Interesting. Depending upon my schedule, I very well might attend. That's very close, distance wise.
[FONT=Arial]“Whoever labours becomes a proprietor... And when I say proprietor, I do not mean simply (as do our hypocritical economists) proprietor of his allowance, his salary, his wages, – I mean proprietor of the value he creates, and by which the master alone profits... The labourer retains, even after he has received his wages, a natural right in the thing he has produced.”[/FONT]-Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, What is Property?, pg. 123-4
Yes. Yes. Yes.
"If those in charge of our society — politicians, corporate executives, and owners of press and television — can dominate our ideas, they will be secure in their power. They will not need soldiers patrolling the streets. We will control ourselves."

I'll be there with other WPA folks.
I don't see why I wouldn't since I'm a midwestern woman.
I dreamt of a flower that was so beautiful that when it whithered away and died a tear left my eye. I saw our births, our lives and our deaths. I felt fire paint me with pain and I felt a kiss on my lips with a knife in my neck. Love to heartbreak to self-destruction to birth and to finally learning to frolic back into the same trap with a warm smile.

Summit hopping is sooooo 2001.
Put capitalism in a bag of rice.
Some Wobblies and I are hoping to make it as well. Looks like the Revleft Convention may happen after all
I saw millions of people working.
Not for themselves but for someone else.
I saw millions of people doing.
Not what they themselves want to do.
But what someone else wants them to do.

UNAC is trying to make the Saturday May 19 demo a mass, peaceful demonstration. Hopefully as things come closer a framework based on the Pittsburgh Principles from the 2009 G20 protests will come together:

Not sure what the more anarchist flavored ones will be like. Depending on what's what at that time, I may or may not be in Chicago for the 19th.

You don't, you're not a totally sick-nasty insurrecto.
The MLs will be there with portraits of Che Guevara for you to carry though.
Put capitalism in a bag of rice.
If you get caught with a helmet anywhere in Illinois within a month of the summit you'll be visiting a secret detention center somewhere.
Edit- actually this isn't usually the case- the pitts demo security stuff got put up overnight

“How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?” Charles Bukowski, Factotum
"In our glorious fight for civil rights, we must guard against being fooled by false slogans, as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining... We demand this fraud be stopped." MLK

Everybody dress up as Red Army men and pretend to be traveling bands of WWII reenactors until the last minute.
