Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting
This is a media watchdog website. It is an important resource if you are interested in what exactly is wrong with the current state of the mainstream corporate media today. The documented amount of lies, deception and intentional attempt to narrow the framework of discussion is mind-boggling.

Z-Magazine
People like Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Edward S. Herman, and Robert Fisk writes for this online magazine along with many other dope writers. Although, watch out though for some writers (ie. Tarek Fatah wrote a couple of idiotic articles on this site). Judge every article and writer on a case by case basis.

The Official Website of Noam Chomsky
Noam Chomsky is one of the greatest intellectual of our times. To not familiarize yourself with his thinking and writings is lunacy to me. Even if you disagree with him, you are only cheating yourself if you don't look into his works.

The Official Website of Howard Zinn
Zinn is the author of "The People's History of the United States" and it is an awesome take on American history (told from the bottom up of the social/economic ladder). Truly a groundbreaking book and one of the greatest minds of our time.

Toronto18.com
These 18 men were convicted by the media in both the U.S. and Canada before a trial even began. Innocent until proven guilty ... no less. You can find all the important information available to the public here.

Friends & Family of Mumia Abu-Jamal
Convicted of first degree murder and currently serving two life sentence, the case of Mumia is riddled with many injustices regarding how he was tried. The judge appeared more concerned with expediting the trial than ensuring justice, the politisation of the judicial process and possible bias of the appeal courts. Many prominent organizations (including Amnesty International) and individuals have called for a new and fair trial for him.

International Office of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee
A victim of an unjust judicial process and is considered a political prisoner by many prominent organizations and individuals. His avenues of redress have been exhausted and many are recognizing that a retrial is no longer a feasible and many are now calling for his immediate and unconditional release.

Understanding Islam
There are many differing opinions in Islam regarding different issues. In light of the current political environment, Islam and Muslims have been subjected to tremendous amount of prejudices and distortions. Do not go to mainstream media lackeys like Tarek Fatah and Irshad Manji who are not only disrespectful to those who adhere to a different perspective of Islam (ironic that they are asking to be respected), but they also hold barely any clout within the Muslim community. This website is really good in that it informs the readers of many differing opinions regarding any particular issue. Of course, there are more sites out there. A great resource for Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
