  • Amazon Alabama Warehouse Workers May Get To Vote Again On Union

    wkar.org Tuesday, 3 August 2021 05:08:00

    Amazon warehouse workers in Alabama may get a second chance to vote on whether to form the company's first unionized warehouse in the United States. A federal labor official has found that Amazon's anti-union tactics tainted this spring's election sufficiently to scrap its results, according to the union that sought to represent the workers. The official is recommending a do-over of the unionization vote, the union said in a release. Amazon is expected to challenge the recommendation, which has not been released publicly yet. A regional director from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is expected to rule within weeks on whether to schedule a new election. NLRB representatives did not immediately respond to NPR's inquiry on Monday. In a high-profile vote tallied in April, workers in Bessemer, Ala., voted more than 2-to-1 against unionizing , delivering a stinging defeat to the biggest union push among Amazon's U.S. workers. The vote attracted nationwide attention, including from

  • Your Facebook Account Was Hacked. Getting Help May Take Weeks — Or $299

    wkar.org Tuesday, 3 August 2021 04:23:00

    Angela McNamara's first hint that her Facebook account had been hacked was an early-morning email warning someone was trying to log into her account. "If this is not you, don't worry, we're keeping your account safe," she recalls the email from Facebook saying. But her relief only lasted a minute, when another email arrived, saying her password had been changed. Then another, notifying her that a two-factor authentication — an extra layer of security — had been set up for her account. "And then from there I'm just like, OK, it is gone," said McNamara, who lives outside Toronto. She tried Facebook's automated process to recover her account: getting a backup code, resetting her password. But nothing worked. This has been happening to a lot of people lately, and the experience has left many users nearly as frustrated with the social network as they are with the hackers. In July, NPR received 19 emails from listeners complaining that their Facebook accounts had been hacked or disabled.

  • Mutaz Essa Barshim And Gianmarco Tamberi Share The Gold Medal In Olympic High Jump

    wkar.org Tuesday, 3 August 2021 03:26:00

    The duel between Olympic high jumpers Mutaz Essa Barshim of Qatar and Gianmarco Tamberi of Italy seemed destined to end in tears. Round after round, the two star athletes simply could not outdo one another — prompting an official to tell them the next step was a "jump-off," to see who could simply outlast the other. But that's when things took a turn — one that quickly became a symbol of the sportsmanship and friendship the Olympics were designed to create. "Can we have two golds?" Barshim, the reigning world champion in the event, asked the official. "It's possible, yes," the official replied — and that was all the athletes needed to hear. Barshim, 30, and Tamberi, 29, slapped hands and hugged, celebrating an unlikely dual finish atop the podium. Even before conferring with the official, the pair had been in a tight hug, congratulating each other on bringing out their best at the Tokyo Olympics. The elite athletes had soared above the rest of the field, posting perfect marks through

  • U.S. Baseball Team Loses To Japan, But It Still Has A Tight Path To Gold Medal Game

    wkar.org Tuesday, 3 August 2021 03:05:00

    Team USA's baseball squad lost a 7-6 nail-biter Monday to host nation Japan in extra innings, leaving the Americans with no room for error as they hope to play their way into the gold medal final. Facing the tournament's only other undefeated team, the U.S. had been poised for a pivotal win after grabbing a 6-3 lead. But Japan fought its way back and then forced extra innings after tying the score 6-6 in the bottom of the ninth. From there, the tension only built higher. Under Olympic rules, teams start extra innings with runners on both first and second base. In the top of the 10th, the U.S. couldn't bring its two runners home after a strikeout, a fielder's choice to second and a flyout. In the bottom of the frame, Japan used a sacrifice bunt to advance the runners to second and third, setting up a game-clinching at-bat. With former major leaguer Edwin Jackson on the mound for the U.S., Japan's Takuya Kai roped a sharp single to the right-field wall for a walk-off win at Yokohama

