Women’s Day 2024: Patriarchy with Lipstick? Addressing Continuing Oppression of Women in Palestine, Afghanistan, and Beyond.

Women’s Day 2024: Patriarchy with Lipstick? Addressing Continuing Oppression of Women in Palestine, Afghanistan, and Beyond.

Author: Alternate Current Radio March 8, 2024 Duration: 59:09
This week, on the global research News Hour, we salute the day known as International Women’s Day with an examination of what women have faced and continue to face in a world populated, supposedly, by more progressive governments and more civilized societies. In our first half hour, we hear a discussion with peace activist Tamara Lorinz about feminized foreign policy being absent in the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Canada. In the next half hour, we are joined by Friba of the Revolutionary Association of Women of Afghanistan to explain the plight of women in Afghanistan during the occupation and since the Taliban resumed their rights destroying ways in power. Finally, we hear once again from researcher Tina Renier on how the hidden tendrils of control of white supremacist countries affect the continued containment of women in the black racialized countries in the Caribbean and in the global south generally.

Tune in to Global Research News Hour, a weekly program from the team at Alternate Current Radio that brings the work of the Centre for Research on Globalization directly to your ears. Based in Montreal, the CRG operates as an independent, non-profit research and media organization, and this audio extension of their mission digs into the stories and analyses that often exist outside mainstream headlines. Each episode functions as a deep-dive conversation, drawing from the Centre's extensive network of researchers, authors, and activists involved in publishing, humanitarian projects, and public education. You'll hear detailed discussions on the pressing societal and cultural issues shaping our world, from geopolitics and economics to environmental crises and social movements. The tone is substantive and inquisitive, prioritizing context and evidence over sound bites. This isn't just a summary of the news; it's a critical examination of the forces behind it, offering listeners a more nuanced understanding of global events. Produced by Alternate Current Radio, this podcast serves as an essential audio companion for anyone looking to move beyond superficial reporting and engage with the complex realities of our interconnected world.
