Environmental communication scholar Dr. Hanna Morris shared her insights from "Apocalyptic Authoritarianism: Climate Crisis, Media, and Power," her 2025 book with Oxford Univ Press. This book meets the political moment in analyzing the way most mainstream news media actually lean moderate to right in climate coverage that "others" and villianizes the New Left activists and progressive politicians as too 'radical' or 'woke' (like A.O.C. and often other women of color or those proposing the Green New Deal) in favor of older American narratives of "order" and quick solutions via white male authorities and American exceptionalism, rather than exploring democratic coalitions of many Americans who are proposing deeper climate justice and equity initiatives and new sustainable ways of living (going beyond simplified technological global warming fixes preferred by authorities). But Morris has ideas for how more robust climate journalism --that challenges privileged authority figures, respects the wisdom of the public, and acknowledges the violences of the climate crisis -- could foster the kinds of democratic and holistic/deep responses the climate crisis warrants. We discuss current issues that the journalism profession is facing in this digital era and trump regime. Dr. Morris and I begin this 50-minute In Tune to Nature podcast by chatting about our upcoming trips to Tasmania for the Conference on Communication and the Environment #COCE2025 as members of the International Environmental Communication Association that we volunteer for. I end the podcast with audio of an Australian (Tasmanian) animal species (nonhuman) and ask you to identify the species and email me your guess.

When you hear the term "animal welfare" you probably think cats, dogs, horses, maybe pet parakeets. But there is an organization called Wild Animal Initiative that is expanding the notion of animal welfare to include wild/free-living animal individuals. For my 100th podcast episode, my guest Cat Kerr with Wild Animal Initiative was here to talk about how scientists try to measure wellbeing in wild animals (you can guess some of the criteria) and why we have not often done that in scientific research on a regular basis (it's different from veterinary research and conservation research). Cat and host Carrie Freeman talk for 50 minutes in the Radio Free Georgia studio in Atlanta in April 2025, sharing some stories about a one-eyed squirrel on Carrie's porch, wild bird welfare, how scientists are helping house sparrows live better lives (despite how some folks don't like sparrows, go figure), what wild birds with bird flu are going through, and how to promote wild animal welfare research and policies, including what we can do to improve our animal neighbors' lives. Check out https://www.wildanimalinitiative.org/ to read and support their research (they also offer grants to researchers...since science funding is getting hard to come by these days).

In this mass extinction era, can we save the Endangered Species Act? We discuss how engaged citizens can speak out against the trump regime's recent proposal to weaken the notion of what “harm” legally means (so the Endangered Species Act would essentially no longer protect animals' habitats from exploitation, even though habitat destruction is the largest threat to species). Here's a link to a public comment opportunity for engaged citizens to post their thoughts to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Services (by May 19 ,2025). But the fight will be ongoing and end up in court, so continue to keep tabs on what we can all do for wild animal protection. In this 44-minute podcast, In Tune to Nature Host Carrie Freeman interviews Tara Zuardo, a legal expert, and Senior Advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity. https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/biodiversity/# Tara discusses: the successes of the 50+ year Endangered Species Act (ESA) (it has faced attacks before, but courts have held firm), how contentious some have made the ESA historically (such as with the spotted owl), how flexible the ESA actually is in balancing human and nonhuman animal interests, larger issues of needing to legally protect all (even non-endangered) wild/free-living animals in North America, such as on wildlife refuges and from trapping (yes that's still a thing), and how to work at the state and local level on wildlife-friendly policies (while acknowledging our exhaustion that we have to waste time and resources for four years, trying to protect what we have, rather than moving forward at the federal level).

