Er Lars Jacob den mannlige Siv Stubsveen? Det kan i alle fall høres slik ut, for stemmen hans bærer preg av den andre forekomsten av sykdom på kort tid. Sist han falt under sykdommens svøpe, var etter en hektisk tur til New York City, hvor vi blant annet gikk på bar i Brooklyn med Vegas Tenold. Vegas, eller Vegard Tenold Aase, som han egentlig heter, er en eksilbergenser i NYC, som dro dit for å studere journalistikk på Columbia University og endte opp til skogs med nynazister og Ku Klux Klan-medlemmer under skrivingen av boken "Everything You Love Will Burn". I en årrekke har Vegas fordypet seg i ekstremismen, og vi graver oss ned i hvordan ensomhet og identitet henger sammen med fremveksten av ekstremisme. Vi trekker opp et lerret som om mulig er det bredeste hittil i Bærekraftseventyr-historien. Det blir a-cappella-kor og motorsykkelgjenger, Andrew Tate og mannosfæren, hvorvidt det er størst samhold i en teatertrupp eller i en orgie, og amerikansk 80-talls-TV. Vi snakker selleri og urteost, kommer inn på historien om hvordan Kanye West stjal et bilde fra en av Vegas sine artikler og spør oss om identitet er annerledes i internettalderen. Lars Jacob trekker lange musikklinjer, Vegas innser at å være Vice-journalist var en stor del av identiteten hans, Sveinung løper til skogs med rusmisbrukere og vi får høre om gråtende nynazister på et jorde i Georgia. Kjendisadvokaten Mike the Bulldog dukker opp, Vegas går på strippeklubb (gråtende), vi planlegger å invitere Vegas til NHH og vi er på grensen til å planlegge et album med Tom Waits-coverlåter. Det blir mer orgie-prat, Vegas bæres ut av et middagsselskap og vi samler på anekdoter, for det er vel kanskje meningen med livet. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Anti-Defamation League has invited controversy for its leaders' coziness with the Trump administration, and for its characterizations of student-led protests against Israel's mass-killing of Palestinian civilians. Mike and Jared recap the events that got us here, the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, and why they see the ADL's political maneuvering as cause for concern.Later on, Emmy-nominated reporter Vegas Tenold joins the show to discuss his experience working at the ADL from 2018-2020, and he offers his perspective on what the organization is doing today.

Vegas Tenold spent years as an investigative journalist, reporting on right-wing extremists. Today, he's an investigator for the Anti-Defamation League's Center for Extremism. He wrote the book Everything You Love Will Burn.Chapman University sociology professor Pete Simi spent six years embedded with right-wing extremists, which informed his blockbuster book, American Swastika. Both Simi and Tenold shared with Carrie Kaufman their insight into right-wing extremists, and their view of the violence that they feel will happen if President Trump wins reelection and if he doesn't.Carrie's co-hosts for the week - Leisa Mosely and Andrea Cole - talked about voter intimidation, and how voters may react to seeing people with semi-automatic weapons. And SafeNest CEO Liz Ortenberger talks about their new partnership with METRO to deal with domestic violence felonies. It is, says Ortenberger, the epitome of community policing.Links for this Episode:Proud Boys ShirtsSisolak on ExtremismTreasurer's Office Changes Fund to Help Small Businesses

I sat down for a longer conversation with Pete Simi - who embedded himself with right-wing extremist groups to write "American Swastika" - and Vegas Tenold, who wrote, "Everything You Love Will Burn: Inside the rebirth of white nationalism in America." This is the last question I asked them. Their answer was chilling.

Vegas Tenold is a journalist originally from Norway with an unusual focus. With the horrific massacre of children by a white supremacist in Norway in 2011 in mind, he covers extremists. He spends months at time in their midst. He gets to know them, how they tick, in real time. He was embedded with the forces who invaded Charlottesville, and he shares in this interview powerful insights into the mechanisms that brought these violent extremists together, and what might happen next.

