They discuss the dissonance and relationship between all the good that is happening within sports and the brutal societal attack on trans people's civil rights, especially on trans girls and women in sports, the rollback of diversity/equity/inclusion on college campuses as athletes begin to secure more labor rights, and the United States' horrific isolationist and nationalist movements as the US, Mexico, and Canada get ready to host some of the world's biggest international sporting events.And, as always, you'll hear the Burn Pile and Torchbearers, starring, well, us.EPISODE NOTES: We want to thank Dr. Vikki Krane, the Social Justice through Sport and Exercise Psychology Symposium, Amy J.

"Hoe begeleid je jongeren met suïcidale gedachten?" Vandaag een mooi, lang gesprek over een intens en kwetsbaar onderwerp. Shireen Kaijadoe heeft promotieonderzoek gedaan naar suïcidale gedachten bij jongeren in de gesloten jeugdzorg. Specifieker: naar hoe erop werd gereageerd, hoe dat voor de jongeren was én wat het voor de professionals betekent.   Bijzonder is dat Shireen haar onderzoek volledig samen met ervaringsprofessionals heeft uitgevoerd. We praten over de ervaring van jongeren, over eenzaamheid, gevoel tot last te zijn en veelvuldige overplaatsingen. Over het belang van verbinding, contact en liefdevolle aandacht als essentie van de begeleiding. Het combineren van professionele kennis met persoonlijke betrokkenheid maakt het verschil. Shireen vertelt over de grote meerwaarde van het samenwerken met ervaringsprofessionals en over de noodzaak van voldoende steun voor het team dat met deze jongeren werkt. Omdat het moeilijk is om te verdragen als jonge mensen hun suicidale gedachten uitspreken en zichzelf pijn doen. Steun aan het team, de ouders en andere naasten om uit te blijven reiken en liefdevol te kunnen blijven reageren. Want het allerbelangrijkste is dat we deze jongeren laten voelen dat ze niet alleen zijn.   Het proefschrift, een kalender met uitspraken over suïcidale gedachten en een informatieve video op www.stilgevecht.nl Luister de podcast via je favoriete app, Spotify, YouTube of de website.

Welcome to the Fall Funder Series, where Sherry Quam Taylor demystifies common misconceptions about how organizations can secure general operating revenue. First up is Shireen Zaman of the BUILD program at the Ford Foundation. As the Program Director, Shireen works directly with organizations in identifying their greatest fundraising needs and preparing a funding strategy that best supports those efforts.  Shireen gets real about what she looks for when choosing organizations to support. It's important to remember that there are real people behind these funding efforts who are eager to connect with motivated, resilient organizations. Sometimes, all it takes is a quick introductory email or message to access a grove of new funding opportunities.   What You Will Discover:  ✔️ Funders are human. Take the time to organically build a relationship with a funder by utilizing all of their available resources, attending webinars, or simply having a conversation. ✔️ Think about ALL of your overhead. Organizations may include the funding they need in the present, but will that be enough to sustain your mission in a way that attracts larger funders? ✔️ The most impactful relationships take time and consistency to build. Don't be discouraged if your efforts don't immediately produce results. —————————————— Shireen Zaman is a program officer on the BUILD team, working to advance the foundation's efforts to support and develop stronger, sustainable, and more effective social justice organizations and networks across the globe. Shireen has more than two decades of experience in the philanthropic and nonprofit sector, spearheading organizational transformation, resource development, and program management at a variety of organizations. Prior to joining the Ford Foundation, she was the director of the RISE Together Fund, a donor collaborative at the Proteus Fund. At RTF, she worked to identify, invest in and build the capacity of grassroots organizations from Black/African, Arab, Middle Eastern, Muslim and South Asian communities in the US. She was a founding member and served on the advisory council of the Emergent Fund, a pooled fund dedicated to supporting US grassroots organizing and power building in communities of color, including Black, Indigenous communities. Prior to her work in philanthropy, Shireen was the executive director of the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding, where she led the strategic expansion of a Michigan-founded think tank into the Washington, DC policy space. She was also the director of the Middle East and North Africa program at Vital Voices Global Partnership where she partnered with women leaders across the region to support their work in the areas of human rights, health and political leadership. Shireen was recognized as a White House Champion of Change for her work as an Asian-American woman leader. She holds a BA in human development from Boston College and an MA from the School of International Service at American University. She studied Arabic at the American University in Cairo and is currently completing a coaching certification program through Coaching for Healing, Justice and Liberation.

