  • America’s Irreplaceable Immigrants

    Every day when breakfast is served, Americans come face to face with the impact of immigrant workers without whom breakfast items would be too expensive for everyday consumption and/or if short on time, the nearest drive-through fast-food establishment, cars lined up for blocks, would charge an arm and a leg for a simple egg, cheese, […]

  • India’s Continuing War on Khalistan

    It was never a good look.  Advertised as the world’s largest, complex and most colourful of democracies, India’s approach to certain dissidents, notably of a Sikh patriotic sensibility, has not quite matched its lofty standing.  The strength of a liberal democratic state can be measured by the extent it tolerates dissent and permits the rabble […]

  • NEW: Portal for Tracking Genocidal Incitement Against Palestinians

  • Unrealisable Justice: Julian Assange in Strasbourg

    Unrealisable Justice: Julian Assange in Strasbourg

    It was good to hear that voice again. A voice of provoking interest that pitter patters, feline across a parquet, followed by the usual devastating conclusion. Julian Assange’s last public address was made in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. There, he was a guest vulnerable to the capricious wishes of changing governments. At Belmarsh Prison […]

  • Where was Amnesty International during the Genocide in Gaza?

  • Don’t Trust the Government. Not with Your Freedoms

    Don’t Trust the Government. Not with Your Freedoms

    In questions of power then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution. —Thomas Jefferson Public trust in the government to “do what is right” understandably remains at an all-time low. After all, how do you trust a government that continuously sidesteps […]

  • The Black Alliance for Peace Condemns U.S. Convictions of Uhuru 3 As A Fascist Farce

    After being forced to acquit Omali Yeshitela, Jesse Nevel, and Penny Hess – the “Uhuru 3” – on being agents of Russia, a U.S. federal court jury resorted to the sham conviction of “conspiracy,” in what amounted to them being guilty of internationalism and the work of liberating African people. The state’s claim is that […]

  • Overthrowing the Constitution: All Sides Are Waging War on Our Freedoms

    Overthrowing the Constitution: All Sides Are Waging War on Our Freedoms

    It is both apt and ironic that the anniversary of 9/11, which paved the way for the government to overthrow the Constitution, occurs the week before the anniversary of the day the U.S. Constitution was adopted on September 17, 1787. All sides are still waging war on our constitutional freedoms, and “we the people” remain […]

  • What It Means to Go Back-to-School in the American Police State

    What It Means to Go Back-to-School in the American Police State

    Every day in communities across the United States, children and adolescents spend the majority of their waking hours in schools that have increasingly come to resemble places of detention more than places of learning. —Investigative journalist Annette Fuentes It’s not easy being a child in the American police state. Danger lurks around every corner and […]
