Podcasts about Weather Underground

Megyn Kelly begins the show with the latest developments in the Karmelo Anthony case, the hiring of a high-profile new legal team, Sunny Hostin's disgusting and misleading claims about the trial on The View, the efforts to inject race into the case despite the jury's verdict, and more. Then, Victor Davis Hanson, author of "The Counterrevolution," joins to discuss the lies being spread about the Karmelo Anthony case, from Hostin's comments on The View to Team Anthony's changing narrative after the verdict, how it fits into the pattern of racialization in other high-profile criminal cases, Weather Underground co-founders Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn spotted in the third row at Barack Obama's library opening, recent reports involving Bryon Noem continuing to message a dominatrix after his fetish was revealed, the ongoing allegations on bizarre behavior that are still surfacing, and more. Then, James Hamilton, former FBI and security expert, and Maureen O'Connell, host of "Best Case Worst Case," join to discuss bombshell new reporting in the Nancy Guthrie case, the contents of a second note allegedly sent after her disappearance, what the note may reveal about her fate, how the note's tone sounds "feminine," what the unusual language may reveal about the sender's relationship to the case, questions surrounding whether the FBI should've paid the ransom, whether authorities are close to an arrest, and more.   Relief Factor: Reclaim your mobility and celebrate your freedom from aches this year by grabbing your $17.76 3-week QuickStart at https://ReliefFactor.com or by calling 800-4-RELIEF.

Zayd Ayers Dohrn was born in a safe house during the decade his parents were in hiding. In 1969, Zayd's mother and father, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, founded the revolutionary group called the Weather Underground. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover declared Bernadine the most dangerous woman in America. In their lives underground, Ayers and Dohrn committed acts of violence like bombing government buildings to call attention to the Vietnam war. They also gave birth to two children. Zayd has written a memoir of those years called Dangerous, Dirty, Violent, and Young. We talk about political ideals and how the role of revolutionary urban guerrilla clashed with the idea of raising a family. "Now What?" is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

Zayd Ayers Dohrn was born underground, the son of Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers, two cofounders of the Weather Underground, a militant, radical leftist group of the 1970s that used tactics like the after-hours bombings of government buildings—including the Capitol, the State Department, and the Pentagon—to protest the Vietnam War and racial injustice. “When I was just 3 years old, I learned to recognize plainclothes police officers and undercover agents in a crowd,” Dohrn writes, “It was a bit like playing a game—a grown-up version of dress-up or make believe—that only my family was good at or knew all the rules.” By the time Dohrn was born in 1977, his parents had been hiding from the FBI for close to a decade, working cash jobs from San Francisco to Harlem using assumed names and forged papers. Their decision to have a family while on the run is just one of the tangled contradictions that Dohrn writes about his new book, Dangerous, Dirty, Violent, and Young, which is both a family memoir and a social history of a forgotten chapter of American activism. An acclaimed playwright and screenwriter, Zayd Ayers Dohrn is a professor at Northwestern University and director of the MFA in Writing for Screen and Stage at Northwestern University. He is the creator of the narrative podcast Mother Country Radicals and the rock protest musical Revolution(s).Go beyond the episode:Zayd Ayers Dohrn's Dangerous, Dirty, Violent, and Young: A Fugitive Family in the Revolutionary UndergroundListen to Mother Country RadicalsIn 2022, we interviewed another member of the underground: Laura Kaplan, a member of the Jane collective that provided abortions before Roe v.

Mike and Susan Klonsky are joined by Zayd Ayers Dohrn, playwright, screenwriter, and author of the new memoir Dangerous, Dirty, Violent & Young: A Fugitive Family in the Revolutionary Underground. Dohrn's story cuts straight into the contradictions we talk about every week on Hitting Left — the collision of family, politics, violence, and repression, and the long shadow of American radicalism. His book traces what it meant to grow up inside the Weather Underground, navigating idealism, fear, privilege, and the costs of resistance in a country that still can't tell the truth about its own past.

Zayd Ayers Dohrn's mother, Bernardine Dohrn, was a leader of SDS, a student group protesting the Vietnam War. She also led a faction that broke away and became the Weather Underground, advocating armed resistance against the government. His father, Bill Ayers, was also an activist-turned-revolutionary. In a new memoir, Zayd wrestles with questions he had growing up, like if his parents were living underground and on the run from the FBI, why did they have kids? He spoke with Terry Gross.  Also, two-time National Book Award winning writer Jesmyn Ward (‘Salvage the Bones,' ‘Sing, Unburied, Sing') has a new essay collection on grief, motherhood, and survival. It's called ‘On Witness and Respair.' She spoke with Tonya Mosley. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Does political violence ever help a social cause? Zayd Ayers Dohrn, playwright and host of Crooked's "Mother Country Radicals," joins Offline to discuss the complicated legacy of radical activism in America. In his new book, Dangerous, Dirty, Violent, and Young, Zayd dives even deeper into the morally ambiguous decisions made by his parents...two founding members of the notorious Weather Underground. He and Jon contemplate what activist actions lead to mass alienation vs. adoption of ideals, why a generation of Americans gravitated towards political violence in the 1970s...and why it's happening again today.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

