17:23:30 From John Bancroft to All panelists : Part of the reason there are relatively so few photographs of the antiwar movement is that we were scared the photos of people would end up with the FBI. Often if you took photos at a demonstration someone would shout out "no photos!"

17:52:47 From Stephen Spitz to Everyone : That event in May 2015 in Washington DC was great at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church and the Martin Luther King Memorial.
17:53:01 From Heather Booth to Everyone : It is up to US to build the POWER to influence the outcomes. That means people power, votes, money power, -- we need to ORGANIZE as well as make demands.

17:54:45 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Heather: What demands are you making, then, of Biden-Harris?
17:54:57 From John Bancroft to Everyone : March for Our Lives was the best ever for the speed at which it was organized (less than a month after the Parkland massacre) and that it was organized almost exclusively by high school students. We learned from you!

17:57:04 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Yes, but “win” what, exactly??
17:57:41 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : And gain political power by engaging more youth in politics like AOC
17:57:59 From Heather Booth to Everyone : Midwest Academy's 3 principles: 1) win real victories to improve people's lives, 2) give people a sense of their own power, 3) change the relationship of power. www.midwestacademy.com

17:58:52 From Heather Booth to Everyone : WELCOME PAUL SOGLIN!
Is there an historian in the house able to create teaching material—study guides, etc.—to accompany the movie?
17:59:05 From Heather Booth to Everyone : WELCOME KARL ARMSTRONG!
17:59:21 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Love her fearlessness to speak truth to power
17:59:49 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Some organization everyone wants to be “part of...”
17:59:49 From Bette Bono to Everyone : Jeff Malachowsky, nice to "see" you here.
18:00:11 From karl Armstrong to All panelists : Thanks for the invite and the very eloquent panelists.
18:00:31 From Tony Del Plato to All panelists : Glenn. Great point. Too many of us didn't move into positions of power
18:01:05 From Jeff Malachowsky to Everyone : And, YOU! And HELLO to Alex!! Reminding me of Jorgen Dragsdahl…
18:01:08 From gershon mitchel to Everyone : .from gershon, is an undergirding organizing principle that ties movements together, so common threat?
18:01:53 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Karl: I need a cab! 😜 Any golf in this weather?? 🤩
18:02:40 From Ronald Mendel to All panelists : The anti-war movement in the 60s and 70s featured a tension between strategic and expressive politics, which perhaps accounts for its failure to think about power as a goal.
18:02:57 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : The important points are now being made: gaining power. 1) If Heather is right that we didn't do enough to reach out the those who were in the National Guard, we have to ask about our tactics because many people like it or not are absolutely turned off by direct action/confrontation. I ran for local office (and won) because I was inspired by Paul Soglin and Julian Bond. To me it is always about gaining power and that means political power. Not only did some activists in the 60s have a disdain for "power" but Occupy did the same.
18:04:18 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Violence begets violence. PERIOD. Real accountability essential.
18:04:41 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : A powerful film Glenn, I used it with great effect in my class on Social Movements and Legacies of the Sixties. Among the tough issues it raises is the forces that lead to militancy and violence, as well as the impact those have. In my view antiwar militancy both helped to bring the war to an end but also provided the forces of backlash with persuasive images they used to great effect.
18:05:31 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Thank you, Paul!
18:05:53 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : The INSTUTUTIONS are DESIGNED to hold us back, and keep us down.
18:05:55 From Judy Gumbo to Everyone : from Art Eckstein: the Weather Underground didn’t ruin a lot of people’s lives as John said. If only because no-one went to prison because charges were dismissed because of FBI malfeasance. Nor did Weatherman destroy the anti-war movement. Government oppression did that job.
18:06:43 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : iT has inspired me for years. Sorry.
18:08:09 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : Agree Paul. And class organizing is a crucial element of that!
18:08:18 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : How do you build a political movement that gets to the heart of the moral outrage of war and get politicians onside. Nearly a trillion dollar budget just passed in congress shows that no-one there is morally outraged enough to stop this madness.
18:08:22 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : I cannot fight cops, but we need people who can. I was never involved in any BPP shoot-ins with police, but I have enormous respect for those who found themselves in situations where they needed to.