In honor of National Park Week and Earthday 2025, we are supporting OUR national parks by sharing stories about what we love about the parks that we all collectively own (the most beautiful and ecologically significant wild places/habitats in the nation...and in the world, as some earned UNESCO World Heritage Site designations), to help encourage Americans to ask for political support to stop trump and musk/DOGE from defunding OUR parks and to stop firing our hard-working park rangers and staff who are our park defenders. In this 28 minute episode I talk about an Atlanta group of women I'm working with on National Park support projects via an Intown Women's Resistance group. They helped send in stories from people around the nation of people talking about parks they love and why (like Cumberland Island NP in GA, and Arches NP in Utah, and me talking about seeing bison and interviewing wolf biologist Rick McIntyre in Yellowstone's Lamar Valley). We encourage you all to share your own park memories with friends and on social media, and to contact your federal Senators and Representatives to demand they protect park employee jobs and fully fund the national parks, and any park programs associated with climate mitigation and DEI, and protect all OUR public lands (some of which are now threatened with being sold to private owners/industries, snuck into a recent Republican budget bill). We must stay vigilant. Here are some organizations that support parks and their employees and can keep us educated on issues and action items, recommended by friend and retired Forester from the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Kristine Johnson: PEER: Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility The Coalition to Protect America's National Parks The National Park Conservation Association "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or Melody Paris.

We reframe the “egg crisis” (high prices and low supply of commercial hen's eggs in a bird flu outbreak) as a crisis of mass farming of animals, proposing sustainable alternative food solutions that can replace eggs and reduce the spread of zoonotic diseases, pollution, and the killing and harm of millions of wild and domesticated animals. Jennifer and Carrie discuss this in the context of the bird flu outbreak, as avian influenza is spreading and mutating in a variety of animal species (including cows used for dairy and human farm workers) – this infectious pathogen is an increasingly alarming issue for wild animals, farmed animals, and human health. The existence of factory farms keeps viruses circulating, making everyone less safe. We discuss how institutions can help us shift toward safer more humane, plant-based food systems. We end by discussing alternatives to eggs in your baking and cooking. Dr. Jennifer Molidor, Sr. Food Campaigner at the Center for Biological Diversity is host Carrie Freeman's guest on this 42-minute podcast, recorded in late March 2025. Jennifer mentioned these resources: Take Extinction Off Your Plate https://takeextinctionoffyourplate.com/ Wildlife-Friendly School Food Programs https://takeextinctionoffyourplate.com/school-food-1 One of Carrie's go-to sites for animal-free recipes, especially baking, is Loving it Vegan https://lovingitvegan.com/ If you want to see where America's animal products come from (and who they come from), check out this factory farming website from Farm Sanctuary (an animal rescue organization) that helps us look these individuals in the eyes with compassion and justice: https://www.farmsanctuary.org/issue/factory-farming/ "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or Melody Paris.

You're in for a treat with this episode. I found Adama through a short clip on Instagram, and it cut through the noise like a knife. I knew that I had to connect with her. Adama has been helping raise consciousness on this planet for over 40 years. She lives what she preaches, and you can feel the depth of this embodiment with every word. Adama is a force of nature, and after our conversation, I felt like I was walking on water. You will, too. If you don't know her work, buckle up. About After earning a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Florida, along with Presidential and Scholastic Honors, I returned to Atlanta to study Conscious Cosmic Citizenship with African elder Josiah Osuagwu from 1982 to 1985, continuing private tutelage for 17 years. My focus was on Creator-Knowledge, Creation-Knowledge, and Self-Knowledge as essential for Liberation and Emancipation, aiming to reorient, regenerate, and re-educate individuals and collectives about their roles in Conscious Living. In 1984, I began performing with SOLAR at the New Orleans World Fair and as a solo artist in 1985, using rhythm, movement, and verse to inspire audiences. My performances include appearances with the Staple Singers, Melba Moore, and Aisha Khalil, as well as at major venues like Fox Theater, Emory University, and the National Black Arts Festival, along with radio interviews on WDET and WRFG. I consulted for the Wholistic Stress Control Institute, teaching life skills and poetry to youth in Atlanta, including over 2,000 young people in 1999 through various youth centers and schools. I also served as president and co-owner of Mother Earth's Adornments, Inc., which offered custom adornments, vegan cuisine, and spiritual consultation. I currently produce and host the radio program "The Meeting of The Inner Circle" on 89.3FM WRFG Atlanta, providing inspirational programming on liberation, resurrection, and life-support. As a strict vegetarian for over forty years, I am also an Inspirational Lifestyle Change and Wholistic Wellness Consultant, helping others with spiritual and nutritional support for healing and regeneration. As CEO of Integrity Global Enterprises, Inc., I produce Mother Earth's Blessing products, including healing clays, oils, and herbal teas. I also run the Mother Earth's Blessing Wholistic Life Center, which offers coaching, classes, and empowerment sessions. The center focuses on disease reversal, cleansing, and cellular regeneration. I also provide numerological and destiny card readings and aim to inspire action against destructive industries through live streams and documentaries promoting conscious living.

