What role did education play in the US civil rights movement? What did it look like for anti-racist organizers to build radical schooling and organizing spaces that could evade the harsh surveillance lights of white supremacy and Jim Crow? What lessons can we learn from them today?Our March 2025 episode features journalist Elaine Weiss, who speaks about her new book, Spell Freedom: The Underground Schools That Built the Civil Rights Movement, published by Simon and Schuster this month.Spell Freedom traces the educational program that was the underpinning of the civil rights movement and voter registration drives. The Citizenship Schools originated from workshops in the summer of 1954 at the Highlander Center, a labor and social justice training center, located on a mountain in Monteagle, TN, just after the Brown vs. Board of Education decision. The heart of the book is Elaine's vivid retelling the stories of the four main leaders of the citizenship school movement, Septima Clark, Bernice Robinson, Esau Jenkins, and one of the founders of the Highlander Center, Myles Horton. She traces the path from this mountain center to Charleston and the sea islands of South Carolina, all framed by the segregated and racist South and the leaders who rose up to organize and resist Jim Crow and create a new South. As is often said in southern movement building (from the World Social Forum in 2006), “another South is possible; another South is necessary,” and Spell Freedom connects the histories and voices of the movements that continue to be necessary today.Episode Credits:Co-hosts and co-producers: Lucia Hulsether and Tina PippinEditing and Production Manager: Aliyah HarrisIntro Music: Lance Haugen and the Flying PenguinsOutro Music: "Plato's Republic" by Akrasis

Series: Labor Day Special Episode 2   Episode Description: “If we were smart as a country, we would look at all of these immigrants that are new citizens of the United States, and look at all of these food production methods and skills that they bring. We would have better food security by including the immigrant farmers in the decision-making on how food production is going to be developed for the future is hitting us really hard with climate change.” —Rosalinda Guillen   Farming is the backbone of our communities, yet too often, the hard-working men and women who toil in the fields are overlooked and undervalued.    But a growing movement is changing that narrative, empowering farmers to take the reins and shape a more sustainable, equitable food system. Community to Community (C2C), founded by Rosalinda Guillen, is a pioneering organization that empowers farm workers and immigrant communities to lead the charge in building a more sustainable, equitable, and community-driven food system.   In this episode, Justine and Rosalinda discuss the challenges and barriers in organizing farm workers, the integration of immigrant farmers' practices, the vision for community farms and food security, the role of regenerative agriculture in addressing climate change, and Rosalinda's hopes for the future of empowering farmers and transforming the food system. Connect with Rosalinda:  Rosalinda Guillen (she/hers) is the founder of Community to Community and a lead strategist and visionary within the non-hierarchical ecofeminist leadership of C2C. Her perspective is fundamentally influenced by her introduction to the multi-racial, working-class community organizing model of the Rainbow Coalition, the Cesar Chavez house meeting model, The World Social Forum, the Landless Workers Movement (MST) of Brazil and growing up a farmworker in La Conner, WA. Rosalinda has organized farmworkers in WA State and the strawberry fields of Salinas CA. She has represented farmworkers in the Legislatures of California and Washington State and in ongoing policy and Movement dialogues on immigration issues, climate change, labor rights, trade agreements, ecofeminism, and strengthening the food sovereignty movement towards a Solidarity Economy.    Website Facebook Instagram   Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram  LinkedIn YouTube Episode Highlights: 01:30 What is C2C?  09:18 Learning How to Organize a Community 11:54 Creating a New Narrative 18:09 Getting Into Consensus  21:49 Agricultural Lessons From Immigrant Farmers 26:50 The Answer is in Collaboration 30:45 The Role of Regenerative Agriculture

