Two-Thousand One

"You're either with us or you're with
the terrorists," George W Bush warned foreign
counrries last wet:k. And while he may not
have meant it this way, some worry that his
message was also a warning to U.S. citizens:
comply with our action or look un-American.
Choose: us or them. It's a black and white
approach to a complicated problem that can't
be resolved simply. Simple treatment will
drive people away from real discussion and
ITom each other.
This is not a time for divisiveness.
This is a time for deep and thoughtful discussion, and that requi res people seeing beyond
the polar opposites of the issue. It requires
us to actively work ro make all points of
view welcome in discussions. lr requires us
to include people with whom we disagree to
join convers:uions. It requi,'es Chat we speak
ro everyone civi lly and respectfully. If we
can do that, We can avoid being reactionary.
People's thoughts are 100 complex ro fir into
such polarized categories as "with us or againsr
us." Forcing thoughts and actions il1to sum
categories usurps the democratic process of
compromise.

We must be leaders both in speaking
our minds and in leading civil discussions. \Ve
must seek out all the shades of gray berween
'for and against: so that we can best cope with,
and respond ro, the attacks on New York,
Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
Stand up and say what you think.
Use the pages of the Cooper Poinr Jourr.al.
Remember that only through real examination
of ideas can we cope and democratically deal
with Out country's situation.

The undersigned ha~ Stipulations about the
editorUl:
K4tz Stew4rt: "'This is a good message, but
I think we are p;g.on.lwling President ~s
opinion. The editorial is a bit biased."
Turtf.t"1 agreewith the 'lets cx>llcai~ly figure
this OUt' rhetOrk but 1 think that believing
Bush might be suggesting or creating a 'with
us or against us' roentility as it rdates to
citizens rather than govunments is jUOlping to
a condusion that is hypersensiti~, =.ctionary
and emocionally charged. My impression of
the above statement is that we are looking for
cx>oler heads and logic rather than eqlotion."
NkhoLu SUIO;ulowski: "1 agree that the
statement does not address other points of
~ew. :Il1d that ~ion is necessary. I also
think that some action is necessary (different
2Ction than is being taken), and sometimes too
mucll talking can inhibit action. I detinitdy
. think that it is a "with ps or against us"
mentality, one that could lead to a witch

Six hundred people turned up last Monday and marched on Capital Way to United Churches, wh6r~

about alternatives to war, American imperialism in the Middle East, and techniques for combating racism
in our country,

First Days Marred by World Events
by Corey Pein
The first day of college did not
go as planned.
Two weekends ago, Eve rgreen
students were slated to move into thei r
dorms. What usually takes all day - waiting
in lines, signing papers, meeting people _
went quickly and quietly this year.
No one stood in line at the check
in , because there weren't enough people
there to make lines. The rows of inform arion
tables in Red Square went mostly unvisited.
There were supposed ro be fi fteen student
guides to show people around. Only seven
m ade it for the beginning of orientation
week.
Only half of rhe normal amount
of people checked into Housing on the
first day. At least eighry students contacted
the school to say they wouldn't make it
on time. They were stuck wherever they
happened to be before the World Trade
towers went down.
More students arrived over th e
weekend, and the school's timetable righted
itself like one of rhose clown punching
bags. Payi ng Greener families filled the
President's brunch , and by Monday the 17'"students had swarmed over the activities
fair as usual. The Housing and Regisrration

offices report that th'e normal numbe r of
students have shown up.
But Evergreen's myrhical bubble
couldn 't keep out the din of the world.
Everywhere on ca mpus, people were ralking
of war. And you can't miss seeing students
sporting " NO WAR" shirts.
The Bubble Popped
Evergreen responded immediately,
a nd relatively calmly, to the Se ptember
) 1 arracks on the East Coast. For several
days after the a ttacks , staff placed TVs
at seve ral Spots around campus so people
could monitor the news.
Some students particip a ted in
peace marches off-campus. Professors of
foreign relations and Middle East srudies
held debriefings for other faculty at the
Tacoma campus. A "teach-in" held al the
Longhouse drew about 250 srudents last
Friday. The campus wires have been flooded
by E-mailed npinions ranging from original
research articles to wartime gossip.
The administration gave students
extra time to show up and pay their tuition.
In addition, the school won't drop students
who don't make it to the first week of
class.
Stanley Bernstein, Evergreen's

