Unjust, Evil & Futile - America's War on Vietnam
April 5, 2017, 1:57 p.m.
Commemorating the 50th anniversary of Dr. King's, "Why I Oppose the War in Vietnam" speech, Troy LaRaviere gave the opening remarks at the event, less a memorial than a call to to renew the truth of Dr. King . The event was organized by Chicago Area Peace Action and eleven other groups to take up and renew King's call for a radical revolution of values. The full program can be found at the chipeaceaction.org web site.
Troy LaRaviere tells us that Dr. King gave two speeches on Vietnam. The first at the historic Riverside Church in New York City on April 4, 1967 and a second in Atlanta where he responded to the vicious attacks and vilification he received from establishment, government and movement "friends" alike for the searing truth of what he said by "doubling down" on his critique.

Richard Grossman - Dismantling Corporations - Archive (ONE of TWO)
April 4, 2017, 2:50 p.m.
Ralph Nader called Richard Grossman the preeminent historian of corporations. In his writings and teaching Grossman warned us that unchecked corporate power would lead to the destruction of democracy. He said that the American revolution was fought less against the King but "against the crown corporations, the Hudsons Bay and East India Corporations." And he believed that it is time to remember that fight and assert sovereignty of the people over corporations and the corporate state.
In this speech Grossman provocatively calls for dismantling "the thousand largest corporations off the face of the earth."
Richard Grossman's research showed him that in the original intent of American revolutionaries corporations did not have rights, they only had privileges, and only those that we the people bestow on them. They were to be limited by a revocable charter that specified what they were allowed to do; it's board and officers were to be fully liable for any harms the corporation did; and they initially had none of the free speech rights that go along with person-hood.
If Richard Grossman were still alive today in 2017 he would be shocked to see that corporations and bankers from Exxon to Goldman Sachs, from General Dynamics to Lockheed Martin, from Wells Fargo to pipeline builder Energy Transfer, no longer are limited to purchasing influence by buying congress people one by one - but now own and run large parts of the government directly.
Richard Grossman died of melanoma on November 22nd, 2011. In the last 15 years of his life he had been an important member of POCLAD, the Project on Corporations, Law and Democracy and CELDF, the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund. His and CELDF's lasting legacy are the Democracy Schools that continue to be taught across the country. They examine the history of the rise of corporate power and devise strategies for disrupting that power.
This rare recording comes from a retreat of the International Forum on Globalization that had formed just a year earlier. The task was to brainstorm on how best to alert the public on the consolidation of the global corporate structure enabled by the new trade agreements under the WTO.

When we last covered the Supreme Court it was after Justice Antonin Scalia passed away in February 2016. At that time many of us naively assumed that President Obama was going to be able to fill the vacancy, and we were concerned with specific issues like upholding the Obama administration's clean power act. But, oh so much has transpired since then! And so much more is at stake, including but not limited to the preservation of the most fundamental environmental protections. This week on Sea Change Radio we speak with UC Irvine professor, Rick Hasen, about the fight over the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to the nation's highest court. We delve into the intricacies of the filibuster, and wrestle a bit over whether this is the appropriate time for Democrats to use it.

Pappe and Finkelstein respond to the slings and arrows of the Zionists' media storytellers
April 2, 2017, 8:09 p.m.
Today we deal with the contrasting Palestinian and Zionist narratives that drive the debate on the Israel/Palestine struggle. The two narratives often clash in various forums where they are presented and debated. This week we present illustrative portions of two such forums. In the first, the Palestinian narrative is presented by Ilan Pappe; in the second, by Norman Finkelstein.
Pappe and Finkelstein are rightly recognized for their willingness to challenge the Zionists' false narrative in forums throughout the worldâ¦to expose themselves to the slings and arrows of those who denigrate their work and try to discredit the Palestinian narrative, which, as we will see, is standing up well to international scrutiny and increasingly being accepted by the international community.
First, we hear Pappe responding to outrageous Zionist pummeling on an Australian talk show. After that, we hear Finkelstein play a similar role in a debate televised on RT.