    ARI SHAPIRO, HOST: Amazon warehouse workers in Alabama may get a second chance to vote on whether to unionize. This is a breaking news development in the saga of a high-profile push to form the first unionized Amazon warehouse in America. NPR's Alina Selyukh is here to tell us about it. Hey, Alina. ALINA SELYUKH, BYLINE: Hello, hello. SHAPIRO: We've got to note that Amazon is one of NPR's financial supporters. Tell us what happened today. SELYUKH: So today, a federal Labor official opened the door to a potential do-over of one of the most closely watched union elections. It happened this spring, you might recall, at an Amazon warehouse in Bessemer, Ala., right outside Birmingham. And it was huge because it was, by far, the biggest unionization push at Amazon in the U.S., where Amazon is now the second-largest private employer. It was also huge because the warehouse itself is huge - nearly 6,000 people, potentially a big inroad into this very influential company for the unions. And it

    Copyright 2021 NPR. To see more, visit ARI SHAPIRO, HOST: Over the weekend, we got a snapshot of where part of the music industry stands right now on LGBT issues. The music festival Lollapalooza dropped rapper DaBaby from its lineup after he made homophobic remarks. And at the same time, the top two spots on YouTube's music video charts were both held by Lil Nas X, an artist whose videos unapologetically embrace queer Black sexuality. Those two singles are a big shift from his first viral chart-topper, this earworm from 2019. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "OLD TOWN ROAD") LIL NAS X: (Singing) Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road. I'm gonna ride till I can't no more. SHAPIRO: This shift in his artistry may also be part of a bigger change in the music industry. Jazmine Hughes explored that in a profile of Lil Nas X for the New York Times magazine. I asked her how Lil Nas X is paving the way for longevity. JAZMINE HUGHES: At some point during our time together, we were sitting at

  • Dutch Runner Who Fell During Her Race Went On To Win Gold. She's Aiming For 2 More

    wkar.org Monday, 2 August 2021 23:50:00

    It's undeniable: Sifan Hassan is killing it. Hassan, a long-distance runner representing the Netherlands at this year's Olympic Games, was powering through the last lap of the women's 1,500 meter heat on Monday when a nightmare situation came true: a runner ahead of her tripped, prompting a domino effect. Hassan tried and failed to jump over a fallen runner and then fell down herself. She was undeterred; she got back up and, now suddenly in last place, went on to pass 11 runners to finish first. "I can't believe it," she said after her win, according to Reuters . "I used all my energy this morning and I was kind of tired. I couldn't believe what happened. It was terrible when I tripped." "I felt terrible afterwards and I never thought I am going to be [an] Olympic champion," she continued. She then won gold in the 5,000 meter race It was an astonishing comeback, but it later became clear that Hassan, a world champion, was just getting started. She went on to win gold in the women's 5

  • 'Afterparties' Is A Bittersweet Triumph For A Fresh Voice Silenced Too Soon

But its 28-year-old author, Anthony Veasna So, died unexpectedly last December. Our book critic Maureen Corrigan says these nine stories, mostly about first-generation Cambodian Americans navigating differences with their parents' generation of education, sexuality and possibility are a bittersweet triumph. MAUREEN CORRIGAN, BYLINE: It's impossible to talk about "Afterparties," the much-heralded short story collection by Anthony Veasna So, without first talking about its backstory. So died this past December of a drug overdose. He was only 28. Most readers who pick up this collection will already know about So's death. And yet I'm guessing that, like me, a fair number of those readers will be in denial as they're reading these short stories. His voice is so alive - smart, flip, funny, rude, sexually

  • Some States Are Working To Prevent COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates

    wkar.org Monday, 2 August 2021 23:21:00

    As COVID-19 cases surge , the federal government and some private employers are requiring their workers to show proof of vaccination. Plus, certain cities and localities are once again requiring masks indoors. Some states, however, are not just ordering more precautions, but already moving to stop vaccination mandates in the future. Hemi Tewarson of the National Academy for State Health Policy is tracking state legislatures for such bills, and spoke to Morning Edition 's A Martínez about what she's seeing . Notably: As of late last week, 9 states have enacted 11 laws with prohibitions on vaccine mandates (Arizona and Arkansas have each enacted two). They weren't all introduced or enacted at this stage of the pandemic — in fact, some were introduced back in February and March, and the most recent took effect in late June. Some of these laws are tied only to vaccinations that have emergency use authorization, so the prohibition will no longer apply if the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines get

