Green & Red: Podcasts for Scrappy Radicals Green and Red

In March, dozens of anti-genocide activists took action at the Boeing facility in Heath, OH. Five were arrested and are being prosecuted for their non-violent action.

Boeing is the second largest weapons manufacturer in the world. They’ve been a top manufacturer of missiles and munitions delivered to Israel in its ongoing genocide against Palestinians. Boeing has also been in the news over its poor oversight of commercial aircraft production.

In the latest episode, we talk with Jordan and Prince Shakur (@prshakur) with the Dugout podcast about the action and Boeing’s role in the genocide in Gaza.

In a landmark case in Florida, a federal jury has ordered Chiquita Brands International to pay over $38 million in damages to the families of eight Colombian men who were killed by paramilitaries the banana giant funded.

This is part of a long bloody history that goes beyond this one incident or Chiquita itself.

In our latest episode, Scott talks with Colombian trade unionist Guillermo Andres Mosquera Miranda and Dr. Rodrigo Acuña about Chiquita’s loss in court and its bloody history of American corporations hiring death squads in Colombia. Most importantly, they discuss Guillermo’s own experience organizing in Colombia and being targeted by right wing paramilitaries to the point where he and his family have been forced to flee the country.

Cop City still remains an ongoing struggle. After the 2023 assassination of forest defender Tortuguita by the Georgia police, environmental and social justice organizers began to campaign hard on the issue. The state responded with a harsh backlash that has resulted in a multitude of charges that includes domestic terrorism and at least 61 people being included on a criminal RICO case.

In our latest, Scott talks with one of the Stop Cop City defendants, Priscilla Grim (@priscillagrim). They discuss the campaign against Cop City, her time in jail and how state persecution has effected her life.

A cherished coastal preserve is under attack by the campus administration that was appointed last year by Governor DeSantis in the right-wing takeover underway at New College of Florida. The new administration wants to tear down this small tree preserve, home to Osprey and other wildlife, supposedly for a sports facility. Local resistance has been building to resist the "development" project at Bayfront Uplands Preserve.

In our latest, Scott talks with local organizer Jinx Ashforth about the right wing take over of New College of Florida, and the fight over the Uplands Preserve.

Jinx Ashforth (2001-2005) is the author/artist of New College's first graphic novel thesis, and is currently creating a new one on the effects of the Takeover on our unique community. Jinx also has been involved in the Save New College campaign and the Save Uplands campaign

Within the past four decades, we’ve seen the rise of neo-liberalism, or so-called "Free Trade," free trade agreements and various other treaties and agreements that reduce and eliminate barriers and regulation for capital to invest in different nation states. While there has been some resistance, capital and investments march on. Corporations and investors have created tools such as "international investment treaties (IITs)" to continue their profit-making ventures. These treaties result in litigation that can undermine, environmental, human rights and labor protections. This is particularly important as the world is gripped in a climate crisis and regulations on carbon emissions, human rights, and fossil fuel extraction are vital.

In our latest we talk with the director of Columbia's Center on Sustainable Investment (@CCSI_Columbia) Lisa Sachs about IITs and the legal tools corporations use to settle disputes with national governments when regulation gets in the way.

bio//
Lisa Sachs is the Director of the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment. She is a globally recognized expert in the ways that laws, policies and business practices shape global investment flows and affect sustainable development. She works with governments around the world, regional and international development organizations, financial institutions, companies, civil society organizations and academic centers to understand the inter-relations of investment flows and sustainable development, and to influence investment policies and practices to promote the SDGs and the Paris Agreement.

With the recent news about Noam Chomsky's condition and absence from public life, and the outpouring of respect and admiration from so many people who have learned so much from him (along with the typical
haters), we got together to discuss what he's mean and what he's contributed to us on the Left.

We discussed his contributions in the fields of linguistics and knowledge, and media analysis. Then we discussed his advocacy of free expression . . . he believed that we had to defend all rights to free speech, even if uttered by someone we disagree with. Next we talked about his important work in describing the way liberals really acted,
especially w/ regard to their war in Vietnam. We also discussed one of the areas where his work has been most important, and overlapped w/ one of our favorite topics on Green & Red--the dangers to the left of embracing conspiracy theories and the "deep state," especially with
regard to the JFK assassination. And finally we covered his ideas of "intellectual self-defense" and the importance of telling everyone the truth against the propaganda of people in power.
