On this slightly-lighter-than-usual episode, our hosts Flint and Ashleigh talk through: A new direct care clinic for the trans community will open in New York City, but is it all that was promised by mayor Zohran Mamdani? A quick run through of some developments around the EHRC, including some serious questioning by the Women & Equalities Committee. The sterling work done by the local government committee within UNISON. Stories of snowflakes upset that people disagree with them, in Loser's Corner!  And a nice chill one in our meat this time, with a nice long chat with nonbinary actor Luyanda Lewis-Nyawo, as featured in Baldur's Gate III, Wednesday and most recently, the new Russell T.

Emisión del martes 02 de Junio de 2026 Desde 1976, la Universidad de Sonora acumula más de 577 días de huelga efectiva: el primer lugar nacional entre las universidades públicas del país. La huelga del Sindicato de Trabajadores Académicos (STAUS), que estalló el 14 de mayo, una semana después de que el Sindicato de Trabajadores y Empleados (STEUS) levantara su propio paro de 21 días, no es una anomalía. Es el ejemplo de un modelo de negociación colectiva roto. "Deja que tus oídos te abran los ojos." #RuizHealyTimes #AbriendoLaConversación www.ruizhealytimes.com

A teenage motorcyclist who died in a crash near Sittingbourne has been described as the 'kindest of souls'. Oliver Tarvit collided with a VW transporter while riding along Lower Road in Tonge last month. The 17 year-old's parents have now vowed to improve the safety of the 60 mile per hour road. Also in today's podcast, a union's warning staff at Darent Valley Hospital are struggling to maintain safe hygiene standards because of a water supply issue. A fault in the heating system means taps in a large part of the building in Dartford have been deemed contaminated since last week. UNISON claims patients are being put at risk.

Episode 21 is all about local government reorganistion in England, with a smidgeon of English devolution thrown in for good measure. UNISON members are committed to ensuring high-quality public services, and there is genuine concern about the potential impact of reorganisation on day-to-day council services, particularly workforce capacity and retention. With the right support (and funding), the devolution process can result in positive outcomes for workers, local authorities, and the public. Therefore, councils must be well-resourced for devolution to be effective and ensure their workforce is supported, well remunerated, and trained.Devolution is not the cure for austerity. It can work as long as the vision of English local government is one where power is devolved from Westminster, decisions are made locally, and services are fully funded. Councils and their staff are essential for sustainable economic growth and can make a significant contribution to regional prosperity.We need to point out that local government reorganisation and devolution doesn't apply everywhere in England, for example in Greater London and in the North East where it has already happened.To talk about all things reorganisation, we are joined by two amazing guests, Mo Baines and Clare Williams.

This debate was part of Battle of Ideas North on 7 March 2026 in Manchester. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION The Supreme Court judgement in April 2025, in the case of For Women Scotland v The Scottish Ministers, was seen as a ‘landmark ruling' in clarifying the definition of a woman as based on biological sex at birth. The hope was that by clarifying the law, women's rights, including single-sex spaces, would be protected and, more broadly, gender ideology would wither on the vine.  Yet, almost a year on, many institutions have failed to stand by the definition of ‘woman' set out in the ruling, instead promoting ‘trans-inclusive culture'. They have ignored the need to provide single-sex spaces for women, and retain policies that fuel discrimination against gender-critical staff, volunteers and visitors. Is this surprising when the UK government itself seems reluctant to fully pursue implementation of the ruling? Having been in possession for months of clear recommendations from the Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), Bridget Phillipson, the women and equalities secretary, has still to publish guidance on single-sex spaces. Similarly, the culture secretary, Lisa Nandy, has been criticised for her weak protection of women's sport. Her stance focuses on ‘including everybody' and continues to suggest that the issue of trans athletes competing alongside biological women is not clear cut. The Scottish government has been similarly tardy in implementing the ruling, even though the judgement was specifically against it. What's more, public-sector institutions, along with charities, NGOs and trade unions, seem reluctant to accept biological sex as real, and insist on an ideological commitment to trans-inclusive policies, at the expense of women. Many schools and teachers openly defy the ruling in order to support trans ideology, often acting behind parents' backs. Recently, trade unions and organisations such as the Royal College of Nursing and Unison have either openly supported action against gender-critical feminists and single-sex spaces or retreated into bureaucratic cowardice, saying action is not possible until guidance is issued. The recent victory at an employment tribunal of eight nurses from Darlington against their NHS trust bosses, who penalised them for challenging the use of the single-sex changing rooms by a trans-identifying male, is a positive. But why do workers need to resort to the courts and tribunals to ensure institutions and workplaces enforce the law? Why are governments and institutions so willing to drag their feet on implementing a ruling given by the highest court in the land? What are the consequences of this for the rule of law, even democracy? How can we rescue institutions from the capture of trans and other ideologies? What is the balance between lawfare and building a wider political movement capable of pushing through change?

