Steal This Radio 104 Bailing out the Banks and Billionaires -- Mitchel Cohen looks at the record profits of the major Wall Street banks in 2009 under Obama (just as it was under Bush). Mitchel also calls for the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY, to throw out former pitching great Jim Bunning, now U.S. Senator from Kentucky who tried fillibustered against extension of unemployment insurance and Medicare, while supporting the trillions to the banks. The Democrats could have defeated his fillibuster, but the Democrats caved .... as usual .... and voted billions, again, to continue the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's all a shell game.
Also hear "Thanks to the Banks -- Getaway" by Long Islander Brian O'Haire;
AND, Mitchel Cohen continues his inquiries into "Zen-Marxism", and what do we mean by "Direct Action"? .... Tune in, a GREAT and provocative show!
Steal This Radio 103 Mitchel Cohen outlines the ideas in his work of many years, "Zen-Marxism". Distributed over 17 pamphlets, this is the first time that he has explored Zen-Marxism on radio, and what does he mean by his main ideas: "UnAsk," "Reframe," and "Direct Action," which he claims are needed in cohering communities of resistance and nurturance.
How do people come to (and change) their consciousness? If we are robots manufactured (emotionally, psychologically, morally) by the society we grow up in, how is it possible to even learn that about ourselves, let alone change it? What was the theory of the New Left, behind the political action and great music?
Mitchel takes a look at his own early life here, growing up in Brooklyn, the early years at the State University of New York at Stony Brook which gave rise to the Independent Caucus of SDS and the Red Balloon Collective, and the relationship of such theorists as Herbert Marcuse and Fredy Perlman, among others, to our movements.
Please add your comments on the website, too!
Steal This Radio 102 Mitchel Cohen's article, "Toxic Wastes and Haiti," is the topic of this week's show. We also discuss the misrepresentation in the U.S. media of Cuba's very important role in saving lives in Haiti, with over 900 medical personnel that Cuba has sent to that country. Mitchel Cohen also recites his poem for Daniel Simidor and Dennis Brutus -- heros of our movements who died (and Howard Zinn, too) within the last few months. Songs performed by Harry Belafonte, Judy Collins.
Steal This Radio 101 Mitchel Cohen interviews Professor of Anthropology Chaia Heller (Mt. Holyoke) about Social Ecology, Anarchism and Feminism. Chaia discusses Global Climate Change movements, her close friendship with Murray Bookchin, and her forthcoming book on the new peasant movement in France. Also, listen anew to Patti Smith's "Ghost Dance" ("We Shall Live Again") and Iris DeMent's "Living in the Wasteland of the Free."
Steal This Radio 100 Mitchel Cohen interviews David Wilson, co-editor of Weekly News Update on the Americas, who just returned from Haiti and who spent some time in the countryside as well as his first-hand experiences and observations as he was in the capital city of Port-au-Prince when the earthquake struck.
Steal This Radio 99 Mitchel Cohen and Shaune Velazquez interview Haiti Emergency Coalition activist Marty Goodman, about the history of Haiti and the role of the U.S. there following the devastating earthquake.
