Democracy in Crisis

ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE: AN INDICTED JOURNALIST REFLECTS ON CONSPIRACY IN TODAY’S AMERICA

Written by AARON CANTU Posted August 9, 2018 Filed Under: FEATURES, Media Farm, Non-fiction

His actions consisted of walking, wearing black and being a witness to history as a freelance journalist. Yet, a few months later, and despite having no clear evidence of such crimes, federal prosecutors slammed him with eight felony charges including conspiracy to riot and property damage.

MUCH LOVE AND GRIM SOLIDARITY: BAYNARD WOODS TAKES STOCK IN THE LAST DEMOCRACY IN CRISIS COLUMN

Written by BAYNARD WOODS Posted July 5, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Democracy in Crisis

Now, more than 70 columns later, either that has changed, or I was wrong-headed from the start. The Trump regime has taken up so much air from every other story that, while it is wildly important and has implications everywhere, I believe that each of these papers is better served following up on the way Trump’s policies affect their local communities.

Written by BAYNARD WOODS Posted June 19, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Democracy in Crisis

I took a massive dose of mushrooms at the beginning of the Trump regime. I was trying to prepare myself for the worst, like they do in the studies for cancer patients that have been carried out at Johns Hopkins.

DRUG WARRIORS: CIA-CONTRA COCAINE CONSPIRACY FALL GUY “FREEWAY” RICKY ROSS TALKS OLIVER NORTH

Written by BRANDON SODERBERG Posted May 29, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Democracy in Crisis, NEWS+OPINIONS

As outrageous amounts of cocaine entered the country, guys like Ross bought and sold it, and the boys below him cooked it up and sold it as crack, creating an epidemic in neighborhoods that cops couldn’t give a shit about—at least until they could arrest everybody for the drugs the government allowed into the country with a wink and a nod.
