Ancestors and Hearts:

The Spirit of the French Revolution Today © by Mumia Abu-Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/ancestors-hearts-spirit-of-the-french-revolution-today/ My dear brothers and sisters in Paris and throughout France, especially the young ones, the students: What you are doing is remarkable, and wonderful. And it reminds me, at the best of time, when the French are in rebellion, they are in contact with their revolutionary ancestors. There's a difference between the French and the Americans. The Americans like to [...]

How UN Action Can End the Genocide in Gaza

by Nicolas J. S. Davies In July 2025, the UN General Assembly organized a “High-level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution.” The conference was chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, and its goal was “not only to reaffirm international consensus on the peaceful settlement of the question of Palestine but to catalyze concrete, timebound and coordinated international action toward the [...]

Capitalism & Colonialism are the Disaster – Solidarity & Liberation are the Solution

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action-Los Angeles/People Against Racist Terror (ARA-LA/PART) https://antiracist.org/rebuilding-los-angeles/ The incineration of large parts of the Los Angeles area represents the extent to which settler colonial capitalism has sown the wind and reaped the whirlwind. It is the outcome of generations, centuries, of exploitation, land theft, genocide, privatization, gentrification, fossil fuel extraction and other social ills, economic crimes, and political malfeasance. In the wake of the massive and ongoing destruction, [...]

Highlights and Lowlights of 2024

By Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action LA Some stories made a lot of news but not much difference in 2024. Some really significant stories and developments went unreported in the corporate media, and sometimes even the left press. The genocidal Israeli attacks on Palestinians, fully backed and financed by the US, entered its second year, and expanded into Israeli attacks on Lebanon, Yemen and Iran, as well as the swift US-Turkiye-Israel invasions into [...]

Laws taking effect in CA January 1, 2025

From multiple reporting sources New laws in CA seek to prevent the use of digital replicas of Hollywood actors and performers without permission and to allow the estates of dead performers to sue over unauthorized AI use. Parents who make money on social media posts featuring their children will be required to set aside some earnings for the kids. The new allows children to sue their parents for failing to do so.

KPFK Local Station Board Faces Gestapo-Like Policies

By Bella De Soto In the past 2 months, a set of Gestapo-like disciplinary policies have taken center stage at meetings of the KPFK Local Station Board, instead of the Agenda itself!  Most KPFK local Station Board Committees like the Governance, Finance and Outreach committee have been closed down (Outreach was combined with Fundraising). The agenda for the next meeting, Jan. 12, 2025 at 10:30 AM Pacific, was posted at: https://www.kpftx.org/    [...]

Listen, Rulers – This is Your Final Warning

CORPORATE WELFARE, THE PENTAGON, AND THE PRIVATIZATION OF PARADISE by an Anonymous  20-something      Ecce- hostis humani generis: sic semper tyranis. Quid pro quo, hostis humani generis? Quid pro quo? Rest in Hell, Brian Thompson. God Bless Luigi Mangione. Our industries have all been summarily replaced with racketeering schemes, the proceeds of which are being funneled into offshore accounts, killing the working economy, the people, and the planet, killing for money without remorse. This includes [...]

Will Trump Take Jimmy Carter’s Advice This Time?

by Medea Benjamin & Nicolas J. S. Davies [Excerpts] With President Jimmy Carter’s passing and Donald Trump about to return to the White House, it’s a good time to recall a phone conversation that Carter had with Trump during his first term. Carter’s advice would serve Trump well if he really wants to fulfill his campaign promise to Put America First–something he failed to do in his first term. In April 2019, [...]

Counterpoint: No Peace with the GOP or Dems!

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action Los Angeles I agree with Steve Edinger about the warmongering and imperialist nature of the Democratic Party, the Biden-Harris administration, and the Harris-Walz campaign, and the threat Democratic Party forces pose to Pacifica. But to see the Republican Party, or figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene as legitimate opponents of war or intervention, or worthy of our support, is a dangerous illusion. As Steve himself acknowledges, only 21 [...]

The End of Empire?

©2024 11/18/24 by Mumia Abu-Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/the-end-of-empire/ For years I’ve studied the histories of empires, especially their rise and their fall. Europe’s most illustrious example, Rome, grew from a city to a state and finally a world empire. When their men tired of fighting, they trained non-Romans in their war tactics, and when they were treated with contempt by Romans, they responded by sacking the city and stealing their treasure before leaving. It [...]

G20 Knocks Out G7 Agendas

G20 Knocks Out G7 Agendas [Excerpts] By Pepe Escobar / The Cradle The G20 summit in Rio earlier this week offered the quite intriguing spectacle of a deeply divided world, geo-politically and geo-economically, trying to put on a brave ‘holiday in the sun’ face. With Rio providing the ultimately gorgeous set, at the very least, tempers at the renovated Museum of Modern Art, the G20 venue with the Sugarloaf in the background, [...]
