Worth watching for many reasons:
The revolutionary chants on the streets of Egypt have resonated around the world, but with a popular uprising without a clear direction and an unpopular leader refusing to concede, Egypt’s future hangs in the balance.
On Thursday’s Riz Khan we speak with Muslim scholar Tariq Ramadan and Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Zizek about the power of popular dissent, the limits of peaceful protest and the future of Egyptian politics.

I just found out that my good friend Daniel Kaufman doubles as Plant Magic Man, an extremely prolific (he’s made 6 albums in the last 2 years) and quite good singer/songwriter. There’s a strange “space” to these recordings — at once local and large. Somewhere between nearly-too-close intimate banjo strums and handclaps from an audience that echo from a room elsewhere is the threshold of this plant magic man. Buy his first release Julie Kirgo’s Album at Bandcamp for a dollar. Also, Sebastian Pardo another friend has been involved in shooting some gorgeous teasers for these recordings which are also worth checking out, juste la.
