Wed 6/20 Preventing War with Iran

David is the host of Free School University, tune in every Wednesday at 7pm on http://www.obr.fm

Free School University Radio

Over the past few months there has been escalating talk about the possibility of a U.S. war with Iran. Israel, the U.S.’s closest ally in the region, is threatening attacks which could pull us into war. President Obama and the Republican presidential candidates are saying that “all options are on the table” to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. This is despite the fact that top U.S. intelligence officials have made consistent statements that Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program nor is there evidence they intend to establish one.

Massachusetts Peace Action and other peace groups have been working to prevent our engagement in another pointless, disastrous war. They placed ads in the MBTA subways and buses, and have a petition campaign, as well.

Mass Peace Action board members Shelagh Foreman and John Maher will talk to us about why sabre-rattling is the wrong approach…

Wed 6/6 Race & Economic Inequality: Building a multi-racial movement for justice

Free School University Radio

The Occupy movement has always been much about economic inequality and economic injustice, but the racialization of inequality has not always been emphasized. The mainstream media loves to highlight stories of middle class families losing their jobs or their homes, but people in racial minority or immigrant communities bear a disproportional burden: first fired, last hired, hugely targeted by predatory mortgage lenders in good times, their communities decimated by foreclosures during the crisis. How can we educate ourselves about the racialized aspects of economic inequality? How are working class people of color organizing themselves to fight injustice? And how can we learn from them, and work with them to build a truly global, multi-racial movement for economic justice? Community organizer Camilo Vivieros will help us explore and answer these questions.

Camilo Viveiros has worked on immigrant worker issues and multi-ethnic/multi-racial economic and environmental justice organizing with students, youth and seniors…

Next Show: Occupy & Education

Free School University Radio

The radical reconstruction of society envisioned by the Occupy movement, with people taking responsibility for the world we live in through horizontal democratic structures and relationships, requires that we educate ourselves so that we can make good and informed decisions about the issues that confront us. But traditional educational structures are often hierarchical, and best serve the goal of forming citizens who are compliant, rather than participatory. What should an Occupy educational model look like? How have Occupations around the country been addressing this need for self-education? What is, should, and will be the role of Occupy Boston’s Free School University working group in this effort?

David, Eden, and possibly other members of OB’s FSU working group will be on the show to discuss. Call-ins from the community will be invited.