spokesperson, said that the administration is
nor planning an official response to the war.
Rather, they are stepping back and letting
people respond in th eir own way. "If there
didn't seem to be venues, we would hostwe would give people an opport unity" to
express their opi nions, Bernstein said.
The reaction at Eve rgreen ro rhe
gove rnment's declararion of war appears
negative. People here who favor an armed
response ro rhe attacks arc not adve rtisi ng
it.
Paul Ga llegos is in charge of the
college's equal opportunity policies. He
describes his job as the prevention end of
racia l discriminarion. He was impressed by
Evergreen's reactio n to the attacks, but sti ll
says, ''I'm keeping my ear to the ground ."
He is worried abou t averting racism , not
just towards Middle Easlern students, but
againsl "students that may appear Middle
Eastern ." Gallegos is of Mexican descent,
bur says rhat lately he has been mistaken
for Persian.
The college's civil rights officer has
not received any complaints of racism or
religious harassment since the attack.
Art Costantino, vice president for
student affairs, thinks that Evergreen is a

The author (second from left) with other Greeners in Santo Tomas, Nicaragua

by Lindsay Parrish
As an Evergreen student traveling
to Santo Tomas, Nicaragua in the spring of
200 I; I saw and experienced firsthand the
drastic impoverishment of the country and
participated in internacional solidarity work
aimed at alleviating suffering by supporting
grassroots communiry development.
Through a local solidarity organization, the Thurston-Santo Tomas, Sister
County Association (TSTSCA), I went
to Nicaragua to work directly with the
Committee for Community Development
in Santo Tomas on their community farm
that produced food for a children's free
lunch program. The other projects of the
organization include a free !:light school,
srwing co-operative, public clinic, preschool,
carpentry workshop, teen recreation center,
and house-b~i1ding program for those who
cannot afford to construct a home. I began
to understand how the lack of government
assistance in areas such· as education,

agricultural development, and health care
creates a need for outside funding and
assistance to secure these fundamental
rights.
Throughout the 1980s, when the
revolutionary Sandinista government began
addressing these basic needs of the people
after their triumph in 1979, they were
continually attacked by the U.S.-funded
Contra-revolutionaries. These contras,
funded illegally, looked to overthrow the
Sandinistas to put into place a government
that would be easily moved by U.S. interests.
As is often the case, the difficulty of lighting
this war took precious resources away from
the people of Nicaragua, In 1990, the
Sandinista government could no longer
fight a war and eradicate poverty while
trying to rebuild the country. They lost
power to Violeta Chamorro, who proved
to be a puppet for the U.S, governmenr.
Her administration began to open the
country to World Bank and IMF loans,

which fac ilitate cap italist development and
place limits o n soc ial spending th.t further
hurt the poor.
In 1988, a Filipina-Chicana nurse
nam ed Dorothy Gra nad. left her home
in t he United States and took her hea lth
care skill s to Nicaragua to support the
Sandinistas in the fight for the right to
basic health care. When the Sand in istas
lost power, the new nco-liberal government
no longer shouldered the responsibility of
health care and social services. This left
them to be privatized, making these services
relatively in access ibl ~ to the majority of
impoverished people. Because of Granada's
commitment to health , especially women's
health, s he opened a ·wo men's clinic in
Mulukuku , scrving the rural farming
population in the central-Atlantic area. Its
projects include a farm, literacy classes,
presch oo ls, reforestation, family violence
prevention, carpentry, midwifery, and a
clinic irself that attends to 13,000 people
each year. Funded by NGO's and nonprofit organizations, Granada has worked
to bring good health care to the people of
Mulukuku for over 12 years in a desire 10
make up for the conservative government's
shortcomings.
I
In December oftast year, the clinic
was closed down by the current president
Arnold Aleman, and Granada's house was
surrounded by people armed with machine
guns in an effort to intimidate her and force
her deportation. They accused her of serving only-Sandinista clients and performing
abortions, which are illegal in Nicaragua
unless the mother's life is at stake. The
Nicaraguan Human Rights Commission
found thar none of the allegations were
true, The courrs found that she had 'been
denied a hearing and due process. Aleman
agreed to stop actively trying to deport
Granada, but her visa was not renewed in
early September, She was forced to leave
Nicaragua and stop her life-giving "(ork
that is so needed in a country that has been

