Sunday Feature: Regarding the Pain of Others (BBC Radio 3) | BBC Sounds 1Xtra Talks With Richie Brave (BBC 1Xtra) | BBC Sounds Today, on Radio 3’s Sunday Feature, the vastly experienced journalist Allan Little considers Susan Sontag’s 2003 essay Regarding the Pain of Others. In the essay, Sontag wonders about the ethics of war journalism, particularly photography. Do pictures of the horrors of war engage the viewer or make us turn away? Little has spent decades reporting from places such as Sierra Leone and Bosnia. He met Sontag in Sarajevo (she was making a theatre piece – a previous Radio 3 documentary, Afterwords, discusses this); they drank whisky and became friendly. Little’s subject isn’t Sontag, however. Over 45 packed minutes he picks at the idea of war reporting being neutral, unframed “reality”, and also that such reporting might change the way the world works. He describes how he and other reporters are driven by the belief that “we could move people – we could move you listening now – to compassion and even action”. The US war correspondent Martha Gellhorn is quoted: “The idea [is] that the act of witnessing could end suffering.”

Read online at https://workersliberty.org/node/11428 "CPGB": Time to tell the truth Posted in PaulHampton's blog on Fri, 17/10/2008 - 08:08, The pathetic intervention of the CPGB at the AWL-Machover on Sunday has been followed by an even more pathetic write up in its paper, the Weekly Worker (16 October). Interestingly, it does not print what its own comrades said – as we have in Solidarity – since to do so would expose the apolitical poverty of their contributions. The CPGB gave out a leaflet headed “time for politics” at the debate – yet none of its speakers said anything substantial about either Israel-Palestine or about Iran. Instead, the tone was set by the hysterical Ben Lewis, and reiterated by editor Peter Manson and “guru” John Bridge – lying about Sean Matgamna in order to whip up left public opinion against the AWL.

Credit: Music in Action An online concert featuring over 100 musicians will take place to mark 76 years since Jersey's Liberation. The Virtual Liberation Day Celebration will be streamed via the internet, featuring local artists as well as acclaimed musicians from around the world. It has been organsied by Music in Action, A Jersey Charity which aims to inspire children to take up music and give help and support to the elderly and infirm. Of course lock-down hasn’t been as difficult as life for those in the occupation. But for islanders today, as we look back at the panic about whether there would be food in the shops, the stay at home orders and curfews, the ban on travel, will probably be the closest that we get to experiencing those terrible times.

SUPPLEMENT: Before, during and after March Ben Lewis explores the multiple causes behind what was a badly calculated bid to artificially induce revolution in Weimar Germany Heavens above, what is going on here! Genuine remorse, even if enforced, or nothing of the kind? Do you really know what you have done? The best action, the noblest and highest cause ... a cause that god just for once put in your hands, you have treated like muck in a pigsty (Gerhart Hauptmann Our path against putschism) This article, which is based on a talk I gave to the Online Communist Forum in March, represents a first attempt to revisit and reinterrogate the complex chain of events known as the ‘March Action’ or - more accurately - the ‘March struggles’ of 1921, which culminated in a failed attempt to bring about a general strike nationally and seize power by the Communist Party of Germany (KPD). However, looking back a hundred years on, things appear more like a ‘Whodunnit’.
