Street Party in Downtown San Diego
Plant a Bush in Texas.,

The "Remember the Dead! Fight for the Living! Reclaim the Streets" rally snaked its way through the streets of downtown San Diego. The crowd numbered several hundred and pulsed with vibrant energy. Police followed the Anti-Bush Protestors rather than telling them where to go. The protest moved from Horton Plaza down Fourth Street then turned west by the Ralph's Market and the wound around on Market towards Fifth Street.

AN EMERGENCY CALL TO ACTION! MOUNTAIN JUSTICE
JOHN CONNER,

There is an ecological manmade disaster of geologic proportions occurring in the rolling mountains of the southern Appalachians, its called mountain range -- or mountain top -– removal. It is the ultimate in theft of a people's heritage -- the destruction of watersheds -- and the annihilation of one of the most diverse places on earth. And the perpetrators are turning it into the biological equivalent of a parking lot. The theft of our mountains is escalating as the coal companies strive to outdo one another in their orgy of destruction.

Looking Back Five Years to The Battle of Seattle
santacruz.indymedia.org c/o lotus,

November 30, 1999 represented a triumphal moment for worldwide civil resistance against a global economic system that gives private corporations more power than governments. In the morning hours of N30, 1999, tens of thousands of activists from across the globe converged in the streets of downtown Seattle, to shut down meetings of the World Trade Organization, the undemocratic, international governing forum of neoliberal globalization.

The conflict became infamous around the world, partially because of the violent police response to the largely peaceful demonstrations. In years since, N30 has been remembered in the streets of Seattle and around the globe, with marches, rallies and celebrations of resistance. Dialogues about the effectiveness of the movement have multiplied in number, both within and beyond activist circles. The date is also remembered as the birth of the Independent Media Center, www.Indymedia.org.

At the WTO protests in Seattle, we had a collective vision. We saw beyond the borders that divide us. We saw people come together across every kind of political and cultural difference and stand up in a way that we had not seen in this country for decades. We saw peaceful protests shut down one of the most powerful institutions in the world and we saw a system dazed and frightened by the sound of our voices.
