The news corporate media won't touch, stories from the front lines of our movements to fight and build and just a dash of spoken word, visual art and snark. Blend and enjoy.

Sep 25, 2015

This week, Chris Hedges offers up some historical rebellion so we understand where we came from and where we're headed. Next up, Climate Camps and Klima Kamps show us how we could be living while teaching us how to dismantle the corporat-ocracy and finally Kevin Gosztola wants media and movements to work together, ensuring that every politician, corporate tool, law and legislation is shadowproof. But first, let's go face to face with one of those corporate tools.

This week, Margaret Flowers thinks it's about fucking time we got some more activists in the halls of the mighty – from occupying the streets to occupying Congress. Next up, here's how you can make your community an anti-corporate land of the free PLUS rice paper against the TPP and finally, let's google how NOT to be over-consuming, plastic ass hats. But first, YOU ARE an activist.

This week, grab your bicycle and give cars a well deserved middle finger in a world-wide initiative to cut emissions, get outside, move your ass and interact with your city and people. Next, let's talk Syria and why their story could so easily be ours – I'll give you a hint: climate change. Finally, peace in the middle east might not be a reality but the Iran deal could be – thanks to the tireless work of activists like Alli McCracken, director of Code Pink. And speaking of war and peace, we'll kick off this week by meeting these unknown, unwilling soldiers.

This week, we've got a veritable shit ton happening on the Front Lines so ready your calendars for this activist onslaught. From climate change to anti-war to fracking to pipelines of the school to prison kind, the summer lull is definitely over. Next, let's talk digital activism – small steps become leaps and it may start with one of these petitions. And finally, Timothy Almeida Jr., spoken word poet, artist, musician and custodian shares his rhymes and the life and times of the man behind the book, blog and podcast, the custodian chronicles. But first, let's make friends --- across enemy lines.
