I invite all my brothers and sisters in the movement to come to D.C. for the International Day(s) of Peace, Sept. 20 & 21. One of those two days, the National Campaign of Nonviolent Resistance will be organizing a massive nonviolent direct action on Capitol Hill. Why should I come to D.C. instead of trying to do something in my own area? First of all, the powerholders will be in town on Sept. 20/21, and therefore we should be as well. We should be peacefully occupying Capitol Hill and surrounding the symbol of our supposed democracy -- the Capitol Building. Every day we do not act in concert, to make the strongest statement possible is another day of death and destruction in Iraq. Why should we not just then press for the biggest action possible in order to directly confront those continuing to fund war and military occupation? Start: 00:00

Join the nationwide protest against a racist outrage. Six young African American students (ages 16-18) have been framed up in Jena, Louisiana and are facing up to life in prison for a schoolyard fight with a white student. It all began when African American students dared to sit under the “white tree” outside the school. Three nooses were then found hanging from the tree. Three white students were expelled by the principal, but the superintendent of schools reduced it to a 3-day suspension, calling it a “prank.” Afterwards, all of the African American students stood under the tree. The District Attorney came to the school and told the African American students to stop the protests or “I can end your lives with one stroke of my pen.” Start: 20:00
For Colleagues of Sam Adams Associates for Integrity in Intelligence AND other friends interested in Iraq, Iran, intelligence, and truth: It has been exactly three years since (with the help of Prof. Peter Kuznick of American University, Dan Ellsberg, and supportive friends) we held that wonderful gathering of truth-tellers (and hundreds of their closest friends, as well as students) in that cavernous auditorium at American University. It's a morale boost just to recall all those folks sitting/standing in the aisles—Dan Ellsberg, Coleen Rowley (then still with the FBI), Katharine Gunn (from UK intelligence), Col. Frank Grevil (from Danish intelligence), Ann Wright and John H. Brown (two of the three Foreign Service Officers who quit because of the invasion of Iraq), David MacMichael et. al. It was a memorable evening. But there was a hidden blessing. | ||

Background: Last fall, when two Black high school students sat under the "white" tree on their campus, white students responded by hanging nooses from the tree. When Black students protested the light punishment for the students who hung the nooses, District Attorney Reed Walters came to the school and told the students he could "take [their] lives away with a stroke of [his] pen." Racial tension continued to mount in Jena, and the District Attorney did nothing in response to several egregious cases of violence and threats against black students. But when a white student--who had been a vocal supporter of the students who hung the nooses--taunted a black student, allegedly called several black students "nigger", and was beaten up by black students, six black students were charged with second-degree attempted murder. Last month, the first young man to be tried, Mychal Bell, was convicted. Later this month, he will be sentenced to up to 22 years in prison for a school fight. Start: 00:00

Ever wish nostalgically for the old days? When we had a constitutionally-elected President who can speak sequential intelligent sentences extemporaneously? When the apparently pressing issue of the day were stains on a blue dress and his attempt to protect his family's personal life? Care to reminisce? Happy Days are here again! See: Bill Clinton on The Daily Show Former President Bill Clinton will be sitting down with Jon Stewart on the Daily Show for the third next Thursday, September 20. We can't say for certain what the purpose of his visit will be, but it's a safe bet to assume that it has something to do with his new book, Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World, which, we understand, is some kind of a sci-fi vampire novel. (We also wouldn't discount some discussion of his chances at being the first male First Lady.) Start: 11:00

Matthew Rothschild, editor of The Progressive and author of "You Have No Rights - Stories of America in an Age of Repression will speak on the Bush administration's assault on civil liberties. His newspaper commentaries have run in many national newspapers, including The Chicago Tribune, The L.A. Times, The Miami Herald, and a host of other newspapers. You Have No Rights tells 82 harrowing stories of people in America whose rights were trampled on. Rothschild demonstrates how the war in Iraq has also been a war on our liberties. The stories he tells add up to a powerful indictment of our political leaders; but they also remind us, as citizens, that we must insist on taking back our stolen rights. -Howard Zinn Start: 18:30

