Revolt of the Black Athlete: The hidden history of Muhammad Ali |
Submitted by: David Zirin / 06 Feb 2004
Publisher: Inernational Socialist Review
|
|
Said Julian Bond, "When Ali refused to take that symbolic step forward everyone knew about it moments later. You could hear people talking about it on street corners. It was on everybody’s lips. People who had never thought about the war–Black and white–began to think it through because of Ali." |

The Awesome Destructive Power of the Corporate Power Media |
Submitted by: Tom Klammer / 03 Feb 2004
Publisher: The Black Commentator
|
The Dean meltdown, the rise of Kerry- the people have spoken, or the corporate media have chosen?
...It is self-evident that George Bush, who should have been buried under a glacier of scandal and criminality within months of entering the White House, enjoys the full-time protection of the corporate press. Their institutional intention is to elect him again. |

Letter from Brazil: One year of ‘Lula’ |
Submitted by: Gary Dotterman / 30 Jan 2004
Publisher: PWW
|
It is one year since Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the former metalworker and leader of Brazil’s left-wing Workers Party, was elected president of the country. I am in Rio de Janeiro, trying to find out what the people think about the country today and the president after his first year in office.

Cuba: The Next Forty-Five Years? |
Submitted by: AB / 14 Jan 2004
Publisher: Monthly Review
|
|
This year Cuba will be celebrating the forty-fifth anniversary of its victorious revolution: a great historic achievement. And when we bear in mind that the Cuban revolution—the long sustained action of a nation of just eleven million people—survived for forty-five years against all odds, successfully confronting the declared enmity, the U.S.-dictated international political encirclement and economic blockade, as well as the ever renewed attempts to subvert and overthrow the post-revolutionary order by the world’s most preponderant economic and military power, even this simple fact puts forcefully into relief the magnitude and the lasting significance of the ongoing Cuban intervention in the historical process of our time. We are all contemporaries to an achievement whose reverberations reach well beyond the confines of the tendentiously propagandized “American Hemisphere,” offering its hopeful message to the rest of the world. |

Face of a Protestor: LAPD wants to ban ski masks from demonstrators’ wardrobes |
Submitted by: Robert Greene / 14 Jan 2004
Publisher: LA Weekly
|
|
The Los Angeles Police Department is seeking the fast track for new laws to ban face coverings, gas masks or even goggles at public demonstrations, where the devices could weaken officers who want to control crowds with pepper spray and other chemicals. The proposal advanced this week after Police Commission members dismissed any First Amendment objections as premature. |

Following Nader Makes One Dizzy—Time for a Fresh Assessment (Bill Onasch) |
Submitted by: AB / 06 Jan 2004
Publisher: Labor Advocate
|
|
The Greens will now face some real challenges. They lack a class perspective and deal with issues somewhat abstractly. Encouraged by some minor wins here and there, they have also become preoccupied with a time-tested—and failed—strategy of local based electoral politics. There is a danger that as they become more successful in winning elections they may follow their European counterparts into the political Establishment. We shall see. |
