pripovedovalec, z njimi pa tudi nominacije za kresnik in dvakrat za Cankarjevo nagrado. Kratkoprozna zbirka V moji omari je zasnovana tako, da po strukturi spominja na roman s posebnimi poglavji, ki delujejo kot kratke zgodbe – nekatere med njimi se vsebinsko nanašajo na sosednje zgodbe, spet druge lahko beremo kot samostojne celote. Med zgodbe je avtorica vnesla povezovalni tekst osrednje protagonistke, ki pred spanjem prebira zbornik zapiskov ameriške modne urednice Nine Garcia o ženskih modnih dodatkih z naslovom Vodnik po stvareh, ki jih mora imeti vsaka ženska s stilom. Branje o modnih muhah jo potegne v vrtinec spominov na obdobje odraščanja v socialistični Jugoslaviji, ko so čevlji z visoko peto in čipkasto spodnje perilo veljali za statusni simbol, mladina pa si je v trgovinah Borovo ogledovala rumene balerinke. Zgodbe o modnih dodatkih, med katerimi se posamezni rekviziti včasih pojavijo kar v prvi osebi, izpričujejo preplet spominov in sanj, socializma in kapitalizma, inspiracij in aspiracij, ki prek materialnih dobrin kažejo na hrepenenje po socialnem sprejemanju in človeški bližini. Tako kot v prejšnjih kratkoproznih zbirkah je Mirana Likar tudi v pričujoči intuitivna in pronicljiva pripovedovalka z veliko posluha za detajle in za tragično usodo junakinj, ki zaradi samovoljne ali celo ambiciozne drže trčijo pri drugih ob zid neprivoščljivosti ali neodobravanja oz. zaničevanja rahlo pretencioznega življenjskega stila. Omara je tako metaforo za nezavedno glavne junakinje, ki skupaj z rdečo šminko, dragulji, broškami, blejzerji, čipkastim spodnjim perilom in najrazličnejšimi čevlji vleče iz nje tudi potlačeno željo po statusnih simbolih, ki jo je bila v obdobju socializma prisiljena potlačiti. Ob tem so njeni predali tudi mesto za “udomačitev” zgodb z različnih lokacij po svetu in iz različnih obdobij novejše zgodovine. Med protagonistkami kratkih zgodb je največ dijakinj in študentk, ki jih preganja trema pred izpitom: v zgodbi Broška glavna junakinja nikakor ne more opraviti zadnjega izpita, čeprav jo profesor nenehno spodbuja, v zgodbi Blejzer spremljamo dijakinjo na popravnem izpitu, ki že vnaprej sluti, da ga ne bo naredila, v zgodbi Gumijasti škornji pa uzremo isto situacijo iz perspektive učiteljice, ki jo prav dijakinjine visoke petke povedejo v lastno siromašno otroštvo, ko je hrepenela po gumijastih čevljih. Namesto da bi ocenjevala učenkino poznavanje kemijskega računstva, premleva njeno obutev, v kateri vidi priložnost za dominacijo nad avtoritetami: “Kako ji mama sploh pusti nosit tako visoke pete! Kje sploh dobi denar za italijanske čevlje! Zanjo domači čevlji niso dovolj dobri. Mladi ne vejo, kako je bilo včasih. Revščina, sama božja revščina! Ampak je država poskrbela, da smo vseeno lahko doštudirali tudi mi s