Hi x, I'm responsible for conveying the Action Committee's suggestion to the Policy Committee for your assistance at MAPC's November 17 action. The idea we came up with was that it would be great if the Policy Committee could have letter-writing tables at the gathering. I've seen it done before and the results are both satisfying and potentially effective. The idea is, bring stamps, address stickers and envelopes, and have a suggested letter (or some important points to be made) and some paper, and encourage people to hand-write their own letters to Baldwin, Feingold, Kohl, Bush and Powell (or whoever you think is most appropriate). Hand-written letters apparently are the most effective. I know one of you expressed concern about the SOA message/connection of this action but I think we will really still be prioritizing the antiwar message so don't worry about that. The SOA link is just a new twist to keep the message fresh, I think. I wouldn't think the letters would even have to mention it. Unless you object, I'll be coming to your meeting on Tuesday (briefly) to convey this suggestion, hear/discuss your committee's response and answer any questions. I also am thinking of coming with you to see Feingold, unless you think my shaved head would tarnish your image. :-)  I promise not to spout socialist rhetoric. I'd just like to meet the guy and hear what he has to say. And thank him for having a backbone! In solidarity, x September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

What's a blog?   Actually, I'd prefer a few bucks of shoe leather going door-to-door to $400-$500 for insertion in Isthmus.   And my proposal does include the fall-back strategy of having the newsletter be a 1000-circulation one-sheet leaflet/calendar of events if we can't afford the tabloid.   X ----- Original Message ----- From: X To: X Cc: X Sent: Friday, November 09, 2001 10:02 PM Subject: RE: [MAPC-coord] PROPOSAL: MAPC/SWAIG Joint Newsletter If you would like to change your proposal to the publication of a joint newsletter next month, I would approve.  But commiting to a regular monthly publication, welllll...   I'm a little shy about approving this proposal and the reasons are a combination of fiscal and political caution.  If MAPC formally produces a newsletter, how will we assure a continuing commitment to appeal to a broad base of peace oriented people?  If we commit to supporting $500 publication costs, then we're also talking about that plus an occasional $400 or $500 distribution costs to get those 10,000 8 pagers folded into the Isthmus and we're up to $1000 a month.  Sounds like a good agenda item for the General Membership meeting.  I would prefer occasional ad hoc efforts rather than a joint commitment to publish a regular periodical.    Incidentally, the anti war movement may be a minority, but it remains to be seen how small it is.  I've talked and talked and can't find many people who are for the war. X ps I think we could hit a higher energy level, save 95% of that money and diseminate more and better information by saving those trees and going straight to a blog format.      -----Original Message----- From: madpeace-cc-admin@lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com [mailto:madpeace-cc-admin@lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com]On Behalf Of X Sent: Friday, November 09, 2001 6:36 PM To: coordination@madpeace.org Subject: [MAPC-coord] PROPOSAL: MAPC/SWAIG Joint Newsletter Educating the public needs to be our number one priority right now, given just how small a minority the anti-war movement is.  MAPC should be disseminating information and analysis on the widest possible basis, and using that information to help bring people into the organization and establish our identify in the community.  As X said at the student teach-in, we need to be thinking in terms of 10,000 copies of our literature, not a few hundred.   Following discussions with the South West Asia Information Group, I am proposing that MAPC & SWAIG publish a joint monthly newsletter.   The newsletter would be published as an 8-page newsprint tabloid.  MAPC would be responsible for content of pages 7 and 8, plus about a quarter of page one.  SWAIG would be responsible for the remaining content.    SWAIG's content would be similar to what was contained in its initial tabloid -- anslysis of the region, the war, and U.S. foreign policy.  MAPC's content would be a calendar of events, information from the various Working Groups on their upcoming activities, reports on past activities, and other content designed to motivate readers to get involved.  Solicitation of donations would also be included.   Approximately 10,000 copies of each issue would be published, requiring a major effort at distribution through literature tables, bundles left at stores, co-ops, etc., passing out at events or to pedestrians, and perhaps even door-to-door distribution in selected neighborhoods.   The printing cost for 10,000 copies of a 8-page tabloid would be approximately $500.00, using the non-union printer that SWAIG used for its tabloid.  (I would prefer to transfer the project to a union shop, preferably Port Publications in Port Washington; this may require an adjustment in either the budget or number of copies.)  This cost would be covered by MAPC.   I would expect that the newsletter would generate $100 to $200 per month in new donations, based on people clipping a donation request coupon.  Another option would be to sell advertisements in the newsletter to supportive businesses, co-ops, and organizations.  (SWAIG opposed this option, based on possible conflicts with the Madison Insurgent.  I will be meeting with the Insurgent collective to discuss whether they would in fact have objections to this.)   If finances do not permit monthly publication, Plan B would be for alternating between the tabloid and a 2-page, 8.5 by 11, smaller circulation, newsletter containing only MAPC organizational info.   Because MAPC's contribution to the content would reflect the activities of all of the Working Groups, I believe that the newsletter should be coordinated at the CC level.  (I ran this past O&E, who agreed.)  Options for filling the newsletter editor position would include:   (a)  One of the existing CC members could take on this project.   (b)  A new at-large CC position could be created   (c)  A Newsletter Working Group could be created; or   (d)  A volunteer who is not officially on the CC. but is willing to attend CC meetings, could be located.   X September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

