These days it seems like everyone appropriates heroes and legends for their own political ends. Republicans have finally figured out itâs bad press to diss the second most admired person of the 20th century (according to a 2000 gallup poll) and have consequently decided to honor Martin Luther King with their rhetoric if not their actions:
Quote: âour Party and the nation honors Dr. Kingâs dream by continuing his fight â the fight for all Americans to have an equal chance at the American Dream."
Only, the republican party has been steadfast in destroying those very chances...

The Militarization of 'Aid' and the recolonization of Haiti after the quake
Jan. 18, 2010, 6:42 p.m.
In this show, we discuss the social and historical context in which a perfectly nature disaster has become a social disaster of epic proportions. We first interview Kevin Pina of the Haiti Information Project, an investigative journalist who has worked on Haiti since 1991 and whose family is there trying to survive the disaster. B.C. Holmes from Toronto Haiti Action just returned from Haiti days before the quake and tells us about the gross human rights abuses faced by Haitians at the hands of the occupiers since 2004.
Jan. 18, 2010, 5:43 p.m.
It was less than two years ago, in 2008, that we received reports of food shortages in Haiti so great that there was widespread eating of mud cakes. How would Haiti have fared if it had been more resilient before the quake? Could stronger local economies have prevented some of the destruction in the quake and led to a faster recovery afterwards?
Jan. 18, 2010, 4:41 p.m.
A series of interviews conducted between Wednesday, January 13th and Monday, January 18th about the devastating earthquake in Haiti and Canadian involvement in Haiti now and historically.