impoverished by U.S. foreign policy, IMF
and World Bank policies, and a neo-libera l "'
government that does not meet the needs
of the people.
As I cont inued my solidari ry work
in Nicaragua, I wirnessed Granada's good
work under attack. It is hard to understand
her co mmitment to co mbating malaria,
tuberculosis, di arrh e., and malnutrition
as a crime. Aleman's adm ini stration is
threatened by agencies such as the clinic in
Mulukuku and the Co mmittee for Community Development in Santo Tomas and
acc uses them of being campaign organizations for the Sa ndini stas, because they
reduce the depe nd ency and trust in the
corrupt governmen t while simultaneously
building confidence around local developm ent.
Although G ranad a cannot continue her work for the moment in Nicaragua, she will work from the United States
where she is touring right now, telling her
story and generating support for the clinic.
We will have the wonderful opportunity
to meet Dorothy Granada this Friday the
28,h at United Churches, beginning at
7:00 p.m., where she will be talking about
the current situation in Nicaragua and
the need for inrernational solidarity. , In
this confusing time of upheaval, I have
recognized the importance of this work to
facilitate peace and jusrice across borders.
Please join us to further explore these topics.
For more information about the event
or about how you can get involved with
solidarity work through TSTSCA, please
call Lindsay at 570-0704.

I did it in only two quarters. The firsr
was a o ne quarter program, and the next
was the second quarter of a twO quarter
program. I w as not permitted to take
the first quarter of that program because
it was nearl y" id e nti cal to the previous
progra:n. This was bec a u se the sa me
profess"" were teaching both programs
and that was because there are only two
writers who teac h writing at Evergreen
(I am not including Pi'rt time/ studies,
which I know not hing about). I am now
registered in a t hird writing program,
t aug ht by one of the professors who
taught the first two, and I am having some
diffi culty becau se this program is also
very much like the first program I took.
My professor and I are hammering out an
agreement about what kind of extra work
I will be doing to earn my credits, and
I am getting se riously fed up. There
are no intermediate writing programs here,
and I understand it's a dry year for theater
students too . The math and science

Local Oly Politics
In the ", ids t of t he most cr itical
national times , wil e n we may be
grea tl y tested as a nation, loca lly,
we had a primarv electio n to make
ballot c hoi ces for the upcoming
general election. The primary
included many new cand idates
and several incumbents. It may
be one of the most important
loca l elections we see for
yea rs [0 come.
So why should the average
Evergreen student care?
When students think politics, rhey ge nerally think
of national iss ues, of th e
problems inherent in
e ith e r following or protesting ,ne policies of
th e U. S . government.
S ut t h t: politics of
the city of Olympia

The drama of

exa mple. TJ Johnson
is th e :ncumbent. He
finished out a part ia l

co ur.cilperso n stepped
down. So he has some '
expefle nce, a nd he
was on hand when the
vote came up to decide

whether to g ive a large s ubsidy to Miller
Brewing. As the newes t m e mber, he might
have ju st "gone along " and voted as the
majority, b ut he had s trong reservation s
a bout pa ying out C it y (LOTT) dollars
when it was not clear that Miller had any
right. The ntgo t iations had been secret ;
the public had not been educated nor
was its input desired; and ultimate ly, the
brewery would make no corresponding
commitment to protect brewery jobs. His
concerns brought him to vote against the
subsidy. He most certainly chose the road
less taken . His regard for the value of
Grass Lake as the last remaining local
salmon bearing stream led him to agree
with the Planning Commission, that the
area should only be lighdy developed .

Keep It Wild - Say Something about WashPIRG
In January 200 I , after hearing from 1.6 million citizens ca lling for the per m ane nr protection of so me of

such as P grizzly bears a nd salmon, a nd
these forests provide cle~n drinking water
for hundreds of com munities ac!"ss the

The Tongass National Forest in
Alaska, one of the most ~mportant wildern~ss areas in the country, is North America's

be your best friend or your
worst enemy, your doing
or your undoing, your
creation or your destruction. I call rhe scene
"the scene/' because it is
very separare from any
given scene. Tht scene
is an ideal. Within the
umbrella of the scene train
of thought are many subscenes rhat are usually
referred

as "scenes"

themselves. So remember,
we ha ve the scene and
then a parri c uIar scene.
While tilt sce ne is nodling
but good old-fashioned
narc issism and e liti s m ,

any given scene has its
positives ll1ld irs negatives.