Most contractors lose opportunities not because they're unqualified—but because they don't understand how buyers actually want to purchase. In this episode of the Federal Help Center Podcast, Ryan Atencio breaks down how Unison Marketplace works, why agencies love it, and how simplified acquisitions under $350,000 create some of the fastest paths to revenue in government contracting. You'll learn how shaping requirements with custom kits and part numbers keeps you in control, why crossing the $350K threshold can instantly complicate a deal, and how consistent follow-ups with contracting officers and program managers put you top of mind when real requirements appear. This episode is a masterclass in positioning, timing, and selling the way the government prefers to buy. Key Takeaways How Unison Marketplace enables fast, simplified purchases under $350K Why custom kits and part numbers help you shape and protect opportunities How staying visible with government buyers leads to inbound quote requests If you want to learn more about the community and to join the webinars go to: https://federalhelpcenter.com/  Website: https://govcongiants.org/  Connect with Encore Funding: http://govcongiants.org/funding

The discussion reveals that effects are composable operations that encapsulate side effects and defer execution, giving developers the right handles to manage unpredictability through compiler-checked types.The authors explain how ZIO tracks three critical types: outputs, failures, and environmental requirements, enabling better testing with mock clocks and random number generators.They share their intentional avoidance of intimidating functional programming terminology like "monads" proving you don't need mathematical foundations to understand effects. The conversation covers effect systems' expansion beyond Scala into TypeScript, Kotlin, and new languages like Unison and Roc, and how their collaborative writing process with strict constraints like 47-character line limits - created a coherent 100-page book readable in portrait mode on your phone.RECOMMENDED BOOKSBill Frasure, Bruce Eckel, James Ward • Effect Oriented Programming • https://amzn.to/4sO6wLVBruce Eckel & Svetlana Isakova • Atomic Kotlin • https://amzn.to/4qT1gEQBruce Eckel • Thinking in C++ • https://amzn.to/4qnrIGWAndrew Harmel-Law • Facilitating Software Architecture • https://amzn.eu/d/5kZKVfUSam Keen • Clean Architecture with Python • https://amzn.to/4pBT5g0Eric Evans • Domain-Driven Design • https://amzn.to/3tnGhwmBlueskyTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookCHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

The Green Party of England and Wales has emerged as a contender for national power since Zack Polanski took over the leadership back in August. He talks the good talk about being an eco-populist and certainly knows how to get a message to people in a fractured media world. But surely he can't do it all by himself? Who else is burning the torch for eco-socialism in the greens? This week Ads and Andrew are joined by Steve Jackson, a co-founder of Greens Organise. They discuss why Steve setup this group in the Green Party to drive the it leftward, what is the political culture of the greens and how it differs from the Labour Party and we discuss how the Greens can reach out to working class neighbourhoods who Reform are trying to court. Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas, we shall see you next year. LinksLearn more about Greens Organise with the link below. https://greensorganise.uk/Shout outs To everyone Andrea Egan - new Gen Sec of Unison! Zack Polanksi - new leader of the Green PartySupport the show

