    Anarchist convention coming to Lawrence
    posted by Drew on Tuesday May 28 2002 @ 03:08PM PDT
    Anarchist Movement, Groups and Organizations LAWRENCE, Kan. - . Rules. You can't get away from them - not even at an anarchists' convention. But the seeming contradiction aside, say organizers of the upcoming North American Anarchist Gathering 2002, rules are necessary to counter perceptions of anarchists as violent and lawless. "We've been demonized by that image for 150 years," said Nicole Burton, 17, an organizer of the gathering, set for June 6-9. [...]

    PUCK NHL MISOGYNY!
    posted by Hockey Puck on Tuesday May 28 2002 @ 08:22AM PDT
    Sports For the past eight years, I have visited many a hockey locker room and arena, looking not for signs of masculine prowess but for pieces of a deeply disturbing puzzle (my research would become a book on sexual assault in Canada's national sport). In the summer of 1992, a former national wrestling champion asked me to investigate a story in Swift Current, Sask. Two hockey players raped a girl and they got away with it, he told me. "They raped her and then so did the justice system." [...]

    Rebel With a Cause

    Anti-Capitalist Movement

    Joseph Stiglitz is--as usual--running late. It is nearing 2:30 pm on a sunny afternoon in New York City and Stiglitz, an economist at Columbia University, is standing on the corner of 103rd Street and West End Avenue trying desperately to hail a cab. He needs to get across town to the Guggenheim Museum, where in five minutes he is scheduled to deliver an address on the state of the global economy in the aftermath of September 11. Stiglitz has not prepared a speech--half an hour earlier, as we were talking over lunch, he had completely forgotten the event was today--but that is the least of his worries. For Stiglitz, getting to appointments on time is a challenge; finding something provocative to say once he gets there is not. [...]

    Lethal Force in Kananaskis

    Anti-Capitalist Movement

    Canadian soldiers have the green light to use "lethal force" to protect world leaders at the G-8 summit, says a top-level military commander. "We are very serious . . . we have lethal weapons and we will use force if we think there is a serious threat," Brig.-Gen. Ivan Fenton said Thursday in an editorial board meeting with the Calgary Herald. Leave it to the frightened authorities to concoct more lies about activists. [...]
