One-part visionary platform, one-part practical toolkit, the Red Deal is a platform that encompasses everyone, including non-Indigenous comrades and relatives who live on Indigenous land. We—Indigenous, Black and people of color, women and trans folks, migrants, and working people—did not create this disaster, but we have inherited it. We have barely a decade to turn back the tide of climate disaster. It is time to reclaim the life and destiny that has been stolen from us and rise up together to confront this challenge and build a world where all life can thrive. Only mass movements can do what the moment demands. Politicians may or may not follow--it is up to them--but we will design, build, and lead this movement with or without them.The Red Deal is a call for action beyond the scope of the US colonial state. It’s a program for Indigenous liberation, life, and land—an affirmation that colonialism and capitalism must be overturned for this planet to be habitable for human and other-than-human relatives to live dignified lives. The Red Deal is not a response to the Green New Deal, or a “bargain” with the elite and powerful. It’s a deal with the humble people of the earth; a pact that we shall strive for peace and justice and a declaration that movements for justice must come from below and to the left.

The credibility of the World Health Organization is critically examined through its responses to major health crises, including SARS, H1N1, Ebola, and various diseases like smallpox, malaria, onchocerciasis, polio, and AIDS. This study highlights the organization's challenges and effectiveness in managing significant public health threats, providing insight into its operational strategies and the implications for global health governance.

Focusing on the management challenges facing United Nations organizations, the book examines critical issues such as the political selection of leaders, inspection roles, financial crises, and allegations of corruption. It addresses staff compensation, gender discrimination, and the influence of Administrative Tribunals. The analysis includes reform proposals and assesses the accountability of executive heads while emphasizing that Member States bear the ultimate responsibility for implementing effective reforms. The central question posed is whether they genuinely desire a more effective UN.

This perceptive book highlights the need for cooperation between major organisations - whether intergovernmental, commercial or nongovernmental - to ensure developing countries have access to affordable medicines and vaccines, in spite of their different mandates and interests.