President Xi Jinping's keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the Global Leaders' Meeting on Women has drawn widespread acclaim from foreign participants and overseas experts, who welcomed his proposals as a pivotal step toward accelerating gender equality and women's empowerment worldwide.习近平主席在全球妇女峰会开幕式上发表的主旨演讲，得到了外国参会者及海外专家的广泛赞誉。他们认为，主席提出的倡议是在全球范围内加快性别平等与妇女赋权的关键一步。They said the convening of the meeting holds milestone significance, demonstrating China's global leadership in promoting and protecting human rights and development, and advancing women's status.他们表示，此次会议的召开具有里程碑意义，彰显了中国在促进和保护人权与发展、提升妇女地位方面的全球领导力。"Women play an important role in creating, promoting and carrying forward human civilization. And the international community has a shared responsibility to advance the cause of women," Xi emphasized in his address, calling for tangible actions.习近平在讲话中强调：“妇女是人类文明的创造者、推动者和传承者，推动妇女事业发展是国际社会的共同责任”，并呼吁采取切实行动。He made four proposals, calling for collective efforts to foster an enabling environment for women's growth, propel high-quality development for women, strengthen governance frameworks to protect women's rights and enhance global cooperation on gender equality.他提出四点倡议，呼吁各方共同努力，为妇女成长营造有利环境、推动妇女高质量发展、健全妇女权益保障治理体系、加强性别平等领域全球合作。Recalling the Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing 30 years ago, Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations Amina J.Mohammed underscored the pioneering role of the Beijing conference, noting that it lit "a fire of possibility" for women worldwide. She said she is very glad to see China and other states "who have kept this flame alive".联合国常务副秘书长阿明娜・穆罕默德回顾了30年前在北京举行的第四次世界妇女大会，强调该会议具有开创性意义，为全球妇女点燃了“希望之火”。她表示，很高兴看到中国及其他国家“延续了这一火种”。Hosting a second historic conference in Beijing is a reminder of the shared responsibility to deliver on women's rights, she added.她补充道，在北京再次举办这一历史性会议，提醒着各方肩负着落实妇女权利的共同责任。The senior UN official commended Xi for "leading this Global Leaders' Meeting on Women and demonstrating his genuine commitment to the women's rights agenda".这位联合国高级官员赞扬习近平“牵头举办此次全球妇女峰会，并切实致力于推进妇女权利议程”。Anita Amorim, head of the International Labour Organization's Emerging and Special Partnerships Unit, said that in the context of South-South cooperation, women's empowerment offers a strategic lever for resilience and shared growth, while noting that the Global Leaders' Meeting on Women has served as both a celebration of progress and a critical point of reflection on the persistent gaps in women's rights and empowerment worldwide.国际劳工组织新兴与特别伙伴关系司负责人安妮塔・阿莫林表示，在南南合作背景下，妇女赋权是增强韧性与实现共同增长的战略抓手。她指出，全球妇女峰会既是对已有进展的肯定，也为反思全球妇女权利与赋权领域仍存在的差距提供了重要契机。Amorim said that as challenges including conflict, debt distress and a cost-of-living crisis have deepened inequalities, the meeting came at an essential time, focusing on women's advancement in the economy and advocating opportunities for both women and men.阿莫林称，冲突、债务困境、生活成本危机等挑战加剧了不平等，此次会议的召开恰逢其时，聚焦妇女经济赋权，并倡导为女性和男性创造平等机会。She said that over the years, the ILO has cooperated with China through South-South cooperation, bringing tangible benefits to countries in the Global South, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, in promoting employment, skills development and social protection, while promoting women's entrepreneurship and gender equality.她表示，多年来，国际劳工组织通过南南合作与中国开展合作，在促进就业、技能培训、社会保障等领域为全球南方国家（尤其是亚太地区国家）带来了切实利益，同时也推动了妇女创业与性别平等。Nahla Haidar El Addal, head of the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women, highly praised Xi's advocacy of supporting women in shouldering more responsibilities, engaging deeply in global governance and sharing the fruits of governance.联合国消除对妇女歧视委员会主席纳拉・海达高度评价习近平提出的支持妇女承担更多责任、深度参与全球治理、共享治理成果的主张。She pointed out that the key challenge in the current global governance system lies in the lack of coordinated, unified, clear and well-defined rules and a procedural framework, which makes it difficult for countries to form synergy in their actions. Therefore, she stressed that building international consensus and improving governance rules are of critical importance.她指出，当前全球治理体系面临的核心挑战在于缺乏协调统一、清晰明确的规则与程序框架，导致各国难以形成行动合力。因此，她强调，凝聚国际共识、完善治理规则至关重要。Russel Harland, deputy branch secretary and international relations officer of the Surrey County branch of UNISON, one of the largest trade unions in the United Kingdom, said he believes that China is giving vital impetus to the fight against gender inequality by embedding the shared responsibility to advance women's development, such as urging tangible and accessible policies to channel more quality health and educational resources to all women.英国最大工会之一“公共与商业服务工会” 萨里郡分会副秘书长兼国际关系官员拉塞尔・哈兰德（音译）表示，他认为中国正通过落实推动妇女发展的共同责任，为消除性别不平等注入重要动力，例如推动制定切实可行的政策，向全体妇女倾斜更多优质医疗与教育资源。He noted that Xi's invigorating words are in line with China's Global Development Initiative, which calls for staying committed to development as a priority.他指出，习近平主席振奋人心的讲话与中国提出的全球发展倡议一脉相承，该倡议强调坚持以发展为优先事项。President Pro Tempore of the Liberian Senate Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence said, "China's commitment of $10 million to UN Women is highly significant for African nations, many of which are already partnering with the international organization to empower women.利比里亚参议院临时议长扬布利・康加・劳伦斯表示：“中国向联合国妇女署承诺提供1000万美元资金，这对非洲国家意义重大——许多非洲国家已在与该国际组织合作推进妇女赋权”。"We look forward to this partnership and hope that small countries, in particular, will benefit from it," she added.她补充道：“我们期待这一合作能带来实效，尤其希望小国能从中受益”。Marija Petrovic, a journalist from Serbia who covered the event, voiced her strong support for Xi's emphasis on improving girls' and women's rights in education.报道此次会议的塞尔维亚记者玛丽娅・彼得罗维奇表示，她坚决支持习近平关于改善女童与妇女教育权利的主张。She said it is essential for girls to have education and their own money, as independence grants them the freedom to make their own choices.她认为，女童接受教育、拥有独立收入至关重要，因为经济独立能让她们获得自主做选择的自由。pivotaladj.关键的，核心的/ˈpɪvətl/empowermentn.赋权，增权/ɪmˈpaʊəmənt/tangibleadj.切实的，具体的；可触摸的/ˈtændʒəbl/synergyn.协同作用，合力/ˈsɪnədʒi/

