In a passionate showing of will to save humanity and save the Earth from corporate destruction, on September 8 in San Francisco, 30,000 people joined hundreds of thousands of protesters worldwide in more than 90 countries to demand action on climate change. In the largest climate march ever on the West Coast, marchers from all walks of life called for an end to the use of fossil fuels and declared support for California SB 100, just passed, which mandates 100% renewable energy in California by 2045. Although passage of the bill is significant—California is the 5th largest economy in the world—it will not stem the corporations’ drive for growth and profits which fuels the climate crisis. It will take millions of people uniting around a vision of a totally new society where we can reclaim and stabilize the Earth, and humanty.

Epstein Files Reveal Horrible Abuses of Children and Unspeakable Depravity

The depravity of the wealthy and powerful revealed by the Epstein files shows that these people have no morals and they don't care about the rest of us. We have to demand that the full truth be exposed and that there is justice for the survivors.

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.
