Taking it with (Less than) a Grain of Salt Not so many years ago a young man lay naked, beaten, and chained to a floor in a place not known by you or me...until now. It is a secret CIA black site called the Salt Pit. If his story is like that of many others, he was probably handed over by warlords or members of a rival tribe looking for a handsome reward. But this case has not and will not be investigated. Read more on why that is here

The American Appetite & What Torture Victims and the World Hunger For Do the people of this country have an appetite for justice for those tortured by the U.S. Empire. They better because the U.S. Empire has an insatiable appetite for torture. James Carville is proof of that

Into the Black: Torture and Real People Binyam Mohamed was recently released from Guantanamo. Note his humanity and recognize your own, those whose conscious has been shocked by the crimes of torture. Act outside the framework of politics as usual to bring these crimes to an end rather than relying on the leadership to end the torture state.

To My LGBT Brothers and Sisters: Obama Never Promised Us A Break with The Christian Right This article is a call to LGBT not to accept the terms being set by the right or the progressive/liberal pundits regarding Obama's invitation to Rick Warren to give the invocation at his inauguration. This is a time for all of us to make heard and visible that will not accept living under a government where unity and common ground with religious fanatics is sought after at the expense of minority groups.

It calls on the people of this country to be accountable for what our government has done and continues to do and to take responsibility for stopping these crimes by building and joining with a mass movement that acts outside official politics.
