Wed, 10/12/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield

This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week, Monsanto gets its day in court at the International Court of Justice in the Hague – and ecocide might finally be considered an actual crime. In solidarity, March against Monsanto wants you to join in wherever you are for World Food Day this Sunday.

Second to last, the fight IS the light, and finally, answer MY call in beating a lame duck.
