Sarah Erdreich Talks “Generation Roe” on Book TV
March 21, 2013
Earlier this month, Sarah Erdreich–author of the upcoming Generation Roe (on sale March 26th, 2013)–appeared at the Politics & Prose Bookstore in Washington, D.C., to discuss the future of the pro-choice movement and what the next step will be for abortion rights in America. The event was broadcast on C-SPAN’s Book TV, and you can now view the entire hour-long program on Book TV’s Web site.Erdreich has been identified as a leading pro-choice activist by Newsweek, and her incisive writings on abortion rights have been noted by Jezebel, Feministing, and the National Partnership for Women and Families. Now, in Generation Roe, Erdreich tells the true stories of those whose lives are most changed by this issue, and outlines the outrageous legal battlegrounds that have popped up across the country, all with frankness and candor. Gloria Steinem says Erdreich “replaces lies with honesty and myth with reality” in this, her first book.

Mickey Z. interviews Mickey Huff on Project Censored
November 18, 2010
“Project Censored, quite simply, seeks media accountability. In our view, the only valid justification for declining a news story is that in a medium limited by time and space, another news story was simply more important to the people of the community, whether local, national or international. While admittedly a subjective process, it is nonetheless, a process to be undertaken by the news people themselves (the investigative journalists and editors), NOT by the managers and CEOs of their “parent company.” No professional journalist or researcher should ever have to face the destruction of his or her career (or life) simply because they wanted to tell the truth.” —Mickey Huff, in conversation with Mickey Z

Ted Rall advocates violent revolution on MSNBC; right wing bloggers respond
November 9, 2010
This clip from Anti-American Manifesto author Ted Rall speaks for itself:
Already upon release, the right wing blogosphere has been erupting over Rall’s ideas. A representative quote:
“Why do you think we’ve been so concerned about 2nd Amendment rights, Mr. Rall? I don’t know any nutball liberals who own firearms, but I know quite a few conservatives who are well-armed and practiced in their use. Your lefty insurrection might just be the fastest way to purge the country’s cancer.” — PD Quig, commenting at Verum Serum
Interested in the controversy? Check out this sample of the book — then, whether you like what Rall is saying, or whether you disagree, please feel free to join the conversation in the blogosphere.

October 12, 2010
“I waited this long to post here because I don’t always think it is going to get better,” [Hello, Cruel World author Kate] Bornstein says in her video for the ["It Gets Better"] project. “Sometimes it gets worse, a whole lot worse than I thought it would get worse.”
“I had to wait until I thought it would [get better]. This is a day I think it’s going to get better. It only took me a week to get to this day, so what do you know?” she says. “It got better!” — Josh Fernandez of Temple News, on Dan Savage’s “It Gets Better” project