Our National Park Service staff are under seige, as so many federal employees are, from trump and Elon Musk's unfair attacks on our federal government agencies with haphazard and frankly cruel mass firings of public servants (not truly based on inefficiency or poor performance) along with spending and hiring freezes that are traumatizing and debilitating park employees and surrounding communities, creating a culture of fear and demoralization (the rhetoric not only lacks appreciation but is insulting). What little we gain in $ savings are outweighed by the massive long-term costs for everyone. I turned to a career public servant with over 40 years in the National Park Service -- retired Supervisory Forester Kristine Johnson from Great Smoky Mountains National Park, still living and volunteering in Gatlinburg, TN-- to have her on the "In Tune to Nature" show to help us understand what is going on and how these firings and spending freezes are really affecting park employees and morale on the ground (kids and the broader Gatlinburg community included). In our 47-minute conversation, Kristine also shares the potential long-term harmful impacts on wild animal residents and park habitats, concerns about the government privatizing park jobs and prioritizing recreation over wildlife and scientific research, public and wild animal safety issues, and what we as citizens can do now to help support our parks in this crisis. Prior to the trump regime, our national parks were already overloaded with tourists who love them, while being chronically understaffed and underfunded. The parks can't afford to lose any more dedicated staff, so American citizens need to step up to defend them if we truly care. Do we have the power to get these hardworking and talented folks re-hired if we tell our U.S. Senators and Representative that's what we demand?! Let's find out. Organizations who are speaking out and can serve as resources for us are: PEER: Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility The Coalition to Protect America's National Parks The National Park Conservation Association Indivisible.org "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or Melody Paris.

To honor primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall's 90th birthday (April 3 2024) and her continuing conservation work, I am playing part of a recent Mongabay News interview with her, hosted by Rhett A. Butler, followed by a PBS News Hour interview from 2016 with the late biologist E.O. Wilson where he discussed his final book "Half Earth" which he wrote in his late eighties. He continued working until he passed at age 92 in 2021 and his legacy lives on with his many nature books and his Half Earth Project nonprofit that seeks to protect half of our planet's most biodiverse land and sea spaces to ensure wildlife has access and can thrive there without humans exploiting them or taking over the space -- this protection Wilson explains is necessary to end the mass extinction crisis (other animals cannot thrive living in fragmented isolated parks here and there). I think you'll enjoy hearing from these legends with their hopeful messages and solutions on this 31-minute podcast. You can find out more about the pioneering and ongoing work of these inspirational lifelong biologists at their nonprofits: The Jane Goodall Institute and the Half-Earth Project.

Renowned animal ethologist Dr. Marc Bekoff shares insights from the newly revised edition of his classic book: “The Emotional Lives of Animals: A leading scientist explores animal joy, sorrow, and empathy, -- and why they matter” with a foreword by famed primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall. In April 2024, with the release of the book near Dr. Goodall's 90th birthday, Dr. Bekoff spent 38 minutes with host Carrie Freeman discussing: what it's like working with Dr. Goodall, what has changed in the exploding field of cognitive ethology (the study of animal minds) in the last 20 years, how fairness and justice are a common trait in social animals to maintain cooperation (like with coyotes), why less "charismatic" animals like fish and mice will surprise us with their personalities (as all animals are individuals not just inter-changeable members of their species), how we need to work for animal "wellbeing" not just animal "welfare" for domesticated and wild animals, and ethical choices -- what we all can do to play our part in reducing animal suffering and advocating for animals (whom we should no longer under-estimate or ignore). We end on a hopeful note, thanks to a 4th grader who inspired Marc. The Emotional Lives of Animals book chapters cover: the indisputable case for animal emotions; animal minds and hearts; what animals feel; wild justice, empathy, and fair play; and a final chapter on why animal wellbeing matters - with lots of recommendations across various fields of animal types and uses (zoos, farms, research labs, etc.). The author, Marc Bekoff, PhD has been an animal advocate and researcher for close to 50 years, and he's a prolific author of more than 30 books on nonhuman animals. A professor emeritus of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Dr. Bekoff has won many awards for his research on animal behavior, compassionate conservation, animal protection, and animal emotions. He publishes regularly for Psychology Today. His website is https://marcbekoff.com/ I'm happy to report that The Emotional Lives of Animals book is printed on 100% recycled paper bc the publisher -- New World Library-- is part of the Green Press Initiative.

