The High Priests of Economic Nonsense
26-08-2004 16:35
"The rules of social state restraint of wild capitalism are ignored. The class struggle from above has long been a fact since the coalition of capital with the government is fairly stable and the media play along. Resistance is inevitable because more is at stake than working hours and wages, namely the dignity of people and balance in the globalized world.. An economic literacy must be part of the enlightenment project.."Anyone going to the Republican party congress?

From the front-lines of conflicts in Mexico, Argentina, South Africa, Palestine, Korea, 'the North' from Seattle to Genova, and the 'War on Terror' in New York, Afghanistan, and Iraq, comes a feature-length documentary from Big Noise Films. The product of over two years of filming on the inside of movements on five continents, "The Fourth World War" is a film that would have been unimaginable at any other moment in history. Directed by the makers of "This Is What Democracy Looks Like" and "Zapatista" , produced through a global network of independent media and activist groups, it is a truly global film from and for our global movement.

Research Survey for a Sustainable Clothing Industry
23-08-2004 18:05
The global clothing industry involves several important social, political, economic, and environmental issues. This survey is part of the research for my senior thesis on how the clothing choices of socially conscious, politically active, and/or radically thinking people can be agents of change for the global clothing industry."9/11 National Security Protection Act"--Sen. Roberts goes berserk

23-08-2004 13:24
Entrepreneurial freedom is introduced as a new basic right. Art 14 of the German consti-tution "Property obligates and should serve the well-being of the general public" is not followed.. Which God is worshipped in the draft of the EU constitution? Which God should govern us in the future? It is the god of the neoliberals, of corporations. People are sacrificed to the idol of the open market economy with free competition.Planning the deaths of innocent People

Victoria, BC was very important, to the world, except to me B.U.T. I am
seeing that we have become the focus of these racist and amerikkkan
paranoic assaults like the rest of the dissidents in larger more well
known cities. I fear that I might fail my community of New Palestine/The

Revolution is Bloody
21-08-2004 19:42
It is true we shouldn't be afraid of martyrdom, however, we should notbe selecting and setting each other up for that position nor should we
be afraid to hold up the images of our martyrs and shout out their names
and certainly continue the fight and struggle. What is the trap of the
west? to think, as Gil Scott Heron observed, that the Calvary always
comes to save the day and that the hero lives to see the glory of that
day. We have forgotten that it is about the future/the Culture/Sankofa
not "the crazy house called ameriKKKAnada" and profits. So we are going
to get martyrs.
