SEASON 3 EPISODE 75: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN Special Edition (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Some time over Thanksgiving in Nantucket the light bulb went off over Joe Biden's head and he finally realized that no, the norms and traditions and institutions to which he and most of the rest of us have dedicated our lives did NOT miraculously re-grow, did NOT suddenly spring, fully restored and intact, from the ground. He saw that not only was his son about to go to prison because of his own foolish decision to not interfere with an enfeebled Department of Justice, and because of the dictator it let get away, who would now aim his DOJ at Hunter Biden - and Joe Biden - and anybody else - for personal revenge. The President figured this out and pulled his son out of harm's way. And much of he left attacked him for it. They are Morons. I don't care about Hunter Biden, particularly. I care about the fact that we are 48 days away from a nascent military dictatorship taking over this government, supported by an unknown percentage of the population that wants to see Hunter and Joe Biden hanging from construction cranes parading through the streets, and wants to see Trump in power for life. A We JUST got one more guy out of their sights and we JUST shoved one more plotline up Trump, and up Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller and whichever other lunatics Trump wants to take over the asylum. And countless liberals – and anti-Trumpers – think this will actually provide cover for Trump pardoning the January 6thinsurrectionists because apparently for the last ten years they have been hallucinating and thinking Trump has ever bothered to seek cover for anything. Or they think we should be "better" than them. The Trumpists are planning to put us in camps. I don't care if we are better than them or worse than them or monstrous to them. If somebody's going to go to camps, it ain't going to be us, it's got to be them. End of debate. In addition to explaining why this was not just the right decision but should be a template of thousands of further pardons, permit me to excoriate a bunch of the clowns who cannot see the forest for the trees. Or the fact that the forest is on fire. And then for giggles we have the moronic comments of Nate Silver and Dinesh D'Souza, complaining about pardons when he himself got an undeserved pardon. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Attacks on voting rights are as old as the U.S. itself. Many people are not aware of the long standing history of attacks on this constitutionally protected right. Efforts to restrict voting access have not abated, and it's incumbent upon all of us to understand how these efforts have evolved over the years. All over the U.S., but particularly in the South and in swing states, there are constant attempts to block ballot access for those who are deemed by some as unworthy to participate in the democratic process.Today, I discuss that history with human rights lawyer, Qasim Rashid. Qasim is a tireless warrior for the underrepresented and the marginalized. His recent run for Congress in his native Chicago left him even more energized and focused on the issues that affect Black, brown, indigenous, LGBTQ and economically disadvantaged people.

Since anti-affirmative action activist Edward Blum used a group of Asian students as his battering ram to take down affirmative action, Qasim and I speak to the issue of alleged anti-Asian discrimination at elite universities, and how this accusation led to a Supreme Court victory against affirmative action, when an earlier bid with a white student had failed to deliver the success Blum wanted. Join us next week for a round-up on the issue of voting rights with Qasim. CTP - Biblical view / World view, which Rules you?

Qasim Rashid is a human rights lawyer who built his career fighting for survivors of domestic violence, asylum seekers, and low income communities. He and his family immigrated from Pakistan to the United States with his family when he was five. As a child, Qasim grew up in Section 8 housing in DuPage county. Qasim's parents, who were both teachers, instilled in him a deep commitment of service to humanity and upholding justice. Throughout his legal career, Qasim has seen how the country's laws and systems unfairly worked for those who already had money and power and left everyone else behind. He's running for Congress to demand justice and ensure that the government works for everyone. Outside of public service, Qasim is an author, lawyer, and dad joke aficionado. The loves of his and Ayesha's lives are their three children, aged 14, 10, and 7. They are trying to convince Qasim to adopt a special breed of dog that gets sad when you feed it cantaloupe…known as a melon collie.What You Will Hear:Qasim's upbringing and being an immigrantAnti-blackness and immigrationThe depth of Islamophobia in the USAPost 9/11 unity mythHow Qasim got in to law and his specific practiceService to humanityThe power of collaborative educationGun control and the right wing media's indoctrination tacticsPolice brutality and the injustice system in the USQualified immunity and psychological testingClimate crisis and poverty statsWhat true government powered by the people could look likeEngaging the global majorityQuotes:“In Pakistan I'm not really Pakistani because I was raised in the United States and the United States I'm not really American because I wasn't born here and so there's a constant struggle that's in the back of your mind and it's the duality that society wants you to force you into a box.”“ I've been extraordinarily fortunate to have brilliant scholars guide me and teach me and the good fortune to have the sense to shut up and listen.”“If you wanna talk to me about your values, show me your actions and service to humanity, ““For me greatest form of worship is to serve all humanity.”“Service to others is the rent you pay for your time here on Earth.” - Muhammed Ali“I think foundationally it's important that people find their comfort zone and learn to step out of it.

