Boston Common-June 21, 2014: About 150 anti-war activists held a protest against any renewed US war against the Iraqi people. Sponsoring organizations included Mass. Peace Action, United For Justice With Peace, Veterans For Peace, ANSWER, IAC, Committee For Peace and Human Rights, Womens International League For Peace and Freedom, AFSC. Speakers related the 23 years of US war on Iraq, starting with the 1991 Gulf War under Bush, Sr., Clinton's economic sanctions and daily bombing of Iraq, Bush, Jr. attacking Iraq in 2003, and now Obama continuing the US wars.Many passersby stopped and listened. This Boston protest was part of many across the US. It was in addition to last Wednesday's protest in Harvard Square, Cambridge. I took some video and photos.

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
