Former US President Barack Obama last week said Indian PM Narendra Modis government should do more to protect Muslims.

Prominent ministers from Indias ruling party have derided comments by former US President Barack Obama that Prime Minister Narendra Modis government should protect the rights of minority Muslims, accusing him of being hypocritical.

During Modis state visit to the United States last week, Obama told CNN the issue of the protection of the Muslim minority in a majority-Hindu India would be worth raising in his meeting with US President Joe Biden.

Obama said without such protection there was a strong possibility that India at some point starts pulling apart.

Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday said Obama should not forget that India is the only country which considers all the people living in the world as family members.

He should also think about himself as to how many Muslim countries he has attacked, added Singh, whose statement came a day after another top Indian minister slammed the former US president for his remarks.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Sunday said she was shocked that Obama made such remarks when Modi was visiting the US aiming to deepen relations.

He was commenting on Indian Muslims having bombed Muslim-majority countries from Syria to Yemen during his presidency, Sitharaman told a press conference on Sunday.

Why would anyone listen to any allegations from such people?

The US Department of State has raised concerns over the treatment of Muslims and other religious minorities in India under Modis Hindu nationalist party. The Indian government says it treats all citizens equally.

Biden said he discussed human rights and other democratic values with Modi during their talks at the White House.

Modi, at a press conference with Biden last week, denied any discrimination against minorities under his government.

We have proved democracy can deliver. When I say deliver, regardless of caste, creed, religion, gender there is absolutely no space for any discrimination [in my government], Modi told reporters at the White House.

Democracy is our spirit, Modi added. Democracy runs in our veins. We live democracy, and our ancestors have actually put words to this concept.

The 72-year-old leader has been accused of presiding over his ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by passing anti-Muslim legislation and implementing anti-Muslim policies. That includes a law on citizenship and the end of the special status of Indian-administered Kashmir, Indias only Muslim-majority region, in 2019.

The United Nations human rights office described the citizenship law as fundamentally discriminatory for excluding Muslim migrants.

Critics have also pointed to anti-conversion legislation that challenged the constitutionally protected right to freedom of belief.

Barack Obama is getting candid about several topics with Hasan Minhaj, including how his famous end-of-year lists which allegedly reveal the former president's favorite books, movies and songs of the year are actually curated.

The former president, 61, sat down with the comedian for a one-on-one interview where he was subjected to Minhaj's line of questioning, which involved an intense interrogation right out of the gate.

I need you to look me in the eyes and be honest with me," Minhaj, 37, said at the beginning of the interview. "Mr. President, when you do your end-of-the-year lists, do you really read all those books, watch all those shows and listen to all those songs?

Obama immediately replied, I do.

When the comedian expressed doubt, Obama explained, People believe the books and the movies, but the playlists, they somehow think... and this is somehow coming from young people like you. Somehow yall think you invented rock and roll. You invented hip-hop.

And so the fact that my lists are, you know, pretty incredible, people seem to think, 'Well he must have had some 20-year-old intern who was figuring out this latest cut.' No man, its on my iPad right now, he continued.

Minhaj dubiously asked if the song Life is Good by SiR featuring ScribzRiley was on his iPad and what the plotline was for the book Afterlives by Abdulrazak Gurnah both of which made their way onto his 2022 lists.

Look heres the bottom line of my playlists, and my book lists and my movie lists: I am very scrupulous about making sure this is stuff I actually like, Obama said.

I will confess that there are times on the playlists, on the music playlists, where I will get suggestions because its not like I got time to be listening to music all the time, he admitted. So typically at the end of the year what happens is folks will be like, Man, you need to listen to this. This is good. But unless Im actually listening to it, watching it, reading it, I wont put it on there.

Before letting the topic go, Minhaj quickly asked what would have happened if Obama didn't choose his wife's book, The Light We Carry, as one of his favorite books of 2022. "Well that would be foolish, because we share a bank account," he responded with a laugh.

