  • 'The university fears us because of how little we fear them': Michigan Gaza encampment organizers demand university divest from Israel

    30 APR 2024 · At this very moment, a student-led grassroots movement is spreading throughout the country, with https://www.palestineiseverywhere.com/ going up at different college and university campuses around the country and around the world in protest of Israel’s US-funded genocidal war on Gaza and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. In what is being called the “student intifada,” students, faculty, grad students, and other campus community members are exercising civil disobedience, occupying space on campuses, defying brutal repression from administrators and police, combatting skewed and wildly lopsided narratives in corporate media, and pressuring their universities to “disclose and divest” their investments in companies and financial institutions connected to Israel.   In this urgent podcast, we take you to the frontlines of struggle and speak directly with student and grad student organizers of the Gaza encampment at the University of Michigan’s flagship campus in Ann Arbor. As the Michigan Daily, the student newspaper, https://www.michigandaily.com/news/administration/24-hours-at-the-umich-gaza-solidarity-encampment/, “The encampment was organized by the https://tahrirumich.org/, a student-led coalition of more than 80 organizations including the https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/jewishvoiceforpeaceUM/ of Jewish Voice for Peace and https://www.instagram.com/safeumich/. The encampment follows six months of student protests for the University’s divestment, which began with a https://www.michigandaily.com/news/campus-life/umich-safe-protests-president-onos-response-to-violence-in-middle-east/ at the President’s house in October. Since then, students have continuously organized protests across campus demanding the University divest from Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.” TRNN’s Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez (who is an alumnus of the University of Michigan), speaks with Salma Hamamy, an undergraduate at UM and president of https://www.instagram.com/safeumich/?hl=en (SAFE), and Ember McCoy, a graduate student worker and department organizer in the https://www.geo3550.org/ (GEO).  Studio Production: Maximillian Alvarez Post-Production: David Hebden https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support https://therealnews.com/eos-pod-subscribe https://facebook.com/therealnews https://twitter.com/therealnews https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.

  • How surgeons remotely assisted their colleagues in Gaza

    30 APR 2024 · Seven months of brutal Israeli genocide in Gaza have obliterated the local healthcare system, as the IDF has repeatedly targeted and destroyed hospitals and clinics in its military operations. When healthcare infrastructure was still standing, Gaza's healthcare workers faced the challenge of treating grave injuries requiring specialist care. To get around this issue, surgeons around the world have remotely coached their colleagues in Gaza, using messaging services like Whatsapp to lend their expertise in the treatment of particularly severe injuries. Surgeons Osaid Alser and Simon Fitzgerald join The Marc Steiner Show to discuss their experience offering this remote support to their colleagues at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis—where shortly after this recording, mass graves containing hundreds of bodies of Palestinians executed by the IDF were found.

  • The 'Women's Cut'—Maryland's only women's prison

    24 APR 2024 · For decades, prisoners' rights advocates have called on the State of Maryland to address its flagrant discrimination against prisoners housed in the state's sole women's prison. As The Real News has previously reported, https://therealnews.com/it-is-torture-women-in-marylands-prisons-have-nowhere-to-turn and the lack of resources and services dedicated to incarcerated women amounts to https://therealnews.com/how-maryland-discriminates-against-women-prisoners. Christina Merryman and Ameena Deramous, both former inmates in the MCIW—or the "Women's Cut"—join Rattling the Bars, explaining the conditions faced by incarcerated women in Maryland, and what advocates inside and outside the prison walls are doing to fight for justice, in the first half of this two-part panel.

  • Before East Palestine, there was Portsmouth

    24 APR 2024 · "Vina Colley was Erin Brockovich before Erin Brockovich," Kevin Williams wrote in a 2020 Belt Magazine article titled, "The Poisonous Legacy of Portsmouth’s Gaseous Diffusion Plant." Williams continues, "Colley has become an unlikely citizen-scientist, spending a lifetime researching and documenting PORTS and its sins... Colley was hired as an electrician at the facility in 1980 and worked there for three years. 'I was exposed to everything. We were cleaning off radioactive equipment that we did not know was radioactive. They never told us,' Colley told me. Then, she said, her hair started falling out, she developed rashes, and 'I got really sick and went to the hospital, not knowing that it was my job causing me all these problems. I had big tumors.' In the four decades since, she’s faced a range of health problems, including chronic bronchitis, tumors, and pulmonary edema." In this episode, we sit down with Colley herself to talk about growing up in Ohio during America's Cold War atomic age, her experience working as an electrician at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant, and her decades-long fight to hold the plant and the government accountable for what they've done to her, her coworkers, and her community, and to get them the compensation they deserve.
