So this video was posted in October but I stumbled across it recently so I decided to share it with you. This video is all about frames. Notice how Tom Morello is thrown questions in frames like “Which one is you favorite occupy movement?” and “Which occupy movement do you think has the most potential […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It comes from the sky. Turn the faucet, and it pours out in what seems like an infinite amount. We use it to drink, bathe, to grow food, to cook. Three fourths of the planet is covered by it, so it’s no wonder we take water for granted. However, even with its abundance less than […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’ve been reading Deep Green Resistance: Strategy to Save the Planet by Aric McBay, Lierre Keith, and Derrick Jensen which I highly recommend and I came across this video so I thought I’d share it with you below.
In these videos Deep Green Resistance: Strategy to Save the Planet co-author Lierre Keith outlines some of the differences between liberals and radicals.

This is the time of year when I think there’s more of a push to get people to understand the ills of Walmart, but really it’s not just about Walmart, it’s about these megastores. It’s also not just about this time of year but all year long.
Seems like there’s an infographic for everything. I chose this one because here in New York City we are experiencing the mildest of weather this time of year.
