Before Anne Bonny. Before Grace O'Malley. There was Sayyida al-Hurra — the Pirate Queen of the Mediterranean. In this episode of For the Love of History, we uncover the extraordinary true story of Sayyida al-Hurra, a Muslim woman who rose to power in the late 1400s and became one of the most feared pirates in history. Born in Granada during the violence of the Reconquista, Sayyida was forced to flee Spain as Catholic rulers Ferdinand and Isabella expelled, enslaved, and murdered thousands of Muslims. That injustice would shape her destiny. After becoming governor of Tetouan (Tétouan), Morocco, Sayyida didn't just rule — she fought back. Partnering with the legendary Ottoman pirate Hayreddin Barbarossa (Redbeard), she launched relentless naval attacks against Spanish and Portuguese ships, dominating the Mediterranean and earning her title as the unrivaled pirate queen. Her piracy wasn't just about wealth; it was about defense, revenge, and protecting displaced Muslim communities. This episode explores: The Reconquista and the forced expulsion of Muslims from Spain How Sayyida al-Hurra became a female political leader and naval commander Her alliance with Barbarossa, one of history's most famous pirates Pirate warfare, ransom, and Mediterranean power politics How piracy rebuilt Tetouan into a thriving city Why European powers feared her — and her people adored her Her unprecedented marriage to the Sultan of Morocco on her own terms Sayyida al-Hurra's legacy lives on in the walls of Tetouan, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in the history of women who refused to be erased. If you love pirate history, women in power, Islamic history, and stories of resistance against empire, this episode is for you. Grab your sword, your most dramatic blouse, and let's set sail.

With the world getting worse and worse, the cause of labor remains the hope of the world. With that in mind, we start with headlines from workers on another general strike in Italy, the nationwide Starbucks strike, nurses and Amazon drivers unionizing with the Teamsters, id software workers joining the CWA, and many more. AI is once again exposed as relying on the labor of low paid, highly exploited workers, this time at surveillance company Flock. The New School is the latest institution in higher education being actively dismantled by its administration, we discuss the student-faculty fightback. In These Times this week has an update on the fight by worker organizer Willian Giménez González against ICE attacks. Portuguese workers were the latest to launch a general strike this week, and we discuss the tactics and strategy that would be needed to actually pull one off here in the US.

A economia portuguesa parece melhor vista de fora do que de dentro? E por que razão a América de Donald Trump detesta tanto a União Europeia? Em dia de greve geral e em época de gripe, o Eixo do Mal teve Ângelo Correia e Cecília Meireles em substituição de Daniel Oliveira e Clara Ferreira Alves. Governo e CIP dizem que adesão à greve foi mínima (entre 0% a 10%) e que “a economia real” funcionou, mas os Sindicatos apontam mais de 80% de participação. CGTP fala em 3 milhões de trabalhadores; UGT ameaça nova paralisação nos próximos meses. A greve, que contesta o anteprojeto de revisão da legislação laboral em debate na Concertação Social, foi o tema de abertura de um Eixo de Mal gravado no dia da paralisação.

