Jerry Falwell’s Legacy
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

Jerry Falwell, who died May 15, permanently changed the face of American politics. While he didn't actually found the Moral Majority — he was merely recruited as a figurehead by secular Republican political operatives who wanted to pull the votes of evangelical Christians away from Jimmy Carter in the 1980 election — he and the movement he helped launch have made it impossible to win high elective office in the U.S. without believing in an interventionist God who takes a direct, ongoing role in human affairs. Falwell's movement also has established a relentlessly anti-women's rights, anti-Queer rights base of support for the Republican Party and been a key factor in moving the entire center of gravity in U.S. politics Rightward for the last quarter-century.

SD Artist Cultivates Spiritual, Sexual Garden
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

San Diego artist François Michel Beausoleil is noteworthy for the rich colors and backgrounds of his paintings and their wide variety of subject matter, from poerful male nudes to peaceful contemplations of the spiritual world. A French Canadian from Montreal, Beausoleil considers himself multicultural and regards his theme as the common nature of humanity. He's currently at work on a series of paintings called "My Spiritual Garden" which he hopes to exhibit as a group; the paintings consist of various individuals posed in the Buddhist meditation pose inside the lotus flower.

6th @ Penn’s Human Rights Plays
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

The 6th @ Penn Theatre, 3704 Sixth Avenue in Hillcrest, is currently mounting a festival called "Resilience of the Spirit," showcasing plays dealing with human rights. A brilliant double bill called "The Last Class," in which a retiring classics professor gives a final lecture that spills over into shocking revelations about her private life, and "A Hundred Birds," in which victims of a child molester reunite as adults and kidnap their victimizer, alternates with "Lemkin's House," a fantasy in which Raphael Lemkin — a Polish Jew who fled his country when the Nazis conquered it and later coined the term "genocide" in his analysis of Nazi occupation — survives his actual death in 1959 and responds to more recent genocides in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda and Darfur.

Immigration Activists Clash at Queer Democratic Club
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

Immigration-rights attorney Lilia Velasquez and Mary Moreno Richardson, reverend canon of St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral, were brought in to speak at the predominantly Queer San Diego Democratic Club May 24. While they largely agreed on the need to protect immigrants' rights against abusive Border Patrol enforcement and private Minuteman vigilantism, they disagreed dramatically on the merits of the current "compromise" immigration bill before the U.S. Senate. Richardson hailed the bill as a start for a long-needed discussion on the issue, while Velasquez denounced it as repressive and said that no bill at all would be better for immigrants than the one being proposed now.

Robert Gallo on the Witness Stand
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

This year, an "HIV positive" Australian man accused of having unprotected sex with three women and giving the alleged "AIDS virus" to one, tried to appeal his conviction on the basis of alternative scientific research that HIV doesn't exist and the tests to detect it are invalid. He lost the case, but alternative AIDS scientists, journalists and activists got a valuable consolation prize when Robert Gallo, co-discoverer of HIV and the man who did more than any other individual to establish "HIV/AIDS" as uunchallengeable scientific dogma, took the witness stand and inadvertently admitted that the declaration of HIV as the cause of AIDS was based on politics, not science.

Mike Byron Speaks on "Infinity's Rainbow"
Mike Byron on "Infinity's Rainbow" in S.D.,

Mike Byron, author, political science professor and former Congressional candidate, spoke to the San Diego Humanist Association at the San Diego Public Library May 20 and introduced his new book, "Infinity's Rainbow." LIke the book, his presentation linked four issues that threaten the very existence of U.S. and world civilization: global warming, the exhaustion of the world's fossil-fuel reserves, the incredible power corporations have over American politics and the rising influence of the radical Christian Right, particularly the so-called "dispensationalists" who regard war in the Middle East as a necessary step towards the fulfillment of the prophecies of the Book of Revelation and their own salvation in a divine "Rapture" that will lift them bodily from this earth just before it collapses.

Ageist Editorial Cartoon from SD Union Tribune
Cynthia Oso,

As you look at the cartoon, mother and father look at their daughter protesting. Apparently, Paris Hilton got in trouble with the law and so this girl (of 2007) walks proudly with the "FREE PARIS HILTON" sign. And the mother says, "I guess every generation has its own idea of social activism."

To me personally, that's bullshit. I have not seen any person of my generation walk around with signs as ridiculous as that. I didn't really get the cartoon because really, I haven't heard or seen anyone speaking for Paris Hilton. And if I did, I'd smack the shit out of them haha.

Jeremy Scahill Denounces Blackwater in San Diego
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

Jeremy Scahill, author of "Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Missionary Army," spoke in San Diego May 1 and La Mesa May 2 on Blackwater U.S.A., the politically connected "security" firm supplying more than 120,000 personnel to the U.S. occupation of Iraq — including at least 40,000 mercenaries in combat operations — and its secretive radical-Right founder, Erik Prince. He was brought to San Diego by opponents of the 824-acre training camp Blackwater wants to build in the quiet southeastern San Diego community of Potrero, and he discussed the company's Republican political connections, its involvement in Iraq and the Katrina response, and the failure of the U.S. mainstream media to cover these issues more critically.

Call for Submissions: Zine on Property Destr
Casey Ford,

Entering the radical community, many quickly find themselves constantly hearing about debate over property destruction. Is it violence? Does it matter if it's violence? Is it effective? Is it alienating? And on and on. I've been hearing this argument pretty much since I regularly started attending protests. At this point, I almost don't want to deal with the subject. Naturally, you're asking, "Then why the hell do you want to make a zine about it?"