This week on Sinica, Kaiser and Jeremy speak with Sulmaan Wasif Khan, assistant professor of international history and Chinese foreign relations at the Fletcher School at Tufts University, about his book, Haunted by Chaos: China’s Grand Strategy from Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping. He makes the case that China’s overriding concern is for maintaining the security and integrity of the state — something that, given China’s long history of foreign invasion, warlordism, civil war, and contested borders, hasn’t been easy. What to listen for on this week’s Sinica Podcast: 4:55: Does grand strategy need to be articulated, or communicated clearly to the general population? Usually the answer is yes, where nation states unify diplomatic, economic, and military power to pursue broadscale goals. However, China’s case is different, according to Sulmaan: “There does seem to be this overarching national objective, there is a sense in which the different categories of power [diplomacy, economics, and military] were calibrated to achieve that overarching national objective, but you don’t get it articulated that often, if at all.” 14:44: How much useful insight on contemporary Chinese politics can be gleaned by looking to the past? Sulmaan breaks it down: “China’s imperial past [is] much less grand than it’s typically considered to be… China’s empires at different points had different security threats. At various points, it wasn’t an Asia-centric order. So, simply imposing one version of the imperial past on China’s millennia of history, and saying, ‘This is the way it’s always been,’ seems to be a little misguided.” One feature from the imperial era that sticks out? Disorder. Sulmaan continues: “If you think about the Taiping Rebellion, for example, if you think about the Opium Wars — these are things that I think Chinese leaders still look to in the imperial past and worry about. The stories of the Opium Wars have never left the consciousness of the leadership, or Chinese people, for that matter. And that’s important to remember.” 30:07: “Hide your strength and bide your time” is a maxim spoken by Deng Xiaoping that has been used to define much of the era of reform and opening up. But is this truly an apt description of the time? Sulmaan states: “Hide and bide doesn’t really begin to sum up what [Deng] is up to. If you think about the sheer scale of economic change going on there, it’s kind of hard to keep that hidden — he’s almost like a kid when it comes to one country, two systems and joint development, how much he brags about those to anyone who will listen. That’s not hide and bide. If you’re sitting across the strait in Taiwan, you’re not seeing a lot of hiding and biding. 41:58: What are China’s future intentions on a grand strategic scale, and how do policymakers in the West feel about it? Sulmaan explains his view: “It says something about the way we typically think about China and other countries — that that kind of alarmism gains traction. There’s that old Atticus Finch line about walking around in someone else’s shoes and seeing how they feel, and I think much of the American foreign policy establishment is pretty bad at that. If the Chinese are doing something that we don’t like, it’s undemocratic or tyrannical. If the Russians are doing something we don’t like, ditto. If you’re not doing it our way, there’s something fundamentally wrong with you.” Recommendations: Jeremy: Nathan Hale — cartoonist, author, and illustrator of graphic novels for children.

There are two guests on this week's episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. Jonathan Metzl is the Frederick B. Rentschler II Professor of Sociology and Psychiatry, and the director of the Center for Medicine, Health, and Society, at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. He is the author of several books, including Prozac on the Couch and The Protest Psychosis. His new book is Dying of Whiteness: How the Politics of Racial Resentment is Killing America's Heartland. Dr. Metzl shares what it was like when Nazis descended upon his talk about Dying of Whiteness last Saturday at the Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington D.C.. Dr. Metzl locates this latest example of Trump-inspired right-wing hooligan behavior within a broader context of anti-Semitism and racism in America. Metzl also reflects on the moral crisis inflicting Republicans and other conservatives who continue to support Donald Trump and his regime. Tim Wise is the author of numerous books including his most recent Under the Affluence: Shaming the Poor, Praising the Rich and Sacrificing the Future of America. Wise connects the harassment of Dr. Metzl to a series of events last week which saw a lethal Nazi attack on a Jewish synagogue in California as well as Donald Trump continuing to lie about and literally whitewash his comments about the Nazi and other white supremacist lethal mob action in Charlottesville in 2017. Wise explains how whiteness, privilege and Jewish identity are connected to one another in a complicated and complex way--this is especially true in a moment of resurgent hatred against Jewish folks. Wise also highlights why white right-wing Christian terrorists are not considered a real threat by Trump's regime and many other (white) Americans. Tim Wise makes it clear: this is a moment of existential crisis in America and there is no room for sitting on the sidelines and not fighting back against right-wing thugs who want to overturn America's multiracial democracy. On this week's show, Chauncey DeVega calls out, again, why William Barr and the Trump regime must be stopped as together they are working to destroy the rule of law and to make Trump into a king or emperor for life. Chauncey also honors Riley Howell, the UNC Charlotte college student who gave his life in the heroic defense of others.