I support adding another clause along these lines (although I'd vote for "considering" the government responsible instead of "holding" them responsible - holding them responsible infers we'd DO something, which we really can't, unless we can get the city to secede, which would be SO great... I'd also suggest "military policy" be changed to "military actions" and the last bit to "results of U.S. government indifference to the priority of humanitarian concerns in Afghanistan and the surrounding region."). Realistically, for the resolution to pass the Council, we'll have to either water this clause down or take it out.  But I don't think there's anything wrong with starting with something a bit more challenging and then adapting it to the political reality.  And people in MAPC will love this clause.  In all fairness, when we present the resolution to MAPC, we should let them know that it's likely to be revised after we get input from Council members, and get a sense of what sort of revisions they'd support. -X PS- I haven't raved in at least 5 years. ____________________________________________ X East Timor Action Network field organizer   ETAN field office Social Justice Center office 608-663-5431                         1202 Williamson St cell 608-347-4598                           Madison, WI 53703 home 608-255-4598                           fax 608-227-0141 Check out these internet sites! the East Timor Action Network/US http://www.etan.org Madison, WI - East Timor projects http://www.aideasttimor.org Madison's Social Justice Center http://www.socialjusticecenter.org "We struggled for more than 24 years for independence.

Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2001 14:02:43 -0500 Hi x, Please send to relevant people / lists. We have Oct 25th 6:30 - 11pm at WYOU available for a 'second' public screening of the 'Peace Videos' and any other videos the audience would like to see.  (refer list of videos at the end of email) A discussion after the videos would also be a good idea. We need atleast one person at MAPC who can be a point contact and organizer to use this screening opportunity as an outreach and organizing tool for the Peace Efforts.  This would include getting the word out, flyers, postering, email lists, signup sheets at event and generally using this as an organizing opportunity. WYOU can provide location, equipment and do the screening. Most of this has already been setup and its just a bit of effort needed in the next few days to 'pull this together'. I unfortunately do not have the bandwidth to pull this through next week. Can anyone at MAPC take this up ?  we may not be able to go ahead with it without this input. We need to figure this out by tommorow to go ahead with the Oct 25th screenings. My contact info: x x and x : x Peace x Hi These are the videos I have.

Dear Committee,      I found a few items you might want to keep in mind for meeting Feingold. (1)      First, the Friends' Service National Legislation site alerted me to this impending legislation from Senator Helms.  Let's ask Feingold to oppose it. http://www.fcnl.org/act_lam_current/actnow_lam_index.htm (2)      Here's the same site's recommendations on talking to legislators about upcoming military spending authorization, though it doesn't give bill numbers.  Seems like handy background. http://www.fcnl.org/issues/afghanistan/terrorism/stmt_military-spending.htm (3)      Also, let's give Feingold a big thanks for his lone opposition to "Patriot Act" S.1510.  Here's the ACLU's summary of that: http://www.aclu.org/news/2001/n101201c.html (4)      Now here are a few more thoughts.  Please bear with me, since I am new negotiating that www.thomas.loc.gov site (?address I think).  I found out from that that Feingold co-introduced S.1564, a bill relating to US adherence to the ABM Treaty.  It's now in the Committee on Armed Services. I haven't read the bill.  Let's do that since it's  lead by Feinstein, who can be hawkish.      A truly excellent resolution S.172 has been introduced into the Senate by Sen. Wellstone.  This is a sense resolution relating to humanitarian aid to the Afghanis.  Let's ask Feingold to back it.  I couldn't tell if he has or not.  It's in the Committee on Foreign Relations now.  Wellstone submitted a speech about it in the Congressional Record of 10/18.      There's also a S.173 resolution condemning violence against Iranian-Americans.  Presumably this won't be controversial, since they've already done the same with Arab-Americans and Sikh-Americans.      This may be outside the realm of our group, but S.1473 federalizes airport security (if the House will pass something similar).  I'm not sure how Feingold voted on this.  Personally, I think it's unacceptable for a legislator NOT to vote for this.  Certainly is a more direct response to the problem than starting a war!      Hope this helps.  Looking forward to seeing you Tuesday.

