Now displaying: November, 2015

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.

This week, let's take a peak at the TPP uprising in DC last week and get inspired to jump on board for the next one.

Next, money in politics may not be the sexiest issue to talk about but it is the biggest – from tweets to marching in the streets, here are some bad ass ways to join the fight.

Next, inaction is dangerous game, Stuart Schuffman aka broke ass stuart talks living cheaply and running for mayor, and finally, opt outside, don't buy shit and happy thanksgiving.

But first, let me muse on a muse I once came across ---- peddling tunes on a crowded street late afternoon.

This week: since when did stupidity become so popular? I guess since dinosaurs wore saddles – yes, saddles.

Next up, education is a right and it's time to stop treating students like customers at a luxury store.

#BlackOnCampus sheds light on the sweeping issue of racism in our schools and let these be calls to action for all students – time to rise up, we've been silent too long.

Next, can't see the dying forest through the green-washing and finally, nous sommes unis.

But first, we knocked something over – now we need to clean it up.

Let's start with something non-controversial: race issues. A brief but important little segment specifically designed for my fellow white people.

Next up, fuck big banks – move your money and starve the beast.

Next, Uncle Sam hates immigrants, but he doesn't mind making money off of 'em – immigrant detention centers and the sanctuary across the road – Sarah Jackson's casa de paz.

Then we've got 7 reasons why this corporate coup matters to you and finally, Obama busts a move. But first, perception's reality – scene.
