 The Appalachian Sunday Morning

Mahalir Association for Literacy Awareness and Rights or MALAR for short, grew out of a government-sponsored literacy program in the early 1990s. Women started using their literacy to place demands on government; the funding stopped. The women aggregated local self-help groups (SHGs for short) under the MALAR umbrella. Thirty years after its founding, MALAR wields collective financial power, supportive information, and many opportunities for jobs and leadership. It has touched the lives of more than 30,000 women and their families. Guests: Sheline Mary, founding member, honorary President; Johnsily, Vice President; Dr. R. V. Bindu, academic researcher; Vasantha Latha, Vice president; Suseela, Joint secretary, block coordinator; Edwin Jaya Kumari, treasurer, block coordinator; Sindhuja, joint secretary, health coordinator; Pushpalatha, AIDWA Coordinator; Vijaya Lekshmi, President; Gino Bai, Secretary

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney: the international order is broken. Is climate cooperation done for? What now? Political Science Professor Matthew Hoffman talks us through it. But we begin with the biggest under-rated climate killer in America: wildfire smoke. Shocking new science with Dr. Chris Callahan. Plus scientist Sarah Berk: cities are getting hotter faster.

The war is on. Donald Trump, Bibi Netanyahu, the morally and sexually depraved ruling class of the US, Israel and the entire Western World, the Epstein Class, have pulled the trigger on Iran. The Empire struck Iran without provocation on February 28. But Epstein’s drinking buddies, these corrupt ruling class losers, cannot break the resistance. They couldn’t break Gaza. They won’t break Iran.

This week's show covers almost a full century of recording with country blues, bluesy country, bluegrass and gospel blues. We'll hear a Charlie Rich track recorded for Sun that the label considered too good for rock & roll, a cello and voice piece from Kevin Fox, Sinead X Sanders modern rockabilly and a 1950s tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis that didn't chart but is now considered a classic.

Today, we open with a truth that has shaped every conversation we’ve had on this show: the Palestinian tragedy is not a moment in history, it is a living wound. A wound carried by families in Gaza, in the West Bank, in refugee camps, and in every home that has watched a child grow up under occupation. And yet, even as the suffering deepens, the world’s attention drifts. Headlines fade. Newsrooms soften the language. Stories are trimmed to fit political comfort. And when the media falls silent, the burden shifts to ordinary people, activists, creators, and independent reporters who refuse to let the truth disappear. They livestream bombings, document raids, translate testimonies, and carry the voices of Palestinians into millions of homes. But the moment their voices grow too loud, pressure mounts to silence them. Accounts vanish. Videos are removed. Algorithms bury their work. The struggle is no longer only on the ground, it is also in the battle over narrative, memory, and truth. Across the world, public opinion is shifting. Governments may cling to old alliances, but ordinary people across continents, across religions, across generations are beginning to see clearly what has been obscured for decades. They see the checkpoints. They see the bombed schools. They see the journalists killed for documenting reality. And they are asking questions that can no longer be ignored. One of those questions is about the United States and its role in the widening conflict with Iran. Many Americans believe their country is being pulled into a confrontation it did not choose. Critics argue that U.S. policy is shaped less by national interest and more by pressure from Israeli leadership especially at moments of heightened tension. Whether one agrees or not, the perception is powerful, and it is growing. Millions of Americans are asking why their nation is once again on the brink of another Middle Eastern war, and whose interests are truly being served. This brings us to today’s central conversation. We turn to the YouTube discussion “Is Israel On the Brink?” featuring renowned historian Ilan Pappé. In this interview, Pappé examines whether Israel is entering its most vulnerable moment despite its overwhelming military power. He describes a society fractured from within split between secular and religious factions, between settlers and citizens, between those who benefit from the occupation and those who fear its consequences. He argues that political extremism, demographic shifts, and the moral weight of the ongoing oppression of Palestinians are pushing the state toward a breaking point. Pappé’s analysis is not a prediction of imminent collapse, but a warning: systems built on domination eventually face a reckoning. And when that reckoning comes, it reshapes not only Israel and Palestine, but the entire region, including the United States, whose foreign policy is deeply entangled in these dynamics. So today, as we begin this episode, we hold all of this together: the tragedy, the resistance, the shifting global conscience, the failures of media, the courage of independent voices, the scholars who refuse to look away, and the families, Palestinian, Iranian, American whose lives are shaped by decisions made far from their homes. This is This Week in Palestine.

Robert Fisk, the award winning war correspondent and dean of Middle East journalists died in Dublin on October 30. He was only 74. Robert Fisk won more British journalism awards than any of his peers, including British Foreign Reporter of the Year seven times and the Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism in 2002. The New York Times described him as “probably the most famous foreign correspondent in Britain.” And that in spite of his principle of speaking truth to power. Fisk reported for the London Independent on Israel’s invasion of Lebanon, the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, and Syria, without sparing responsibility of the United States and his native Britain for so much of the carnage. He became one of very few Western foreign correspondents to interview Osama bin Laden in the 1990s, years before the Saudi-born al-Qaeda founder became globally famous. And you will hear him in the upcoming program describe that experience. In this talk, recorded in November 2002 he talks about the hidden reasons of the Bush administration for going to war against Iraq, about the 911 connection to future wars, and about the aftermath of Afghanistan and his meeting with Osama bin Laden.

This sensational sequel goes even deeper in its analysis of royal finances, examining where the money comes from, how it is used and what has changed with the arrival of a new king. Amongst many other things, it reveals how a family that was effectively bankrupt in 1760 is now one of the richest in the country; how they lobby governments and the media to maximise their profits from the public purse; and how they take advantage of a uniquely beneficial tax and legislative regime. Packed with details on the acceptance of dodgy donations; the appropriation of official gifts for personal use; and the exploitation of public bodies including the NHS, churches and charities, who are charged punitive rates for the use of Duchy-controlled land, this eye-opening exposé also includes a chapter on Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and his money-making endeavours, including his friendships with convicted fraudsters, paedophiles and spies. Pulling no punches, this is the book the royal family really don’t want you to read. https://politicsthisweek.gn.apc.org/2026/02/the-bristol-politics-show-presented-by-tony-gosling-11/