Therefore, any porentiaI
scenestcr has

lW O

to decide.
One:

Is

the

"scene" scene what they

-

arc looking for '
Two: If so, which
scene will be th e best >ceae
for them'

Before these questions can be answered, our lonely
wanderer must first ger some IitCts. Mosr people, the first
time out, think to rhemselves, "Well, rhere's the hippies,
the skaters, the goths, rhe animal rights crew, rhe punks,
the indy hipsrers, and somerimes the Bible-thumpers."
On rhe surface, rhese are all valid scenes, and believe
me, rhere are many more where rhose come from. Bur
are they really what tht scene is all about? No. Tht scene
never belirtles itself wirh can rent. No true scene can be
based around a shared activity among a group of people.
The whole "people ro people" scene has gone the way
of the dinosau rs.
"Bur Nicholas," you say, "ir seems thar none of the
aforementioned scenes comply with one of the basic scene
ideals. It seems rhere isn't any scene rhat I can rhink of thar
could ever be part of this lofty ideal tilt scene so proudly
holds' How will I ever find the scene for me?!"
Well, ler me say rhi s. When looking for a scene
of you r own, think of these words: To be nart of a Scene is
to be seen. This is what a sce ne is all ab~ut. Homonyms
are not coincidences. They m(l11/ somerhing. H ence, the
scene's motto: SU1I" and be scene, I tell you, all I did was
type those beautiful wo rds, a nd sti ll a single rear sheds
from my eye. I rhink that yo u, my innocent reader, like
man)' orh ers, are roo caught up in what your pa renr's
scenes were abou t - peace, love, brother and sisterhood .
Remember: less than half of the cu rrent scenes avail able
even involve ever being with anorher ·person. Scene~ now
are more about a srate of mind . II stare of mind thar
savs, " Hey, look at me' Look at n,e, goddamni t! I am
here

[0

be seell.e!"

Today, ir's tough, too. Most seasoned scenesters
these days have honed rheir skills, and their state of mind
is already saying, "Look ar me, goddamnir! I am here to be
scene! I am the definirion of cool, and you are merely the
rest of the dictionary, including such words as uncool and
notsohip! If you are of my sexual preference, you musr lust
afrer me! If not, you musr fear me, like the god that I am!"
See? Now we are gerting down ro brass tacks. This is what
rhe scene is all abour. Survival of the hippest. A scene
requires only one thing: a srar. Guess whar, beauriful?
Thar's you! So get on out there and be scene!
Bur before you starr your glorious walk to
scenesrerhood, ler us review: Scene and be scene. Hey,
thar's basically it! So concise, yet so poignant. Oh, one
more very importanr thing. If and when you are asked, say
rhat you hate "the scene." Condemn it with afury. Then
say somerhing like, ''I'm m y own person . I don't subscribe
ro any caregory," or " Hey, man, I'm not catde and I don'r
need to be labeled." You migh r even try, "Whar? Sorry,
I didn'r hear yo u. I was rhinking abour nothing." Lasdy,
if anyone ever rtally cal ls you on your scenester lifestyle,
JUSt say rhis: "So metimes, whe n I rh ink about rhe world,
I jusr have ro close my eyes. It's alm ost like ir hurts ro
look." Works every time.

Recei v ing the scholar-

ship was an honor, but I found the th oughr 01 a ttending wh at I'd always seen as a school that was the total
op p osite of anyt h in g I'd ever want to be a p arr of
entire ly repulsive. In 111)' mind there was no worse
place ro be than Eve rgreen. I j ust knew Evergreen was
full of supe r en vironmen ralists wh o smoke marijuana
and voted for Ralph Nader in rh e last election.
With a h orrible prejudice, I decided to do
some look in g into Evergreen. The Evergreen Stare
Col leges websire was the first place I started reading
about the way the academic program is se r up and
al l the di fferent program opr ions. Reading rhrough
t he site, even then I found I was in trigued, enough
so that I contacted an Evergreen academ ic counse lo r
about t he different programs that were offered. The
,t1ullln'i that I comacred really enjoyed the ir rillle at
Evergreen, both academ ica ll y and socia ll y. Ha v;"g no
grades, integrated classes, and being encouraged ro do
independent s tud y really appealed ro me. Two of m y
friends had plans to attend Evergreen, so that gave
Ille one more reaso n to be happy abo ut attending.
I decided ro put all of m y energy into attending

It was w h en I starred relling people in my

coerce me away from the decisions I'd made. Even one
of my History instructors jo ined in with the hoard of
people divu lg ing incesru ous tales of the happenings
at Eve rgreen . I was mad e aware of al l sorrs of gossip
about how eve ryo ne in the school was either vege tarian
or vegan and if you weren't torally (on the verge of
social ist) liberal you were complerely discriminated
against. I heard so many o utrageous srories I rhink
they starred ro become parr of the fuel for my desire ro
attend, just to see how much was true.

