Cuba exports doctors, not weapons or bombs. Yet it has been the victim of Washington’s bipartisan economic, military and political war for over 60 years. Since the 1959 overthrow of the US-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista, by the revolution [...]

Possible White Nationalist Threats to So Cal Gay Pride/Freedom Events

An old law school pal of mine works in "targeted violence prevention". That means she's involved in a lot of efforts to combat and track white nationalist networks. She is very well and widely connected in her field. She shared, during a guest talk with my students, that there's been a lot of "chatter" through white nationalist networks (e.g. private message boards, and on white nationalist social media) in Southern California about [...]

“Cracks in the Abode of Death”

“Cracks in the Abode of Death” by Mumia Abu-Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/cracks-in-the-abode-of-death/ Few people really know the nature of death rows. It is used as a political prop by politicians and is thus a stepping stone to their gateway of power. But Death Row is really far more than that. It is a place where men and women and until recently even juveniles were sent to live and die in aching loneliness and despair. [...]