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 21st & every third Friday Over 60% of Americans want this war over-yesterday - that was clear last November. Yet here we are, seven months later and the political process is moving glacially, at best. It's got to stop! We've got to stop it! The concept is simple. On September 21 and on every subsequent Third Friday, millions of Americans will break with their daily routine to take some concrete step to demand an end to the war and the return home of the troops. This will be an escalating series of actions serving to maximize, multiply and reenergize existing activists and even more importantly give voice to the silent majority of people who want an end to our engagement in Iraq. The hallmark will be the wearing of black ribbons and armbands, in mourning for all of those who have died in this senseless adventure--Iraqis, Americans, coalition troops, and others. Start: 08:45

This hearing will feature witnesses who have been fired, demoted, threatened, intimidated and even detained for speaking the truth about Iraq contracting practices.

The Walter Reed Vigil is now in its third year. Support in the immediate community, around the country, and around the world continues to grow. We call on all who believe in the Vigil message to join us, particularly this Friday night, September 21, 2007, to participate in the National effort to end the war, calling on everyone to do something, an action large or small, wearing armbands, holding vigils, initiating discussions in the workplace and elsewhere, and, for some, civil disobedience. No one who opposes this war and occupation...opposes war with Iran...can afford to sit by waiting for someone else to get the job done. It is more important than ever for us all to act. Please join us at the Vigil on Friday evening. Busboys and Poets can wait a couple hours. Make this your night to be on the street. Vigil Status ...in case you wonder, is it meaningful to be standing in front of Walter Reed Army Medical Center for two hours on a Friday night | ||

Money for Bridges and Cities, NOT War! Sept. 29 in DC On October 1, Congress is scheduled to authorize over $100 billion for continued war in Iraq, and estimates for the long term costs of the war are over $2 trillion. Already more than $500 billion has been spent. Meanwhile, as the tragedy following this week's collapse of a bridge in Minneapolis reminds us, we face daily danger from our collapsing infrastructure. This includes, not only 590,000 bridges, but roads, rail lines, subways, levees, preparedness for natural disaster emergencies, schools, hospitals, etc. Almost five years of U.S. occupation has destroyed the cities and towns of Iraq, killed more than 1 million Iraqis, created 4 million refugees (2 million displaced inside Iraq and 2 million refugees in nearby countries) left 70% of the population without potable water, electricity, schools or hospitals. Almost 4,000 U.S. GIs have died, many thousands are injured and maimed. Start: 00:00

President Bush,"W" and V.Pres. Chaney SHOULD NOT only be IMPEACHED BUT they should both be turned over to the INTERNATIONAL COURT to be tried for WAR CRIMES. They and the Republican controlled Congress (2003-2007)have literally stolen our constitution from us. Yes the Democrats were in control of Congress when the "Exploratory War Authorization" was approved, but I don't believe any one anticipated that "W" would do what he has done since then, except possibly those Republican Insiders that had prior knowlege of his Ultimate Plans. His abuse of the "Signing Statements" is just one example of why, now that the Democrats are again in control, they can't control what he does without some help from the Republicans. As a longtime student of our Constitution, I don't understand why more Republicans aren't OUTRAGED by what he has been allowed to get away with in his destruction of our Constitution!!!!!!!!!!!!

At 8:30 a.m., at least twelve marches, starting at different locations throughout New York City, will converge at the United Nations to confront President Bush when he arrives to address the General Assembly. People, carrying coffins, beating drums, holding signs demanding that President Bush be arrested - some vowing to arrest him themselves - will surround the United Nations and declare the illegitimacy of the Bush Administration and its on-going occupation of Iraq. A "citizen's arrest" of George Bush will happen at the UN. Although the exact details will be worked out by those involved, the idea is to bring a warrant for his arrest for Murder, Kidnapping, Torture, Destruction of Property, Illegal Wiretapping etc. to the UN and try to detain him so that we can put him on trial for these crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo, and at home.

Bush, and Partner, Sidley Austin LLP Moderated by: In the new book Less Safe, Less Free: Why America is Losing the War on Terror, Georgetown Law Professor David Cole and his co-author Jules Lobel argue that the "preventive paradigm" adopted by the Bush administration not only has undermined our nation's character but has also made us more vulnerable to terrorist attacks.

