The heroic story of the founding of the U.S. Navy during the Revolution has been told many times – yet often missing from maritime histories of the period is the ragtag fleet of private vessels that were, in fact, critical to American victory. In his discussion of REBELS AT SEA with Radio Free Galisteo's John Shannon, Dolin corrects that omission, arguing that without the help of privateers, the outcome of the war would likely have been very different.

The Prince of Flowersis the story of US Army CAPTAIN ANTOINE “TONY” DUPREY, the lone survivor of a helicopter shot down in Afghanistan’s southern desert, and an unusual child suicide bomber named JUMA GUL, who finds him. Juma tells Duprey the explosive suicide vest he is wearing is full of flowers that will make people better. Duprey assumes the child’s statements betray a battle-scarred psyche. What he doesn’t know is that Juma is no mere child and has existed through millenia and multiple wars in Afghanistan. Duprey and Juma Gul set off on a journey to make the world a better place. The soldier’s objective is to kill QARI NASRUDDIN MEHSUD, the Taliban insurgent who gave Juma Gul the suicide vest, and who trains and equips other Afghan children. Juma Gul simply wants to give the world his flowers. Shadowed by a Predator drone whose bloodthirsty pilot, DADDY RABBIT, sits in air-conditioned comfort on the other side of the planet, the soldier and the child are witnesses, victims of, and unwitting accomplices to the violence and hypocrisy of warfare in Afghanistan’s present as well as its past. As Duprey and Juma Gul endeavor to achieve their goals, their actions precipitate unanticipated and devastating consequences for the entire planet.

J. Howard Shannon is a writer and retired US Army Officer who served two tours in Afghanistan. Shannon is the author of the short stories “The Jump,” “The Dirge,” “Convoy Operations” and “Brought Low.” His novel – The Prince of Flowers – which is set in Afghanistan, challenges the conventional notions of modern combat.

This is Radio Free Galisteo's Rebroadcast of the Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Coalition Zoom call #87 from 21 March 2022 hosted by Harvey Wasserman. Every Wednesday you can catch the latest rebroadcast on Radio Free Galisteo from 4 to 6 PM mountain time. Here's what's in store in this episode:

CIVIC DUTY VOTING, CHAOS IN TEXAS, INSANITY IN OHIO

Our GREEP zoom #87 leaps into the issue of Civic Duty Voting with the great MILES RAPOPORT, former Secretary of State of Connecticut. Miles has served as president of Common Cause and Demos. He is most recently the co-author, with E.J. DIONNE, of 100% Democracy being published this week by New Press. Miles’s discussion of universal mandatory voting is groundbreaking and fascinating. He’s a great presenter and his hour with us is utterly riveting.

We then hear from MYLA RESON and election protection activists SUSAN YOUNG and TERRI BURKE about the major challenges facing voters in Texas. Leading that agenda is a brutal race for Attorney-General, where a grassroots victory could be a game-changer nationwide.

We follow with an astounding dive into the unreal rabbit hole that is Ohio. As we hear from RACHEL COYLE, DAVID DEWITT and STEVE CARUSO, GOP fanatics have trashed public mandates to draw fair and balanced districts for upcoming elections for the state legislature and US Congress.

The result is that Ohio does not have Congressional districts or state Legislative districts with which conduct a primary election. It would be hard to invent a wackier debacle. STAY TUNED!!!

In THE AUTHORITY GAP:  Why Women are Still Taken Less Seriously Than Men, and What We Can Do About It (W.W. Norton; Feb 8, 2022), journalist Mary Ann Sieghart provides a startling perspective on the unseen bias at work and  in our everyday lives to reveal the size of the gap that still persists between men and women.  She shows how highly qualified professional and managerial women face gender bias today and are often talked over by male colleagues at meetings, overlooked, underestimated, or patronized.
