“Ten men in our country could buy the whole world

and ten million can't buy enough to eat.”


"This would be a great time in the world for

some man to come along that knew something." 


“The more you observe politics, the more you've got to admit

that each party is worse than the other.”


―-- Will Rogers



"IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL, THE NEWSPAPERS WILL HAVE YOU HATING THE PEOPLE WHO ARE BEING OPPRESSED, AND LOVING THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING THE OPPRESSING." - - - MALCOLM X



 "When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system's game.  The establishment will irritate you - pull your beard, flick your face to make you fight.  Because once they've got you violent, then they know how to handle you.  The only thing they don't know how to handle is non-violence and humor."  - John Lennon


People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of the people!


FIRST they ignore you...

THEN they laugh at you...

THEN they fight you...

THEN, YOU WIN!


--- M.K. Gandhi


The Dalai Lama when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man.  Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.  And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies never having really lived.


Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emporers.

But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.


_ Kahlil Gibran

According to various sources, fascism is a government that achieves power through political assassinations or rigged elections; initially poses as the champion of democracy even as it undermines democratic principles; is so nationalistic and excessively patriotic that disagreements with government policies are viewed as treason; controls the media so the people will support the government; coarsens the national dialogue with inflammatory rhetoric; relentlessly attacks the messengers of alternative points of view until they are silenced; uses secret police to spy on the population and eliminate opposition; undermines constitutional rights so the government will have absolute control over the people; stresses the superiority of one's country; promotes internal and external enemies as the sources of evil; sacrifices public interests to corporate interests; funnels a nation's wealth into the military and weapons-producing corporations; keeps the people in a permanently warlike state of mind; and eventually centers all power in a single party headed by a dictator with absolute power over the people.

There is a nationwide epidemic of police brutality in the United States. The victims are overwhelmingly African American, Latino and other people of color. STOLEN LIVES provides important and compelling exposures of the nationwide epidemic of police brutality and murder. People who've been killed, their families and loved ones, and communities under the gun speak through the pages and tell their stories. And they get a platform to speak out even more broadly.

 

Among people who don't deal with police brutality in their daily lives, this book shows that it's more than just a "few bad apples" or some "isolated incidents." Many such people will be moved to join the struggle against police brutality and stand with those under the gun when they see the shocking scope of this epidemic.

TAKE ACTION! Contact Montana's New Governor Steve Bullock.

Buffalo Field Campaign will be meeting today with members of Governor Bullock's staff to discuss Montana's treatment of America's last wild bison and the anti-bison bills currently before the state legislature. These bills would spell disaster for America's last wild buffalo and elk. BFC has created a web page to track these bills and enable you to take the necessary actions to prevent them from becoming law.

Please contact Governor Steve Bullock and tell him that the buffalo are important to you. Remind him that wild buffalo and elk are our national heritage, and urge him to veto these anti-buffalo bills and treat the buffalo with the honor and respect that they deserve.

Use this link to learn more and to help defeat this anti-buffalo legislation!

*****************
A New Way to Follow the Work of BFC: Podcasts

This week we launched the second episode in our new podcast series. BFC Coordinator Peter Bogusko discusses BFC's new legislative page and some of the anti-bison bills that have recently been introduced in the legislature. He also discusses what it's like to be a BFC volunteer in both the West Yellowstone and Gardiner camps.

We will be doing new podcasts throughout the winter. You can listen to individual episodes or subscribe to our feed and stay in the loop on matters affecting the buffalo.

Update from the Field: Watch BFC's New Video Public Service Announcements and TAKE ACTION!

Buffalo continue to fall to hunters in both the Gardiner and Hebgen basins with nearly 100 killed since November. The good news is that the state hunting season ends on Friday. Yesterday we got a glimpse of things to come as we documented four buffalo being hazed near Yellowstone's northern boundary by wranglers from the Montana Department of Fish Wildlife and Parks and the National Park Service. In coming weeks we'll be seeing a lot more of this as the agencies revert from letting hunters do their dirty work of keeping Montana free of buffalo to doing it themselves.

Buffalo Field Campaign released two new PSAs this week taking Yellowstone Park and Montana to task for their driving roles in the slaughter of America's last wild bison. We are asking all our supporters to take a minute to watch these two 30 second videos and contact the decision-makers listed after each. Please share these videos with family members, friends, and acquaintances and if you are on Facebook, please follow BFC's Facebook page [

4.   TAKE ACTION: Wolverines need your help!


Date:  Thu, 7 Feb 2013 09:46:20 -0600 [02/07/2013 07:46:20 AM PST]
From:  Jamie Rappaport Clark, Defenders of Wildlife <defenders@mail.defenders.org>


Subject:  TAKE ACTION: Wolverines need your help!

Dear pbnb reader,
 
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has finally recognized that wolverines in the Lower 48 face immense threats to their snowbound habitat from a
warming climate. It has proposed listing the species as threatened under the
Endangered Species Act. 

The USFWS has a year to decide whether to follow through with their proposal to list the wolverine as threatened. They are holding a public comment period from
February 4 to May 6, 2013. 

