Close The Camps!
San Francisco
July 2, 2019
What started as a passionate rally across from Senator Dianne Feinstein's office, grew quickly (and I sense unexpectedly) into a spontaneous blockade of Market Street at lunchtime with over 1000 people, disgusted by US cruelty at the border, calling to immediately CLOSE THE CAMPS!! Two hours later, after a march down the center of Market Street and another street blockade, the rally ended outside the office of Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. #closethecamps
Even though the walls are painted bright yellow with motivational sayings and program jargon, these rooms were actually some of the scariest rooms in the school. Children were locked in here for hours, days and even weeks at a time until they were compliant with the program rules. Much of what is written on the walls are part of the WWASP program jargon such as "step left." This jargon is learned through the program seminars which are direct rips of the old Lifestream EST-style seminars.
Most of Dorm 2 is a biohazard due to black mold, moisture, cracking foundations, burst pipes, and likely asbestos. Staff were required to work 12-48 hour shifts to watch the inmates. This was part of their sleeping quarters located at the end of the dorms
Activists of all ages gathered for an afternoon of art, music and politics at our third Democracy Cafe in Mill Valley. This month, we looked into solutions to end gun violence, through a range of activities designed to inspire us to action. We started the day by making signs for the ‘March for Our Lives’ rally. We then sang along with the Freedom Singers. Marin County Supervisor Kate Sears led a group discussion on gun reform. Young singer Emma Spike performed songs of hope, and music director Reed Fromer led a final sing-along with some classic tunes about social change.
This free public event took place on Sunday, March 18th from 2 to 5pm, at the O'Hanlon Center for the Arts in Mill Valley. We were delighted to see many young people come make their own signs against gun violence, then stay to sing and talk with us.
Thanks to all our friends and neighbors who came to join their voices, minds and hearts to energize each other and create a better world. Kudos to our co-hosts Marilyn Price, Jennifer Tomkins, Rebecca Brackman, Grace Severtson -- and everyone who helped us organize this uplifting community event.
Democracy Cafe is a series of free creative and civic events led by Fabrice Florin and a growing community of activists and artists in Marin. We think making art, playing music and talking with people of all ages and backgrounds can build mutual understanding and engage us to take meaningful political action together.
Join your neighbors to make political art and music -- and keep democracy alive!

Students, families, and supporters of March For Our Lives took to the streets of New York City on March 24, 2018; to demand that their lives and safety become a priority and that we end gun violence in our communities and schools today. Over a hundred thousand people participated on the March For Our Lives Rally in New York City, marching from Central Park West down to 6th avenue. Over 800 sibling marches were planned in every state across the country and on every continent. March For Our Lives is a student-led movement to end gun violence in our country.

Víctimas del Terrorismo.
Aquí le presentamos algunas de las más crudas imágenes de las víctimas de los terroristas.
Vea el sufrimiento de aquellos que con su sangre, permitieron que los argentinos hoy tengamos un país que vive en democracia y libertad.
Estas son las víctimas de "montoneros", del "erp", de los padres cuyos H.I.J.O.S. hoy nos reclaman por los "derechos humanos" dejando de lado la violencia y el odio irracional que ejercieron sobre la sociedad Argentina.
Los terroristas y sus deudos hoy reciben centenares de miles de dólares por haber sido "perseguidos políticos".
Las víctimas de ellos ni sus familias, comprenden ni el odio, ni las recompensas monetarias que los guerrilleros están recibiendo hoy en día.
Los violentos de ayer, hoy se regodean con el poder mediático y político. Se llenan los bolsillos de dinero proveniente del "capitalismo", que dicho sea de paso, les pagamos todos los argentinos con nuestros impuestos.
Las palabras sobran. Ahora les toca hablar a las victimas.

At Wentworth, by the Dan Ryan Expressway.
These commemorative street signs are an unfortunate and persistent legacy of the reign of terror of former 3rd Ward Alderman Dorothy Tillman.
With the city's current alleged money troubles (plenty of TIF money for DePaul University to build a basketball stadium near McCormick Place, though), it's probably cheaper to just leave them up as a reminder of what happens when people listen to (and believe the lies of) a tyrant.

The world comes together for the opening of the Global Education and Skills Forum 2018, and to set out the issues and opportunities surrounding this year's theme - "how do we prepare young people for the world of 2030 and beyond?"
While children were here, they were forbidden from talking to each other during the day without permission. Often times, they were only allowed to talk for 30 minutes a day during group. If they were found to be talking, they would be severely punished including physically restrained and put into isolation. Imagine this room full of children and yet silent every day. The only thing they were allowed to listen to were self-help audio tapes that boomed over the speakers.

This was the "new" gym that was constructed shortly before the closure of the school. The circle of chairs are part of groups that kids had to do during the seminar as part of a "lifeboat" exercise where they chose which of their peers would live or die as part of emotionally breaking them down.

At one point, this was a professional soccer field for the college and then later Academy at Ivy Ridge when they acquired the property. These days, it's so overgrown that you wouldn't know if it weren't for a sign sticking out of the brush.
Mittelbau-Dora (also Dora-Mittelbau and Nordhausen-Dora) was a German Nazi concentration camp located near Nordhausen in Thuringia, Germany. It was established in late summer 1943 as a subcamp of Buchenwald concentration camp, supplying labour for extending the nearby tunnels in the Kohnstein and for manufacturing the V-2 rocket and the V-1 flying bomb. In the summer of 1944, Mittelbau became an independent concentration camp with numerous subcamps of its own. In 1945, most of the surviving inmates were evacuated by the SS. On 11 April 1945, US troops freed the remaining prisoners. Around one in three of the roughly 60,000 prisoners who were sent to Mittelbau did not survive.
