Labor History Today: This week's edition of the show takes us to Australia, but the history of slavery and the ongoing failure to come to terms with the resulting racism and discrimination there echo uncomfortably loudly here in the United States as Donald Trump ramps up his campaign to stamp out any effort to acknowledge that such things exist, as though by simply abolishing the words diversity, equity and inclusion we can magically erase generations of oppression. It cannot do so, but we clearly have a long way to go here at home, and it's instructive – and a bit inspiring -- to hear how our brothers and sisters Down Under are struggling with the same issues. Today's show comes to us from the Melbourne-based radio show Stick Together; host James Brennan talks with author Santilla Chingaipe about her book “Black Convicts: How slavery shaped Australia.” Questions, comments, or suggestions are welcome, and to find out how you can be a part of Labor History Today, email us at LaborHistoryToday@gmail.com Labor History Today is produced by the Labor Heritage Foundation and the Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor. @stick__together #LaborRadioPod #History #WorkingClass #ClassStruggle @GeorgetownKILWP #LaborHistory @UMDMLA @ILLaborHistory @AFLCIO @StrikeHistory #LaborHistory @wrkclasshistory

One evening, two weeks ago, Natan Mwanza was stabbed and killed at a bus stop in Melbourne’s south-west. He was 24 years old. Natan’s family had migrated to Australia from the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2008, and his death sparked an outpouring of grief from African diasporic communities in Australia. Historian and filmmaker Santilla Chingaipe also felt the impact of Natan’s death and sought to understand what had happened. But it soon became a story about how we write and report on crime – and how Black lives are treated in the media. Today, Santilla Chingaipe on the life of Natan Mwanza and how Black grief is rendered invisible.

This week Em and Michael are sitting down with one of Em's besties, Zambian-born Australian journalist, historian, author and filmmaker Santilla Chingaipe, for an eye opening chat about her new book that is rewriting the history of this country. Recognised by the United Nations in 2019 as one of the most influential people of African descent in the world, Santilla has spent the last 7 years researching and writing her debut non fiction book ‘Black Convicts' which is in stores now. ‘Black Convicts' builds on the research Santilla did for her critically acclaimed and award-winning documentary ‘Our African Roots'which is still streaming on SBS On Demand. It is fascinating to hear how colonial record keepers white washed parts of our history, silencing the lives of people like David Stuurman, a revered South African chief transported for anti-colonial insurrection; John Caesar, who became Australia's first bushranger; Billy Blue, the stylishly dressed ferryman who gave his name to Sydney's Blues Point; and William Cuffay, a prominent London Chartist who led the development of Australia's labour movement. ‘Black Convicts' is bound to change the way we think about who we are, buy your copy here https://shorturl.at/Jjk2V. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em and her eldest Marchella review the new Netflix Christmas offering ‘Hot Frosty' and answer your AMA questions. Sign up to listen for $1.73 a week, or watch it for under $3 a week at emsolation.supercast.com and don't forget you can watch highlights from this episode in full maximalist colour on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@emsolationpodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

The most dangerous protests." - Fatima Bhutto.

