Ein Veranstaltungsmitschnitt der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Soziologie vom 18.10.2024. Rassismus und Prozesse der Rassifizierung in Bezug auf Osteuropäer*innen erfahren in westeuropäischen Ländern verhältnismäßig wenig Aufmerksamkeit. Am 18. Oktober organisierten die Sektionen „Migrations- und Rassismusforschung“ sowie „Soziale Ungleichheit“ der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Soziologie (ÖGS) eine Veranstaltung mit dem Titel „Antiosteuropäischer Rassismus, Ausbeutung und Widerstand“. Ziel der Veranstaltung war es, zur Thematisierung von antiosteuropäischem Rassismus beizutragen und über seine gegenwärtigen Auswirkungen zu sprechen. In der heutigen Folge des mosaik-Podcast hört ihr einen Impulsvortrag von Jannis Panagiotidis. Gemeinsam mit Hans-Christian Petersen hat er das Buch „Antiosteuropäischer Rassismus in Deutschland. Geschichte und Gegenwart“ verfasst. In seinem Vortrag zeichnet Jannis die historischen Ursprünge von antiosteuropäischem Rassismus in Deutschland und sein Fortwirken bis in die Gegenwart nach. Im Anschluss daran kommen Simona Ďurišová und Sónia Melo zu Wort. Simona ist Mitgründerin der IG 24 – der Interessengemeinschaft der 24-Stunden-Betreuer*innen in Österreich. Sónia setzt sich im Rahmen der Sezonieri-Kampagne für die Rechte von Erntearbeiter*innen in Österreich ein. Simona und Sónia berichten von ihren Kämpfen, prekären Arbeitsverhältnissen und fehlenden Rechten. Gemeinsam mit Jannis diskutieren sie, welche Funktionen antiosteuropäischer Rassismus erfüllt und warum die Würde des Spargels in Deutschland wie auch Österreich unantastbar scheint. Clara Holzinger und Niki Kubaczek haben die Veranstaltung moderiert, die in der Brunnenpassage in Wien-Ottakring stattfand. Neben der Moderation hört ihr zu Beginn der Aufnahme zwei Veranstaltungsankündigungen zum Thema. Am 11. November feiert die Sezonieri-Kampagne ihr zehnjähriges Bestehen und lädt zur Filmvorführung von The Pickers ins Admiral Kino in Wien. Bereits am 24. Oktober zeigt der Cinemarkt in der Brunnenpassage die Filme Carenomadinnen und The Limits of Europe. Beide Filme widmen sich der Ausbeutung osteuropäischer Arbeitskräfte in Westeuropa. Bild: mosaik

In this episode, Janet Michael hosts Dave Van Deventer from Shepherd's Ford Productions to discuss the upcoming 20th Annual Watermelon Pickers Fest 2024, which is set to take place from September 5 - 7, 2024 at the Clarke County Fairgrounds in Berryville. The conversation highlights the festival's return after a hiatus and dives into the event's rich history, logistics, and lineup. Dave shares the festival's origin story, starting at Watermelon Park and its evolution over two decades, including challenges like almost canceling due to rain in 2018. He emphasizes the sense of community and the fun of taking a break and coming back refreshed and inspired. The festival offers a diverse array of bluegrass acts and other activities. This year's headliner is Peter Rowan, along with other notable performers like Wyatt Ellis, Della Mae, and John McEuen. The event also features workshops, kids' activities, vendor stalls, and, of course, plenty of opportunities for impromptu jam sessions. Dave talks about the detailed schedule for both days, starting in the evening on September 5, with early arrival music camps with the official kickoff on September 6 with yoga, workshops, and dance sessions, and continuing with performances and other activities. Campers are encouraged to arrive on the 5th to grab prime camping spots - there is no additional fee to camp.  For families, the festival offers a great environment with various kids' activities like recycled instrument making, a parachute and pinata event, and even a festival parade. Besides music, there will be craft vendors and a variety of food stalls. Janet and Dave also discuss the practical aspects such as ticket prices, camping options, and additional amenities like showers. They assure listeners that the festival is designed to be family-friendly and inclusive, with special half-price tickets for teens and free admission for kids under 12. Dave encourages listeners to attend, whether they're camping for the whole weekend or just visiting for the day.

Before last Friday, to know about the 1938 crab pickers strike in Crisfield, Maryland, you had to know about it. This is the story of so many worker struggles in this country; hard-fought fights that unlike other battles – the Civil War, for example – have virtually no monuments or plaques, no visitor centers. But now, on Crisfield Highway, Maryland Route 413, there's an official state historical marker that commemorates the 1938 strike by 600 crab pickers, mostly Black women. On today's show we bring you an audio postcard from the marker's unveiling. Next Saturday, May 18, there will be another unveiling, this one in Philadelphia, of a new mural celebrating Ben Fletcher, one of the most influential working-class unionists, revolutionaries, and organizers in all of U.S. history. We talk with historian Peter Cole, author of Ben Fletcher: The Life and Times of a Black Wobbly, whose work inspired the mural.

Farmer confidence is at an all time low: that's according to a new survey published this week by the National Farmers' Union. It says the wet weather has had an impact, but farmers also point to worries about the future of their businesses. The Government's announcement that the seasonal worker visa scheme is being extended for five years has been welcomed by farming organisations. It comes as part of Defra's response to an independent review into labour shortages in the Food Supply Chain which was published last summer. The Government had said it would respond to it last year. The RSPB says it is "vital" that a UK ban on fishing for sandeels in the North Sea remains in place. The ban, which stops sandeel trawlers fishing in English and Scottish sections of the North Sea, came into effect in April following a long campaign by conservationists concerned about declining seabird populations, particularly puffins and kittiwakes. Fishermen in Denmark are supporting a challenge by the European Union to the UK ban, claiming they have lost half of their fishing grounds because of the new restrictions. Cornish journalist and farmer, Stuart Oates, has been taking a European road trip in his fairly ancient land rover, peering over as many hedges as possible. From mangoes in spain to rice in Portugal, he started at the heart of the global wine industry in France. In the UK wine production has become a thriving business, but in Bordeaux things aren't looking so good.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

“Society calls us waste pickers but I am a reclaimer, I don't collect waste,” says Luyanda Hlashwayo, who for the last 12 years has made a living by sifting through household garbage to find recyclables for sale.It is estimated there are 15-20 million people worldwide who, like Hlatshwayo, depend on the informal waste sector for livelihood.Their work is dangerous and they are paid poorly.Through the Africa Reclaimers Organisation which he helped found, waste pickers from South Africa and Kenya are discussing ways to improve their working conditions and livelihoods, as they continue to push for recognition as formal stakeholders.In this episode of Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja talks to Hlatshwayo and Winnie Wanjira who has been a waste picker at one of the largest landfills in East Africa.
