Vanunu Freedom Ride in Sheffield on Saturday April 14th 2007

psc | 11-04-2007 15:05 | Palestine | Sheffield

Mordechai Vanunu
For telling the world that Israel had nuclear weapons, Mordechai Vanunu spent 18 years in prison, 11 of these in complete solitary confinement. Although released in 2004, he remains subject to stringent restrictions and is unable to leave East Jerusalem or communicate with journalists or foreigners.

The ride demands complete freedom for Vanunu, for his vision of a nuclear free Middle East to be fulfilled and for an end to nuclear weapons world wide. The Freedom ride also supports, as Vanunu does, freedom and justice for the Palestininian people.

 http://www.vanunufreedomride.org.uk/

Boycott days of action: We will be having a monthly event to promote the Boycott Israeli Goods campaign and opposition to the occupation. Next Boycott day, outside the Sheffield Town Hall: Saturday April 14th; 3.30 til 5pm To coincide with the Vanunu ride arrival between 4.30 and 5pm. Please come along and join our action and leafletting.

Empire as a Way of Life, Part 5

Chris | 11-04-2007 12:41 | 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 U.S. 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 fifth of these seminars and the text upon which it was based. The first 7 of these seminars have taken place and the intention is to have the whole series published on this site; the last 3 will take place between now and June.

This seminar, recorded on 16th January 2007 by the L.A. Sound Posse, runs for 38 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 This recording was originally made available on the A-Infos Radio Project site.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.