18:08:25 From Heather Booth to Everyone : Agree.
18:09:28 From Ann Gordon to Everyone : Paul Soglin has never been merely a symbol! --Ann Gordon here, now in NJ
18:09:40 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : >military budget
18:09:54 From Curt Doty to Everyone : We need to know Karl’s part in history.
18:10:24 From Mary Beth Marklein to All panelists : ... and how Karl views his contribution to history today
18:11:00 From Brewster Rhoads to John McAuliff(Direct Message) : You should ask him this question from the Q&A : James Wilberforce 06:09 PM
Karl: So you agree it was a mistake?
18:11:29 From Jim Barton to Everyone : Karl- Have you ever been in conversation with Mark Rudd?
18:12:36 From Paul Soglin to All panelists : Hi Ann G.!!!!
18:13:35 From Heather Booth to Everyone : THANK YOU TO THE VETS WHO STOOD UP AGAINST THE WAR!
18:13:47 From Dan Petegorsky to Everyone : Yes - VVAW was also tremendously inspiring for the rest of us in the movement.
18:14:01 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : Hear Hear!
18:14:33 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Doug left out the arrest and trial of the Gainesville 8; 7 VVAW members and one "citizen" charged with crossing state lines to incite to riot at the GOP convention in '72.
18:14:42 From Bill Shugarts to All panelists : Doug is correct! I tell folks when I work at the Wall when asked about the "Anti-War protesters" impact. My answer is simple: "there would be another 20,000+ names on this Wall had they not protest". The 58,279 names and their backgrounds are now available to see. Most middle and lower class kids like I was. Bill Shugarts, Vietnam Veteran, Wall Docent
18:14:54 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Nonsense. Sorry.
18:14:56 From karl Armstrong to All panelists : VVAW was huge for resistance to the war.
18:15:19 From Howard Dratch to Everyone : Thank you for pointing out the effort to distort the history of the anti-war movement exemplified by the myth that returning GIs were spit upon. Completely untrue!
18:15:22 From Brewster Rhoads to All panelists : Question for Glenn: Anonymous Attendee 06:14 PM
Question for Glenn: in the film, the person who died in Army Math isn’t given a name. Let alone a backstory. His name was Robert Fassnacht. He had a wife and 3 children. Why is he omitted. The tragedy would have been deepened if he had been presented as a real person. Why did you not include him?
18:15:26 From Katherine Power to All panelists : Important comment that Dave Dellinger mad when he visited me in prison. He held himself and other non-violent activists somewhat responsible for the turn to violence because they did not provide militant, radical, non-violent alternatives to the more mainstream vote-lobby-march politely strategy. He said that in Washington, after the invasion of Cambodia, there were hundreds, including members of Congress, who were willing to sit down in the street and shut down Washington. But they were outmaneuvered by the leaders who favored less militant tactics.
18:16:41 From Brewster Rhoads to John McAuliff(Direct Message) : Question for Karl: Stephen Spitz 06:15 PM
Karl: Do you think the Weather Underground helped or hurt the antiwar movement?
18:16:42 From Robert Levering to Everyone : People forget that by opposing the VN war, we were up against the most powerful gov't in the world. And that we were very successful. Our mov't was a major factor in ending the war. Nixon/Kissinger/Ford were unable to keep up the bombing because of the antiwar movement. Without us the war could have continued for many more years, like what's happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.
18:16:57 From Mandy Carter to Everyone : I am remembering the Presidio 27 action in San Francisco, California by active military members. Anyone on here that took part in it?
18:17:08 From Margot Williams to Everyone : More of the story of women in the antiwar movements should be told. Not in leadership, but the rest of us. Glad to see Jessica and Eve speaking.
18:17:16 From gershon mitchel to Everyone : from gershon, question, is there any dignity to war. Does dignity as a concept matter in this discussion
18:19:33 From Kristin Cabral to Everyone : Part of today’s war on home is the student debt crisis, and Trump’s “draft” was his HHS advisor wanting to intentionally infect youth with COVID
18:19:49 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : One 'lesson' of the antiwar movement very relevant to today is that the US is still an imperial power with a horrific foreign policy. As we coalesce around social and racial justice, climate change, and all the other important causes, we must not forget US foreign policy.
