The shortest war in history began at 09:02 on 27th August, 1896 - and was over 38 minutes later - when The British Empire, at the peak of its power, flexed its military might over the African island of Zanzibar. The drama began when the pro-British Sultan Hamad suddenly died, and his cousin Khalid bin Barghash decided to seize the throne without British approval. The British, who technically managed Zanzibar as a protectorate, issued an ultimatum: leave the palace or face the consequences. Khalid, full of confidence (or denial), refused. He barricaded himself inside with about 2,800 defenders, a handful of artillery, and a single yacht serving as the entire navy. When the Royal Navy opened fire, the beautiful wooden palace quickly turned into splinters. The Sultan's forces were completely outgunned, and by the end of the barrage, over 500 defenders were killed or wounded, the palace was in ruins, and the "navy" had been sunk. On the British side, one sailor sprained his shoulder. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal what happened to Barghash after he slipped out of a back door; explain why the War proved a turning point in Zanzibar's relationship to slavery; and ask whether the wannabe Sultan had poisoned his predecessor… Further Reading: • ‘The Shortest War In History: How Long Was The 1896 Anglo-Zanzibar War?'

This week we talk about flesh-eating screwworms, weeds, and the US cattle industry.We also discuss genetic modification, procreation, and tsetse flies.Recommended Book: 1177 BC by Eric H ClineTranscriptThe term ‘autocidal control‘ refers to a collection of techniques that are meant to control populations of some type of living thing, animal or plant, by disrupting their procreationary capacity.So rather than attempting to control pest by spraying poisons all over the place, or controlling plants you consider to be invasive weeds by launching huge weed-pulling efforts in the afflicted areas, you might instead figure out how to keep this current generation of pests and weeds from having as many offspring as they might otherwise have, and then repeat the process with the next generation, and the next, and so on, until the unwanted species is either eradicated in the relevant region, or reduced to such a small number that its presence is no longer such a big deal.There are all kinds of approaches one might take in trying to achieve this sort of outcome.Experimental genetic modification measures, for instance, have been tried in, so far at least, limited ways, the idea being to either make the disliked species less competitive in some way (by making them slower, and thus more likely to be eaten by predators, maybe), or by making them less likely to have offspring, or less likely to have fit offspring—the next generation becomes super slow and clumsy, or they're carriers of a gene that keeps them from procreating as much, or at all.That approach seems like it could be effective, and there are quite a few efforts, globally, that're working to refine and perfect it with mosquito species in particular, specifically the ones that are carriers of malaria-causing parasites and similar maladies that cause immense harm to local human (and other mammal) populations.There have also been attempts to spray mating grounds with pheromones that disrupt mating behavior, or to use what's called the Autodissemination Augmented by Males, or ADAM approach, which has been used to decent effect in some trials, and which involves basically just sprinkling a bunch of male mosquitos with pesticide, releasing them into mosquito mating grounds, and then having them deliver those pesticides to the females they mate with.All of these efforts are meant to reduce populations via some procreationary mechanism, while also attempting to ameliorate some of the other issues associated with other, widely used pest- and weed-control approaches. Most of which rely on some kind of chemical being introduced into the right environment, that chemical helping to kill or disrupt these populations, but in many cases also leading to unwanted, and often initially unforeseen side effects, like those chemicals messing with other species, getting into the groundwater and possibly being associated with maladies in humans, and so on.What I'd like to talk about today is another approach, the sterile insect technique, why it's become so popular in recent decades, and how it's being used, today, to address a burgeoning population of a pest that was previously eliminated in North America using this technique, but which has recently become a problem, once more.—The New World screwworm fly is thus named because its larvae, its baby offspring, are planted in warm-blooded animals. These offspring eat not just dead tissues, like the maggots of other flies, but healthy tissues as well.These maggots are often deposited near wounds, like cuts or scrapes, but also injuries caused by the castration or dehorning of cattle, or orifices and other sensitive areas with soft tissue, like the corner of a host's eye.They don't typically infest humans, but it does happen, and they're most likely to be found on wild and domesticated mammals, the females of the species depositing somewhere between 250 and 500 eggs in the flesh of their hosts, the maggots screwing their way deeper into their host's flesh as they grow, burrowing and eating for the next three to seven days, at which point they fall off and enter the next stage of their lifecycle. By that point the host may already be dead, depending on the extent of the damage these things manage to cause in the interim.These flies were originally found across the Americas and on some Caribbean islands, and they have long been a headache for cattle ranchers in particular, as they will sometimes infect one cow or goat, and then work their way through the entire herd in relatively short order, causing enough damage to seriously injure or kill a whole lot of the rancher's stock.As a result, humans have been trying to get rid of these things for ages, but nothing seemed to make much of a dent in their populations until the emergence of what's called the sterile insect technique, which is exactly what it sounds like: a method of autocidal control that involves sterilizing members of the species, usually the males, and then releasing them back into the population.Variations on this concept were developed by a few different researchers in a few different places around the