În episodul de azi vorbim cu Dominique și Corina, două membre ale rețelei Avort Accesibil, despre accesul la avort în România și dificultățile întâmpinate, de la spitale până la mediul politic. În prima parte vorbim despre situația legală și medicală în România, despre cum spitalele nu fac avorturi la cerere și despre alternativele care există în această situație, precum avortul medicamentos. În a doua parte vorbim despre contextul politic actual, unul care alunecă din ce în ce mai mult spre dreapta extremă și în care restrângere dreptului la avort va deveni, probabil, unul dintre subiectele cu care vor defila din ce în ce mai mulți actori politici. În încheiere discutăm despre cum ne putem implica, mai ales, în acest moment, pe partea de consiliere, pentru a contracara propaganda agresivă a rețelelor anti-avort.

În episodul de azi vorbim cu Raluca de la grupul Palestine Solidarity Cluj despre campania “Elbit Out” pe care au inițiat-o, prin care denunță complicitatea României la genocidul perpetuat de statul Israel în Gaza. În prima parte vorbim despre revendicările principale ale campaniei și felurile în care statul Român colaborează militar cu Israelul. În a doua parte lărgim discuția la contextul istoric care a generat conflictul curent, iar invitația noastră ne povestește cum este viața de zi cu zi a palestinienilor sub ocupația israeliană, pe baza călătoriei sale recente în Cisiordania. În încheiere, facem apel la ascultătorx să sprijine campania prin colectare de semnături și donații, și mai ales prin a vorbi cu persoanele apropiate despre ce se întâmplă în Gaza și complicitatea României.

În episodul de azi vorbim cu R și M, doi membrx ai colectivului care organizează Piața Autonomă Cluj (PAC). În prima pare invitatx ne descriu principiile de autoorganizare, ajutor reciproc și antimilitarizare care stau la baza acțiunilor de tip Food Not Bomb (FNB). PAC-ul este o extensie al FNB, prin faptul că pe lângă distribuirea de mâncare se organizează și activități conexe: un schimb de haine, ateliere, cursuri de limbă etc, toate oferite gratis. A doua parte a discuției se axează pe detaliile logistice a modului în care se organizează colectivul, cu speranța că aceste informații să ajute și alte grupuri în a organiza FNB sau piețe autonome în orașele lor.

In today’s episode we talk with Mixael from the Four Thieves Vinegar Collective about fighting against the medical-industrial complex by creating your own DIY medicine. In the first part we discuss US patent law that permits for-profit pharmaceutical companies to put huge precise-tags on life-saving medicines, like insulin and hepatitis C treatment. Millions of people die yearly as a consequence. We then learn about the tools developed by Four Thieves that help anyone with a very basic knowledge of chemistry produce these medications with a fraction of the cost. We end the episode by discussing some of the broader social impacts of these tools, touching on aspects of safety, legality and freedom of choice.

In today’s episode we talk with Alexis Daloumis about his documentary Belkî Sibê. The doc shows his experiences fighting in the International Freedom Battalion during 2017 as part of the Syrian Democratic Forces against ISIS, and the socio-political changes in the liberated areas. We talk with Alexis about the actual real way that the revolution is being implemented on the ground, from what he could tell as an outsider. In the second part we focus on the filming and editing process of the documentary.

În episodul de azi vorbim cu Beti Pataki despre fermentare. Pornim discuția cu o introducere despre ce înseamnă fermentarea, pe care invitata noastră îl descrie ca o colaborare cu niște micro-organisme pentru a produce o schimbare, o revoluție. Vorbim și despre natura DIY, experimentală și accesibilă a fermentării. În a doua parte analizăm felurile în care capitalismul a format modul în care ne raportăm la producția, conservarea și consumul de hrană. În acest context explorăm fermentarea și foraging-ul ca practici anti-capitaliste. În încheiere, Beti ne oferă câteva rețete accesibile cu care putem începe să experimentăm fiecare.

In today’s episode we talk about the recent rebel offensive in Syria which has managed to topple the dictator Bashar al-Assad. First, we give a brief summary about Assad’s rule and the civil war since 2011 in Syria, mentioning the different local factions and foreign powers involved. Then we talk about the democratic-confederalist kurdish liberation movement in the North and Eastern parts of the country, its repression by Turkey and the fate of the project in the context of the regime change in Syria. We end by listing some media and other resources from where we personally get our news about Syria and Rojava, mentioning what biases each outlet has.

In today’s episode we talk with activist Sinan from the organization Climaximo about organizing during and against accelerating climate change. We start the conversation by describing some of the principle that our political work is based upon, in particular that the real risk of climate collapse is underrepresented and that the capitalist class will always resist any meaningful structural change. Then we talk about Climaximo, their mode of organizing and plans for the future. Sinan explains to us how they operate under the assumption of a state of climate emergency and their effort to frame climate change as a war waged by the capitalist class against the rest of the world. We finish with some book recommendations and a call to get organized.

It can be hard to imagine life in Gaza outside of the constant terror, the bombings, and the continuous tragedy of the Palestinians. It’s hard to even imagine anything about Gaza at all, bombed as we are by constant propaganda and fear mongering. So we sat down with Muath, who lived there for most of his childhood and adult life, and he painted for us a picture of a place where life exists, like everywhere else, with daily tragedy, resistance, and, of course, with humour.

The episode was recorded in Arabic, and then translated and read in English by our comrade Ghassan, who also did the art for the episode. Timestamps for the two versions below.

In the first part of the conversation, Muath talks about his own family history and how it ties into the plight of the Palestinian people and the ongoing genocide. In the second part we talk about day to day life in Gaza, its struggles, and some of the misconceptions associated with it, even by people in solidarity with the Palestinian cause. Finally, in the third part we discussed resistance and solidarity, and what anyone can do to help, even in the slightest, in the face of the overwhelming tragedy.

For most, the protests in Bangladesh that crippled the authoritarian government came out of nowhere. Upon closer inspection, they are the logical conclusion to more than a decade of poverty, shock doctrine, and increased religious radicalization. We invited Saad Shahriar, our comrade and the main host of Unrest Radio, to do a joint episode and have a closer look at the facts on the ground. In the first part we discussed the history of post-independence Bangladesh, its history and the main political forces and actors. Then we turn briefly to the more recent wave of protests, like the textile garment workers’ strikes at the end of last year. Finally, we move to the current wave of student-led protests and activism, the brutal government crackdowns and the general silence of the Western media about the events.

The episode was recorded at the end of July, before the Prime Minister resigned on August 5th, leading to a collapse of the government. Facts and events are unraveling fast, and much may change in the upcoming days or even hours.
