MARCH 2002 : (HARLEM, NY CITY : "NION PROJECT" IS SPAWNED AT ST MARY'S "CHURCH" --see REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNIST PARTY, RATNER) In March 2002, individuals from different organizations, backgrounds, communities and political perspectives met together at St. Mary's Church in Harlem, NYC, to discuss what was needed to build resistance to the U.S. government's "war on terrorism" launched in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. The group recognized that the government was embarking on a new openly imperial policy towards the world and a dangerous escalation in the curtailment of rights domestically. The Not in Our Name Pledge of Resistance and Statement of Conscience-Not in Our Name are the two living documents that were developed from the March 2002 meeting and express the essence of the Not in Our Name Project. Participation is open to individuals and organizations that adopt the Pledge and participate in Not in Our Name-initiated and supported events and campaigns. ------About the Not in Our Name Project http://www.notinourname.net/archive/mission-statement-aug03.htm ...19 posted on 06/27/2005 5:39:06 PM PDT by listenhillary | To 1

(NION : ) According to L.A. Weekly writer Steven Mikulan; "the “Not in My Name” campaign - which pushes an anti-war statement signed by scores of prominent and celebrity lefties, including Jane Fonda, Martin Luther King III, Marisa Tomei, Kurt Vonnegut and Oliver Stone - has been directed, in part, by C. Clark Kissinger, a longtime Maoist activist and member of the Revolutionary Communist Party." Mikulan continued; "Lately, another kind of debate has swirled around the doctrinaire beliefs of the anti-war movement’s organizers. International ANSWER (Act Now To Stop War and End Racism), the group behind Saturday’s march, is the creation of a Trotskyite sect called the Workers World Party, which noisily supports such pleasure domes as North Korea and Yugoslavia under Milosevic. Similarly, the Not in My Name project, which sponsored a celebrity anti-war petition campaign, can be traced back to the Maoist Revolutionary Communist Party, who, like the WWP, has nary a discouraging word to say about Saddam Hussein — or any anti-American tyrant and guerrilla movement." ------------- Steven Mikulan, LA Weekly Writer in Open City: Following the Flags in San Francisco, Fri Nov 1, 2002.
