What if the only way to save the planet... is to cool it? Not figuratively—literally. Because the heatwaves, floods, and fires you've seen so far? They're just the beginning.

In episode eight, we return to the George Brown College Labour Fair and a discussion with Ontario Federation of Labour president Laura Walton and chief steward and second vice president of OPSEU/SEFPO Local 556 Jeff Brown. We discuss the multiple issues facing the labour movement, union priorities and, in this age of polycrisis, what exactly we are working for. Speaking to the upcoming federal elections, Walton says: “I think we all can agree it's not going to be an NDP federal government. It's either gonna be Liberals or Conservatives. And I call them cancer and chemo; one's gonna kill you, the other one's gonna make you sick. We're going to be under, in Ontario, two governments that are not worker friendly, both federally and provincially. And it's going to be incumbent on workers to really embrace organizing principles … Now's not the time to be quiet. Now's the time that we're going to have to join our voices together to really push back." Reflecting on the how the trade war may impact already underfunded Ontario colleges, Brown says: “The colleges extend into so many fields in our province. Obviously healthcare, nursing community workers, but also things like all the skilled trades, forestry, aviation. I mean, these are the workers in communities that are the backbone of our economy … and the concern that being this underfunded, now with this trade war … the provincial government will use this as an excuse to further starve the system.” About today's guests:  Laura Walton is the president of the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) Canada's largest provincial labour federation. Walton served as president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees' Ontario School Boards Council of Unions (OSBCU) starting in 2019. She also served on the CUPE Ontario Executive Board. With a firm belief in the equalizing power of inclusive public education, Walton led her 55,000 coworkers across Ontario to withdraw their labour for two days in November 2022 in protest of the Ford government using the notwithstanding clause to ram through legislation that imposed a contract on CUPE education workers. Previously she served as president of CUPE Local 1022 which represents the education workers of Hastings and Prince Edward County District School Board. Dr. Jeff Brown is an experienced educator, researcher, and labour activist.  He is a full-time professor in the Liberal Arts and Sciences department at George Brown College in Toronto and Chief Steward/2nd Vice-President of OPSEU Local 556, representing unionized faculty at George Brown.  He is also a member of the Ontario College Faculty Divisional Executive.

Hello friends! We're back with another episode in our running series on Disasters, Crisis, and Collective Futures - this time looking at the “slow violence” of environmental disasters and degradation, the links between this violence and settler-colonialism, and the long standing practices of Aboriginal refusal and resistance against the crisis conditions of colonialism. This series began with podcast Episode 12 - After the Flood, and continued in Episode 13 - Disaster Communism with Nick Southall and Episode 14: "Crisis Colonialism" & the expanding frontiers of empire. In these episodes - in the wake of Cyclone Alfred - we spoke about so-called “natural” disasters and how, during them, the horizons of political possibility, and the ways we relate to each other, can shift and change. We talked about how those moments of disruption can be seized by colonial and capitalist actors to expand frontiers of extraction and control, and also how communities experiencing disruption sometimes radically reorganise themselves around principles of mutual aid and collective care. Something we've talked a bit about in this series is that crises, disasters, are not evenly distributed. Some people are far more frequently faced with disaster conditions - often as a result of state violence and neglect, capitalist exploitation, (and the “externalities” resulting from those activities), and because of the ongoing violence of settler-colonialism. For those of us who tend to experience disasters as short, sharp, and intermittent or rare shocks, it's important to consider:* what the uneven distribution of disasters and crises tells us about the material realities of colonialism and capitalism* how we can be in solidarity with people more regularly exposed to disasters, including people who've been doing the work of fighting for kin and Country and justice, and fighting against the forces of colonialism and capitalism, for hundreds of years. To help us think these things through, we could not be more delighted than to be bringing you this conversation with Rikki Dank, Gudanji and Wakaya woman and one of the directors of Gudanji For Country. Gudanji For Country is a grassroots First Nations organisation working to protect Country from colonial exploitation, overgrazing, mining, and fracking, to educate, advocate, and to create sustainable futures.This interview with Rikki covers a wide range of topics, including the relationship between the slow violence of environmental degradation and colonialism, the links between climate change and colonial capitalism, the history of damaging, extractive practices on Gudanji Country and across the Beetaloo Basin and elsewhere (from the damage wrought by early colonising pastoralists through to contemporary fracking), and how Aboriginal People have fought and found ways to care for community and Country in defiance of the colonial-capitalist apparatus. Through this interview, we see the long emergency of colonialism and of climate change, not as something expressed only through short and sharp big events (like Cyclone Alfred), but also through creeping pollution, contamination, degradation, exploitation, displacement, and damage to lifeways. In learning to pay attention to these different temporal expressions of disaster and crisis, we can better learn how to organise ourselves and our struggle as climate change escalates. Rikki Dank also spoke with us of Indigenous futurities and possibilities, of healing Country, of care, and of love - love as a feeling and as an orientation to the work of struggle, of organising, of activism, of building and maintaining community, of care, of creating possibilities for each other. She speaks of love as a feeling, love as an action, love as the steadfast refusal to be dispossessed by settler-colonialism, or to give up. (The centrality of love also brought to mind our conversation with Nick Southall about disaster communism a few weeks back - he also spoke of love, and the love of people and for people that helps drive us into and sustain us in struggle). We hope you enjoy this conversation with the wonderful Rikki Dank, and encourage you to follow her work with Gudanji for Country by signing up to their newsletter, following them on Instagram, and if you can, consider supporting their work through a donation.Yours in solidarity, The Radio Reversal Collective.

