One of the greatest theorists, analysts and critics of colonialism was the late Martinican psychiatrist Frantz Fanon, but Dr. Fanon's work dwelled on the crises of colonialism in Africa. We like to think that colonialism was a problem of yesteryear -- the '60's, '70's and early '80's. It's history -- right?

The release of “My Baby Rides the Short Bus: The Unabashedly Human Experience of Raising Kids with Disabilities,” the groundbreaking anthology written by counter-cultural parents of kids with special needs. This collection provides a dose of laughter and authentic insights into the experience of folks often ridiculed into invisibility.

Lots of crazy rock and roll on this one. Includes the GWB at his most drunk.

Learn about a new campaign to support Leonard Peltier and what a true warrior is with Michael Oneroad. Coral Brune then enlightens us about a traffic ticket she received in light of a mystery street camera and wonders if this is legal. David Russell, author of "Healthy Solutions, A Guide to Simple Healing and Healthy Wisdom", discusses how our bodies, minds and spirits work together in healing. Rita Martinico and Kristi Clemens, Directors at the Walnut Avenue Womens Center discuss the impact the state budget cuts have had on their services. Learn about their numerous programs, all providing high quality support and services to women, children and families that allow them to thrive, and learn the true meaning of power. The center responds to the needs of its clients and creates programs in response to these needs.

Listen in as we argue about which comes first, the state or the bankers. Both should be brought down, but in what order? We talk a little about the roots of conflict and the future of a unified front of diversified resistance.

We discuss the upcoming decision on troop expansion in Afghanistan, the current situation in Honduras, and the recent successful strike by graduate employees at the University of Illinois. This is v.1 of the show, which is a fairly raw version of the conversation. Related audio and video (from the strike, etc.) is linked from acriticalear.info.

Covering both international affairs and labor issues on this week’s show, which brings us back from a long hiatus.

We start in Afghanistan, and discuss the likelihood (and impact) of an escalation in U.S. troop numbers. Bob points to a day of action next Monday, where Peace Action West and others are urging supporters to call the Whitehouse to oppose an escalation.

We then move to Honduras, and discuss recent State Department statements which have garnered praise from supporters of the coup, and corresponding criticism from figures such as Senator Kerry and Rep. Berman. In talking about the situation on the ground I pointed to Bill Taylor of the Primary Communications Project, who has been working with Radio Lenca, one of the few pro-Zelaya broadcast outlets still on the air in Honduras. We note that it seems difficult to believe that the conditions for a free and fair election exist in an environment which has seen assassinations of Zelaya supporters.

Finally, we move back to Urbana, Illinois, and talk about the succcessful strike by the Graduate Employees’ Organization, defending the continued existence of tuition waivers for graduate employees – and by extension intervening to ensure the accessibility of graduate education.

The version uploaded this evening (Thursday) is a fairly rough version, as I want to get it up for broadcast on WRFU this evening. I have audio courtesy of Joe of I-Resist that I hope to use to supplement our studio-based conversation, but that’s going to have to wait for later this evening or tomorrow.

An offbeat look at guns & gun-banning. I tell of my own development from a capgun-slinging 7-year-old to a liberal-academic gun-banner ... to somebody who knows a little about guns & gun laws and thinks the NRA is not TOTALLY wrong about EVERYTHING. Then historian JOYCE MALCOLM discusses the meaning of the 2nd Amendment & the recent "Heller" Supreme Court decision affirming the individual right to keep & bear.
