In this speech recorded at the 4th UN World Conference on Women in Huairou, China, in 1995, Riffat Hassan explains that in the Koran women and men are considered created as equals; but Islamic commentators picked up the concept of women being created from a rib from other religions, beginning a trend for considering women subordinate to men across the Islamic world.

Topic A:Trump violates international law, threatens Venezuela, authorizes deadly strikes at sea. Why does Canada go along with the madness? Topic B: Simple respect for the Cherokee nation by publishers and media could have prevented the Thomas King affair from happening.

“From Vision to Legacy: James Parker Shield on Building the Native Hall of Fame” Get ready for part 2, we welcome back James Parker Shield, the driving force behind the National Native American Hall of Fame. Raised in Montana and a member of the Little Shell Chippewa Tribe, Shield overcame challenges of foster care and homelessness to become a groundbreaking journalist, public servant, and advocate.

A passionate advocate for artist empowerment, Jesse continues to shape new pathways for independent creators—helping them grow their audiences, own their work, and build sustainable careers in the global music industry. ABOUT THE AMERICAN INDIAN HALL OF FAME “For many years, I felt there were various resources and facilities for learning about Native Americans from the “old times,” it is difficult to find an accurate and comprehensive source to learn about more contemporary Native Americans. America and its Native American people need a place to honor and commemorate the significant contributions and achievements of more recent historical and contemporary Native Americans. The major focus of the Hall of Fame will be from the Civil War period up until the present day. This time frame was chosen because the Civil War was a milestone event in Native American history in a unique and “modern” sense because Natives fought on both sides of that national conflict. The National Native American Hall of Fame will help people understand how Native Americans overcame the hopelessness of early reservations, and the trauma of Indian boarding schools, poverty, discrimination, racism, and the cultural divide to not only adapt but, in many instances, achieve greatness,” states Shield.

This week's show starts with Louis Jordan doing a song most rock 'n roll fans know well, though maybe not by him, and ends with Buddy Holly doing the same song. In between we have our usual mix of great blues, country, gospel, soul and pop from well-known and obscure performers ranging from Doris Day to Screamin' Jay. You'll also hear a great new artist, Sinead X Sanders, a young gal (not your gal) with an old musical soul breathing new life into traditional country. Backbeat is also available in a 56 and 58 minute versions in three separate files if you want breaks. This version is also available directly or by any means you prefer. I am happy to provide custom station IDs, promos and liners. Email Lorne@Backbeatradio.com or visit www.backbeatradio.com for more information.

As always, we turn our gaze to Gaza. not only to the bombs that fell, not only to the ceasefire that never came, but to the plans whispered in Washington and echoed by Donald Trump. Trump’s vision for Gaza is not peace. It is profit. It is reconstruction for investors, skyscrapers rising over rubble, contracts signed over graves. And he is not alone. He is supported by guarantor states that remained silent, by senators like Ted Cruz who cloak Zionism in scripture, by leaders who normalize relations while hospitals burn. They stand with him— not with the people. But against this agenda, we honor the voices who refused silence. We honor Rachel Corrie, Shireen Abu Akleh, Issam Abdallah. We honor doctors like Ghassan Abu Sitta and Mona El Farra, who healed under fire. We honor students from Columbia, Harvard, Berkeley, and Boston College, who marched, who occupied, who spoke. We honor Americans like Angela Davis, Cornel West, Chris Hedges, and Jewish voices of conscience—Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein, Ilan Pappé— who exposed the myths and defended the dignity of Palestinians. These are the names, the lives, the legacies that stand against Trump’s Gaza vision. They remind us that Gaza is not a blank canvas for empire. It is a home. It is a people. It is a struggle for truth. So tonight, as Trump and his allies dream of skyscrapers over rubble, we remember the fallen, we honor the resistors, and we declare: Palestine is not for sale. Palestine is not for profit. Palestine is for its people. Stay with us. This is This Week in Palestine. And this is where the silence ends.