On Saturday, when I moved into my dorm,
none of my rOOlnmates were rhere. and I was exces-

sively anx ious abou r meeting them. I was just s ure I'd
find o ur rhat they were all methamphetdmine addi cts
wirh th ousands of tattoos, piercings, dreadlocks, and
c rude man ners. I left the campus for the day and ca me
ba ck in the evening with more than an arm load of
pillows, blankers and a comforter. All the way from rhe
parking lor to my dorm I was dropping my rhings. I'd
have to stop and walk back and retrieve rhe aban don ed
item wirhour dropping so merhing else. Rescuing me
fro m my frustration, some girls stopped and helped
me ca rry some things to my room. One of rhem
even turned o ut to be my roommate. All four of my
roommates turned out ro be ve ry mu ch like myself,
just normal reenagers with what appear to be fairly
reaso nable manners.
My first days at Evergreen revealed rhar rhe
sre reotypes and prejudices of my homet own had come
from ignorance. The Evergreen Srare College is one of
the friendlies t environments ['ve eve r been in. Maybe
next rime I'm back home ['II wa lk down rh'e streer
carrying a load of bedding and see if anyone helps me
pick up what I drop.

I arrived o n rhi s srr a nge and "g re e n" planet o n
September 5, 2 001. Immediarely I knew rhat rhe
arm osphere, in ha bi ra n ts, an den vi ron men t were
unlike my homerown of Re no , Nevada. If any of you
know anything abour " The Bigges t Lirtle City in rhe
World, " then yo u probably know rhat the differences
berwee n there and here are obvious and vast.
First off, th e re a re few , if any, cas inos in this
region , where as in Re no rhe eco nomy thrives off rhe
greedy, money hoarding, s up erfic ial luxury palaces
of entertainment a nd quick fortune . As you can see,
I' m not muc h fo r Nevadan pride. Not on ly are thes e
cas ino s bri gh r, s hin y, and in your fac e, but rhey
all smell lik e urine, ciga rerres, alcohol, a nd e m pty
dusty pockets. Come for the fl as h, th e fl are, th e /
exc ir e ment, and then pis. it all away. !f you don't ·
believe me, rhen here's a sweer taste of irony. One
night ourside The Sands Casi n o, a man t ried to
se ll me his wal let aFte r he jus t spenr his la st few
dimes gambling.
If you are rhe rype of person rhat would like
to see a few changes go on a round this twisred a nd
crazy world , YO ll won't ger mu ch s upport in Reno.
Activism is at a minimum , es pecia lly at the local
Unive rs ity of Neva da , Re no. Sure, th ere are ways
to help out and make a differen ce, but jusr know
rhat yo u may be rh e o nly one at your me et ings,
your rallies, and your protes t s. If yo u don't like
acrivism and would lik e ro lea d a more material
an d supe rfi cial exisrence, rhen you can try jo ining
one of rhe dozen frate rniti es or so roriries rhat the
University h as to offer. Pl ease, rry nor ro puke; just
be happy rhar Everg ree n is an ac rivis ts paradise and
p eo ple a rnund here acrually give a shi!.
The words radica l a nd extr eme have a deeper
meaning to a lot of rh e students ar Evergreen, ro
rhe point where even rhose who wear deodorant
are put on the stand for allowing s u c h wretched
c hemi cals into their bodi es . Hey, I wanr it all to
change too, bur I think deodoranr is the least of
our worries.
Vegetarians, vegans, a nd animal lovers of
all ages, run for your lives, you a ren't welcome tn
Reno. Granred, rhere are rwo vegerarian resraurants
in rown , but rhey are underpopulated. The ourskirts
of. Reno are cove red wirh carrie ranchers , and rhere
is an annual celebrarion of meat ea ring at rhe
Rib Cook-off held every Labor Day weekend. At
Evergreen, the herbivores seem ro be rhe celebrared
species. All hail to the Vegan Dea rh Squad! (I'm nor
vegan, but the Vegan Dearh Squad kicks ass!)
The inhabirants of rhis bubble are peaceful ,
caring, altruisric, outgoing, and kind. In Reno, you'll
be luc'ky nor ro be spir on by the end of your s.ray.
Yes, of course I'm exaggerating, but I'm not used ro
being in an environmenr where jusr abour everyone
greers you wirh a smile. In Reno, you'll be lucky to
ger out of rown withour being spir on or having ro
deal wirh some sorr of hosrile siruarion. Peace!
I could go on and bore you with many or h er
differences, bur I will list .only one more . The
sense of communiry and ha rmony in this area is rhe
strongest I have eve r seen . If rhe new revolution
ever goes down , Evergreen will be a home base of
operarions. I have lefr planer Earrh, and I don't rh ink
I will ever want ro retu rn after I ha ve finished my
experience h e re.