"From my very first memories, I knew that the FBI was chasing us," Zayd Ayers Dohrn says. "My parents tried to explain it in terms [like] we were like Robin Hood or we were like the Rebel Alliance in Star Wars. So I knew in the way a kid knows that our lives were precarious." His mother, Bernardine Dohrn, was a leader of the '60s radical student group Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), which opposed the war in Vietnam and racism. Along with his father, Bill Ayers, she helped found the Weather Underground, a group committed to armed resistance against the government. Dohrn spoke with Terry Gross about his radical childhood on the run, visiting his mom in prison, and the questions he needed to ask his parents.

Bridget sits down with Noah Rothman, senior editor at National Review and author of Blood And Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America, to trace the long, suppressed history of radical left-wing political violence in the United States — from the anarchist bombings of the 1920s to the Weather Underground to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Noah argues that this history isn't obscure, it's deliberately buried, and that the same patterns driving today's wave of violence have shown up in 50-year cycles throughout American history. They also get into why 9/11 inadvertently put the brakes on a bombing campaign that might otherwise still be ongoing — and what that tells us about how close to the edge we actually are.Buy Blood And Progress here: https://bit.ly/4eKXuee#LeftWingViolence #PoliticalViolence #walkinswelcome #BridgetPhetasyTopics covered: left-wing political violence, Blood in Progress book, Weather Underground, Charlie Kirk assassination, Luigi Mangione copycat violence, anarchist terrorism, radical left history, revolutionary socialism, media suppression of left-wing violence, 9/11 and domestic terrorism

Harriet Clark comes from a long line of radicals. Her ancestors were gun runners in Minsk. Her grandparents were active members of the Communist Party USA, and the family moved to Moscow for a time, where her grandfather wrote for the Daily Worker. Her mother is Judith Clark, a former member of the Weather Underground and the May 19th Communist Organization, who was given a life sentence for her participation in the Brinks robbery in 1981 that killed three people. (Judith was paroled in 2019.)Harriet Clark's debut novel, The Hill, tells the story of a girl who vows to visit her mother every week in the upstate New York prison where she is being held. In this episode of On the Nose, Arielle Angel speaks with Harriet about her stunning new book, what comes after failure in radical movements, and the heroism of trying to keep families affected by incarceration together.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for editing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Media Mentioned and Further ReadingThe Hill by Harriet Clark“I'm Not Black, I'm Kanye,” Ta-Nehisi Coates, The Atlantic“Photos of the migrant caravan and the Trump military response tell different stories,” Johnny Simon, QuartzJoseph Campbell's Hero's Journey“Judith Clark's Radical Transformation,” Tom Robbins, The New York TimesHouse and Fire by Maria HummelHousekeeping by Marilynne Robinson“To a Student” by Diane Di PrimaTranscript forthcoming.

The Weather Underground, The Baader-Meinhof Group, The Red Brigade, Carlos the Jackal, The Japanese Red Army. The counterculture has always had a dark side; it has not always been peace and love. There have been bad actors, casualties, the needle and the damage done -  and in this episode, we dive into the world of revolutionary and political violence, exploring how radical groups emerged from countercultural movements and evolved into what my guest Jason Burke describes as Revolutionists     Jason is an award-winning British author and journalist, currently serving as the International Security Correspondent for The Guardian. He is widely regarded as one of the preeminent experts on modern radicalisation terrorism, and global security, reporting from hotspots around the world.     His latest book,The Revolutionists: The Story of the Extremists Who Hijacked the 1970s, is a sweeping history of the  period  1968–1979, a decade defined by a global explosion of secular, leftist political violence.      The Revolutionists were the orphans of the 1960s, young people who grew up in the shadow of the 1950s' existential vacuum of consumerism and the 1960s' idealistic overload. When the student protests of 1968 failed to topple the global order, a radicalised minority concluded that the "System" was too resilient for peaceful protest.     It's an incredible story - and connects the counterculture with events taking place in the Middle East right now.   ---   If you'd like to get involved and contribute to this crazy endeavour, join our Patreon HERE   Thank you to everyone who's signed up to support the show —that really does mean a lot.

