Voting and legislating in Florida is being controlled by the Republicans, and there is nothing the Democrats can do but fight and organize. The legislature in Florida is controlled by Republicans in all the houses, and insanity is deciding what bills will be passed and signed by the governor. […]
America’s justice system has historically proven to be extremely partial towards wealthy white people and positively skewed for ordinary whites. It wasn’t by happenstance that a white privileged justice system and society were created. No, it’s chiseled into the cornerstones as well as the pillars of our democracy. The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines white Privilege as: “the set of social and economic advantages that white people have by virtue of their race.” […]
If Donald Trump is indicted by a Manhattan grand jury this morning (or tomorrow, or the next day), as both he and media reports predict, you can rest assured that another thing won’t be happening: his perp walk. […]
While President Biden certainly could have stopped Willow, so can the financial institutions helping create it. Willow is just the most recent example of banks’ complicity in preserving fossil fuel extraction through a continuing flow of money to Big Oil and Gas – all despite pledging a year ago to pursue the net zero carbon emissions we need to save the planet.

The Afghanistan’s War officially ended on August 30, 2021, as President Biden promised. However, the war was a failure and the withdrawal marred. The killing of thirteen soldiers and injuring of dozens of others during the withdrawals by a suicide bomber was without question a horrific incident.

“I think we all understand we have to be solutions driven. And the solutions are at hand,” Harris said at a climate summit earlier this month. “We need to make up for some lost time, no doubt. This is going to have an exponential impact on where we need to go.” […]
The research is copious and hard to refute that minority media ownership is dismally low and discrimination is prevalent and persistent in the media industry. Women and people of color who decide to make media their careers have fewer opportunities than their male or white peers. This lack of diversity and opportunity needs to change.
