In this episode, we focus on the hunger strike led by USF students, and are joined by organizers Will and Alina of the USF Divest Coalition.

By deceptively portraying its female soldiers as liberators confronting a misogynistic enemy, Israel seeks to reframe its militaristic oppression as a righteous feminist cause.

In honor of Women's History Month, Ruth examines the bold visions and concrete programs of revolutionary women leaders - past and present - to uplift gender equality and dismantle patriarchal oppression. She contrasts their work to collectively value women's labor with how capitalist nations like the US funnel resources into militarism rather than supporting working families. It's a provocative look at what real women's liberation requires.

In honor of Women's History Month, this episode of takes a look at the burden and exploitation faced by women under capitalist society. Ruth dives deep into the political economy and root causes of why "mommy is so tired" all the time. She also uplifts the historical examples of brave women fighters, resistors and educators who refused to accept their subjugation.

Tune in to listen to Ruth's compelling interview with Lama from Dream Defenders, who speaks on the needed disruption of a Kathy Castor event. Kathy Castor, a member and Co-Chair of the Children Healthcare Caucus, has continued to maintain silence on the genocide of children in Gaza, and has upheld US support for the Israeli state.

In other news, please be sure to support Breonte's Family at the Fish Fry Fundraiser in Palmetto, 11 am to 3 om, on Saturday, March 2nd! You can find details for the event on our Facebook page and elsewhere.

Host Ruth is joined by guest Bobby to expose the injustice behind the police killing of Breonte’ L. Johnson-Davis and the web of lies and corruption used to shield the killer cops. They analyze disturbing discrepancies in the Palmetto PD's press conference and bodycam footage meant to justify this senseless murder. From officers caught laughing to an egregious delay in medical treatment, they dissect the excuses and damning evidence of a coverup.

Ruth and Bobby connect this case to the broader systems enabling rampant police violence in America, like qualified immunity. As Breonte’s family is barred from seeking justice, this episode issues a searing indictment of law enforcement's unchecked power. 

Ruth investigates alarming reports coming out of Florida jails and prisons. According to a report by the NAACP, in one Florida jail alone, 21 inmates have died under suspicious circumstances with little accountability. From prisoners succumbing to treatable medical issues to beatings at the hands of guards, a disturbing pattern emerges - incarcerated individuals are too often left to suffer and die with minimal oversight.

The lack of transparency around inmate fatalities ties into broader systems shielding police and corrections officers from consequences. Qualified immunity, police protections, and the dismantling of civilian review boards allow law enforcement violence and negligence to persist unchecked.

As democracy erodes in Florida, it's the most vulnerable populations who bear the deadly costs. Join Ruth as she takes on the prison industrial complex and powerful forces undermining accountability. In this episode, she issues an urgent call to stand up against injustice and value human life.
