German Parliament members demand Mumia's immediate release
"Mumia has been on death row for 25 years now. The political motivation behind his verdict is obvious. As an activist against the ubiquitous racism of US society, he was sentenced in a trial that failed to meet basic legal standards. The evidence in his favor is overwhelming, and its neglect by the relevant judicial authorities constitutes a scandal in its own right. "...

Humanitarian Intervention: The White Man's Burden?
If we look at the world through the eyes of a nouveau-imperialist, few things are more certain than that humanitarian intervention is the special and last prerogative of the white race (known in polite circles as The West). When the Americans, Canadians, British, French, Germans, Norwegians, Danes, Belgians, Spanish and Dutch go into Afghanistan(*), we can rest assured that the few dark faces will not spoil the party: the commanders, the decision-makers will be white, as will the the bulk of ...

Several BlackAmericaWeb.com columns ago, I predicted that, sooner rather than later, a man either not white or not rich or not white AND not rich would be falsely accused of rape. I further predicted that the gaggle of conservative pundits and commentators — in print and broadcast media — who have defended the three Duke lacrosse players accused of raping a black stripper would not say one word in that man’s defense....

Why the Jewish Community Should Demand 9/11 Truth
I think that Bill underestimates the power of Israel *over* the US (how many other countries can murder UN workers multiple times, for example, with no consequence?), but nonetheless, he is correct in his position that the anti-semitic stuff is a poison for 9/11 truth to emerge and easily discredits us all. Those whose exclusive focus is on Israel will go wild at Bill's position that Israel didn't have control over 9/11, but in the end, we need to put our own country on the stand first, no m...