Please take a moment to submit a comment and help ensure that wolverines get the federal protection they deserve!

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=Sf9QnRYniplZUlqYcZe-rw

The largest land-dwelling members of the weasel family, these powerful carnivores survive by scavenging and hunting. Sadly, there are only about 300 wolverines left in the Lower 48 -- and fewer than 35 are believed to be breeding successfully. 

Tell the USFWS today that you strongly support federal protection for
wolverines!

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=mgpQ65zI5WBlnsEfoHX7tA

Here are some important points to mention when submitting your comment:

*  Wolverines need deep snow that lasts through spring for dens in which the females raise their young.

* But wolverines in the Lower 48 could lose two-thirds of their snow-covered habitat by the end of this century due to climate change, and recovery of endangered species will be severely curtailed.

*  Federal protection will help wolverines survive a warming world by removing threats such as trapping, giving them a better chance to expand into unoccupied habitat.

*  Federal protection will provide the resources and attention needed for research and monitoring to better understand threats and help sustain wolverines into the future. 

*  Wolverine reintroduction in high-alpine Colorado will help increase the chances of the species surviving in the Lower 48 in a warming future.

Defenders and our colleagues have been fighting for nearly two decades to federally protect wolverines in the Lower 48 states, where climate change threatens their future. 

Will the USFWS seal these animals' fate, or give them the helping hand they desperately need?

Please tell The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to follow through and grant federal protection for wolverines.

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=POEA2BNmRggdNvkMaS5COg

Thank you for speaking out for wildlife.

Sincerely,

Jamie Rappaport Clark
President

5.  TAKE ACTION: Help Stop a Delisting Catastrophe!


Date:  Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:22:00 -0600 [02/15/2013 08:22:00 AM PST]
From:  Jamie Rappaport Clark, Defenders of Wildlife <defenders@mail.defenders.org>


Subject:  TAKE ACTION: Help Stop a Delisting Catastrophe!

Dear pbnb reader,

If you care about wolves, we need you to take action immediately.

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=7HADtwAW1pHXEveyOfR_4A

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is deliberating the proposed removal of nearly all Endangered Species Act protection for gray wolves in the lower 48 states, with the possible exception of the Mexican gray wolf.  This delisting would be a conservation nightmare.

We're trying to get as many members of Congress possible to sign on to a Congressional letter urging the U.S. Fish and Wildlife to keep existing protection for gray wolves in the lower 48.  Please send an urgent message to your representative and ask them to sign!

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=faxJrTP-FWbdkHBQMAQIgA

Delisting would turn wolf management decisions over to the states, and we've already seen what can happen when federal protections for wolves are eliminated. Montana, Wyoming and Idaho - all states where wolves have been delisted - have become free-fire zones.

Over 1,000 wolves have died from hunting and trapping in the Northern Rockies since Congress and the Fish and Wildlife Service stripped gray wolves of their Endangered Species Act protection.

Tell your representative - the important work of wolf recovery is NOT FINISHED - don't allow the clock to be turned back on almost 40 years of wolf conservation.

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=xvZc9S7D82KkpwnjzRvqCQ

If the Fish and Wildlife Service follows through with a delisting decision, it could derail wolf recovery efforts in numerous areas around the country. In places like the Pacific Northwest, and in states that possess some of the nation's best wolf habitat, such as Colorado, Utah and California.

A delisting decision would represent yet another monumental setback for wolf recovery in the lower 48. It would wind the clock back on one of the nation's greatest endangered species success stories.

Wolves' lives are at stake and we need to pull out all the stops to ensure they remain protected under the Endangered Species Act. Please - urge your representative to sign on to a letter to the USFWS - and stop a delisting nightmare!

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=URt5wIxE9gi3kSgg0_kHCQ

It's up to you and me to ensure that our children's children will have the chance to cherish these magnificent creatures like we do today.

Thank you for speaking out for wildlife.

Sincerely,

Jamie Rappaport Clark
President
Defenders of Wildlife

6.   February at City Lights

City Lights Newsletter

February 2013

News from City Lights Publishers

February is Black History Month, and offers us a chance to talk about some recent City Lights publications by Bayard Rustin, Angela Davis and Tim Wise, writers and activists whose contributions to civil rights are unparalleled.

2013 is the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, an ideal time to read the letters of Bayard Rustin, collected in I Must Resist. Rustin was a master strategist and tireless activist who organized the 1963 March on Washington, deeply influencing Martin Luther King, Jr.'s stance of nonviolence. Despite these achievements, Rustin often remained in the background, largely because he was an openly gay man in a fiercely homophobic era. His eloquent, impassioned voice and ability to chart the path "from protest to politics" is needed now.

In The Meaning of Freedom, a collection of twelve previously unpublished speeches by Angela Davis, she explores the radical notion of freedom as a collective striving for real democracynot a thing granted by the state, law, proclamation, or policy, but a participatory social process, rooted in difficult dialogues, that demands new ways of thinking and being. This is her only book of speeches and her first full-length book since Are Prisons Obsolete? (2003).