We discuss the latest in the 2024 fight against environmental racism and stream water degradation as part of the "Save The Atlanta Forest" movement also knowns as the "Stop Cop City" movement, in Southeast Atlanta, comprised of many allied groups of citizens who over the last several years are working to stop/discontinue the building of a multi-million dollar mega law enforcement training center in a forested watershed area, where it is unwanted by the adjacent human community of many Black residents, and by the wildlife who (used to) live there too. To tell us about the ongoing legal efforts is Dr. Jacqueline Echols, Board President of the South River Watershed Alliance. @southriverGA #southriverGA In this 28-minute Feb. 2024 interview, host Carrie Freeman asks Dr. Echols to explain the civil rights act administrative complaint her organization filed, alleging the origins of the copy city installation constitute intentional harm and qualify as environmental racism. And she discusses another pending legal case alleging violations of the clean water act from increased sediment deposits harming the already polluted streams and river that may not be able to sustain life. Dr. Echols notes that stalling/delay by the courts and government officials seems to be a tactic used throughout this project to get the facility built under the radar before the city is officially told they legally cannot. Construction of the facility and destruction of many trees has already taken place. The "Save the forest" image of the sad rabbit painting on the bridge on the South River Trail taken by host Carrie Freeman. See cement barricade there. Note: you never see any "tear down the Atlanta forest" or "build cop city" artwork around the city. There was a lot of helicopter noise that was in the area too at that cop city building site, and noise like that scares away a lot of the wild/free animal residents. Carrie didn't get audio of the copters but she does play an audio clip several times of the frog serenade along the South River trail wetland.

In this double-show we explore problems and solutions for transforming America's flawed model of wildlife management that is oddly human-centric (hunter-centric), undemocratic, and often cruel, by speaking with wildlife advocate and author Anja Heister, PhD, about her recent book “Beyond the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation: From Lethal to Compassionate Conservation,” published by the academic press Palgrave Macmillan as part of their Animal Ethics Series. Founder of Footloose Montana, an anti-trapping organization, and decades long advocate for animals, Dr. Heister wrote a book that provides a nuanced analysis of the wildlife management system and its faults in the U.S. and a vision for what could be a compassionate conservation alternative that is nonviolent, and more democratic and representative of the interests of all Americans (not primarily hunters and trappers), including the interests of all of America's wild animals, not just endangered species or the so-called “game species.” We can't keep leaving wildlife to be at the mercy of management by a small group of Americans, namely hunters and trappers, sporting and ranching industries, and rural residents, and instead let all of us put wildlife first in wildlife policies. In this 54-minute episode, hosted by Carrie Freeman, she and Dr. Heister discuss: misconceptions many Americans have about the way wildlife is managed, challenging historic myths of hunting and/as conservation, how our wildlife system is funded by hunting licenses and gun sales providing misguided incentives, and Governors having more control than citizens in policymaking, examples of cruel policies towards wolves in Montana, how many laws protect hunters and trappers more than animals, enabling cruelty, how empathy and emotion should play a larger role with rationality in wildlife management, and a vision to transform our U.S. wildlife management agencies based on compassionate conservation principles that value individual animal lives and promote all Americans' input in protecting and supporting our wild animal neighbors. Consider supporting nonprofit conservation groups who advocate for change, like Wildlife For All. https://wildlifeforall.us/ "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly radio show airing Wednesdays at 6:30pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station).

