Is there a better graphic demonstrating the inhumanity of Netanyahu and the IDF and the imperative of a ceasefire? I’m for an immediate ceasefire, but also for – not as a first choice – anything that will get us there. In any case, the staggering number of deaths of women and children (and others) should give urgency to this struggle. A simple thing to do is to call the office of your Senator and House member to thank them for supporting a ceasefire if they have or to urge them to do so if they haven’t.

I'm a long-time socialist and activist, but new to the blogging world. I hope to bring a different perspective on politics, sports, culture, and Marxism. Besides blogging, I also leave plenty of time for swimming, hiking, ESPN, music, reading, drinking good beer, and, not least, my family and friends. I wish I could play basketball, but my knees ruled out that possibility long ago.
While I currently reside in New York, my politically formative years were spent in Portland, Me. and Detroit during the 1970s and 1980s. I graduated from St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia (where I played basketball) and received a MA in economics from the University of Connecticut.
I was the national chairperson of the Communist Party, USA from 2000 until 2014 when I stepped down at the convention. In 2016 I resigned from the Communist Party two years later. We were no longer on the same page.
