Dave Emory - For the Record
"Conversations with Monte"
David Emory begins a new series, introducing his new co-host, Monte (or spelled Monty in some spots), a medically-retired 10+ year US military combat veteran who fought in Iraq, Afghanistan and in cross-border operations in Pakistan and elsewhere, and came out feeling that everything he was reading about that "theater of operations" was a lie. He has been researching the roots of US military involvement there and his study exposed links to same Nazi intelligence apparatus that Emory has tracked since its integration into the US national security state at the end of World War II.

Reclaim Pride March; ACT UP & JVP Protest Global Queer Rights Group’s Refusal to Denounce Gaza Genocide

2024 Reclaim Pride March
Naomi Brussel discusses the Reclaim Pride March with Jay Walker, an organizer with the group Reclaim Pride. The Reclaim Pride Coalition is the grassroots collective that has organized the Queer Liberation March in New York City every June since 2019. They seek to honor and reclaim the spirit of the Stonewall Rebellion, centering and amplifying the voices and needs of marginalized LGBTQIA2S+ communities. In the tradition of early Pride Marches, they reject corporate sponsorship and police involvement. As a community, they take to the streets to challenge systemic oppression, advocate for justice, and create a world where all queer and transgender individuals are free to live authentically and without fear.

ACT UP & JVP Protest Global Queer Rights Group’s Refusal to Denounce Gaza Genocide

John Riley interviews two guests:
Ariel Friedlander, an ACT UP organizer since 2018 and a Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) member, and Emmaia Gelman, ACT UP member since 1996, Director of the Institute for the Critical Study of Zionist and longtime Palestinian Solidarity Activist Organizer.
They discuss how ACT UP's support for the Palestinian struggle came about as a result of the genocide being committed against Palestinians and their subsequent solidarity actions pressing progressive LGBTQ+ organizations to support the Palestinian struggle and work against the genocide. ACT UP continues its work on a range of HIV/AIDS, MPOX, STDs, and other health issues.