world in the lead-up to WWII, but just after that conflict, scientists working at the US Department of Agriculture realized that they could use x-rays to reliably sterilize male screwworm flies, and that if they did this to a large number of them, then released those males into the local population of screwworm flies, to the point where there are more sterilized males than non-sterilized ones, that would serve to dramatically reduce the size of the next generation. If you then repeat this over and over again, you can eventually wipe out the species in a given region, as they successfully showed in the early 1950s by eradicating all the screwworms on Sanibel Island in Florida.The same technique was then used to kill all the screwworms on the island of Curacao, off the coast of Venezuela—that kill-off achieved in just seven weeks. Over the next few decades, sterilized male flies were then released across other afflicted US states, and both Mexico and Belize were able to kill all their screwworms in the 1980s, followed by Central America in the 1990s.This approach was also applied to other pests, almost always those that either spread disease to humans, or threatened local industries, like cattle or agricultural industries.For instance, tsetse flies, carriers of a parasite that causes sleeping sickness, were entirely or almost entirely eradicated from Tanzania, Zanzibar, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and Uganda between the 1940s and late-1990s, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, the carriers of dengue and yellow fever, were sterilized by a bacteria called Wolbachia in Queensland, Australia, in the late-20-teens, which reduced the populations of this disease-carrier in trial areas by 80%, and Japan eradicated the melon fly, an agricultural pest, in 1993.This approach to pest-control has become so popular that dozens of facilities have been set up in countries around the world, exclusively to breed and sterilize different species, which can then be shipped to where they will be released. The first of these facilities was built in Mexico in the 1960s, where Mexican fruit flies were bred and then shipped for release in Texas.It's maybe fitting then that a new round of construction is happening, today, intending to combat the renewed presence of screwworms in Mexico, which have been making their way up into Texas via these two nations' cattle industries.The US Department of Agriculture recently announced that it will be building a sterile screwworm fly facility in Texas, which has suffered due to the US's recent decisions to halt the import of cattle from across the border in Mexico due to issues with screwworms hitching a ride on that cattle stock, and thus infiltrating US herds. The government tried several times to drop this cessation of imports, as the US cattle industry is pretty reliant on those imports, but each time they tried, new screwworm infestations were found, and the import halt was put back into place.US cattle populations are already at their lowest level in decades, and that's impacting meat and dairy prices, while also putting other warm-blooded animals in the afflicted regions, especially Texas, at risk.The folks behind the new facility have said they hope to be up and running in relatively short order, aiming to be releasing sterile male New World screwworms into the wild within a year. This deployment will operate in tandem with other, more direct efforts, like fly traps and parasite-sniffing dogs stationed at ports of entry.The concerns here are not just theoretical: screwworms alone cause an estimated $1.5 billion in damage each year, and the cost of implementing a sterilization program of this kind usually adds up to something like a billion dollars, spread across decades; not a bad return on investment.These programs are not universally effective, though, as in some rare cases non-irradiated males have accidentally been shipped to their intended mating location, temporarily inflating rather than deflating population numbers. And while these programs are relatively cheap to operate on scale, the cost of producing enough sterilized males to make such an effort effective can be prohibitive when aimed at smaller regions, or when attempted by governments or agencies without the budget to see what can sometimes be a long-term project through.That said, this approach does seem to work very well when done correctly, and while its ecosystem impact is not zero, as, for instance, predators who eat these pests might suddenly find themselves without one of their staple food sources, which can lead to knock-on effects across the food web, it does seem to be one of the least foodweb ripple-producing approaches, as genetic modifications can theoretically lead to far more elaborate unforeseen consequences, and the widespread spraying of chemicals has semi-regularly led to die-offs and maladies in other local species, in addition to sometimes causing long-term, even fatal health problems for humans who rely on local food or water sources.Show Noteshttps://archive.is/20250815192422/https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/usda-build-texas-facility-fight-flesh-eating-screwworms-2025-08-15/https://www.oregonlive.com/business/2025/08/how-to-stop-flesh-eating-parasite-from-devastating-us-cattle-government-will-breed-billions-of-flies.htmlhttps://apnews.com/article/fly-factories-flesheating-parasite-cattle-texas-429ce91225bbab4a45c9040f1be356a5https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochliomyia_hominivoraxhttps://archive.is/14Rdkhttps://archive.is/afmt2https://archive.is/QfTvGhttps://archive.is/dxbcZhttps://www.oregonlive.com/business/2025/08/how-to-stop-flesh-eating-parasite-from-devastating-us-cattle-government-will-breed-billions-of-flies.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterile_insect_techniquehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sterile_insect_technique_trialshttps://web.archive.org/web/20210416164524/http://www-iswam.iaea.org/drd/refs_files/195_The-Area-wide-SIT-Screwworm.pdfhttps://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/sterile-insect-technique-used-to-suppress-mosquito-disease-vectors-in-floridahttps://www.cdc.gov/mosquitoes/mosquito-control/genetically-modified-mosquitoes.htmlhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-30722-9https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4313646/ This is a public episode.

