Anticlines

Has democracy broken down? Is it even an idea worth fixing? Trip 22 is a three-horse race as Nadia Idle, Jeremy Gilbert and Keir Milburn consider the anti-democratic shifts happening across the political spectrum and ask what it really means to be ruled by the people.

The gang discuss whether democracy is necessary to tackle climate breakdown, how democratic relationships can spawn creativity and joy, and what happens when left politics abandons mass movements – as well as selecting some suitably egalitarian music from Crass, Shonen Knife, the Scratch Orchestra and more.

Music: Crass - 'Punk is Dead' (Use Knife Remix) / Cornelius Cardew & the Scratch Orchestra - 'The Great Learning' / Shonen Knife - 'Riding on the Rocket' / Persimfans Orchestra - Beethoven's 9th Symphony / Weather Report - 'Milky Way'

Books & articles: Robert D. Putnam - Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community / Andreas Malm - How to Blow Up a Pipeline / Geoff Mann and Joel Wainwright - Climate Leviathan: A Political Theory of Our Planetary Future / Paul Hirst - Associative Democracy / Francesca Polletta - Freedom is an Endless Meeting / Sean Smith - Crass Goes Disco

#ACFM Trip 22: Democracy

In this segment, we have special coverage of the recent launch of the Black Alliance for Peace Zone of Peace campaign. The Black Alliance for Peace (BAP), along with key partner organizations, is leading an effort to activate the popular movements in this region in support of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) 2014 call to make the Americas region a “Zone of Peace.”
We have portions of the Black Alliance for Peace Zone of Peace launch press conference, and an interview with BAP Coordinating Committee chairman Ajamu Baraka. But we begin with Margaret Kimberley's keynote address at the Chicago Area Peace Action summit.

In this segment we discuss the shooting of Black teenager Ralph Yarl, how restoring voting rights of those convicted of felonies increases public safety, and Margaret Kimberley's thoughts on Joe Biden’s re-election campaign. But first we talk to Dr. Gerald Horne about U.S foreign policy in the second part of a two-part interview.

Black Agenda Radio April 28, 2023

Ben Norton discusses the rise and fall of US-led neocolonial financial order, from the 1944 Bretton Woods conference that established the US dollar as the global reserve currency; to the 1971 Nixon Shock that ended the gold standard, Volcker Shock, Third World debt crisis, and emergence of neoliberalism; and finally to the historic growth of China and consolidation of the Global South-led BRICS bloc.

Beatrice, Artie and Abby discuss this week’s news that the CDC is planning to drop its covid isolation guidelines, and how the proposed change is emblematic of the Biden administration’s long running practice of undoing pandemic policies as a form of labor disciple.

CDC Says: Back to Work (02/15/24)

Ah ces poly-sons ! Ils sont complètement tirés par les plumes en saison sèche … car, quand l’appel du parapluie fait un sens averse, c'est une pluie d’oiseaux qui vient fredonner la polyphonie d’Azillanet.

"Goutte que Goutte" est une pièce sonore réalisée par la fusion de 4 gouttes de Belgique avec 5 gouttes de France. C'est une composition de sons glanés dans le village d'Azillanet et sa nature environnante, à différents moments d'une journée et d'une semaine, et aux hasards de rencontres avec les habitant.e.s, les oiseaux, les fluides, les végétaux et les lieux de vie. 
Elle témoigne autant de la diversité des sensibilités de ses créateurs et créatrices, que de la singularité de leur écoute poétique du monde. Ecouter le monde, c'est se relier à lui et en prendre soin, même en temps de pluies, alors coûte que coûte, les micros ont été sortis et les oreilles se sont ouvertes.

Les 4 gouttes de Belgique : Virgile Loiseau, Zoé Maus, Katherina Lindekens et Anne Versailles.
Les 5 gouttes de France : Marie Spiller, Nils Loret, Floriane Pochon, Anne Girard Esposito et Juliette Mariel.
L'espace temps de leur fusion : le merveilleux stage de field-recording organisé par Félix Blume, du 30 avril au 5 mai 2024. 
Merci à Georges, Nico, Stéphane, Anne, Mireille, Patrick, Ana, tous les habitant.e.s d'Azillanet, le rossignol, le Couvent, le Foyer Rural, la cloche, la mare aux crapauds, et bien sûr la pluie !
