If you haven’t yet personally witnessed the very odd feeling of driving up to a four-way stop sign only to realize that the vehicle across the street from you has no driver behind the wheel, chances are you will soon enough. Like it or not, autonomous vehicles are coming, and this week on Sea Change Radio we are speaking with Samuel Abuelsamid, an expert on self-driving technology. We take a look back at the evolution of autonomous vehicles, examine the purported “full self-driving mode” offered by Tesla, and discuss some of the sustainability issues surrounding this technology.

The Christmas Truce was an unofficial cease-fire on parts of the Western Front. Guns fell silent for one to several days. Soldiers emerged from the trenches and talked, exchanged gifts and kicked around a soccer ball. Trenches were close in some places, separated by 50 yards or less. The Story of the Christmas Truce WWI is a documentary film about this spontaneous cease-fire. Thanks to historians Peter Hart, Taff Gillingham and Robin Schaefer, and their choice of rare documentary photos, footage and archived letters from soldiers of both sides. This archival TUC Radio program first went into distribution on December 13, 2022. By coincidence on the same day that nearly 1,000 faith leaders called for a temporary ceasefire in the War in Ukraine. They wrote that a Christmas Truce can offer an opportunity for moral clarity and could be the first step toward a negotiated peace.

Khadija Mohamed is a now-31-year-old nurse, who in 2019 inspired and co-founded a massive project in Kenya known as Red Splash. It holds blood-donor recruitment festivals designed to attract youth, screens and educates potential donors, and has an online app to connect nearby donors with patients of the same blood type. By providing the free blood to which patients are entitled, Red Splash has also put blood brokers and their cartels out of business. Red Splash has over 500 volunteers, and without any funding has already brought in more than 25,000 units of blood. Each unit is enough for three patients. They are hoping to expand and some day have their own mobile blood collection unit and blood bank.

Tonight I’m paying tribute to the martyred Palestinian poet and educator Refaat Alareer. Two years ago, on December 6 2023, the forces of the Zionist occupation murdered Refaat in an attempt to steal his voice. As if a missile could silence a poet and erase his words. Two years on, that voice is as strong as ever. Immortal. I’ll be reading an article he wrote called “Narrating Palestine” and I’m also going to be performing some of his poems.
