Not a Drop to Drink
Maude Barlow
Many know Coleridge’s Rime of the Ancient Mariner and its famous “Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.” Perhaps less known is Mark Twain’s, “Whiskey’s for drinking, water’s for fighting.” Today, the UN warns, “Too often, where we need water, we find guns. As the global economy grows, so will its thirst. Many more […]
Organize: Honoring Howard Zinn
Bill Moyers
Joe Hill, born in Sweden, emigrated to the United States in 1902, where he became a migrant laborer. When he was a dockworker in California, Hill joined the Industrial Workers of the World, the IWW. He traveled widely, writing political songs, making speeches and organizing workers under the IWW banner. In 1915, while working in […]
Q&A with Citizens Opposed to Fracking
Thomas Linzey
In this question and answer session, environmental attorney Thomas Linzey speaks with citizens of Fort Collins and surrounding Colorado communities who oppose hydraulic fracturing. He says social change happens through confrontation and movement building, which means doing more than just appealing polluters’ permits. The goal, says Linzey, is enacting and implementing environmental law. A “seat […]
Race & Caste in the U.S.
Michelle Alexander
A string of shootings of young African Americans has generated national and international attention. While these killings are nothing new, the proliferation of cell phones, cameras and social media has raised public awareness of police brutality. Systemic questions are being asked. What is the role of racism? The numbers are depressingly familiar. The United States […]
Reel Bad Arabs
Jack Shaheen
Hollywood is good at stereotypes. Simple struggles of good versus evil, heroes against villains, can be a safe bet for box office success. Those stereotypes can have a strong impact in the real world. Film is a powerful force for shaping our imagination and our perception of reality. For decades, one of Hollywood’s favorite villains […]
Resurgent Fascism: The Beast Reawakens
Martin Lee
Fascism did not end with Hitler’s suicide in his Berlin bunker. In the immediate aftermath of the Second World War, the U.S. recruited and protected Nazi war criminals. It was all part of the emerging Cold War conflict. The unseemly alliances yielded some very unsavory consequences with effects still evident today in the revival of […]
Revoking Corporate Charters
Richard Grossman
Corporations, Corporations. From ExxonMobil to Wal-Mart they dominate society and politics. Over the last 100 years corporations have accrued enormous economic power and legal standing. A corporation is licensed to do business. These licenses are called charters. In theory, when a corporation violates its charter, it can be revoked. That used to happen but not […]
Revolts and Rebellions
Arundhati Roy
Beyond the hoopla of robust growth rates and hype about the world’s largest democracy, India is beset by major revolts and rebellions over a vast area. Some, like the one in Kashmir, are for independence. Others, like the multiple uprisings in what the media call the “Red Corridor” are for the overthrow of the government. […]
Selma 1965
Martin Luther King
Archival sound from one of the most important actions of the Civil Rights movement. Features a 30-minute speech by Dr Martin Luther King, Jr on “The Pharaohs Never Give Up Easily.” Many consider the Selma to Montgomery marches, marred by state and local police attacks, as political and emotional peaks of the movement. The day […]
Shredding the Constitution
Glenn Greenwald
The Constitution is often referred to in reverential, almost sacred terms. Its framers too are endowed with near holy qualities. Politicians vie with one another as they pay lip service to the country’s founding document. But over the years from the Palmer Raids to political witch-hunts known as McCarthyism to COINTELPRO to the present, the […]
Single Payer Health Care
Bernie Sanders
The health care debate is in full swing. The statistics are well known. Tens of millions of Americans have no coverage at all; many more have huge gaps in their benefits. The Clintons crisscross the country promoting their managed competition plan. Others offer varying counterproposals. One alternative is the Canadian model. Canada has a single […]
Solidarity: An Injury To One Is An Injury To All
Elaine Bernard
Andrew Carnegie, nineteenth-century financier and steel magnet, once said, “The greatest discovery of my life is that the men who do the work never get rich.” Carnegie knew what he was talking about. He made a fortune off the toil of others. Working people are still getting the short end of the stick. While productivity […]
