12 AM

Creative FRONTLINE from Robert Lundahl and Tracker Ginamarie Rangel Quinone

Robin Carneed – Finding Her Way Home

Robin Carneen was a California State Parks Ranger, whose mother told her she is Native American. She did not, however know what tribe, only that it ends with “ish.” The story Robin tells about “Finding Her Way Home” is a multi-layered experience of self-discovery and change she graciously shares with KPFK listeners. Very powerful discourse on climate, identity, community, environment, human rights and finally the dangers of extractivism, geothermal, and earthquakes from fracking.

Project Censored

Battling Censorship, Propaganda and Nuclear Colonialism

In the first half of the show, journalist Alan MacLeod joins Eleanor Goldfield to discuss his personal battle against censorship as well as the ways in which corporate media work to propagandize the public to support Israel. He also outlines the attempts of a small group of Neocons to connect everything, including October 7th, to Iran so as to push the US ever closer to yet another war in the middle east. Next up, Leona Morgan, Dine anti-nuclear agitator joins the show to outline the current and historic fight of her people against nuclear colonialism. Leona explains the myriad ways in which the US government fails and tricks Indigenous communities and how new mines, including one in the Grand Canyon, could move forward thanks to massive loopholes in legislation supposedly meant to ban new uranium mining in the region.



Alan MacLeod is Senior Staff Writer at Mint Press News, and a frequent guest on the Project Censored Show. He’s also the author of the 2018 book Bad News from Venezuela. Leona Morgan is a Diné (“Navajo”) anti-nuclear organizer. Haul No! Was co-founded by Sarana Riggs, Leona Morgan, and (our yáázh) the late Klee Benally.

Equal Rights and Justice with Mimi Rosenberg from sister station WBAI

Dr. Atif Kubursi, professor of Economics who has served at several United Nations agencies, does a brilliant job of analyzing the socio-economic forces behind both the emptying of Gaza and its leveling to further the colonialist aspirations and projects to exploit the natural resources of Gaza, such as natural gas. The hegemonic interests of the US in facilitating the Zionist regime’s destruction of Gaza are examined as well – blocking China’s Belt and road expansion and other Sourth West Asian development and growing Chinese influence in the area. Israel and the US are aiming towards the building of the “Ben Gurion Canal,” long awaited and planned since the 60s to upend the Suez Canal.
