When Barack Obama leaves the White House in January 2017, what will black America, his earliest and most consistent supporters, have to show for making his political career possible. We'll have the T-shirts and buttons and posters, the souvenirs. That will be the good news. The bad news is what else we'll have.... and not.

Terror in the Mirror

Submitted by admin on April 29, 2013 - 9:13am

Who are the terrorists, and can you know one when you see one?

How is President Obama not a terrorist, like President Bush and other presidents before him?

What does it mean to be a terrorist? Isn't someone who commits or colludes in a terrorist act quite simply a terrorist?

What is a terrorist act? Isn't a terrorist act an act of violence designed to murder, main, and terrorize civilians?

NPA Facilitator Thoughts on Labor

Submitted by ed2291 on March 20, 2013 - 1:54am

Within the base of support of NPA, you could probably ask 100 people what they believe our primary focus should be, and get about 10 different answers - each of them a plank of the Unified Platform. But I've been giving it much thought in recent weeks, and have decided that there is one issue which ties all the others together: Labor.

THE PATH FORWARD FOR THE NEW YEAR

Submitted by Sondra on January 15, 2013 - 12:27pm

I want to share my thoughts about the path forward for the NPA and be open to enlightenment and comments about your thoughts.

The path forward should include continuing the work already in progress including sharing the Unified Progressive Platform with candidates for public office, maintaining the website, and communicating with Volunteers and other progressive organizations.

The opportunity for new goals is with the State Liaisons, but the goals need to be focused so as not to require too much volunteer time or overburden the Liaisons.

2013-2015 Candidates

Submitted by ed2291 on January 4, 2013 - 8:10pm

In 2012 the New Progressive Alliance endorsed 54 candidates from 23 states. These candidates sought seats ranging from school boards to sheriff to U.S. Congress (both houses) to the presidency - THREE for that last office alone! - are blazing the trail for the future of democracy in America. It is a trail very different than that which the Democratic and Republican parties take us down election after election, with the same predictable result: A disenfranchised working class and an ever-more enriched military-industrial-Wall Street complex.