Silvia Resnik is a certified coach with a Master's degree in Business Economics. Her professional journey began as a kindergarten teacher, transitioned into HR Management, and eventually led her to entrepreneurship. On the surface, she had checked all the boxes: a fulfilling career, marriage, a beautiful home, and a well-structured life.​ Yet, despite these accomplishments, Silvia felt an inner void. Years of self-exploration led her to uncover that she is an alone-born twin—a revelation that provided some insight but didn't bring the peace she sought. The turning point came during her encounter with the Maasai people on a journey to Zanzibar. Their heart-centered way of living resonated deeply with her, igniting a profound shift in her life.​ Today, Silvia splits her life between Austria and Tanzania, blending coaching with Maasai-inspired wisdom to guide women who, despite outward success, yearn for inner alignment. Through her unique coaching style, she helps these women rediscover their inner voice and design lives filled with freedom and fulfillment. Committed to giving back, Silvia also supports Maasai women and children in forging paths toward independence through her charitable initiatives.

Silvia Resnik's story is one of quiet longing, deep transformation and radical realignment. As an alone-born twin, she carried a sense of missingness all her life — even while following the “right” path: becoming a kindergarten teacher, earning a Master's in Business Economics, working in HR and building her own consulting business. On the outside, she had it all. On the inside, she felt empty.A spontaneous vacation to Zanzibar became the unexpected turning point. There, Silvia met the Maasai, a semi-nomadic tribe in East Africa known for their deep presence, connection to nature and spiritual strength. Something shifted. She felt seen, alive and whole — perhaps for the first time.She didn't just return home inspired — she changed her life completely. Silvia chose to live between two worlds and has since spent over 1.5 years in Tanzania, mostly on Zanzibar, living among the Maasai and integrating their wisdom into her way of being.Today, Silvia is an ICF-certified coach who guides high-achieving women out of the golden cage of perfection and back into a life of truth, freedom and purpose. She blends modern coaching with the grounded, ancestral wisdom of the Maasai. Silvia also partners directly with Maasai leaders in the movement to end Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), advocating for sustainable change from within. Sylvia splits her time between Austria and Tanzania, and joined us from Tanzania. Since I was in Sri Lanka when I recorded this episode and Silvia was in Tanzania, we had a few recording hiccups, but Silvia's inspiring story shines through!Learn more:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachsilviaresnik/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/silvia.simple.life.journey/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coachsilviaresnikLinktree: https://linktr.ee/resnik.silviaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/Websites: https://silviaresnik.comhttps://www.simple-life-journey.com/en