Breht speaks with veteran organizer, revolutionary strategist, Elder of the movement, and author Eric Mann. Together they discuss Eric's life and work, including his book on George Jackson, the Hard Hat riot against Vietnam protesters, how to organize effectively in the work place, Eric's personal relationship with Howard Zinn, the importance of revolutionary  journalism, combatting chauvinism, and SO much more. Check out Part One of Breht's discussion with Eric HERE Opening clip from Mother Country Radical podcast More Biography of Eric Mann: Eric Mann (born December 4, 1942) is a civil rights, anti-war, labor, and environmental organizer. He has worked with the Congress of Racial Equality, Newark Community Union Project, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), the Black Panther Party, the United Automobile Workers (including eight years on auto assembly lines) and the New Directions Movement. He was also active as a leader of SDS faction the Weathermen, which later became the militant left-wing organization Weather Underground. He was arrested in September 1969 for participation in a direct action against the Harvard Center for International Affairs and sentenced to two years in prison on charges of conspiracy to commit murder after two bullets were fired through a window of the Cambridge police headquarters on November 8, 1969. He was instrumental in the movement that helped to keep a General Motors assembly plant in Van Nuys, California open for ten years. Mann has been credited for helping to shape the environmental justice movement in the U.S. He founded the Labor/Community Strategy Center in Los Angeles, California and has been its director for 25 years. In addition, Mann is founder and co-chair of the Bus Riders Union, which sued the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority for what it called "transit racism", resulting in a precedent-setting civil rights lawsuit, Labor Community Strategy Center et al. v. MTA. Mann is the author of books published by Beacon Press, Harper & Row and the University of California, which include Taking on General Motors; The Seven Components of Transformative Organizing Theory; and Playbook for Progressives: 16 Qualities of the Successful Organizer. He is known for his theory of transformative organizing and leadership of political movements and is acknowledged by many as an veteran organizer on the communist left. ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for December 4, 2025. 0:30 Do you ever stop and think about what America used to be like? A country where political disagreements didn’t come packaged with threats, bankruptcies, mobs, and blacklists. From Reagan’s America to even Bill Clinton’s America, the conversation turns to how radically the tone has shifted under Obama and Biden. That sets the stage for the day’s story: Rep. Ilhan Omar launching a new boycott campaign — “We Ain’t Buying It” — aimed squarely at companies that work with the Trump administration. We unpack her loaded language: businesses must “pay a costly price” and she calls on supporters to use “every leverage” in their “arsenal.” We compare that rhetoric to historical patterns — from the French Revolution to Mao’s Red Guards to the Weather Underground — where phrases like “pay a heavy price” were precursors to coercion, destruction, and political violence. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. More than four years after it happened, the FBI has finally made an arrest in the January 6th Pipe Bomb case. A new report out says there has been widespread fraud in Obamacare Subsidies. Two more Afghani immigrants to the US have been arrested on terrorism charges. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 AT&T just joined the growing list of major corporations ditching their DEI programs — and we aren’t shedding a tear. We break down how deeply AT&T had plunged into the ideology, pushing training that claimed racism was a “uniquely white trait,” a stance that is not only absurd but openly discriminatory. From African ethnic conflicts to Imperial Japan’s belief in racial superiority, we point out the obvious: bigotry has never been exclusive to any one group. 16:00 The American Mamas dive into the big headline of the week: Michael and Susan Dell dropping a jaw-dropping $6.25 billion into Trump’s new children’s savings account program. Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson break down why this move could change the future for millions of kids, why early business education matters, and why generosity like this sparks both inspiration and outrage. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 For the fourth month in a row, housing costs in America are falling — and the reason why has the left fuming. We break down how deporting two million illegal immigrants and ending mass releases at the border is reshaping the housing market. J.D. Vance calls the connection “clear as day,” and the numbers back him up. It’s simple economics, not politics — supply, demand, and what happens when you stop overwhelming the system. Common sense? Absolutely. Controversial? You bet. 25:00 The fatal flaw of socialism isn’t just that it has always failed — it’s that it can never succeed. We break down why “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need” works inside a loving family… but collapses the moment it’s applied to millions of imperfect human beings. Socialism demands angelic selflessness from everyone, all the time. Capitalism? It only requires people not to be outright monsters — a bar most folks can clear most of the time. From human nature to the Pilgrims to New Yorkers honking on the freeway, we dig deep into why socialism always slides into coercion, why capitalism aligns with reality, and why any system that relies on perfect people is doomed. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 We dive into a bombshell claim making waves: an internal FDA letter that critics say proves what they’ve been warning about for years — that young Americans were pushed into COVID shots they never needed, and that the government never wanted anyone questioning it. From vaccine mandates to college campuses, from “follow the science” to full-blown censorship, we walk back through how debate got shut down, how experts were elevated to unquestionable status, and how anyone who raised concerns — parents, doctors, journalists — was labeled a conspiracy theorist. 35:30 There’s finally a bright spot out of North Carolina this week—one that could change the game on violent repeat offenders. After months of shootings, releases, and a justice system that kept turning the same people back onto the streets, something different just happened in Charlotte. An 18-year-old—arrested multiple times for firing into homes—was picked up again. But this time? He didn’t walk free. His bond: $5.3 million. What changed? A brand-new law that just went into effect, born from a tragedy that never should have happened. And for the first time in a long time, it looks like consequences are finally catching up to the people who’ve been terrorizing innocent families. 40:00 And then there’s Mariah Carey—yes, the Christmas queen herself—making headlines again, but not for the song you’ve already heard 500 times this month. Over the summer, she showed up at an event in the U.K. wearing a glitter-bombed, rhinestone jacket that read “Protect the Dolls.” Now? She’s putting that jacket up for auction. And the cause it supports has a very specific mission: pushing more gender ideology into mainstream entertainment. So while everyone else is cueing up her Christmas tracks, she’s using her platform to bankroll something very different. And honestly… that deserves a big “whoa.” 41:30 And finally, a story that’ll restore a little of your faith in humanity. A first-year teacher in Virginia nearly lost her life after choking in front of her class—but three of her first graders jumped into action like seasoned pros. These kids didn’t panic—they became heroes. And their teacher says, “They 100% saved my life.” Now that’s the kind of story we need more of.

