http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/14716-the-failure-of-multiculturalism-and-the-necessity-of-democracy
David Palumbo-Liu, Truthout: Social practices that best deliver multiculturalism are those that at the same time may be regarded as enactments of democratic enfranchisement, the very thing that should inform the heart of the multicultural project.

The Draft: A War-Killer
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/14742-the-draft-a-war-killer