Check out the upcoming events for this powerful exhibition:Artist Reception Friday, August 8, 2025 - 5:30 pmArtist Talk : Saturday, August 23, 2025 - 2 pm Media Specialist Panelist Discussion - Saturday, August 30, 2025  - 2 pm Loni Harshaw is the Visual Arts Chair at Little Rock Southwest Magnet High School in Little Rock, Arkansas and is currently an Adjunct Professor at Philander Smith University, where she has taught Art Fundamentals for the past 7 years. She earned her B.S. in Visual Arts Education at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff in 2009, her M.S.E in Educational Theory and Practice from Arkansas State University- Jonesboro in 2012, and her ESOL Certification 2023. Harshaw is a proud member of the Tau Rho Zeta chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. and Lambda Nu chapter of Sigma Alpha Iota, International Music Fraternity for Women. She has been teaching for 15 years.  Harshaw is very passionate about the arts and education. She has mostly taught ART I, II, and III, Drawing I & II, Applied Art, and Art Appreciation for the Little Rock School District. She has served as an Art Facilitator for the Timmons Arts Foundation, Say It Loud! Readers and Writers, and various churches around the cities of Little Rock and North Little Rock. She has been a club sponsor and co-sponsor for several art and social justice clubs at each school she has worked. Harshaw has taught all levels of education and has taught around the world; in Boston, MA, Zanzibar, Tanzania, and Kampala, Uganda. Harshaw has helped build the Visual Arts Department at Southwest High by developing the mission and vision for the art programs, Senior Art Night, Community Art Nights, SEL Maker's Space for Faculty and Staff, and visiting Middle Schools for recruitment. She has shown her dedication to the arts, on the district and state level, by leading professional developments, serving on the Artistry in the Rock Committee, and developing the first Middle School Portfolio Day.As an Art Educator, Harshaw has chosen Art Literacy, telling and creating stories through art, as her primary mission. Her first body of art, as an emerging artist, focuses on banned book authors and is entitled “The Banned Book Series”. In this 25 piece series, she highlights authors of various ages, genres, and genders. Her professional debut was at the “Conversations with Artist Frank Frazier” as a visiting artist in December 2024. Her artwork is currently a part of the “HerSTORY & Beyond” exhibit at the Spellman Museum of Forney History in Forney, TX and the “In Search of Myself” exhibit at the ArtsXchange in East Point, GA. She will be a guest on The Finesse Media Podcast in April, 2025, where she will discuss the importance of Art Literacy. Loni Harshaw's most recent body of work is dedicated to musicians and the stories they tell. The purpose of this body of work is to spark a dialogue about each musical artist and the relevance of them being showcased together. She wants the viewers to search the musicians, listen to their music, and see how the generations have influenced the others. So often we forget about the foundation of different genres of music and how all of them are truly connected; this body of art is meant to ignite that forgotten curiosity about music, its origins, and its original story.

SILVIA RESNIK had a completely life-altering experience after a simple vacation to Zanzibar became the unexpected, seismic turning point in her life. Amidst the turquoise waters and red earth of East Africa, she met the Maasai - and everything changed. She left behind a "perfect" yet unfulfilling life in Austria and began living among the Maasai, immersing in their culture, wisdom and challenges. She fuses ancient tribal insight with powerful modern coaching to guide women back to their truth. She empowers audiences to live aligned, make soul-led decisions, and embrace authentic freedom. Her voice also champions the movement to end Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), working directly with Maasai leaders toward lasting change.

Abdulrazak Gurnah is emeritus Professor of Post-Colonial Literatures at the University of Kent and the 2021 Nobel Prize winner in Literature. Born in Zanzibar in 1948, the second of six children, Abdulrazak grew up in the dying days of the island's status as a British protectorate before independence was declared in 1963. The revolution which followed made Zanzibar an undesirable and unsafe place to live in for young men of Arab heritage. In 1967, he left to seek opportunities in Britain.He subsidised his studies through a series of low paid jobs which included strawberry picking, factory work and time as a hospital porter. In the evenings he was studying at night school and after gaining a PhD in English, he joined the University of Kent, eventually becoming a Professor.Alongside his academic career, Abdulrazak was writing and it took him twelve years to find a publisher for his 1987 debut novel, Memory of Departure.He has published ten more novels since then, including 1994's Paradise and 2001's By the Sea (short and longlisted for the Booker Prize respectively) which explore themes of exile, displacement, belonging and colonialism. He was awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Literature for his body of work and “for his uncompromising and compassionate penetration of the effects of colonialism and the fates of the refugee in the gulf between cultures and continents”. He lives in Kent, with his wife, the Guyanese-born scholar, Denise de Caires Narain.

Lubaina Himid talks to Ben Luke about her influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Himid was born 1954 in Zanzibar and lives today in Preston, UK. Her paintings, sculptures and installations are an invitation to consider marginalised figures, communities and diasporic cultures, to expand the histories that frame our worldview, and ultimately to effect change. From the 1980s, Lubaina has been both artist and organiser, a prolific collaborator, and a crucial voice in establishing a platform for Black artists and women artists in the UK and beyond. Engaging directly with historic and contemporary injustice and structural racism, while relating personal and intimate experiences and feelings, and reinterpreting and reimagining Western art history, her work is rigorously critical and yet poetic, sensuous, humorous and often joyous. She talks about the early impact of Stanley Spencer and Bridget Riley, the inexhaustible influence of William Hogarth, her curatorial work of the mid-1980s and her admiration for her peer in the Black British Arts movement Claudette Johnson. She also reflects on the influence of writers including Audre Lorde and Essex Hemphill. Plus, she gives insight into her life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Lubaina Himid with Magda Stawarska: Another Chance Encounter, Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, 12 July-2 November; Connecting Thin Black Lines, Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, 24 June-7 September.
