Coalition against War and Injustice — Baton Rouge
Listening: Everclear, Slow Motion Day Dream
This Everclear album rocks. I love Everclear.
From the CAWI List, which posted an article by Howard Zinn:
In the cartoon “The Boondocks,” which reaches twenty million readers every day, the cartoonist Aaron McGruder has his character, a black youngster named Huey Freedman, say the following: “In this time of war against Osama bin Laden and the oppressive Taliban regime, we are thankful that OUR leader isn’t the spoiled son of a powerful politician from a wealthy oil family who is supported by religious fundamentalists, operates through clandestine organizations, has no respect for the democratic electoral process, bombs innocents, and uses war to deny people their civil liberties. Amen.”
Some CAWI people are protesting by holding a vigil on the parade grounds at LSU but they’ve already been kicked off by the LSU police.
