The articles below are stories from water and environmental struggles in Flint, West Virginia, St. Louis, and Baltimore. With these stories we continue to expose the increased poisoning, fracking, rising price, and privatization of our life-sustaining water by giant corporations. As corporations try to buy up everything public, destroying the Earth in the process, people are standing up, demanding that government do what it is supposed to do: keep water affordable and safe, and away from big money interests, and defend the Earth. Water warriors are pointing to the need for a national movement that unites us all in this fight. The People’s Tribune opens its pages to this fight. Send stories to info@peoplestribune.org or via our website at peoplestribune.org.

ICE is Today’s Slave Patrols

As we celebrate Black History Month, we are again reminded that Black history is at the heart of US history. This is because it has shaped what happens in this country in so many ways, and continues to do so. A case in point is the parallels between the pre-Civil War slave patrols of the 19th century and the ICE/Border Patrol abductions of immigrants in the US today.

We Don’t Just Live Through History, We Make it

Good and Pretti must not have died in vain. We too must escalate, peacefully, strategically, and creatively. We must mobilize at all levels, including organized study of social and historical development. For we are not just feet and voices, but minds and spirits.

By the end of his first year in power, Hitler had around 50,000 people in roughly 70 concentration camps. In the US today, ICE has more than 70,000 people in over 225 concentration camps, and the government wants to more than double both numbers in the coming months.