September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. I couldn't read all the way through this message from Gillam without reacting...  here goes: My best advice to the kids and th egrown-ups who want to hassle this is "get a life."  The Peace Symbol is a wonderful thing... paint it green if you have to, use it as a global truss if that appeals to your graphic sensibilities, but don't drop it and here's why... The so called "Peace Symbol" pre-dates most of us (apologies to the septuagenarians and older folks in our membership).  By the mid-1950s, public protests of the nuclear arms race were building. In 1955, the year in which Albert Einstein died, he and Bertrand Russell issued a Manifesto warning of the dangers of continuing the nuclear arms race. Two years later in 1957 the great humanitarian Albert Schweitzer made a public "Declaration of Conscience" in which he stated that "the end of further experiments with atom bombs would be like early sun rays of hope which suffering humanity is longing for." The Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy (SANE), an organization of private citizens seeking to alter official nuclear policies, was formed in 1957. One of the most widely known symbols in the world, in Britain it is recognised as standing for nuclear disarmament and in particular as the logo of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). In the United States and much of the rest of the world it is known more broadly as the peace symbol. It was designed in 1958 by Gerald Holtom, a professional designer and artist and a graduate of the Royal College of Arts. He showed his preliminary sketches to a small group of people in the Peace News office in North London and to the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War, one of several smaller organisations that came together to set up CND. The Direct Action Committee had already planned what was to be the first major anti-nuclear march, from London to Aldermaston, where British nuclear weapons were and still are manufactured. It was on that march, over the 1958 Easter weekend that the symbol first appeared in public. Five hundred cardboard lollipops on sticks were produced. Half were black on white and half white on green. Just as the churchs liturgical colours change over Easter, so the colours were to change, from Winter to Spring, from Death to Life. Black and white would be displayed on Good Friday and Saturday, green and white on Easter Sunday and Monday. The first badges were made by Eric Austin of Kensington CND using white clay with the symbol painted black. Again there was a conscious symbolism . They were distributed with a note explaining that in the event of a nuclear war, these fired pottery badges would be among the few human artifacts to survive the nuclear inferno. These early ceramic badges can still be found and one, lent by CND, was included in the Imperial War Museums 1999/2000 exhibition From the Bomb to the Beatles. What does it mean? Gerald Holtom, a conscientious objector who had worked on a farm in Norfolk during the Second World War, explained that the symbol incorporated the semaphore letters N(uclear) and D(isarmament). He later wrote to Hugh Brock, editor of Peace News, explaining the genesis of his idea in greater, more personal depth: I was in despair. Deep despair. I drew myself: the representative of an individual in despair, with hands palm outstretched outwards and downwards in the manner of Goyas peasant before the firing squad. I formalised the drawing into a line and put a circle round it. Eric Austin added his own interpretation of the design: "the gesture of despair had long been associated with the death of Man and the circle with the unborn child." Gerald Holtom had originally considered using the Christian cross symbol within a circle as the motif for the march but various priests he had approached with the suggestion were not happy at the idea of using the cross on a protest march. Later, ironically, Christian CND were to use the symbol with the central stroke extended upwards to form the upright of a cross. This adaptation of the design was only one of many subsequently invented by various groups within CND and for specific occasions with a cross below as a womens symbol, with a daffodil or a thistle incorporated by CND Cymru and Scottish CND, with little legs for a sponsored walk etc. Whether Gerald Holtom would have approved of some of the more light-hearted versions is open to doubt. The symbol almost at once crossed the Atlantic. Bayard Rustin, a close associate of Martin Luther King had come over from the US in order to take part in that first Aldermaston March. He took the symbol back to the United States where it was used on civil rights marches. Later it appeared on anti-Vietnam War demonstrations and was even seen daubed in protest on their helmets by American GIs. Simpler to draw than the Picasso peace dove, it became known, first in the US and then round the world as the peace symbol. It appeared on the walls of Prague when the Soviet tanks invaded in 1968, on the Berlin Wall, in Sarajevo and Belgrade, on the graves of the victims of military dictators from the Greek Colonels to the Argentinian junta, and most recently in East Timor. There have been claims that the symbol has older, occult or anti-Christian associations. In South Africa, under the apartheid regime, there was an official attempt to ban it. Various far-right and fundamentalist American groups have also spread the idea of Satanic associations or condemned it as a Communist sign. However the origins and the ideas behind the symbol have been clearly described, both in letters and in interviews, by Gerald Holtom and his original, first sketches are now on display as part of the Commonweal Collection in Bradford. Although specifically designed for the anti-nuclear movement it has quite deliberately never been copyrighted. No one has to pay or to seek permission before they use it. A symbol of freedom, it is free for all. This of course sometimes leads to its use, or misuse, in circumstances that CND and the peace movement find distasteful. It is also often exploited for commercial, advertising or generally fashion purposes. We cant stop this happening and have no intention of copyrighting it. All we can do is to ask commercial users if they would like to make a donation. Any money received is used for CNDs peace education and information work.

