It's all about power and privilege and their abuse. That is what stands in the way of justice, peace and human prosperity. When we understand the power-based racist system we live in and the dynamics involved we will be able to change the way things are. We can start to take RESPONSIBILITY for the part WE play in the oppression of others. We will be able to eliminate the abuse of power & privilege. I don't endorse every opinion in everything I post

Michael Parenti: Race, Gender and Class Stuggle
Michael Parenti: Race, Gender and Class Stuggle
1:08:29 - 4 years ago
Michael Parenti is one of America's most astute and engaging political analysts. In this talk, he describes how divisions of race and gender have played into -- and often against -- struggles for economic justice and human rights. He calls on progressive activists to focus on fighting the opprressive power structures that are at the base of wars and economic injustices rather than on differences among ourselves. Parenti also discusses and signs his new book, "The Culture Struggle". This special PPJC presentation was recorded on April 27, 2006. (89 minutes.)

The Ultimate CHEMTRUTH: Chemtrails, Morgellons Disease, and Global Depopulation
"The Ultimate CHEMTRUTH: Chemtrails, Morgellons Disease, and Global Depopulation
1:03:19 - 2 years ago
This updated hard-hitting video presentation compiles several of the most recent reports on Chemtrails, and the epidemic outbreak of Morgellon's disease coast to coast. The Ultimate CHEMTRUTH version contains extended news coverage, and other information which anybody interested in knowing the truth about Chemtrails must not miss!! Politically aware individuals will understand the connection between this documented activity, and the proven 'End Game' theories of patriots such as Alex Jones, Anthony J. Hilder, Phil Schneider (RIP), and many others, as well as the 'Zeitgeist' religious conspiracy (which has been carried out upon humanity for millennium by the apex echelon of dynastic elite). This is the time for the powerful creative forces of good, inner light, and love to take back this space, this time, and this place. Be a Beacon of Love, and a Warrior of Truth. And like a warrior, ACT - do something! Get involved! Now, it is up to us! Awaken to Awareness, and Behold! *NOTE WITH MUCH APOLOGIES, THE RADIO INTERVIEW WAS MISTAKENLY CREDITED TO COAST TO COAST AM, WHERE RENSE RADIO IS THE TRUE DESERVING PARTY. MY VERY SINCERE REGRETS THAT THIS EDITING AND RESEARCH ERROR WAS COMMITTED, AND IT WILL BE CORRECTED IN ANY FUTURE VERSIONS OF 'THE ULTIMATE CHEMTRUTH'. Thank you.

Human Genetics: Our Past and Our Future David Altshuler
About the Lecture
Will genomics vanquish our most common diseases, or create a society based on vile eugenics – or both?David Altshuler outlines these possibilities in his informal talk and conversation at the MIT Museum.Altshuler is a self-described optimist, and sees promise in current genetic research that attempts to pinpoint why some people develop diseases like adult-onset diabetes or schizophrenia. If we can identify the precise mechanisms inside cells that go haywire in individuals with an inherited predisposition to a certain disease, then it may be possible to design drugs much more accurately. “We’re searching for a culprit who committed a crime, where the culprit is a mutation in a DNA sequence that made somebody get sick …. And scientists are the detectives -- CGI: Crime Gene Investigators,” says Altshuler.
Scientists have a very powerful tool in the human genome sequence, and they are quickly mapping out genes that cause diseases. But the very tools that permit insight into illness may also permit researchers to isolate genes for other human traits. And this has Altshuler musing: “How about hair loss, intelligence, criminality, athletic ability….Should society regulate the use of genetic information in reproductive choices?” What if insurance companies gain access to individuals’ genetic predictors, and use this to determine risk, and rates? “There’s no federal legislation to prevent someone from shaking your hand, scraping off DNA, doing a genetic test and not hiring you or refusing to give you insurance,” Altshuler points out. Ultimately, he says, it will be in the hands of the public to strike a balance between restricting the use of genetic information, and permitting its application to cure disease.

Animal Consciousness
Power Point presentation by Peter Spendelow of NWVeg, discussing whether or not animals are conscious, if they can feel pain. A fairly wide ranging presentation, commenting on brain structure of animals and humans as well as common and extraordinary powers of both.