18:19:56 From Curt Doty to Everyone : Arte! You are awesome!
18:20:03 From Heather Booth to Everyone : Thank you, Artemisio--Yes, we need to organize!
18:20:23 From gershon mitchel to Everyone : from gershon, re cultural space, way of living--does dignity have any role?
18:20:38 From Heather Booth to Everyone : David Cortright has been a true hero for peace and justice
18:20:54 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Show people the possibilities of what could be...inspire…engage.
18:21:16 From Tom Weiner to All panelists : I appreciate Artemisio’s passion and sense of urgency, which has to become what informs the new administration or we are in dire straits…
18:22:33 From Brewster Rhoads to Everyone : Artemisio..Your powerful and insightful comments give me SO much hope that the future of our movement for social, racial and environmental justice is in good hands. Thanks for all you do!
18:22:36 From Bill Galvin to Everyone : And April 4 is also the date of the Kingsbay Plowshares action---and those folks are in jail now.
18:22:49 From Ronald Mendel to All panelists : MLK's speech is/was a powerful indictment of US Imperial Power.
18:23:47 From Judy Gumbo to Everyone : Good question Karl!
18:23:49 From PAUL ROGERS to Everyone : Best book on the GI resistance: Soldiers in Revolt, by our very own David Cortright!
18:24:33 From Tom Weiner to All panelists : Soldiers in Revolt should be required reading by anyone studying the war. It remains a much too neglected story that had seismic impact.
18:25:10 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : The need to get votes to get elected brings you into contact with people you don’t ordinarily speak with...
18:27:30 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : For good reason... Resentment. The demagogues turn it on others...
18:27:45 From Stu Levitan to Everyone : Chuck Berry
18:28:00 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Thank you!! Stu!!
18:28:02 From David Hughes to Everyone : Today is very different than during the VN war in terms of organizing: for one, the media is totally complicit so the America people know practically nothing about what the US is doing around the world and two, there is no draft. Given that and other factors, for example, many people thinking Biden is good after the Trump experience. How can a popular movement strong enough to change US foreign policy be built?
18:28:27 From Stephen Spitz to Everyone : Paul: I have spent many a day on Highway 67 in Mississippi as a Civil Rights lawyer.
18:28:34 From Bill Shugarts to All panelists : Amen!!
18:29:55 From Bill Galvin to Everyone : Acyually, there is draft registration for men---and sometime in the next year or 2 it will probably be expanded to include women unless we mobilize resistance.
18:30:19 From David Parker to Everyone : Yes Jess! Organize the people who don’t vote. Check out Wm Barber’s Poor Peoples Campaign.
18:30:28 From peter anderson to All panelists : There would seem to be an internal contradiction between the sense of morality that motivates our movement and the flip side, sanctimony, that turns off the very people we need to bring over to our side to have enough votes to win sustainably.
18:30:40 From Louise Foresman to All panelists : NPR just did a report on who the people are who didn't vote in the 2020 general election. A majority were under the age of 30 and were Latinx...
18:31:09 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Love everything you’re saying Jessica!
18:31:42 From Artemisio Romero Carver to Everyone : +++++
18:33:05 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Yes, it was a very proud moment for Madison!
18:33:14 From Robert Levering to All panelists : Amen Jessica about the contrast between the debate about Covid-19 bill and the non-debate about the war budget
18:33:41 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Hizzoner! Right again!
18:34:34 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Police protect property, NOT people. Arguably, ACAB.
18:34:37 From Chic Canfora to All panelists : We did the same thing at Kent State, Paul, after the invasion of Cambodia. Our targets in downtown were the army recruitment office windows, AT&T, the Liquid Crystals Institute where they worked on napalm—but when opportunists broke windows of local shopowners—we owned it and helped them board up and replace their windows. It supports the values argument you made.
18:34:55 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Shout out to former Madison Police Chief David Couper!
18:35:17 From Mary Beth Marklein to Everyone : It is breaking my heart to see businesses shutting down on State Street.
