Co-founders of the Mexico Solidarity Project, Bruce Hobson and Meizhu Lui will speak on why North American progressives should understand why Mexico is critical to advancing a vision of socialism and multiracial democracy in the United States.
Today’s independent investigative journalists take as their watchword I. F. Stone’s premise –“All governments lie.” At a time when profit driven corporate media serves the interests of powerful elites, a democratic republic desperately needs independent journalists. With government deception rampant, and intrusion of state surveillance into private life never more egregious, we are blessed to have Amy Goodman, Jeremy Scahill, Glenn Greenwald, Michael Moore and Matt Taibbi to expose government lies and corporate deception. All are inspired by the legendary investigative journalist I.F. Stone. Stone’s fearless, independent reporting from 1953 to 1971 filled a tiny 4-page newsletter which he wrote, published, and carried to the mailbox every week. Today millions read the reports of the independent journalists he had a profound influence on.