The title of this symposium, Catching the Clues, Changing the Cause of Lysosomal Storage Disease: Illuminating Complex Pathway of Rare Disease with Fabry Disease, Alpha-Mannosidosis, in Focus.This is a disclaimer: Following discussion does not focus on or depict any specific products manufactured by any pharmaceutical company. Patient cases are for medical discussion only and reflect the faculty own experience. They represent a typical clinical scenario. This presentation in part and whole may not be reproduced and not copy and not recording.I'm Dr. Eto from Tokyo, Japan, and the three distinguished speakers: Dr. Nicole Muschol from Germany, Eppendorf University. Professor Aguiar, the Portuguese, The Inborn Errors of Metabolism Reference Center, and also Professor Robert Hopkin, Cincinnati Children's Hospital, United States.The purpose of this symposium: Explore the patient journey across the LSD continuum, focusing on the unmet needs and diagnosis, and treatment initiation, and long-term management, and utilize case-based discussion focused on Alpha-mannosidosis, Fabry disease to highlight disease-specific challenges. Access where challenge persist in patient journey, and where tailored intervention can improve outcomes.Introduction of LSD patient journey with a spotlight on Fabry disease, Alpha-mannosidosis. Challenge to the diagnosis and then treatment and monitoring. Common LSD challenges over the patient journey, as shown here, and at least more than 70 different lysosomal diseases known. Incidence is about 1:5,000-1:8,000 in newborn. In the literature, much higher incidence.Multi-organ manifestation in many organ involved, and clinical heterogeneity are very complicated. The new screen method has been established already. Identify patient presymptomatically. That important by the newborn screening, something like that, early treatment essential. After the diagnosis treatment start, early and the presymptomatic treatment initiation, and usually delayed diagnosis, delayed treatment. Perceived burden of treatment may delay treatment start in patient milder form. Milder form is very difficult in the many cases, and particularly for Fabry disease also.After the treatment start and then monitoring, as you know, we discussed about the monitoring rely on the combination of clinical assessment, laboratory test, biomarkers, and imaging, and several other factors. Biomarkers and ADA drug assay lack standardization. Actually, the Alpha, and Beta, or [inaudible 00:03:19] Fabry disease, different ADA-titled measurement. Also, the patient experience between clinical visit, ERT infusion is under-reported.We discuss today two topics, two disease. Alpha-mannosidosis is very rare. In Japan, only few cases, and caused by the deficiency of Alpha-mannosidase, an accumulation of mannose-rich oligosaccharides and inheritance of autosomal-recessive. Age of onset is a very early period and younger period, adult period. Incidence approximately is very rare, 1:500,000.There are diseases we don't know exactly. If you have a treatment, maybe your incidence is much increased, and severe or attenuated [inaudible 00:04:09]. Alpha-mannosidosis is still a new disorder, and must differentiate from Mucopolysaccharidosis.On the other hand, the Fabry disease I think is very common. There are many discussion already in the past 20 years. Deficiency of a-Gal A, accumulation of Gb3⁵­­ or Lyso-Gb3, many other glycoprotein, which a terminal of a-Gal A, and X-chromosome. This is very important X-chromosomal inheritance. In case of this, and usually, female does not affect, but in case of Fabry, more of female also involved.First symptom, imagine at any age. Then incidence about 1:40,000-1:60,000. But depending on the country, as you know, classical form, about 1:40,000. Recently, after the newborn screening, late onset, very high incidence. About 90% of it—actually, we carried out a newborn screening in Japan—90% are late onset. But the clinical variety, so many clinical varieties, so incidents here, 1:3,000-1:4,000, something like that. Now, using the Alpha-mannosidosis and Fabry disease as an illustrative example, we will explore these disorders.

We caught up with Declan Watters to learn more about his innovative and powerful tech for good medical app that he has developed. Declan Watters, MediSnap Who are we talking to, is it a logical journey to what you do now? I'm Declan Watters, a practicing paramedic and co-founder of MediSnap. The journey makes complete sense when you look back, though I didn't plan it this way. I started in pharmacy at age 14, working under Jim McCormick at Magees Pharmacy in Letterkenny. Spent 22 years in pharmaceutical retail, progressing through Cara Pharmacy Group, learning everything about medications - from otc, brand, generic and trade along with dispensing and wholesale operations. Then I moved into paramedicine about six years ago, completing my BSc (Hons) in Paramedic Science from UCC this year. I also have a BSc in Computer Science from LYIT back in 2005, which I honestly thought I'd never use professionally. Turns out, having pharmacy knowledge, emergency medicine experience, and computing skills is the exact combination needed to build MediSnap. The platform exists because I live this problem daily. When you meet someone in an emergency situation and they can't tell you what medications they're on - unconscious patients, confused elderly people, language barriers, flustered family members- you're making critical decisions with incomplete information. we built the tool I needed without actually knowing what we had. What are you currently working on? MediSnap - an AI-powered medication identification platform for healthcare professionals. You photograph medication packaging, prescriptions,bottle, handwritten or blister packs, and within 3-5 seconds you get instant identification plus critical drug interaction alerts. Rapidly painting a picture and allowing the medical professional to move ahead with treatment and cuts minutes googling medications, we cant know them all! We've just launched on Google Play Store, with iOS coming shortly. The platform supports multiple languages - English, Irish, Ukrainian, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish - because language barriers are a massive issue in emergency healthcare. Especially the Cyrillic alphabet recognition, it read Ukrainian language and packaging. Right now we are managing rapid growth whilst preparing for regulatory approval through HPRA (Health Products Regulatory Authority). We've gone from company registration in October to 352 registered healthcare professionals using it operationally in emergency situations. We've had nearly 100,000 website hits and over 3,500 people checking out the platform. That's all organic growth - healthcare workers telling their colleagues about it. We dont have marketing or a budget. I'm also in conversations with Enterprise Ireland for seed funding, and we've got national media coverage coming. It's been a whirlwind few weeks. How long did it take you to build up the app, and how has it evolved over time? From company registration to live product took about six weeks. We launched the beta in late October 2025, and we've just gone commercial on Android. It was built on a shoestring budget whilst working full-time as a paramedic - evenings, nights, weekends. But we have been developing this this for the best part of 2025. I should mention - I have a silent partner, my Co-Founder and CTO, who handles all the technical development. We've been best mates since childhood, so working together just clicks. A lot of the best decisions happen over a pint or on the phone late at night, talking through problems. He prefers to stay out of the spotlight, but I couldn't have built this without him. Having someone you trust completely makes the hard days manageable. We compiled the proprietary medication database using my 22 years of pharmaceutical knowledge, designed the clinical workflows based on what I actually need in the field, and handled all the testing with colleagues. My co-founder built the platform architecture and makes sure everything actually works tech...

