Lush supports 'Just Do It' and their new film about environmental activism.
We're supporting an exciting new film about environmental activism - we hope you'll join us. Just Do It aim to raise £20000 in 20 days, starting 12th October. To make that a little easier, we're matching every pound donated during this time. If you'd like to help make it happen, you can donate to their cause by clicking on the link at www.lush.co.uk/articles/our_ethical_campaigns/just_do_it.html We at Lush are incredibly grateful that there are people out there - activists, campaigners and organisers, who swim against the tide of mainstream opinion to create the change that's needed to help others. jeIn Britain, we are lucky to have a healthy and strong democratic system which allows a certain amount of protest. It's not perfect, but it allows for freedom of speech and expression, for protest without the fear of persecution. We should celebrate, encourage and support those who stand up and fight for a just and better world; one which recognises and promotes the rights of people all over the world, the rights of animals, and the earth. That's why we help activists, with financial, practical and moral support. The Just Do It film celebrates activism, celebrates our history of protest and non-violent direct action, and seeks to show activists at work, without the stigmatisation sometimes found in mainstream media and politics. We hope people will support the film as part of their personal protest, their personal activism, and that in doing so we can continue our proud ...

Activists occupy aipac with message to congress: no war on iran

Activists Occupy AIPAC with message to Congress: No War On Iran
***Take Action: Tell Congress and Obama: No War On Iran! Sign the petition at www.occupyaipac.org*** An AIPAC Policy Conference panel titled "Stopping Iran" had some unexpected speakers: activists with Occupy AIPAC and CODEPINK who stood up and "mic checked" Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Israeli Ambassador Jeremy Issacharoff. At about 2pm on March 5, four activists called out AIPAC for pushing for American support for an Israeli attack on Iran. One activist was violently attacked by an AIPAC member who used his tie to strangle the peaceful protester. Later in the afternoon two activists unfurled a "Don't Bomb Iran" banner inside the AIPAC hall. Security promptly pushed them out of the hall, and also forcefully removed an AIPAC delegate who had nothing to do with the action, but was taken out for being a bystander. The full People's Microphone inside the panel said: "Mic check! Ros-Lehtinen is pushing war based on lies. We are the 99% Wars benefit the 1% Don't bomb Iran! Diplomacy not bombs. AIPAC supports endless war. We support peace. Occupy Wall Street not Iran. Occupy Wall Street not Palestine. No war on Iran." The Occupy AIPAC coalition is gathering to urge Obama to reject the Israeli administration's push for war on Iran and insist on respect for Palestinian rights. Timed to coincide with the annual AIPAC policy conference from March 3-6, Occupy AIPAC aims to draw attention to the dangerous role of AIPAC as a special interest lobby that maintains a ...

Israeli activist supports afrikaners fighting genocide! godbless!

Israeli Activist Supports Afrikaners Fighting Genocide! Godbless!
Russian-born Jewish Israeli activist Avigdor Eskin is known for his extreme political views -- the latest is supporting the claim of genocide by the Afrikaner community. On a visit to South Africa, Eskin has accused Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu of being a "fascist who first prepared the way for Afrikaner genocide with his flawed and one-sided Truth Commission and who is now fomenting anti-Jewish hatred with his calls for economic, cultural and academic boycotts of Israel". Eskin's meetings with several Afrikaner organizations has led him to conclude that the high rate of violent farm murders is indicative of a genocide in the country. Supportive of the idea of a 'Volkstaat' for the Afrikaner community, Eskin believes that the Israeli-Jews are in a similar situation to the Afrikaner community as "they have nowhere to flee". And oh how right he is!

Exclusive: OWS Activist Cecily McMillan Describes Seizure, Bodily Injuries in Arrest by NYPD
democracynow.org - Occupy Wall Street activist Cecily McMillan suffered a seizure when New York City police officers pulled her from the crowd and arrested her as hundreds attempted to re-occupy Zuccotti Park on Saturday, to mark sixth months since the launch of the movement. In her first television interview since her arrest, McMillan says she has decided to speak out because of an outpouring of public support. "I have received so many emails, Twitter messages and phone calls. People are just horrified about what happened to me." McMillan has a black eye and her body is covered in bruises, at least one in the shape of a handprint. She says she was not allowed to contact an attorney while she was taken to the hospital and transferred to a jail cell along with some of the 72 other detained protesters. Facing charges of police assault and obstructing governmental administration, she was released Monday after a judge denied a request that her bail be set at $20000. McMillan is northeast regional organizer for Young Democratic Socialists of America, and a graduate student at the New School for Social Research. We're also joined by Meghan Maurus, McMillan's attorney and mass defense coordinator at the New York City chapter of the National Lawyers Guild.

