Podcast appearances and mentions of Vijay Prashad

Vijay Prashad. He is an Indian historian, author, political commentator and journalist. He has also become one of the most uncompromising voices in speaking out against global injustice today. 

Two years ago, a fragile but hopeful peace in Sudan was broken when the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) – which are both arms of the Sudanese state – went to war with each other. In the fighting since, more than 150,000 people have been killed and 13 million of a total of a 51 million person population, have been displaced. Famine is currently significant. And there are renewed reports of cholera tearing through the region, which has led to corpses rotting in the nile river, according to an Al Jazeera report.  But during these past two years of civil war, most media that covers international affairs and violence, and this includes us at KPFA, has focused on international coverage elsewhere, failing to give proper attention to the conflict in Sudan, often writing it off because we don't have strong contacts or because the war is somehow over our heads.  We're joined in conversation about the violence in Sudan, it's causes and potential pathways out, by Vijay Prashad, a historian and writer, and the executive director of the Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, which recently produced its 20th newsletter, titled “A Language of Blood Has Gripped Our World,” addressing the conflict in Sudan.

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Aug 19, 2022 In this landmark episode, we sit down with the legendary Noam Chomsky and renowned historian Vijay Prashad to discuss their insightful new book, The Withdrawal: Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, and the Fragility of U.S. Power. Exploring the aftermath of America's military engagements, Chomsky and Prashad illuminate the complexities of U.S. imperial ambitions, the consequences - moral and material - of foreign interventions, and the growing cracks in America's global dominance. Noam Chomsky, widely celebrated as one of the greatest intellectual figures of our time, brings his sharp analytical mind and decades of political activism to this conversation. Vijay Prashad, director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research and chief correspondent for Globetrotter, adds his deep historical expertise and critical insights into global politics.

Cuba, dat is sigaren, salsa en … socialisme. Een klein Caraïbisch eiland dat al 66 jaar lang haar eigen weg kiest en de mensen op één zet. Wist je dat je gratis naar de dokter en naar school kan in Cuba? Klinkt allemaal redelijk goed, en toch lijkt het eiland een bedreiging voor de Verenigde Staten. Maar waarom? Waarom is gratis geneeskunde een bedreiging voor de VS? Hoe komt het dat ze een piepklein eiland met amper 11 miljoen inwoners, zo agressief aanvallen met een economische blokkade? Fakto ging het zelf uitzoeken in Cuba en kwam terug met getuigenissen van dokters, studenten en andere bewoners van het eiland.In België gaat Lilo op bezoek bij Anne Delespaul, provinciaal voorzitster van PVDA Antwerpen en huisarts bij Geneeskunde voor het Volk.

“This is not just an Israeli genocide - this is an Israeli, European and US genocide!” Vijay Prashad exposes the moral decline of the global north in the age of hyper-Imperialism and its continued war against “defiance” found in the global south. In a recent report published by Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research titled Hyper-Imperialism: A Dangerous Decadent New Stage, Prashad argues the global north has heightened its reliance upon force to insist on obedience.  Read the report: https://thetricontinental.org/studies...

When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, many countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America didn't join the United States and Europe in jumping to Kyiv's defense. Their leaders wondered why they should oppose Russia's aggression after watching Washington get away with decades of military interventions from Iraq to Libya, raising the question of whether opposing the use of force somewhere necessitates opposing it everywhere.

In a premortem from 2022, that is now a postmortem after yesterday's election, we are reposting our interview with Noam Chomsky from 2022 on the rightward shift of the Democrats. A very interview for Nov. 6, 2024. --------------------------- From the 2022 episode: Republicans go to war . . . Democrats go to brunch! The past 50 years have seen a dramatic shift to the far-right in American politics. On the heels of the 1972 McGovern debacle, the Democrats all but abandoned their New Deal heritage and moved swiftly to a stronger pro-business position and embraced Neo-Liberalism. They abandoned class politics and giving priority to workers and the poor and instead have embraced ID politics and wokeness. As the Republicans stole elections and Supreme Court seats, gerrymandered congressional districts, packed the courts, and ran scorched-earth campaigns at every level, the Democrats have offered a timid resistance at best. In this fantastic interview, Noam Chomsky gives us a history and analysis of the evolution of the Democrats from the party of FDR to a party that's Republican-Lite. We discussed the Carter campaign, the Trilateral Commission, the DLC and the Clintons, Obama, Democratic hawkishness, and other factors in the Democratic retreat from progressive ideas, all while the GOP waged an open and ruthless war on workers, non-whites, women, and others. Don't miss this important interview with the world's greatest living intellectual. Professor Chomsky is an American linguist, political philosopher, social critic and political activist. He is Institute Professor Emeritus in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT and Laureate Professor of Linguistics and Haury Chair in the Program in Environment and Social Justice at the University of Arizona. At 93, he is still active; writing and giving interviews to media all over the world. He is the author of scores of books, including American Power and the New Mandarins, Towards a New Cold War, Necessary Illusions, Hegemony or Survival, Failed States: The Abuse of Power and the Assault on Democracy and Requiem for the American Dream. His most recent book is “The Withdrawal: Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, and the Fragility of U.S. Power,” co-authored with Vijay Prashad. -------------- Outro- "G&R Blues" by Moody Links// + The Withdrawal:Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, and the Fragility of U.S. Power (https://bit.ly/3DPoAOI) + G&R: Noam Chomsky on Oliver Stone's "JFK Revisited" (https://apple.co/3FepBwT) + G&R: Noam Chomsky on the 1960s (https://bit.ly/ChomskyGandR) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast +https://greenandredpodcast.org/ +Join our Discord community: https://discord.gg/aP3MAC6b Support the Green and Red Podcast// + Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast + Or make a one time donation here: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

The Global North or the West is a group of countries led by the United States. In juxtaposition is the Global South, once called the Third World. In recent years, the Global North has undergone a significant economic and political decline. The geopolitical landscape is shifting thus opening new possibilities for Global South countries, particularly for China. A dramatic example of America's isolation was the UN vote on Palestinian membership. The vote was 143 in favor, 25 abstentions and 9 against. Joining the U.S. no vote were such powerhouses as Nauru, Micronesia, and Palau. Increasingly, the U.S. position in the world is weakening. Its double standards, one set of rules for the master and his servants and another set for everyone else, has not won Washington many friends in the Global South. Recorded at Connolly Books.
