Call for Radical Queers RESYST 2005-06-08 12:20 PM
This is a call for all radical queers in the Pittsburgh and surrounding areas for their participation in a radical queer contingent at this years Pride parade. So if you are a self-identified radical queer who feels that all oppressions are interconnected, that liberation is better than equality, and that assimilation is an attack on the vibrant culture that queers have cultivated despite the obstacles against us, then come and march with us. We will be celebrating our queerness, challenging queer assimilation, and partying in the streets. -Resyst (text/plain + 8 comments)

Massey Customer Campaign-Mirant Energy Coal Warrior 2005-06-07 5:21 PM
Mirant Energy(Formerly Southern Energy), now owns most of the generators PEPCO used to own. They have proven to be a dirty and aggressively "pro-coal" company. THEY WILL NOT DISCUSS THEIR SOURCE OF COAL-only that CSX and Conrail ship it! They act like they've got something to hide, and in coal there is but one skeleton in the closet dependant on the source of the coal: MTR MINING!. As a result, it is reasonable to suspect that they have made a number of purchases from Massey Energy-the company responsible for some of the worst MTR mining abuses! (text/plain)

May Day Versus Loyalty Day Mary La Rosa 2005-06-07 3:49 PM
May Day versus McCarthy era like "Loyalty Day" opened a UN Conference against Nuclear Weapons that seemed doomed by ambiguities and lack of reportage from its very start?¦ including vague US intentions towards peace contrasted by recent trends towards a nuclearised weapons program that supports pre emptive strikes. Meanwhile, Israel demanding Iran halt its nuclear weapons production is still vague about its possession of nuclear weapons and adds to its crimes against humanity in the Occupied Territories by dumping nuclear production waste on someone else's homeland (text/plain)

Unfortunately, the mindset and the mass media fall heavily under the spell of the wolves that prey upon the innocent. Roy the Wolf terrorized Cape Bretoners in the 1920's and now Paul the Wolf is doing the same thing on a much larger scale. (text/plain)

Why Such Drastic Changes Sought by Neo-cons? D. Burbeck 2005-05-25 7:50 PM
Of course it is the inevitable, looming oil crisis that awaits the US (because of her thirst for oil) that has given this Administration the justification to invade Iraq on the "pack of lies" (1. Honorable George Galloway) that came out of this White House. That, although not justified in many people's minds, is pretty much understood by the rank and file. (text/plain)