Tim Wise returns for the second installment of a two-part conversation here on The Chauncey DeVega Show. Tim Wise is the author of numerous books including his most recent Under the Affluence: Shaming the Poor, Praising the Rich and Sacrificing the Future of America. Time Wise explains how the "Varsity Blues" college and university admissions cheating and bribery scandal reflects a pathological culture among America's white elites, the many ways that unearned white advantages and white privilege along lines of race and class operate across all levels of America's educational system, and how "affirmative action" for white folks--especially the rich and upper classes--is the norm in American society. Tim Wise also explains why the beneficiaries of the "Varsity Blues" criminal conspiracy should be expelled from their colleges and universities. On this week's show, Chauncey DeVega ponders more examples of this broken malignant reality that is TrumpWorld. First, Donald Trump insults the deceased Senator John McCain and demands that the corpse-ghost thank him for providing a proper funeral. Second, Trump embraces and endorses the vile hateful violent views of his fellow authoritarian, President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, during their recent meeting at the White House.    And there is a fun "Easter egg" for ghetto nerd boys and girls on this week's podcast if they listen through to the very end of the show.  SELECTED LINKS OF INTEREST FOR THIS EPISODE OF THE CHAUNCEY DEVEGA SHOW  Tank!

This week's episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show focuses on the white supremacist neo-Nazi terror massacre in Christchurch, New Zealand which killed at least 50 people and left 50 others injured. Tim Wise is the author of numerous books including his most recent Under the Affluence: Shaming the Poor, Praising the Rich and Sacrificing the Future of America. Wise explains how the New Zealand terror attack is an example of the ways that whiteness and white privilege are experiencing a global existential crisis, Donald Trump's responsibility for encouraging and legitimating hate crimes and other white right-wing violence, and if the public should still be surprised by the evil events in Christchurch, New Zealand. On this week's show, Chauncey DeVega reads a profile of the Muslim brothers and sisters who were killed and injured by the neo-Nazi Trump-inspired mass murder Mosque attacks in New Zealand.  SELECTED LINKS OF INTEREST FOR THIS EPISODE OF THE CHAUNCEY DEVEGA SHOW  Does anyone doubt that Donald Trump inspired the New Zealand massacre?

