Important book -
This Story Content is Not FictionStrange that this
book has become unavailable from Amazon.com when it was only published in
11-2005. What Naylor writes about as fiction is happening to many people in
their live's, mine included. That innocent citizens are being tormented like in
Naylor's book, or worse in many cases, as an ongoing daily event is both
depraved and venal. Worse yet, many politicians know about this and aren't doing
anything. Read it as as non-fiction to understand what is really going on under
the guise of spying on citizens for national secuity reasons and related
invasive technologies.
In 1996 novelist Naylor moved to secluded St.
Helena Island. A minor fracas with a crotchety neighbor, whose brother worked
for the National Security Agency, set into motion a series of events that made
Naylor the object of close scrutiny by the government. The intensely private
Naylor found herself in the company of other prominent black writers and
activists targeted by the government. She was harassed until she feared for her
sanity and consulted a psychiatrist. When she discovered that her tormentors
were using mind-control techniques, she fought back with the only weapon she
had--her writing talent. Naylor's account, with first-person recollections of
her experience and third-person speculation on the motives of her tormenters,
not only raises alarms about government actions but also raises many questions
about this work. She includes addenda with research and litigation regarding
government experiments with mind control. Whether readers think Naylor has been
the victim of pernicious abuse or that she has suffered a breakdown, her
incredible book will spark debate about government surveillance and the blurring
of the lines between fiction and nonfiction.

Hear Gloria Naylor here read an
excerpt from 1996 during a conference call with fellow targets.
Eleanor White's bottom line assessment: "1996 is a priceless gift to the
cause of truth, freedom and justice." Let me start by giving the author's
accomplishments as listed on the book's dust jacket:
1996 was written by Gloria Naylor, who is a writer for
theater, film and television and the author of novels which include The
Women of Brewster Place (1983 National Book Award Winner), Mama Day
and Bailey's Cafe. She also edited the anthology, Children of the
Night: The Best Short Stories by Black Writers 1967 to the Present. Her
novels now mark their twelfth language translation.
She has been distinguished with numerous honors including Senior Fellow,
The Society for the Humanities, Cornell University; The President's Medal,
Brooklyn College; and visiting professor, University of Kent, Canterbury,
England.
Ms. Naylor has won Guggenheim and National Endowment for the Arts
fellowships for her novels; for her screen writing, and she has been awarded
the New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship. In April of 1994, Bailey's
Cafe enjoyed a successful run during its world premier at the Hartford
Stage Company.
Tragically, like other victims of what I
call "vigilante stalking and electronic harassment", Gloria's successful career
encountered severe destructive, criminal interference, starting in 1996. Gloria
uses the name "mind control" for this interference, often used by many targets.
One powerful goal of "VS/EH", as I abbreviate it, is indeed the control of
the target's mind. Mind control is certainly not the full story, but if a reader
does a search on the phrase "mind control", they will locate a great deal of
information by and about the targets of vigilante stalking and electronic
harassment.
The first thing some people considering reading 1996 may wonder is
"What the heck IS vigilante stalking and electronic harassment? Or mind control?
I've never heard of those things."
For more detailed information, rather than try to provide that here, I
recommend some web sites which have been specifically set up to tell the story
to people who are totally unaware. The wording of these sites has been pruned
back so an unaware visitor is going to find matter of fact, plain language
information, without being blasted by full technical details. These "VS/EH lite"
sites have already been successful in persuading two groups which are the very
hardest to persuade - targets' family members, and professionals - that they
really do need to take our claims seriously:

[Site information as of January 17, 2006. Those sites link to others.]
For this review, let me summarize vigilante stalking and electronic
harassment as a now tightly networked covert entity, organized and protected by
high level public officials, which uses many 'operatives' to destroy a selected
target's privacy, peace, quality of life, and ability to use their talents to
earn a living. Stalking by many different operatives, intrusions into the
target's home, car and workplace (while the target is away), and use of
electronic technology to silently attack the target's mind and body through
walls combine to turn a target's life into an inescapable nightmare.