November has finally arrived — and the deer woods are alive! In Episode 297, Don Higgins and Terry Peer break down the early-November conditions, the recent cold front, and how rising barometric pressure is lighting up deer movement across the Midwest. Don shares his observations from the first morning of November, where movement exploded after a long lull, and dives deep into the importance of barometric pressure, wind, and dough-to-buck ratios. The duo also discusses how subtle herd management and observation can drastically change rut activity on your property. Later in the episode, Don opens up with one of his most powerful reflections yet — the lesson of “Pull the Trigger.” Inspired by his friend Todd Hewing and his late father, Don connects how seizing opportunity applies both in the woods and in life. Terry follows with his own story about taking risks, faith, and how trusting God led to unexpected blessings. The Higgins Hot Seat and Midwest Land Group's listener questions cover: How to scout and hang a last-minute rut stand Playing the wind for mature bucks Apple tree and food plot strategy E-bike access and ground scent The emotional challenge of shooting bucks you've watched grow Finally, Don and Terry analyze Weather Underground charts to predict when the rut will peak — including what might happen around the legendary November 7th–8th window this year. If you love rut predictions, faith-driven insight, and hard-earned wisdom about both hunting and life — this is one you don't want to miss.

Breht speaks with veteran organizer, revolutionary strategist, and author Eric Mann. In this wide-ranging conversation, Mann reflects on his decades of struggle; from his early work with SNCC and SDS, through his involvement with the Weather Underground and his time as a political prisoner, to his rank-and-file organizing as a UAW autoworker. Along the way, Mann wrestles with the realities of repression and counterinsurgency, the need for disciplined cadre and a Black-led united front against imperialism, and the history of the Marxist Left in the 60's and 70's in the USA as told through his personal experiences. His story is both a living history of the U.S. Left and a revolutionary call for commitment and organization for a new generation of revolutionaries. More Biography of Eric Mann: Eric Mann (born December 4, 1942) is a civil rights, anti-war, labor, and environmental organizer. He has worked with the Congress of Racial Equality, Newark Community Union Project, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), the Black Panther Party, the United Automobile Workers (including eight years on auto assembly lines) and the New Directions Movement. He was also active as a leader of SDS faction the Weathermen, which later became the militant left-wing organization Weather Underground. He was arrested in September 1969 for participation in a direct action against the Harvard Center for International Affairs and sentenced to two years in prison on charges of conspiracy to commit murder after two bullets were fired through a window of the Cambridge police headquarters on November 8, 1969. He was instrumental in the movement that helped to keep a General Motors assembly plant in Van Nuys, California open for ten years. Mann has been credited for helping to shape the environmental justice movement in the U.S. He founded the Labor/Community Strategy Center in Los Angeles, California and has been its director for 25 years. In addition, Mann is founder and co-chair of the Bus Riders Union, which sued the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority for what it called “transit racism”, resulting in a precedent-setting civil rights lawsuit, Labor Community Strategy Center et al. v. MTA. Mann is the author of books published by Beacon Press, Harper & Row and the University of California, which include Taking on General Motors; The Seven Components of Transformative Organizing Theory; and Playbook for Progressives: 16 Qualities of the Successful Organizer. He is known for his theory of transformative organizing and leadership of political movements and is acknowledged by many as an veteran organizer on the communist left. ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover the indictment of James Comey, a national DOJ investigation into George Soros, Pete Hegseth's extraordinary call for all generals to return to Virginia, Trump's warning to Democrats about pushing conservatives too far, and headline updates on tariffs, green energy, AI, and global flashpoints. Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend.   James Comey Indicted: The former FBI director faces charges of false statements and obstruction of justice. Trump pushed prosecutors to act before the statute of limitations expired, insisting Comey's role in Crossfire Hurricane was “a coup” against the elected government. Bryan argued, “James Comey deserves the death penalty… it would be a righteous and correct judgment.”   DOJ Targets Soros's Open Society Foundations: At least seven U.S. attorneys will probe Soros funding networks for alleged terrorism support, arson, fraud, and racketeering. Bryan compares the crackdown to federal efforts in the 1960s and 70s against the Weather Underground.   Pentagon Showdown Next Week: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth summoned every U.S. general and admiral worldwide to a meeting in Virginia as Trump demands a 20 percent cut in four-star officers. Politico reports many senior leaders are unhappy with the rebrand to the Department of War.   Trump Warns Democrats on Violence: After MSNBC and the John Brown Gun Club suggested ICE agents “deserved” recent attacks, Trump warned, “The Left better not get the Right energized because it won't be good for the Left.”   Turning Point Rejects Kimmel's ‘Apology': Spokesman Andrew Kolve said, “What we need is, ‘I'm sorry, I lied, I was wrong, and I won't do it again.' Otherwise… his political agenda is more important than the life of my friend who was just taken from us.”   