Willis examined how to support the Black trans community and helped organize one of the largest marches for Black trans lives in 2020. In today's episode, Willis speaks with NPR's Brittany Luse about her journey as a Black trans woman emerging into adulthood and the intersectional framework that shapes her activism.

It's become crystal clear that we need to change our approach to tackling the climate crisis, to work in collaboration with Indigenous Peoples, Nations and knowledge keepers. As historic stewards of nature, they have rich insights, expertise, and perspectives to share about how we might move forward.But that doesn't just mean collaborating with Indigenous elders or scientists. We also need to listen to and learn from Indigenous youth who will be the stewards of the future. That's why I'm so excited to have Autumn Peltier join me on the show. She's the Chief Water Commissioner for the Anishinabek Nation and an Indigenous rights and water activist who's been using her voice to pursue justice since she was eight years old.In the last 10 years, she's addressed Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, spoken at the UN General Assembly and World Economic Forum, been shortlisted for the International Children's Peace Prize four times and featured in Maclean's top 50 Canadian power list. She's also received multiple honours and awards and recently released her first documentary, The Water Walker, produced by Seeing Red Six Nations on HBO Canada.In this episode, she shares her experience growing up learning to care for the water and the land, connects justice issues like water rights and violence against Indigenous women and inspires hope for new and better collaboration in the future.  ***If you like this episode, please subscribe, like and share it with your networks.

Should we ally with the Left or the Right? On one hand, the Liberal party has appealed to Muslim rights as a minority group, while the Conservative party aligns with our moral values. Muslim political involvement is a fairly recent trend, and our alliances speak to more than just our personal preferences. How can we secure our rights in a secular democracy while also pushing back against policies that go against our beliefs, such as the open promotion of LGBTQ ideas in our schools? Imam Tom Facchine invites Dr. Mobeen Vaid to recount the history of Muslim political involvement and activism, as well as to discuss ways to maneuver the political landscape while staying true to our faith. 

The death in March 2023 of US disability rights activist Judy Heumann provoked grief but also joyful celebration of a leader whose strategic instincts and sheer grit helped secure victories that improved peoples' lives. Heumann never lost her faith in activism - building power at street level. She led persons with disabilities and their allies in blocking traffic, occupying buildings and often literally putting their bodies on the line for the cause. Three disability rights advocates – Catalina Devandas, Alberto Vasquez and Peter Torres Fremlin reflect on that history and ask whether activism is still a central tool for their community. They discuss factors like inclusion and identity as sources of both strength and division, and the pros and cons of integrating disability rights work in the wider human rights movement.

“Japan assist, not interfere.” Those are the four words that summarize Japan's foreign policy stance towards ASEAN countries, told Kiyoteru Tsutsui, the Professor of Sociology and Director of the Japan Program at The Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center (APARC), Stanford University, in the conversation. This statement is reminiscent of Ryu Hassan's comment in Endgame's earlier episodes with one of the prominent neurologists in Indonesia. He said that a happy country is a country in which its citizens refrain from infringing upon the personal boundaries of others. Japan serves as a salient example of this phenomenon. An intriguing question, then, arises: is this 'knowing one's place' attitude that is ingrained in Japanese society also manifest in its political outlook? Kiyoteru Tsutsui's discussion with Indonesian entrepreneur, educator, and 2022-23 visiting scholar at APARC, Stanford University—Gita Wirjawan—reflects upon the 46 years of Japan-ASEAN friendship which its foundation was built by Prime Minister Takeo Fukuda. Nearly half a century later, Japan still consistently demonstrated steadfast actions to help Southeast Asia's economy, health sector, and education that can help the region foster its soft power. The three 'hear-to-heart' promises resulted in ASEAN's courteous manner toward Japan, a country that Muthiah Alagappa refers to as the 'stabilizer of the Asia-Pacific region'. Moreover, the author of "Human Rights and the State: The Power of Ideas and the Realities of International Politics" (listed among the 10 best books of 2022 in Japan) also touches on the ethnic discrimination issue in Japan and how international human rights institutions could help to address this problem; risk of a Taiwan invasion for Japan; modern history of Japan; and his optimism on the future of ASEAN. #Endgame #GitaWirjawan #KiyoteruTsutsui ---------------- SGPP Indonesia Master of Public Policy March 2023 Intake: admissions.sgpp.ac.id admissions@sgpp.ac.id https://wa.me/628111522504 Other "Endgame" episodes on ASEAN: https://endgame.id/scotmarciel https://endgame.id/martynatalegawa https://endgame.id/kishoremahbubani Visit and subscribe: @sgppindonesia @visinemapictures