Minhaj went on to tackle deeper questions, too, including asking Obama if he was depressed amid all the current events: the overturning of Roe v. Wade, book bans, multiple mass shootings and climate change.

There is no way the 'Hope' and the 'Change' guy does not feel depressed," Minhaj said. "You are too smart not to feel depressed. Youre too intelligent.

Obama responded: First of all, there are times when I do feel depressed because objectively when you see an entire school terrified because a gunman is walking in with weapons of war, if your hearts not breaking then somethings wrong with you. If you think thats normal then you really do need some therapy.

He also explained that climate change was another worry of his with record forest fires, and said there is evidence that were not moving as fast as we need to to fight climate change, but he tries to put things into perspective. Obama added that the key is not to be blind to the genuine challenges and threats that are in front of us but also to think about how far we have come as humanity.

We can go through some lists of moments that are significantly worse than this, the former president said, listing big events like World War I, World War II and the Great Depression.

"You grew up and in some ways I grew up in this anomalous stretch of time in which even though bad things were happening, for the most part, the trajectory of humanity was things were getting better," Obama told Minhaj. "Were becoming less racist and less sexist and less homophobic and better educated and healthier

Hasan Minhaj Asks Barack Obama Who Really Curates His End-of ... - PEOPLE

The artist behind Barack Obamas iconic Hope poster is taking his talents to a new portrait of John F. Kennedy in a celebration of democracy.

The U.S. Embassy in Berlin, in coordination with the JFK Library Foundation, commissioned a new portrait of the former president to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Kennedys Ich bin ein Berliner speech in West Berlin that famously affirmed democratic values.

When I was looking for inspiration for the Hope poster for Obama, I looked at a lot of different political images but one of the most compelling was JFKs 1960 campaign poster, said Shepard Fairey, the artist, on Boston Public Radio Thursday. Hes looking, sort of, above the viewer off into the distance with a sense of vision. I wanted to convey something like that. ... One of the images that inspired me to create the Hope poster is now something that Im depicting in my style, and its an honor to do it.

Fairey will unveil the new work at the U.S. Embassy in Berlin on June 26. He says he has great admiration for the Kennedys, a family he got closer to when the Hope poster catapulted his work to international fame.

I've become friends with many of them and admired their activism and their sense of social responsibility over the years, Fairey said.

The Hope image resonated widely, in part, Fairey believes, the portrait projected gravitas and legitimacy I will give myself some credit, he said. Those were important traits for a younger, less experienced candidate to convey.

The main reason it had impact is because Obama himself had an impact, Fairey said. Sometimes the the complexity of an individual, the feelings that they conjure in someone, needs something not as complex to become a symbol, to become the icon, the thing that can be transmitted quickly.

He also attributes his success to luck and the timing of the early viral internet age.

I disseminated it both physically with prints and stickers but also had a free download that was a high-res PDF that could be printed out by anyone, he said.

For Fairey, it took persistence and putting out art that aligned with his values to eventually bring about the career he has now. He unveiled a 75-foot-tall Muhammad Ali mural earlier this year at the YMCA where Ali trained growing up, based off an image taken the day that Ali was indicted for defying the Vietnam War draft. Its a mural that honors his courage and strength of convictions. Another mural, displayed at the New England Aquarium, depicts the endangered right whales.

Im really lucky to be in the position, at this point in my career, to be able to choose things that really align with my philosophy. I, for years, worked as a graphic designer, as a screen printer, doing things that I needed to do that paid the bills.

His new work will continue to show his philosophy. The Director of Art in Embassies a friend of Faireys childhood art teacher had reached out to him to see hed be interested in creating a piece of work to the theme of diplomacy for democracy. I think that it's more essential than ever for democracy to, you know, to be protected and nourished, said Fairey.

The artist said that Kennedy illustrated practical and symbolic ways of maintaining democracy. I think he understood the power of words, said Fairey. I included some handwritten bits of the speech into collage in my painting. But the significance of him actually going there, giving the speech in person ... making sure that it would connect emotionally ... I think that's a big part of his genius.

