In today's episode, we're joined by Katy Faust, author and founder of the children's rights organization Them Before Us, for a compelling conversation about the world of IVF. We discuss Trump's recent executive order Expanding Access to In Vitro Fertilization, unpacking why it raises serious concerns for the well-being of children born through this technology. We talk about the evils of commercial surrogacy, and Katy sheds light on the deep, primal wound inflicted on infants when separated from the only mother they've ever known and placed in the arms of a stranger. We also explore a shocking case in Georgia, where a woman is suing an IVF clinic after giving birth to someone else's child after the clinic implanted the wrong embryo. From overseas human egg farms to Elon Musk's many children, we examine the harms of the booming commercial fertility industry and its impact on families and children alike.

More than a century of civil rights activism reached a mountaintop with the arrival of a Black man in the Oval Office. But hopes for a unified, post-racial America were deflated when Barack Obama's presidency met with furious opposition. A white, right-wing backlash was brewing, and a volcanic new movement—a second civil rights movement—began to erupt.  In the highly anticipated follow-up to his Eyes on the Prize, bestselling author Juan Williams turns his attention to the rise of a new 21st-century civil rights movement. In New Prize for These Eyes, Williams shines a light on this historic, new movement. Who are its heroes? Where is it headed? What fires, furies, and frustrations distinguish it from its predecessor?  In the 20th century, Black activists and their white allies called for equal rights and an end to segregation. They appealed to the Declaration of Independence's defiant assertion that “all men are created equal.” They prioritized legal battles in the courtroom and legislative victories in Congress. Today's movement is dealing with new realities. Demographic changes have placed progressive whites in a new role among the largest, youngest population of Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians in the nation's history. Williams says the new generation is social media savvy, and they have an agenda fueled by discontent with systemic racism and the persistent scourge of police brutality. Today's activists are making history in a new economic and cultural landscape, and they are using a new set of tools and strategies to do so.  Join us as Williams traces the arc of this new civil rights era, from Obama to Charlottesville to January 6th and a Confederate flag in the Capitol. It's more than a recounting of history. Williams offers a forward-looking call to action, urging Americans to get in touch with the progress made and hurdles yet to be overcome.

For someone who is “more than an athlete," LeBron James has remained very quiet when it comes to Kamala Harris' presidential run. James has actually been more outspoken on the state of NBA travel than politics in 2024. What is driving James and other top celebrities' silence this election season? Steve Kim and Butter join “Fearless” to discuss LBJ's sudden apathy toward politics. Is he too busy preparing for the NBA's opening when it's reported that the Lakers will insert Bronny and James into the starting lineup to take a bow? The NFL has settled the racial discrimination lawsuit filed by Jim Trotter. What does this move say about the state of black journalism? It looks like Deshaun Watson wants out of Cleveland, but is there any scenario that exists for the Browns to trade the embattled QB? Plus, one company has taken a stand for women's sports and is now challenging Nike to do the same. We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

In 1978, a California ballot measure known as the Briggs Initiative sought to ban openly gay teachers from the classroom. It seemed headed for an easy victory based on polls released months before the election, but a coalition of odd bedfellows — including gay Supervisor Harvey Milk in San Francisco, organized labor, Ronald Reagan and President Jimmy Carter — came together to crush the initiative. The rise and fall of the Briggs Initiative and the huge stakes the measure posed for a very young and fragile gay rights movement are documented in this season of Slate's podcast "Slow Burn: Gays Against Briggs."

This week, we're doing a guest swap. I was on The Dispatch Live with Kevin Williamson a few days ago. So, he graciously agreed to join me on The Weekly Reload Podcast. We covered some ground on where the gun-rights movement stands today on his show, but there was a lot left to get at. Will Trump turn away from gun-rights activists like he did with pro-lifers? What does it say about that movement that it's so reliant on Trump and the Republican party writ large? Why aren't we seeing more of a political effect from all those new pandemic-era gun owners? Will we ever? Similarly, we picked up where we left off on the Washington Post's Pulitzer prize for its AR-15 expose publishing graphic images of mass shooting crime scenes. Williamson argued the piece was litered with factual errors and, worse, it was intentionally misleading in what images it didn't publish. Special Guest: Kevin Williamson.

Most people support responsible environmental policies but may be unaware of how radical the leading edge of the movement has become as an increasing number of activists support granting personhood rights to nature. Is nature rights a subversive threat to human exceptionalism and our thriving or is it the next necessary step in society's moral growth and key to preventing a catastrophic environmental collapse as its adherents claim? Let's find out. Wesley's guest is one of the primary founders of the nature rights approach. Thomas Alan Linzey, serves as Senior Legal Counsel for the Center for Democratic and Environmental Rights, an organization committed to globally advancing the legal rights of nature and environmental rights. He is the co-founder of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF) and is widely recognized as the founder of the contemporary “community rights” and “rights of nature” movements. Linzey is a cum laude graduate of Widener Law School and a three-time recipient of the law school's public interest law award. He is a co-founder of the Daniel Pennock Democracy School – now taught in twenty-four states across the country which has graduated over 5,000 lawyers, activists, and municipal officials – which assists groups to create new community campaigns which elevate the rights of those communities over rights claimed by corporations. Linzey is the author or co-author of several books on community activism and civil disobedience. He assisted the Ecuadorian constitutional assembly in 2008 to adopt the world's first constitution recognizing the independently enforceable rights of ecosystems, and is a frequent lecturer at conferences across the country. The Center on Human Exceptionalism is most pleased Linzey agreed to join the podcast, during which he and Wesley have a discussion not an argument.