Is your plate making you and the planet sick? Dr. Shireen Kassam shares that a plant-based diet is the optimal way to improve your and the planetary health. She shares evidence that eating plant-based nutrition and avoiding animal products can significantly reduce the risk of chronic diseases. She also discusses how shifting to a more plant-heavy food system would help reduce the environmental harm caused by industrial animal agriculture. Tune in to learn the science behind plant-based nutrition and get tips for transitioning to a healthier and more sustainable way of eating!   In this episode, we talk about: How Dr. Shireen became interested in plant-based nutrition The health benefits of plant-based diets in preventing chronic diseases Evidence that plant-based diets are better for the environment  The NHS in the UK should provide more plant-based meals in hospitals to improve health Common myths around plant-based diets Is plant-based diets suitable for people of all ages Best ways to make the transition from a standard diet to a plant-based diet How can healthcare practitioners help provide information and support to clients interested in plant-based nutrition   Memorable Quotes “A diet centered around fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, nuts, and seeds, lots of herbs and spices for flavor, and mainly water for thirst is one that has been known for decades now to be associated with lower rates of all of our common chronic conditions.”   “Without a healthy planet, we have no healthy people. And it's absolutely clear that our food system is one of the key drivers of both the climate crisis and the ecological crisis.”   BIO:  Dr Shireen Kassam is a Consultant Haematologist and Honorary Senior Lecturer at King's College Hospital, London with a specialist interest in the treatment of lymphoma. She is also a Visiting-Professor at University of Winchester, Hampshire, where she has developed and facilitates the UK's first University-based course on plant-based nutrition. In 2023 she launched a course on lifestyle medicine for cancer. Shireen is passionate about promoting plant-based nutrition for the prevention and reversal of chronic disease and for maintaining optimal health after treatment for cancer. In 2019 she became certified as a Lifestyle Medicine Physician and is also a CHIP facilitator. Shireen founded Plant-Based Health Professionals UK in 2018, a non-profit, membership organisation whose mission is to provide evidence-based education on whole food plant-based nutrition. Shireen qualified as a doctor in 2000. During her training, she completed a PhD, which investigated the role of selenium in sensitising cancer cells to chemotherapy. Shireen has published a number of peer-reviewed papers in the field of lymphoma. Her first book, Eating Plant-Based, Scientific Answers to Your Nutrition Questions, co-authored with her sister Zahra, was published in January 2022.

She emphasized that delays in receiving necessary information can hinder productivity and lead to mistakes.