hribov.” In nadaljuje s spomini: “Imela sem eno samo željo. Da bi imela črne gumijaste škornje, s katerimi bi lahko šla obirat jabolka dol v zadrugo, da bi kaj zaslužila. Ali pa da bi šla v njih v šolo ali pa na sankanje. Za obutev je bilo najteže. Drugo smo že naštrikali in sešili, od štipendije sem si kasneje lahko kaj kupila, imela sem socialno in za nadarjene, kadrovsko, za čevlje je bil pa problem.” Protagonistka zgodbe Čipkasto spodnje perilo, ki jo po nedolžnem obtožijo kraje perila in vržejo iz učiteljišča, odrašča v podobnem času in okolju – kljub temu da izhaja iz premožne kmečke družine, si zaradi državno načrtovanega uničenja kmetij in očetovega bankrota ne more zagotoviti solidne eksistence, dokler se ne zaposli v pisarni kmetijske zadruge. Tudi v zgodbi Mokasini: čevlji s polno peto komunisti protagonistkini babici odvzamejo hišo, zato si ne more kupiti kvalitetnih čevljev, ki so sinonim za eksistencialno samozadostnost in prizemljitev. Čeprav so psihološki značaji v zgodbah Mirane Likar podrobno dodelani, pa rdeča nit zgodb občasno umanjka ali pa jo dopolnjuje vzporedna zgodba, ki nekoliko “razvodeni” osnovno pripoved. Tak primer je zgodba Dežni plašč, v kateri spremljamo zgodbo ženske, ki se po dolgih letih izkoriščanja ločuje od moža, vmes pa njeno izpoved “pretrgajo” dokumentarni podatki o izumitelju vojaškega dežnega plašča Thomasu Burberryju, ki je volnena oblačila za vojake izpopolnil z nepremočljivim gabardenom. Zanimiv pripovedni narativ odlikuje tudi zgodbo Čevlji Marry Jones, v kateri se naslovna junakinja po imenu Punčka s teto Mico odpravi na sprehod po mestu, a vsake toliko pripoved vodijo čevlji, ki v prvi osebi opisujejo svoj pogled na ulice in trge. O projiciranju svojih strahov v druge spregovorita zgodbi Srebrni natikači in Enodelne kopalke, ki v kratkih in odsekanih stavkih nakažeta soočenje s strahom pred razgaljenjem in umiranjem. O razvajenosti in potuhi govori zgodba Rdeča šminka, tudi ta nastopa v prvi osebi ednine in predstavlja simbol neučinkovitega spopadanja z obrambnimi mehanizmi. Ko se na koncu knjige osrednja protagonistka zbudi iz spanja, se zave, da jo sanjske zgodbe, ki jim je bila priča, na nek način tolažijo in uravnovešajo: “To noč sem pobrala iz omare tisto, kar bom potrebovala danes ali sem pogrešila včeraj. Kaj to je, ne odločam sama. O tem odloča preteklost. Zaradi nje se pogovarjam, prepiram, si želim, zaradi njih me sanjske zgodbe tolažijo in žalostijo, povezujejo z drugimi, uravnovešajo. Sem, kar sanjam.” Ko skupaj z Mirano Likar zapremo omaro zgodb, ki nas navdajo z najrazličnejšimi prebliski, lahko tudi sami zagotovimo, da smo to, o čemer beremo – sploh ker protagonistke zgodb razgaljajo svoja najbolj intimna občutja, hrepenenja, travme in vizije, v katerih se z lahkoto prepoznamo.

