Peace Literacy: Education For LifePhiladelphia is awash in guns: More people were shot there in 2022, hundreds fatally, than in larger cities including New York and Los Angeles. In this “country’s poorest big city,” most shootings take place in neighborhoods shattered by multiple forms of racial discrimination and endemic poverty. The market in legal gun sales is also booming in Philadelphia, the culture of fear driving citizens to carry guns for safety. Further complicating solutions is the disagreement between the progressive district attorney and the chief of police over models of crime enforcement in the cit... read more

State AGs Are Celebrating Labor Day By Trying To Cut Workers’ WagesIn recent media appearances and press releases, Republican Attorneys General have been talking a big game about inflation and kitchen table pocketbook issues. Over the coming weekend, these same officials will likely be wishing their constituents a happy Labor Day and boasting about their commitment to working families on social media. Meanwhile, more than a dozen GOP AGs are actively seeking to use the courts to cut workers’ federal minimum wages and wage protections. This hypocrisy should be called out for what it is: an attack on working people. These workers should not be col... read more

First, after a long delay, Mayor Lori Lightfoot appointed the interim Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability (CCPSA).

Starbucks Worker Militancy Forces Legal VictoriesRecently, Starbucks workers achieved some significant wins in the form of National Labor Relations Board complaints and judgments against the company.

The NLRB filed a complaint Aug. 24 over Starbucks’ illegal withholding of pay raises and other benefits from workers who were unionized or in the process of organizing.

I liked the speech Joe Biden delivered in Philadelphia on Thursday night, but I can think of a couple of ways it could have been improved. I think he could have avoided any suggestion that Trump *voters* are a major threat to democracy (even though they are), which has put him and his defenders in the position of having to deny that Biden attacked every Trump voter (which he quite specifically didn't). Even people who should know better, like ABC Martha Raddatz, are accusing Biden of besmirching everyone who voted for Trump: "Has the president essentially given up on those MAGA Repu... read more
