EMERGENCY! MOVE UNDER ATTACK! A REPORT FROM PHILADELPHIA by Hans Bennett
Hans Bennett,
|
I am writing this early Tuesday morning (Sept.17) right after visiting the MOVE home on Kingsessing Ave. in West Philadelphia. I spoke with three MOVE members keeping watch at the front gate of their home while the rest of the family was inside trying to get some rest. The situation is very tense right now and MOVE must be on 24 hour watch. The windows of their house (facing the street) are boarded up in preparation for a police assault.
Welcome to Philadelphia!

On the obligation to smile in Chinese workcamps
Gao Er Tai,
|
... But, to speak of it again, our smiling and running weren't the same as normal smiling and running. The basis for a normal smile is happiness, and for normal running is strength. These must be presupposed. Each of us carried on a long and bitter struggle within themselves. When the eyes narrowed, the two corners turned downward; when the mouth opened, its two corners raised up: all this was squeezed together, so the slanted wrinkles on the face became straight, and made a smiling face. It was strenuous and to maintain for a long time took a great effort. The smiles showed the strain and looked a little like crying.

Over 200 Turn Out in S.D. to Honor 9/11 Victims, Call for Peace
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zengers Newsmagazine,
|
Over 200 people turned out in the Pepper Grove of Balboa Park September 11 for an early-evening commemoration of last years terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. Sponsored by the San Diego Peace and Justice Coalition, the event was billed as an Alternative Memorial whose purpose, according to the leaflet advertising it, was to mourn those who have died and truly honor their memory by calling for peace and justice. Speakers used the occasion not only to acknowledge the death toll on 9/11 but also to oppose the Bush administrations determination to fight a war with Iraq and its attacks on civil liberties in the name of a war on terrorism.

Stephanie Jennings: Seeing the Effects of Anti-Iraq Sanctions First-Hand
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zengers Newsmagazine,
|
Veteran San Diego peace activist Stephanie Jennings, who spoke at the alternative memorial to the 9/11 victims Wednesday, September 11 in Balboa Park, has had first-hand experience of the devastation already wrought against Iraq by the U.S. not only by the periodic bombing raids ordered by former President Clinton throughout the 1990s but also by the devastating economic sanctions imposed on the country by the United Nations Security Council at the insistence of the U.S. This interview, reprinted from the May 1998 issue of Zengers Newsmagazine, is timely in demonstrating just how much damage the U.S. has already done to the country the Bush administration now plans to attack and how little the devastation wreaked on average Iraqis has harmed Saddam Hussein.

The Panama Deception: Putting 9/11 in a New Light [documentary video]
Empowerment Project,
|
America’s invasion of Panama in 1989 is a perfect example of U.S. fascism. Over four thousand innocent civilians were brutally massacred to secure U.S. control over the Panama Canal and the Central American drug trade. Furthermore, Panama is now being used as a staging ground for all U.S. military interventions in Central and South America. Panama is the geostrategic key to military control over the Americas.

Housing Advocates Call San Diegos Rents Obscene
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,
|
At the San Diego IMCs monthly film night September 10, San Diego Street Light editor/publisher Rocky Neptun and Rick McGaffigan of the San Diego Housing Coalition and San Diego HOPES [Housing for People in Emergency Situations] discussed the business and political decisions that are leading to skyrocketing rents in San Diego. They praised the organizing effort that got out 1,000 people to a San Diego City Council meeting August 6 to demand a housing emergency declaration from the Council, but criticized the Councils actions as not going far enough and said affordable housing advocates need to be involved in both community organizing and City Council election campaigns to address the issue.

September 11, 2002
Mark Gabrish Conlan, Zenger's Newsmagazine,
|
Written on the morning of September 11, 2002, this editorial for the forthcoming October 2002 issue of Zenger's Newsmagazine argues that the U.S. response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks has been vicious and counterproductive. Instead of a democratic country seeking due process and justice with the cooperation of other nations, the U.S. has reacted like the old Roman empire and trashed its own best values of civil liberties and due process, as well as murdering innocent civilians of its own in Afghanistan and soon will kill more in Iraq.
