In 1968, one mother’s public support for her gay son helped inspire the founding of PFLAG — Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. Today, PFLAG has hundreds of U.S. chapters and an international network connecting families, friends, and allies for support, education, and advocacy. PFLAG Los Angeles Vice President Anthony Eftimeo speaks with This Way Out’s Lucia Chappelle about what meaningful allyship looks like and how allies can help LGBTQ+ people and their families thrive. In the news this week, Turkish activists take to the streets as the right-wing government’s anti-queer raids and arrests escalate, but the formerly right-wing Hungarian government will scrap its “no promo homo” law. Fiji sees a spike in HIV infections. There’ll be no gender-affirming care for trans youth in North Dakota, but the city of Seattle, Washington expands civil protections with the times.

The east coast of Africa endured British slave trading long after the transAtlantic slave trade ended. Linda Shuma had an ancestor who was released to Freretown in Mombasa. She is seeking more information about his origin and also hoping Kenya's government will recognize descendants of slaves as an ethnic group with similar status to indigenous tribes.

Golden oldies (60s, 70s, 80s, 90s)

A musical smorgasbord awaits you on Backbeat this week; cultures, styles and languages all mixed up to create an audio delight. We've got French Hawaiian, Creole Dixieland and African jive mixed in with blues from Roosevelt Sykes, doo wop born on a Brooklyn Street corner, jazzy blues from the under-appreciated Una Mae Carlisle and some lively 1950s and '60s hits. Just what you've come to expect.

Today we open a chapter of American politics that is often whispered about, rarely confronted, and almost never acknowledged openly. It is the story of how a foreign policy lobby — powerful, organized, well funded, and deeply embedded in Washington — has shaped the direction of the United States for decades. It is the story of how the Israel lobby became one of the most influential political forces in America, capable of steering debates, silencing dissent, and defining what can and cannot be said in the halls of power. This is not a story about individuals. It is a story about a system. A network of think tanks, advocacy groups, donors, media relationships, and political pressure that has woven itself into the fabric of U.S. policymaking. A system that ensures military aid flows without question, diplomatic cover is provided without pause, and political loyalty is rewarded without hesitation. A system that has convinced Congress that supporting Israel is not a foreign policy choice, but a political necessity. For decades, lawmakers have learned that criticizing Israeli policy carries consequences. Careers stall. Committees are lost. Donors disappear. Media narratives shift. And so, silence becomes the safest path. Compliance becomes the easiest path. And unconditional support becomes the expected path. The result is a foreign policy that often reflects the priorities of the lobby more than the interests of the American public. This influence is not subtle. It is visible in the billions of dollars in military aid approved every year. It is visible in the diplomatic protection offered at the United Nations. It is visible in the way presidential candidates speak about Israel with identical language, as if reading from the same script. It is visible in the way journalists, academics, and analysts are pressured, attacked, or marginalized when they challenge the narrative. And it is visible in the wars America enters, the alliances it chooses, and the crises it escalates. From the Middle East to the Persian Gulf, from Iran to Lebanon, from Gaza to the West Bank, U.S. policy often mirrors the strategic priorities of Israel more closely than the strategic interests of the United States. Today, we revisit this story not to provoke, not to generalize, and not to target any community. We revisit it to understand how power works. How influence is built. How narratives are shaped. And how a lobby became strong enough to guide the foreign policy of a superpower. Because understanding the Israel lobby is not about blame. It is about clarity. It is about recognizing the forces that shape America’s decisions abroad and the silence that surrounds them at home. It is about asking who benefits, who pays the price, and who decides the direction of a nation that claims to act in the name of democracy. And today, we begin that conversation. If you have thoughts, I want to hear them. Email me at TWIPpodcasts@gmail.com and tell me how you see it. This is This Week in Palestine.

The Electronic Intifada’s Ali Abunimah brings us news of this pop culture backlash in support of speaking out for Palestine.

This episode is sponsored by EMXETF.com Kevin T. Carter joins Kyle to talk about TGRZ, the China AI LLM Tigers ETF, and why China’s role in the AI trade may be much bigger than most U.S. investors realize. Kevin breaks down the AI market as a five-layer stack: electricity, chips, data centers, models, and applications. From there, he explains why TGRZ is focused on the model layer, where Chinese open-weight AI models like DeepSeek, Kimi K3, GLM, and Qwen are increasingly competing with U.S. models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others. The conversation also gets into one of the biggest surprises from the episode: how differently China and the U.S. appear to view AI adoption. Kevin points to public sentiment around AI being roughly 80% favorable in China versus about 20% in the U.S., and Kyle explores whether that difference in adoption could matter as much as the technology itself. They also discuss Jack Ma, Alibaba, the blocked Ant IPO, and why Kevin believes some of the risks investors associate with China are more complicated (and possibly more overblown) than the headlines suggest. The episode closes with a look at AI infrastructure, data centers, power demand, underwater and space-based compute, and the broader question of whether AI destroys jobs, creates new ones, or does some combination of both. As always, none of this is investment advice. TGRZ is speculative and volatile. Do your own research, understand the risks, and make sure any investment fits your own strategy.