 A new statewide organization bills itself as a resource for all school board members -- regardless of political ideology - despite Pennsylvania already having a longstanding professional organization serving that purpose. What the Pennsylvania School Directors Coalition's website doesn't detail is its leaders' history with the state's conservative education movements. An estimated one million Pennsylvanians are dealing with medical debt. Under Governor Josh Shapiro's budget plan, about $400 million in debt would be erased for low-income Pennsylvanians.  Pennsylvania is handing out $3.3 million to fund pre-apprenticeship programs in agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing, and gaming.

Katy Faust, author of Them Before Us - Why We Need a Global Children's Rights Movement, joins Chloe and Mattingly to discuss the importance of a cohesive family unit.

Today I am sharing what is easily my favorite conversation, with the incredible activist, actress, and singer, Yasmine Aker. I have been following the uprising and protests in Iran since the murder of Mahasa Amini a little over a month prior to the airing of this episode. The Iranian women, youth, and LGBTQ+ community are risking their lives for a chance at the liberties and freedoms that we have today. The freedoms these courageous people are fighting for are similar in many ways to the freedoms currently attempting to be stripped from Americans.  To help amplify the voices of these incredibly brave women and because this is not either of our cultures, we are here to support Yasmine's voice and the story of the Iranian Women's Rights Movement that is happening right now.  To learn more about Yasmine, please visit her Instagram page @iamyasmi Here are some accounts on Instagram, people can follow and amplify: @middleEastmatters    @sarahrmni   @golFarahani   @ranarahimpour_bbc   @collectiveforblackiranians @from___iran   @1500tasvir    Due to Sanctions its not possible to send any funds to Iran, but here are some fundraisers working for progress in Iran:  This is the GoFundMe fundraiser seeking to accelerate and prolong global visibility and coverage through billboards/mainstream media outlets: www.gofundme.com/f/FreeIranCallForMedia  People can also donate to the Tor Project to help restore the internet in Iran: www.torproject.org  People can share their VPN with Snowflake -- https://snowflake.torproject.org/ or Tooseh app www.tooseh.org  List of resources and petitions:   https://freeirancalltoaction.com/  www.iranhumanrights.org Demand that the United Nations urgently create an international mechanism to hold the Iranian Authorities accountable 1-212-963-7160 Call the United Nations Women's Department 1-646-781-4400  Thanks to today's sponsors, OneSkin and Ritual!   OneSkin is the world's first skin longevity company.

Are we surprised that we're seeing yet another hit piece shaming human rights activists who focus on disadvantages and discrimination faced by men? No. But we're gonna read it anyway, degenerates that we are, because it's vital that anyone advocating for social and legal change understand their opposition.

On this edition of Parallax Views, last month I spoke to journalist Jeffrey Sharlet, known for his books on the Christian Nationalist movement (The Family and C Street; the former has been made into hit Netflix documentary miniseries), to discuss his latest work The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War. The book is a series of essays exploring the chaotic moment that Sharlet calls the "Trumpocene" and delves into everything from the January 6th insurrection and death of Ashli Babbitt to the Men's Rights Movement. Given he New Hampshire primary on January 23rd, I felt that now was the perfect time to release this prescient conversation. In this conversation we cover a number of topics including: - The "F Word"; or fascism - The rise of the far-right in the U.S. and its global ascendancy - Trump and Gnosticism; Jeff's citing of the Gnostic poem "Thunder Perfect Mind" in relation to the Trump/MAGA movement phenomena - Jan 6th and the death of Ashli Babbit; what drove Ashli Babbit into Trumpism and the MAGA movement? - QAnon and the power of narratives in mobilizing the American right-wing - Revisiting Jeff's groundbreaking journalism on The Family, C Street, the Council for National Policy (CNP), and Christian Nationalism - Christian Nationalism and Trumpism as radical reinterpretations of Christianity; the Church itself as not being the be-all-end-all of Christian Nationalism (it's much bigger than that) - Jeff's experiences reporting on the MRA movement and the ways in which they start with some true observations (men have high suicide rates, custody issues, etc.) that are chucked away in favor of misogny and all-out attacks on feminism (even though some of their initial observations can also be found amongst feminist works such as Susan Faludi's Stiffed: The Betrayal of the American Man) - And more!

Katherine M. Marino is an assistant professor of history at the University of California, Los Angeles. Feminism for the Americas: The Making of an International Human Rights Movement (University of North Carolina Press, 2019) follows the many Latin American and Caribbean women in the first half of the century who not only championed feminism for the continent but also contributed to defining the meaning of international human rights. They drove a transnational movement for women's suffrage that included equal work and maternity rights and the self-determination of their nations rejecting U.S. imperialism. Marino draws attention to the enduring contributions of women such as the Brazilian Bertha Lutz, Cuban Clara Gonzales and Chilean Marta Vergara who have yet to receive a significant place in human rights history. The work of Latin American and Caribbean feminist was impeded by internal race and class conflict, insufficient funding, lack of government support and by imperial assumptions of U.S. feminists. Their tenacious efforts through multiple organizations, gatherings, and personal networks led to the inclusion of women's rights in the global human rights framework and assured that economic and social rights would not be sidelined. The book also illuminates the ideological differences that have plagued the global feminist movement and adds a significant piece to the history of human rights. Lilian Calles Barger, www.lilianbarger.com, is a cultural, intellectual and gender historian.