BUSH – CHENEY STOP IRAQ OCCUPATION NOW! TAKE DIRECT IMPEACHMENT ACTION Rep. Allen knows that Bush-Cheney have committed impeachable offenses but refuses to sign onto legislation calling for their impeachment. Help us demand justice and respect for the Constitution! Join the Maine Campaign to Impeach as we hand out leaflets, rally, and march to the office of Rep. Tom Allen. Rally 1:00 pm at Tommy's Park, then at 1:30 pm we'll deliver letters demanding impeachment to Allen's Office. Rep. Tom Allen has recently acknowledged that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney have committed multiple impeachable offenses. But Rep. Allen refuses to support legislation calling for impeachment of Bush-Cheney because it would be a “distraction.” Since when is protecting the Constitution a distraction? (Impeachment by the House of Representatives actually just means investigations for crimes against the Constitution.) Start: 15:00

Money for Bridges and Cities, NOT War! Sept. 29 in DC On October 1, Congress is scheduled to authorize over $100 billion for continued war in Iraq, and estimates for the long term costs of the war are over $2 trillion. Already more than $500 billion has been spent. Meanwhile, as the tragedy following this week's collapse of a bridge in Minneapolis reminds us, we face daily danger from our collapsing infrastructure. This includes, not only 590,000 bridges, but roads, rail lines, subways, levees, preparedness for natural disaster emergencies, schools, hospitals, etc. Almost five years of U.S. occupation has destroyed the cities and towns of Iraq, killed more than 1 million Iraqis, created 4 million refugees (2 million displaced inside Iraq and 2 million refugees in nearby countries) left 70% of the population without potable water, electricity, schools or hospitals.

Mr. Curry will be a speaker at our event. The roast takes place on Wednesday, September 26, at Duke City (as in Duke Ellington), a fine restaurant at 1208 “U” Street, NW, with a nightclub setting on the second floor.

Dear Activists for the Earth, We are writing to invite you, to urge you, to participate in two important actions being planned for the morning of Sept. 27th and noontime on Sept. 28th in Washington, D.C. Here's the scoop: In an unprecedented and clearly manipulative move, George Bush is inviting top leaders from around the world to Washington, D.C. September 27-28th to officially convey his "deep concern" about global warming. His proposed fix: more useless "voluntary" measures and huge subsidies for "clean coal" and nuclear energy. The event is clearly meant to undermine real international efforts now underway to achieve stronger, mandatory greenhouse gas cuts under the Kyoto process, and we will be there to have our voices heard in protest. On Thursday morning, just before the conference begins, scores of us will be joining together to engage in an act of nonviolent civil disobedience. If you want to participate with us in this act or are seriously interested, please call or email Ted Glick at 301-891-6723 or usajointheworld@igc.org. The next day there will be a major rally at 12 noon, on the day when Bush is speaking inside the State Dept. We have the grassy area between D & E Streets at Virginia Avenue, on the northeast side of the State Department, reserved for this event. There will be speakers, including Van Jones of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, music and theatre. Please save the date and register for the rally at http://www.climateemergency.org so we can keep you updated in the coming days. Also please check in frequently for updates at the website listed above, or by calling 301-891-6723. Top ministers and heads of state from around the world will be attending Bush's conference as well as a great concentration of national and international media. We need to show up and loudly proclaim our own message: George Bush doesn't speak for us! We want real climate action now! Sincerely,
Join hundreds of activists for the Earth outside the State Dept. next Friday, Sept. 28th at noon. Protest climate disrupter George Bush who will be speaking inside to a conference of the 17 major carbon emitters of the world. Bush has called this conference to try to undercut international negotiations underway to come up with a stronger treaty to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, something urgently needed. Bush will attempt to line up countries behind useless "voluntary" measures and huge subsidies for non-existent "clean coal" and nuclear power. The noon rally will include Van Jones of the Ella Baker Center for Human rights, other speakers and music. More information can be found at http://www.climateemergency.org.