Dans cette 1re partie de notre échange, Lisa Omara raconte son parcours jusqu'à la création de Pyar Lab, entre passion des médias, choix assumés et besoin de liberté. On parle identité multiculturelle avec ses origines algériennes, plafond de verre, racisme en entreprise et ce que l'entrepreneuriat lui a permis de reprendre : sa place, sa voix, son style. Et puis la maternité : une transformation profonde, qui redéfinit la réussite, le travail et l'équilibre au quotidien.Suivre Pyar lab sur Instagram

Leopoldo Fernández y Aníbal de Mar en las pieles de sus famosos personajes "Pototo y Filomeno", con el apoyo de la orquesta "Melodías del 40" del maestro Regino Frontela Fraga, comenzaron el programa con el son montuno de Félix Cárdenas: "Yo pico un pan". Grabación producida por la etiqueta "Puchito" hacia 1955. Muy a propósito del aniversario 113 de este compositor, tresero y guitarrista matancero, será un gusto retomar algo de su riquísima producción autoral. "Quiero un sombrero", otra de sus composiciones, llega a la manera del gran Orlando Guerra "Cascarita". Lo acompañan en esta grabación registrada a mediados de los 40 por RCA Víctor, la orquesta "Casino de la Playa" con un descollante Pérez Prado al piano. La señal de la antigua CMQ de Monte y Prado, foco artístico importante de La Habana allá por 1945, nos trajo la sonoridad de la veterana jazz band "Hermanos Castro" con su cantante Orlando Planas. "Revoltillo", guaracha de Félix Cárdenas, antecede a otro de sus éxitos de esos años: "El cuento del sapo", un son montuno que grabó con la orquesta del trompetista Julio Cueva otro olvidado cantante cubano: Reinaldo Valdés "el jabao". Desde el son al guaguancó, la guaracha, el montuno y el bolero, entre otros tantos géneros, el legado de Félix Cárdenas indiscutiblemente contribuyó a la evolución de la música popular. Nació en Matanzas el 6 de noviembre de 1912, y la mejor manera de celebrar su vida y obra es escuchando algunas de sus creaciones. "Ya Mantilla se botó", un guaguancó de Félix Cárdenas a la manera de Faz, Espí y Vallejo con el Conjunto Casino de 1952. Despedimos este breve segmento con el bolero "Oye una canción para tí" y el son montuno "A bailar monte adentro". Cantan Beny Moré y Juan Antonio Jo "El Fantasmita". Arribar a los 95 años con la increíble lucidez vocal de Omara Portuondo, es sin lugar a dudas, una suerte inmensa para la cultura cubana. Seguidamente una selección de grabaciones históricas nos permitirán celebrar la respetable carrera de "La Novia del Feeling". Así volverá a deleitarnos aquella simpática mulata que, finalizando los años 40, iluminó los escenarios integrando los fabulosos cuartetos "Loquibambia" de Frank Emilio, y los de los también pianistas y compositores Orlando de la Rosa y Aida Diestro. La voz del feeling que, luego de 50 años en los escenarios, como parte del proyecto "Buenavista Social Club" logró darle un nuevo y definitivo aire a su ya extensa trayectoria, volviendo a los clásicos cubanos. Con cuatro piezas, que igualmente representan importantes momentos de su carrera como solista, celebramos los 95 de Omara: "Llanto de luna" de Julio Gutiérrez; "Nada para ti" de Enrique Jorrin; "Como un milagro" de Juanito Márquez y "No me vayas a engañar" de Osvaldo Farrés. De Artemisa para el mundo. El 6 noviembre de 1949, hace 76 años nació Arturo Sandoval, una de las grandes leyendas de la música popular y el jazz cubanos. En esta última categoría, muy especialmente, no ha dejado de destacar este valioso músico. Sincronía de alma y grandeza su encuentro con el gran Dizzy Gillespie, así como la conjunción con otros importantes músicos de su generación que luego de integrar la Orquesta de Música Moderna en 1967, cinco años más tarde diera paso a la aparición de la banda más influyente de los últimos tiempos: "Irakere". Multifacético e incombustible, ha dejado una copiosa discografia en la que maravillosamente ha reflejado su virtuosismo así como el infinito caudal de referentes de la música clásica, lo popular y bailable cubano, y el jazz norteamericano. Felicidades Maestro. Unos minutos junto al gran Arturo Sandoval.

Omara Portuondo, a punto de cumplir 95 años, acaba de publicar 'Eternamente Omara' con canciones como 'Eso no lo he dicho yo' de Juan Pablo Torres, 'Lamento cubano' de Eliseo Grenet, 'Tú mi delirio' de Portillo de la Luz o 'Soy tan feliz' de Benny Moré. El pianista cubano Iván 'Lewis' Melón abre con 'Be' y 'Momento' y cierra con 'Otra posibilidad' de su reciente disco 'Luces y sombras'. Del disco de canciones de Elliott Smith del pianista Brad Mehldau 'Ride into the sun' los instrumentales 'Better be quiet now' y 'Everything means nothing to me'. Además, la cantante brasileña Ithamara Koorax con Carlos Pingarilho ('Samba do dom natural'), Eumir Deodato y el grupo Azymuth ('Feel like makin´ love') y Deodato ('Spirit of summer').

CANCELLING A UGANDA TV PRESENTER

Amanda started out as a coach for fitness instructors and helping them build their businesses. There was a point in time it was no longer a passion. There was something missing and what she loved was no longer effortless. Amanda had no choice but to dive deep into her own healing and shares how she has become a master of her own shadow! She came across a whole level up from any Reiki practice. Even though it is still about energy exchange and personal healing. The difference with this is it mainly focuses on the spinal cord. The spinal is the central hub of your nervous system and there can be a misalignment when you experience any kind of stress or trauma. With the right guidance, energy can be released involving physical shifts and movements in the body. The idea of this work is to help heal and lower the levels of stress and move it our of the body. People can experience an emotional release, relief from physical pain, boost immunity and enhance your spiritual growth and connection to self.

