KEEP ON WALKING FORWARD
10,000 people gathered at Ft. Benning, Georgia to say no to war, and no to the US training camp for terrorism, the US Army’s School of the Americas, (Western Hemisphere Institute for the Security Cooperation) in Columbus, GA. Graduates of the school are trained that obedience is the only proper response to authority and that disobedience, civil or otherwise, is illegitimate – and must be 
repressed. The graduates of the SOA become the enforcers against those populations which oppose deregulation, privatization and oppression (Nov. 17-18, 2001)

MORE WORLD LESS BANK
Annually, the World Bank and the IMF meet on behalf of a corporate elite to induce or force summonsed representatives of governments to surrender the public commons in the name of capital's "freedom" to market access.  The con game (also called the cancer stage of capitalism), is criminal and deadly, and goes by the names of privatization, de-regulation, and militarization.  The collateral damage in this highly profitable US government-sanctioned corporate rape, pillage and murder is the world's population and the planet.  This short film is dedicated to those in opposition, and especially those presente in Washington, D.C., April 18-22 2002 -links-

WALL OF SHAME: QUEBEC CITY protests for fair trade, not free trade. Five months before Sept. 11, those dedicated to “free trade” (privatizing the commons) at the FTAA meeting hosted by Chretien, felt it necessary to protect itself with a 3-mile wall around Old Quebec and 6,000 police from 60,000 who gathered to protest corporate exploitation, failed programs, and criminal policies. Over 3000 delegates attended the 2nd Intl Peoples Summit (April, 2001 Quebec City), now held in Porto Allegre, Brazil.
