Solidarity, Spirituality and Liberatory Promise on a Turtles Back
Sharing words from anarchist, author, organizer and former participant in the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army, Ashanti Omowali Alston, in the key note address at the 2024 Another Carolina Anarchist Bookfair in so-called Asheville. The presentation was entitled Solidarity, Spirituality and Liberatory Promise on a Turtle's Back.
From the ACAB website:
"Trusting in solidarity, the mysterium of spirituality, and a promise from god knows where," a where that at this historical moment, might just be Palestine. What does it mean TO BE in the midst of all this right now? RIGHT NOW!
M. Ashanti Alston is a revolutionary Black nationalist, anarchist, abolitionist, speaker, writer, elder motivator. A long-time member of The Jericho Movement, he is presently an advisory board member of the National Jericho Movement and co-founding board member of the Center for Grassroots Organizing (Vermont land project). He continues giving talks and writing inspirational analyses concerning the dismantling of the myriad oppressive regimes in which we find ourselves enmeshed.
Ashanti is one of the few former members of the Black Panther Party who identifies as an anarchist in the tradition of ancestor Kwesi Balagoon (BPP & BLA). He developed abolitionist politics in the early years of Critical Resistance. He has helped save the life of a baby pig with animal liberationists, learned depth-queer politics from being challenged, and wants to see non-ego eldership partaking through sincerely loving the younger generations who truly want to CARRY IT ON.

"Bodies Outside of Unjust Laws" Coalition Protest Outside of Democrat's Convention
In the run up to this years Democratic convention, some outlets predicted that Chicago may have a repeat of the 1968 Democratic convention where police rioted and beat protesters.
While some media outlets feared student and activist outrage over the Gaza genocide would lead to a chaotic protest situation similar to the anger created by the Johnson/Humphrey administration conduct of the Vietnam war in 1968 it didn't. Protests against the war on the Palestinians occurred last week, they werent well covered by the mainstream media. Joining us to discuss last weeks protests is Andy Thayer of the Gay Liberation Network. He was co-organizer of the "Bodies Outside of Unjust Laws" coalition's March.

This week's show features stories from NHK Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, and Radio Havana Cuba.
From JAPAN- 13 years after the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima power plant, the first attempt to remove 880 tons of highly radioactive fuel debris has been suspended. Foreign and defense ministers of Japan and India met to review their joint declaration on security cooperation. Italy brought its aircraft carrier to Japan, joining many other European warships for joint drills in the south China Sea. The US and South Korea started a joint military exercise to deter and defend against a nuclear attack in the area. Russia says it shot down 11 Ukrainian drones over the outskirts of Moscow, and 34 in other parts of Russia. Iran's parliament has approved all cabinet appointments under the new President Pezeshkian who wants to improve relations with the west. Biden and Harris spoke with Netanyahu this week to motivate signing a ceasefire agreement, while also sending another aircraft carrier to the Middle East.

From GERMANY- As the ceasefire talks continue, so does the daily bombing in Gaza. An interview with an Egyptian journalist, Karim Al-Gawhary, about the talks. He says that the sticking points are Israel insisting on a continued military presence in Gaza, and continuing the war in the future. Palestine is opposed to these demands. Moves to tax the world's extremely wealthy have taken hold in several countries, like Spain, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark- Their ultra-rich have not moved elsewhere, according to the Tax Justice Network.

From CUBA- The government of Nicaragua has condemned the interventionist actions of the US program NED, that is the National Endowment for Democracy. The President Petro of Colombia has banned the export of coal to Israel as punishment for its war on Palestine. The EU warned of the humanitarian crisis in Palestine, where individuals and groups attempting to aid the civilians are under attack. The government of Scotland has suspended all meetings with the Israeli regime ambassadors, demanding an immediate ceasefire in Palestine. http://www.outfarpress.com/shortwave.shtml

