In the US, there is a wide-ranging network of at least 370 food banks, and more than 60,000 hunger-relief organizations such as food pantries and meal programs. And yet hunger still affects one in nine Americans. What are we doing wrong? In Reinventing Food Banks and Pantries, Katie Martin argues that if handing out more and more food was the answer, we would have solved the problem of hunger decades ago.

When he refused vaccination because he had natural immunity from a previous infection, the University of California, Irvine, medical school fired him. He fought back, in the courts and in the media, and has become a reliable source of truth amid official obfuscation and censorship.

Mit der Corona-Pandemie wurden die schwersten Grundrechtseingriffe in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik vorgenommen. Freiheitsrechte gerieten nicht nur durch politische Entscheidungen, sondern auch durch eine große gesellschaftliche Verunsicherung unter Druck. WOLFGANG KUBICKI will sich der Frage widmen, wieso die Idee der Freiheit so schnell in Verruf geraten konnte, und welche Rolle die Politik, Medien und Gesellschaft in diesem Prozess gespielt haben.