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=7408AVVENIRE PUBBLICIZZA IL 5 PER MILLE A FAVORE DELL'ARCI di Mauro FaverzaniDi nuovo. È successo di nuovo. Non a caso, non per una svista, né per un errore. Bensì deliberatamente, consapevolmente, pervicacemente. Il quotidiano della Cei, Avvenire, che ama definirsi genericamente «di ispirazione cattolica», quasi la sua non fosse sequela, apostolato, testimonianza, missione, bensì un tenue sentimento, un timido stato d'animo, un'intuizione senza impegno, dallo scorso 3 maggio ha ripreso a pubblicare in prima pagina, come manchette, accanto alla testata, a destra ed a sinistra, quindi con la massima evidenza possibile, la pubblicità del 5 per mille a favore dell'Arci.Era già capitato l'anno scorso e già qui, con un articolo, evidenziammo l'anomalia: con tutte le associazioni e le realtà cattoliche benemerite, cui invitare i lettori a destinare il 5 per mille, sponsorizzare proprio l'Arci ha dell'incredibile. E proprio in quell'articolo ne sintetizzammo i motivi, ripercorrendo la storia di quest'organizzazione impregnata ancora oggi di Sinistra col pugno chiuso, di immigrazionismo spinto, di ideologia Lgbtqa+, di genderismo fatto di schwa e asterischi per Statuto e poi ancora di aborto, di suicidio assistito, di eutanasia, stracciando così pagine e pagine di Catechismo della Chiesa cattolica, infischiandosene della sua Dottrina con una foga che non fa certo rima con "accoglienza" dei valori altrui, con "ascolto" di chi solo la pensi diversamente, con un autentico "rispetto" di tutte le posizioni.L'Arci ne ha per tutti coloro che non cantino col (suo) coro: sul suo sito, bolla senza mezzi termini e senza appello il governo Meloni d'esser «a trazione post-fascista», «pericoloso per la nostra Costituzione e per la nostra democrazia», si scaglia contro il decreto «anti-rave», monopolizza il 25 aprile, promuove la «Giornata internazionale della visibilità transgender» con tanto di «Carriera Alias» nelle scuole e via elencando.L'ARCIGAYDel passato l'Arci non rinnega nulla, anzi: anche nell'ultima redazione dello Statuto, approvata al XVIII Congresso nazionale del dicembre 2022, ribadisce di rappresentare «la continuità storica e politica» dell'«Associazione Ricreativa Culturale Italiana delle origini, fondata a Firenze il 26 maggio 1957», quella che affondava le proprie radici nel Pci, nel Psi e nella Cgil, come evidenziato da Vincenzo Santangelo, ricercatore presso l'Istituto piemontese per la storia della Resistenza e della società contemporanea, nel suo libro Le Muse del popolo.Nell'alveo dell'Arci sorse il 9 dicembre 1980 l'Arcigay, voluto da un sacerdote omosessuale, un teologo della liberazione sospeso a divinis, don Marco Bisceglia (riammesso nella Chiesa solo poco prima di morire, malato di Aids, dopo la supplica da lui inviata alla Congregazione per la Dottrina della Fede, supplica in cui si pentì di quelli che chiamò «i miei errori e traviamenti»). Con lui collaborò a quest'avventura anche un allora giovane obiettore di coscienza in servizio civile, Nicola Vendola detto Nichi, che poi divenne suo convivente. Con la sua adesione al World Social Forum, l'Arci ha fatto sue le bandiere dell'antagonismo e della «globalizzazione alternativa» terzomondista, ribadendo la propria natura «antiliberista» ed «antimperialista».Insomma, ce n'è abbastanza per indurre chi si dichiari cattolico a prender le distanze da posizioni tanto estremizzate e tanto lontane dal proprio credo. Anche quando si tratti di contratti pubblicitari, specie quando i messaggi contrastino con i propri ideali (ammesso che contrastino