"As nightfall does not come all at once," he wrote, "neither does
oppression. In both instances there is a twilight when everything
remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all

"What do we mean by the Revolution? The war? That was no part of
the revolution; it was only an effect and consequence of it. The
revolution was in the minds of the people, and this was effected from
1760 - 1775, in the course of fifteen years, before a drop of blood was
shed at Lexington." -John Adams, Letter to Thomas Jefferson, August 24, 1815

Take The Pledge
"I pledge that if any U.S. troops, contractors, or mercenaries
remain in Afghanistan on Thursday, October 6, 2011, as that occupation
goes into its 11th year, I will commit to being in Freedom Plaza in
Washington, D.C., with others on that day or the days immediately
following, for as long as I can, with the intention of making it our
Tahrir Square, Cairo, our Madison, Wisconsin, where we will
NONVIOLENTLY resist the corporate machine by occupying Freedom Plaza
until our resources are invested in human needs and environmental
protection instead of war and exploitation. We can do this together. We
will be the beginning." http://october2011.org/welcome
