"Ian Rankin once explained to an interviewer (the head of the Indian Communist Party!) that crime fiction is a way of talking about social inequality. Ron Jacobs applies that same maxim to the Sixties... in his wonderfully noir trilogy of those exhilarating and troubled times. And what Rankin does for Edinburgh, Jacobs amply illuminates for the Movement. Much much more than ripping yarns (though they are that too), from a master who's been there, done that, and lived to tell a tale or two."

Trump and His Tariffs
Any benefits workers obtain in a capitalist economy are the result of struggle, not the gifts of the owners and financiers. Supporting the tariffs because of some imagined short term gain is merely buying into neoliberal capitalism’s con game.

Stop the Idiocy! Stop the Mattis-ness!
The (revised) toll in lives was: 36, 546 US soldiers, an
estimated 1.5 million Koreans on both sides of the parallel (mostly civilians),
200,000 Chinese soldiers, and another 4000 soldiers from armies that allied
themselves with the United States. In
addition, there were more than one million wounded and/or missing.

Syria: Beyond Western Myths and Half-Truths
A book about history that is ignored by so many....not meant as an endorsement of Assad and his army but certain to be taken that way by those unwilling or unable to look at the broader picture...
