    Palestinians are counting lentils, as Gaza food crisis worsens

    Nearly half a million people in Gaza now face starvation, according to a new report from the IPC, the international panel of famine experts who advise the United Nations. For more than ten weeks, Israel has halted the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza, to pressure Hamas to release Israeli hostages. Israel accuses Hamas of seizing aid, selling it on the black market and using aid distribution to reinforce its control of Gaza. The UN says hundreds of truckloads of lifesaving supplies are waiting at the border. Meanwhile, inside Gaza, food is scarce. Humanitarian groups like the UN World Food Programme (WFP) exhausted supplies of basic staples weeks ago, forcing them to shut down their kitchens and bakeries, and everyday Palestinians are grinding up pasta and lentils to make flour for bread. Antoine Renard of the WFP says when he was in Gaza last week, wheat flour was selling for $10 a pound. Juana Summers talks with Renard about what he's seen in Gaza, and what's next for the people there.

    What the Supreme Court's birthright-citizenship case is really about

    A case before the Supreme Court about birthright citizenship could have larger ramifications for the limits of judicial power. Maureen Groppe with USA Today has the story. Trump says he’s getting a free luxury aircraft from Qatar’s royal family — but it's actually far from it. And the announcement has prompted political backlash from both sides of the aisle. The Washington Post’s Hannah Knowles unpacks how a Pennsylvania manufacturing hub is responding to Trump’s tariff policy. Plus, highly anticipated Russia-Ukraine talks are happening today but Putin is nowhere to be seen. Healthy and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Congress "I don't think people should be taking medical advice from me." And how alcohol can harm women’s bodies. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

    Small Towns Are Getting Hooked on ICE Detention

    Like a growing number of US communities, Torrance County, New Mexico, is convinced its financial survival depends on locking immigrants up. A lucrative ICE contract keeps a private detention facility open that local politicians say the area needs. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg reporters Rachel Adams-Heard and Fola Akinnibi examine how these private facilities are becoming key to the US government’s immigration crackdown – and the financial incentives making it harder for small communities to quit them.  Read more: Addicted to ICE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • What does a reporter do when they receive a cold call from one of the most horrific serial killers in Canadian history? The killer: Clifford Olson, who murdered at least eleven children in the 1980s. The reporter: Arlene Bynon, who recorded her jailhouse calls with Olson for years. Alongside legendary journalist Peter Worthington, Arlene spent hundreds of hours on the phone with Olson. It was kept secret from his prison guards; he wasn't allowed to speak to the media. In Calls From a Killer, from CBC’s Uncover, Arlene unearths secrets that have been buried for decades.  Secrets about Olson's crimes, about how police failed his young victims and their families — and why law enforcement paid a psychopathic serial killer $100,000.  With Nathaniel Frum — Peter's grandson — Arlene exposes hard truths about a forgotten tragedy, a bungled investigation, the loved ones left behind, and the mind of a killer.  About UNCOVER: Crime. Investigation. Revelation. Uncover brings you explosive, high-caliber true crime year-round. From CIA mind control to serial abuse, mysterious disappearances to wrongful imprisonment. Each season features a new host who is deeply connected to the story, committed to tracking down the truth. With over 30 seasons to choose from, Uncover represents the best in true crime.

    There’s More to Accessibility than WCAG

    WCAG is the most globally used and commonly understood set of accessibility guidelines used by organisations to ensure the accessibility of websites, apps and other digital comms for people with disabilities. It’s the yard stick by which the accessibility of digital products is usually measured. However, while it is brilliant in many areas, there are many elements of accessibility and needs of people with disabilities that the current version of WCAG (2.2) doesn’t adequately cover. WCAG 3.0 will expand into some of these in the future. But how do you bring that future into the work you’re doing right now, especially when regulations require you address the needs of people that WCAG overlooks? This webinar will help you do that, covering: Why are people so fixated on WCAG? What are its strengths?Where does it fall short? And what benefits do you get from going beyond it?Is WCAG 3.0 going to save us? And when can we expect it to be available?Going beyond WCAG because it’s not enough for your product – for mobile apps, VR, print media, kiosks and ATMsGoing beyond WCAG because it’s not enough for your users – for neurodivergent and older peopleGoing beyond WCAG because its assumptions don’t hold for your users – writing text at the right reading age for your users, and handling the impact of digital literacyGoing beyond WCAG by doing your own user research to identify your users’ needs, and how to use those insights to guide you. This audio was originally recorded as a webinar. You can access the video recording of the webinar, and its transcript, here: https://www.hassellinclusion.com/webinars/theres-more-to-accessibility-than-wcag/ Access it for free by registering on HiHub (https://www.hassellinclusion.com/webinars/) will also give you access to recordings of all our past webinars, and keep you updated on upcoming webinars.
