Words on the Plateau. Torrey House Press: A Conservation Idea. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. Adaptation Versus Way of Life? Over at NewWest.net, the savvy next generation media company "dedicated to the culture, economy, politics, environment and lifestyle of the Rocky Mountain West," there's a good article today on smarter water use for farmers (here). Brendon Bosworth writes about a new report from the Stockholm Environment Institute that highlights some of the issues I have been writing and blogging about.

California Mwananchi: August 2014

http://californiamwananchi.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Friday, August 29, 2014. Re-Thinking the Role of Administrators at the University of California. On Friday, California Congresswoman Barbara Lee wrote an op-ed to the Daily Californian, the student newspaper at UC Berkeley. She argued, to repeat her headline, that “college should be an option for all”. You might think that this would be an uncontroversial enough stance, and that disagreement, where it arose, would surround the manner in which college was made available to all qualified students. The othe...

Monday, June 30, 2014. Nevada Students are Right to Critique Clinton's Shameless Profiteering. Hillary Clinton has never hidden her close relationship with the country’s plutocrats. This relationship has been best encapsulated by her participation in the speaking industry, something that, together with her husband’s efforts, has earned the Clintons tens of millions of dollars. CNN recently reported that Hillary Clinton was being paid $225,000 to speak at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in the fall.

Tuesday, July 22, 2014. Israeli Colonialism and Terror in Action. As is common when the Israeli state flexes its military muscles in one of its imperial wars, its defenders are resorting to an argument about the moral equivalency between rockets being launched at Israel from its colony, and Israel’s bombardment of and ground incursion into the colony. However much Israeli citizens might suffer from the bursts of dissatisfaction and violence brought about by their government’s colonial policy, the z...

California Mwananchi: Why I am Supporting Bernie Sanders for President

http://californiamwananchi.blogspot.com/2015/05/why-i-am-supporting-bernie-sanders-for.html

Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Why I am Supporting Bernie Sanders for President. It’s nearly a year and a half until the next presidential election, but I know who I hope will win that election: Senator Bernie Sanders. For over 45 years, our country has suffered from a refusal to face up to the causes and consequences of an increasingly grotesque economic inequality. Most politicians in the Democratic and Republican parties are singularly ill-equipped to discuss economic inequality, and most members of the lat...

Saturday, January 24, 2015. The Regime in Riyadh and Global Terror. To judge from the response of world leaders, Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah, who passed away last week, was one of the world’s finest democrats. The British Prime Minister, the French President, and the American Vice-President are heading to commemorative ceremonies. Politicians across the political spectrum in the U.S.—Joe Biden, John McCain, John Kerry—offered fulsome praise for the Saudi leader. But as Murtaza Hussain pointed out,.

Sunday, March 15, 2015. UC Irvine and the U.S. Flag. The week before last at the University of California, Irvine, the legislative branch of the student government voted to ban the display of the U.S. flag and other national flags in the lobby adjacent to the offices of the student government. The ban sparked outrage and accusations of treachery and a lack of patriotism, a veto from the student president, and a rebuke from the UC Irvine Chancellor. In a strange way the students’ actions were remini...

California Mwananchi: October 2014

Thursday, October 30, 2014. Furor over Nevada Margins Tax Shows Peril of Creeping Privatization in Higher Education. Such a measure seems like a no-brainer. On 21 August, the University rushed out a press release. Nevada political commentator Jon Ralston was able to secure access to internal documents associated with the controversy about the report, and these reveal that the administration’s response was preceded by what amounts to blackmail by the gaming industry. With his own threat: “Given how ...
