Caged for seeking freedom – migrants and refugees in the land of the free. Next, zooming out on the global refugee industry – because yes, that too – is a booming business.

COP 25 is over and the people have spoken – from Chile to Madrid, largely indigenous-led protests are highlighting the uselessness of these climate summits and the danger of falling for greenwashed false solutions in the age of climate chaos. Next, you've likely heard of fracking, but do you know about frac sand mining? Ted Auch from Frac Tracker takes us into this seldom-discussed world of environmental destruction.

There's only so much you can take from someone. And with the recent plans to starve some 700,000 Americans, we may have reached that threshold. We dive to the bottom line to uncover the real impetus behind such legislation and the horrifying ways in which we spend money that could - and should – go to we the people. Next up, We don't shut up, we shut down – a message, parallels and lessons from a recent climate court case in Germany

A whale of a deal for the IMF and all those folks out there who wanna keep consuming but want someone else to deal with the fall out. Next up, the whole damn system is guilty as hell – and that's a heavy thought. And while starting the fight – and more so the build - in your own community might seem a small move to make, it may be the most powerful.

Thanksgiving is bullshit. But that doesn't mean that we can't bring some truth to the table while diving into issues such as indigenous foods, farming practices and food sovereignty.
Plus, it's not just what we consume - indeed, it's not even our own personal consumption - but rather this global programming on consumption that's killing us.
Once we start to question the programming, we'll see the horrors of the program - from cancer alley and beyond. From this space, we can work on dismantling it and building for the future.

PLUS Claire Arkin sits down to discuss the colonialist waste trade, false solutions like incineration and the insidious dealings of the plastics industry.

DACA is in the supreme court. Far from being a legislative or constitutional battle for Trump's administration, this is fascist virtue signaling. The arguments over legality thinly veil the systemic truth: this is an overt ramping up of policies already in place with previous administrations.
Next up, Never Again Action launches proactive and historically conscious activism, combining outreach with protest.

Bolivia was too happy. Ideas that are but dreams here in the US are legislative realities in Bolivia, and that can not stand.
Meanwhile, the echoes of US imperialism plays loudly in the streets of Chile.
US residents asking when we're gonna reach that tipping point have some important questions to consider.
PLUS some news on AFRICOM.

Finally, Chairman Omali Yeshitela joins us to talk imperialism, class warfare, revolution and more. "You can not have your whiteness and socialism too. You can not have your whiteness and liberation too.”
