In the search for progressive media, one is always disappointed with what is available.

Liberal/Social Democratic blogs and web pages are in abundance, but those of us on the side of anti-imperialism and social change have no interest in "whether or not the Democrats will beat the Republicans?", or "How soon can we bring the troops home from Iraq?", or other such reformist nonsense.

I don't care which bourgeoisie party is at the helm of Canada, or any other imperialist state; They all represent the interests of factions of the ruling class, rather than the people.

I don't care about the welfare of troops overseas occupying Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, or any other nation; They are imperialist oppressors, and deserve to be dealt with swiftly by the peoples that they oppress. If you are an occupier, than you are no countryman of mine.

I don't pre-occupy myself with enviro-fundamentalism, "Animal rights", vegetarianism, or any other such nonsense that is passed off under the banner of the left-wing. I'm sure that some of these causes may have some valid points, but in the scheme of the global situation, they are mere diversions to keep people from taking up politics and crying out against true injustices against humanity.

I have met many others like myself. Those that think like me, see the world like me, and have taken the time to form media outlets of their own. So, for the first time, I am releasing a list of other online media outlets that I have found useful, informative and uncompromisingly progressive.

I hope that these sites will also help others to find what it is that they are looking for.

http://revmedia.net/index.html- A resource center of video and audio clips, operated by Maoists, most likely affiliated with the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement.

http://www.vunet.org/videos/- This site, while being communist in nature, has been forced to make some concessions to the aepolitical masses who simply want to see frivolous video clips, rather than anything progressive. Still, it has many good socialist video clips.

http://www.che-lives.com/home/modules.php?name=radio- Radio Rebelde... I don't have much of an ear for the styles of music that they usually play ( Not enough rap). Still, it is probably one of the best sources for progressive music.

www.bethuneinstitute.org- Excellent place to go for anti-fascism/anti-racism materials. Hasn't been updated recently.

If anyone else has any ideas, please send them to me.
