AMERICAN LEFT HISTORY

This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager

	Thursday, May 31st This week, across the country, members of Veterans For Peace were out in full force. Many of you held moving ceremonies for Memorial Day and brought attention to the overwhelming costs of war. The very next day, chapters in many states participated in Week 3 of the 40 Days of Action of the Poor People's Campaign. It was an inspriational week to see so many Veterans For Peace members stand up to challenge Militarism and the Culture of Violence in multiple states and willingness to put your bodies on the line. For this week's ENews, we made two short compilation videos to highlight the overwhelming amount of activism that happened this week. Together, with this spirit, we can End War.
