The Moral Case for Resisting Evictions Amid a Pandemic: In the so-called “Land of the Free,” so many of “the Brave” in the United States are the homeless. If you use Department of Education figures, as opposed to those put out by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the number of people suffering homelessness in the U.S. is closer to 1.4 million each year—not the 500,000 to 600,000 figure frequently used.

Guest commentary: People deserve to know about the health effects of 5G and EMFs:
There are zero studies that prove that 5G is safe for our health. During a federal Senate hearing, the representatives of the telecom industry also communicated that there were no future plans to conduct any independent 5G safety studies. Currently there is a federal case against the Federal Communications Commission charging that the safety standards that were tested for 1G are still being applied 24 years later to 5G without being updated.