davvero)...Perché a Vespasiano, che sentenzia «pecunia non olet» («il denaro non puzza»), risponde Orazio, che argomenta «Est modus in rebus» («v'è una misura nelle cose») ed aggiunge: «Sunt certi denique fines, Quos ultra citraque nequit consistere rectum» («Vi sono determinati confini, al di là e al di qua dei quali non può esservi ciò ch'è giusto»). Allora, perché insistere, un anno dopo, riproponendo la medesima pubblicità a scapito delle realtà cattoliche, che più e meglio l'avrebbero meritata? Allora è un vizio, verrebbe da commentare...Esattamente. Come conferma il Catechismo.AVERSIO A DEO, CONVERSIO AD CREATURASSecondo San Tommaso d'Aquino, infatti, il peccato è «aversio a Deo» ovvero allontanamento cosciente e volontario da Dio, da Colui che infonde l'essere e la vita, aderendo viceversa alle creature, al mondo («conversio ad creaturas»). Coincide con quanto recepito nel Catechismo della Chiesa cattolica, che, al n. 1849, definisce il «peccato» come «una mancanza contro la ragione, la verità, la retta coscienza; è una trasgressione in ordine all'amore vero, verso Dio e verso il prossimo». Richiamando Sant'Agostino - e lo stesso San Tommaso, non a caso citato - bolla il peccato come «una parola, un atto o un desiderio contrari alla Legge eterna».Ora, promuovere pubblicamente chi sostenga aborto, eutanasia e tutto quanto sopra richiamato allontana indubbiamente da Dio sé stessi ed, ahimè, anche il prossimo, essendo manifestamente contrario alla Legge eterna.Il peccato inizia come seduzione e, specie quando ripetuto, diviene schiavitù. Come scrive ancora il Catechismo al n. 1876, «la ripetizione dei peccati, anche veniali, genera i vizi». Ed ecco, dunque, per quale motivo non appaia né sbagliato, né esagerato ritenere un «vizio» la promozione di ideologie contrarie alla fede, alimentando la confusione tra credenti e non. Nelle sue parole di commiato, Marco Tarquinio, che ha recentemente lasciato la direzione di Avvenire al collega Marco Girardo, ha scritto d'aver voluto «offrire a tutti un'informazione sempre limpida e libera, ancorata ai grandi valori cristiani e civili del nostro umanesimo». Certamente la scelta degli inserzionisti non è stata oculata, né coerente: lascia anzi una brutta eredità ed una pesante ipoteca sulla linea editoriale del giornale della Cei, linea che sarebbe bene a questo punto chiarire: infatti, «nessun servo può servire a due padroni: o odierà l'uno e amerà l'altro oppure si affezionerà all'uno e disprezzerà l'altro. Non potete servire a Dio e a mammona» (Lc 16, 13).

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=7080AVVENIRE RECLAMIZZA L'ARCI IN PRIMA PAGINA di Mauro FaverzaniA dir poco stupisce la manchette, che da alcuni giorni campeggia alla destra ed alla sinistra della testata del quotidiano Avvenire, il giornale della Conferenza episcopale italiana: reclamizza l'Arci ed il suo 5×1000. Non il 5×1000, dunque, della Caritas o di qualsiasi altra sigla o realtà cattolica, bensì quello di un'organizzazione dichiaratamente di Sinistra, fin dalle origini. La stessa organizzazione, che, sul proprio sito, ribadisce, tra l'altro, non solo immigrazionismo spinto ed inclusione indiscriminata, bensì anche il suo sostegno a suicidio assistito ed eutanasia, nonché all'ideologia Lgbt. L'Arci include quella per il «fine vita» tra le «battaglie di diritto» e ritiene urgente «restituire dignità alla morte», richiamando «a responsabilità la politica rispetto ad un'azione legislativa a cui a lungo si è sottratta», ancorandosi «al principio di laicità dello Stato», che «sgombri il campo da derive oscurantiste o da facili strumentalizzazioni». Una presa di posizione in aperta contrapposizione al Catechismo della Chiesa Cattolica, che viceversa al n. 2277 definisce con chiarezza l'eutanasia «moralmente inaccettabile» e boccia anche qualsiasi «azione oppure omissione, che, da sé o intenzionalmente», provochi «la morte allo scopo di porre fine al dolore», essendo ciò «gravemente» contrario «alla dignità della persona umana e al