If you have seen The Staircase documentary and/or the HBO Staircase docudrama, you will want to listen to this podcast with the Academy award-winning director of the documentary, Jean-Xavier de Lestrade, discussing both. Great interview. @PfeifferSonya

So it's not just in the US. I hoped there was less of it in Canada. Still naive after all these years.

Complete and utter inhumanity to keep any human being in solitary for 44 years. And the fact he was able to survive with his mind intact and write a book about the experience that was nominated for these awards is an incredible testament to Mr. Woodfox.

Solitary confinement should be abolished as cruel and unusual punishment pursuant to the 8th Amendment. There are other ways to enforce prison discipline or protect inmates from harm.

I have to say that this is truly sick. No matter your politics, the crassness and lack of respect for the office of the President is repulsive.

Although I was a die-hard Knicks fan in the 1960’s and 70’s, and hated the Celtics, this news has quite unexpectedly made me really sad. Not because of what he accomplished as an athlete, but for what he stood for as a spokesperson and a symbol.

Bill Russell called out racism and spoke truth to power, much as Ali and Jim Brown and Arthur Ashe, and Tommie Smith and John Carlos and others, but he did he did it with a dignity and grace that was transcending.
It’s yet another sad day for the US as we sink into the abyss.

If you read American Injustice, and can read Croatian, you will know the story. The photo isn’t bad, but I have no idea what the article says. Any help with the translation?

While I assumed that Biden ran (and won) as a "one-term" transitional president, he has not formally announced he will not run for a second term. This article explains why he should do so before the 2022 midterm campaigning begins in earnest.

I am happy to report that Michael Peterson was not on the upper East Side of Manhattan (or anywhere in New York City or state) on Wednesday or Thursday.

Thank you Tracy. I had not seen these. It’s a really excellent interview with Michael and his daughter Margie. Well worth the watch.

These words stayed with me from your conversation in Melbourne with Laura Nirider and Steven Drizin.
This aired recently here in Australia. If you haven't seen these, thought you might find them of interest.

It has been a 46 year battle for Ray Finch and his devoted children. Although the total settlement, including Wilson County, is $9.5 million, that pales in comparison to what was taken from them. RIP Ray. restorationnewsmedia.com/wil…

First they came for the Communists. And I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the Socialists. And I did not speak out because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists. And I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews. And I did not speak out because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left to speak out for me. Martin Niemoller. 1946.

That this is being touted by Biden and the Dems as significant is pathetic. Its exactly why we are where we are today. Mass killings, open carry laws, and this is what we celebrate as bipartisan progress? Its a surrender, not a victory.