Dallas Shooter Update: The killer searched “Charlie Kirk shot video” while planning his ICE attack, suggesting a copycat killing. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed he used Democrat-developed tracking apps to stalk ICE agents.   NYC Worker Punished for Helping ICE: A city staffer was retrained after reporting two criminal illegals to ICE, violating sanctuary laws that protect even convicted felons from deportation. Bryan called it “diabolical.” Tariff Cheaters and Whirlpool's Complaint: Appliance makers are under DOJ investigation for undervaluing imports to dodge tariffs, costing U.S. producers.   Green Energy Failures: California's $2.2 billion Ivanpah solar farm is shutting down after killing 6,000 birds annually. Bryan added, “That's wonderful news for the birds.”   AI Revolution Goes Federal: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot is now the U.S. government's official AI system, including for secret agencies, despite studies showing AI is unreliable and prone to lying.   Global Watch for the Weekend: Farmers furious at Argentina selling soybeans to China, European leaders ready to shoot down Russian aircraft, Britain exploring digital IDs, Tony Blair offering to run Gaza, and new medical studies on obesity, eye health, and aging.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: James Comey indictment Crossfire Hurricane, Trump DOJ Lindsey Halligan Erik Seibert, Comey Steele Dossier coup, DOJ Soros Open Society terrorism probe, Pete Hegseth Pentagon generals meeting, Trump warning Democrats violence ICE, John Brown Gun Club Hey Fascist Catch, Turning Point rejects Jimmy Kimmel apology, Dallas ICE shooter Charlie Kirk copycat, Kash Patel ICE tracking apps, NYC sanctuary laws ICE prisons, Whirlpool tariff cheating DOJ, Ivanpah solar farm shutdown bird deaths, Elon Musk Grok chatbot federal contract, Sam Altman AI smarter than humans, Argentina soybeans China, Europe NATO Russian jets, UK digital ID program, Tony Blair Gaza Strip, Greta Thunberg Gaza flotilla hacked ABBA

America doesn't crush its radicals—it deburrs them. Like a machinist running a grinder over sharp metal, the state and culture don't always smash rebellion outright. Instead, they smooth its edges until it no longer cuts. This is how dissent is turned into fashion, slogans into branding, and movements into memories.Think about the radicals of the 1960s. The Black Panthers, the Weather Underground, even SDS—groups that once terrified middle America. Within a generation, the Panthers' leather jackets became retro chic, stripped of their politics. Che Guevara, a guerrilla fighter who dreamed of continental revolution, became a T-shirt. The music of the era—once insurgent—was absorbed into commercials selling sneakers and soda. The system didn't need to execute every radical; it just needed to sand off the sharp edges until what remained could be consumed without risk.That's the pattern. Radicals rarely get to keep their sharpness. Even when the state arrests or kills leaders, the real long-term weapon is deburring—reducing defiance to a flavor. Martin Luther King Jr. was harassed, bugged, and branded a communist while he lived, but in death he was transformed into a harmless dreamer, frozen in a single line from a speech. Malcolm X, once seen as a militant threat, now appears on posters with inspirational quotes stripped of his critiques of capitalism and white supremacy. Their radicalism was dangerous. Their memory is manageable.You can see the deburring at work today. Pride parades, once defiant marches against police raids and legal persecution, are now sponsored by banks and defense contractors. Black Lives Matter, which began with raw street protest, now lives as hashtags, T-shirts at Target, and vague HR initiatives. “Radical” becomes “diverse,” “defiant” becomes “inclusive,” and the sharp edge is lost. The movements remain recognizable as artifacts, but their dangerous potential has been sanded down until they can be mass-marketed.The Dremel doesn't only come from government—it comes from culture itself. Hollywood, advertising, and social media do as much sanding as the police. Every sitcom that takes a radical idea and turns it into a “quirky character,” every corporation that wraps itself in slogans of justice while avoiding structural change, every influencer who sells rebellion as an aesthetic—all of them help to polish difference until it gleams like safe consumer choice.It feels like racism, classism, or hostility when you're on the receiving end. When the edges of your identity or politics are being ground away, the friction is real. But from the hegemon's point of view, it's maintenance. The machinery of pluralism requires deburring. A country that insists it is one people, one culture, one flag cannot tolerate jagged edges forever. So the grinder comes out: some radicals get destroyed, others get smoothed, but very few are allowed to stay sharp.The tragedy is that this process breeds amnesia. Each generation thinks its radicals are unique, but the truth is they're on the same conveyor belt as the ones before them. Yesterday's revolutionaries become today's branding exercises, while today's rebels wait their turn in the machine. And because the edges are always ground down, the culture never really learns from the sharpness. It only digests the softened version, safe enough to consume.So when people ask, “Why doesn't America ever have a true revolution?” the answer isn't just repression. It's deburring. America doesn't need to crush its radicals outright. It just needs to sand them smooth until they're marketable, photogenic, and harmless. The radicals who refuse the machine get destroyed. The ones who survive get turned into logos. Either way, the edge is gone.That's the sound you hear in America—not just protest chants or police sirens, but the endless whir of the Dremel, grinding down difference, rounding off rebellion, polishing away sharpness until it shines.