It's Theresa and Marielena talking the art of living together on Spirituality and Politics. First up, a share about a special local happening. On Sunday, July 21, Hey Neighbor Food Club is hosting their first event at the Old Dutch Church in Kingston (4–6pm). It's a preorder-and-pickup food event featuring handmade dishes -- tamales, pupusas, empanadas -- prepared by a small group of incredible local chefs, most of whom are female immigrants launching their very first food businesses.The chefs are part of the Briico Food Academy, which helps new entrepreneurs build sustainable income, community connections, and confidence through food, without needing outside capital or formal business experience. Each meal tells a story of migration, tradition, and resilience, and proceeds go directly to the chefs.Marielena shares her experience teaching art to women incarcerated at the Ulster County Jail and the many interactions that taught her about them and their lives including surprising insights through the vision boards the women created, their creative writing exercises, and how they collaborated with one another. Through that experience she shares her thoughts about how living together in an incarcerated setting can teach us about the art of living together in a broader community. The womens' art "Voices Unbound" is currently exhibited at Unison in New Paltz now through August 31st.This weekend is Upstate Art Weekend.

Send us a textSecondary music classrooms are increasingly challenged by student disengagement—especially when traditional models fail to resonate with today's learners. In this compelling episode, professional bassist and music educator Richard Frank introduces his Unison-Based Content (UBC) approach, a student-centered framework designed to revitalize music programs and re-engage learners of all skill levels.UBC shifts away from the conventional jazz band structure, offering a more inclusive model that welcomes diverse instrumentation—including non-traditional instruments—and varying skill levels from the start. By blending formal (notation and theory) and informal (playing by ear) learning traditions, Frank creates a “blended space” where all students feel validated and empowered.Educators will gain practical strategies for:Engaging mixed-skill ensembles with adaptable arrangementsIncorporating tab notation and alternative instrumentsEncouraging improvisation through simultaneous group playingPromoting student agency through choice and music analysisSupporting SEL through confidence-building collaborationConnecting classroom music to real-world performance opportunitiesIdeal for secondary educators seeking to refresh their approach or supplement existing programs, this method bridges the gap between traditional music education and contemporary student needs.Explore ready-to-use resources at PlayTheGroove.com and discover how UBC can transform your classroom into a space where all students groove—and grow.

