THE LAND IN OUR BONES
Dark o Moon – before New Moon and Ramadan… Land Sovereignty….
Weaving guiding myth with Fund Drive show, honoring The Land in Our Bones: Plantcestral Herbalism and Healing Cultures from Syria to the Sinai by Layla K Feghali…
also learning about, and dedicating to composting, the planned illegal sale of West Bank property in NJ and NY synagogues…
In The Land in Our Bones, Lebanese ethnobotanist, sovereignty steward, and cultural worker Layla K Feghali offers a layered history of the healing plants of Cana’an (the Levant) and the Crossroads (“Middle East”) and explores ways we become free from the wounds of colonization and displacement. Recounting vivid stories, Feghali shares lineages of folk healing and eco-cultural stewardship — including those passed down by matriarchs, plants and practices of prenatal and postpartum care, mystical traditions for spiritual healing, earth-based practices for emotional wellness, plant tending for bioregional regeneration, medicinal plants and herbal protocols, cultural remedies and recipes, and more.
Edited down as this was a KPFA fund drive episode with extensive pitching by Caroline Casey and Laura Privas.

Grayzone Radio with Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate’
Part 1: The Genocide Democrats: Max Blumenthal speaks at WNDC
At the Woman's National Democratic Club in Washington DC on March 7, 2024, The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal discussed the crisis within the Democratic Party as the party grassroots revolts against President Joe Biden's vehement support for Israel's rampage in the besieged Gaza Strip, where at least 30,000 have been killed to date - mostly women and children.
Blumenthal points the finger at the Democratic Party establishment for crushing any and all iterations of antiwar politics, and illustrates how its most prominent figures have been bought off by the Israel lobby.
Part 2: Assange's brother: "Julian could receive the death penalty" if extradited
The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal interviews Gabriel Shipton, film producer and brother of Julian Assange, during his latest visit to Washington DC, where he was pushing lawmakers to oppose the Biden administration's prosecution of the jailed Wikileaks publisher.

The Final Straw Radio
This week, featuring three segments. First up, you’ll hear a chat with organizers of the 2024 Heart of the Valley Anticapitalist Bookfair which ran its first iteration in Corvallis, Oregon from January 19-21st. A zine of their experiences will appear on that blog soon.
Then, you’ll hear a brief segment updating listeners on the conspiracy case against six anarchists and antifascists in Russia known as the Tyumen case (for where it initiated). The six anarchists, some of whom barely knew each other, were tortured into confessions of conspiracy to further anarchist ideology and damage the Russian war machine. Transcription at our website
Finally, we spoke with Aster, a European anarchist involved in the counter-surveillance and anti-repression project known as the No Trace Project which works to share information about known methods and cases of state surveillance. The project does this in order to improve and expand our collective knowledge, tools and abilities at evading state crackdowns as we organize and act. This interview was conducted via encrypted messages and Aster's portion is being read by an unrelated volunteer. Transcript at our website

Millions Mobilize for Palestine
Millions of people took to the streets around the world on March 2nd in solidarity with the people of Gaza as Israel is reportedly preparing an invasion of Rafah later this week, just before the start of Ramadan. In New York City, Havana, Albuquerque, Caracas, British Columbia, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul and beyond, the massive day of mobilization shows that the movement against the Israeli genocide in Palestine will not slow down until the attacks are over.
Even the Democratic Party is being forced to shift its rhetoric in the face of mounting pressure, though it remains steadfast in its support for Israel. Biden’s recent statements about increasing aid to Gaza, and Kamala Harris’ comment that we need an “immediate cease-fire for at least six weeks” come while the U.S. continues to veto ceasefire resolutions in the UN. But new surveys show that more than two thirds of the people in the U.S. support the call for a permanent ceasefire and de-escalation of violence.
And in a brand new Center for Economic and Policy Research/YouGov study, 62 percent of respondents who voted for President Biden in 2020 agree with the statement, “The U.S. should stop weapons shipments to Israel until Israel discontinues its attacks on the people of Gaza.”
We’re joined by Miriam Osman, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement.

Sprouts: Josephine Baker: The Spy Who Hid in Plain Sight
During WWII, the glamorous entertainer, Josephine Baker, worked as a spy for the French Resistance, while “hiding in plain sight” as a renowned night club performer and recording artist. Ursula Ruedenberg, head of the Pacifica affiliates unit, talks with author Christopher Klein about Josephine Baker's course from humble beginnings to international superstardom, and her unexpected turn in aiding the war effort against the Nazis. Sprouts revived this episode for Black History Month, but it certainly applies for Women’s History Month as well. Baker was a Black expatriate from the US, who renounced her citizenship and became French. She won the Croix de Guerre for her wartime exploits with the Resistance.

Water and Power
Robert Lundahl interview biologist and botanist Pat Flanagan, following up on last week’s episode about Cadiz. Water and Power tackles 10 years of solar development in the desert and its ever-expanding water usage profile in addition to a comparison and contrast with the Cadiz Inc. operation, examples of encroachment and settler disruption of Indigenous cultural norms and practices. Produced by Robert Lundahl and Tracker Ginamarie Rangel Quinone.
Several springs in the Mojave Trails National Monument are connected to an underground aquifer being drawn upon for a water marketing scheme. Meanwhile, on the surface, lands graded for Utility Scale Solar, located on pristine desert require massive amounts of water to "tamp down" sand and dust that have buried homes in Daggett and other rural communities.
Springs are sacred to the Chemehuevi and Paiute peoples. Bighorn sheep and other protected species depend on these remote springs for life and habitation. Pat gives us the dirt on the development of these remote and beautiful natural ecological treasures. Individual rain fed springs exist in a water cycle of evaporative transpiration potentially disrupted by Cadiz Inc.'s "billion dollar" water for profit plan.
Water and power are "gold" in California