rispetto del Dio vivente, suo Creatore. L'errore di giudizio, nel quale si può essere incorsi in buona fede, non muta la natura di quest'atto omicida, sempre da condannare e da escludere».COSA HANNO DI CATTOLICO LE BATTAGLIE DELL'ARCI?Non di meno totalmente al di fuori dall'orbita cattolica si pone anche l'altra campagna lanciata dall'Arci nazionale, campagna dal titolo «Sii ciò che sei, per un mondo gender inclusive» e che ha coinvolto già nel 2020 lo stesso sistema di adesione: sulle tessere è stata data la possibilità di «apporre un'identità alias. I nuov* soc* potranno infatti scegliere, in alternativa a nome e cognome, l'indicazione del codice fiscale sulla loro tessera. Inoltre, potranno rendere facoltativa l'indicazione del loro genere sulla domanda di iscrizione». Non a caso l'Arci si vanta di aver sollecitato «più volte il Parlamento ad approvare al più presto la proposta di legge contro l'omobitransfobia», in una parola il famigerato ddl Zan, che si scontra frontalmente con il Catechismo della Chiesa Cattolica al n. 2357, dove, «appoggiandosi sulla Sacra Scrittura», si designano le «relazioni omosessuali come gravi depravazioni» e «gli atti di omosessualità» come «intrinsecamente disordinati», nonché «contrari alla legge naturale», ciò per cui «in nessun caso possono essere approvati». Figuriamoci promossi, consigliati ed incentivati!Allora esiste un corto circuito tra la Dottrina cattolica e le convinzioni di organizzazioni quali l'Arci, corto circuito che non solo rende improponibile, bensì anche irricevibile la sua pubblicità su di un organo di stampa, che si voglia «di ispirazione cattolica» come Avvenire. Ciò, tenendo conto del presente, ma tenendo conto anche della storia dell'Arci: l'Associazione Ricreativa e Culturale Italiana (questo, per esteso, il significato attuale dell'acronimo Arci) nacque nel 1957 nell'alveo della Sinistra comunista. Vincenzo Santangelo, ricercatore presso l'Istituto piemontese per la storia della Resistenza e della società contemporanea, nel suo libro Le Muse del popolo, ne precisa le componenti politiche («il Pci, il Psi, la Cgil»), nonché la «vigorosa contrapposizione nei confronti di tutti quegli organismi assimilabili allo Stato o alle grandi imprese», compresi i Dopolavoro ed i Cral aziendali. Una forza, dunque, dichiaratamente antisistema ed anticapitalista. Di quella storia, l'Arci di oggi non rinnega alcunché, anzi è vero l'opposto: lo Statuto, approvato il 14 giugno 2014, precisa già nella premessa come essa rappresenti e voglia rappresentare «la continuità storica e politica con l'Arci delle origini fondata a Firenze il 26 maggio 1957».L'ARCIGAY VOLUTA DA UN SACERDOTE OMOSESSUALEIl 9 dicembre 1980, nel suo alveo, si costituì l'Arcigay. Fu voluta da un sacerdote omosessuale, un teologo della liberazione sospeso a divinis, don Marco Bisceglia (riammesso nella Chiesa solo poco prima di morire, malato di Aids, dopo la supplica da lui inviata alla Congregazione per la Dottrina della Fede, supplica in cui si pentì di quelli che chiamò «i miei errori e traviamenti»). Con lui collaborò a quest'avventura anche un allora giovane obiettore di coscienza in servizio civile presso l'Arci, Nicola Vendola detto Nichi, che poi divenne suo convivente, già presidente di Sinistra Ecologia Libertà dal 2010 al 2016. Non a caso, l'Arci, ha promosso, tra le altre, anche la campagna Giàfamiglia, che, a dispetto del nome, puntava al riconoscimento delle "nozze" gay.Con la sua adesione al World Social Forum, l'Arci ha sostenuto, inoltre, l'antagonismo e la «globalizzazione alternativa» terzomondista, ribadendo la sua natura «antiliberista» ed «antimperialista», categorie che evidentemente si cerca di far sembrare obsolete più di quanto in realtà, per taluni, non siano.Evidente l'incompatibilità tra la Dottrina cattolica e le ideologie, di cui l'Arci si è fatta portavoce dalla fondazione ad oggi. Proprio per questo fa quanto meno specie che il giornale della Cei, Avvenire, proponga la pubblicità dell'Arci, oltre tutto in