>Absolutely! > >I was at a meeting on Wednesday to organize against global racism >(Re: Danish cartoon/"Can't they take a joke", ethnic slums in >France, etc.). I've been wanting to post something about the cartoons. Is the role of Daniel Pipes in all this being acknowledged? The whole thing was a set-up. Best Keith >There were people representing chapters of the Campus Antiwar >Network and the ISO. At the end of the meeting the discussion >shifted to March 18th. There will be a very large mobilization in >Connecticut. In the past, United for Peace and Justice has had huge >mobilizations with 80,000+ people attending in New York City and >entire commuter trains set aside for the ride into the city >(popularly known as the "peace train"). > >Re-inventing the wheel is an appropriate description Keith. > >If you want a strong, grass-roots movement to end the >war/occupation/Bush regime, activists have already been at it for a >long time.