For Fairey, the bigger picture comes down to continuing to put out a hopeful message and a will to maintain democracy.

I consider myself a patriot, meaning that I want to be proud of the country and I am, often, proud of the country, he said. But being proud is about our country living up to its ideals, manifesting in its own behavior, [and] its best ideas.

The man behind iconic Obama poster is working on a new portrait - GBH News

Wokeness was envisioned as a new reboot of the coalition of the oppressed.

Those purportedly victimized by traditional America would find intersectional solidarity in their victimhood owing to the supposed sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and other alleged American sins, past and present.

The so-called white male heterosexual victimizing class was collectively to be held responsible for their sinful triad of white rage, supremacy, and privilege.

Class considerations became pass. The Duchess of Sussex, and the billionaires Oprah Winfrey and LeBron James, shared grievances against all whites, whether they hailed from Marthas Vineyard or impoverished East Palestine, Ohio.

A bicoastal elite would draft the woke agenda and the oppressed would follow as ordered.

That top-down blueprint would embrace massive multibillion-dollar reparations to blacks.

In lockstep, all victims would rally around a Green New Deal that mandated high energy costs to discourage consumption of fossil fuels.

The new transgender canon mandated three sexes. Sex is socially rather than biologically determined. And there is a large, oppressed, and transgender population, which presents the next great civil rights struggle for America.

Historical wokeism lodged a list of grievances against the supposedly flawed American past. Indicting the dead required statues to be toppled. Names had to be changed. Histories were to be rewritten. Even the foundational date of America was to be reconsidered and altered.

Yet, the rainbow fabric of woke is now fraying and for a variety of reasons.

For one thing, woke took off after the perfect storm of the COVID-19 pandemic, the devastating lockdowns, the 120 days of violent rioting and looting following the death of George Floyd, and years of endemic Trump Derangement Syndrome. Most of those catalysts are waning. Temporarily unhinged Americans are slowly reviving. Millions of the comatose are waking up to normality and dont recognize their own country.

Two, woke is retrogressive, reactionary, and anti-civilizational. Decriminalizing the legal code, defunding the police, failing to apply norms to the homeless population, and destroying meritocracy have all hollowed out our major cities.

San Francisco was a far cleaner, safer, and kinder city 20, 40, or 80 years ago than it is today.

A woke FBI, Pentagon, or airline industry becomes a matter of life and death.

Three, in modern America, class is now a far more accurate metric of oppression than race or gender.

It is one thing to restrict fossil fuel development if you are in the upper one percent income bracket, quite another if you commute 50 miles a day in a used car. If there are to be reparations, why include Eric Holder or Al Sharpton, but not indigent Hispanics, Asians, and poor whites?

The multimillionaire, and prep-school and Ivy-League educated former President Barack Obama may castigate the unwoke Senator Tim Scott, R-S.C., for his absence of victimhood. But from which of his three enclaves does Obama do so the Kalorama mansion, the Marthas Vineyard estate, or the restricted-access beachfront retreat in Hawaii?

Four, religions also trump race. Hispanic-American Catholics and Middle-Eastern-American Muslims have more in common with so-called white Christians than they do with an atheist, or agnostic woke elite who pushes the lie that the anti-religion Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are a mere charity group.

Muslim-American communities in Michigan do not want children seeing drag queen shows or the pride flag flying with equal status to the American flag. The Catholic Hispanic community of Los Angeles has little tolerance for lurid anti-Christian motifs that preview a Los Angeles Dodgers game.

Five, wokeism is cannibalistic. Even the children of woke architects with perfect SAT scores and 4.0 grade point averages are being rejected on the basis of their race at their coveted Ivy League schools.

Neither the mansions of Beverly Hills nor estates of Presidio Heights qualify as sanctuaries from violent criminals, who are now exempted by the anointed from legal consequences.

