NATIONAL PARK WEEK STARTS SATURDAY, WITH FREE ADMISSION EVERYWHERE

On Saturday, April 20, "National Park Week 2019" kicks off with a fee-free day. ALL national parks will waive their entrance fees on that one day, so GO, already!

This year, April 20 through 28, national parks across the country celebrate "National Park Week 2019" with a variety of special events.

There’s no better time to #FindYourPark / #EncuentraTuParque or to learn about the incredible resources and histories preserved in these special places.

The celebrations and information exchanges with the national park community (everyone from visitors to rangers) are ongoing in the Twitter chat at  #FindYourPark

There's an even BETTER way to make a plan where to visit and participate this summer, or this coming week.  Just get your

FREE "NATIONAL PARK OWNER'S GUIDES."

These 11 FREE DOWNLOADS (plus waay MORE clickable resources) are filled with travel tips and information on what not to miss. There are separate guides for everything from hiking to going green and riding the train to get to the park you want to visit.

Memorial Day 2019: a Challenging Perspective

by Lawrence Wines  It really bothers me that "honoring the service of our veterans" has become a door-opener for lemming-like support of the warconomy. Memorial Day was devised as a way to support widows and orphans of Union dead from the Civil War. By extension, because we keep having wars and so many people show-up to get killed in them, Memorial Day continued its purpose to honor the fallen of all our wars. That's not meant to diminish recognition of the necessity of military response to global fascism in the Second World War, when the outcome would determine what kind of world we would have. Nor can we be deluded into believing that valor, bravery, and sacrifice were unique to that war. Those human traits can be found in every generation, and we should recognize how problematic that is: because battlefield sacrifices are made, at terrible cost, in all manner of conflicts that influence nothing greater than which group of rich manipulators will be given the upper ha...

WHAT WE'RE ALL ABOUT. Reader and contributor orientation. Late April, 2019. Single-item pullout.

You're in the right place! This is the link for just this one feature. But this one is more than an archived "stand alone." It's essential orientation, and your invitation to play!

W elcome!  In the changing world of journalism, many experienced writers, investigative journalists, and print media reporters have lost their jobs due to corporate mega-mergers and the inevitable downsizing that follows. That's also true in television and radio newsrooms, though it's far worse in print-and-web "printed word" reporting. Over 2,400 journalists -- many of them investigative repor...