Unison is fully launched into our summer sermon series called 'U Asked for It'. Lead pastor Chase preaches today about Unison's posture towards women in leadership in church ministry. 

Happy Father's Day! The sermon at Unison is about men today, but this message is for women too. Lead Pastor Chase preaches about masculinity based on the best example ever to live, Jesus. 

It's our monthly conversation about Spirituality and Politics. Joining Marielena and me in the first half of the show today is Marcina Hale, Program Director at Reconsider. She was on the show back in 2019. (Check out show #52 to hear her story). She is an Executive Producer of Fantastic Fungi, Producer of Disturbing the Peace and There is Another Way, and a facilitator for Reconsider's work ”play” shop experiences, which have been held in the U.S. and internationally. Marcina spoke at TEDxKC Women about how to change the world in which we are living. Marcina's vision is to catalyze the creation of experiences that evoke thought and conversations that both challenge and inspire new ways of relating to ourselves and to life itself.There Is Another Way tells the story of a group of visionaries who refuse to surrender to violence and injustice, and in doing so show that another path is possible - for them, for us, for all of humanity. As we are all faced with essential questions about who we are, will we choose collective liberation, where the needs, rights, and safety of all are prioritized - in which our humanity comes first, knowing that no one is free until everyone is free.Combatants for Peace, nominated for two Nobel Peace Prizes, is an extraordinary bi-national group of former enemy combatants -Israelis and Palestinians - working together during an ongoing armed conflict. Faced with the devastation and escalating violence of October 7th and the war in Gaza, the very core of the movement must face great challenges and show that there is another way. The first question they have to face is their own belief... Is this possible?Reconsider is hosting a virtual screening of the film this Thursday, June 12th and an in person screening at the Rosendale Theater on July 25th.Our conversation inspires some deep reflection on what we believe is possible, and what we're doing to hold that vision for peace.Marielena shares info about the upcoming "Voices Unbound," Art Exhibit from incarcerated women at Unison following their Art Spark Program. June 21st opening from 1-5pm. The show will run through July.

Summary In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various topics including the impact of weather on society, the hysterical reporting surrounding gun control, and the violence in Chicago over Memorial Day weekend. The conversation also touches on legal accountability in the Shields case, the importance of open carry laws, and the recent fine imposed on Walmart for selling realistic toy guns. Throughout the discussion, the hosts emphasize the need for better training for law enforcement regarding gun laws and the absurdity of certain regulations. Takeaways The weather can influence societal perceptions and behaviors. Hysterical reporting often drives public policy and fear. Gun control debates are often framed around manufactured crises. Chicago continues to struggle with high murder rates despite strict gun laws. Legal accountability in gun-related incidents is often misapplied. Open carry laws are essential for personal freedom and safety. Law enforcement needs better training on gun laws to avoid unnecessary confrontations. The Shields case raises questions about liability in tragic incidents. Walmart's fine for selling toy guns highlights the absurdity of regulations. The fight for gun rights is ongoing and requires constant vigilance. Keywords Armed American Radio, gun control, Chicago violence, open carry, legal accountability, weather reporting, Memorial Day, Shields case, Walmart fine, hysterical reporting  

Lead Pastor Chase preaches today about generational curses. This is a teaser sermon for our summer sermon series called U Asked for It. We take any and every question from Unison congregants and preach about them every summer! Get ahold of a staff member to ask a question!

