  • The US Supreme Court Corruption Bonanza

    When ProPublica’s investigation into links between Republican donor Harlan Crow and the US Supreme Court surfaced, there was a sense that dark waters lurked beneath the revelations.

  • Israel’s Systemic Targeting of Journalists

    Israel’s Systemic Targeting of Journalists

    Tomorrow marks one year since veteran journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was murdered by the Israeli military while covering an Israeli invasion of Jenin refugee camp.

  • King Charles III: Policing the Republican Protests

    In Britain, pageantry has always been a palliative and plaster for the dark and dismal. Be it in times of crisis, the chance to put on an extravagant show, usually at vast expense, is not something to forego. Central to this entertainment complex is the Royal family, that archaic vestige of an era that refuses […]

  • Hypocritical Commemorations

    Selected days for commemoration serve one fundamental purpose. Centrally, they acknowledge the forgotten or neglected, while proposing to do nothing about it.

  • UnFreedom Day to be Marked in Three Provinces

    Impoverished people are not free, and when the ANC and the government lie to us and tell us that we are free they insult our intelligence and our humanity. We are not free because we are assassinated and murdered by the izinkabi and the police. We are not free because our homes are attacked and […]

  • The War on Free Speech Is Really a War on the Right to Criticize the Government

    Since when have we Americans been expected to bow submissively to authority and speak with awe and reverence to those who represent us?
