This Week with David Rovics Podcast

If I do an interview, whether as the interviewer or interviewee, or a livestream event, new song, or various other things, it’ll often go out as a podcast.

    Canadian Cancellations

    If there were any press outlets interested in covering the trials and tribulations of a little-known traveling musician trying to sing any songs about Palestine without having people try to cancel his gigs, what might that coverage look like?

    New song: "Aysenur"

    Israeli settlers began a new campaign to steal more of the land from the people of the town of Beita, Palestine, in 2021. Turkish-American ISM activist Aysenur Ezgi Eygi was the 17th protester to be killed by Israeli troops in Beita since 2021.

    Summer Podcasts 2024

    Over the course of the summer I wrote a bunch of things, but didn't make audio versions of most of it.  Here's everything I missed, in one fell swoop, interspersed with appropriate songs.  The following segments are the order in which I recorded them, and the order in which they were published on Substack, and in the case of "I Survived Chicago," on Counterpunch as well. Reflections on Singing for Wikileaks Don't Shoot, Organize! Notes from a Month in Australia I Survived Chicago Seegerism -- and the War Against It Downtown Portland and the Screaming Silence

    "Section 12 (Do You Support the Resistance?)" REMIX

    My very prolific musical collaborator, Chet Gardiner, has come up with a very appropriately sinister backdrop for this song, which is the first of two songs I wrote after the arrest of Palestine solidarity organizer and influencer, Sarah Wilkinson, in England at the end of August. Like the other song on the subject ("On the Streets of London"), this song is not just about Sarah's ordeal, but all the other journalists who have been getting arrested by Keir Starmer's balaclava-wearing Mossad thugs.

    "On the Streets of London" REMIX

    Sarah Wilkinson's outrageous and also impossible bail conditions have been dropped, due to popular pressure, but Keir Starmer's balaclava-clad Mossad thugs are still on the loose in England, terrorizing journalists. Here's Chet Gardiner's brilliant new remix of "On the Streets of London," the song I wrote a few days ago about this stark reality.

    New song: "On the Streets of London (Free Sarah Wilkinson)"

    Sarah Wilkinson was brutally arrested and her home ransacked. Now she's under house arrest, prohibited from using phones or other devices, awaiting the possibility of further persecution under the extremely anti-democratic Section 12 of the 2000 Terrorism Act in England.   This is a song about how you can be brutally abducted and charged with ridiculous offenses right now in modern-day England, on those lovely old and occasionally still cobblestoned streets of London. Sarah is only one of a number of journalists and others to be charged under this outrageous law, by the New Labor government.
