What Larry Krasner the District Attorney of Philadelphia needs to do!
Last night, Philly DA Larry Krasner was asked by journalist Shaun King about Mumia Abu-Jamal. Krasner made a joke out of Mumia supporters' demands by saying he has no "magic key" to let Mumia out. Mumia's supporters have concrete demands, including a Color of Change petition and a 40-page newspaper meticulously presenting evidence in support of the petition. Noelle Hanrahan from San Francisco's Prison presents her challenge to DA Krasner...

Pam Africa asks DA Krasner: Do You Oppose Lynchings?
Journalist Shaun King recently asked Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner about Mumia Abu-Jamal. Krasner responds by making a joke out of the situation, claiming he has no "magic key" to release Mumia. However, in his Feb. 3 brief, Krasner does explicitly choose to endorse the whitewashing of the attempted police lynching of Mumia the morning of Dec. 9, 1981. In fact, he appears to make a joke about it, claiming that Mumia "refused to walk" into the hospital. In this article, Pam Africa directly res...

Asia's Future
"Europe derived great power and huge profits from colonizing Asia, Asia has grown amazingly because of American and European outsourcing, and now the United States and Europe are propped up by infusions of Asian investment and talent. This is the true nature of the global system, not multipolar competition." Anyone who wants to understand the world today should read this book very carefully....

Nazi Trump May Campaign to Recall Gov Newsom
March 17, 2021 is the official filing deadline for the Republican Recall petitions to recall Democratic Gov Newsom and the Republican Party claims they have enough because the threshold is so low, about 12% of voters in the last election. It should be 25% of voters. AUTOMATICALLY, if the recall succeeds, a Republican governor will be installed who by definition opposes an increase in the minimum wage, opposes abortion, and supports Nazi Trump....

Salmon seasons slashed on much of California Coast due to low Sacramento, Klamath fish numbers
The question now is whether Governor Gavin Newsom, the State Water Resources Control Board and CDFW will make sure the fish get enough water to thrive or will they give the water to almond and hay exporters, while continuing to push new dams and the Delta Tunnel, noted Regina Chichizola, the co-director of Save California Salmon.
“Most California cities are doing their job to conserve water and they are also impacted by the poor water quality in our rivers due to agricultural withdrawals a...

Groups Sue California's Kern County for Fast-Tracking Over 40,000 New Oil and Gas Wells
it was clear from the meeting that the Kern County Board of Supervisors is beholden to the Western States Petroleum Association, the largest corporate lobbying group in California, the California Independent Petroleum Association, and the oil companies. The Board rubber-stamped the ordinance because of the many millions of dollars the oil industry has spent in lobbying and campaign donations in Kern County and throughout the state....