We stand at a dangerous precipice. Millions in Iraq and the Middle East, in the U.S., and across the globe want the Iraq war to end. But the Bush regime is preparing just the opposite: to continue its murderous escalation in Iraq (antiseptically labeled the "surge") – and very likely launch a massive air attack on Iran. It's estimated that half the U.S.' warships are now poised near Iran, including three aircraft carriers. This means that an attack on Iran wouldn't have to be preceded by a drawn out and obvious military build up. It could come very quickly – without warning – in an effort to "shock and awe" the world with a "fait accompli" – and stun people into passivity. | ||

LORI SWANSON, Minnesota's Attorney General, will speak on predatory lending practices, along with a panel discussion in formation. Minnesota’s predatory mortgage lending law, considered among the strongest in the nation, requires lenders to verify borrowers’ ability to repay their loan; bans refinancing loans without benefit to the borrower; and caps points and fees, among other provisions prohibiting unfair lending practices. The law was developed by Attorney General Lori Swanson’s Predatory Mortgage Lending Study Group, involving consumer advocates, bankers, business people and state legislators convened by Swanson in December 2006. Swanson previously served as Chair of the Consumer Advisory Council to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Minnesota’s predatory lending law informs reform efforts in New York and other states and serves as a model for legislation currently under consideration by the U.S. Congress. Featuring Start: 19:30

The environmental and public health nightmare that began in New York City on 9/11 was unprecedented in its nature. The spread of toxic dust has resulted in hundreds of cases of firemen, rescue workers, police, and residents suffering from significant respiratory symptoms.

After World War I, the most extensive chemical attacks occurred during the eight years of the Iran-Iraq war, in direct violation of The Geneva Protocol 1925. The employment of chemical weapons by Iraq resulted in more than 100,000 Iranian military and civilian casualties. Both organophosphates (nerve agent) and blistering (mustard gas) were frequently employed, many in forms never before seen with, therefore, no precedence in their effects and treatment. Throughout the conflict, and particularly in its final stages from 1986-88, the Iraqis employed a diverse spectrum of battlefield toxins. They also targeted civilians in the border towns and villages along the front line. This is a rarely reported subject, even in Iran , and illuminates not only how the legacies of this terrible war continue to shape Iran , but also reminds us of the awful ongoing cost of war. It serves also to highlight Iran ’s attitude towards the international community with regards to its nuclear program. | ||

Thirty-One Years... This year's program will mark the 31st anniversary of the September 21, 1976 car bombing that killed Chilean diplomat Orlando Letelier and American Ronni Karpen Moffitt. Until 9/11, it was the most infamous act of international terrorism ever to take place in our nation's capital. Letelier and Moffitt were colleagues at the Institute for Policy Studies, where Letelier had become one of the most outspoken critics of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. Moffitt was a 25-year-old fundraiser who ran a "Music Carryout" that made musical instruments accessible to all. A massive FBI investigation traced the crime to the highest levels of Pinochet's regime. The Institute for Policy Studies has continued to host the annual human rights award in the names of Letelier and Moffitt to honor these fallen colleagues while celebrating new heroes of the human rights movement from the United States and elsewhere in the Americas. 5:30pm • Reception and light fare | ||

Citizens for Global Solutions Minnesota Presents: THIRD THURSDAY GLOBAL ISSUES FORUM: TO IMPEACH OR NOT TO IMPEACH? Article II, Section 4 of the federal Constitution states that civil officers of the US may be impeached for commission of "Treason, Bribery or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors." Determining whether sufficient grounds exist for impeachment is the prerogative of the House of Representatives, while the actual trial subsequent to impeachment is entrusted to the Senate. Relevant questions relate to whether the alleged criminal actions were knowingly and deliberately committed and the political judgment as to whether impeachment - or the failure to impeach - will serve the best interests of the nation. | ||

FRIDAY OCTOBER 19TH & every third Friday Over 60% of Americans want this war over-yesterday - that was clear last November. Yet here we are, seven months later and the political process is moving glacially, at best. It's got to stop! We've got to stop it! The concept is simple. On September 21 and on every subsequent Third Friday, millions of Americans will break with their daily routine to take some concrete step to demand an end to the war and the return home of the troops. This will be an escalating series of actions serving to maximize, multiply and reenergize existing activists and even more importantly give voice to the silent majority of people who want an end to our engagement in Iraq. The hallmark will be the wearing of black ribbons and armbands, in mourning for all of those who have died in this senseless adventure--Iraqis, Americans, coalition troops, and others. Start: 12:30