Furthermore, the harassment is very carefully designed to make the
target appear to be mentally ill if they complain to public officials or the
medical establishment. This is done by using events which are a normal
part of living, in rotation so no one event happens often enough that a
casual observer will notice. The harassment events are repeated endlessly and
exaggerated, just enough so that the target will notice.
You see, the target sees ALL of these "skits", while casual
observers will only see the harassment occasionally. And of course, the casual
observer does not experience, say, electronic sleep deprivation every single
night for months, years, or decades.
The casual observer is also not a target of lies told to neighbours,
co-workers, friends, and even family by these very well organized criminals. The
lies often paint the target as some sort of criminal, hence, my use of the term
vigilante.
This, reader, is why, if you have not been a target, you probably don't know
about this current day nightmare known as vigilante stalking and electronic
harassment. By the way, it is common for this VS/EH to continue for LIFE. It
does not cease if you move, and that includes moving to other nations.
The book 1996, is Gloria Naylor's RESPONSE to a decade of targeting by
multiple stalkers and through wall electronic technology. The book is a skilled
writer's contribution to the fight to expose and stop these crimes. Gloria tells
the story of 1996 - the year in which her nightmare started. Some of her
material took place later, but a one year snapshot of a target's experience is
sufficient to show what we endure. Following years just grind on with more of
the same type of harassment, even though the exact harassment modes are rotated
from some sort of "master menu", apparently to make it difficult for the target
to convince others the harassment is real.
Gloria Naylor was faced with the problem of how to present her story, given
that the cover up by public officials, and their almost seamless denial, make it
impossible for targets to know very much about the operations. Gloria settled on
a unique way to tell her story, and the end result is a very readable book. Here
is how she describes 1996 in her own words:
"1996 is not a novel, nor is it non-fiction. It is a conflation
[blend] of the two genres."
In other words, Gloria's own story
is fact, and she uses her powers of observation and intellect to create very
believable fictional characters, in the service of the U.S. National Security
Agency, to show how these operations might well be organized and carried out.
As a target since 1980 myself, I found all of Gloria's suppositions about the
covert operations quite plausible.
At this point, reader, you may be shaking your head and denying that public
officials of the United States Government would ever be so corrupt as to carry
out such extensive and expensive harassment programs. Without going in to detail
here, I urge you to learn something about two examples of exactly such extensive
and expensive government crime which took place from the 1950s to the 1970s: The
CIA's MKULTRA programs, and the FBI's COINTELPRO operations. If you take a close
look, you will find the false media spin on MKULTRA, that it involved a few
unwitting adults getting LSD in their drinks, doesn't even scratch the surface.
(The real MKULTRA rivalled the Nazi medical experiments in terms of
atrocity.)
MKULTRA-era programs included the development of electronic anti-mind and
anti-body weapons of just the sort which Gloria Naylor describes. I'm now a
retired engineer and have been a ham radio operator for half a century, and I
assure you, reader, that most of what Gloria Naylor describes can be done using
technologies which are now available, are not secret, and can be had by anyone
with an upper middle class income. And the technology which isn't yet in the
public domain has been publicly hinted at by U.S. Government agencies which
oversee scientific research.
Gloria's book itself should provide targets of vigilante stalking and
electronic harassment with a not too long (126 pages of story, the rest being
appendices) and easy reading story which can be used to explain to reluctant
family members, friends, (and hopefully even medical and public officials) what
we targets are going through. The fact that Gloria is an accomplished author
certainly won't hurt!
In 1996, Gloria had reached the stage in her profession where she could just
afford "a summer place" on one of the Sea Islands along the coast of South
Carolina. This is a great stage in anyone's life. I wondered, as I read
the book, what Gloria may have done to "deserve" her submission to the covert
harassment establishment, which is the typical covert harassment establishment
characteristic of dictatorships. I can't help thinking that her gifts as a
writer, being black and being a woman might have been enough to trigger
jealousy. Many of the targets who keep in touch simply don't know why our names
were submitted to the torturers.
