Aristide and the 1991 Coup - Part1
Jan. 27, 2011, 9:08 p.m.
Last Sunday Baby Doc Duvalier returned to Haiti after years of exile because of crimes that he had committed while he was ruler of Haiti. Not unsurprisingly, Baby Doc was arrested shortly thereafter and is currently being held in Port au Prince awaiting trial. What is surprising is the absence of a very popular leader of Haiti, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who was most recently president of Haiti until 2004 when he was ousted by Duvalier rebels.
His history, like Haitiâs is both tragic and eventful.

Jan. 26, 2011, 9:48 a.m.
Canadain history is often shown in very nice and friendly terms. Canadains like to point to the faults of the United States and say we are the friendly neighour of the US. In fact Canada has a long history of explotation and racism. Sadly though this history althought being disturbing is not in the regular discussions of Canada's past. Can we really move froward as a society if we do not critically examie our past?

Vincent Harding: Martin Luther King Jr's dream part 2
Jan. 26, 2011, 9:02 a.m.
Vincent Harding is an African American historian and a scholar of religion and society. An activist as well, he is best known for his work with and writings about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He wrote the speech Beyond Vietnam which was one of Dr. King's most critical speeches on Americas role in Vietnam.
This interview with Vincent Harding was recorded in 2009 by Michael Welch when Dr. Harding was in Winnipeg giving presentations about the election of Obama and what that meant for King's "dream". But what did Dr. King really stand for? Has there been a careful omission of the more radical aspects of Martin Luther King Jr?
Martin Luther King Jr. day was just last week and with Black history month coming up this is an interview not to be missed.