Activists confront condoleezza rice at stanford university

Activists Confront Condoleezza Rice at Stanford University
Hello, I am the woman in this YouTube, seen protesting Rice from the audience. That day there was a whole group of us together: World Can't Wait, Stanford Says No To War, Code Pink. I am with World Can't Wait. The war criminals want a safe return to legitimacy, only public protest and rejection disrupts that. All of us were demanding to speak the truth about Rice as a war criminal (and the torture program was only one facet of her crimes). It is heartening to read so many comments of support, and if you'd like to talk more, please write me at sf@worldcantwait.org or check out www.worldcantwait.org I also want to comment back about some of the comments: First: Rice should be protested because of her war crimes and crimes against humanity --NOT for being a woman, or African-American. To writers of comments using ugly, racist and/or woman hating names against Rice -- and also to everyone else reading them: I ask you to think: Isn't hatred against Black people and women exactly the type of "thinking" that actually supports, and feeds, the existing power system -- which creates the wars for empire, and imperialist war criminals, that we oppose? Second: World Can't Wait's mission is to build and strengthen mass political resistance and opposition by people living in the US to the crimes of our own government. In politically confronting war criminals, World Can't Wait believes in, and acts on, the power of doing this through speech, only. Speech -- yelled aloud in the streets ...

Tibet activist richard gere: wake up china!

Tibet Activist Richard Gere: Wake Up China!
Featuring activist and longtime supporter of the Tibet cause Richard Gere. He is the Founder of the Gere Foundation, an organization that supports humanitarian causes and funds a range of Tibet support groups including International Campaign for Tibet, Tibet Fund, Students for a Free Tibet, and other organizations. In April 2008, Gere spoke to thousands of Tibet supporters in San Francisco at the April 8, 2008 Candle Lights for Human Rights event. He described how in March 2008, a virtual "vortex" opened up when a group of monks demonstrated on the streets of Lhasa and spontaneously brought the world's attention to the Tibet cause. Since then, China has launched an unprecedented "crackdown" on the people of Tibet. There are presently more than 70000 armed Chinese soldiers deployed in Tibet. Thousands of monks and nuns are missing—and more than two hundred Tibetans have been killed. Listen to Gere imagine a future when China finally wakes up and welcomes the opportunity to begin talks with the Dalai Lama—and to preserve what little remains of an ancient spiritual culture nearing extinction because of China's unjust policies towards an oppressed people.

On March 4, 2012, 22 year old member of Young Jewish and Proud (the youth wing of Jewish Voice for Peace) Liza Behrendt stood up at the 2012 AIPAC Policy Conference in a breakout session called "The Struggle to Secure Israel on Campus" to call attention to the silencing of Palestinians— and young Jews who support them — on US campuses. This action was part of OCCUPY AIPAC. www.occupyaipac.org This effort to draw attention to the silencing of Palestinians and young Jewish activists is part of a weekend long series of activities to highlight the destructive practices of AIPAC. A separate group of Jewish activists from Jews Say No and Just Foreign Policy went inside the AIPAC conference and gave interviews to journalists, in which they stressed that AIPAC doesn't represent the majority of American Jews who oppose war with Iran and who want the US to oppose settlement expansion in the West Bank. Activists held daylong protests outside the AIPAC conference. Timed to coincide with the AIPAC policy conference, Occupy AIPAC (www.occupyaipac.org) is a coalition effort led by CODEPINK: Women for Peace and cosponsored by over 130 organizations, including Jewish Voice for Peace, Interfaith Peace Builders, Jews Say No, Just Foreign Policy, US Palestinian Community Network and the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation.

Former president jimmy carter supports call for new 9/11 investigation

Former President Jimmy Carter Supports Call For New 9/11 Investigation
Members of We Are Change Ohio got a chance to meet up with the former President Jimmy Carter while he was in Chicago on his latest book signing tour. We asked him if he would support the victim's family member's demand for a new investigation into 9/11. We took into consideration that Carter was under the advisement of Brzezinski who was a key contributor to the Taliban. However Carter has been critical of the Bush administration for years and stated that Bush exploited 9/11. So we figured there would be no harm in asking him. Some video was unable to get due to the aggressive secret service however we were successful in getting a positive response from the former president and recording the full audio.

