Dorothy Marder Women's Strike for Peace https://www.swarthmore.edu/library/peace/Exhibits/Dorothy%20Marder/MarderActivism_files/MarderActivism.html Dorothy Marder’s photography during the period of the early 1960s to mid 1970s documented the “real” anti-war movement, particularly in New York City. Marder believed that the large news corporations covered only national demonstrations, distorted the reality of the anti-war movement, and neglected the small or local protests

August 6th is a good day to meet Father George Zebelka. He's a chaplain who blessed atomic bombs.

The Reluctant Prophet, a one hour British documentary on the life of Rev George Zabelka
Today in Labor History July 27, 1918: Miner and union organizer Ginger Goodwin was shot by a hired private cop outside Cumberland, British Columbia sparking Canada's first General Strike. He was a labor activist and a member of the Socialist Party of Canada. Additionally, he was an antiwar activist who said that workers of one country should not be employed to kill workers of another country because of capitalist conflict. “War is simply part of the process of Capitalism,” he said. “Big financial interests will reap the victory, no matter how the war ends.” However, in spite of his protests, he was still drafted to fight in the First World War. In order to avoid conscription, he fled into the mountains, where he was murdered by a cop in 1918. Canada’s first General Strike began in response.

The Ballad Of Ginger Goodwin
Ginger Goodwin is a name you don't often hear or see.
They don't say a word about him in our country's history.
He was a labour leader and he wouldn't go to war.
"While the army breaks our strikes at home, its strikers I'll fight for."
In Trail back in the summer of 1917.
Ginger fought against conscription even though he was class D.
But when he led a miners' strike to spread the eight hour day
Conscription checked him out again and found he was class A.
Ginger hid from cops and soldiers in the hills near Cumberland.
Miners brought him food and sheltered him, they knew he was their friend.
So the bosses hired special cops when their power was at stake.
Dan Campbell murdered Goodwin at the head of Comox Lake.
The whole damn town of Cumberland turned out for the funeral hike.
Vancouver's workers shut her down for a one day general strike.
Soldiers back from foreign wars then attacked the labour hall.
Both the bosses and the workers knew who caused the Czar's downfall.
You can still see Ginger's grave along the road to Cumberland.
He didn't win no medals and no one understands.
Don't tell me that a hero has to die in foreign lands.
We lost heroes here in labour's wars and they all had dirty hands.

Call for support❤️🔥
Asker Municipality has now applied to tear down the house, the fire department is assessing fire safety. We see this as clear preparations for a possible eviction.
That's why we need you now:
- Have strategic debates with us about whether evictions are a meaningful strategy.
- Make plans for how to keep this struggle alive even after possible destructions.