  • Myanmar's Military Leader Declares Himself Prime Minister And Promises Elections

    wkar.org Monday, 2 August 2021 22:38:00

    BANGKOK — Six months after seizing power from the elected government, Myanmar's military leader on Sunday declared himself prime minister and said he would lead the country under the extended state of emergency until elections are held in about two years. "We must create conditions to hold a free and fair multiparty general election," Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing said during a recorded televised address. "We have to make preparations. I pledge to hold the multiparty general election without fail." He said the state of emergency will achieve its objectives by August 2023. In a separate announcement, the military government named itself "the caretaker government" and Min Aung Hlaing the prime minister. The state of emergency was declared when troops moved against the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi on Feb. 1, an action the generals said was permitted under the military-authored 2008 constitution. The military claimed her landslide victory in last year's national elections was

  • Israel's High Court Floats Proposal To Solve The Flash Point That Sparked War In Gaza

    wkar.org Monday, 2 August 2021 21:38:00

    JERUSALEM — Israel's Supreme Court on Monday floated a compromise that would prevent the evictions of dozens of Palestinians in the east Jerusalem of Sheikh Jarrah, where attempts by Jewish settlers to expel them from their homes helped spark an 11-day war between Israel and Gaza militants in May. The cases examined Monday involve four Palestinian families numbering a total of about 70 people. Lower Israeli courts have approved the evictions of the four families. They ruled that their houses were built on land owned by Jews before Israel was established in 1948. But weighing a last-ditch appeal from the residents, the court suggested a compromise that would give them "protected" status. The deal would protect them from eviction for many years, but leave the question of legal ownership unanswered, said Ahmad Amara, a consultant to the residents' legal team. He said the court gave the sides one week to respond. The Supreme Court had been scheduled to issue a ruling in May, but it delayed

    If watching Olympic competitions has been sparking a bit of anxiety, you might want to turn to knitting — British diver Tom Daley certainly has. Photos of Daley knitting what appears to be a pink-purple-blue pouch of sorts were posted all over social media Sunday when the athlete sat in the stands watching the women's springboard diving event in Tokyo. As of Monday morning, it appears Daley is working on another project, using white yarn. Daley knits during the preliminary round of the men's 3-meter springboard Monday at the Games. Stephen McCarthy / Sportsfile via Getty Images Daley said on Instagram that knitting has become his way of "finding calm, mindfulness and [it] relieves stress." He even has a separate knitting account , called "Made with love by Tom Daley," where he posts his creations — including doggie jumpers — that he sells to raise money for charity. "One thing that has kept me sane throughout this whole process is my love for knitting and crochet and all things

  • Trans Athlete Laurel Hubbard Has Made Olympic History Competing In Individual Event

    wkar.org Monday, 2 August 2021 20:49:00

    Laurel Hubbard has made history by becoming the first openly transgender athlete to compete in an individual event at the Summer Olympics. The New Zealand weightlifter did not make the podium, after failing to advance to the final. Competing in the 87+kg class on Monday, Hubbard struggled to lift 125 kg (275 pounds), putting her out of the running. Her official result is "did not finish," as she bowed out after failing to record a clean lift in the snatch section of the two-part competition. Hubbard had seemed to successfully lift the weight in her second of three attempts, but in a split decision, the judges ruled she had not held the bar steady above her head. Despite not reaching the final round, Hubbard smiled and cupped her hands together in a heart gesture before walking off the stage at the Tokyo International Forum. "My performance wasn't what I had hoped, but I'm humbled by the support I've received from so many people around New Zealand," she said , adding, "I am aware that