bella evidenza in prima pagina, accanto alla testata. Un "idillio" tutt'altro che estemporaneo, dato che la stessa Arci, sul proprio sito ufficiale, rimanda addirittura, con tanto di link, ad un articolo pubblicato sul quotidiano Avvenire lo scorso 14 luglio a proposito delle comunità energetiche. Ciò non basta per rendere organica e strutturale l'"intesa" tra il quotidiano e la sigla dichiaratamente di Sinistra, certo, ma è nota l'espressione di Agatha Christie: «Un indizio è un indizio, due indizi sono una coincidenza, ma tre indizi fanno una prova». Ed è un fatto che le posizioni assunte dal giornale dei Vescovi siano state più volte - e su temi alquanto delicati - opinabili e contestate, su basi solide e concrete, da esponenti e sensibilità significative del mondo cattolico.Nota di BastaBugie: Andrea Zambrano nell'articolo seguente dal titolo "Famiglie normali: Avvenire strizza l'occhio ai conviventi" racconta che all'incontro delle famiglie col Papa che c'è stato un mese fa c'è anche una testimonianza di una coppia di conviventi che dopo tre figli convolerà a nozze. Avvenire esulta e parte con la normalizzazione della convivenza lasciando intendere che è solo un problema di accoglienza della Chiesa.Ecco l'articolo completo pubblicato su La Nuova Bussola Quotidiana il 25 giugno 2022:Qualcuno spieghi a Luciano Moia e ai redattori di Avvenire la differenza che c'è tra una cosa normale e una cosa comune, perché non sono sinonimi. Presentare la convivenza di una coppia con figli come una nuova normalità è un'operazione piuttosto scorretta. Limitarsi invece a fotografare una realtà che è ormai comune, come quella di chi decide di non sposarsi, è tutt'altra cosa.L'incontro delle famiglie con il Papa ha visto protagoniste famiglie come testimoni di una vita cristiana donata, c'erano anche - commossi e belli come chi sa di essere fronte alla santità - i genitori di Chiara Corbella, che hanno presentato a Papa Francesco la figura di sposa e di madre della Serva di Dio che morì rinunciando alle cure, per non sottoporre il figlio in grembo alle ricadute di una terapia invasiva per lui. Ma nel parterre delle coppie presentate, figurava anche una coppia di conviventi che tra pochi mesi convolerà a nozze.Per carità, nulla da disquisire sulla Grazia che fa capolino nel percorso tortuoso e difficile che può portare un uomo e una donna a scegliere la strada del matrimonio dopo tre figli e molti anni di convivenza, ma l'approccio di Avvenire è ormai quello di chi vuole stupire presentando normali certe situazioni di irregolarità per far passare poi sotto traccia un concetto preciso.Il concetto che passa è che la convivenza, in fondo, sia una diversa normalità, come riporta il titolo dell'articolo, con quelle virgolette messe lì proprio per strizzare l'occhio al lettore: Accoglienza, tradimenti e perdono. Il festival delle coppie "normali". In fondo, il senso di tutto l'articolo è quello che non esistano famiglie esemplari o famiglie modello perché "nessuno lo è".Invece è il modello che ci fa seguaci di un progetto di vita che ci affascina. Se non ci sono modelli o esempi, per quale motivo si mette su famiglia con un matrimonio che si spera solido e fecondo? Tanto vale continuare a convivere. Chiara Corbella è un modello e dirlo, soprattutto in un incontro per le famiglie, non è affatto un peccato. Anzi, forse questi incontri hanno senso se si indicano dei modelli, di cui tutti abbiamo bisogno, i conviventi per convertirsi e gli sposati per confermarsi. Ma di questo è tabù parlare perché oggi va di moda la liquidità anche degli affetti quindi nessuno è modello.Può capitare quindi che, essendo nessuno un modello, si prenda anche la testimonianza di una coppia che famiglia non è, ma venga "elevata" a famiglia in pectore in virtù di una promessa che però è futura.Il loro racconto, su cui il quotidiano dei vescovi si dilunga parecchio rispetto al resto delle altre storie, è rivelatore di un cammino, ma anche di un reclamo, di quelli che piacciono tanto a Moia.