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Summary of “Animal Rights Activism Trends to Look Out for in 2023” by Animal Agriculture Alliance, published by Aashish Khimasia on February 23, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. A blog-post by a member of the Animal Agriculture Alliance (AAA) has identified several trends in animal rights activism that they project for 2023. These trends are likely to be causes for concern for the animal agriculture industry, and the piece was written to make AAA supporters aware of them. Recognising these trends and identifying the views held on these animal advocacy tactics by proponents of animal agriculture may provide advocates with valuable insights. In this post, I list the key trends identified by the article and bullet point tactics highlighted by the article which are of particular interest. I'm thankful to “The Cranky Vegan” for bringing this article to my attention through their linked video. Linking CAFOs to negative human and environmental health Drawing attention to the detrimental effects of CAFOs (concentrated animal feeding operations) to human and environmental health Using historical precedents of CAFOs being charged in court such as in North Carolina and Seattle in messaging Exploring cases where ethnic minorities have experienced disproportionate negative health impacts of CAFOs This strategy may create opposition to CAFOs from individuals and organisations that may not be compelled by animal-focused driven arguments, and could be further integrated into outreach and media messaging. Referring to historical precedents of CAFOs being charged with breaching environmental regulations may help to legitimise messaging against them. The use of undercover footage in court and media Using undercover footage from factory farms to motivate arguments in court that such operations engage in unfair competition, false advertising, market distortion and fraud Using undercover footage from factory farms pressure retailers to cut ties with such farms Using undercover footage from animal rescue missions from factory farms as evidence against charges of trespassing and theft The continued and increased use of undercover footage from factory farms is clearly concerning for animal agriculture, given the extensive efforts to block this such as through so called Ag-gag laws. However, the suppression of undercover footage from factory farms may lead to increased media attention on these items and public scrutiny on the conditions of factory farms. Indeed, in a recent case, Direct Action Everywhere activists who were being prosecuted after liberating piglets from a Smithfield Foods farm and releasing footage from their mission, were acquitted by the jury, despite the judge blocking the jury from viewing the footage taken. The aforementioned ways in which undercover footage may be used to aid the acquittal of activists, challenge farms in court and pressure retailers to cut ties with farms highlight the potency of combining undercover footage with legal action. Prioritising Youth Engagement Engaging young people in programmes that rival agricultural programmes like FFA and 4-H Fostering social disapproval of animal product consumption and normalising plant-based foods in classrooms, presenting the suffering caused by factory farming in an emotive way Educating young people and creating a shift in culture towards empathy, through recognising the suffering caused by animal agriculture and normalising plant-based foods, may challenge the image that animal agriculture is trying to maintain. This may be an important factor in changing consumption habits of future generations. Deconstructing legal personhood The use of the writ of habeas corpus, a right that protects against unlawful and indefinite imprisonment, as a way to challenge the legal personhood of animals by the Nonhuman Rights ...

Janet Jernigan has won countless awards in her life. Her more than 50-year career as a nonprofit leader is legendary as are the records she currently holds as an athlete. However, her true advocacy for others may be rooted in the mid-1960s when, as a student at Vanderbilt University, she began to advocate for equality by playing a role in the civil rights movement in Nashville. Let's hear how this remarkable woman finds time to care for herself and others in this Squeeze the Day.

