Holiday Update to the FERAL SCHOLAR ALERT LIST For those of you who haven't seen it, Lila Rajiva has done an expose of David Horowitz's latest effort in his anti-left, anti-woman, anti-gay, xenophobic, anti-Muslim, anti-Black Kulturkampf. Her piece is at http://www.counterpunch.org/rajiva12242005.html . Horowitz's weird site is at http://www.discoverthenetwork.org/default.asp . Here is my end-of-year suggestion. Review the site to see if it has your name listed (mine is, under "anti-war"). This is tricky, becasue the site divides the specific cultural menaces we represent, in the section for "Individuals" (http://www.discoverthenetwork.org/individual.asp), into the following categories: ANTI-ISRAEL ANTI-PATRIOT ACT ANTI-WAR CIVIL LIBERTIES CIVIL RIGHTS ENTERTAINMENT ARTS ENVIRONMENTAL / ANIMAL RIGHTS FEMINIST HUMAN RIGHTS IMMIGRATION MUSLIM NGO POLITICAL RADICAL RELIGIOUS LEFT SOCIAL JUSTICE TERRORIST UNION While many of us could claim several categories, Horowitz's web site designers only let each individual subversive have one category. So you may have to search to find your name, whereupon you can click your name for a bio. My bio was riddled with errors, but it was there. They crib the bios from anything unflattering they can find on the internet. ACTION: If your name is NOT among those listed on Horowitz's site, which I believe can eventually be used as a resource to find speakers and allies, DEMAND THAT THE SITE INCLUDE YOUR NAME, TOO. You can make this demand at the site's comment section -- http://www.discoverthenetwork.org/contact.asp . SAMPLE MESSAGE: Dear Discover the Network dot org: As a charter member of The Network of subversives you are "exposing" so Horowitz can pimp for cash by parlaying ignorance and hatred, I am deeply offended that you have not included my name on this list of your official enemies. Many of us are now convinced that, with proper management, your list could serve as a valuable resource for people seeking collaboration and alliances with anyone who opposes the weird agenda of David Horowitz, Lynn Cheney, and their ilk. I demand that you include my name immediately, and I am enclosing my bio. Thank you. ******************** Feral Scholar is technically a "blog," but it is also an education, community-building, and organizing site.