Summary of Recent ICJ Rulings Against Israel | News

Seeking Refuge

Today, Shireen shares with us the recent court ruling from the case brought to the International Court of Justice by South Africa against Israel. Script: Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Seeking Refuge News. I'm Shireen Kaur, and today we will be discussing the recent court ruling from the International Court of Justice, or the ICJ, regarding the genocidal actions committed by Israel in Palestine. For context, South Africa brought Israel to the ICJ on December 29th, 2023, accusing Israel of intending to commit a genocide against the people of Palestine. In this 84 page document, it was argued that Israel's action in Gaza intended to destroy “a substantial part of the Palestinian national, racial, and ethnic group.” This is a direct violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention, says foreignpolicy.com. One of South Africa's lawyers, Tembeka Ngcukaitobi, stated, “The intent to destroy Gaza has been nurtured at the highest level of state.” Within this filing, South Africa lists eight actions against Palestinians in Gaza that are genocidal in nature. (Foreignpolicy.com) (1) Killing Palestinians, including children, in large numbers, (2) Causing serious bodily and mental harm to Palestinians, including children, and inflicting on them conditions of life intended to bring about their destruction as a group, (3) Causing mass displacement and expulsion of Palestinians from their homes, alongside the large-scale destruction of homes and residential areas, (4) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate food and water, (5) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate medical care, (6) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate shelter, clothes, hygiene, and sanitation, (7) Causing destruction of life for the Palestinian people, (8) Imposing measures intended to prevent Palestinian births.    Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned South Africa's allegations on Tuesday, calling them “atrocious and preposterous. Israel is expected to argue this on Friday. The Israeli Foreign Ministry has already written, “Israel is at war with Hamas, not with the people of Gaza…it is committed to conducting its operations in accordance with international law … and wishes no harm to Palestinian civilians anywhere.”  On January 26th, however, the ICJ has found it is "plausible" that Israel has committed acts that violate the Genocide Convention and that they must ensure “with immediate effect” that Israeli forces do not commit any of these acts, according to NPR. Additionally, the court voted 15-2 that Israel must take all measures to stop anything in relation to genocide in Gaza, and voted 16-1 that Israel must prevent and punish those involved with inciting genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza strip. (NPR) Another 16-1 vote ensured the provision of “urgently needed humanitarian aid and basic services.” Israel has now received 30 days to report back on the measures that they have been told to move forward taking. Benjamin Netanyahu does not find this ruling appealing, saying, “LIke every country, Israel has an inherent right to defend itself.” He goes on to reject the ruling, “The vile attempt to deny Israel this fundamental right is blatant discrimination against the Jewish state, and it was justly rejected... We will continue to do what is necessary to defend our country and defend our people." Considering this is the second time a state has ever tried to litigate the charge of genocide to another state (the first time against, Myanmar, who promptly ignored the ruling), there are many uncertainties to how this ruling will be enforced, or if it will be at all.  Considering that the United States is Israel's closest ally, they would likely veto any attempt to impose sanctions at the U.N. Security Council. This, however, could come at the cost of international goodwill and possibly economic sanctions from individual states, according to NBC news. The United States has repeatedly reiterated its stance that the accusations against Israel are unfounded. Washington's own calls for the minimization of civilian harm and increasing humanitarian assistance are consistent with Friday's ruling. NBC further states, “The U.S. recognizes that the court plays a vital role in the peaceful settlement of disputes,” and a State Department spokesperson said, “we will continue to monitor this proceeding as it moves forward.” Of course, the U.S. government's history of support for Israel makes any intervention or “peaceful settlements” unlikely.  Here in the U.S., there are groups combating the governments role in Israel genocide. TIME stated on January 25th that a federal court case has been filed against President Biden and two U.S. cabinet officials for “allegedly being complicit in Israel's genocide against Gazans.” This was filed by Palestinian human rights groups and the nonprofit Center for Constitutional Rights. TIME said, “Defense for Children International-Palestine v. Biden seeks to stop the U.S. from supporting Israel, which plaintiffs say has cost them the lives of family members, and will be heard in Oakland California.

At StartUp Health we're all about what's new and what's next in health, and that often means talking about cutting-edge technology. But sometimes the most radical way to improve is also the simplest. One example? Our food. This week, as we head into Thanksgiving in the United States, we're talking about the role food plays in managing not just our weight and fitness, but actual chronic diseases. Some people use the term 'Food as Medicine,' and the more research we do, the more ways we find that tuning our nutrition can sometimes be superior to taking more pharmaceuticals. While the idea of seeing food as a legitimate healthcare tool isn't new, per se, there are some exciting new tools and platforms that leverage nutritional information and make it more accessible to the world. And that's what we're going to talk about on this episode. Our first guest is Shireen Abdullah, CEO & Founder at Yumlish, who joined the StartUp Health community in 2019. Shireen's platform puts a virtual nutritionist in your pocket, with a strong emphasis on boosting health literacy. She's also worked very closely with the Air Force on workforce readiness. Turns out there are so many young people who are overweight and inactive that it's hindering military recruitment and becoming a national security threat. After Shireen we'll hear from Victor Penev, CEO & Founder of Edamam, a Health Transformer since all the way back in 2013. Victor has made the world's food knowledge more searchable through Edamam's API so that users of platforms like NOOM and Virta Health can get personalized meal recommendations.

On this edition of Parallax Views, the coverage of the Gaza War and Israel/Palestine continues in this double feature. First up, Prof. Juan Cole, well-known commentator on the Middle East and South Asia from the Informed Comment blog, gives his commentary on conditions in Gaza, anti-Palestinian racism in America, the Palestinian identity, double standards, whether it is actually possible to eradicate Hamas, Netanyahu's "Annihilate Amalek" rhetoric, and why the cycle of violence will continue short of a Palestinian state being recognized. In the second segment Shireen Hunter, affiliate fellow at the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service, joins us to discuss some of the points made in her insightful (some would say prophetic) May 2022 Responsible Statecraft piece "Unresolved Palestinian issue remains a major source of Mideast tension". We will also discuss the need for a peace to be brought about PRIMARILY by a dialogue between Palestinians and Israelis as opposed to Israelis and other Arab States, Iran, Hezbollah, Syria, the "Axis of Resistance", the cost of occupation, the Al-Aqsa mosque and the role of religion in the current iteration of the Israel/Palestine issue, the need to look at the Israel/Palestine issue as one about land/territory rather than metaphysics, the Palestinian identity, and much, much more.