Tim Wise's latest book Dear White America addresses white anxiety about the U.S.'s ethnically-diverse society. The Right's use of racialized nostalgia for a mythological past has helped them to successfully enlist fearful whites into their campaigns for reactionary social and economic policies. In no uncertain terms, Wise points a finger at whites' race-based self-delusion, explaining how such an agenda will only do harm to the nation's people, including, of course, themselves.

Hallucinations

Oliver Sacks

Recommended by: Anah

Here, with his usual elegance, curiosity, and compassion, Dr. Sacks weaves together stories of his patients and of his own mind-altering experiences to illuminate what hallucinations tell us about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every cultures folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all, a vital part of the human condition.

Letters to a Young Poet

Rainer Maria Rilke

Recommended by: Elaine Kahn

Drawn by some sympathetic note in his poems, young people often wrote to Rilke with their problems and hopes. From 1903 to 1908 Rilke wrote a series of remarkable responses to a young would-be poet, on poetry and on surviving as a sensitive observer in a harsh world. Accompanying the letters is a chronicle of Rilke's life showing what he was experiencing in his own relationship to life and work when he wrote these letters.

7.  TAKE ACTION: Give Florida Panthers More Room to Roam

Date:  Mon, 18 Feb 2013 07:00:25 -0600 [02/18/2013 05:00:25 AM PST]
From:  Elizabeth Fleming, Defenders of Wildlife <defenders@mail.defenders.org>


Subject:  TAKE ACTION: Give Florida Panthers More Room to Roam

Give Panthers a Brake



Dear pbnb reader,

Beautiful, elusive, powerful - and critically endangered.

The Florida panther is one of the most endangered mammals on earth and the future of this subspecies is in our hands.

Panthers need more room to roam - please tell the Secretary of Interior
and the Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to make panthers a priority!

http://action.defenders.org/site/R?i=yYviIbtJ3fYOTy6mgxHgLg

Florida panthers once prowled and flourished in America's southeastern woodlands and swamps, but today, fewer than 160 of these majestic cats remain in a tiny portion of their historic range. And that habitat is shrinking every day - gobbled up by highway construction, subdivisions and commercial development.

In recent months, vehicle collisions between panthers and humans have taken a deadly turn. Vehicles are a leading cause of panther mortality - a total of 19 panthers were killed on Florida highways in 2012. That's the highest recorded number of
panthers killed by cars in a single year.

We're in a race against time. As panther habitat becomes more and more fragmented, it will be increasingly difficult for these creatures to stay out of harm's way.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service must prioritize efforts to create and expand wildlife refuges by obtaining and allocating funding and working with landowners to protect habitat that secures the Florida panthers' future in the wild.

Please take action today! Help protect and recover Florida panthers.

Elizabeth Fleming

8.   Take Action - Medicare for All Act Reintroduced



Date:  Wed, 20 Feb 2013 15:39:14 -0500 [12:39:14 PM PST]
From:  Healthcare-NOW! <email@healthcare-now.org>


Reply-To:  email@healthcare-now.org
Subject:  Take Action - Medicare for All Act Reintroduced



Can't read this email? View it in your web browser [ http://www.healthcare-now.org/listimages/676.html ]. Healthcare-NOW! [ http://www.healthcare-now.org ]


Take Action

Can you help us increase the number of HR 676 cosponsors? [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=7367 ]

We hope that you will email and call your Representative to ask them to become a cosponsor of the bill that would bring universal healthcare to this country.

Take Action [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=7367 ]


Dear Single-Payer Supporter:

We're excited to announce that Rep John Conyers (D-Mich.) reintroduced HR 676 [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=7367 ], the Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Act, last week. The bill had 37 initial cosponsors and an additional three signed on soon after it was reintroduced.

Rep. Conyers has introduced HR 676 every Congress since 2003. He remains committed, despite the passage of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), to national, single-payer healthcare legislation.

"I am pleased to announce the reintroduction of H.R. 676, 'The Expanded And Improved Medicare For All Act,' in the 113th Congress. I have introduced the bill in each Congress since 2003 and I will continue to do so until the bill is passed," said Conyers.

"Many Americans are frustrated with high out-of-pocket costs, skyrocketing premiums, and many other serious problems that are part and parcel of a healthcare system dependent on private health insurance plans. H.R. 676 would reform this broken system."

Like Rep. Conyers, Healthcare-NOW! is committed to building the movement for national, single-payer healthcare and we sincerely hope that you will call and email your Representative [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=7367 ] to ask them to become a cosponsor of the bill.

HR 676 is still very important to our movement.

Obamacare doesn't address the unsustainability of our healthcare system. It won't keep insurance prices down, more than 30 million people will remain uninsured, and insurance companies will weasel their way out of regulations.

Right now Congress and the President are fighting over how much to slash Medicare and Medicaid benefits. Rather than cutting benefits, HR 676 is the solution we can point to in this fight.

So please take a moment to contact your House Representative.

Quickly email them here. [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=7367 ]

And call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard toll-free at (866) 220-0044, ask for your representative's office, and then ask them to sign as a co-sponsor.

Once you do so, please ask your friends and contacts to do so as well [ http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/6055/p/salsa/web/tellafriend/public/?tell_a_friend_KEY=9114 ].