In From the Tricontinental to the Global South: Race, Radicalism, and Transnational Solidarity (Duke UP, 2018), Anne Garland Mahler traces the history and intellectual legacy of the understudied global justice movement called the Tricontinental—an alliance of liberation struggles from eighty-two countries, founded in Havana in 1966. Focusing on racial violence and inequality, the Tricontinental's critique of global capitalist exploitation has influenced historical radical thought, contemporary social movements such as the World Social Forum and Black Lives Matter, and a Global South political imaginary. The movement's discourse, which circulated in four languages, also found its way into radical artistic practices, like Cuban revolutionary film and Nuyorican literature. While recent social movements have revived Tricontinentalism's ideologies and aesthetics, they have largely abandoned its roots in black internationalism and its contribution to a global struggle for racial justice. In response to this fractured appropriation of Tricontinentalism, Mahler ultimately argues that a renewed engagement with black internationalist thought could be vital to the future of transnational political resistance.

The two met whilst campaigning in the late 90s during the huge protests against the World Bank and the IMF and have been involved in the fight against inequality ever since. Njoki is the pan-Africa coordinator of the Fight Inequality Alliance and leads the Daughters of Mumbi in Kenya who fight for women’s’ land rights. Growing up, together with her mother she worked closely with Wangari Maathai, the Nobel Prize winning environmentalist, helping her fight back against the oppression of the Kenyan government. Together with Soren she was one of the leaders of the Fifty Years is Enough campaign to abolish the World Bank and the IMFSoren is the Head of Policy at Action Aid. Together with Njoki, he was among the pioneers of the World Social Forum, held to challenge Davos. He was a key player in the 50 Years is Enough campaign. They give us a feel for the huge protests against the World Bank and the IMF in 1999-2001 and the hard work that went into building such a successful global coalition- bringing together church groups, unions, environmentalists and anarchists. The reflect on the life of activists in Kenya under the oppressive regime of President Moi.

Do I stay or do I go? After the election of Trump in 2016, there were a lot of memes and stories going around social media about why Americans should become Canadians.  Some of  that was real, and some of it was the Canadian tendency to pat ourselves on the back when we compare ourselves to the US. Regardless, many of us have friends who asked the same thing, so we know  there were some Americans who live in Canada who breathed a sigh of relief that they were up here.  But, attachment and sentiment for one's country is not a straightforward thing. Whether to stay or go is a question that some progressive Americans have asked themselves since November 8, 2016, and they continue to ask it. “Are you going to stay or go back home?” is a question rabble podcast exec producer Victoria Fenner asked Sophia Reuss even before the election happened.  Victoria met Sophia at the World Social Forum when it was held Montreal in August of that year, just a few months before the election. An American who grew up in Washington, DC, Sophia had just finished up as a rabble intern after graduating from McGill.  She was volunteering to help produce ‘Ears on the Earth‘, a daily rabble podcast from the Forum.  You can hear one of Sophia's stories here. At the time of the World Social Forum, not many people were seriously considering the possibility that Trump could win. And then, the unthinkable happened.  Sophia could have stayed in Canada, but ultimately, she decided that she needed to be back home. She moved back to the US last year. She currently lives in Brooklyn, and works at the Prisoner Reentry Institute, an organization at the City University of New York. She also is continuing her work with rabble as an assistant editor. Today on rabble radio, Sophia shares her thoughts about why she decided to go back home. Like this podcast? rabble is reader/listener supported journalism.