18:35:35 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : There must be a price paid for unchecked, unaccountable police murder.
18:35:49 From Page Delano to Everyone : The New Yorker article on Dan Barkhuff https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-veterans-organizing-to-stop-trumpism is an interesting pro-Constitution veterans group… who is organizing Iraqi/Afghan/Somali etc etc vets — ? in a time of terrible US militarism beyond the US…? what resistance can you envision in the US military beyond slipping away from Trum support…?
18:36:27 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : Steve Spitz: It was a combination of civil rights history and blues history. Confederate monuments, slave and share croppers, inadequate recognition of the blues artists and the civil rights movement.
18:37:42 From Judy Danielson to Everyone : As a start, we must take the ability to declare wars (AUMF-2001-2002) away from the President, require Congress to debate and declare.
18:38:13 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Many different threads here... Where are the best “fora” for these discussions? F-book all there is? Jacobin? Counterpunch? Common Dreams? Talk-talk-tak, but no discussion.
18:38:38 From Mary Beth Marklein to Everyone : yes, agree
18:39:44 From Judy Gumbo to Everyone : I’d like to hear more from Karl Armstrong about what HE thinks would have happened if no one had been killed.
18:39:45 From Eve Levenson (she/her), MFOL to Everyone : To follow up on Jess’s points for folks who are interested in learning more about the stats about how young people votes in the 2020 election and how young people — patricianly young BIPOC — were the deciding factor in many swing states that ensured Trump’s failures: https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/election-week-2020#youth-voter-turnout-increased-in-2020
18:40:15 From Laurie Sandow to All panelists : Some VVAW photos from Dewey Canyon III: http://www.vvaw.org/gallery/1970s.php
18:40:49 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Judy, Please ask your question in the Q and A. It relates to some others there.
18:41:11 From Robert Van Meter to Everyone : I remember the SDS slogan and button to Stop the Seventh War from Now. That's where we are today.
18:41:27 From Martha Winnacker to All panelists : Agree with Judy that AUMFs must be repealed - and Congress engage in open discussion to raise awareness of their significance.
18:41:34 From Laurie Sandow to Everyone : Some VVAW photos from Dewey Canyon III: http://www.vvaw.org/gallery/1970s.php
18:41:52 From Laurie Sandow to Everyone : And a short article: http://www.vvaw.org/veteran/article/?id=1656
18:42:01 From Kathryn Shagas to Everyone : I would also like to hear what Karl thinks about what would have happened if no-one was killed.
18:42:12 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Agree!
18:42:17 From Judy Gumbo to Everyone : Question asked in Q &A. Thanks for the suggestion.
18:42:22 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : John makes a very important point about how the government learned from the Vietnam to exercise their warmaking policy in different ways, with greater media control. So the antiwar movement got greater and more aggressive over time, whereas with Iraq the largest antiwar protest preceded the war, and afterwards got smaller and smaller so that now public perception of US war making policy seems invisible.
18:43:17 From Peter Werbe to Everyone : For what it's worth: The Fifth Estate, a Detroit underground newspaper, that began in 1965 and still publishes today, during the Vietnam war called for victory for the NLF, mutiny in the armed forces, and general strike at home to end the conflict. We sent hundreds of papers each week to GIs in Vietnam with the call for victory for who they were fighting and still received an overwhelmingly positive response from them. Some of our articles can be accessed at https://www.fifthestate.org/archive/.
18:44:13 From PAUL ROGERS to Everyone : WOW. Jess is wise beyond her years.
18:44:18 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : peter, were you there then?
18:44:47 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : <3 <3 <3
18:45:58 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Twitter makes it all ephemeral...
18:46:10 From David Hughes to Everyone : The fundamental problem we face is the economic system itself and the hope that the democrats will make things better. Until enough people make the leap from the lesser evil approach to voting the status quo will be maintained!!!
18:46:49 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : I can’t get the damn bus stop cleared!
18:46:53 From Judy Danielson to Everyone : We can
18:47:34 From Judy Danielson to Everyone : t wait for the right government, we have to move the ‘governors’.
