    Report from Hurricane Helene Recovery Efforts in Asheville

    Listen to story: https://ia600100.us.archive.org/33/items/2024-10-08-RUWS/2024_10_08_Lauren_Steiner.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 28:46) FEATURING LAUREN STEINER - Hurricane Helene has wrought untold devastation across several Southeastern states, and is the deadliest to have hit the United States since Hurricane Katrina in 2005. So far more than 200 people are confirmed dead and the estimated damage could be as high as $200 billion worth.  Among the hardest hit areas is Asheville, North Carolina whose water system has been devastated, where hundreds of thousands remain without power or internet access, and where a thriving arts district has been severely flooded. To make matters worse, Donald Trump and his billionaire backer Elon Musk have fueled wild conspiracy theories, in part based on their continued demonization of undocumented immigrants.

    A Progress 2025 Vision of Climate Justice

    Listen to story: https://ia800100.us.archive.org/33/items/2024-10-08-RUWS/2024_10_08_AntoniaJuhasz.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 23:04) FEATURING ANTONIA JUHASZ - As Southeastern U.S. communities reel from the devastation of Hurricane Helene and as Florida braces for the potentially catastrophic Hurricane Milton, the impacts of climate change are more apparent than ever.  In this context, the climate-related goals of the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 are more significant than ever. Project 2025 aims to cut the size and scope of federal agencies including the Environmental Protection Agency, the National Weather Service, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, claiming they have infiltrated the federal government and are “one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry.” It calls for the U.S. to withdraw from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change so the U.S. wouldn’t need to track, report, or reduce emissions.  An August 2024 study determined that if all of the document’s climate-related recommendations were implemented, the U.S. would spew an additional 2.7 billion tons of climate-heating emissions into the atmosphere by 2030.  This post is for subscribers only Subscribe now Already have an account?

    A Progress 2025 Vision of Educational Justice

    Listen to story: https://ia600100.us.archive.org/33/items/2024-10-08-RUWS/2024_10_15_IbramXKendi.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 20:29) FEATURING IBRAM X KENDI - The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 takes severe aim at the U.S. educational system by targeting public education and students of color, LGBTQ students, and low-income students. The project’s authors also aim to eliminate the Department of Education and roll back federal protections and funding for students with disabilities, transgender and nonbinary students, and low-income students. In the face of privatization, rising student debt, book bans, the infiltration of Christian nationalism in schools, attacks on accurate history education and more, what would a progressive vision of education in the U.S. look like? Dr. Ibram X Kendi, National Book Award-winning best-selling author and Boston University professor helped to answer that question.

    California Ballot Measure Worsens Over Incarceration

    Listen to story: https://ia904509.us.archive.org/11/items/2024-10-01-RUWS/2024_10_01_Dortell_Williams.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 23:30) FEATURING DORTELL WILLIAMS - For years, the state of California has struggled with overcrowded jails and prisons. From the Three Strikes law, to life sentences without parole, California, according to the Vera Institute, is “one of the epicenters of mass incarceration in the United States.” After years of activism by abolitionist organizers, California voters in 2014 passed Proposition 47, which reduced some penalties on some offenses.  This year, law enforcement and big retailers are joining forces to back a new ballot measure this November called Proposition 36, which would undo Proposition 47.   This post is for subscribers only Subscribe now Already have an account?

    A Progress 2025 Vision of Race and Policing

    Listen to story: https://ia904509.us.archive.org/11/items/2024-10-01-RUWS/2024_10_01_AngelicaChazaro.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 17:30) FEATURING ANGÉLICA CHÁZARO - The rightwing Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 justifies the racist impact of policing by empowering the Department of Justice to focus on violent crime, in spite of the fact that violent crime has fallen dramatically. Its authors denounce criminal justice reform efforts, and promote federal oversight of jurisdictions where police divestment efforts have had some success.  The “tough-on-crime” approach has champions both among Republicans and Democrats, in spite of the fact that in 2020, many elites claiming to support racial justice vowed changes to violent policing in the wake of George Floyd’s murder in Minneapolis.  What would a progressive vision of racial justice and policing look like? There has been for decades an active movement to divest from policing with an eye toward abolishing police and prisons altogether. That movement offers some answers to the question.

    A Progressive Vision of Anticolonialism and Sovereignty

    Listen to story: https://ia904509.us.archive.org/11/items/2024-10-01-RUWS/2024_10_01_NickTilsen.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 21:35) FEATURING NICK TILSEN - The rightwing extremist Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 argues that too much public land is not being used to its full potential and should be sold to private interests for development and fossil fuel extraction. The authors want to strengthen the U.S. military and call for increasing the army’s budget in order to “defend our nation’s sovereignty, borders, and bounty against global threats.” They also back increasing investment in weapons development and expanding nuclear arsenals. What would a progressive vision of sovereignty look like? As climate catastrophes such as Hurricane Helene in the U.S. and Europe’s historic flooding damage communities, and as Israel with U.S. help is carrying out a genocide in Gaza and expanding its war into Lebanon and Yemen, how are Indigenous communities expressing what’s most needed to ensure sovereignty and justice?

    Ending “Death by Incarceration”

    Listen to story: https://ia800409.us.archive.org/30/items/2024-09-24-RUWS/2024_09_24_PardissKebriaei.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 18:20) FEATURING PARDISS KEBRIAEI - The Pennsylvania Supreme Court in early October will hear arguments in an important case that could have national implications. The case seeks to end mandatory life in prison without parole–what many refer to as “death by incarceration”--sentences for felony murder. The plaintiff in the case is one Derek Lee who is serving a life sentence without parole for a felony murder conviction. Except that he never killed anyone, nor intended to kill. Pennsylvania has mandatory life without parole sentencing for people involved in felony murders whether or not they are directly culpable–and practice that disproportionately impacts Black Americans.  This post is for subscribers only Subscribe now Already have an account?

    Progress 2025 Vision for Voting Rights

    Listen to story: https://ia600409.us.archive.org/30/items/2024-09-24-RUWS/2024_09_24_CliffAlbright.mp3Download: mp3 (Duration: 16:28) FEATURING CLIFF ALBRIGHT - Donald Trump and the GOP have for years made wild claims about widespread voter fraud–as cover for stripping people of their voting rights and engaging in voter intimidation. From Florida governor Ron DeSantis’ election police arresting Black voters to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s recent raids on Latino civil rights activists, conservatives appear afraid of democracy.  The ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 promotes targeting election workers in multiple states, casts doubt on the legitimacy of mail-in ballots, and continues the decades-long quest to undo the civil rights movement’s voting gains, including eliminating the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division, which has been at the forefront of bringing lawsuits against counties and states that violate voting rights statutes.  What would a progressive vision of voting rights look like instead? As part of YES! Magazine’s new initiative, Progress 2025, we turn today to Cliff Albright. This post is for subscribers only Subscribe now Already have an account? Sign in