Happy fiftieth episode to us! We're celebrating with the return of our very first guest, comedian and author Cal Wilson! Cal joins Liz and Ben in the kitchen to brave the recipes within the 1999 Discworld side project Nanny Ogg's Cookbook, co-authored with Stephen Briggs and Tina Hannan, with illustrations by Paul Kidby. After his latest books are forcibly withdrawn from sale, publisher J H C Goatberger reluctantly decides to publish another manuscript sent to him by Nanny Ogg. He hires a few editors to "put in the spelling, grammar and punctuation" and has his wife vet it for anything objectionable enough to get the book banned. The result is Nanny Ogg's Cookbook, a collection of Nanny's own recipes, others she's collected from around the Disc, and some of her wit, wisdom and advice - in particular when it comes to etiquette. Published alongside The Fifth Elephant (see #Pratchat40), Nanny Ogg's Cookbook is one of several "in-universe artefact" books. It collects around fifty or so recipes - minus a dozen or so joke ones - devised by Hannan. Pratchett and Briggs round out the book with Nanny's advice on matters of life, death, flowers and everything in between. Paul Kidby provides some great illustrations of various characters, dishes and other glimpses of Discworld life. What do you think of books like this, that bring a bit of a fictional world into the real one? Which of Nanny's recipes would you try? How do her observations match up with your own experiences of life, love and...um..toilet seats? Do you want a sausage-inna-Bunnings T-shirt? And are you ready to see pictures of our efforts? (Probably not...) Join the conversation using the hashtag #Pratchat50 on social media. Guest Cal Wilson - one of Australia and New Zealand's most beloved comedians - previously guested in #Pratchat1 and #Pratchat3, talking about Men at Arms and Sourcery, respectively. Since we saw her last she's published two children's books - George and the Great Bum Stampede and George and the Great Brain Swappery. Cal is no stranger to podcasts; she's guested on dozens! Her upcoming children's storytelling podcast is The Story Tailor (we'll link to it when it's out!), and she's previously co-hosted Money Power Freedom (it does what it says on the tin) with journalist Santilla Chingaipe for the Victorian Women's Trust. You can find Cal online as @calbo on Twitter, and as mentioned in our chat, on TikTok as @calbowilson. (Or just search for the hashtag #baristacats.) As usual, you can find notes and errata for this episode on our web site - including some photos of our culinary efforts! (Viewer discretion is advised.) December is a busy time for us! To further celebrate reaching fifty episodes, we've invited a bunch of great folks, including past guests, fellow Pratchett podcasters and more to cook a few more recipes for a special Hogswatch Feast episode! Watch out for it on Hogswatch day (i.e. December 25, Australian time). We're also recording our next episode very soon - December 17 in fact - and we'll be discussing the next adventure for Tiffany Aching, 2006's Wintersmith, with Australian fantasy author Garth Nix!

From left to right: Santilla Chingaipe, Jackie Huggins, Yin Paradies and Lee Carnie — Photo: Jon Tjhia While overt forms of racism in Australian workplaces are outlawed, many people from Indigenous and migrant backgrounds argue that racism is still pervasive – before and after joining a workplace. Last year, a major company's employment listing overtly preferenced ‘candidates who are Anglo Saxon'. Multiple studies have shown that anglicising names on job applications improves a jobseeker's prospects, prompting recent government trials of anonymous job applications. So, how does racism manifest itself in the workplace – overtly, and covertly – and what impact does this have on both employee and employer? What can employers and governments do to address racial and religious discrimination at work?

Tressie McMillan Cottom Not all of us can afford to lean in, because some of us aren't even in the room. We're rightly galvanised by the fact that there are more CEOs at ASX200 companies in Australia named Andrew than there are women – but when did feminism become about earning power? Doesn't it have to be anti-capitalist? Market ideas about success and failure seem like a shaky foundation for liberation for the 99% of women, so what does an uncommodified resistance look like?

Santilla Chingaipe, Roxanne Moore, Tamar Hopkins and Fiona McLeod at the Wheeler Centre In this edition of our Not Racist, But series, we discuss racial bias in the criminal justice system – from policing and legal aid to jury selection and sentencing. Indigenous Australians account for just 2% of our country's overall population and more than a quarter of our adult prison population. How, specifically, is this a function of explicit and structural racism across various facets of our enforcement and justice systems? And how are all non-white Australians – especially those from refugee backgrounds – disadvantaged when interacting with police and with the courts? In this discussion, host Santilla Chingaipe and the panel explore how racial discrimination and bias play out on a daily and inter-generational basis in Australia. They look at racial data collection, too, and how sensationalist media reporting can skew perception, politics and policy.

Who is encouraging the spread of hate, and what do they have to gain? In this conversation, we'll discuss the disturbing rise of nationalist populism in Australia today, expressed through such events as the United Patriots rally at St Kilda beach, the ‘African gang' scare campaigns and the white supremacist terrorist attack at Christchurch. Tim Soutphommasane is the former race discrimination commissioner at the Australian Human Rights Commission and he is the author of an essay published by Melbourne University Press, ‘On Hate', which examines the threat that racist extremism poses to Australian democracy.

One grew up in an urban environment surrounded by many cultures and the other in a small town in country Victoria.

Sri Lankan-born, Sydney-based artist Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran creates rough-edged, vibrant, new-age idols that are at once enticing and disquieting. His figurative sculptures experiment with form and scale and explore the politics of sex, the monument, gender and organised religion. While proceeding from a confident atheist perspective, Ramesh draws upon his Hindu and Christian heritage as reference points, also looking to popular culture including the internet, pornography, fashion and art history. For his latest solo exhibition at The University of Melbourne’s Ian Potter Museum of Art, self-portraits make frequent appearances and the dual presence of male and female organs suggesting gender fluid realms of new possibilities.
