dan@beingthechange.ca (AW@L Radio) — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 15:32:09 +0000

Friday February 3rd 2012 - Days of action for Students (drop tuition, forgive debt) and Labour (catepillar) in Canada as #Occupy Oakland attempts, unsuccessfully, to take an abandoned convention hall to use as a social space and for lodging. The vicious attack by the police in oakland sparked continent wide solidarty actions. We also look into more #deportkenney news, and the continuing and mounting disrepect from settler states towards Indigenous peoples through ignoring historic treaties.

We also unleash the first eco-update in a while as we report on the Enbridge oil spilling company, and continued resistance against their shitty pipelines, and other canadian mining oeprations. We jump into some info on the Fukashima nuclear disaster from http://globalresearch.ca before playing "No Fracking Way" http://submedia.tv and read of a protest against hydraulic fracturing at the #winterX games.

Some tunes and more!

Please visit http://conspiretoresist.wordpress.com and http://kwcs.2010resistance.ca for more information about the toronto G20 protests and ensuing political and legal fallout.

Show Notes (from june 2010, first posted june 26th 2010):

A discussion during the KW Peoples Summit,

We will explore the revolutionary context of the ministry of Jesus by giving historical perspective, deflating a few common misconceptions and celebrating the one who overturned the tables of the moneychangers. In viewing the New Testament as world-creating, empire eroding storytelling we hope to shine a light on actions and perspectives taught by Jesus, that can be used today, to disarm the powers.

Build your skills with this holistic approach to intentional world changing.
