For once a story I don’t need to drive 5 hours to cover – I’m here in Rochester, NY at a GM auto parts plant. 12 am passes and officially this plant is on strike. About 30mins later dozens of United Auto Workers walk out off the line. Tens of thousands of GM employees across…
Learn. Fight. Win.
A woefully incomplete guide to the people, books, and sites that you should be following to keep ahead of the rise of white extremists. Every time there is another white extremist-related incident or arrest I am reminded that the major news publications and cable networks are out of their depth. CNN just weeks ago had…

Anniversary of Alaska’s Fight Against Big Oil’s #SB21
Six years ago, I was in Alaska covering the fight against the oil companies take over of the Alaskan government under the guise of Senate Bill 21.

Patriot Prayer’s Joey Gibson has a sad day in Albany
Originally Published in NationofChange.org It’s been a hell of a week for Patriot Prayer’s Joey Gibson. First, he gets sued for a million dollars and then his “big” anti-choice rally in Albany, NY is a bust. The “Pro-Life rally for the innocent in NY” as it was promoted on Patriot Prayer’s facebook page was organized…

We were sent for the odd request that could only come from an international news agency like the BBC… gather sound. They didn’t need video, or pictures,…

Greg Palast for NationofChange.org When the young Kris Kobach created a computer system for the Department of Homeland Security that secretly tracked visiting Muslims, President George W. Bush was so offended that he personally ordered the racially offensive program shut down. And now Kobach may have power over that Department and all others dealing with…
