Last Leeds Restaurant Selling Foie Gras

Ducks Against Foie Gras (DAFG) | 17-05-2007 23:41 | Animal Liberation | Sheffield

Duck Vomits In Tiny Cage from Force Feeding
Anthony's is the last restaurant in Leeds City-Centre selling foie gras, a 'delicacy' made from the force feeding of ducks and geese until their livers swell ten times the natural size. Foie gras is that cruel it is illegal to farm animals for its production in the UK, but it is still imported. Imagine the impact it would make on the catering industry if the UK's fastest growing city did not have a single place serving this disgusting and cruel dish. Please politely contact Anthony's Restaurant and help make foie gras history:

Empire as a Way of Life, Part 7

Chris | 15-05-2007 10:11 | Analysis | History | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Audio

The current imperial slaughter in the Middle East, justified by the "Global War on Terror", that has resulted in at least 600,000 deaths in Iraq, is nothing new — the U.S. Empire has a long and sordid history of genocidal mass murder.

The history of the US imperialism and Empire is the subject of a series of ten monthly seminars from Dr John Marciano, "Empire as a Way of Life". Attached is a recording of the third of these seminars and the text upon which it was based. The first 8 of these seminars have taken place and the intention is to have the whole series published on this site; the last 2 will take place between now and June.

This seminar, recorded on 20th March 2007 by the L.A. Sound Posse, runs for 44 minutes and includes the discussion following. It has been made available under a Creative Commons license. If this recording is broadcast please let the L.A. Sound Posse know. This recording was originally made available on the A-Infos Radio Project site.

The following text has been reproduced here with the kind permission of Dr John Marciano and he can be contacted at johnmarciano@mac.com. He introduced this series of seminars in the following way:

A fundamental purpose of our meetings is to understand the systemic nature of the U.S. Empire and the economic and military imperialism that is its lifeblood. The historian William Appleman Williams argues that empire became "a way of life" in the U.S., a "combination of patterns of thought and action that, as it becomes habitual and institutionalized, defines the thrust and character of a culture and society." This "way of life" has convinced many U.S. "Americans" they have a right or "manifest destiny" to impose their political and economic policies upon others.

Dr John Marciano is Professor Emeritus, State University of New York at Cortland, where he taught courses on social and historical foundations of education and class, gender and race.
