    Activists Resist Repression: Solidarity with Palestine

    While the U.S. continues it's war on Iran, it's simultaneously targeting protesters at home, especially those standing in Palestine. To cover the onslaught of attacks on the Palestine Solidarity Movement in the U.S., we talk to multiple guests: Alan Chavoya from the Milwaukee Alliance Against Racist and Political Repressions tells us about Salah Sarsour, president of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee and organizer with American Muslims for Palestine, who was detained by ICE in Milwaukee and the fight to free him. https://freesalah.org/ https://www.instagram.com/freesalahsarsour Shayne Tremblay interviews Conor Cauley, a Florida organizer and member of the Jacksonville Palestine Solidarity Network. Conor was arrested at a city council meeting along with fellow organizers who were guilty of nothing but standing with Palestine. https://jaxpsn.org/drop-the-charges/ https://www.instagram.com/jaxpsn Chrisley Carpio speaks on behalf of Rick Toledo, a student organizer in the Students for Democratic Society, who is facing four bogus felonies for his participation in a sit-in protest at Cal Poly Tech Humboldt. https://fightbacknews.org/articles/solidarity-with-rick-toledo-no-charges-for-standing-up-for-palestine https://www.instagram.com/sds_humboldt/ We urge our listeners to checkout the Anti-War Action Network.

    Militant Teamsters Then & Now with Ken Paff

    In the 1970s, in response to the lack of rank-and-file power in the Teamsters union, the Teamsters for a Democratic Union (TDU) reform caucus was formed with the goal of, as Ken Paff puts it, "building power from below". Ken Paff was the national organizer of TDU for most of its existence, and in this interview he discloses the history of TDU's forming, the power struggles they had with labor bureaucrats, and all that they have won for Teamsters and workers everywhere. You can find TDU online on their website, and we encourage any of our Teamster listeners to join TDU. You can reach us by email at richard.fightbackradio@gmail.com Fight Back!

    Black Liberation Confronts Racism with Kobi Guillory

    There's currently no shortage of struggle across the peoples' movements, many of which are dominating the mainstream news outlets. We want to highlight a critical struggle that is not making the headlines, and that is the fight for Black Liberation. This movement is alive and well in the US, and leaders like Kobi Guillory are on the front lines of resisting the racist Trump agenda, killers cops, and any opposition to the self-determination of Black people. Kobi is the labor chair of the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, an executive committee member of the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, a member of the Central Committee of the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, a union delegate and executive board member of the Chicago Teachers Union, and maybe the most demanding of all, a middle school teacher on the South Side of Chicago. Anyone that will be in the Chicago area on April 18th should attend the Working Class Awards Dinner: Resisting Trump's Mass Deportations. We invite all organizations to sign onto the following call, in defense of grad student Rick Toledo, pro-palestine student and member of Students for a Democratic Society, at California State Polytechnic University Humboldt.

    Labor Legend Elizabeth Gurley Flynn: The East Side Joan of Arc with Mary Anne Trasciatti

    The Fight Back! Radio team categorically condemns the shameful attacks on Iran, its people, and its sovereignty by the US and Israel. We recommend that our listeners hit the streets and join the other people of conscious calling for hands off Iran, the U.S. out of the Middle East, and an end to the Zionist project. We would also like to wish everyone a happy International Women's Day (IWD). Our guest today, Mary Anne Trasciatti helps us celebrate IWD by commemorating the life and legacy Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, a legend of the labor movement.

    No Ceasefire to be Seen: The Continued Fight for a Free Palestine with Husam Marajda

    Since the ceasefire agreement in October of 2025, we've seen Israel commit daily bombings, blocking of aid, the withholding of hostages and bodies of martyrs, and no sign of giving up their genocidal agenda. We're honored to be joined by Husam Marajda, co-chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN), to unpack the current situation. Husam provides us with his analysis of the so-called "ceasefire", describes the current conditions in Gaza and the Arab world more broadly, and spells out what the continued fight for a free Palestine looks like, both domestically and abroad. To our Palestinian and Arab listeners that live in the U.S. and who want to join the fight for a Free Palestine, we urge you to join the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN). USPCN is a Palestinian and Arab community-based organization, founded in 2006 to revitalize grass-roots organizing in Palestinian and Arab communities in the U.S., as part of the broader Palestinian nation in exile and the homeland.
