    Why we must back the Kurds, and Syria's political future post-Assad, with Matt Broomfield and Leila Al-Shami

    In the years since Syria’s civil war began in 2011, the country has been slowly drifting away from the mainstream media spotlight. But on 8 December, everything changed. Turkish-backed opposition forces declared Syria liberated from the 24-year rule of President Bashar al-Assad, capturing the capital Damascus in what seemed like the blink of an eye. So what does the future hold for religious and ethnic minorities in Syria? Will the Kurds realize their dream of self-governance under the defacto HTS authority? What remains of the country's political opposition and labour movements, and how can the international community support a fair and equal redistribution of power for Syrians? Matt Broomfield and Leila Al-Shami provide some answers.

    How Haiti became the 'poster child' for reparations, with Harold Isaac

    Haiti, the land of the only successful slave uprising in history, was also an experiment in neocolonialism. As the country once again makes global news headlines for all the wrong reasons, we spoke to independent journalist Harold Isaac to better understand how Haiti's complex history of colonization, slavery and its crippling ‘independence debt’ to France contributed to the crisis we’re seeing play out on our screens today. Host: Maxine Betteridge-Moes Credits: Maxine Betteridge-Moes (Producer), Amy Hall, Bethany Rielly, Conrad Landin, Nick Dowson (Co-editors), Paula Lacey (Editorial assistant), Samuel Raffnell-Williams (Sound design), Nazik Hamza (Audio Editor), Mari Fouz (Logo Design), Thomas Barlow, Impress (Media consultant) Guest: Harold Isaac (@haroldisaac) Further reading from this episode: Held to ransom: Haiti's cycle of violence (Harold Isaac in New Internationalist) Country Profile: Haiti (New Internationalist) Haiti's Lost Billions (Lazaro Gamio etl a. in The New York Times) #NI554 Debt: Which way out? #NI545 Decolonize Now For up-to-date and accurate reporting on the unfolding crisis in Haiti, Harold recommends following Jacqueline Charles (@jacquiecharles), Frantz Duval (@frantzduval) and Radio RFM (@maradiofm) No billionaires.
