TUC Archives - a 29 minute audio-documentary of a January 2010 art exhibition in the small former logging town of Willits, CA, with poems and paintings by Ferlinghetti; and collages, and photos from Indian reservations by Maria Gilardin. The re-broadcast of this documentary was scheduled to honor Lawrence Ferlinghetti on his 102nd birthday, March 24. City Lights Publishers just announced that he died last night on February 22nd, 2021. They said that: “He continued to write and publish new work up until he was 100 years old .. His curiosity was unbounded and his enthusiasm was infectious, and we will miss him greatly.” - I agree. Even though this is not the formal Obit Ferlinghetti deserves, I decided to present this documentary (produced in 2014) as scheduled. The exhibition, End of Industrial Civilization, would not have been possible without his paintings, his poetry and his ideas. Ferlinghetti even continued his engagement with the project and planned to collaborate to redo the exhibit under the title: Dismantling Industrial Civilization. The program opens with the Ferlinghetti poem: Wild Dreams of a New Beginning, written in 1974, about the mile high tidal wave that runs over Los Angeles which sinks like the Titanic, all lights lit; crosses the country to sweep Manhattan Island clean in 16 seconds. The washed land then awakes again to wilderness, and the Indians reclaim their canoes. That is followed by reflexions about Industrial Civilization from The Airconditioned Nightmare by Henry Miller and Kirkpatrick Sale’s article: Lessons from the Luddites. Followed by comments on Industrialization and self reliance from visitors to the opening reception at the Willits Center for the Arts - including the popular Sheriff of Mendocino. (Interviewed by KZYX programmer Annie Esposito) The program ends with a short biography of Ferlinghetti (up to 2014).

After decades of queer activists toiling in the civil rights kitchen, the table was ready to be set for marriage equality in the US ten years ago this week, when the Obama Administration decided to change course in its handling of marriage equality litigation. Our flashback from February 2011 includes Jon Daviddson of Lambda Legal explaining the implications of the revised Justice Department standard, Mary Bonauto of Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders recounting the stories of some of the plaintiffs involved, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney answering questions about the big announcement, Obama Campaign LGBT policy advisor Professor Tobias Wolff providing analysis of the move, and plaintiff Edie Windsor reacting to the decision. Just 15 months later, then-Vice President Joe Biden gave President Obama a shove into endorsing marriage equality. And in NewsWrap: The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights finds Jamaica’s anti-gay male sex laws in violation of LGBTQ constitutional rights, two Russian lesbian mothers denied asylum in Finland are vindicated by the U.N.

We hear this every four years – this is the most crucial election, blah, blah, blah. Well ladies and gentlemen, consider what has occurred over the past four years, the culmination of which was the Capital storming on January 6th, a date that will live in infamy, and you will agree with me that this next four years is crucial to the destiny of this country. I have stated before the events this year that the 2020’s represent a shifting current, a turning into a possible new age, I impress that belief more sternly in this episode. Joe Biden, mediocre politician, but a man described by those who bought him off constantly as a man for the ordinary man; just an average Joe, as a slogan might have said in another era; has a horrifying choice ahead of him – be himself and invite history’s wrath, as both Hoover and Buchanan did; or inflict austerity and bring to fore the destiny of the Weimer Republic. Obviously there is a third way (snicker, third way, paging Bill Clinton) this Democrat can take but that would require him to truly live up to his “average Joe” manicure and let’s be real, do we really expect Joe Biden to invite the hatred from the ruling class as one former president did? No. But we can hope he doesn’t invite history’s wrath upon us or the end to this republic.