This is audio from a panel discussion about the role of artists against imperialism and apartheid, that took place on November 29, 2023 in Atlanta, GA. Our focus was on the genocide unfolding in Palestine, however the topic spans many relevant points related to art, revolutionary movements, and more. We expected about 40 people to show up, and instead nearly 100 did, and we had people sitting on the floors, in people's laps, and even 4 rows of chairs outside the room in the hallway listening. The panel was hosted by WRFG, Artists Against Apartheid, Atlanta Radical Art Collective, and the Black Alliance for Peace Atlanta. The audio has been lightly edited for time purposes, and to make it a better listening experience. We opened up with a series of readings from poets, which I unfortunately had to condense due to time constraints. If yall would like a 'bonus' episode with the full poetry readings, let me know.Poets: Stephen Foster Smith, W.J. Lofton, Aurielle MariePanelists: Lulu Ali Amar, Umaymah, Rozina Shiraz Gilani, Musa Springer, Jasmine Nicole Williams (moderator) Enjoy!

Women, especially women of color, are highly impacted by the climate crisis and the fossil fuel industry and also are leaders (and increasingly should be) in promoting a clean energy transition and healthy communities. Osprey Orielle Lake discusses the nonprofit she founded and directs -- WECAN -- Women's Earth & Climate Action Network International in this 25-minute podcast recorded in March 2022 (for Women's Herstory Month) for "In Tune to Nature" radio show, with host Carrie Freeman. https://www.wecaninternational.org/ In addition to answering questions about 'why focus on women?' and 'what is your vision for climate solutions?' Osprey also shared some results of WECAN's latest report Gendered and Racial Impacts of the Fossil Fuel Industry in North America and Complicit Financial Institutions: A Call to Action for the Health of our Communities and Nature in the Climate Crisis. The report can be found here; https://www.wecaninternational.org/2021-divestment-report “In Tune to Nature" broadcasts every Wednesday at 6:30pm Eastern Time online at www.wrfg.org and on Atlanta radio station 89.3FM.

Chris Bugbee, SW Conservation Advocate of the Center for Biological Diversity, discusses the ecological problems with cheap permits allowing cattle grazing across so many millions of acres of public lands in the U.S. West -- the largest commercial use of public lands. This is especially damaging in riparian zones along rivers, reducing biodiversity and threatening the other animals and plants who live there. We discuss how government land management agencies are not fulfilling a responsibility to serve public and conservation interests as long as they continue catering to ranchers' economic interests (equating to a long-time taxpayer subsidy of the beef industry). We end by discussing some recent victories of The Center for Biological Diversity in its efforts to fight this destructive ranching practice. Host Carrie Freeman interviewed Chris Bugbee in February of 2022 (24 minutes). https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/ “In Tune to Nature" broadcasts every Wednesday at 6:30pm Eastern Time online at www.wrfg.org and on Atlanta radio station 89.3FM.

This week, Aja returns behind the mic with Jess Izard—contributor and now-business manager at the Mainline—to air an important episode in the practice of media reparations, as envisioned and outlined by Media 2070. In this episode, Aja and Jess turn their critical media lenses to a previous broadcast of the Mainline Podcast and Mainline News Hour episode on WRFG.On Sept. 10, the Mainline aired an episode of its news hour on WRFG (labeled Episode 48 on the Mainline Podcast) following Atlanta City Council's vote to authorize a ground lease of 381 acres of green space to the Atlanta Police Foundation for $10 a year. In this episode, guest Ryan Gravel spoke of another case and legal strategy which leaned on a "logic" that protesters of the city-state are potentially harmful to constituents. This narrative is false, has no bearing, and should not have been legitimized on our broadcast, in any context.Aja atones for her role as an editor and journalist in that moment, as well as further explains the harm of the narrative. Jess and Aja read a critical feedback letter sent to the editor following the broadcast beautifully explaining the danger of the neoliberal fascism as it's being displayed in both Atlanta city government and mainstream media. All these elements combine bring us to the movement of media reparations and why it's so important to continue this practice.