The climate crisis is spiraling, Trump's back in the White House, and the headlines keep getting worse. It's easy to feel powerless. But what if the first step toward saving the planet is something you learned in primary school? In this episode of The Bunker, Zing Tsjeng sits down with Mike Berners-Lee, author of A Climate of Truth, who argues that radical honesty about what's happening, who's responsible, and what must change might just be our most powerful tool against the looming polycrisis.  We are sponsored by Indeed.

In this week's episode of then & now, we present a recording of a recent event co-sponsored by the Wende Museum and the Luskin Center for History and Policy. This event launched the Meyer and Renee Luskin Public History Program at the Wende Museum, a series made possible through the extraordinary generosity of Meyer and Renee Luskin, with a thought-provoking conversation on the role of history in shaping how we address today's most urgent problems.Wende Museum Founder and Executive Director Justin Jampol was joined by David N. Myers, Distinguished Professor of History at UCLA and the Director of the Luskin Center for History and Policy, for an illuminating discussion on public history—how we collectively engage with the past to help make sense of the present. In an era defined by what some call a “polycrisis” of entangled geopolitical, economic, and ecological disruptions, historical perspective is more essential than ever. Together, Jampol and Myers explore the ways history can help us navigate complexity, challenge dominant narratives, and foster informed activism.Justin Jampol is the Founder and Executive Director of the Wende Museum. A scholar of Cold War visual culture, Jampol has dedicated his career to uncovering and preserving artifacts that tell alternative histories of 20th-century geopolitics. His innovative approach to public history—merging art, archives, and community engagement—has made the Wende Museum a global model for rethinking how museums interact with the past.David N. Myers is a Distinguished Professor of History at UCLA and the Director of the Luskin Center for History and Policy and the UCLA Initiative to Study Hate. A leading scholar of Jewish history, he has authored six books and edited thirteen others, including The Stakes of History: On the Use and Abuse of Jewish History for Life (Yale University Press, 2018). His research addresses Jewish intellectual and cultural history, with a focus on how historical narratives shape identity, politics, and social movements.Further ReadingThe Wende Museum programs

Why Feminine Embodiment is Essential in Times of Crisis We're living in intense times—so how can we navigate them in embodied ways? Whether you're navigating cyclones from climate change, destabilizing political regimens or something else closer to home, it's beyond heart breaking.  So what does this have to do with feminine embodiment? (hint, the answer's everything). There has never been MORE of a need for feminine power on the planet. So how can we access it, and use it, in embodied ways?