As AI continues to reshape education, institutions face a growing challenge in ensuring students succeed without compromising engagement or integrity. Today's college students are often juggling jobs, family, and coursework, leading to limited study time and increased dropout risk. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, 40% of full-time undergraduates and 74% of part-time students were employed while enrolled in 2020, highlighting a growing challenge for student success. Most students now work while supporting themselves through school, which often reduces academic performance and increases the risk of leaving school altogether, amplifying the need for tools that promote efficient and connected learning.Can AI help students study smarter, without replacing the need to think deeply or learn independently?This episode of DisruptED, hosted by Darin Francis, features Dr. Perry Samson, Co-founder and CEO of LearningClues.

Alright, capping this shameless plug! Angel statements: These are press statements and direct quotes that Ángel Espinosa-Villegas has provided from inside Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, TX, where she was held from April 1 to April 25, 2025. Ángel is currently in transfer to an undisclosed location, but has not been able to contact loved ones yet. These messages were received by loved ones on the outside throughout the past 3 weeks and she has given explicit permission to publicize these statements. “We dance a lot, draw our hopes and homes on the walls of this place any way we can. We tell stories of home, hold each other past language barriers because we all know all too well what it's like to be torn away from our families, hold onto hope, only for it to be crushed cruelly by these heartless fascist traitors. To remain utterly powerless at the mercy of the abusers of gluttonous power. People are quite literally dragged out, hogtied, by these pirates that speak of protecting democracy yet dehumanize and humiliate us without so much as a look in our eyes before ripping us apart from our newfound friends, and, more distantly, our families we have here. They rob us of the little money we have and have no paths of recovery. They tell us clean water is a privilege and not a right. That speaking to our families is a privilege. That seeing the sun is a privilege. That if we get too loud of this constant mistreatment, then we should get ready to eat mace.” “Most people here don't have the means to speak out against these human rights' violations we face every day. But I will take any and every chance to fight, to expose the way they treat us that these human traitors have normalized.” “This was supposed to never happen again. But here it is again. We need everyone demanding our freedom, to expose all the vultures robbing these vulnerable people of everything from money to merely see our families and small children. We're not even allowed to say goodbye, to hug our children goodbye. What madness is this? How is this STILL happening to us, I ask myself when I wake up. Is this country for the free? For those yearning for a safe, happy life? If this country and its people care about freedom and safety, then people should refuse to let this government and administration work a second longer until they free us ALL.” “A lot of women here are fighting their cases because they've been following protocol to obtain legal papers or asylum or were just rounded up randomly from racial profiling. One woman here lost her purse with all her money on a train and went to church to seek help. The church called ICE on her because she couldn't speak English! Another woman here was late to her job and her boss called ICE on her. Few of us have criminal records. Most were just following advice from their lawyers and continuing their appointments with ICE and USCIS to get their visa or temporary protected status or whatever it was they were doing. But because of Trump's administration they're all rounded up by ICE and deported.” “I'm feeling alright, mostly numb since being locked up is so abusive and heart wrenching. Here... It's a rollercoaster. I witness, every single day, cries of agony and anger and despair. I see people hogtied and dragged out. People being yelled at to gather their things and go into the unknown, being threatened with PREA for hugging as we say our goodbyes and well wishes. This place is much worse than prison in many ways. I hear guttural wails and sobs so many times a day. It's like being at a perpetual funeral; laying to rest this person's life, that one's dreams, the other's hope. Knowing they'll be inevitably harmed, kidnapped, sometimes disappeared or even killed when they go and we can do absolutely nothing.” “We're just hostages. Being one for so long now... I'm so hollow on the inside. I haven't dropped any tears the last year and a half. I just can't. Not even when I was sentenced. I don't know how I'll even begin to heal, but I sure as fuck ain't ever gonna stop fighting. My hope and ambition to fight... I've just been refueling his entire time being down.” “Fighting brings me solace. Helping others brings me solace, some meaningfulness, a melting of stone in my petrified heart. I spend most of my time going around and helping people as much as I can; working the tablets, giving phone calls, cooking food, doing little chores and tasks for the older, sick, or disabled ladies.“ With love & solidarity, Free All Dykes . ... . ..

