Podcasts about protests

Illinois congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh was charged earlier this week with federal conspiracy charges for protesting outside of Broadview ICE Processing Center last month.Along with five others, Abughazaleh was indicted on felony charges for assaulting and conspiring to injure law enforcement officers. The 11-page indictment alleges the protesters “banged aggressively” on a federal agent's car and “pushed against the vehicle to hinder and impede its movement.” They also allegedly scratched the word “pig” onto the vehicle.Abughazaleh, a candidate in the Democratic primary for Illinois's 9th Congressional District, spoke to The Intercept Briefing just days after the charges were unsealed. “This case against me, this indictment, is a clear attack on free speech, freedom of association, the right to protest,” she says. “This indictment is so breathtaking in just how obviously it is trying to criminalize the right to protest. And it's ludicrous to me that any elected official that's sworn to protect the Constitution wouldn't look at it and think, where the hell are we right now?”At an earlier protest at the same facility, the former journalist was filmed being slammed to the ground by ICE agents. That video went viral sparking outrage, and she's urging other elected officials to fight back. “I feel like we as citizens are told to do so much — and then our leaders aren't matching that. Part of it is they're scared. This is a scary time. And there are threats from the administration, but also supporters. We've had a rise in political violence,” Abughazaleh challenges. “And this sounds callous, but you asked hundreds of thousands of people to vote for you. You asked to represent them. This is a job. You need to do your job even if you're scared, because that's what people deserve from their leaders.”The protesters are set to appear in court for their arraignment on November 5. If convicted, they could face up to six years in prison.Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

Zur Waffe greifen, bereit sein, Menschen zu töten, und das Land, das in früheren Kriegen „Vaterland“ genannt wurde, mit Gewalt zu verteidigen? Der Publizist und Podcaster Ole Nymoen verweigert sich. Und begründet dies in seinem Buch „Warum ich niemals für mein Land kämpfen würde“: einem Plädoyer gegen den Krieg, das in Deutschland für Aufsehen gesorgt hat. Wie kann diese Haltung vertreten werden angesichts der Weltlage und vor dem Hintergrund der Debatte um die Wehrpflicht? Der studierte Politikwissenschaftler versteht seine Weigerung zugleich als Protest für mehr kollektive Selbstbestimmung.

On Saturday, October 18, 2025, Hudson Mohawk Magazine Roaming Labor Correspondent Willie Terry attended the Albany and Troy "No King Day Protest." The No Kings protests, also known internationally as the No Dictators or No Tyrants protests, were demonstrations against what the organizers describe as the authoritarian policies of Donald Trump and corruption in his administration. In part 3 of this series of labor segments, Willie recorded various speakers at the event and interviewed participants about why they were at the No King protests.

Another revisited interview from the Conflicted Community Interview archive this week, as we get ready for more Conflicted episodes coming soon… This time, the FULL interview with Hamza Howidy - a Gazan who years ago was forced to flee to Europe, telling us about his experiences and his vision for a post-Hamas Gaza… – This week, Thomas speaks with Hamza Howidy, a Palestinian activist originally from Gaza now living in exile in Germany. Hamza shares his extraordinary story of growing up under Hamas rule and the constant threat of Israeli military action on the one hand, and the brutality of Hamas on the other.   Hamza was forced to leave Gaza due to his involvement in protests against Hamas in 2019 and 2023, taking the dangerous journey across the Mediterranean from Turkey to Europe to do so. Hamza offers a vital and nuanced perspective on life in Gaza, the internal political dynamics between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority, and his vision for a future free from Hamas's governance. He candidly discusses the brutal realities faced by those who dissent against Hamas and his own experiences of protest and imprisonment.

Am 1. November jährt sich zum ersten Mal das Unglück von Novi Sad. Zu Mittag war damals das Vordach des Hauptbahnhofes eingestürzt. 14 Menschen kamen vor Ort  ums Leben, zwei weitere erlagen später ihren Verletzungen. Das Unglück löste die größte Protestwelle in Serbien aus. Der Vorfall wurde zum Symbol für die korrupte Regierung von Präsident Aleksandar Vučić. Der Politikwissenschaftler Vedran Džihić vom Österreichischen Institut für Internationale Politik (oiip) lässt im Gespräch mit Solmaz Khorsand das vergangene Jahr Revue passieren, analysiert die Protestbewegung, die mit brachialer Gewalt vom Staatsapparat niedergeschlagen wird und die viel zu spät in die Gänge gekommene Solidarität Europas für die Demonstrierenden.   Wir würden uns sehr freuen, wenn Du "Ganz offen gesagt" auf einem der folgenden Wege unterstützt:Werde Unterstützer:in auf SteadyKaufe ein Premium-Abo auf AppleKaufe Artikel in unserem FanshopSchalte Werbung in unserem PodcastFeedback bitte an redaktion@ganzoffengesagt.atTranskripte und Fotos zu den Folgen findest Du auf podcastradio.at

Mit 15 Jahren wird Greta Thunberg zur Ikone. Ihre Schulstreiks lösen die Fridays-for-Future-Bewegung aus – und bringen das Thema Klimaschutz weltweit auf die Agenda. *** Direkt zur Serie unter: wwww.sz.de/greta ****   Sieben Jahre später ist das Mädchen von damals eine Frau – und macht mit ihrem Engagement für Gaza Schlagzeilen. Vor allem in Deutschland wird Greta Thunberg Antisemitismus vorgeworfen. Die SZ-Journalistin Vera Schroeder möchte verstehen, wie aus der Heldin eine Figur wurde, die immer stärker polarisiert. In einer Zeit, in der die Klimaziele in weite Ferne rücken, macht sie sich auf eine sehr persönliche Spurensuche. Und erzählt die Geschichte von Thunbergs einzigartigem Aufstieg noch mal neu.

