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.

Mother of Ciudad Juárez Victim Speaks in S.D.
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,

Ciudad Juárez resident Ramona Morales delivered a passionate and moving speech October 27 about the loss of her daughter in 1995, one of the first of over 380 women killed in that border city (next to El Paso) and Chihuahua state since NAFTA took effect in 1994. She was part of a series of cross-country caravans scheduled to converge on Chihuahua city for the inauguration of a new governor, who has pledged to solve the murders despite the rumored involvement of police and other authorities in the killings.

USA (Boston): police killed 21-year old girl
c y ,

60.000 to 80.000 people celebrated the victory of the "Red Sox" in Boston. However, police went crazy and shot a 21-year old girl with a "non"-lethal weapon in the eye. She died.
There was no specific action she did, there were no "riots" around her, nothing. She was just celebrating and chanting with others.

Valuing the Lives of the People vs. Wanton Po
iskra,

If they were there to serve and protect, they would have found any way but the way they did it to handle this scene, they could have and would have found a solution that was much better than this. This is the way the proletariat, when it's been in power, has handled and would again handle this kind of thing--valuing the lives of the masses of people- -as opposed to the bourgeoisie in power, where the role of their police is to terrorize the masses, including wantonly murdering them, murdering them without provocation, without necessity, because exactly the more arbitrary the terror is, the more broadly it affects the masses.

Tactical Escalation
tactical,

At the RNC, I noticed two conflicting trends, one hopeful and one disturbing.

At two separate events, fire was used as a tactic at the RNC protests. In both instances, organizers claimed that the people who had set the fires were undercover police and provocateurs. There was one trend, initiated by an unknown source to escalate confrontations, there was another to decry such escalation.

Veterans Expose U.S. Military Atrocities
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,

The September 25 program at the First Unitarian-Universalist Church in Hillcrest was advertised as “War Crimes and Atrocities: The Rumsfeld Connection.” While the current U.S. Secretary of Defense was mentioned only in passing, the matter-of-fact tones in which the speakers, veterans Dennis Stout and Dorothy Mackey, told their stories chilled the blood of most of the 250 people in the room.

Veronza Bowers, Political Prisoner
Veronza Bowers and others,

Veronza Bowers, a former Black Panther Party member who has served 30 years in federal prison and is therefore eligible for mandatory parole, was nonetheless kept incarcerated after his mandatory release date of April 7, 2004. This post, passed on via the Oread Daily from Bowers himself and his legal defense network, describes a situation that's all too believable in light of the U.S. government's vindictive treatment of other ex-Panthers and fellow political prisoners (Mumia, Peltier, Imam Jamil, et al.).
