This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha SharmaToday is the 17th of April and here are today's headlinesThe Supreme Court declined to stay changes to the Waqf law after the Centre assured no recruitment would occur in Waqf boards and councils, and that Waqf properties would not be denotified until the next hearing. A three-judge bench led by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna took note of the Centre's statement. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta assured that a short response would be filed within seven days, and after a brief hearing, the bench set the next date for further proceedings.The Supreme Court will examine if a Muslim individual can choose the Indian Succession Act, 1925, over Shariat law for inheritance matters. Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar tagged the petition by Naushad K K, a Kerala lawyer, with a case filed by ex-Muslim Safiya PM. Safiya seeks a declaration that Muslims who renounce their faith should be governed by the Indian Succession Act instead of Muslim personal law.In response to Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir's claim that Kashmir is Pakistan's "jugular vein," India stated the only link is Pakistan's illegal occupation of part of Kashmir, which must end. Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal rejected the remark, emphasizing that Kashmir is a union territory of India. Munir had reiterated Pakistan's stance on Kashmir and defended the two-nation theory, asserting Pakistan's ongoing claim over the region.Chinmay Deore, a 21-year-old computer science student at Wayne State University, faces deportation after US immigration authorities terminated his F-1 student visa. Deore and three other international students filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security, claiming their visa terminations were unlawful.

With US tariffs impacting both countries' economies, Cambodia, a major exporter to the US, faces high tariffs on its goods. Xi's comments, published in Cambodian media, stressed the importance of opposing “hegemonism” and “protectionism.” He had delivered similar messages earlier during his visits to Vietnam and Malaysia, emphasizing cooperation amidst global trade challenges.

Am 08. März wird jährlich der Internationale Frauentag gefeiert, dieser ist in Berlin und Mecklenburg-Vorpommern sogar als gesetzlicher Feiertag anerkannt ist. Zu diesem besonderen Anlass gab es eine Extra-Kurzausgabe der Schlagershow mit Simon Ladewig. In einer einstündigen Sendung war die Sängerin Safiya am Telefon zu Gast und hat  ein sehr persönliches Interview gegeben, in dem sie Einblicke in ihr Leben gewährt hat. Sie hat über schwere Zeiten gesprochen, die sie durchlebt hat, und darüber, wie sie es geschafft hat, diese Herausforderungen zu überwinden. Besonders bewegend ist Safiyas Entscheidung, dem Internationalen Frauentag eine eigene Hymne zu widmen. Ihr neuer Song "Bleib in Erinnerung" ist eine kraftvolle Botschaft an alle Frauen und war ebenfalls Thema des Gesprächs zwischen Safiya und Simon.

This week Lara and Michael sit down to talk about the disturbing case of Dr. Abu Safiya who stood steadfast and protected his patients at Kamal Adwan Hospital during the Israeli assault on the medical facility. He was injured with shrapnel in a previous assault, his son was martyred, and he broadcasted almost daily plea's to the international community before he was abducted by the Israeli occupation forces. He has since been tortured by the Israelis, and transferred to the concentration camp. We urge all medical professionals to speak out in defense of Dr. Abu Safiya and call for his immediate release.

She loves to be immersed in cultures outside of her own through travel and listening to stories. Safiya believes storytelling is the medicine we need. You can often find her listening to her favorite storytelling podcasts or snuggling her super cute daughter.

The author recounts a childhood spent observing tropical fauna and flora and reading poetry, far from tourist hotels and the bustling street life of the Jamaican capital. She joins us to discuss the double standard for Rastafari boys and girls, the symbolic meaning of cutting off her dreadlocks and the hidden literary talents of a mother who inspired her personal and professional journey.

Comedian Paul F. Tompkins chats about his improv comedy podcast The Neighborhood Listen, where he and fellow comedians re-enact posts from the app Nextdoor; poet Safiya Sinclair discusses her memoir How to Say Babylon, in which she recounts growing up Rastafarian in Jamaica under the strict patriarchy of her father; and singer-songwriter Isabeau Waia'u Walker performs her song "All My Friends Think I'm Okay." Plus, host Luke Burbank and announcer Elena Passarello share some unhinged behavior from the neighbors of our listeners.