This episode is brought to you by Beekeepers Naturals and ButcherBox.As we age and start to experience subtle shifts in our bodies, we might notice more swollenness in our joints and puffiness in our faces and generally feel more lethargic and less mentally sharp.

Greetings, beautiful mamas. Something we all seem to forget is that as Mamas, we are leaders. You set the tone of your family, you lead them through challenges, you hold the vision of who they can be. That is a true leader. But in our current culture of Super-Women and Perfectionism, we often think leadership is an 'outside' thing - something we have to build outside of ourselves, a strength we have to find to keep on going no matter what. Omara Evertz is a coach, author and mama. In this episode, she shares what REAL feminine motherhood leadership looks like - and it all starts with an inner understanding of yourself. In this episode, we share practical tools and ideas to begin to explore your leadership as a mother and a woman, how to drop out of the masculine race and instead follow your own body and cycles, how to mother with certainty but still hold unconditional grace, and what true leadership the world needs.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------FULL YOUTUBE EPISODE AVAILABLE HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHXnLkoqvB8And Long-form audio episode is right HERE: https://www.amytaylorkabbaz.com/ep-162-leadership-in-motherhood-with-omara-evertz/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please visit my website: https://www.amytaylorkabbaz.com and: https://mamarising.net/ to submit questions for Mama Q, our new Q&A podcast session, where we answer your questions regarding Matrescence and motherhood.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW...-How motherhood changes your core identity-What the 'Inner Split' is, and how to come to terms with this change within you-How to stop being torn between all the roles you have to play-How to see yourself, your body, and all your relationships differently-How to stop being so hard on yourself and, in turn, stop being so resentful towards your loved onesThen register for a set of live coaching calls with me, Amy Taylor Kabbaz.HAVE THE UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN AMY AND HUNDREDS OF OTHERS TO ASK QUESTIONS, LISTEN, HEAL AND RISE TOGETHER.CLICK the LINK to find out more:https://www.amytaylorkabbaz.com/tboy/-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Within these conversations, we change the way mothers are valued and seen in our society and spread the whispers of Matrescence together.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[TIME STAMPS][00:00] - Acknowledgements[00:40] - Intro[02:00] - Leadership in Motherhood[03:29] - Birth By Fire[04:43] - A Masculine Way[06:38] - An Eye on Yourself[08:03] - The Moon[11:53] - What Leadership Looks Like[12:55] - Deep Knowing[13:15] - Unbalanced Masculine[13:56] - Feminine is The Bowl[15:31] - Outro

As a versatile producer and assistant director, Dana Kuznetzkoff has worked on legendary projects which include Forrest Gump, 2 Days in the Valley and The Wire. Dana wears several hats in the film industry, and her approach toward selecting projects has a lot to do with the value of the collaboration to take place. The Bronx native was in the midst of taking a significant role in the world of advertising when a chance encounter, one that didn't go so well, veered her off onto a different path in a different industry — Film and Television. And through the years, Dana moved up the ranks from DGA trainee, when she worked on Jonathan Demme's Something Wild, to being head of the first unit. Along the way came important experiences on The Equalizer, Law & Order and Ron Howard's Far and Away. 1993 saw the first of several collaborations Dana has had with Robert Zemeckis, which, in addition to Gump, included Death Becomes Her; and Flight, the latter on which she was First Assistant Director.

