Will America hold Trump & his enablers accountable for 400,000 unnecessary deaths? Is this manslaughter, now that Trump brags that he actively ignored the scientific advice? Prof. Richard Wolff is here on rising food prices and the impact on global unrest.  If prices continue to rise — on top of the pain of the pandemic — the world could be in for a bumpy future. Plus - Vaccine Passports? Let's just call them "right to life" or "freedom" passports! What red blooded, Nazi-arm-band-wearing, Confederate-flag-waving, Capitol-invading, gun-toting American patriot could possibly object?

On The Science Revolution this week is Melissa Troutman & Joshua Boaz Pribanic on their new documentary, with Mark Ruffalo, called The Invisible Hand. The Rights of Nature movement captured in INVISIBLE HAND changes Nature’s status from property to living entity. This fixes a fundamental flaw within societies worldwide that contributes to everything from genocide to ecocide. Across the globe, communities are creating new legal systems that grant legal, enforceable rights to Nature, thereby honoring the rights of all people, too. This movie shows when we enact and enforce the Rights of Nature, we restore the sanctity and equanimity of all Life, including human beings.