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.It's the 29th of April and here are today's headlines.The Congress in Madhya Pradesh received a setback today with its Indore candidate, Akshay Kanti Bam, withdrawing his nomination. BJP spokesperson Pankaj Chaturvedi confirmed the development to The Indian Express and said, quote, “The Congress candidate has withdrawn his nomination. This is the failure of Congress leadership. It's a failure of their policies. Their vote bank politics, inheritance politics… has backfired. Congress karyakartas were already leaving, and now the leaders have joined.” Unquote. As the Karnataka Special Investigation Team launches a probe into allegations of sexual abuse by JD(S) MP and its Hassan candidate Prajwal Revanna, G Devaraje Gowda, a BJP leader told The Indian Express that he wrote an email and a letter to BJP state unit president BY Vijayendra as well as the central leadership on the allegations on 8th of December last year.Will an ex-Muslim continue to be governed by the Muslim personal law — the Shariat Act of 1937 — or by the secular laws of the country in matters of succession? The Supreme Court today agreed to consider the “important point” and issued notice on a writ petition filed by a woman from Kerala raising the question. The notice came from a bench on a petition filed by Safiya PM. In her plea, Safiya sought a “declaration that persons who do not want to be governed by the Muslim Personal Law must be allowed to be governed by the secular law of the country, viz, the Indian Succession Act, 1925 both in the case of intestate and testamentary succession”.In an interview to a leading national daily, Prime Minister Narendra Modi doubled down on his remarks against the Congress party over “appeasement” and “inheritance tax”. When asked about the Congress's “polarisation” charge against the BJP, PM Modi said, quote “It is not polarisation to show that Congress has violated the Constitution and enacted laws providing reservation on the basis of religion. Our Constitution clearly prohibits reservations based on religion but the Congress govt in Karnataka reversed the law passed by BJP to provide reservation to OBCs and gave it to Muslims, classifying all Muslims as OBC.” unquote.When asked about the disappointment that the manifestos of the Congress and other parties of the INDIA bloc are completely silent on Article 370, Omar Abdullah told the Indian Express, "We do have friends who have talked about it — TMC, DMK, the Left. They have stuck their necks out for J&K and are against everything that happened on August 5, 2019. While the Congress is unable to find common cause with us on this particular issue, it is disappointing but I do understand. I understand that they have to trade off their commitment to J&K with the wider electoral arithmetic that they need to factor in." Unquote.This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.

The work of human hands retains evidence of the humans who created the works. While this might seem obvious in the case of something like a painting, where the artist's touch is the featured aspect, it's much less obvious in things that aren't supposed to betray their humanity. Take the algorithms that power search engines, which are expected to produce unvarnished and unbiased results, but which nonetheless reveal the thinking and implicit biases of their programmers. While in an age where things like facial recognition or financial software algorithms are shown to uncannily reproduce the prejudices of their creators, this was much less obvious earlier in the century, when researchers like Safiya Umoja Noble were dissecting search engine results and revealing the sometimes appalling material they were highlighting. In this Social Science Bites podcast, Noble -- the David O. Sears Presidential Endowed Chair of Social Sciences and professor of gender studies, African American studies, and information studies at the University of California, Los Angeles -- explains her findings, insights and recommendations for improvement with host David Edmonds. And while we've presented this idea of residual digital bias as something somewhat intuitive, getting here was an uphill struggle, Noble reveals. “It was a bit like pushing a boulder up a mountain -- people really didn't believe that search engines could hold these kinds of really value-laden sensibilities that are programmed into the algorithm by the makers of these technologies. Even getting this idea that the search engine results hold values, and those values are biased or discriminatory or harmful, is probably the thrust of the contribution that I've made in a scholarly way.” But through her academic work, such as directing the Center on Race & Digital Justice and co-directing of the Minderoo Initiative on Tech & Power at the UCLA Center for Critical Internet Inquiry and books like the 2018 title Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism, the scale of the problem and the harm it leaves behind are becoming known. Noble's own contributions have been recognized, too, such as being named a MacArthur Foundation fellow in 2021 and the inaugural NAACP-Archewell Digital Civil Rights Award winner in 2022. 

Author/narrator Safiya Sinclair emphasizes the poetry of her words as she narrates her memoir. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Kendra Winchester discuss this powerful memoir. Sinclair begins by defining “Babylon,” the term that Rastafarians coined to refer to the corrupting influences of Western culture—white oppression, in particular. Her father, a musician, became a strict Rastafarian, and when Sinclair reaches puberty, her rageful father turns on her and rains down abuse. The memoir's throughlines are Sinclair's depictions of her mother's gentle love, her siblings' tenderness, her own determination, and the poetry that grew within her.