We live in an age of empire and resistance - a shifting geography of global power. The military, political and financial support of one country, the US, above all others has allowed a small country - Israel - to commit genocide in Gaza, to the horror of the vast majority of people worldwide. The US military, its corporations, its digital giants, its banks, and its culture continue to dominate globally. Yet at the same time, US-led imperialism has never felt more fractured and resisted. The heavily-resourced US army has been forced out of Afghanistan and was recently expelled from Niger. Nations such as Nicaragua and South Africa are taking powerful former colonial countries to court. Other international institutions, long seen as vehicles for exporting or enforcing US-led neoliberalism, such as the World Trade Organisation have seemingly run out of steam. The US is also increasingly isolated globally: Brazil, China, India, Russia and other nations are directly challenging its hegemony, and the US' dysfunctional democracy is less and less cited as a model by other countries. There is a growing popular sense that the post-Cold War neoliberal globalised order is in crisis. Is US hegemony really fading? Does any other nation, including China, pose any real challenge to US power, let alone offer a political or economic alternative?  Has the heralded hope of a BRICS bloc collapsed amidst its contradictions?  What would it take to build a more equitable and just new international political and economic order? In this episode, to properly examine where geopolitical or geoeconomic power lies today – and how it is being exercised and how that might be changing, TNI's Nick Buxton speaks to  Adam Tooze, and Walden Bello.  Adam Tooze holds the Shelby Cullom Davis chair of History at Columbia University and serves as Director of the European Institute. In 2019, Foreign Policy Magazine named him one of the top Global Thinkers of the decade. Walden Bello is a TNI associate and author of more that 20 books,  a human rights and peace campaigner, academic, environmentalist and journalist who has made a major contribution to the international case against corporate-driven globalization.

In this episode, Chera, Efraín, and Trinel explore the complexities of social responsibility in the midst of crisis - environmental, political, and cultural. They delve into the pressures on organizations, particularly those with a social justice mission, to speak on current events and the risks of both speaking out and remaining silent. The discussion addresses the challenge of knowing when and how to speak up, emphasizing the importance of defining one's distinct role and contributions.

We round up and run down many of the big themes that we think will be important in the coming year and demand our sustained critical attention. Our analysis spans from the new golden age of crypto to further consolidation in the (corporate) venture capital industry, from the ramping up of investment and partnerships in the market for military technology to the ways in which AI will keep growing as a story about the collisions between multiple massive interconnected infrastructures.

As we navigate a complex global landscape, marked by geopolitical tensions, inflation uncertainties, environmental changes leading to pressure on supply chains, and technological uncertainties, Myles explains how finance leaders can evolve from their traditional roles to become indispensable strategic partners within their organisations. Amidst a world of rapid change and the relentless news cycles that shape our perceptions, we examine the role of technology in both contributing to and alleviating uncertainty. The rise of AI and digital transformation presents not just challenges but also unprecedented opportunities to redefine the role of finance. Hear how CFOs can balance short-term performance with long-term strategic investments, embracing innovation while managing risk. As finance leaders become the compasses guiding their organisations, the importance of setting a clear direction and empowering teams with data-driven insights takes centre stage. Myles underscores the need for agile mindsets and strategic alignment to navigate this complex landscape, ultimately adding unparalleled value to organisations.

A special conversation with Naomi Klein, Astra Taylor, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, and Chenjerai Kumanyika Presented by Hammer & Hope magazine, Haymarket Books and Marguerite Casey Foundation. The Left is at a critical juncture in the United States—and globally. We confront multiple simultaneous threats, from rising militarism, to profound ecological disruptions, to the growing threat of fascism, and beyond. What are the possibilities for building hope and effective political strategies amid the intersecting economic, political, and ecological crises we face? How do we understand the limits of the ballot box to achieve the changes we need and deserve? Please join us for this urgent discussion, which will also serve as the launch of the new issue of Hammer & Hope magazine.