The wokest of Hollywood celebs will soon lose movie roles and be disqualified for film awards on the basis of their race.

Even the most left-wing of movie directors do not want to be ordered by Soviet-style commissars to hire their crews, actors, and writers on the basis of race.

Six, wokeism is a dangerous diversion of American resources.

The United States may have sponsored gender studies programs, flown pride flags, and bragged of George Floyd murals in Kabul. But meanwhile its military suffered the most humiliating defeat in a half-century, as it skedaddled from Afghanistan, leaving behind billions of dollars in deadly arms for terrorists.

Our elite work to ban plentiful natural gas, subsidize transgender activism abroad, and lecture on sexual identities in the military. Chinas elite builds dozens of coal and nuclear plants, and doubles the size of its navy, while preparing to absorb Taiwan.

Americans are rejecting wokeism because they finally are realizing that if they do not, they will not have a civilization left.

Wisconsin has once again been cast into the national spotlight this time calling upon Wisconsin legislators to fund the Office of School Safety.

National school safety advocates Monday are urging Wisconsin lawmakers to reverse the Republican controlled Joint Committee on Finance refusal to fund the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of School Safety (OSS) to ensure the office can continue its mission: Saving lives and keeping our Wisconsin children safe.

Office of School Safety trainings and programs follow national best practices, helping to ensure that high-quality school safety resources are available to Wisconsin schools, said Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul.

We need to keep these resources in place, not leave our schools and our kids without them, Kaul added.

OSS was created with bipartisan support in 2018 in response to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Fla. and has proven to be a critical resource for students, teachers, school administrators, and educational communities across the state of Wisconsin implementing practices proven to prevent violence in schools, Kaul added.

As previously reported by the Wisconsin Law Journal, Wisconsin was in the national spotlight prior to the April election.

This is a state where progressivism was started with Robert La Follette. This is where it all began. People around the country looked to Wisconsin for how democracy should be perfected. And now, people are looking at Wisconsin yet again, to see how democracy can be saved. That is whats at stake, said former Attorney General Eric Holder during a campaign event in April for Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Janet Protasiewicz.

Also as previously reported by the Wisconsin Law Journal, at a time when the State of Wisconsin has a record $6.6 billion surplus, the Republican-controlled Joint Finance Committee (JFC) approved a motion earlier in June effectively cutting all funds for school safety and only approved only a fraction of what Gov. Tony Evers requested for the Wisconsin Department of Justices budget.

Also as previously reported by the Wisconsin Law Journal, both Republican and Democrat Wisconsin officials stood in solidarity earlier in June advocating for additional funds for Wisconsins Crime Lab. The Criminal Justice Coalition gathered in Madison expressing support for critical investments needed to be made in Wisconsins criminal justice system. Among those investments, Toney made a case or additional toxicologists.

Earlier this month, Kaul released a statement critical of the Joint Committee on Finance vote on the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) budget.

There is nothing more important than keeping our kids safe, and yet the Joint Finance Committee took action today that would gut the Office of School Safety. Without prompt legislative action to remedy this issue, core services that office has providedincluding the 24/7 tip line that has received thousands of contactswill end, said Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul.

On June 22, Kaul met with law enforcement officials and school leaders in Milwaukee County asking Wisconsin legislators to urgently fund the Wisconsin Department of Justice Office of School Safety (OSS) before Federal dollars dry up.

On Monday, June 26, 2023, several officials are slated to speak in Madison advocating for Wisconsins Office of School Safety.

Max Schachter, a national school safety advocate and parent of one of the students killed in the Parkland, Fla. shooting, has been urging Wisconsin lawmakers to fund OSS for months. Schacter provided the following statement regarding OSS funding.

