text Unstable Foundations Rebecca Solnit 2007-03-21 10:11 PM
New Orleans represents what Republicans promise when they call for shrinking down government. Residents struggling to remain in the stricken city or return home find little assistance - but rather, great resistance - from government at all levels. Still, the author sees hope among people who "are doing it for themselves" with assistance from thousands of volunteers from all across the nation. Katrina, writes the author, "is not even half over." (text/plain)

text Gary Tyler's Quest for Justice DAVE ZIRIN 2007-03-21 5:50 PM
The history of the American legal system is scarred with instances of injustice: the Haymarket martyrs, Sacco and Vanzetti, the Scottsboro Boys, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. Add to this list the case of Gary Tyler, convicted of murder at the age of 16. Tyler's case was remarkable because at the time of his 1975 conviction, he was the nation's youngest death-row inmate. The spotlight dimmed when his sentence was commuted to life without the possibility of parole in 1977, a year after the US Supreme Court declared Louisiana's death penalty unconstitutional.

text pleasure of the president J. America 2007-03-20 6:35 PM
US Attorneys don't serve "the pleasure of the president", they serve freedom lovers dedicated to defending America from willful criminality. But, americans are too stupidly weak to demand Coast to Coast hosts allow open communications on America's highest of concerns. Bushite america would rather, in silence, thieve from God as our Humanity, than serve the protections of Justice as ourselves. (text/plain)

text Schwarzenegger Betrays Students on Tuitions Stewart A. Alexander 2007-03-20 5:43 PM
Advocate groups for free education consider the recent tuition hikes for UC and CSU students to be no less than a tax on college students. California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has done nothing to make education affordable for students since he was elected in 2003. In the past the governor’s office has made it clear that education is a right for K-12, but not for higher education. (text/plain)

Is Iran Next? What can the average person do to stop a new war with Iran?
Marches, petitions, calls, and faxes to congress are important channels for political action, but what could possibly stop a new war with Iran? One has to wonder, are our congressional leaders even reading their faxes? A notable website called www.isirannext.org recently published over 80 names and organizations of people whom directly influence policy and the president. Maybe through side channels, average Americans can get their message through. (image/jpeg)

The following audio and pictures are from the picket outside Northrop Grumman, taken on March 14th. (audio/mpeg)

Until all of us recognize that we will never be able to live lives free from the fear of violence until we see ourselves as one interwoven, unseperateable community that cannot be a great place to live until their is not desperate, hopeless people living among us, we will always have these problems. We need to demand politicians do whatever is necessary to relieve the despair, hopelessness, and desperation so many in our city grow up to have inside them, to raise the poor and uneducated up so we can ALL have a safe place to call home, because there is no other alternative if true safety is our goal.
