Dr. Theogene Rudasingwa, once a top figure in Kagameâs regime, explains how the RPF rigs the Rwandan system to enrich themselves. The peaceful campaign of Victoire Ingibire to challenge Kagameâs one-man rule has led to her imprisonment. Yet her courage, like that of Nelson Mandela, has made her the common cause of all who strive for democracy. There are new signs that opposition to Kagameâs ways is growing both in Rwanda and in neighboring states.

Pursuing Police Accountability - Ending the Code of Silence
March 5, 2016, 8:58 p.m.
Chicago native and law professor Craig Futterman founded
the University of Chicago's Civil Rights and Police Accountability Clinic, the first of its kind in the nation, in a trashed out apartment in Stateway Gardens, then one of Chicago's most troubled public housing projects.
He and his students have since sued the Chicago Police Department and the City winning civil rights suits on behalf of residents for police kidnapping, planting evidence, filing false charges and menacing a project resident with a running chain saw.
Recently his law suit forced the release of the Laquan McDonald video, which the police and Mayor Rahm Emanuel had tried to suppress from the public for over a year, that forced the Cook County States Attorney to charge police officer Jason Van Dyke with first degree murder.
He speaks about his research into and work in ending police impunity and the need to address the structural problems damaging and killing youth of color by changing the character of policing. He thinks there is a chance to do so based on models he has seen enacted else where. He is one of the leaders of a nation wide campaign to end police impunity.

The Mine Wars: The Bitter Battle Fought By a People Made of Steel
with
Randall MacLowry, producer and director
Go inside the coal miners' bitter battle for dignity at the dawn of the 20th century with The Mine Wars. The struggle over the material that fueled Ame rica led to the largest armed insurrection since the Civil War and turned parts of West Virginia into a bloody war zone. At the dawn of the 20th century, coal was the fuel that powered the nation. Yet few Americans thought much about the men who blasted the black rock from underground and hauled it to the surface. The Mine Wars tells the overlooked story of the miners in the mountains of southern West Virginia, native mountaineers, African American migrants, and European immigrants who came together in a protracted struggle for their rights
