"Image of Man" Part 1 of 2
''I want to start by giving what may be to many of you, a new definition of the word myth. As normally used the word myth means an idle tale, a fable, a falsehood, or an idea that is out of date, something untrue. But there is another older and stricter use of the word..''

2:30-3 Paul Grignon: ''Money as Debt'' (ONE of TWO) Best of TUC
By Maria July 28, 2020
An independent movie on the question "Where does money come from?" became the most successful film on banking on the internet and was praised by notables like Catherine Austin Fitts, David Korten, Hazel Henderson, and Tom Greco. With over 2 million downloads between 2006 and 2009 and translated into 20 languages, the film has remained to this date one of the extraordinary teaching tools and inspiration for the monetary reform movement. This program is an update of TUC Radio's 2009 Film on Radio version.
Even though Grignon has since produced two sequels that deal with bailouts and stimulus packages, and how to create a nurturing economy, this first film remains a must see in the opinion of Korten, Greco, and that of many influential monetary reform organizations. Indeed the film has become more important today as the question of how to prevent another banking bailout remains unanswered.
In part one of this double program Paul Grignon makes the case that only a very small part of our money supply is created by the government. The vast majority of money is created by banks whenever a loan or mortgage is made. Banks, which are private institutions, are given enormous power to make and manage money; and governments in most countries borrow the money for their operations from banks and have the taxpayers pay the interest.

Among the unforgettable quotes included in the film is this one by Congressman Wright Patman "I have never yet had anyone who could, through the use of logic and reason, justify the Federal Government borrowing the use of its own money... I believe the time will come when people will demand that this be changed...(and) when they will actually blame you and me and everyone else connected with the Congress for sitting idly by and permitting such an idiotic system to continue." Patman was chair of the US House Committee on Banking and Currency from 1965 to 1975, the year before he died. From TUC Radio, www.tucradio.org



3-3:30 Paul Grignon: ''Money as Debt'' (TWO of TWO) Best of TUC
This update of TUC Radio's 2009 Film on Radio version opens up concepts for groundbreaking bank reform and explains three astounding quotes by American presidents:

"All of the perplexities, confusion, and distress in America arises, not from the defects of the Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit, and circulation."
John Adams, Founding Father of the American Constitution
"Whoever controls the volume of money in our country is absolute master of all industry and commerce ... and when you realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate."
James A. Garfield, assassinated president of the United States

"The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credits needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. By the adoption of these principles, the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest. The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of government, but it is the government's greatest creative opportunity." Abraham Lincoln, assassinated president of the United States
With over 2 million downloads between 2006 and 2009 and translated into 20 languages, the film has remained to this date one of the extraordinary teaching tools and inspiration for the monetary reform movement. Thanks to Paul Grignon for permission to use the soundtrack of his film, ''Money As Debt''

TUESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 1

12-12:30 Fluoridation on Trial: RFK, Jr.'s Conversation with Attorney Michael Connett

In August, a landmark David-versus-Goliath federal lawsuit brought by citizens against the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to end fluoridation of drinking water took another giant step forward. The lawsuit-spearheaded by a coalition of nonprofits and individual citizens-resulted in a two-week trial in June (via video conference) that synthesized the findings of hundreds of studies, including two landmark birth cohort studies funded by the National Institutes of Health. The evidence, which included important admissions from EPA's own scientists, makes clear that the fluoridation chemicals consumed by over 200 million Americans present an unreasonable risk of neurotoxic effects, including reduced IQ and ADHD symptoms, particularly for babies in the womb and bottle-fed infants. Buttressed by a 2,500-page Citizens Petition and the expert testimony of four internationally recognized scientists, lead attorney Michael Connett asserted that the EPA has been derelict in its duty, spelled out under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), to limit or ban toxic chemicals that pose unreasonable risks-and especially, as this case underscored, risks to the developing brain.

Don't miss Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s enlightening conversation with fluoridation lawsuit attorney, Michael Connett, highlighting some of the more interesting twists and turns in the groundbreaking water fluoridation trial against the EPA.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 2

12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1141 Deep Politics and the Death of Park Won-Soon, Part 2'
⋅ JULY 29, 2020 ⋅

The late Park Won-soon was a leading political reformer and critic in South Korean politics, as well as being a probable candidate in the 2022 presidential campaign. Of particular significance in assessing the suspicious circumstances of his death are the overlapping areas in which his criticism placed him afoul of political, economic and historical dynamics stemming from the Japanese Golden Lily program and the placement of that consummate wealth at the foundation of the post-World War II American and global system.

