thousands of students onto the streets to oppose the war against Iraq. And
in Britain on October 31, dozens of protests took place at universities
and colleges, including occupations at Cambridge University, Liverpool,
Manchester, Brighton, and Leeds. In Sheffield, 500 students occupied a

Goldsmith's, King's College, the London School of Economics, and many
others.

Enter your comments into the FCC public record!

Last month AIVF filed (along with a coalition of other organizations) for an extension for the public commentary period on the Biennial Regulatory Review of Ownership Rules for Broadcasters. The extension has been granted, and now you have the opportunity to file comments to curb media concentration.

Stop the Pentagon Plan to Invade our Privacy!

In the past few days, press reports have revealed that a little-known Defense Department office has begun developing a computer system that would provide officials with the ability to snoop into all aspects of our private lives without a search warrant or proof of criminal wrongdoing.

"The Art of Keeping Your Mouth Shut:"

An Invitation to the European Union Summit in Copenhagen, 12-14 December

It's hopelessly un-modern to disagree with the people in power these days. Even organisations that should be in opposition to the capitalistic world order, are busy convincing themselves, and in particular the state, that they do not pose any real treat to the established order. What they want is just to change a "few minor details" here and there. The reason for this sickening reformist way of thinking can be found in a deeply seated fear of being labelled "Radical", or even worse: Terrorists...

Why We Write: The Politics and History of Writing for Social Change
Conference March 28-29, 2003 Columbia University New York, NY 10027

As a result of the overwhelming success of last year's interdisciplinary conference on the History of Activism, History as Activism at Columbia University, the graduate students in the history department are currently organizing an interdisciplinary conference on the historical, theoretical, and political dimensions of writing. The objective of the conference is to provide a forum for writers, activists, novelists, screenwriters, poets, journalists, graduate students, and faculty--from all fields and across all time periods and geographic locations--to discuss "why they write."

The Bomb Project writes "The Bomb Project is a comprehensive on-line compendium of nuclear-related links, imagery and documentation. It is intended specifically as a resource for artists, and encourages those working in all media, from net.art, film and video, eco-intervention and site-specific installation to more traditional forms of agitprop, to use this site to search for raw material. The Bomb Project has gathered together links to nuclear image archives (still and moving), historical documents, current news, NGOs and activist organizations as well as government labs and arms treaties. It makes accessible the declassified files and graphic documentation produced by the nuclear industry itself, providing a context for comparative study, analysis and creativity.