Everything old is new again. These are visions of a future from almost 75 years in the past. It's too bad we can't find a radio dramatization of Robert Heinlein's prophetic "The Man Who Sold the Moon" about the privatization and corporatization of space, given that we are now living that reality with Space X, Boeing and privatized war profiteers making headlines with their space efforts, and the reality, mostly obscured by the corporate media, that they are connected to the US Space Force and the militarization of low earth orbits and near space.
People are probably aware of the US astronauts stranded in space in a Boeing capsule. Here's a little news from Elon Musk's real life space efforts:
Rocket Mishaps For Bezos’ Blue Origin
By Nick Wingfield Source: Bloomberg
Blue Origin, the space startup owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, suffered two accidents in recent weeks to New Glenn, a giant new rocket the company is aiming to launch for the first time by the end of the year.
According to Bloomberg, the upper portion of a New Glenn rocket crumpled into itself while being transported around Blue Origin’s facility in Cape Canaveral, Florida. In a separate incident, another upper stage of a New Glenn rocket exploded during a test, Bloomberg reported.
For the maiden launch of New Glenn, Blue Origin is planning to carry two spacecraft for a NASA research mission to Mars. According to Bloomberg, the company is roughly targeting that launch for two months from now because Mars will be close enough to Earth to complete the mission. A Blue Origin spokesperson told Bloomberg that the company is still on track to launch New Glenn this year.

Gay Climate Activist Faces Potential 7 Years in Prison; also Troubling Transphobia at the 2024 Olympics
Out-FM's Bob Lederer interviews John Mark Rozendaal, a 63-year-old gay man active with the national anti-fossil fuels group Extinction Rebellion, of which he is a core New York City organizer. On July 18, Rozendaal and Alec Connon, Executive Director of Stop the Money Pipeline, both of whom had participated in past nonviolent protests at Citibank's headquarters, were served with restraining orders intended to prevent them from returning to Citibank and attempting to suppress their right to protest. Despite this, on August 8, Rozendaal, an accomplished cellist, performed in the public plaza outside Citibank's Lower West Side HQ, wearing a Palestinian kaffiyeh. When 14 colleagues encircled him, the NYPD arrested all of them and then arrested Rozendaal and Connon on a criminal contempt charge. Both now face up to 7 years in prison.
These actions are part of the "Summer of Heat on Wall Street" campaign demanding that Citibank divest from fossil fuels, which has led to 500 arrests for nonviolent actions thus far. The July protests at which Rozendaal and Connon were arrested particularly highlighted Citibank's direct support for U.S. militarism, including the Gaza genocide. Corporate media has virtually ignored the campaign and the repression. In the Out-FM interview, Rozendaal discusses the reasons for this campaign and the connections he sees as a gay man between queer liberation, climate justice, and an end to imperialist wars.

Women Boxing Their Way Through Troubling Transphobia at the 2024 Olympics

July 26 marked the 34th anniversary of the signing of the Americans With Disabilities Act. But is the ADA as far-reaching as it should be? And are the large disability-rights organizations keeping too close to the country's ruling institutions, so that they defeat their own professed objectives? In the first segment of the show, Eleanor's guests talk about the limitations of the ADA, and the inherent
lapses that disability-rights groups make by not confronting the institutions that inflict disabilities, and worsen the lives of those already living with disabilities, most notably in Gaza.
In the second half of the show, is the prospect of humans inhabiting Mars a harmless sci-fi concept or are "astro-colonial" ideas a distraction from the urgency of addressing the climate crisis on planet Earth?
Jen Deerinwater and Ezra Star are members of Disability Divest (www.disabilitydivest.org), a collective that demands that "the disability establishment ends its relationships with war profiteers."

Psychedelics and the Singularity
David Jay Brown is the author of Dreaming Wide Awake: Lucid Dreaming, Shamanic Healing and Psychedelics; and of The New Science of Psychedelics: At the Nexus of Culture, Consciousness, and Spirituality. He is also the coauthor of Women of Visionary Art and five other bestselling volumes of interviews with leading-edge thinkers: Mavericks of the Mind; Voices from the Edge; Conversations on the Edge of the Apocalypse; Mavericks of Medicine; and Frontiers of Psychedelic Consciousness. Hes the author of two science fiction novels and his new book is Psychedelics and the Coming Singularity. We talk about the brilliant and cutting edge thinkers he's interviewed over the past 30 years.
In this interview we talk about the experience of DMT, a powerful psychedelic that is the active substance in Ayahuasca, but is also available through smoking in powder form, and the venom of the bufo toad, each with different and profound effects. And how it tends to awaken a new broader ecological awareness in most people, that may be the only hope we have of surviving our unfolding climate crisis.
We talk about artificial intelligence and the singularity, and the idea of living in a simulation and how this idea has been around for thousands of years in different ways. We talk about what happens after we die and the nature of God