Ralph welcomes Craig Mokhiber, who just resigned his post as the director in the New York Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights for the United Nations over the UN response to the bombing of Gaza. Then, we are joined by CODEPINK peace activist, Medea Benjamin, who was recently arrested at a hearing on Capitol Hill, featuring Secretary of State Antony Blinken, for protesting the weapons bill for Israel moving through Congress.Craig Mokhiber is lawyer and specialist in international human rights law, policy and methodology, and he has served the UN since 1992. Until his recent retirement, Mr. Mokhiber served as Director in the New York Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR). He has also served as the UN's Senior Human Rights Advisor in both Palestine and in Afghanistan, led the team of human rights specialists attached to the High Level Mission on Darfur, headed the Rule of Law and Democracy Unit, and served as Chief of the Economic and Social Issues Section, and Chief of the Development and Economic and Social Issues Branch at OHCHR Headquarters.What was really at the center of my letter was a sense that in the United Nations, international law had been subverted or pushed aside in favor of an approach to political expediency. That, first of all, ignored the norms and standards of human rights and humanitarian law. And secondly, it's failed miserably to improve the situation in Palestine and Israel.Craig MokhiberHamas is not just Hamas's armed wing. Hamas is also effectively a local government that provides services. Hamas is not supported by everyone in Gaza by any means. Palestinians who belong to many different parties have many different perspectives from liberal to conservative. And so, I think this continuous focus on Hamas and an effort to depict Hamas as ISIS, with all sorts of fantastical stories, is an intentional distraction away from the reality—which is the 2.3 million interned civilians in Gaza who have no say over what happens in their lives and who are on the receiving end of the Israeli bombs.Craig Mokhiber[This $14.5 billion in military aid to Israel] is being called the genocide tax on the American people— who I think if they were polled would say, “Let Israel pay for its own blunders on October 7th.”Ralph NaderMedea Benjamin is the co-founder of the women-led peace group CODEPINK and the co-founder of the human rights group Global Exchange. Her most recent book, coauthored with Nicolas J.S. Davies, is War in Ukraine: Making Sense of a Senseless Conflict.Many of us, for weeks, have been going into their offices, doing sit-ins in their offices, joining in with the constituents in their districts, and trying to get them to come out for a ceasefire— to no avail.Medea BenjaminIt's incredible the level of insanity of giving more money to Israel that could create a regional war there, continuing to fund (to the tune of $61 billion) the war in Ukraine that could lead to a regional war there, and then tacking on some more money to provoke China.Medea BenjaminCongress is behaving like an autocracy. It is blockading itself from the American people. It is putting its own power up for sale. It is ignoring the facts abroad. It's alienating huge portions of the world, and they don't care.Ralph NaderIn Case You Haven't Heard with Francesco DeSantis1. President Biden is facing a collapse in his 2024 polling related to his blind support for the Israeli military. A Gallup poll shows Biden's disapproval rating among young people has hit nearly 60%, rivaling the collapse in support for LBJ as the Vietnam war dragged on. According to the same poll, Biden has dropped 11 points with Democrats overall since September. Among Muslim Americans, Time reports only 17% say they now plan to vote for Biden in 2024 – a steep decline from the 59% who voted for him in 2020.2. Many Democrats are sticking with Biden despite his deeply unpopular position on Gaza, but not Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who is Palestinian and represents a significant Muslim American population in her Michigan district. In a recent video made with Means TV, Tlaib signals “There is no excuse for Joe Biden's support of Israel's genocidal campaign in Palestine. Don't count on our vote in 2024.”3. On Monday, October 23rd, the AFL-CIO held a tense meeting of its executive council regarding Gaza. The New York Times reports “Mark Dimondstein, the president of the postal union, argued that Israel and…Palestin[e]…should be combined into a single state [and] called for the A.F.L.-C.I.O. to demand a cease-fire, according to four people familiar with the contents of the meeting.” He also described himself as “[an] anti-Zionist Jew.” Randi Weingarten,  president of the American Federation of Teachers, asserted “Israel's right to defend itself, [and] said she backed establishing an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel,” Noting “That has been part of the Democratic platform for as long as I can remember.” Mr. Dimondstein, responded that he is “not part of the Democratic Party.”4. The International Federation of Journalists reports that the West Bank shrine venerating Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh – murdered by an Israeli sniper who was never brought to justice in May 2022 – has been desecrated. IFJ General Secretary Anthony Bellanger said “I have visited this site myself and know firsthand how important it had become to those who mourn Shireen's loss. It is hard to see this destruction as anything other than a cruel act of vengeance, of a kind that can only exacerbate tensions in Palestine. The sooner the ICC gives this case the attention it deserves, the better.”5. Anti-war sentiment is even taking hold in Israel itself. Israeli journalist Oren Ziv reported on an Israeli anti-war protest on October 28th, highlighting that this was the first such demonstration and that the protesters blocked roads near the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv. This comes as the situation within Israel grows increasingly tense, with reports of Palestinian students being trapped in a dorm at Netanya Academic College as an Israeli mob outside changed “death to Arabs,” per the Middle East Eye. 6. Even the Pope has weighed in on the growing violence, joining calls for a ceasefire. The pontiff issued a statement reading “Let the arms cease. Stop, brothers and sisters: war is always a defeat — always, always!”7.  