In Safiya Sinclair's new memoir, “How to Say Babylon: A Memoir,” the award-winning poet and essayist is revisiting her youth as a Rastafari girl.  Being Rasta is about so much more than what shows up in American pop culture — it's an anti-colonial, pro-Black way of life that was deeply important to Safiya's father. But for her, it was a set of rules and dictates that tried to shrink the world for her and her sisters. In this conversation from October 2023, she tells Kai the story of her childhood, the history of the often persecuted Rastafari movement in Jamaica, and her own journey to finding herself by leaving behind her beloved home.

To the strict Rastafari father of Jamaican poet Safiya Sinclair, Babylon was not just an ancient city. It was a symbol for corruption, for wickedness, for decadence and depravity. And it was everywhere. So he kept his family tightly controlled, separate from outside influences that could contaminate. It was in that environment that Sinclair first grew and then stifled. Her father's Rastafari faith was all-encompassing. While her mother taught her the music of nature and encouraged her to read, her father became obsessed with keeping his daughters pure. So they had few friends or hobbies, outside of schoolwork. Sinclair dreaded adolescence, when she knew menstruation would make her unclean. She grudgingly kept her dreadlocks — a symbol of Rastafari piety — and chafed under her father's gospel that good Rasta women are submissive and quiet. But Sinclair found her voice in poetry. In her new memoir, “How to Say Babylon,” Sinclair recounts her journey from a subdued and sheltered daughter into a strong and self-assertive woman. This week on Big Book and Bold Ideas, Sinclair joined host Kerri Miller to talk about the perils of fundamentalism and patriarchy, in all its forms, and how she wrote a memoir about her childhood that both honors her family and her own truth. Guest:Safiya Sinclair is a Jamaican poet and memoirist. Her debut poetry collection, “Cannibal,” won several awards.

Born in Jamaica to a father who belonged to the 'strictest and most radical sect of Rastafari', Safiya Sinclair was made to wear dreadlocks and subjugated from a young age. She was forbidden from climbing trees, riding a bike, wearing trousers, and told her virtue was in her silence and submission. Rastas were ostracised in Jamaica and Safiya's dreadlocks came to define her. In her isolation, Safiya's only refuge was when her mum introduced her to literature and poetry, which changed the trajectory of her life. Now a writer and Associate Professor of creative writing at Arizona University, Safiya has written an astonishing memoir ‘How To Say Babylon'. Already tipped to be one of the books of the year, Safiya shines a light on the female experience of this particular sect of Rastafarianism, juxtaposing her harrowing experiences with the use of luscious and beautiful prose. The writer Marlon James said of How To Say Babylon; “ To read it is to believe that words can save.”Here, in a truly captivating conversation, Safiya talks Annie through her changes.You can find out more about Safiya and the 'How To Say Babylon' and buy a copy here: https://safiyasinclair.com/home-how-to-say-babylonChanges is a deaf friendly podcast, transcripts can be accessed here: https://www.anniemacmanus.com/changes Hosted on Acast.

A new report out today from the CQC - the Care Quality Commission - says that almost two thirds of maternity units provide dangerously substandard care that puts women and babies at risk. It has rated 65% of maternity services in England as either "inadequate" or "requires improvement", an increase from 54% last year. And yesterday saw the first debate in Parliament about birth trauma and the injuries suffered by some women in labour. The Conservative MP Theo Clarke has campaigned for better support for mothers following her own traumatic experience after giving birth to her daughter in August 2022. She gave her powerful testimony to Parliament in an effort to get birth trauma added to the women's health strategy and improve perinatal care for women. First we hear from Chief Executive of the CQC, Ian Trenholm, and then consultant obstetrician Dr Daghni Rajasingham. After Ruhama Wolle took on the bridesmaid mantle three times in the space of 18 months, she decided to never say yes to the role, ever again. She penned an open letter resigning from all future bridesmaid requests, addressed to all her family and friends in Glamour Magazine US, where she works as Special Projects Editor. She joins Anita Rani to talk about why she's opted out of the type of friendship being a bridesmaid requires. A prize-winning poet and currently Associate Professor of Creative Writing at Arizona State University, Safiya Sinclair, has now written a stunning memoir, How to Say Babylon. It looks at her childhood and teenage years growing up in an ultra-strict Rastifari family in Jamaica, and how literature and poetry changed the trajectory of her life.
