The End of Illusion and the Beginning of the Future

Anonyme, Wednesday, January 27, 2010 - 12:58 ( | | | )

Elite democracy with its corruption of wealth distribution, language and community is not the last word. Humpty Dumpty is not the last word on enlightenment: "Words are what I say they mean." Access could replace excess. The future could be a human future of a social contract, not a war of wolves against each other.

Prequisities for Overcoming the Financial Crisis

Anonyme, Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - 09:45 ( | | )

"In analyzing financial crises, real causes should be differentiated from the side-effects. One of the essential causes for the current crisis is the discrepancy between the linear growth of the real economy and the exponential growth of financial management created by the derivative-economy."

The economy should be a part of life, not a steamroller crushing creativity and self-determination. Shriveling the financial sector is vital for a future of generalized security and environmental caring.

Several hundred joined a rally in London’s Hyde Park organised by One Law for All to show their opposition to Sharia and religious-based laws in Britain and elsewhere and to demand universal rights and secularism.

At the rally, over 20 speakers and performers exposed the discriminatory and brutal nature of religious laws.

The rally heard from people with direct experiences of Sharia law, including Iranian-born activist Sohaila Sharifi and Somali-born secularist Ismail Einashe.

Celebrate Buy Nothing Day ! But you can still win something big

Michael Lessard, Friday, November 27, 2009 - 15:33 ( | | | | | )

I tried capitalism and I didn't like it... Can I have my money back?


Join the Wildcat Strike on Shopping!

As is our annual tradition, we are closing our webstore Friday, November 27 for Buy Nothing Day. It's the same day as Black Friday, the official kick-off of the Christmas shopping season where consumer mobs flood stores and ransack shelves in a frenzied quest for low, low prices. Hopefully this year no workers will be trampled to death in the ensuing hysteria, and we encourage everyone to give this deranged day of consumerism gone wild a miss. But if you really can't deny yourself, we love this faux website at Do The Green Thing where you can "shop your sustainable heart out and Buy Nothing™."

1st WINNER DRAWN IN THE GIVE SOMETHING BIG CONTEST!

Congratulations to our first winner who will receive The Take DVD & Fair Trade chocolate bars! The contest remains open until December 14 when we give away the grand prize. So far, we've received some great dream BIG gift ideas, and we would love to see them all come true.

Check out our blog post for all the details and the 4 ways to enter.

Once our webstore re-opens on Saturday, we will be donating ALL the profits during the holiday season to Inter Pares' Give Something Big campaign supporting global peace and justice.

We're big fans of Inter Pares who were one of the first supporters of The Corporation. For the work they do overseas, they partner with existing on-the-ground organizations that are working to promote justice in their own communities. Their support strengthens the work of local groups and encourages them in the development and implementation of their own programs. It's a refreshing, bottom-up approach that sees them collaborating with activists in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and here in Canada.

Take a breather from the shopping madness and check out their alternative holiday giving campaign at: www.GiveSomethingBig.com

Have a FABULOUS Buy Nothing Day!

CHRISTMAS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STRESSFUL

Like Inter Pares' Give Something Big campaign where you make a donation and receive festive and customizable holiday cards. You can send animated, musical e-cards (and add your photo even), or go the traditional route with paper cards.

Venezuela: The error of being Lusbi Portillo

Anonyme, Tuesday, November 3, 2009 - 11:20 ( | | | | | )

* The latest demonstration of political criminalization of autonomous social movements by the Venezuelan government is exposed by Rafael Uzcategui, a member of the anarchist collective El Libertario.

As this text is written, Lusbi Portillo, professor at Zulia University (in Maracaibo) and environmental activist in solidarity with the indigenous movement is in hiding to protect his life and physical integrity. During the events of October 13 in the Sierra de Perijá two yukpas were killed and five more wounded in a conflict arising from the demarcation of indigenous land. The regional police announced that an arrest warrant against the professor for “drug possession” was imminent. This is not the first time the professor is criminalized for his active solidarity with the demands of the original peoples, but because the way the events are evolving – an investigation of the events has been decreed “national security” by the authorities – he decided to take preventive measures by going into hiding.
