Live Thu, Mar 6 on “America Unhinged”, plus Stand Up For Science, other recent updates

Hello, democracy lovers! Please join me on America Unhinged at 8pm Eastern on Thursday, March 6, where I will be talking with hosts Francesca Fiorentini and Wajahat Ali about DOGE’s slash-and-burn march through the federal government, what it means for the American people if we don’t stop it, and how we can do that.

I also encourage you to attend a local Stand Up for Science rally at noon Friday local time, either the main rally in Washington DC or one of the 31 other local rallies being held throughout the country. If there’s no SUFS rally near you but you’re on a college campus, there may be someone organizing a SUFS walkout. Ask around or look for flyers, or even organize one yourself!

In other news:

  • Please read and share my op-ed published yesterday by The Hill, “I was fired by DOGE, but I am not a victim”.
  • I enjoyed talking with hosts Jim Braude and Margery Eagan yesterday on WGBH News’s show Boston Public Radio, broadcast live from the beautiful glass atrium of the Boston Public Library’s central branch (video stream link, audio stream link). If you’re in the Boston area, I encourage you to visit the library to watch one of their broadcasts live, 11am–2pm every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. It’s a fun experience. No tickets required!
  • Not terribly exciting, but for the record, my story was reported on CNN’s Outfront show with Erin Burnett on February 21 (transcript), and here’s the published transcript of my appearance on CNN News Central February 26.

[Short Film] Harvesting the Future

"#Agriculture can thrive in the desert. The #TohonoOodham people have used #AkChin farming, a form of #DryFarming, to grow crops for thousands of years. In this short documentary by #WenonaBenally and #SalBaldenegro from Tucson, #Arizona, cultural experts demonstrate these traditional practices and implementations for future community planning."

[Short film] Tides of Tradition

"Communities like the #Unangax̂ rely on traditional #foodways instead of customary, expensive grocery suppliers. This film by Kanesia McGlashan-Price of #Unalaska, #Alaska, follows the journey of a local subsistence hunter and shares the realities of food access in the changing Arctic and the values that inform their harvest."

[Short Film]: Keepers of the #Coastline#California’s #Indigenous #MarineStewards

"In 2023, the Tolowa Dee-ni’ people alongside partnering tribes asserted sovereignty over the 700 square miles of their ancestral fisheries. Now in 2024, in this film by Jeremy Charles of Smith River, California, we see how marine science and resource management can be guided by community and culture."

[Thread] #NOVA Releases Series of Short Films Produced by #IndigenousFilmmakers

by Barbara Ayotte
November 25, 2024

"Honoring Native American Heritage Month, GBH, Vision Maker Media, and NOVA have released a collection of six short documentaries, Legacy of the Land, covering climate change in Native American communities. The first of its kind, the collection includes stories each produced by an Indigenous filmmaker making the series as dynamic and distinct as Native American communities themselves. From Alaska to Arizona, audiences witness the knowledge, tradition, and innovation of people living on the front lines of our changing climate. This series is a companion to NOVA’s film, Sea Change: The Gulf of Maine, which was released in July.

"'This series shines a well-deserved spotlight on Native American climate solutions that are based on Indigenous knowledge and science. The stories provide a rare insight from the perspective of Indigenous filmmakers who have given us privileged access to their communities,' said Laurie Donnelly, GBH Executive Producer."

When entertainment does what you don’t like, turn to educational television instead of that.

Like turning from other people to God Himself.

Started donating to PBS for the Passport feature to get back to watching PBS.

The Lexington station is much better than the station in Bowling Green in my opinion.

@wgbh and should know this.

In this month's edition of the AAPB newsletter, read about how media archival studies students with UCLA’s Center for Preservation of Audiovisual Heritage recovered over one hundred audio files for the archive's "This Way Out" Collection: blog.americanarchive.org/2024/

"Students make a profound and lasting impact by working directly with local cultural heritage organizations and creating access to rare archival materials to let community members see and hear their own histories.”

Public Broadcasting: noun - Television and radio programs broadcast to provide information, advice, or entertainment to the public without seeking profit.

But it's also so much more than that.