On this episode, Laura Chandler dives into the Sacred Stream archives for a 2015 interview with homeopath Lori Nairne, who died unexpectedly this past August. In this talk, Lori explains how homeopathy works and focuses on the many uses of the popular remedy, Arnica. Also on this episode is an excerpt from a homeopathy class Lori taught at the Sacred Stream in which Lori looks at remedies for anxiety. And Isa Gucciardi stops by the studio to talk a little about Lori and some of what is coming up at the Sacred Stream Center in 2018. Lori Nairne was a homeopath, emergency room nurse, social justice activist, and adjunct instructor at the Sacred Stream. Lori’s work as a teacher and homeopath helped many people. She empowered them to be active participants in their own healing and not just follow the western medical model without question. She also helped many people with her over 40 years of work as a social justice activist. Among the many projects she helped found or participated in are Legal Action for Women, PROStitutes Collective, the Haiti Action Committee, Wages for Housework Campaign, Queer Strike, and Global Women’s Strike. She was also part of delegations to the 1977 National Women’s Conference in Houston, the UN Decade for Women in Nairobi in 1985, and Beijing in 1995, and the World Social Forum in Caracas in 2006. This episode’s featured artist is The Allure and their debut album, Kiss. Laura Chandler teamed with producer and composer Walter Liskiewicz (Waldino) to create this chill jazz breakthrough record.

What a year it was. Coming off of the maddening, disappointing and very scary U.S. election, it's too easy to look back and wish that we could have just fast forwarded from December 31, 2015 right to January 1, 2017. But that's not the whole story. In many ways it was also a really good year. Admittedly, we have to work a little harder to lift our spirits in this holiday season than in other years. But we know that rabble listeners and readers know that these things happen in cycles. Better days are ahead. Lots of work for us to do in the new year to help restore this planet to health and happiness. But for now, take a break and have a listen to some of our faves. 1.) Ears on the Earth – an excerpt from one of five daily programs we did from the World Social Forum. The excerpt you just heard was our last program, which focused on the Leap Manifesto. Thanks to rabble radio team members David Kattenburg, Sophia Reuss, Campbell McClintock and Greg MacDougall who did a fabulous job running all over Montreal gathering stories to hit some pretty tight deadlines on some of the hottest days of the year. Just one example of the kind of projects we want to do more of in 2017.   We talked about media democracy, explained what the World Social Forum was about, talked about releasing the corporate stranglehold, new types of storytelling and why The LEAP Manifesto is important enough to deserve its own program. 2.) We had a radio drama this year. The Strange Wax Cylinders of Thaddeus Barnes was a six part steampunk adventure involving retro scientific gadgetry, inventor Nicola Tesla and a mystery to be solved. It was produced by Wayne MacPhail for HarrowsmithNow. And Harrowsmith invited us to run the series on the rabble podcast network. 3.) And final excerpt today is to help you start the new year with some quiet contemplation about what matters and what doesn't. Perspective is a wonderful thing, so here is an excerpt from Drolkar McCallum on finding happiness, Buddhism and meditation. She talks to David Peck, host and producer of the podcast Face2Face.  You can see the full list of Victoria's podcast picks here.  There are many more great podcasts from the year that was. We wish we could list them all.