In addition, the "Black Gold" accumulated through the Golden Lily program and Nazi loot provided an economic foundation for post-World War II covert operations. (FTR #'s 427, 428, 446, 451, 501, 688, 689, 1106, 1107 & 1108 deal with the subject of the Golden Lily program successfully implemented by the Japanese to loot Asia.)
An advocate of reconciliation between North and South Korea, Park Won-soon's stance on the two nations placed him at odds with prevailing American, South Korean and Japanese national security policy.

A lawsuit was filed by a conservative South Korean lawyer against the Kim Yo-jong, the sister of North Korean ruler Kim Jong-un. This is noteworthy in the context of the death of Park Won-soon, who was an advocate of reconciliation between North and South Korea. Korean right-wingers have called him a "commie" for his advocacy of improved relations between the countries.

Relations between the Koreas are very much on the front burner.
Much of the program details the centuries-long Japanese looting of Korea, culminating in Japan's 1905 colonization of that country. In 1910, Korea was declared to be Japanese national territory, thereby denominating all material and cultural wealth of Korea as Japanese.

The bulk of the program consists of a history of Japan's colonization of Korea. That colonial occupation was a major target of the late Park Won-soon's criticism...

1-2 Chris Hedges, ''Trump & the Christian Right''
Talk about an odd couple. The 45th president and the Christian right. For the president, renowned for his wayward ways, the support from some of the mega-churches and their high priests form a key part of his base. According to a Pew poll, over 80% of white evangelicals said they will vote for the current occupant of the Oval Office. The Christian right looks the other way when confronted with the facts. For them, it's all about opposing same-sex marriage and abortion, funding religious-based schools, ensuring right-wing judges are appointed, and embracing nationalism, militarism and imperialism. There is enough hypocrisy to fill many bookshelves. Just see Jerry Falwell, Jr. Sometimes it's hard to keep the faith.

Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who has reported from the Balkans, the Middle East and Central America. His columns appear on scheerpost.com. He is the author of many books including ''Death of the Liberal Class,'' ''The World As It Is,'' ''Wages of Rebellion'' and ''America: The Farewell Tour.''

1-2 David Whyte, ''Clear Mind, Wild Heart''
'Finding Courage and Clarity through Poetry' Part 1 of 6

Immerse yourself in the poetic tradition for guidance when facing life's fierce edges.
"In the middle of the road of my life, I awoke in a dark wood, where the true way was wholly lost." When you find yourself without bearings, as Dante Alighieri voiced so well centuries ago, where will you look for guidance?
Throughout the ages, teaches David Whyte, the language of poetry has held the power to lend us courage, to give us the vision of those who endured, and to hazard ourselves boldly at the fierce edges of our lives. On ''Clear Mind, Wild Heart'' you will join this acclaimed poet and teacher to engage with the poetic imagination as your companion and guide for the difficult terrain we are all traversing.
Poetry, teaches Whyte, offers immediate and powerful tools unique from any other tradition. It can help us to see beyond the fragile surfaces of our lives, open us to the universal cycles and patterns that shape our lives, and awaken our conversation with what has been called the Untouchable, the Numinous, or the Eternal.

''Clear Mind, Wild Heart'' guides you into the wellspring of this living poetic tradition through six hours of exploration and poetry with David Whyte, including the verses of such inspired voices as Emily Dickinson, William Blake, W.B. Yeats, Marina Tsvetayeva, Rainer Maria Rilke, Antonio Machado, and others. Through their words, you will discover how to apprentice yourself to beauty and find a place of belonging where you can hold loss and grief, the challenges of change, and the wonder of new discovery and adventure.

The language of poetry takes us outside of our small selves and calls us to look at ourselves and the world with open eyes, teaches David Whyte. Whether you are a lifelong poetry lover or new to its insights and pleasures, ''Clear Mind, Wild Heart'' is an inspiring guide to answering that call. Six hours of exploration, as taught in David Whyte's acclaimed seminars and retreats
