Quote of the Day
Obama ain't trying to save no new nation, he's trying to get us back on the plantation: corporate power, government repression of workers and the poor, mass imprisonment of POC, prosecution of unjust wars, white nationalism, the rise of central authority, and impoverishment and homelessness of millions. is that change that we can believe in, or is that more to the same?

August 18
1893 -- The day after a riot of the unemployed, Emma Goldman addresses a public meeting, in NY city urging those in need to take bread if they are hungry. Tomorrow evening she helps lead a procession of several hundred anarchists to Union Square, where, among many other speakers, she addresses a crowd of the unemployed.

A World Without Ice Caps
When the polar ice caps melt, sea level will rise. That’s happened earlier in the history of the world, and it appears it will happen again. In this edition of Radio Curious, the first of a two part series on global warming and sea level rise, we visit with Peter D. Ward, a paleontologist and professor of biology and earth and space sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle. He is the author of “The Flooded Earth: Our Future in a World Without Ice Caps,” in which he describes expected condition in 2050, 2300 and 2500.

J18 - June 18, 1999 - Global Protest Against Capitalism
Original Call for June 18 | What's Next? | Events in DC | News coverage | Web links
This page is dedicated to Rob Los Ricos, who spent 7 years in prison years for throwing a rock at a cop during the Eugene, Oregon part of these protests.
On June 18, 1999, hundreds of thousands of activists around the world collectively said no to the madness known as global capitalism. Our actions caught the global masters off guard, so next time they might be better prepared. This page serves to document what happened and to agitate folks to get involved with future events.