Big Farming

Since it's harvest season, what better time to take a look at farming. And sadly, it's not the family farm we're going to be talking about. There are still some family farms left, and still some independent farmers who are making a living for themselves adopting new forms of sustainable agriculture. But despite the growth of organics, artisan food products and people who are adopting farming practices that are kind to the land, the corporations continue to march across the countryside. We'll hear from a few people today who can tell us what's wrong with that. 1.) Pat Mooney  is one of Canada's “go to” people for his perspective on technology, biodiversity, intellectual property as it relates to our food supply, and corporate control of agriculture. His organization, The ETC group, works to address social inequalities affecting the poorest people in the world especially relating to food and agriculture. He spoke at the World Social Forum in August. Dave Kattenburg edited and produced this for his online magazine The Green Planet Monitor and shared it with rabble radio. 2.)  Gabriel Allahdua, a migrant farmworker and one of the organizers of Justicia, a group which demands justice for migrant farm workers. There are a lot fewer jobs in agriculture than there used to be because of technology. But there is still the need for people. And as in all industries, big farming needs a workforce. Agricultural work means long hours and working conditions. It's hard work, low paid and often dangerous. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the seasonal farm workers program, set up by the Pearson Government in 1966. It's not a program we want to be especially proud of. This interview is an excerpt of a longer program by Scott Neigh of Talking Radical Radio.  3.) Lois Ross is one of our newer columnists at rabble.ca. She's a communications specialist, writer, and editor, living in Ottawa.  She writes for rabble about issues that are key to food production here in Canada as well as internationally. She has a background in many different areas and could have done her column on labour, or international development or a whole bunch of other topics. She talks about why agriculture is important for rural and urban people.  You can read her columns here.

There were hundreds of panel discussions at the World Social Forum. The hard thing was to make a choice which one to go to. There weren't a lot of descriptions in the handbook sometimes, so often we just had to pick one and see how it all turned out. You never knew what you were going to get.   And there were so many interviews and recordings that we weren't able to fit in to Ears on the Earth, our daily podcast during the Forum. In weeks to come, we'll bring you more of the sounds, conversations and panels that we gathered.  Today, two more. 1) Joseph Wawatie is an Algonquin Elder from Barriere Lake in western Quebec. In 2012, he was arrested for protesting logging on his traditional territory — land which remains unceded territory. He was part of a panel discussion at the World Social Forum called Indigenous Peoples' Struggles and Resistance. He speaks of his traditional life in the bush, and the challenges his nation faces. 2) Norman Stockwell, publisher of The Progressive: rabble radio host and rabble podcast network exec producer Victoria Fenner talked to Norman about the role of alternative media in this fractitious, extraordinary presidential election campaign that's happening right now. Bernie Sanders was a great choice for president. Hillary Clinton — well, opinion is mixed on that. Yet, if they don't want Donald Trump for president, Hillary's it. So what's a progressive to do when there are no good alternatives? 3) Looking ahead — we have a new podcast on the rpn.

This summer, downtown Montreal hosted the 13th annual World Social Forum with social movements, advocacy campaigns and NGOs from around the world meeting for 6 days of networking, teach-ins and solidarity-building events. But in the lead up to the event, hundreds of global activists were denied visas by the Canadian government leading to lower-than-anticipated attendance at the Forum. The 2016 WSF failed to meet it's anticipated participation level of 50,000 attendees. The Forum was also widely ignored by Canada's mainstream media, leaving most Canadians in the dark about the nation's role in hosting a major global event. In spite of these issues, many believe that the Forum can be considered a success. To explain why, Ruby Irene Pratka, a Montreal-based journalist specializing in migration and the cultural community, reports on what she observed at the Forum.

August may seem like a ways away, but for the organizers of the World Social Forum in Montreal in August, time is ticking away. Two years ago in August, the city of Ottawa was the site for a warmup to the World Social Forum. The Peoples' Social Forum  was a huge event. The thing about these kinds of Social Forums is that they are very ambitious. Anybody can propose a workshop, or a discussion group. The result of this is an incredible amount of energy in one place, and lots to talk about and think about. In a lot of ways, Ottawa was a dress rehearsal for the World Social Forum, which will be held in Montreal from August 9-14, 2016. A look back at the Peoples' Social Forum and a look ahead to what's being planned when the world comes to Montreal ..  1)  Earlier this month, Talking Radical Radio did a whole program about the World Social Forum. Here is an excerpt from that program, where host Scott Neigh talks to Sarah Sultani And Katia Stuart-Gagnon.  2)  rabble.ca was there at the People's Social Forum in 2014, doing a podcast every day for rabble radio. Here's are some of the voices, sounds and ideas from Ottawa.
