Howard Zinn, 85, is a Professor Emeritus of political science at Boston University. He was born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1922 to a poor immigrant family. He realized early in his youth that the promise of the "American Dream“, that will come true to all hard-working and diligent people, is just that – a promise and a dream. During World War II he joined US Air Force and served as a bombardier in the "European Theatre“. This proved to be a formative experience that only strengthened his convictions that there is no such thing as a just war. It also revealed, once again, the real face of the socio-economic order, where the suffering and sacrifice of the ordinary people is always used only to higher the profits of the privileged few.

Anarchism is the political belief that society should have no government, laws, police, or other authority, but should be a free association of all its members. William Godwin, an important anarchist philosopher in Britain during the late 18th century, believed that the “euthanasia of government” would be achieved through “individual moral reformation”.

AZ food prices up 19% in one year! The working class is being squeezed dry by rising food and fuel prices, while the capitalists laugh all the way to the bank. ADM and Cargill gorge on billions of dollars and the family farmers get the scraps that fall from the table.
"Leben cent cotton, forty cent meat;
How on earth kin a po' man eat?
Gots to keep dancin' to the rich man's beat
Of leben cent cotton an' forty cent meat."
(popular depression era folk song)

Eric McDavid's Sentencing Moved
Bay Area Indymedia
by Sacramento Prisoner Support
Sunday Feb 24th, 2008 10:10 PM
Hello everyone,
This is just a quick note to let you know that Eric's sentencing has been moved once again. Sentencing is now set for March 6. The new trial motion is still on calendar for February 28th at 9 am.
Eric would also like everyone to know that he is receiving your letters! He reads them all and is so thankful to get them. Unfortunately, while he would love to respond to everyone in a more timely fashion, that's just not possible for him right now. Please keep them coming and don't take it personally if you don't hear back from him. Your words matter to him, regardless of whether or not he is able to write back!
Yours,
SPS
