MA Legislators, Governor and Boston Police Commissioner are all on junkets

It's an ominous prospect.

"The last thing Boston needs is training in Israeli-style racial profiling and surveillance, and in the violent suppression of nonviolent popular resistance such as that taking place on a weekly basis in the West Bank village of Bil’in.   And the last thing Massachusetts needs is the ‘Israel, right or wrong’ mentality and casual corruption that these junkets promote."

It’s junket season again in Massachusetts

Water is Life

"Water is Life, Life is Struggle" as Leonard Peltier reminds us in the 41st year of his unjust incarceration. Call 202-456-1111 and urge President Obama to release him.   

Water IS life and we cannot leave this issue for our children and grandchildren to deal with when things are far worse for the natural world then they are now.

And Mother Earth is already in struggle.

Let us Pledge to Work for Water Justice, from Standing Rock to Palestine

United in their quest for justice: Palestinians and Native Americans:

“If colonization will tear you down, solidarity will build you back up”—Lakota Elder

“As the dominant powers of the world maintain that our resistance as oppressed peoples and communities poses a greater threat to society than the immeasurable and all-encompassing violence of our oppressors, the partnership between Palestinians and Native Americans is neither surprising nor random.”