Elena Burke, una de las voces más queridas de la canción, el bolero y el feeling cubano. A 95 años de su aniversario, repasaremos algo de su legado sonoro. Se despedía la década del 50 del siglo XX, y con el decisivo respaldo comercial de la etiqueta Gema, fundada en 1957 por los hermanos Álvarez Guedes, Elena debutó como solista. Luego de poco más de cinco años de permanencia en el célebre cuarteto de la pianista, arreglista y directora coral Aida Diestro, contó en sus primeras sesiones de estudio con el respaldo de otros dos importantes pianistas y compositores: Méme Solís y Frank Domínguez. La etiqueta Gema le propició además el acompañamiento de una orquesta con la conducción y los soberbios arreglos sinfónicos del maestro Rafael Somavilla. Su carisma y dominio escénicos muy pronto le abrieron las puertas del éxito en todo tipo de escenarios. Era una predestinada, desde la penumbra azuloza y cómplice del club, los estudios y platós de radio y televisión, hasta las salas teatrales más exigentes, Elena hizo invariablemente su magia. Volvemos a los comienzos de aquella muchachita que, como muchos de sus contemporáneos, encontró en los directos de la radio independiente, las primeras oportunidades de mostrar su talento. Hacia 1943, 15 años cumplidos y con la orquesta de la emisora Mil Diez dirigida por Adolfo Guzmán, ya defendía las canciones de un compositor que resultó ser crucial en su carrera: Orlando de la Rosa. Otro valioso fragmento de la radio, está vez de la importante CMQ del año 1952, nos acercará a la cantante siendo componente del cuarteto del importante pianista. Relevante su inserción en el mítico Cuarteto D'Aida. La magia del disco nos permitirá disfrutar de una joya discográfica, producida por la etiqueta RCA Victor hacia 1957. Con arreglos y conducción orquestales de Chico O'Farrill vio la luz: "Una noche en Sans Soucí " donde Elena, Moraima, Omara y Haydée Portuondo, reunieron parte del repertorio que solían presentar en el popular cabaret habanero. Ya a comienzos de los convulsos años 60s, "perdonado" el feeling por la nueva política oficial con un rimbombante "Forum", coartado todo el mecanismo de difusión musical, y golpeado por nuevas prohibiciones y sucesivos éxodos el sector artístico, la voz de Elena continuó brindando un oasis a los seguidores de aquella agitada bohemia cubana que, poco a poco, fue apagándose junto a los polvorientos anuncios de neón de los clubes clausurados por la ofensiva revolucionaria de 1968. Durante las décadas siguientes, apoyada por su indiscutible trayectoria, fue sin discusión La Voz del Feeling de Cuba. Para la historia y como testimonios únicos, quedaron sus grabaciones junto a su inseparable guitarrista Froilán, la orquesta Revé cuando la integraba un bisoño Juan Formell, o su magistral vínculo con la orquesta de música moderna y aquella oleada de jóvenes compositores de los primeros años 70s donde destacaron las piezas de Pablo Milanés y Silvio Rodríguez. La Elena del sentimiento infinito nos ha acompañado hoy. La que cantó con la Orquesta Aragón, la intérprete de José Antonio, de César, de Juan Pablo Miranda, de Marta Valdés, la formidable guerrera, afortunadamente salvada por el empeño del productor Jorge Rodríguez, en el que resultó ser su último trabajo: "Elena, en persona".

Britt Whitehead is a son, a kid brother, and a father of two. He's one of the smartest dudes you'll ever meet, so if you need a guy like that on your payroll, you should hire him. And while you ponder that, you might also chew on the idea of giving him a pile of U.S. currency to restore that favorite piece of furniture you've always been wanting redone.Anyhoo, let's not overlook the idea that Britt joined for an episode of Badass Records to talk about The White Album (or The Beatles' self-titled double LP, if that's what gets your rocks off) that remains a legendary recording 54 years after its release.I'm always nervous before recording an episode, but Britt really ratcheted up my anxiety when he showed up with pizza, a binder full of notes, and his above-my-paygrade brain.What a great conversation, though. We talked Zeppelin, Zappa, and jazz, and we goofed around with a funny list of double albums that spans 1966-2011.I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did, and please consider sharing with a friend, if so.It takes a lot of courage to say yes to being recorded talking on camera, and even more to show up and do it. There's probably a Will Smith joke in there somewhere, but hell -- those things are writing themselves these days.Anyway, shout out to @JamelAKAJamal, just...generally speaking, but also specifically within the context and creation of this episode. Be nice to people and help keep great music alive.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the intro/outro audio. They are samples from "Thinking of Omara" by Nightmares on Wax's N.O.W.