WE ARE BACK! I hope you missed Into The Wild because we missed you! Our annual break is done & now time to write about the show. If you are active on social media & follow nature & conservation content, then some of you may have noticed that animal rights activism is quite often connected with wildlife conservation, but how connected are they? To find out more I spoke with animal rights campaigner, Dominic Dyer. I asked Dom where he things we have got things right in the UK & where he believes we have got things wrong. We also discuss the connection & ways that animal rights activism is connected & what it's done for wildlife conservation. We also managed, due to have apposing views, to sneak in a chat about trophy hunting, something we both agreed is needed more often.

As women and our allies continue to share knowledge, resources, and take action to dismantle oppressive structures, the progress we make is being met by oppositional movements. Here in America, the MRA Movement (or Men's Rights Activism) continues to expand its reach and intensify its rhetoric, with prominent MRA leader Matt Forney going so far as to say “Women should be terrorized by their men; it's the only thing that makes them behave better than chimps.” Meanwhile, crimes targeting women and girls have only continued to increase world-wide. The picture this paints seems clear – some men are aggressively pushing back to protect a repressive status quo and when women voice frustrations with the situation or – yet it is not uncommon to hear cultural and political leaders continuing to claim, as Sen. Josh Hawley did only a few months ago, that “men are under attack.” And believe it or not, I'm going to agree with Senator Hawley on that point… Men are under attack, but not from feminists and others fighting for equality; men are under attack from the very same patriarchal institutions which diminish the rest of us. They are taught that there is a small box of acceptability that they must fit into or be shamed (or worse). Most damaging of all, men continue to be taught not to speak up against other men in situations of injustice, not to upset the normativity of a repressive system which ultimately serves none of us. But if all of us work together, we have the collective power to put a stop to these systems and build a world that works for people of all genders. And that's why today I'm excited to be bringing men's voices to the table – men who are ready to pull away the wool patriarchy has draped over their eyes and speak out about injustices they've observed and even participated in. We're so grateful to share their courageous voices with you today. Andy Dunn (he/him) co-founded menswear brand Bonobos and served as CEO until its 2017 acquisition by Walmart.

In this extended show, as we continue to Honor Black History Month, activists Timothy Hughes and Elijah Whitesides look at Civil Rights activism today in light of the activism during the early '60s using Dr. King's Letter from a Birmingham Jail.

Unfortunately, it looks like not much has changed almost 60 years on from Dr. King and the letter he wrote responding to the white clergy in Birmingham.

Paynter is a registered nurse, a researcher, an activist, and the founder of an organization called Wellness Within, which works for reproductive justice, health equity, and prison abolition. Chabot is the director of health promotion at Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights, an organization that does public education, health promotion, and advocacy in Canada and globally. In the context of Action Canada's annual Sexual and Reproductive Health Awareness Week campaign, they speak about why advocacy in these areas is important, and about why in Canada today it is vital that it centre prison abolition, migrant justice, and other struggles led by people who are regularly "discarded" and dehumanized by dominant systems.

Corey shares her research on the professionalisation of animal rights organisations and how this is detrimental to a radical abolitionist message. We explore the importance of an evidence based focus for effective activism, and why the science backs an interconnected approach. We discuss the sociology of the movement through a vegan feminist lens and look at how we can dismantle the misogyny within. Corey shares insights on how we can challenge the invisibilisation of non human animals in history through a re imagining and retelling of their stories.