Reactions to the Events of
September Eleventh
Dear friends,
We are all saddened by Tuesday's terrorist attacks,
the enormous loss oflife, perceived security and freedom. The
events touched theworld,andespeciallyllmericans, as no one
imagined such an attack so close to home. As we contemplate
rhis tragedy and rhe possible reacrion ro ir, rhe quesrion
arises - why would someone atrack the United Stares? There
are many possible answers. I will ptesenr. a few. Wharever
the causes, terrorism will nor be arresred if the fundamenral
causes remain in place. Violence answered with violence
will only beget grearer rerrorism than most living Americans
have ever known .
Two American values held dearest are freedom and
democracy. The media and rhe president have called this
an attack on rhe American way of life and va lues. Their
misrepresenration of the events is convenient in thar it summons
up our patriotism on the one hand, and racism on the orher,
as evidenced in reactions across the counrry from increased
militaty enlistment to vandalizing Mosques and murdering
Arabs. Our leaders are priming the war pump.
Few would care about our cherished values if we
kept them to ourselves, insread of forcing our wayan orhers.
Freedom and democracy are indeed worthy ideals rhat many
people around the world have fought and died for. Many more
fighrroday, and theirbarde isn't againsrjusrrheir own repressive
governments. It is also againsr the Unired Srates, which funds
dicratorships and paramilitary stares and provides financial
aid and weapons rhar suppress true revolutions in search of
freedom and democracy, justice and peace.
Theuurh is that ourgovernmenr and our rax dollars
are responsible for millions ofdearhs each year. Who mourns for
them? Where is you rgrieP. Maybe they aren'r white enough for
your emparhy. Last Monday rhousands were dying elsewhere
from · violence, AIDS, dysentery, malaria, starvarion, and
war. It conrinues rhis week, next week roo. The week before
last we bombed Iraq four times. Did you grieve? True, we
need ro heal our wounds, bur ask ynur.;elf why ynu weren't
horror srricken, melancholy, frighrened, disgusted or angered
before Tuesday.
The reason why our government pushes its will on
financially weak countries has norhing to do with spreading
freedom or democracy. In facr, these are just ideals, real
only in schoolchildren's textbooks and dreams. Our inrerest
in rhe affairs of .other narions lies iii our greed. Our bloodthirst for money drove the slave trade, ch ild labor, racism,
sexism, Narive American genocide, colonialism, and massive
environmenral destrucrion that broughr us ro where we are
roday. Neocolonialism and neoliberal development rheory
dominatetheworldascapitalcracksopenmarkets,deregulares
trade, and all with one clear goal in mind: maximizing profits.
This goal neglects the needs and desires of human beings.
We become commodiries ro be rraded or discarded, our labor
bought and sold, oompeting against each other for the scraps
they feed us, You and I are reduced ro human capital.
Don'r misunderstand me; th~ workers of rhe world
are not wholly responsible for the growing harred of America.
Corporarions, banks, and their agents - Washington, D.C.
- make rhe big decisions. Yes, they adjusr rhe rules ro
seemingly meet some of our demands (minimum wage
laws, environmental protecrion, ending child labor, union
representarion, consumer protection), but rhe system remains
fundamentally intac!. Profits have risen for mega-corporations
while wages have fiUlen.Today the average CEO ofthebiggesr
oorporations pockers 531 times (over 3 million) the earnings
ofrhe average worker (22,000). Businesses are socially and
environmentally irresponsible, while claiming that they musr
be accounrable to their shareholders. Who are the shareholders
in our financial markers? Overwhelmingly, rhey are our
world's rich. Not you or me, and certainly nor the citizens of
Afgh~isran, Colombia, Nigeria, Indonesia, Hairi , etc. We are
the shareholders in life. Bur life doesn't oounr on Wall Stree!.
Who is benefiting from capiralism? Not the worker. We are
brainwashed, exploired, alienared, marginalized, and ignored.