We're back this week with part two of our in-depth discussion of critical race theory featuring Sylvia, Aja, Nolan, and King. The original broadcast is available along with other lines of coverage via our Patreon, which is linked in our bio.In this segment, guest contributor Nolan Huber-Rhoades discusses his personal experience with white evangelicalism, the internal conflict around critical race theory, and the Christian Right's role in cultivating widespread opposition to CRT. At the end, Sylvia and Nolan will reconnect to discuss local news, ongoing court cases, and what, if any, progress has been made surrounding the CRT debate. Tune in on WRFG 89.3 Atlanta every Friday at 12pm EST for the Mainline News Hour.
Today on Mainline News Hour on WRFG Atlanta, we are featuring a rebroadcast of our special bonus episode covering Critical Race Theory that was originally published in our Patreon in June. We are joined by Sylvia who gives us a recap centering us in the present day in a conversation that is extremely relevant today & has largely gone uncovered in many important ways. Join us next week for a continued conversation between Sylvia and Mainline contributor Nolan Huber-Rhodes to dive deeper into the missing pieces.As Sylvia explains today, “In early June, the Georgia State Board of Education passed a 13-point resolution regarding the teaching—or should I say not teaching—of CRT in Georgia's public schools. This is a solution to a problem that didn't exist.”“As we all know by now,” she continues, “CRT wasn't being taught to K-12 students in the first place; that didn't stop a wave of outrage around this wedge issue. It led to showdowns in many school board meetings throughout the state & country. Some parents have since moved past their CRT outrage to protesting mask & vaccine mandates in schools. Part one of this conversation touches on the definition, examples, & possible outcomes of the absence or injection of CRT in schools. We mainly touch on education & policy, but didn't go into great detail on other systems affected like healthcare. I wish we had.”In this special rebroadcast, Sylvia shares a recent personal experience in the medical and health care system regarding her personal care, linking the importance of critical analysis of race in our systems beyond public education.“Data & well documented history of the American medical system have made it very clear to me that as a Black woman, if I am not careful when choosing healthcare providers, more harm than healing will be done. Maybe if doctors were exposed to CRT, biased thoughts like the pain tolerances of Black women during childbirth, the thickness of black skin, or perceived drug-seeking during emergencies wouldn't be some of the horror stories many of us have heard or experienced.”We'll return with new stories on Oct. 22 as we embrace much-needed structural and formatting changes to ensure sustainability in our coverage and newsroom. Catch us on the airwaves on WRFG every Friday at 12pm EST & look for our backlog of podcast episodes of The Mainline Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.

This week, Aja and Sylvia catch up with city designer and urban thinker Ryan Gravel following Atlanta City Council's vote to pass a proposal by the Atlanta Police Foundation to build an 85-acre police training facility on the 381-acre forested land in DeKalb County known as the Old Atlanta Prison Farm. In this episode, we discuss the events leading up to the vote, the vote itself, and what could happen next.Prior to council's vote, council members sat through 17 hours of public comment in which nearly 70% of voters adamantly opposed the facility. Council deliberated hte proposal for about an hour before passing the legislation, denying any additional amendments, in a 10-4 vote.The proposal originally sought to build a 150-acre training facility before adjusting following intense public outcry and dissent. Local organizers in Community Movement Builders, Sunrise Atlanta, Atlanta DSA, DARC, and others have been galvanizing in the #StopCopCity movement since the ordinance was introduced in June. Other organizations like the South River Forest Coalition have also been advocating and organizing for preservation of the forest.This episode plays exactly as it was aired during the Mainline News Hour on WRFG radio in Atlanta on Fri., Sept. 10.ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:To learn more about the land, which was originally inhabited by the Muscogee Creek Nation before they were forcibly removed.

