If you (like many!!) are struggling to make it through all the political rhetoric being thrown about now during the U.S. election cycle, please click over to WOC PhD’s place for a “just the facts” sort of post on the Green Party’s team: Cynthia McKinney and Rosa Clemente. Some of the facts:

* extend access to education to immigrants and low income college students without debt
* insure housing – stop government plans to demolish unused housing and give to developers for “revitalization” instead of recycling/refurbishing homes for low income and homeless use,
* address government policies that encourage gentrification to ensure the preservation of affordable housing and established communities success
* sign the UN Declaration on Indigenous Rights
* support all workers rights to unionize end anti-union policies in industries
