Basta Now #2 on Saturday Night

What's it going to take to save the planet? After another year of extreme temperatures and limp promises, climate activists are at a strategic crossroads.

Extinction Rebellion has declared a shift away from disruptive tactics. Splinter groups like Just Stop Oil remain committed to direct action, even at huge personal cost. And in Germany, the Ende Gelände movement is taking the fight to the heart of fossil fuel infrastructure, blockading coal mines and facing off against the police. Is anything working?

As XR prepares for 'The Big One' on 21 April, Clare Hymer puts the question to three activists at the forefront of the movement: Clare Farrell, a co-founder of Extinction Rebellion, Rachel Bosler, an activist with XR offshoot Just Stop Oil, and Alice Swift from Ende Gelände.

Covid in an Abandoned Field (06/08/23)

Once upon a time we dreamed of a world free from household drudgery, helped by robot butlers, self-cleaning appliances and "smart" homes that saved energy and tidied after themselves. Yet despite decades of high-tech innovation in the home, we've barely reduced our workload – and still no one's managed to automate the folding of laundry.

So why is household labour stuck in the past? If technology won't save us, what kind of political fix will? And why does the list of chores just keep getting longer? These are some of the questions explored by Helen Hester and Nick Srnicek in their new book, After Work: A History of the Home and the Fight for Free Time.

Eleanor Penny visited Helen and Nick at home in Surrey to discuss the impact of automation on our domestic lives, the neoliberal fixation on the nuclear family, the possibility of public luxury, and how raising their own family has informed their thinking on the promise of the post-work society.

Novara FM: We Were Promised Robot Butlers w/ Helen Hester & Nick Srnicek

Is surrealism a style of art or a mode of living? How can irrationality be a political position? Nadia, Jem and Keir follow a thread of off-kilter expression, from Dadaism and André Breton’s manifesto through to Situationism, punk and Afrosurrealism. 

The gang explore the importance of surrealism to socialist thought and anti-colonial struggle, considering Meret Oppenheim's fur cup, Lenin at the Cabaret Voltaire, surrealist women's art, Freud’s ideas of the subconscious and a canon of surreal songs from Ivor Cutler to Devo.

ACFM Trip 37: Surrealism

Ever felt like there's too much change these days? Don't worry, you're not (necessarily) becoming more conservative. In this episode, Nadia, Jem and Keir think about the ebb and flow of political currents, social movements and our inner lives. 

What's the difference between being still and being stuck? When does a campaign turn into a movement? Why do we talk about feminism coming in waves? How can you tell you're approaching a tipping point? The gang turn such abstract questions into concrete history, with examples from punk to Corbyn, Daoism to degrowth.

ACFM Trip 38: Movement and Stillness

Millions have protested against the bombing of Gaza by taking part in marches, boycotts, sit-ins and other demonstrations. But what difference does it make, either to the world or to ourselves?

The gang confront a contentious topic in this Trip. Do "A to B" marches ever achieve anything? What about joining hands around an RAF base? Digging up roads? Refusing to pay your taxes? Is squatting a form of direct action?

They discuss Irish hunger strikers, Montgomery bus boycotters, Greenham Common women and the people that Suella Braverman calls "hate marchers", with music from Lowkey, the Plastic Ono Band, Steel Pulse and more.