This episode is a double feature: the debut of The Mainline News Hour on WRFG 89.3 in Atlanta as well as the People's story about the growing #StopCopCity movement in the city. In this special report, founding editor Aja Arnold delivers a brief explainer of Cop City — the City of Atlanta and Atlanta Police Foundation's newly-proposed massive $90 million police training facility — and the land the city wishes to place it on, the Old Atlanta Prison Farm.The report features recorded audio from last month's People's Town Hall, an event organized by local groups DARC, Atlanta DSA, Community Movement Builders, and Sunrise ATL. The People's Town Hall is the only true public forum event regarding Cop City to date, with no collaboration with any elected officials in city council or City Hall. Of the 13 council members, only two were in attendance.Over 100 Atlantans gathered to speak their opposition, concerns, and sentiments towards the proposal and the city's governance at-large. Tune in to hear the people's story of #StopCopCity. This episode plays exactly as it aired on WRFG on Fri., Sept. 3.INDIGENOUS LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT [also discussed in the report]The City of Atlanta and Atlanta Police Foundation are attempting to build a 150-acre police training facility on 381 acres of forested land that is historically known as the Old Atlanta Prison Farm. The prison farm land is city-owned, but resides in unincorporated DeKalb County. This land was once home to the Muscogee (Creek) indigenous peoples before the land was awarded in a land lottery to a plantation owner who practiced the chattel enslavement of African people.ADDITIONAL RESOURCESAja's recent report about the training facility published in The Intercept: https://theintercept.com/2021/08/11/atlanta-police-training-center/An info starter kit to #StopCopCity via The Mainline: https://www.patreon.com/posts/53201136A local researcher's metal analysis testing of Intrenchment Creek, the water source in the South River Forest/Old Atlanta Prison Farm: https://twitter.com/lilponitz/status/1425103516390014991To learn more how you can help in the movement: https://stopcopcity.orgTo support our work, become a sustaining member at https://patreon.com/mainlinezine or consider making a one-time donation at https://mainlinezine.com/donate

In this special interview, we speak over the phone with two Black immigrants who are detained in Atlanta City Detention Center, as well as Kevin Caron, a local Atlanta organizer and abolitionist that does tremendous work with immigrant communities. Throughout the interview you will notice difficulties with telephone connection and communication; we decided not to edit these things out, and instead to leave these various difficulties in the audio as to expose the listeners to the vast difficulties that often come with trying to communicate with incarcerated people. Mohammed, who is from Ghana, discusses his journey of coming to the US, the difficulties he has faced being a Black, Muslim immigrant in jail, the impact incarceration has on mental health, and the impossible challenges he has faced in trying to navigate the US immigration system. The Richard, from Jamaica, discusses the inhumane conditions they face within the jails/detention centers, the legal battles that he has endured, and how these issues of immigration specifically impact African and Caribbean immigrants. Finally we end with an interview with Kevin Caron, a local Atlanta organizer and abolitionist who does tremendous work with detained immigrants and throughout many immigrant communities. Kevin works with both Georgia Detention Watch and A World Without Police. [DISCLAIMER: This interview was recorded in the beginning of May, and a few weeks after this interview was recorded we got word that Mohammed was freed in June and has safely returned to his home in Ghana.] listen to our other episodes at Groundings.Simplecast.fm follow Devyn on Twitter @HalfAtlanta and check out Christopher's radio show Rhythm & Resistance on WRFG.

Revolutionary Pan-Africanist writer, artist, and organizer Sobukwe Shakur gives a first-hand account of the history of the Black Art Movement, a movement which took place in the 1960s and 1970s and ran parallel to the Black Power Movement. Sobukwe Shukur is a multi-media cultural worker, the host of the Revolutionary African Perspectives radio show on Georgia's independent WRFG station, a cadre and organizer in Nkrumah’s brainchild, the All-African People’s Revolutionary Party (A-APRP) and a former chair of the National Network On Cuba (NNOC). The conversation begins with Sobukwe setting the context for the Black Arts Movement, one of global Black political consciousness at its height, before diving into first-hand experiences as a school student during the early 1960s before transforming into an organizer and cultural worker within the movement itself. In discussing the politics of the Black Arts Movement, he discusses how various ideologies existed simultaneously, at times in conflict, and how this was embraced and seen through the act of a multi-plural cultural revolution that took place. In the final third of the interview we discuss the legacy of the Black Arts Movement; how it has influenced us today compared to the Harlem Renaissance, and how Black arts of today reflect a deeply different dominant ideology being reflected in the art.