She relates a "problem neighbour" who had cats who wandered into Gloria's
yard and made messes in her garden. Could this have started it all? As a 26-year
veteran target, I can't be sure - this problem neighbour could have been a
designated perpetrator, recruited before Gloria moved there to enjoy the
warm season of 1996. VS/EH perpetrators do that - frequently, they have already
been recruited and are ready to start their particular harassment assignment the
day we move to a new location.
On the fiction side of 1996, you will see how her problem neighbour
has ties to the U.S. National Security Agency. Quite plausible. Although the CIA
and FBI were the historical agencies using VS/EH tactics, there is no principle
of physics or politics that says the NSA couldn't be the source of her torment.
Also on the fiction side, Gloria postulates that, as her harassment unfolds,
people involved in her harassment are given several different versions of the
"awful truth" about her. This is borne out by small bits and pieces of
information our on line membership of several hundred targets are able to glean
once in a great while. We are accused of things like we are criminals, drug
users, drug dealers, prostitutes, or child sex abusers. This readily
allows the supervisors to recruit ordinary citizens to make life Hell for the
target.
One book which provides a rare look behind the scenes at the community level
harassment "corps" is private investigator David Lawson's 2001 book titled "Terrorist Stalking in
America". Local "do good" organizations make excellent harasser recruiting
agencies, and Gloria speculates that one such group was a factor in her first
year as a target.
When an author acquires a summer place, and intends to continue writing, the
peace and quiet of a rural spot are highly valued. Can you guess, reader, what
one of the first (and most consistent) forms of harassment a target might likely
notice at the beginning?
Gloria describes her local street perps very well. Here is a sample
paragraph:
"They are young and old, Jew and gentile, black and white, and
brown and yellow. ... Some are in it for a cause, others for the money. They
walk when they're told to walk, sit where they're told to sit, and follow when
they're told to follow. Above all, they drive when they're told to drive. ...
Most don't notice the lone black woman walking down [the street], and for the
few who do, it doesn't register. Most don't question what all this means, and
for the few who have the courage to ask, they're told, in so many words, to
mind their business and just do what they've signed up to do. They're part of
a puzzle that's overseen by greater minds than theirs. And there is always
someone to replace them if they're unhappy. Of those few who have the courage
to ask, most stay."
As a veteran target, I can tell you that we
do indeed see quite a few "just following orders" perpetrators. However, as with
other characters on the fictional side of
1996, we do also see quite a
few very sick harassers who clearly enjoy their "work."
During the year 1996, Gloria was forced to cut her potentially long (due to
her summer place being in South Carolina and with direct exposure to the Gulf
Stream) summer short, due to the harassment. In my 26 years as a target, I have
noticed that many things, such as sleep (when allowed at all), or a good meal,
or a satisfying walk in the woods or piece of creative work are often "cut
short" by some sort of pronounced upsurge in harassment. A pattern that happens
over and over, endlessly, as one harassment crew is rotated in to our location,
and another goes on to another target. One of our members, Patricia Mougey of
Toledo Ohio, lives in a close-spaced neighbourhood of detached housing, and
being retired, she sees and hears a great deal of what the perpetrators do, and
even some of their interaction with each other. In her 40+ years of this
harassment, she has seen clearly that harassment crews definitely rotate. And
each crew has trainees.
Back in her brownstone home in New York City, Gloria encountered a new, very
common horror, something the United States Army calls "voice to skull". The
Army's acronym, from their on line thesaurus, is "V2K" for this technology.
Voice to skull has been unclassifed and available to anyone who could hire a
microwave engineer to assemble a voice to skull transmitter since 1974. It is
simply an enhancement to the phenomenon discovered in World War II in which
radar technicians who stood in line with moderately powerful radar dishes heard
the train of microwave pulses as a buzz in their heads. No implants are required
for "V2K" to work.
