VOICES

GUEST COMMENTARY - We shall state our position at the outset: The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) does not speak for all Jews, it certainly does not speak for us—the daughters of Holocaust survivors and refugees—and increasingly, it does not speak for anyone who cares about justice and human rights.

GUEST COMMENTARY - After a violent mob assaulted the U.S. Capitol last year, injuring more than 150 law enforcement officials, 147 GOP lawmakers voted against certifying the election for Joe Biden.

GUEST COMMENTARY - Multiple teachers working under Johnnie L. Cochran Jr. Middle School principal Gilberto Samuel report being subjected to or observing sexual harassment, homophobic discrimination, and retaliation.

JAN 6 JUSTICE - Last night the January 6th Committee's co-chair Liz Cheney told us that "Representative Scott Perry sought a pardon" along with "multiple other members of Congress" for their participation in the attempted coup, their sedition against the United States of America.

THE VIEW FROM HERE - Few have heard about The Great American Walk Away (GAWA) aka The Power of One, because it is part of Future-History or exists only in an alternate universe. 

VOICE IN THE CHEAP SEATS - I can't decide if Dick Platkin's latest “hit piece” (Why the Grove Mall cannot be scaled up to fix LA - 6/9/2022) is targeting the Grove or Rick Caruso or political corruption or just plain city planning that does not conform to his vision of an ideal city.

GUEST COMMENTARY - I am at a loss for words to express my horror as I watched the first segment of the public hearing of the Congressional committee investigating the January 6 insurrection.

GUEST COMMENTARY - Now that the verdict in the Depp-Heard trial is in, the media spectacle of the case may finally begin to die down.

DIVIDED POLITICS - As we look at the pictures from Uvalde, Buffalo, and other mass shootings, we’re having agonized conversation.

GUN VIOLENCE - Mass shootings are good for gun sales.