Atlanta Hip Hop has a rich tradition and history in radio. It begins with WIGO and WAOK and quickly became stronger in the college radio scene with stations like WRAS (Georgia State) and WREK (Georgia Tech), The Fresh Party on V103 as well as community radio WRFG. We all know about the stories of Greg Street and Frank Ski. Atlanta is blessed to have had those dynamic DJs help push the scene. This is the other side of the story, the story of DJs that year after year worked the club circuit before graduating into ATL radio. In this episode we hear stories from DJs that started their careers on these stations and others that witnessed these careers grow. We learn more about Lil Jon’s House, Reggae and Hip Hop DJing days, The Beef © between P. Diddy and Atlanta DJs and how early DJs used the radio as a springboard into the Hip Hop industry. Stories heard from: DJ Mars, Smoove Matty Matt, Brian Lassiter, Talib Shabazz, H20, DJ Jaycee, J of Earwax Records, Shannon McCollum, DJ Nabs, Marcel Daniels, DJ Applejac & DJ Mafioso.

This is episode number 91 of the Reggae Lover Podcast with the top lyricists of Reggae music today. The selection features 20 lyrically potent songs. The concept was a suggestion by Kris Richards, a listener out of the Atlanta. Kris is a visual and graphic artist who enjoys listening to this podcast while he creates his art. He created the original artwork for this episode. Visit @iandidea on IG to see Kris Richards' magnificent works. A big shout out and thank you to Kris, representing Jamaica and the ATL. So far his feedback is that this mix is too short, and he has requested a part 2. I'm cool with it. I'll go ahead and mix up a series of lyricist-based podcast episodes. This mix keeps your head bobbing all the way through. If you came to the end and thought "wait... what... it's over already?" then I know you will come back for more. Meanwhile, you have to go back and listen to this wordplay and these metaphors. Lyrics are layered with symbolism in the songs, especially those by Kabaka Pyramid. You have to go back and listen again to extract the true meaning. Rebellious Nature by Agent Sasco kicked it off. Wicked Man by Busy Signal, Wadada by Jesse Royal and Kabaka Pyramid's Global Warning complete the intro. Listen to Can't Breathe, Well Done, and also Liberal Opposer by Kabaka. He also features on The Flame with Protege. Koffee, the 17-year-old sensation, makes her mark on Burning. Protege's creativity is on display with the one called Criminal and also Truth and Rights. Over Damian Marley's On the Corner Riddim, you hear Chronixx with Ghetto People. Busy Signal's Survival from the Return Riddim by Jukebox Productions adds to the vibe. Love Is All I Bring, the new Spragga Benz tune from Sting International fits in well. I was able to squeeze in 1999's Wha Yuh Say Star which got left off of the Spragga Benz podcast. Damian Marley flows on The Master Has Come Back and Road to Zion featuring Nas off the Welcome to Jamrock album. In the next edition of the lyrical opposer mix, you're going to hear some more from Vybz Kartel. I'll also bring it very current with 2018 material from these and other new artists. Thank you to the listeners who have added ratings and reviews on iTunes. Shouts out to my very lovely wife who has been binge listening via the podcast app on her new iPhone. I'm honored to have you listen to my podcast. It's all about us reggae lovers. We have to continue to spread the culture. I focus on the reality I want to see which is positivity. Positive energy and momentum arise from reggae music. Shout out to my family at WRFG 89.3FM. I'll be dropping by the Global Drumbeat and Riot Radio shows this week to spread the word about Reggae Lover. I'm gonna drop 2 crazy guest DJ sets live on the air. I'll be talking about the podcast because I want more people to tune in as we build this movement. I'm inspiring and healing people with reggae. Look out for the episodes coming up where I'll be chopping it up with guests learn when, where, why and how they fell in love with reggae. Diving into some of the stories will be lots of fun and I'm so very excited about that. Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts and get a shout out on the next episode.