In major domestic news, the United Auto Workers union has triumphed in their strike against the Big Three automakers. On October 30th, UAW and General Motors reached a deal, following similar agreements being reached with Stellantis and Ford. Axios reports that details of these deals include “25% wage hikes over four and a half years…cost-of-living adjustments…[bringing top wages] over $42 an hour by 2028…[and eliminating the] despised two-tiered wage scale for newer hires,” all key demands of the striking workers. These deals also provide “permanent jobs for temp workers and boosts retirement income, including 401(k) contributions,” and protections for EV workers. Reuters quotes UAW President Shawn Fain saying “We wholeheartedly believe our strike squeezed every last dime out of General Motors…They underestimated us. They underestimated you."8. The Washington Post is out with a blockbuster new report on how payday loan firms have gone to war with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. According to the report, “Powerful financial firms that offer high-cost, short-term loans to poor Americans have blocked at least five federal investigations into their business practices since the start of last year, part of a broad and aggressive campaign by payday lenders to neuter or eliminate their chief watchdog agency in Washington.” These firms have fought the CFPB tooth and nail in the courts, successfully bringing a case to challenge the existence of the Bureau itself to the Supreme Court. As that case winds its way through the legal system, these firms have “cited the pending Supreme Court decision to slow ongoing CFPB investigations or fight off the agency's recent punishments.”  Lisa Gilbert, the executive vice president of Public Citizen, which filed a briefing with the Supreme Court in defense of the CFPB, noted that “The really big-picture implication is all of the rules of the last 12 years could be called into question.”9. Finally, the Intercept reports progressive House Democrat Jim McGovern and conservative House Republican Thomas Massie are circulating a letter calling on President Biden to end the judicial persecution of WikiLeaks' Julian Assange. This letter emphasizes that “Deep concerns about this case have been repeatedly expressed by international media outlets, human rights and press freedom advocates,” and noted a previous letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland which stressed that “[e]very day that the prosecution of Julian Assange continues is another day that our own government needlessly undermines our own moral authority abroad and rolls back the freedom of the press under the First Amendment at home.” Hopefully this left-right coalition in favor of press freedom will prevail.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Jason hosts solo, giving him a chance to share the good news that he bought a house! For Jason, one of the biggest factors in his success story was receiving a scholarship to Recovery Unplugged, through the organization MusiCares, where Shireen Janti handled his case. MusiCares is a nonprofit that works to support the music community by offering help with preventative, emergency, and recovery programs. Shireen spent 18 years with MusiCares, and says the best part of her job was being able to say yes to people who asked for help. Shireen and Jason relate their shared experiences in recovery, and growing up with music industry parents. For Shireen, living in Los Angeles in the 70's and 80's was both an incredible experience, and an incredibly easy place to become an addict. When she finally got clean it was with the help of an organization similar to MusiCares, years later she never imagined she would find herself on the other side of the desk, saving lives. What does it take to finally see that you have a support system? What do we mean by, “you teach people how to treat you?” Check out the whole conversation on episode 70 of Talksicology. #RecoveryUnplugged #MusicCares #MusicCommunity #AddictionRecovery #SupportSystem #RecoveryStories #MusicIndustry #Talksicology #SuccessStory #AddictionPodcast

Y'all. Get ready for an amazing note-taking episode! Micah and Shireen Eldridge are two of my favorite pastors who are trusted, faithful friends of mine that I know are praying on my behalf. And as we talk about who might be missing on your board, it maybe a person (or people) who you know are consistently praying for you and want to know when there's something going on in your life that they can be praying about. We're going to talk today about what that looks like and why it all matters. Be sure to stick around here tomorrow on TSF for a special 10 minute bonus conversation with Micah and Shireen as they answer the question, "What if I want my pastor to be on my board?"
