"You
can look at war as a massing of arms and matérial and
troops, but you can also see it as something else--as a delicate
web of interwoven choices made by human beings, made out of
a certain consciousness. The decision to order an attack,
the choice to obey or disobey an order, to fire or not to
fire a weapon. Armies and, indeed, any culture that supports
them must convince the people that all the decisions are made
already, and they have no choice. But that is never true."
The Fifth Sacred Thing" by Starhawk

Dreaming a New America:
Peaceful Regime Change in 2004
By Farai Chideya, AlterNet
March 20, 2003
Our dreams are the North Star by which we navigate. In hard
times, they should get bigger rather than smaller. I think
of the first enslaved Africans in America, standing on auction
blocks, someone's dirty thumb checking their teeth as if they
were horses. They dreamed of freedom, and passed that dream
to children and children's children until some modicum of
freedom was achieved. READ

| Shocked
Nation
By Clark
Brittain
The nation was shocked by the 9/11 attacks nearly 2 years
ago. Early evidence pointed to Osama bin Laden and the al
Qaeda network as the culprits.
Bush asked the Taliban to hand over Bin Laden. READ

Your
Rights: Use 'Em or Lose 'Em
By Rachel Neumann, AlterNet
May 30, 2003
When I
was growing up, there was a popular bumper sticker, seen
mostly on the back of old VW vans that said: "What
if there was a war and nobody came?" I am reminded
of that bumper sticker now, in light of this administration's
unprecedented attack on civil liberties. What if our basic
rights were taken away and no one noticed? What if our system
of checks and balances was destroyed and everyone remained
convinced it was happening to someone else? READ

From
Cancun to the Miami FTAA Mobilization:
Victory¹s Strategic Momentum
By Starhawk
Those of us who went
to Cancun to protest the World Trade Organization¹s
ministerial came back with pinkeye, exhaustion, deep coughs,
and heat rashes, but the rosy flush of victory made all
the rest worthwhile. Sweet victory is rare in progressive,
political work. Generally, we end a mobilization reminding
ourselves that we are working for long term change, while
the policies we are contesting remain in force. Seldom do
we get to dance in the streets, celebrating an immediate
collapse of some undemocratic negotiation or unjust institution.

We
Were Just Talking:
(Yet) another conversation about Dennis Kucinich
Daniel Patrick Welch
I was surprised by
an email from an old friend, usually apolitical, who wanted
to engage me about Dennis Kucinch. While I don't always
put my heart into rising to such bait, I was invigorated
enough by our exchange to share it with the world:
My friend began:Danny, I have to ask...if you're intent
on dispensing with Bush, why are you backing Kucinich instead
of a Democratic candidate with a chance? I'm not settled
on anyone as of yet--I can barely keep track of who's running--but
after going with Nader in 2000, I can't stomach going with
a beautiful loser Democrat on election day and then watching
four more years of Bush. What are your thoughts? READ

Today" by Darrell Black, an american visual artist

"Nonviolence is
absolute commitment to the way of love. Love is not emotional
bash; it is not empty sentimentalism. It is the active outpouring
of one's whole being into the being of another." - Martin