September Twenty Seventh
(C.,.,wtta IP.,nmo DltmamllU

Our freedom is fiUse. Our democracy is nor of the people, bur
of the dollar. Money vores.
Greedy ultra-narional corporations push for open
markers to expand their already enormous profits. Governmenr,
both U.S. and inrernational agencies (conrrolled by the U.S·l,
such as the World Bank and Inrernarional Monetary Fund, do
all they can, including waging wars, to ensure open market,
to sell their junk in. Srrucrural adjustment programs thar
provide "aid" to developing countries are killing people every
day. Millions die from dysentery and malnurririon. U.S.
backed policies require countries ro devalue currency; reduce or
eliminate wage laws, worker safety srandards, child labor laws,
and the righr to organize; e1iminare environmenral prorection
laws; privarize public resources such as water and electricity,
making them unaffotdabl e; exploir women and children;
reduce social spending on educarion and healrhcare; and
shift production (as in agriculture) to cheap export luxury
items instead of fulfilling domesric food requiremenrs. The
resulrs are the opposire of the stared goals. Instead of spurring
development, red uci ng poverty, and feeding rhe hungry,
neo liberal maldevelopment leads to dearh, malnutrition ,
starvarion, disease, higher costs of living, reduced democracy
and socio-econom ic jusrice, loss of civil rights, marginalization,
poverty, and environmenral devastation . In short, war. We
are at war with the poor.
This is what America was artacked for. Nor for our
ideals, but for our acrions. We are financial rerrorist'l as well as
milirary ones. These actions or inacrions are jusr as violent as
the World Trade Center and Penragon arracks. Millions die, we
ask "why us?" The targers of9-11 's terrorism were not innocent
people or symbols of American freedom and democracy. No,
the targers are rhe headquarters of world rrade, oppression and
injustice, and rhe most powerful milirary agent of capitalisr
imperialism. We have been oonquering sovereign nations and
peoples. for over 400 years, firsr by brute force and disease
(re rrorism), now by the invisible specu larive dollar. The
costs have been enormous. People have had enough. Have
you? They cannot rake any more. The United Stares is the
enemyofhun'ianity.
Yet all is nor lost. We have choices. Many may choose
war. Bush will rid evil from the world; he must be an incredible
human being, or is he jesus? Or maybe jusr a liar. How will he
prorecr us? Do you support rhe murder of innocent people,
children? That's what bombs do.
. jusrice musr be served. Escalaring rerrorism and
murder is not justice, but vengeance. If we truly believe in
our American values and ideals, then we should seek our the
perpetrarors, and proceed with a lawful jury trial. Oklahoma
City terrorisr Timothy McVeigh had his day in court. We didn't
bomb his hometown as rerribution. This would have led ro the
loss of many more innocent human beings. The residents of
Afghanistan, along with the demonized Arabs and Muslims,
are nor responsible for this rragedy. Why do we want to do to
them what was done ro us? Is ir because of their religion or race?
Or are we afraid of the seeds we have sown?
A war on rerrorism will nor srop violence. We must
oppose violence as a solution to violence. We must change
our foreign policy ro respect the wishes of other people and
cultures. We musr forgive rhe debt of rhe poorest countries.
Above all, we must place humans above profits.
We urge you ro oppose rhis war wirh all your
compassionate humanity, love, and dignity. Talk with your
fitmily, friends, and even srrangers about whar we are doing.
Talk abour the world you want to live in, and find ways ro
bring it about. Ler no more die.
Two of many quorarions by Gandhi seem very
relevant roday: "liberty and democracy become unholy when
their hands are dyed red with innocent blood." "Unless big
narions shed their desire of exploiration and rhe spirir of
violence of which war is the natural expression and the arom
bomb the inevitable consequence, there is no hope for peace
in the world."
Yours in peace,
Krysral and Michael Kyer

· Editor's Note· · ·

In these extraordinary times, it is very important to maintain a calm head and a civil manner, More importantly rhan rhese
is to question every piece of information rhat comes your way. Explore the motivations behind whar rhe news media are relling
you. Examine what rhe rhetoric of the two main political parries means to you. Question rhe extreme patriotism and flag-waving.
Start a discussion with someone abour your opinions of war and/or non-violent resistance. You shouldn't rely on anyone source for
rhe majoriry of your information. Everyone, whether ir is admitted or not, has some form of bias. Bias is nor inherenrly negarive
or positive - ir just exists, and you should be aware ofir in whatever media you use.
By all means, if you disagree with these statements, rhen question me. Discussion is the best way to learn. The events of
September 11 have affecred us all, and everyone has feelings and attitudes ahour whar rranspired and how we are reacting - please
voice those op inions and questions in the Cooper Point Journal.
Question why you rhink you are an ''American.''
I am not an American, President Bush is not an American . No one on the Evergreen campus is an American . At leasr,
not in the sense rhat mosr of us believe we are rhe only Americans.
The /lame and term America applies to two entire continents and encompasses two dozen countries and over 800 million
people, only a rhird of which live in rhe Unired States.
A Brazilian teachet, a doctor from Honduras, a postal worker from Suriname, and an environmentalist from Mexico
are as much Americans as the citizens of rhe U,S. It is only rhrough our self,importanr, overly nationalistic ideals rhat
rhe majoriry of rhe people in rhis country see rhemselves as rhe only "Americans," As part of rhe larger discourse on rhe
events of September 11 and everything that has happened subsequently, we should also examine our potentially damaging
and misl;!([ ideas of self and nation.
Even rhe concept of United States of Ammca is questionable, but I don'r rhink thar will change anytime soon,
and one needs ro choose one's barrles well. So, I am a cirizen ofthe United Srares, bur [ rebuke rhe term of "American,"