Just a heads up that the MAPC logo will be on the agenda for Tuesday night's general membership meeting, and a few comments (okay, I lied - lots of comments) since I may not be able to attend the whole meeting. While (AFAIK) we've never voted on this, the peace sign wrapped around the globe has become the de facto MAPC logo.  (IIRC the general membership referred the logo question back to the Arts & Culture WG, and they couldn't come up with anything better.) The Student/Youth Caucus has objected to this logo, and designed a new one, which will be presented on Tuesday.  (As I understand it, the problem is that the peace sign is tied to a particular historic era, and carries baggage which is too hippie-ish -- as opposed to activist.  There is also concern that the grey-scale of the logo does not reduce or reproduce well.) Their proposed logo has a half-globe, without peace sign, with paler images of the globe radiating out from it.  (Lousy description, I know.) I sympathize with the S/YC's objections, but I like their proposed graphic even less than the one we've been using.  To me, it's not particularly distinctive, and a globe alone just doesn't say "peace" to me.  It could just as easily be the logo graphic for a global telecommunications corporation. Then again, I'm not sure that any graphic we pick to represent "peace/anti-war" will be acceptable to and truly representative of the whole Coalition.  The Vietnam-era peace sign is, well, Vietnam era, and doesn't represent the new generation of activists.  The dove has a longer history, but strikes me as a bit too "Pacifist" in image, as does the rifle with a flower in its barrel, broken rifle, broken bomb, and a few others.  The other predominant image from the Vietnam era, the clenched fist, of course, has the opposite connotation.  We've already been through the discussion of incorporating the symbolism of the American flag; some of us think "peace is patriotic" and others of us think U.S. nationalism is part of the problem. And while the globe could well be something that none of us object to, it really doesn't symbolize anything that distinguishes us from the other side. "Madison area" is tough to symbolize graphically.  The most identifiable symbols are architectural (the State Capitol), and we have nothing to do with state government.  Doing something with the outline of the state and highlighting the Madison area really doesn't work graphically.  And I doubt that anyone would recognize that a satellite view of the Four Lakes was anything other than a Rorschach inkblot test. We could try to have a symbol for everyone, incorporating lots of different images in the logo, but the result would likely be an unwieldy mess. My personal opinion at this point is that we should either (1)come up with a graphic that is brand new -- no baggage from past movements or ideologies -- (and I have no earthly idea what this would be); or (2) just go with a "words-only" logo, using a very distinctive typestyle and arrangement of the words in our organization name.  If the typestyle and arrangement are distinctive enough, IMO the logo will be recognizeable and identifiable, and would avoid the symbolism & baggage problems inherent in selecting any graphic image for a diverse coalition.

Dear Action and Coordination committees, The Palestine Right to Return Coalition would like to offer the MAPC members a teach-in on the Palestine/Israel conflict. X, a graduate student writing his thesis on the conflict and the founder of Alternative Palestinian Agenda, does a 45 minute teach-in that covers the geographical, political, legal, and historical aspect of the conflict.  We believe that there will be an interest among MAPC members and that it would benefit them to have a basic understanding of the issue, if they don't already. Please let me know how this might be set up. I suggest it gets brought up at the next general meeting to see how much interest there is, and then we can set a time somehow.