There are two guests on this week's episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. Vegas Tenold is the author of the new book Everything You Love Will Burn: Inside the Rebirth of White Nationalism in America. He is an award-winning journalist who has covered the far right in America for years, as well as human rights in Russia, conflict in central Africa and the Middle East, and national security. A graduate of Columbia University's School of Journalism, his work has appeared in publications including the New York Times, Rolling Stone, New Republic, and Al Jazeera America.   Vegas spent 6 years embedded inside white supremacist and other white terrorist hate organizations. He shares his on the ground perspective and experience in Charlottesville during the white supremacist riot which killed Heather Heyer, what white supremacists actually envision for their ideal white "ethnostate", their delusions about "white identity" and "white European unity", as well as the ways that racism, whiteness, and toxic violent masculinity intersect. Vegas also offers some stories about how young white men (and women) are radicalized into joining white racist terrorist organizations.  Last Sunday, Kevin Willmott won an Oscar for his work writing Spike Lee's film BlacKkKlansman. Kevin is also a friend of The Chauncey DeVega Show. This is our victory lap. From the archives several months ago.  Kevin Willmott is a professor of film at The University of Kansas. He is also one of the writers on Spike Lee's great new film BlacKkKlansman. Kevin and Chauncey discuss the surreal truth of how Ron Stallworth, a black man, teamed up with a fellow police officer, who is Jewish, to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan. Kevin also reflects on how BlacKkKlansman is a direct counter to the racism and bigotry of Trump's America, W.E.B. Du Bois' concept of "double consciousness", blaxploitation films and the desperation of hate mongers. Chauncey and Kevin also share what happened when they watched BlacKkKlansman in a theater with white Donald Trump supporters.  On this week's show, Chauncey DeVega reflects on how politics and popular culture overlap in the form of the white savior film--and Oscar winner for best picture--Green Book and the multigenre spectacle that was Trump's personal fixer Michael Cohen's testimony before the House. Chauncey also explains the role played by paid for black conservative human prop Lynne Patton in the role of "best black friend" in a Trump racism romantic comedy.  SELECTED LINKS OF INTEREST FOR THIS EPISODE OF THE CHAUNCEY DEVEGA SHOW  Antisemitism rising sharply across Europe, latest figures show The Year in Hate: Rage Against Change  MSNBC Analyst: If Coast Guard Neo-Nazi Was Muslim, Trump's ‘Thumbs Would Be Sore' From All the Tweeting  Feds: Coast Guard Lieutenant Has Neo-Nazi Ties, Had Hit List of Targets  Charlottesville: Race and Terror – VICE News Tonight on HBO IF YOU ENJOYED THIS WEEK'S SHOW YOU MAY LIKE THESE EPISODES OF THE CHAUNCEY DEVEGA SHOW AS WELL Ep. 216: Seth Abramson Explains How Robert Mueller Will Put the Trump Crime Family in Prison  Ep. 200-2: Joe Feagin on Liberal White Racism and "Colorblind" America  Ep. 200-1: Black KkKlansman/Joe Feagin on Donald Trump, Racism, and Elite White Male Power  Ep. 157: Tom Nichols Explains Donald Trump and the Nuclear "Madman Theory"  Ep. 149: Analyzing the White Supremacist Terrorism in Charlottesville  WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

For six years, journalist Vegas Tenold embedded himself among the members of three of America's most ideologically extreme white nationalist groups including the KKK, neonazis, and the Traditionalist Workers Party.  He reveals how this self-described Norwegian socialist managed to gain access to some of the worst hate groups in America, and why he says the most dangerous groups aren’t the KKK or neonazis, but a new class of well organized activists seeking to take their hateful ideology mainstream.  He recalls covering the notorious Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville  and explains why law enforcement was partly to blame for the violence.  He talks about some of the dog whistles that politicians use to signal fidelity with white nationalists, his experience watching the 2016 election returns with the head of the Traditionalist Workers Party, and why he says these groups are ultimately doomed to fail.  Plus the dangers of being a bald white Norwegian at a skinhead rally.

Admittedly that would not make a great Hallmark card sentiment.  Then again coming from one of the leaders of the white nationalist movement upon learning of Donald Trump's victory in 2016, what might you expect?  Vegas Tenold, author of the book ‘Everything You Love Will Burn' was embedded with groups like the KKK, the National … Continue reading EP 126 EVERYTHING YOU LOVE WILL BURN

Last week, we put out a special show hosted by The Guardian US's Lois Beckett, devoted to how reporters should approach the alt-right, and white supremacy, in America, called "Face the Racist Nation." As a bonus, we're putting out a full interview with one of the voices in that show: Norwegian journalist Vegas Tenold, whose new book, “Everything You Love Will Burn” chronicles his time covering the far right, up close and personal, for close to a decade. Lois talks to Vegas about how he has seen the far right evolve, the mistakes he sees journalists making and his relationship with the co-founder of the racist Traditionalist Worker Party, Matthew Heimbach. In addition to listening to the full show, make sure to go to our website to check out the special quizzes we made that delve further into the sticky issues in this hour.