He was then sold to the Ottoman admiral Selman Reis, who took him with his fleet to Egypt and Yemen during his wars with the Portuguese; carried, after the admiral's death, by the admiral's nephew Mustafa Bayram to Gujarat on the western coast of India; and finally, when the Mughal army invaded Gujarat in 1534, taken into imperial service along with thousands of Eurasian and Abyssinian slaves. Here he rose to the position of water-carrier for the Mughal Emperor Humayun and chronicled this experience in a remarkable , Persian text called Tazkirah-i Vaqi`at or “memoir of events”. In Slavery in the Early Mughal World: The Life and Thoughts of Jawhar Aftabachi (1520s–1580s) (Oxford UP, 2025), Ali Anooshahr uses Jawhar's life and memoirs as a unique window into slavery, selfhood, and the rise of the early modern Indian Ocean world. Bringing a micro-historical study to a "subaltern Mughal author" offers the opportunity to reassess the history of slavery in South Asia from an original perspective and to reframe the connected history of the early modern world. Jawhar's life shows in vivid detail the eruption of the Mediterranean and Black Sea cultural regions into the Indian Ocean world, shedding light onto the collapse of older bonds of interdependency in the face of impersonal structures of new centralized states, and bearing witness to the process of individualization of people which was experienced not as a triumphalist "rise of the self" but as alienation. Ali Anooshahr is a historian of Mughal India as well as the "Persianate World" during the early modern era. He received his B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin in 1998, and his M.A. (2002) and Ph.D. (2005) from UCLA. He is a Professor of History at the University of California, Davis. His books include The Ghazi Sultans and the Frontiers of Islam: A Comparative Study of the Late Medieval and Early Modern Periods (Routledge, 2009), Turkestan and the Rise of Eurasian Empires: A Study of Politics and Invented Traditions (Oxford, 2018), and (edited with Ebba Koch) The Mughal Empire from Jahangir to Shah Jahan: Art, Architecture, Politics, Law and Literature (The Marg Foundation, March 2019). His research has been supported by fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Mellon Foundation, and the Hellman Foundations, among others. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

The Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos is renowned for her large-scale sculptural pieces which have featured in galleries across the world. She has used materials such as fabric, plastic and even tampons to construct her works. In June 2018 her exhibition I'm Your Mirror opened at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. For this Joana made a series of new sculptures, including an enormous Venetian-style mask, made of overlapping mirrors. The construction of the huge mask was a process full of challenges as the enormous structure took shape in Joana's Lisbon studio. In this programme Anna McNamee follows Joana through the process of working with the mirrors and explores how the piece is designed, shaped and packed up ready to begin its journey to Bilbao.