Full interview only available on patreon.com/michaeldeconBill Ayers is an American education theorist and activist. He is most widely known for being a co-founder and leader of the Weather Underground, a radical left-wing organization active during the 1960s and 1970s. The group opposed the Vietnam War and engaged in controversial activities, including bombings of government buildings. Ayers was a fugitive for a time but eventually turned himself in, though many charges against him were dismissed due to prosecutorial misconduct.Later, Ayers became a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, focusing on education reform and social justice. His academic work emphasizes progressive teaching practices and the role of education in empowering marginalized communities. He authored several books, including Fugitive Days: A Memoir, which details his experiences with the Weather Underground. Ayers remains a polarizing figure due to his past activism and outspoken views.

Lawyer Chesa Boudin's professional life has been nearly as tumultuous as his upbringing. He was raised by family friends because his parents—members of the Weather Underground—were incarcerated for crimes committed when he was just 14 months old. Boudin eventually became a progressive San Francisco district attorney representing criminal justice reform. However, he was recalled a few years later. These are his songs.

One of the greatest songwriters of the 60's, Bob Dylan had released seven solo albums between 1962 and 1966.  Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits compiles many of the singles from this period along with some of the songs Dylan wrote for other musicians.  The compilation went to number 10 on the Billboard 200 chart, number 3 on the UK album chart, and has been certified five times platinum by the RIAA.In the summer of 1966, Dylan crashed his motorcycle near his home, and took off time to recover.  The record company was anxious to follow up Dylan's successful "Blonde on Blonde" album, but had no new recordings available, and no clarity on how long Dylan would be out of the studio.  Thus the decision to release a Greatest Hits album was an easy one for them.  Born Robert Allen Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota, the stage name comes from the poet Dylan Thomas.  Bob Dylan rose out of the Beatnik coffee houses, and he took inspiration from a wide variety of sources including Woodie Guthrie, Hank Williams, and blues artists like Robert Johnson.  He has the unusual distinction of having won a Nobel Prize in Literature. Wayne takes us through this iconic folk rock compilation album, and friend of the show Greg Lyon joins us in Bruce's absence for this week's podcast. Positively 4th StreetThis non-album single was released in 1965 between the "Highway 61 Revisited" album and the "Blonde on Blonde" album, and reached the top 10 on charts in both the US and the UK.  The lyrics are laden with bitterness, as the singer laments the lack of compassion in a person who "has a lot of nerve to say you are my friend."  An inspiration for this song could have been the reaction Dylan received from folk artists and fans when he "went electric."Blowin' in the WindWhile Dylan released this as a single in 1963, the most successful version of this song was the cover by Peter, Paul and Mary in the same year.  This well-known protest song asks a number of questions in its lyrics, most focused on issues of peace and freedom.  Whether an answer "blowin' in the wind" is obvious or difficult to grasp is left deliberately ambiguous.  The Times They Are a-Changin'This is the title track to Dylan's 1964 album.  It is iconic today as a commentary on society in general and 1960's society in particular.  The number of groups that have covered this song is vast, including such diverse names as Joan Baez, the Beach Boys, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, and Burl Ives.Subterranean Homesick BluesA number of things make this song famous, from the early video style to the rapid lyric pace, to the inspiration for the name of the domestic terrorist group of the 70's, the Weather Underground ("you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows").  Dylan claims inspiration from Chuck Berry and the scat songs of the 1940's in the creation of this track. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Sitting There Standing by the Chocolate Watchband (from the motion picture "Riot on the Sunset Strip")This counterculture movie came out during this time, sporting a soundtrack that may be better than the film itself. STAFF PICKS:Detroit City by Tom JonesRob starts the staff picks with a slow blues number originally written by Mel Tillis.  Jones cover of this country song originally released by Bobby Bare is about being lonely and homesick on the road.  Jones' version went to number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100.  I'll Be Doggone by Marvin GayeLynch brings us an upbeat tune which is the first song on which he collaborated with Smokey Robinson.  The lyrics tell the singer's girlfriend that if she cheats on him he'll be (dog)gone.  This was a big time for the Motown sound.Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis PresleySpecial guest Greg's staff pick is an iconic ballad by the King.  Recorded for the movie "Blue Hawaii" in 1961, it was on the charts in 1962, but has been popular ever since.  Elvis was a great inspiration for Greg's life and musicianship.Action Woman by the LitterWayne features an early garage band with a fuzzy feel.  It is a good early example of psychedelic music, and chronicles a man's search for a woman of action - a more active girlfriend. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Music to Watch Girls By by the Bob Crewe GenerationThis is a great song title with which to finish off the podcast - or ride in an elevator!  Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