Sister Rosetta Tharpe was known as the ‘godmother of rock and roll' and influenced countless musicians from Elvis to Johnny Cash. Now Olivier Award-winning performer Beverley Knight is playing Sister Rosetta in a new production, Marie and Rosetta, which has just opened at the Rose Theatre in London. It tells the story of Rosetta and her singing partner, Marie Knight, described as one of the most remarkable and revolutionary duos in music history. Beverley joins Nuala McGovern in the Woman's Hour studio to discuss how the show hopes to restore these forgotten musical heroines to the spotlight. The Government has announced that care workers will no longer be recruited from overseas as part of a crackdown on visas for lower-skilled workers. The care sector has criticised the plans as "cruel" and "short-sighted". To discuss this and what good care looks like, Nuala is joined by Gavin Edwards, Head of Social Care at Unison, and care worker Kathryn Faulke, author of the memoir Every Kind of People: A Journey into the Heart of Care Work.It's thought that around 3 to 4% of people in the UK, that's one in 20, have ADHD - Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. However many women still remain undiagnosed for decades of their lives, with those in their 40s, 50s and 60s only now discovering they have it for the first time. Jo Beazley was diagnosed with ADHD just two years ago at the age of 49, after her symptoms worsened during the menopause. She joins Nuala along with Amanda Kirby, the former chair of the ADHD Foundation and a professor in the field of neurodiversity. This week we'll be hearing different perspectives on the recent Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman under the Equality Act, and how it could and should be interpreted on the ground. The Equality and Human Rights Commission has issued interim guidance that, in places open to the public, trans women shouldn't use women's facilities such as toilets. Today Nuala speaks to Robin Moira White, a barrister who specialises in taking discrimination cases, and who is also a trans woman. Robin transitioned in 2011 and is co-author of A Practical Guide to Transgender Law. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths

In this densely-packed episode, Ashleigh, Flint and Alyx consider many of the different reactions to the UK supreme court''s recent judgement, including: Updates on the many, many protests taking place all over the UK, with a helpful list compiled by the WTT team. The interim guidance from the EHRC, what's wrong with it and why it's not fit for purpose. Reactions from different UK unions, including the BMA and UNISON. Policy changes from sports bodies, the British Transport Police and Barclays. Conflicting reactions and statements from within the Labour party, the SNP, Greens and others. So many open letters. Our experiences at protests and why it's important to go to them and show the government how unpopular this is. Loser's Corner and Trans Joy, for your amusement.

Show CLIP: Media rant dems lie in scripted unison- echo statements by Kate Dalley

Those of us who survived the 60s did have one invaluable take-away ... culture follows music.  While powerful anti-establishment lyrics did temporarily redirect the war industry, so we thought, those tumultuous times we're orchestrated to plant insidious seeds for a larger psyop that would later reveal itself. On this Alfacast we have a delightful musical talent making waves through music, but with eyes wide open.  Grant ‘Prezence' Ellman is a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and producer from Sedona, Arizona. His 2021 truth-bomb dismantling the SCAM of “covid” and “government” was censored from Spotify within a week of release. Prezence is fiercely devoted to his mission of spreading TRUTH, FREEDOM and LOVE through radio ready records, vivid videos and lucid live performances. His studio work is completely self-produced, mixed, mastered, shot, edited and promoted, with a true DIY ethos and work ethic. On stage, Prezence captivates audiences by live looping multiple instruments, singing soulful vocals & live mixing — "dubbing" his loops. His innovative Ableton Live rig pays homage to dub pioneers King Tubby & Lee "Scratch" Perry as well as modern dub masters Umberto Echo and Laurent “Tippy I” Alfred. With heavy inspiration from the modern reggae of Midnite, Protoje, Jesse Royal, Kabaka Pyramid, Grant weaves elements of funk, jazz and rock into a sonic tapestry that is uniquely, and undeniably, Prezence. In just one false election cycle, he's released three albums worth of singles, videos to boot. His empowering energy has graced main stages at Rise & Vibes, Unison, Music & Sky, Totality, Viva Iriezona, Anarchapulco, The Greater Reset, where he's supported the likes of Steel Pulse, Tribal Seeds, Kabaka Pyramid, The Elovaters, The Movement, Mike Love and Dub FX — just to name a few. Prezence is grateful to have found his life's purpose making music and sharing that gift with others.  Please join this episode as we have an insightful discussion on the present state of our world, and if we're lucky, Prezence just may entertain us with an inspiring tune.