It seems we're stuck in an endless cycle these days -- gun violence, thoughts and prayers, calls for legislative action, complete inaction, move on to the next tragedy. Wash, rinse, repeat. On today's episode, I'm speaking with human rights lawyer, Qasim Rashid, who has become an outspoken voice on social media for social justice in all forms. He's an extremely knowledgeable resource when it comes to understanding the history of the United States' obsession with gun culture. He helps us understand the resistance to common sense gun laws and how this issue ties back to segregation and Jim Crow. We also discuss ways to take action to ensure this pattern does not continue indefinitely.

We speak with American Muslim elected officials, actresses, founders, and of course, Amma and Agha, as we come full-circle to just exactly what Shahjehan's people have done.

Qasim Rashid has held many roles—human rights lawyer, prolific writer, media consultant, political candidate, volunteer prison chaplain, avid Tweeter—one of which his wife convinced him to pursue. He joins us on American Muslim Project to discuss his newest book, how he got to where he is today, and advocating for a more compassionate tomorrow. We dive in with Ramadan 2021, a remarkable one given COVID and the current state of Palestinians and Uyghurs. Shared IHOP reminiscences make an appearance. Qasim outlines the theology behind Ahmadi Muslims, the minority faith he is an active member of. We discuss the motivations behind his long-rejected debut children's book, Hannah and the Ramadan Gift, and the moment his four-year-old daughter saw herself on the cover. Are we any closer to normalizing Islam in the United States? Qasim touches on other varied topics he's well-informed on, all with eloquence and humility. How the reality of American Muslims building this country and fighting in every war needs to be more deliberately communicated; the potential positives of being trolled, which he calls collateral education; helping our nation become a more perfect union and making the American Dream accessible to all; the number of times he was pulled over by police post-9/11.… We're moved by his embodiment of humanity, present in his many, many actions, constantly asserted beliefs, and showing compassion just for compassion's sake.

A few weeks ago, Keith had the pleasure of welcoming to Southern Fried Asian human rights lawyer, policy advocate, and candidate for State Senate in the 28th district of Virginia, Qasim Rashid. With less than two weeks to go until voters go to the polls in Virginia, Keith and Qasim talk about why he's running and why it's important to get involved in politics at every level of society. Qasim reflects on being a candidate running for public office while also being an immigrant during the Trump era (1:30) and how politicians exploit racism to distract from economic warfare between the haves and have nots (5:15). They also discuss how hard it is to get voters motivated for off-year and local elections but why it's absolutely crucial to get out the vote for these kinds of elections (11:00) and why organizing is the answer (13:00). He also reflects on the experience running for office in a part of Virginia that is traditionally very rural and conservative (16:00) before looking back at his own immigration story (18:15). Finally, Qasim shares his idea for bringing a food festival to Stafford County to celebrate the local cuisine of the area (29:00). Even though the election is right around the corner, you can still donate to Qasim's people-powered campaign here. You can also go here to learn how to be a volunteer.

He is a Muslim of a branch of Islam you might not have heard of before. He also has a podcast with a friend where one of their goals is to remind us all that Muslims, Christians, and Jews used to get along better than we seem to lately. Qasim is a big believer in the power of dialogue between different kinds of people as a means of bringing a better and more loving world into being which, makes him a perfect fit for this show.

Guests on the show are going to have opinions and beliefs about better ways to do life together, and sometimes those ways involve political opinions, but the show is not, and I am not, tied unthinkingly to any particular party. As much as I might lean more "blue" on several issues, it doesn’t mean that I want to close down discussion with something who might lean red for their reasons. Much of what is missing in the political discourse in our country at the moment is serious and civil engagement about the issues that matter to us all.
