Episode 12 - The Regime of Money

Jade, Jonah, Jeff, and Joel Kovel, present a J Palace Production: The Regime of Money.

An epic vodcast made from interview footage with Joel Kovel, a leading voice in the ecological socialist movement, found footage, and some basic beats. Joel Kovel is the Alger Hiss Professor of Social Studies at Bard College, where he teaches the classes "The Ecological Crisis: Marxist Perspectives" and "William Blake: Artist, Poet, Visionary". He also graciously donated money to Jade, Jonah, Tim, Adam, and others to travel to Venezuela in 2006 for the World Social Forum.

Joel is the author of such books as:

White Racism: A Psychohistory, Pantheon, 1970.
A Complete Guide to Therapy, Pantheon, 1976;
The Age of Desire: Case Histories of a Radical Psychoanalyst, Pantheon, 1981.
Against the State of Nuclear Terror, Pan, 1983.
The Radical Spirit: Essays on Psychoanalysis and Society, Free Association Books, 1988.
In Nicaragua, Free Association Books, 1988.
History and Spirit, Beacon Press, 1991.

The Enemy of Nature, 2002, Zed Books (essential)
Beyond Zionism, 2007, Pluto Press
Ongoing: Editor-in-Chief of the quarterly journal, Capitalism, Nature, Socialism.

From his very web 1.0 website:

As an activist, Joel Kovel has been engaged in struggles for peace and justice since the Vietnam War era. He has worked within the antiwar and antinuclear movements, the solidarity movements in Central America and the Caribbean, the movements for democratic media, and, increasingly, for ecological transformation. He lived in Nicaragua for a period in 1986, and accompanied Pastors for Peace as they broke the US blockade on Cuba in their 1994 Friendshipment. He has acted in films, worked frequently with the Bread and Puppet theatre, and lectured on four continents.
Kovel joined the Green Party since 1990. In 1998, he was the Green Party candidate for US Senator from New York, and in 2000 sought their Presidential nomination.
Kovel is married, has three children, three stepchildren and five grandchildren. He lives in Willow, a rural district of Woodstock, in Ulster County.

Episode 11 - Chapter 4: The Unsettling of America

Chapter 4: The Agricultural Crisis as a Crisis of Culture

Read by Ryan Muller. Ryan made a beautiful, "classic Muller" guitar soundscape for this chapter. His voice is almost as lifting as his eyes. A very profound chapter! We're getting deeper and deeper into this great work. Ryan works with and for the MacArthur Foundation "Genius" Award winner Judy Pfaff. Building surely beautiful, significant items.


 

Episode 10 - Chapter 3: The Unsettling of America

Chapter 3: The Ecological Crisis as a Crisis of Agriculture

Read by Gregg Dart. My (Tim's) minidisc broke, so Gregg had to read this twice. Many thanks. Gregg has a business called Totally Creative Concepts in Salem, OR. I am not sure entirely what it does, but Gregg does neat stuff very often. Enjoy. It is very possible that there will be weekly podcasts of this book, due to overwhelming enthusiasm from people reading chapters.
