The first "U.S. Out of Afghanistan!" anti-war demo in Tulsa

The first "U.S. Out of Afghanistan!" anti-war demo in Tulsa went very well, this Saturday, October 3rd 2009, at the corner of 41st & Yale. Of the 30% of so of the people in their cars responding to our message, I'd say 98% were in agreement with us. There was only 1 vociferous opponent to our point of view, who was in support of endless war for some reason unbeknown to us.



October 7th marks the end of the 8th year of the US occupation in Afghanistan, and the beginning of the 9th… Continue

our immediate community

as we get older our community becomes more clear. not only the importance of us as one, but the way we move and motivate. in difficult times we come together more readily, more sincerely, and more improvised. in prosperous times we come together more superficially, and many not at all. the times are over when race and religion separated us, but many hang on to those traditions. let us begin a conversation of community.