We're joined by comedian and writer Charlie Demers to discuss a novel that the famous crime writer Donald Westlake finished in the early '80s but which wasn't published until after his death. At the time, he apparently worried that the plot--about a famous comedian kidnapped by a Weather Underground-style group of revolutionaries--was too similar to the Martin Scoresese movie The King of Comedy. We talk about the book's take on politics and comedy, which may have some echoes in our current cultural moment. And also Charlie's relationship to these characters, since he's a stand-up comedian and someone who's quite active in progressive politics. Plus: beatniks, Bob Hope, the fragmentation of popular culture, and our pitch for a show about a detective with ADHD.

  In this, the World's Longest Episode, we mock Nouvelle Vague, ridicule "Will and Harper," lament the Weather Underground's 1981 Brink's robbery, condemn Adderall, prove God exists, denounce surrogacy, question machete fights, laugh at AOC, bomb Yahya Sinwar, praise Laura Loomer, shit on NASA, end Kamala's campaign, expose her clueless fans, defend Farrakhan, thank Lord Jamar, eviscerate Wajahat Ali, try to revive Jimmy Carter, question Jim Gaffigan, big up Scottish violence, enjoy HR logic, and force Tim Pool to quit.

Ron Jacobs is a author of various works dealing with the counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s, he also writes for counterpunch magazine about various areas of politics. Ron has been on the show a few times to discuss The Weather Underground but through our conversations we have never looked at some of the rhetoric at the beginning to the end of the movement and how it shifted from a stance that's reasonable to one that is extremist. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/out-of-the-blank/support

By their own estimates, 25 million Americans who couldn't be "re-educated" would need to be exterminated. Don't be surprised if Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama plan on doing the same exact thing.

Last year, at colleges across America, students etched themselves into history, or infamy, with the most dramatic campus protests in a generation. In preparation for the fall semester, some major universities—from NYU to UCLA—have implemented new rules and decided to enforce old ones to protect Jewish students from activists who had declared sections of campus no-go zones for Zionists. Universities that turn a blind eye to the Tentifada phenomenon now risk violating federal statute.  Nonetheless, the chaos appears to be returning. At Temple University, protesters marched in solidarity with Palestinian “resistance against their colonizers.” Last week, a man attacked a group of Jewish students with a glass bottle on the University of Pittsburgh campus outside the school's “Cathedral of Learning.” Meanwhile at the University of Michigan, four agitators were arrested during a “die-in.” So clearly the danger is not yet over entirely for campuses, even though some of the steam may be leaving the movement. The Democratic National Convention, for example, was supposed to be the exclamation mark of rage, but the protests barely registered as a tussle.  But history teaches us that it takes only a few student true believers to make quite a mess once they decide that boycotts and sit-ins aren't making a difference.  To understand this moment and the risk these student protesters pose, Free Press columnist Eli Lake looks at America's history with Ivy League domestic terrorists. More than 50 years ago, campus unrest also spilled into the streets and moved off the grid as a small and lethal group of radicals called the Weather Underground took the plunge from protest to resistance. But the Weather Underground railed against the establishment. Today's campus protesters are supported by it. Call them. . . the Weather Overground.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, if Democrat groups like Antifa, Black Lives Matter, or Weather Underground try to overthrow the government, even violently, they are called peaceful protesters and the DOJ comes to their defense. If you're part of the Proud Boys or any pro-Trump group, you get the book thrown at you by Democrat prosecutors and face decades in prison. It is amazing how violent Marxists are treated by the media and federal prosecutors, especially when they attack Federal buildings with Molotov cocktails and attack the White House. Democrat Marxists are ruining the country with their ideology, turning beautiful cities into third world disasters and destroying our culture. Also, Vivek Ramaswamy is probably the best public speaker running for President in 2024, but with the thinnest credentials. Israel does stand on its own two feet, and not surviving on American aid which he claims. Israel is a very important ally in a very dangerous part of the world, and a counterweight to dangerous nations like Iran. We cannot embrace a Bernie Sanders-type foreign policy and expect to survive, because our enemies will choke us economically and force us into more wars. Learn more about your ad choices.
