Unarmed Mike Brown is Gunned Down
“the kid’s body jerked as if he was hit from behind and he turned around and he puts his hands up like this, and the cop continued to fire, until he just dropped down to the ground and his face smacked the concrete.”
Tasers can be Lethal Weapons, It’s Time Our Police Departments Figured this Out
“Advocacy groups like Amnesty International have argued that Tasers, the most widely used of a class of weapons known as electrical control devices, are potentially lethal and that stricter rules should govern their use.”
Only Eight in U.S. Congress Willing to Support the People of Gaza
Where is the “Iron Dome” to protect the people in Gaza?
Why are their lives not worth as much as Israeli lives?
Boycott, Divest and Sanction Israel until the land grabs and murders end
“Until Israel stops the killing, ends the occupations and observe the rule of law…, we must Boycott products and companies, Divest (target corporations), and Impose Sanctions to deprive Israel of funding while they commit war crimes.”
Debunking the myths about Gaza
To personalize this for a moment, imagine a bully sitting on a smaller child, and every time someone objects to the fact that the bully is beating the smaller child with an iron rod, the bully exclaims, “Well, he tried to slap me, so I was forced to defend myself.” No, you can’t claim that you’re beating the smaller child with an iron rod in self-defense, especially when you can end the entire confrontation simply by getting off him. Back to the political reality, Norman Finkelstein put it best: “The refrain that Israel has the right to self-defense is a red herring: the real question is, does Israel have the right to use force to maintain an illegal occupation? The answer is no.”

About Unions
“History is a great teacher. Now everyone knows that the labor movement did not diminish the strength of the nation but enlarged it. By raising the living standards of millions, labor miraculously created a market for industry and lifted the whole nation to undreamed of levels of production. Those who attack labor forget these simple truths, but history remembers them.”
~Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