In der heutigen Folge spricht Thilo mit Maryam.fyi —sie ist Musikerin und Ärztin. Anlass für das Gespräch ist die „Stadtbild“-Aussage von Friedrich Merz und die anschließenden „Wir sind die Töchter“- Proteste. Thilo wollte von Maryam wissen, wie sie als Person mit Migrationshintergrund auf dieses Thema blickt. Im Gespräch geht es darum, warum Rassismus in Deutschland für viele nie aufgehört hat, wie sich Diskurse verschieben und abwertende Sprache normalisiert wird. Außerdem zieht Thilo Vergleiche zu seiner Recherche in Amerika — und wie schnell Situationen kippen können. Maryam spricht auch über Aktivismus, Erschöpfung und die Kraft von Community, über Musik als Raum von Verbundenheit – und darüber, warum ihr Song „Queen“ für viele zu einem Lied über Stärke und Zusammenhalt geworden ist. Ein Gespräch über Zugehörigkeit, Sprache, Privilegien und die Frage, wie wir uns gegenseitig Halt geben können – in einer Zeit, in der Empörung schnell vergeht, aber Rassismus bleibt.

They break down how billionaire donors like George Soros and Neville Roy Singham—allegedly linked to the Chinese Communist Party—help fund, organize, and legally shield groups like Antifa. This episode explores the Trump administration’s push to label Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, the hurdles facing law enforcement, and the growing influence of the “protest industrial complex” on U.S. politics and public safety.

Adam Swart is the founder and CEO of Crowds on Demand — a company that literally organizes protests, rallies, and PR stunts for clients across the U.S. In this interesting conversation, Henry and Danny dig into how this shadowy industry actually works: who pays for demonstrations, how they're staffed, and where ethics fit in when civic action becomes a paid service. Swart claims his firm turned down $20 million in offers to organize anti-Trump protests, and insists “paid protestors” aren't what conspiracy theories make them out to be.But Danny pushes back — asking whether commodifying civic activism cheapens democracy itself.

In this episode, we explore the growing divide between political rhetoric and reality, from warnings of an imminent dictatorship by DNC Chairman Ken Martin to Joe Biden's claims of “dark days” for free speech. The discussion highlights censorship pressures on social media platforms, including Elon Musk's struggles with the Biden administration, and contrasts them with street-level protests in London's Tower Hamlets, where Muslim counter-protesters marched freely while others faced restrictions. The episode then shifts to U.S. domestic policy, examining Democratic proposals to expand benefits for illegal immigrants while cutting funding for rural hospitals, and exposing patterns of government spending, foreign aid, and media funding. Through protests, policies, and budgets, this episode underscores a narrative of displacement, mismanagement, and political strategy.

Today, we break down the chaos across politics, media, and society. From warnings of a looming dictatorship by the DNC and Joe Biden's “dark days” claims on free speech, to Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg navigating government pressure, the media landscape is under the microscope. We also dive into protests in London's Tower Hamlets and the implications of unchecked counter-protests, along with the U.S. political fight over illegal immigrant benefits, rural hospital funding, foreign aid, and media bailouts. Amid all this, we analyze private sector job growth, economic recovery, and the complex web of policies shaping American lives.

"The power of a crowd lies not just in its size, but in the perceptions it shapes."Episode SummaryIn this episode of The Gun Experiment, we sit down with Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on Demand, for an eye-opening conversation about crowds, political demonstrations, free speech, and gun rights. Adam pulls back the curtain on his business, which specializes in orchestrating paid crowds and events for everything from political rallies to guerilla marketing stunts. We dive deep into the ethical challenges of paid protests, the influence of media, the dynamics of social movements, and the complex intersection of money, activism, and public perception.Along the way, Adam gets candid about evolving his company's approach, shares insights into how paid demonstrations may impact the Second Amendment narrative, and discusses the dangers of social media-fueled division in our country. We also touch on current events like campus protests, political polarization, and the responsibilities of both media and citizens when it comes to validating what we see.

ICE agents are detaining thousands of people a day from communities across the country. But people are resisting. And it's having an impact. Millions have protested in recent weeks, from the #NoKings rally to demonstrations in front of immigration detention centers, and protests against ICE in their communities. Neighbors in one Chicago suburb pushed back by yelling and honking car horns when ICE agents descended on their community. Elsewhere they've handed out thousands of whistles to neighbors at risk. And people are lifting up their cell phone cameras and their voices, and putting their bodies on the line to foil ICE raids in cities around the country.BIG NEWS!
