Navajo Resist John McCain's SB 1003 (audio/x-wav 22.2MB) Arizona Senator John McCain's senate bill SB1003 would end the relocation process of the remaining Navajo from land on the Black Mesa Hopi/Navajo Reservation. Opponents say that the Navajo are being moved off their land so coal companies can mine it. John McCain's Senate Bill 1003 would require their imminent removal by 2008. But the remaining Navajo REFUSE TO BE MOVED....

Blacks, Latinos Pay More for Mortgages African Americans and Latinos get high-priced subprime mortgages far more frequently than whites – even when they are equally qualified, according to a groundbreaking new study from the Center for Responsible Lending. Lenders say they charge more because Blacks and Latinos on average have shakier credit histories, which makes lending to them riskier. But that explanation is simply wrong....

The False War Between Civilizations About 20 years ago I was in my mid-teens and becoming vaguely aware of the way grown men are perceived and expected to act. One day, while riding the Toronto subway, I saw a woman and her small blond-haired son, about 7 years old, rushing to try to get into the subway car. Because of the boy’s dawdling, he barely made it onto the car before the doors closed, but his mother was left behind on the platform. As the train pulled away, the woman scowled at her son from behind the door and growled ...

Shot Through the Heart: Why Are Black Youth Dying? A plump, youngish African American Woman with curls and braids sat a few chairs away from me in the ER watching television. She shifted her weight. A tear coursed down her cheek tracing a lighter brown track on the side of her face. She glanced at me, rubbing a tissue over her eyes. The show was about a kid who shot another kid. "That's sad." I observed. "My son was shot a month ago." "I'm SO sorry," I gasped. "A drive-by near the Market Street Safeway," she said. "The female MUNI driver got ...

SF Supervisors, will you nail the Black community to Redevelopment’s cross again? They said it couldn’t be done, but in less than three weeks, more than 7,000 San Franciscans have signed the petition to stop the Redevelopment Agency from grabbing and “repeopling” Bayview Hunters Point.