Its sad that after 17 people were murdered in the Parkland school shooting, including my sweet little boy Alex, there are still legislatures, like in Wisconsin, that think it wont happen in their state. Thankfully a school shooting the scale of Parkland hasnt happened YET; due in large part to the good work of the Wisconsin Office of School Safety. The Wisconsin legislatures decision not to fund the ongoing training and Speak Up, Speak Out program I believe will lead to disastrous consequences. Schools will be less prepared to respond when tragedy strikes because the OSS will have canceled their critical response training. Children struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts wont have the trained analysts in the Speak Up, Speak Out program to talk to, and when kids know that someone is planning a school shooting the program designed to prevent it will be closed, Schachter said.

In the five years since my son Alex was murdered in the Parkland school shooting, Florida has moved mountains to make schools safer throughout our state. Very soon our office will be staffed with over 30 personnel. We have allocated over $1 Billion for school safety and $500 million for mental health funding. In all of our 4,000+ schools we have a school safety officer, threat assessment teams, directors of school safety and mental health coordinators. I could go on and onMost importantly, our leaders understand that safety comes before education, because you cant teach dead kids. Wisconsin should NOT wait for tragedy to strike before their leaders take the safety and security of their schools seriously, Schachter added.

OSS staff provide trainings that follow national best practices related to crisis prevention and response, at no cost to any Wisconsin school that requests it. They also developed and maintain critical incident response teams for every region of Wisconsin, and they established and run the Speak Up, Speak Out Resource Center, including the 24-hour tipline. OSS has also distributed nearly $100 million in grants for safety enhancements, threat assessment training, and mental health training to public, private, charter, and tribal schools throughout Wisconsin, according to Wisconsin DOJ officials.

Michele Gay is the executive direct of Safe and Sound Schools, she is also the mother of Josephine Gay, who was killed at Sandy Hook School. Safe and Sound Schools partnered with OSS when developing Speak Up, Speak Out.

Safe and Sound Schools believe the safety of Wisconsins students and school staff are the greatest priority of its citizens. We are proud to have partnered with the Office of School Safety as it built a statewide reporting program, Speak Up, Speak Out; provided critical technical assistance to school communities; supported school communities in prevention, response and recovery (including the community of Barron, Wis., during the kidnapping and recovery of a student); and conducted statewide threat assessment trainings, intervening on behalf of students in crisis and protecting against acts of targeted violence, said Michele Gay. We urge Wisconsin legislators to stand up for students and school communities and continue funding OSS to provide for the critical needs of school safety at this unprecedented time of need in our schools and communities, Gay said.

Susan Payne is the Founder and Former Executive Director of the Safe2Tell non-profit prevention initiative developed as a response to the Columbine tragedy in Colorado. She also served as a special agent for the state of Colorado and is a nationally recognized school safety expert. Payne worked closely with OSS staff to develop Wisconsins Speak Up, Speak Out 24/7 confidential reporting system, DOJ officials noted.

In the past 24 years since Columbine, the stark reality of lessons learned in tragedies involving students and mass attacks of violence, that our best chance of preventing them is to have a school community that knows how to identify the warning signs, a bystander reporting system to report those concerns combined with trained multi-discipline teams to respond at the school and community level, said Payne.

Combining that with training on the United States Secret Service threat assessment model and crisis response will provide a comprehensive prevention framework for safer students, safer staff and safer communities. Im proud to say that this strategy has been a bipartisan supported solution that works, Payne added.

Speak Up, Speak Out

On September 1, 2020, OSS launched Speak Up, Speak Out (SUSO), a 24/7 statewide confidential reporting system free to all Wisconsin schools. SUSO is a comprehensive, one-stop place to turn with important concerns, offering a Threat Reporting System, Threat Assessment Consultation, Critical Incident Response and General School Safety Guidance. SUSO aims to promote the reporting of concerns before violence happens, according to Wisconsin DOJ.

SUSO Fast Facts

Students, parents, school staff, or any community members can submit a school safety concern or threat via the SUSO website, mobile phone application, or toll-free number.

SUSO Reports can be made 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:

John-Michael Keyes, co-founder of the I Love You Guys Foundation, a national organization that provides school and community safety and family reunification programs, has collaborated and partnered with OSS since its inception.