This week, Chris Cheng of Top Shot fame joins me on the show. After winning the title back in 2012, Chris told me his life changed forever. He used to spend most of his time doing work for leading tech companies, including Google. He still works in the tech space, but much of his time is now dedicated to the gun space--especially gun activism. He's worked with some of the most prominent gun-rights groups, and he's even testified on Capitol Hill. Now he's an advisor to the Asian Pacific American Gun Owners Association (APAGOA). His work as an Asian-American gun-rights advocate has made him the target of gun-control groups. We talk about how the Violence Policy Center singled him out in its newest report decrying the growth in Asian-American gun ownership. We also talk about APAGOA helping train new gun owners in the Asian-American community, and it filed its first brief at the Supreme Court. Then we talk about Chris's foray into the intersection between NFTs and firearms. He explains what an NFT (non-fungible token) is and how it could impact the future of the gun industry. Pretty fascinating stuff. Plus, I give an update on the latest in the David Chipman saga. And I talk to a Reload member, who just became a gun owner for the first time recently, living in New Jersey. It's a great episode. Give it a listen!

Today I talk with disability activist and scholar Ashley Shew, professor of Science, Technology, and Society at Virginia Tech. Ashley Shew is an associate professor of Science, Technology, and Society at Virginia Tech. Her current work, as part of a National Science Foundation CAREER grant, examines narratives disabled people share about technology, that are often different from dominant ways of thinking about disability tech. She is co-editor of three edited volumes in philosophy of technology, current co-editor-in-chief of Techné (the journal of the Society for Philosophy and Technology), and author of Animal Constructions and Technological Knowledge (2017). She works alongside other disabled people on issues of disability rights, inclusion, and activism through her local center for independent living and through the campus group the Disability Alliance and Caucus. Her writing on disabled positionality, tech, and access has been featured within the past 18 months in Nature, AAUP's Academé, and Inside Higher Ed. She is a proud signatory of the Accessible Campus Action Alliance's Statement on "Beyond High Risk," that advises universities in colleges to enact "a new, accessible normal" as pandemic planning continues.

Charlie Moores talks with  Dr Alex Lees, Senior Lecturer in Conservation Biology at Manchester Metropolitan University about perceived clashes or differences in opinion between conservationists and animal rights activists.  The conversation was triggered by a thoughtful and well-expressed Twitter thread in which Alex wrote that “there are several tropes of animal rights activism which clash with conservation goals", going on to list, for example, trophy hunting, invasive species, and zoos.  Charlie's response to that thread was that you could equally say that there were conservation tropes that clashed with animal rights goals...There is of course more overlap between conservationists and animal advocates than those sentences might suggest, and in the following conversation Charlie and Alex discuss issues that both divide and unite them - including a shared passion for wildlife and a desire for more nuanced conversations to take place in what has become a rather fraught area of discussion.Follow Dr Alex Lees on Twitter

“Civil disobedience all through history has had a big impact. If it's non-violent but determined, it has a big impact and it has changed things. People say, how can you be against the law? I say, if the law is not right, of course you have to denounce it. That was the case for slavery. It was the case when women didn't have the right to vote. It was the case in South Africa with apartheid.” It’s not every day you get to tune in to a conversation between a member of the Belgian royal family and a 22-year-old indigenous reindeer herder from Sweden! In this episode, Princess Esméralda of Belgium and Saami activist Martina Fjällberg discuss the human costs of climate change, from language and culture to mental health; indigenous rights in conservation; and Princess Esméralda’s eye-opening experience of being arrested for her environmental activism.

Alice J. Kang has written Bargaining for Women's Rights: Activism in an Aspiring Muslim Democracy (University of Minnesota Press, 2015). Kang is assistant professor of political science and ethnic studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Much attention is paid to Muslim-majority countries across the Middle East, especially the contentious role of women's rights in those countries. Less attention has been paid to Muslim democracies in Africa. Kang's book focuses on the politics of women's rights in one such country: Niger. Women's rights activists in Niger have fought to participate in democratic governance, but haven't won every recent battle. Kang highlights several successes as well as policy areas where women's organizations have failed to win policy victories. The book has much to say about social movements and also the evolving way Muslim majority democracies grapple with human rights. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