Thanks for working on this, X!  It looks really good.  My suggestions are below - the biggest one being that we should NOT include anything that might be construed as supporting or even tolerating the U.S. bombing of Afghanistan.  I realize that we won't be able to get the Council to call on the U.S. to stop bombing, and think focusing on the humanitarian crisis is a great strategy, but let's think about how we can word the resolution so that it's more in line with the "peace and justice, not war and revenge" point of unity.  The Alders can also advise us about what's politically do-able. -X PS- Since this is a time-sensitive matter - winter is fast approaching - let's try to push this to a Council vote quickly. > Hi Everyone, > Last night we decided that I would draft a resolution, and all of us on > the policy committee would contribute comments on that draft.  Then we could > work all those comments in.  After that, we would bring it around to all the > alders for their feedback. > To develop the resolution, I looked at Madison's 9/25 resolution > condemning the 9/11 attack and expressing sympathy for the victims > (http://www.ci.madison.wi.us/council/ccattach/att092501/attack30314.pdf).

I have contacted Judy.  She is planning on calling at about 1:00 on Saturday. Who is the replacement outie for Action? X Dear X, I'm refering this to you since I know you have a cell phone and I suspect you'll be at the rally Saturday. I got a call from Judy (can't find her last name) - one of the people on her way to Georgia.  They would like to call us at the rally on Saturday and give us a live update of what's going on so we can announce it. They are going to be using the following cell phone: 608-279-5726.  A guy called X might answer it (I guess it's his phone). Could you please call them at that number or at Judy's home number at XXX-XXXX and let them know if they can call you Saturday? thanks, X p.s. could my name be taken off from the web site and from future meetings as the outie for Action, since I really do not attend meeting regularly and I cannot give out accurate information? thanks. _______________________________________________ coordination@madpeace.org http://lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com/mailman/listinfo/madpeace-cc _______________________________________________ coordination@madpeace.org http://lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com/mailman/listinfo/madpeace-cc September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Hi all! If this email looks familiar it is because I am trying to help put together a coord comm meeting as well organized as the one Gillam facilitated last week. The next Coordinating Committee meeting will be Sunday, November 18, at 4:00 p.m., at Memorial Union (Check TITU for room location).  I have NOT submitted the room reservation request.  I understand from the minutes that Derek has this covered. IMPORTANT:  If you're an Outie, and you cannot attend, please ensure that someone else from your Working Group/Caucus is at this meeting. As you know, we continually postpone agenda items at our meetings.  As facilitator for the upcoming meeting, I would like to help us move through the agenda more quickly. FIRST:  I am asking each Outie to post his/her Working Group's or Caucus's report to the CC mailing list BY FRIDAY NIGHT.  Your report should be divided into three parts:  (1) update on the WG/C's activities; (2) requests for assistance from other WG/Cs, and (3)  proposals to be acted on by the CC or general membership.  This will enable us to read the updates ahead of time, and focus our meeting time on the requests for assistance and proposals. SECOND:  Anyone with a proposal to present should write it up and send it out to the CC list, again BY FRIDAY NIGHT.  This way, the proponent won't have to spend meeting time explaining the proposal, and we can jump right into questions and discussion. Please note that the success of these measures is dependent both on everyone sending out the advance e-mail reports & proposals AND on everyone reading their e-mail prior to the meeting. I would also like to follow the suggestion that we defer action on all proposals from WGs & Caucus until after all WG/Cs have reported. The proposed agenda for the meeting is as follows: 1.  Introductions & Check-in 2.  Additions/amendments to agenda 3.  Approval of minutes 4.  Working Group & Caucus Reports 5.  Action on Working Group/Caucus Proposals Old Business: 6.  Proposal:  MAPC/SWAIG Newsletter 7.  Proposal:  Peace Draft 8.  Adding at-large CC members New Business: Please let me know if you have any additional items to add; I will print up an updated agenda for distribution at the meeting. Thanks, X P.S.  If you are no longer the Outie for your WG/C, please forward this e-mail to the new Outie.  Thanks. _______________________________________________ coordination@madpeace.org http://lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com/mailman/listinfo/madpeace-cc September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.
