Portada del episodio Salvadoran Mining, Redux

Salvadoran Mining, Redux

Like the reboot that no one asked for, metallic mining is once again back on the table in El Salvador. Is this God’s gift to the country, as El Presi tweeted out, or just another example of destruction rebranded as development? Who stands to gain and who to lose in Round II of Gold Mining vs El Salvador? Episode 5 of LFSC gets into it with Cruz the environmentalist, who grew up around a hotbed of antimining activism in Cabañas, as she talks to us about her worries, frustrations and hopes around what gold mining 2.0 brings to her community. We reflect on the fast money and slow contamination mining leaves behind, as well as on the sharp generations of activists that have been honed in environmental defense throughout the years in El Salvador. ------------------------------------- Lecturas: * https://beta.elfaro.net/en/el-salvador-en/el-bosque-prisoners-conscience-released-accepting-charges-secret-judge [https://beta.elfaro.net/en/el-salvador-en/el-bosque-prisoners-conscience-released-accepting-charges-secret-judge] * https://dialogue.earth/es/justicia/vuelta-mineria-el-salvador-sociedad-civil-responde-empresas-se-preparan/ [https://dialogue.earth/es/justicia/vuelta-mineria-el-salvador-sociedad-civil-responde-empresas-se-preparan/] * https://centroamerica.boell.org/es/minacerroblanco [https://centroamerica.boell.org/es/minacerroblanco] * https://www.laprensagrafica.com/elsalvador/Oenege-sobre-la-mineria-A-diario-se-usarian-22-millones-de-litros-de-agua-20241206-0101.html [https://www.laprensagrafica.com/elsalvador/Oenege-sobre-la-mineria-A-diario-se-usarian-22-millones-de-litros-de-agua-20241206-0101.html] * https://ips-dc.org/book-the-water-defenders/ [https://ips-dc.org/book-the-water-defenders/] * https://elpais.com/america-futura/2025-02-09/vivir-y-morir-por-el-oro-la-mineria-metalica-regresa-a-el-salvador.html [https://elpais.com/america-futura/2025-02-09/vivir-y-morir-por-el-oro-la-mineria-metalica-regresa-a-el-salvador.html] * https://7s.laprensagrafica.com/el-agua-acida-que-purgan-las-minas-de-san-sebastian/ [https://7s.laprensagrafica.com/el-agua-acida-que-purgan-las-minas-de-san-sebastian/]

Freedom of the Press In El Salvador

After an extended fall break, we are back this holiday season to explore freedom of the press along with journalist Humberto Flores, who explains how censorship in El Salvador works without jailing reporters (yet), by flexing fear, secrecy, harassment, and laws that haven’t been enforced (yet). ...Not because Nuevas Ideas has a crush on democracy or anything, but maybe because it’s easier choke out local independent media by intimidating journalists into self-censoring than it is to lead with arrests. For now. Join us, surfistas, as we dive into the shallow end of the freedom of the press pool and look at why so many Salvadoran journalists are drying off lately and getting out of Hell Salvador.

Nayib Bukele's Political Journey

This episode looks at the rise of Nayib Bukele, from his days as a media mogul, club promoter, Yamaha dealer and local mayor, to beloved iconoclast president/ world’s coolest dictator. Was he an industry plant, or did this girlie work his butt off to get to the tippity top? We talk to Hilary Goodfriend, UNAM-Mexico City researcher and editor at Jacobin Magazine, NACLA and Latin American Perspectives, who walks us through the branding, improvisation, and family connections that launched Nayib into the executive — as well as how a healthy dose of papitis, as well as class and racial resentment, may be what’s driving the sweeping changes that El Salvador is experiencing today.

El Salvador's Branding Strategy

This episode picks apart the communications strategy of El Salvador's governing party, Nuevas Ideas, and how they've rebranded the suspension of civil liberties into a triumph of good over evil, just by slapping on the face of a tech bro in a baseball hat. We look at the namesake of this podcast, Surf City, through the eyes of political communications expert Elena, who shares her thoughts on the censorship, troll farms, crypto kings, state media, paid sponsorships, artist collabs and general astroturfing that makes the Bukele model so on trend right now- and the bestia mediática that this podcast is up against. Statecraft, but make it content, chava. This is Episode 2 of Live from Surf City.

Mass Incarceration in El Salvador

Has your tía been talking about how nice el paisito is now that all the mareros are in jail? Are you glad to be able to visit the family rancho without getting mugged, but maybe a little disturbed that this is due to the Salvadoran equivalent of an ICE raid? Are mareros people? Can we solve all our problems by locking them up and throwing away the key? Should Youtubers have more of a right to visit prison than the families of incarcerated folks? Why are we so tranqui about mass incarceration in El Salvador but riot against it in the United States? We’ll address these and many more inquietudes in this episode, where we interview Mayra the anthropologist, who studies how family dynamics are affected by Salvadoran carceral regimes. We skip the coverage of Kilmar Abrego and the Venezuelan deportees to get to the heart of what mass incarceration means for everyday Salvadorans since their civil liberties were suspended under the state of exception three years ago. No charges. No trials. No end in sight. Come with us this season to listen to these and other stories from what we affectionately call Hell Salvador. ------------- Correction: The PSA at the end is by the Progressive Action Fund, not the Democratic Party.