On this episode of the Another Way To See It podcast, we talk about what living in a polycrisis feels like to us.  Polycrisis is generally understood to mean: a cluster of related global risks with compounding effects such that the overall impact exceeds the sum of each part. Today, the world's simultaneous and overlapping crises include a mounting climate crisis, wars, inflation shock, democratic dysfunction,  health crisis, banking, housing , and food instabilities, and much more. The feeling that life is extra hard or harder than it has been in the past is real and when we name and contextualize our experience we begin to understand that it's not just us or in our heads, life is hard. There are certain truths that we need to face. Burying our heads in the sand is not going to stop these things from happening. How do we connect with our selves, and communities in these times? What kind of thinking and behaviors move the needle in a positive direction?  Call to action: in honor of Indigenous People's Day please consider donating time, money, or resources to one of your local indigenous communities.Indigenous causes receive just 23 cents out of every $100 of of philanthropic giving in the United States.

Today's discussion comes from our most recent annual conference “Existential Crises: Is the Georgist Paradigm Part of the Solution?” and was recorded in July of 2024. For the next ten weeks, our discussions will revolve around the polycrisis afflicting the globe with four subtopics. The first will be the four most important crises, followed by how Georgism can alleviate these crises, which will then be followed by how to make Georgism more politically palatable, and will conclude by discussing different Georgist policy solutions. Today's panelist is Dr. Franklin Obeng-Odoom, professor of Global Development Studies at the University of Helsinki in Finland.  Dr. Obeng-Odoom is a Fellow at the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences and has received numerous awards for his scholarship and teaching. He is the author of several books, including Global Migration Beyond Limits; The Commons in an Age of Uncertainty; and Property, Institutions, and Social Stratification in Africa. A productive author, Dr. Obeng-Odoom has authored dozens of journal articles and is on the American Journal of Economics and Sociology editorial board.  We were lucky enough to join Dr. Obeng-Odoom to discuss climate refugees, why environmental justice must include land tenure, and how Georgist philosophy can be broadened to better consider the environment.  To check out more of our content, including our research and policy tools, visit our website: https://www.hgsss.org/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/smart-talk-hgsss/support

Today's discussion comes from our most recent annual conference “Existential Crises: Is the Georgist Paradigm Part of the Solution?” and was recorded in July of 2024. For the next eleven weeks, our discussions will revolve around the polycrisis afflicting the globe with four subtopics. The first will be the four most important crises, followed by how Georgism can alleviate these crises, which will then be followed by how to make Georgism more politically palatable, and will conclude by discussing different Georgist policy solutions.  Our first panelist will be Mr. Fred Harrison, a long-time friend of the Henry George School, who will be discussing the four biggest threats emerging from the global polycrisis. Mr. Harrison received his bachelor's from Oxford University and his master's from the University of London. He is a veteran journalist who has served in multiple news agencies such as The People and Wellington Journal. In 1988 he became the Research Director of the Land Research Trust, London, and has advised several corporations and international governments on tax and economic policy. Fred places an emphasis on the housing market and its interaction with the economy as a whole. He is the author of many books, including The Corruption of Economics, The Power in the Land, and A Philosophy for a Fair Society, all of which critique mainstream economic thinking. Together, we discussed how the current tax system worsens inequality, why Georgist policies can reduce these inequalities, and Boston's stark disparities in life expectancy.

The antitrust law bubble, particularly in the U.S., has in recent years focussed on the mantra of promoting efficiency above all else. In the age of the global polycrisis and increasing corporate concentration and power in numerous sectors, should this bubble be popped? Dr Cristina Caffarra, leading competition economist, joins Barry Nigro and Matthew Hall to discuss the wider issues antitrust and competition law enforcement should be considering, which was the focus of a January 2024 Brussels conference described as the "Anti-Davos" and "Woodstock of Antitrust". Listen to this episode to learn more about the "Antitrust, Regulation, and the Next World Order" conference led by Dr Caffarra, why antitrust law should be taking a wider approach than efficiency and narrow consumer welfare and the links with trade and industrial policy.