So what do you think of the war?

Counter Terrorism and Effix:tive Death Penalty Au. Ironically, it passed very swiftly because lWO flight 800
had just been downed and they hadn't determined yet that it was due to mechanical failure." One provision of
this aU was that poople could be detained and tried on secret <'vidence, another provided for profiling at airport>.
Since the passing of this au, all thiny poople who have been held under its provisions have been Arab or Muslim.
many held for vcars without knowledge of the natun: of their detention.

While the first lady encourages Americans to "be toler.lI1t", the overall rhetOric of this adminisrration

thac in Muslim countries."

Laird continued by challenging the US to listen to its 7 million Muslim inhabitants in their
condemnation of the "so-called Islamic religious acts", and to take on responsibility to understand what
Islam aUually is. He quoted the statement of the Council on American-Islamic Relations: "We condemn
in (he strongesr possible terms what are apparently vicious and cowardly acts of terrorism against

innocent civilians. We join with all Americans in calling for the swift apprehcll>ion and punishment of
the perpetrators. No cause could ever be assisted by such immoral acts."
In closing. Laird commented," ... it would be great if we could bring justice, but I don't think
we're real interested in doing that. We're calling our military operation .. Of'.Cration Infinite Justice(which
I think means perpetual retaliation). We assume the attributes of God... I'm offended. And [ think
you should be too. I know Muslims are.

The Management
of Cooper's Glen

By Whitney Kvasager
LaSt April, when Benjamin Speed
appli ed for a se nior thesis project, he
competed against 2 1 other ap pli ca nts
wi th his multi· media performance idea
about mental illness. He was granted one
of twelve spors, and gave hi s show the
working title "Walking Wounded. " Then
he braced himself for what was going to be
an emotionally grueling project.
In its first incarnation, "Walking
Woun ded" was going 10 center aro und
Speed's mother. It wasn'r going to be about
her - it was goin g to be about the kind of
things she had ro cope with growing up
and how those things shaped her. Speed's
morher had been sexually abused and beaten
up by her parents. her brother, and later by
Speed's dad. who is now her ex-husband.
She kept it to herself for years. When she
told Speed, he was "blinded by frustrated
rage and sadnes, at the same time."

Over the summer Speed inter·
viewed his mom. They wrote short stories
together. She kept a dream journal that
they talked about. Speed had hoped his
mom's short srories would provide th e
basis for vignettes that would make up the
bulk of "Walking Wounded." He found,
though, that "a lot of her writings were
highly religious. A lot of God and Jesus,"
and decided not to use them because his
project wasn't about faith.
It was through a conve rsation
Speed had with his brother that he found
the real focus of "Walking Wounded":
abortion, pregnancy, and miscarriage. The
two were talking about their mom, who
had an abortion when she was thirteen.
T he triage-inspired name sti ll applies,
Speed says, because it's still a play about
people whose stories aren't told . "They get
forgotten. Almost erased. They deserve to
be heard. They deserve to have their own
voice," Speed said. He Wants his play to

leave people with a better underscandi ng of
what women and their partners go through
in pregnancy and abortion.
Speed knows the kind of things he's
going to talk about in "Walking Wounded"
go into dangerous territory. He hopes
his play will open conversation to things
people do n't want ro talk about. He hopes
it will show people the importance of being
compassion ate. Above all , Speed wants to
show audiences somethi ng new. "Whether
I fall Rat on my face or not, I want to do

someth ing di ffe rent."
"Walkin g Wounded" (pe rhaps
under a new title, says Speed) will open week
10 of winter quarter, and will be performed
in [he Experimental Theater.