Gloria then encountered a further technology which IS secret at the
moment, the ability to read minds through walls, electronically. When we think
things silently to ourselves, as words, even though our vocal muscles don't form
audible words, there are enough tiny electric currents sent to the vocal cords
that these can be picked up by electronic equipment. One practical use for this
"mind reading" technology was announced in 2004 as being a research project by
NASA for use in detecting "terrorists" at airports.
The proposed equipment was an array of pickups which each air passenger would
momentarily stand under, providing the equipment with a short sampling of the
magnetic fields given off by the brain's electric currents. Computers would then
convert those magnetic signals into signs of criminal intent. Further conversion
into words has been discussed seriously, but at this moment, we don't have a
documented unclassified piece of equipment we can point to as being able to do
that.
But after all, conversion of a collection of waveforms into words is exactly
what "you talk - it types" software does every day.
Following the mainstream news stories about this equipment, the media
suddenly fell silent and have remained silent. Some of us who are targets have
had thought reading demonstrated on us. The way this is done is by setting up a
harassment event which could only have been anticipated if the perpetrators had
actually read our thoughts.
One quick example of a demonstration I experienced was when I ordered 16
topographic maps of various locations in New England. As I pondered which ones
to order, I thought about some of the quadrangles, but rejected them. My written
order was absolutely perfect - the 16 I had chosen were numbered and named
correctly.
When the order arrived, three of the 16 maps were not the ones I had ordered.
But ALL of the three were chosen from the few I had thought about then rejected.
ALL three. These maps were not adjacent to each other in the indexes, so this
was not a simple order picking error. Interpret that as you choose; that plus
other demonstrations, plus the NASA mind reading announcements in the media,
have me convinced.
Gloria shared a very interesting twist of the non-fiction side of her story
during this
telephone conference with our membership. Logically, some targets of
electronic harassment, given that transmitting voice through walls into the
skull of a target does mimic mental illness, will opt to see a psychiatrist.
Gloria did this, and predictably, was placed on anti-psychotic medication. After
waiting for the medication to work, which it did not (as in all targets'
medication trials), the psychiatrist actually revealed to Gloria that he
knew about this harassment crime syndrome, yet did not tell her.
His excuse was that he needed to see if the medication would stop the voice
to skull, so he would have a dependable way to see if Gloria was either truly
mentally ill, or a target. I tend to suspect that there are other doctors who
also know quite well about this modern day "extra-judicial corrections system"
but don't let on about it, causing our members untold grief, not to mention
expense! I won't speculate here about their motives.
In this review, I haven't said much about the actual text written by Gloria
Naylor. I guess that's because to me, the significance of this book is not it's
excellent literary value, but that it is published at all! Since 2001 we
have only had David Lawson's Terrorist Stalking in America as "artillery
support" for our fight, now we have what I consider a second "big gun" on the
firing line!
GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU WELL AND STRONG, GLORIA NAYLOR! (Ditto, Third World

1996 - Our latest stepping stone to justice
In the
mid-1990s, our first stepping stone to justice was the article titled "Microwave
Harassment and Mind Control Experimentation" by Julianne McKinney,
raven1.net/microwav.htm
Our second stepping stone was (and is) the
exhaustive and scholarly research into "non-lethal weapons," (clearly the
birthplace of the living nightmare Ms. Naylor and an estimated three million
North Americans are living,) ... of law student Cheryl Welsh, mindjustice.org
The third stepping stone was the 2001 book about vigilante stalking by
David Lawson, a private investigator, titled "Terrorist Stalking in America",
reviewed here: multistalkervictims.org/terstalk.htm
Ms. Naylor's book,
with some material provided by Cheryl Welsh, is clearly a fourth and major
stepping stone, by which the targets of vigilante stalking and electronic
mind/body harassment hope to see the day the criminals are stripped of their
cover, and justice will be served.
