Inland Empire General Strike!
Occupy Riverside, in cooperation with our friends and allies, is working to make May 1 a day of community empowerment in which individuals disengage from the institutions and practices that oppress us, and engage in activities that foster community and humanity.
We are starting with 5 days of "Spring training" to gear up for the big day!
Debts? Whose Debts? and Keith Olbermann (tags)
Truth is inwardness and must well up in everyone. Life is full of supernova explosions, a universe of possibilities where stars remain invisible until they find their partner star. "We keep the madness going that we call the economy when we do nothing against business as usual."
Footprints In The Sands Of Time (tags)
The largest ever police operation had descended into chaos and confusion in the autumn woods of Lower Saxony, defeated by the courage and determination of peaceful protestors who marched for miles through woods to find places to lie down on the tracks and to scoop out gravel to delay the progress of the "the train from hell."

Connecting with your Spirit (tags)
The spirit inside of you came from The Divine Light. If you are alive, you have light inside of you, and that light is beautiful

Hispanic Discrimination @ IVAR in Hollywood (tags)
Freinds and I singled out @ IVAR in hollywood.
And in the end we can look back on our lives and remember all the great shows we watched on television; the great virtual escape from alienation.
Why do Homo sapiens Drive Cars? (tags)
Homo sapiens can be trained to do many tricks and learn many different skills. However, because we developed a complex "Word" language (attaching named sounds and actions to named concepts), we can also become tricked by those Alphas (male and female) who use our "Word" language as a weapon.

Fear and loathing in Miami (tags)
It is fear, fear mixed with machismo that has raised these welts on my back. Those uniformed, legalized brutes in Miami were responding to months of indoctrination. Months of drills. Months of purposefully-instilled apprehension. "Anarchists are coming to destroy our city and our way of life!!" "Terrorists will be hiding in the peaceful rallies waiting for an opportunity to wreak havoc on the world!!" "They resent our democracy!!"
Environmental racism and petroleum (tags)
Environmental racism is injustice against people of color from polluting industries. The smog from oil refineries and petroleum combustion after GM/Ford paved over LA's trolley trax causes more traffic, more smog, more asthma.
Ridiculous Liberal Posturing re Israel's Syria Incursion (tags)
Blowing up innocent children in Haifa is accepted as pretty much normal business in the Middle East. But taking out the supposedly empty infrastructure of a killers' training base on Syrian soil is terrible.
Brainstorming for Guantanamo, Bush Visits Auschwitz (tags)
While Bush prepares his own death camp in Guantanamo Bay, he visits the Auschwitz and Birkenau death camps to see how it's done. Flashback: how did Hitler sell the death camps to the German people? He blamed terrorism and evil. More Presidential irony in a Constitution-free U.S.
Talkin' 'Bout My Generation (tags)
After 9/11, I also dared to hope, as did Tim Robbins, that some great good might come from the horrors of that day. I imagined that our leaders finally might begin to listen rather than pontificate; that my generation might finally be roused from its apathetic, avaricious condition and remember that it is more blessed to give than to receive. "And then came the speech."
Impact of Protests on U.S. Policy (tags)
With the U.S. in Baghdad, protests against the war are affecting more than just the U.S. campaign against Iraq.
Police Oppression at Anti-War Protest (tags)
Police clearly make is known that Black Bloc is not welcomed in Los Angeles.
Ways they keep us down and miserable - so we won't fly. THey are afraid we may go beyond their little dreams.
Solutions for radical's radicals--those with the guts to dig deep (tags)
"...Any politics we pick up and follow, they are...alien politics...[and] do not reflect the reality of who we are, but our culture and art does. ...if we are going to use [politics] then let's recognize that's what we are doing. It's a tool. It's not an identity..."--John Trudell

Terrorist Power Always Ignores Its People, Yet... --with art! (tags)
According to Noam Chomsky and others, the USA is the leading terrorist state in the world. Since *Newspeak* is the Name of the Game, "our" government will always try to fool us with hype, and failing that, will *ram through* its policies anyway. One way we can remain vigilant is through a *resistance of consciousness*.

As devoutly Normal 'Reality' presses more upon our psyches, many will crack… (tags)
The trick is to influence a critical mass to crack excellently. Herein is a few short anecdotes meant to inspire the conscious-leaning towards ways in which we can utilize our strengths (as veritable David vs. Goliaths) towards ju-jitsu with the dominant mindset.
Police State in Santa Ana!! (tags)
Hundreds of cops in full riot gear in Santa Ana, ready to beat and arrest about ten or so supporters of Matthew Lamont!