I urge the State of Wisconsin to prioritize funding for the Office of School Safety to ensure that our students, staff, and communities have secure learning, teaching, and visiting environments, said Keyes. Lets work together to make our schools the safest they can be, Keyes added.

OSS Training

OSS staff are certified to train a variety of courses that follow national best practices related to violence prevention, protection, mitigation, crisis response and recovery. OSS offers these trainings free of charge to any school or law enforcement agency in Wisconsin that requests it. Trainings offered in Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management (BTAM) equip school and law enforcement staff with the knowledge, protocol and model practices needed to determine if someone poses a threat to their school and how to intervene effectively based on the level of concern posed. Crisis Intervention trainings equip school staff to respond effectively when a crisis event occurs in a way that will promote psychological recovery for all staff and students. Other trainings help school staff establish standardized response and reunification for any school crisis, from fires and floods to acts of violence. OSS staff continue to expand the trainings offered to ensure that Wisconsin schools have a comprehensive toolkit to help keep kids and school staff safe, Wisconsin DOJ officials noted.

School shootings are preventable. Two practices are proven to prevent school violence: an accessible, effective threat reporting system and BTAM. OSS leads the state in bringing both the practices to school. The U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) studied 41 incidents of targeted school violence that occurred at K-12 schools in the United States from 2008 to 2017, Wisconsin DOJ officials said.

According to their report, many of these tragedies could have been prevented, and supports the importance of schools establishing comprehensive targeted violence prevention programs as recommended by the Secret Service in Enhancing School Safety Using a Threat Assessment Model.

This approach is intended to identify students of concern, assess their risk for engaging in violence or other harmful activities, and implement intervention strategies to manage that risk. The threshold for intervention should be low, so that schools can identify students in distress before their behavior escalates to the level of eliciting concerns about safety, Wisconsin DOJ officials added.

OSS Training Fast Facts

Dr. Stephen Brock and Dr. Melissa Reeves, members of the National Association of School Psychologists and authors of the PREPaRE curriculum, have trained OSS staff in their model practices for school crisis prevention and response.

It is essential to have the capacity to respond to the aftereffects of school-associated crisis events. Our school age youth, because they are younger, are particularly vulnerable to having crisis event exposure result in health problems, said Steven Brock and Melissa Reeves.

These problems can have long lasting (even lifelong) effects and will result in academic failure and challenges to mental wellness, which in the long run will have greater costs than the small funding required to support school safety efforts. Brock and Reeves said.

Critical Incident Response Teams

In 2022, OSS established and trained twelve Critical Incident Response Teams (CIRTs) around the state. CIRTs are designed to provide all Wisconsin K-12 public, private, charter and tribal schools with access to a regionally based team to support them if a critical incident ever occurs at their school. Each CIRT is made up of volunteers who are part of a multi-disciplinary team. These teams include law enforcement officers, school administrators, counselors, psychologists, social workers, nurses, teachers, school safety experts, and representatives from other related professions. The mission of the CIRT program is to minimize the psychological impact of a school critical incident; provide resources to help stabilize the school community; work to identify individuals that may require long-term mental health services after a critical incident occurs; and offer support to school administrators and educators. Wisconsin is the first state to implement regionally based CIRTs on a statewide basis. Additional training academies are being held this summer, adding team members across the state, Wisconsin DOJ officials said.

CIR Fast Facts

OSS was initially supported by more than $2 million in federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance. OSS is currently supported by more than $1.8 million in American Rescue Plan Act funding which will end in December of 2023. Without additional funding, the critical services provided by OSS will cease to exist. Wisconsin DOJ has requested the legislature permanently fund OSS in the next biennial budget, Wisconsin DOJ officials added.

As previously reported by the Wisconsin Law Journal, all four JFC Democrats voted against the motion, which was introduced by Republicans Rep. Born and Sen. Marklein.
