Today's Socialism Wears a Suit and Calls Itself Capitalism

Taxpayers are the investors.
But only billionaires see the returns.

They take our money, reap the gains, and call it capitalism.
It’s socialism for the rich—extraction for the rest of us.

What If Nature Could Fight Back?

What if the Great Lakes had rights?
Not just to be beautiful.
But to exist, thrive, and fight back.

A bill was introduced in the New York Assembly that says they do.

It’s called Rights of Nature—and it flips everything.

No more waiting on politicians.
No more treating water like property.

This bill gives ecosystems the power to defend themselves.
To say “no” to pollution.
To hold corporations accountable.

Because nature isn’t a resource.
It’s a living system.
And it’s done being silent.

The battle over birthright citizenship isn’t over. And let’s be clear: this isn’t just about immigration. We are fighting for the Constitution itself—clause by clause, right by right, as it’s stripped in real time. The 14th Amendment is under siege, every word of it. And the fight to defend Section 1—birthright citizenship—has only just begun.

Did you know the last Indigenous boarding school in the U.S. didn’t close until 1992?

In Michigan, it was even earlier—1983.
Holy Childhood School of Jesus. Harbor Springs.

This history isn’t distant. It’s living.
And so are the people who survived it.

Join us as we walk alongside survivors on their journey of healing and reconciliation.

Our next drop runs June 11–20.
Each purchase supports our documentary Indigenous Voices—and directly uplifts survivors of Holy Childhood as they share their journey with us, in their words, on their terms.

Listen to our podcasts and read about their Journey at greatlakespulse.com.