Activists say fishing limit not enough to save bluefin tuna

Activists Say Fishing Limit Not Enough to Save Bluefin Tuna
I'm Alex Villarreal with the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from voaspecialenglish.com | http An international group has set the limit for the two thousand eleven catch of bluefin tuna in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. The limit is just under thirteen thousand metric tons. That is six hundred tons less than the two thousand ten quota, a reduction of four percent. Conservation groups criticized the move, saying the cut is not big enough to support the recovery of bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean.The International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas set the catch in November in Paris. Delegates to the commission represent the governments of forty-eight fishing nations. In two thousand six, the commission established a plan to stop overfishing. The goal is to rebuild bluefin populations in the eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean by twenty twenty-two. The European Commission had called for reducing the catch in two thousand eleven to six thousand tons to improve the chances for the huge and highly valuable fish. But Mediterranean members of the European Union rejected that proposal even before the ten-day meeting began. Still, EU Fisheries Commissioner Maria Damanaki said the meeting took "a step in the right direction for sustainable management" of bluefin tuna.The fishing industry wanted to keep the existing catch limit. Atlantic bluefin can grow three meters long and weigh as much as six hundred fifty kilograms. France, Italy and ...

Activist: progressives "ought to" back paul in gop primary to keep important issues at fore

Activist: Progressives
democracynow.org - As the South Carolina primary heats up and the top tier of candidates solidifies, Ron Paul's consistent message and diverse array of support has kept this former outlier in the race. We speak to South Carolina civil rights activist Kevin Alexander Gray, asking him what his thoughts are on the libertarian candidate and what his likely effect will be in South Carolina. RUSH TRANSCRIPT: AMY GOODMAN: Last question to Kevin Alexander Gray about a man we haven't talked about yet, Ron Paul, what he is appealing to, generally and in South Carolina, and how you feel about him? KEVIN ALEXANDER GRAY: Well, the libertarian vote in South Carolina isn't very large. And, of course, Ron Paul's television advertisements in South Carolina feature a black man. Now—and I know he's made several buys in the—on black radio. Romney has done direct mail to black voters in South Carolina. But, you know, if the progressive community—from my perspective, if they want to make sure that the antiwar message, anti-imperial message remains on the table, all the way to the Republican convention, and being that there's no Democratic primary, you know, I've been telling people, unless you're going to be a delegate to the convention or you're a party officer, then why not go into the Republicans' house and influence at least that very narrow part of the dialogue, the antiwar, anti-imperial, anti-National Defense Authorization bill, anti-PATRIOT Act? Those issues are important, and Ron Paul ...

Alex jones: "stay in your house"

Alex Jones:
Recent FBI raids against homes of antiwar activists in several states and stories about Feds trying to make internet spying easier should raise the question, where are our civil liberties? Feds raided activists in Minneapolis, Chicago, Michigan North Carolina looking for evidence relating to activities concerning the material support of terrorism. Alex Jones says that every citizen in America is at risk to be monitored by Homeland Security for being an antiwar activist or material support of terrorism.

Fbi don't like free speech (support the aeta 4)

FBI Don't Like Free Speech (Support the AETA 4)
Most news media mostly do the five things: 1) Rephrase press releases by corporations and government officials. 2) Add surface-level facts. 3) Assume sourcing from only corporate or government sources is necessary. 4) Assume that corporate or government sources are credible. 5) Sensationalism. This video aims to clear up these errors, mistakes, and oversights. This video also aims to send a message of our own against the legal and extralegal measures taken against animal rights and environmental activism. Resistance against injustice is fertile.

Cavalli fashion show disrupted by animal rights activists

Cavalli fashion show disrupted by animal rights activists
Five anti-fur protesters stormed Roberto Cavalli's flamboyant fashion show, unrolling posters on the catwalk saying 'Cavalli = cruelty' before they were dragged away by security staff. Cavalli's sports-themed show for his Just Cavalli label had opened with a live brass band dancing on a mock football pitch, followed by models in broad-shouldered cropped jackets and thigh-skimming dresses to a backdrop of electronic score boards. Amid the colourful defilee, it took a while for security to realise the animal rights activists were not part of the show. www.itnsource.com Reuters 15707/06
