(2) STATEMENT OF SUPPORT FROM GENERAL MANAGERS
of KPFA, KPFK, KPFT, and WFPW

Dear KPFA/Pacifica listener,

Below we forward a statement issued by four of the general managers of Pacifica radio in support of the recent actions taken by the interim executive director of the Pacifica network to protect the viability of the entire network. Please share widely. We urge you to can add your support by writing to the Pacifica board of directors atpnb@pacifica.org.


October 14, 2019

To Whom It May Concern:

We, the General Managers of four Pacifica radio outlets, are writing to express our full and unwavering commitment to the recent decisions and actions undertaken by our Interim Executive Director, John Vernile.

Specifically, we believe the decision to lay off the staff at WBAI was responsible given the dire financial situation. We believe this decision was motivated out of economic necessity and if there were alternative options available Mr. Vernile would have taken them.

We back the decision to broadcast Pacifica Across America on 99.5FM as an action that maintains positive control of the airwaves while distributing relevant, educational, and informative content to the city of New York.

We respect and affirm the board's decision to that also agrees with these actions.
We believe that these actions are necessary to secure the ongoing viability of WBAI and the Pacifica Foundation.

We know it is the responsibility of the Executive Director to ensure that Pacifica and our local stations are financially sound, acting with full integrity, and in alignment with our mission. Our listeners, staff as well as local, state, and federal governments necessitate a high degree of professionalism and regulatory compliance. We believe that Mr. Verniles actions were and are
in this spirit.

As General Managers it is our responsibility to lead and continue the unity that Mr. Vernile has developed. We are committed to expanding this momentum into an organized, mission driven, financially stable WBAI.

Sincerely,
Anyel Zuberi Fields, General Manager, KPFK Los Angeles, CA
Quincy McCoy, General Manager, KPFA Berkeley, CA
Jerry Paris, General Manager, WPFW, Washington, DC
Jack Valinski, General Manager, KPFT Houston, TX

Pop Spirit - The Commodification Of Spirituality & Simulated Desires
NATURAL BLAZE OCTOBER 17, 2019
By Kingsley L. Dennis

the non-physical part of a person which is the seat of emotions and character.

the prevailing or typical quality, mood, or attitude of a person, group, or period of time.

"A moment of enlightenment is of no use to someone who needs a good week of it." ~Idries Shah

We may need more than a week of enlightenment, yet in our modern cultures all we get are bite-sized YouTube-compatible fleeting moments. The prevailing mood of our times is one where the 'spirit' is like the radio-friendly three-minute pop song. It is a digestible burst that we can chew on without it giving us indigestion. We have literally thousands of online videos showing us how to improve almost every aspect of our lives by breathing, body postures, mental exercises, visualizations, and the good old self-to-mirror pep talks. We are told that we 'create our own reality,' despite the obvious fact that in many countries we have accepted sociopaths in power - or perhaps we voted them into office? If that is our reality, then what does it say about ourselves - that most of us are latent sociopaths with a hidden agenda for inflicting suffering upon others? If this is creating our own reality, then most of us must also be secretly longing for therapy...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT, OCTOBER 23
FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE


12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1086 - Fascism: 2019 World Tour, Part 1"

Beginning an overview of burgeoning fascism around the world, this program commences with further documentation of the operation and heritage of fascism in Ukraine.

We begin with discussion of a Kyiv legal decision maintaining that the C14 militia of the Svoboda organization is not a neo-Nazi organization.

A lawyer for C14 asserts that the group, while nationalist, is not neo-Nazi in nature and labeling it a neo-Nazi group hurt its "business reputation".

The Kyiv City Commercial Court agreed, ruling that Hromadske TV couldn't establish that C14 - a group named after David Lane's "14 words" white supremacist slogan - was actually a neo-Nazi group. As a result, Hromadske TV has to retract its tweet and pay 3,500 hryvnyas ($136) in court fees for C14.

This despite the fact noted in the article below that: " . . . . [C14's] own members have admitted to joining it because of its neo-Nazi ideology . . . ."

It's a sign of how far along the mainstreaming of Ukraine's neo-Nazi groups is in Ukraine: If you call the open neo-Nazis "neo-Nazis", they can sue you and win.

As the article also notes, C14's youth cadre is funded by the Ukrainian government: " . . . . Nevertheless, C14 has received state funding for two years running from the Ministry of Youth and Sport to conduct "national-patriotic education" courses at summer camps for the country's youth. . . . ."

In FTR #907,we noted the profound presence of the Ukrainian fascists in the United States, as well as their operational connections to the Third Reich. In FTR #1072, we noted the Ukrainian youth cadre in the U.S., and its affiliation with the OUN/B milieu in Ukraine.

Our next story fleshes out these connections, noting: ...

Next, we highlight the fascist ascent in the Baltic states. ...

After review of Carl Lundstrom's financing of the Sweden Democrats, as well as Lundstrom's central role in financing the Pirate Bay site (which hosted WikiLeaks, courtesy of Julian Assange's fascist associate Joran Jermas/Israel Shamir), we delve into the operations of Lundstrom's associates.

Utilizing the anti-immigrant theme utilized with great effect by fascists around the world, the Sweden Democrats are gaining ground on the Swedish political landscape.

Key points of discussion include: The Nazi origins of the Sweden Democrats; the Waffen SS background of one of the party's founders; networking of the Sweden Democrats with fascists and reactionaries in other countries, including the U.S., France

12-1 Alan Watts, "Thusness" Part 3 of 5

"This odd word, translating the Sandkrit 'tathata' is used in Mahayana Buddhism
to suggest how things look to a Buddha, to one who has experienced
Enlightenment or liberation and is, therefore, called a Tathagata - one who comes
(or goes) thus, just like that! The sense of this nonsense in Buddhist philosophy
and its practical demonstration in Zen." (AW)