18:47:36 From Peter Werbe to Everyone : Also, have we come to our demand being "Please, sir, don't kill everything so fast?" We used to call for socialism (not the social democracy of DSA, communism, or anarchism. I think we wanted a revolution, not reforms. Today, that seems like an impossible position which means the triumph of capital. We ultimately can only operate on their terms for reforms, needed ones to be sure. But what happened to the utopian visions of the elders? Now, it's Biden? Yes, he and the Democrats will kill everything a little slower, so good he got in. But, we need a vision of new world to fight for.
18:47:59 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Admin: why do my posts show as Me instead of my name (Gary Gordon)? Happened during the Chicago 8 webinar too.
18:48:08 From Esty Dinur to All panelists : Kudos, Jess & Eve!
18:48:19 From Peter Werbe to Everyone : To James W. Yes, I was there. Still am. haha.
18:48:36 From Jess Pierce (She/Her), PxP Strategies to Everyone : Gary we see your name. :)
18:48:42 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : They show as Gary Gordon to the rest of us, Gary.
18:48:45 From David Hughes to Everyone : Gary, shows your name to others and "me" to you
18:49:11 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Laurie-Frost, Jess, David; thank you!!!
18:49:12 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Peter, Excellent news!
18:49:58 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Hair got longer! Hell, yeah! Now we’re talking!
18:50:06 From Judy Danielson to Everyone : Vote for brown and black people, they know about climate/health/economic/food/housing injustice because they live it.
18:50:08 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : We have failed to truly bring movements together powerfully --then and now. What do speakers think of the idea of organizing a progressive/coalition political party that, for now, doesn't run candidates for office (given the stacked 2-party system), but develops a a common platform and analysis of the changes that must occur. While not running candidates for. a while, they could endorse progressive candidates
18:50:52 From Esty Dinur to All panelists : & kudos Arte!
18:51:06 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : ted, good notion
18:51:23 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Artemisio: right on! Excellent!
18:52:05 From Brewster Rhoads to John McAuliff(Direct Message) : I have several questions for Karl
18:52:09 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Judy: Corruption has no color, unless it’s “green..”
18:52:12 From Katherine Power to All panelists : What these young people so clearly understand is the organic nature of what needs to be done, what they are doing. A movement of movements is good description.
18:52:26 From Heather Booth to All panelists : 9 minutes left in the program.
18:52:28 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : Arte: Yes, meet people where they are at. Find out their basic values and needs.
18:52:39 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : I am a literacy activist. Literacy is also a racial justice issue. Don’t know about your community, but in Madison, only 10-15% of Black and Brown students are reading proficiently. And it’s been that way for decades. Unconscionable.
18:52:41 From David Hughes to Everyone : It is already there, it is called the Green Party!!!
18:53:13 From Brewster Rhoads to All panelists : We need to hear from Karl. I have several questions for him
18:53:37 From Heather Booth to All panelists : Yes, let's hear from Karl and final comments.
18:53:48 From Eve Levenson (she/her), MFOL to All panelists : ^
18:54:23 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Glenn, Thanks for wearing the hat. U-rah-rah!
18:55:25 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Could we hear a little something from Karl? His thoughts about all this? Where is he at today?
18:55:39 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : Excellent point, Heather.
18:55:56 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Climate change and pandemics are like Trumps if we don’t watch out and coordinate collectively.
18:55:57 From Esty Dinur to Everyone : The young ones are smarter than us. They don't seem to be arguing and being holier than thou the way our generation has been. I say learn from them.
18:56:01 From Milt Mankoff to Everyone : Better messaging is critical, which includes taking "patriotism" away from the right.
18:56:15 From Martha & Bob Spanninger & Mueller to Everyone : Heather you are amazing.
18:56:21 From Katherine Power to Everyone : Important comment that Dave Dellinger made when he visited me in prison. He held himself and other non-violent activists somewhat responsible for the turn to violence because they did not provide militant, radical, non-violent alternatives to the more mainstream vote-lobby-march politely strategy. He said that in Washington, after the invasion of Cambodia, there were hundreds, including members of Congress, who were willing to sit down in the street and shut down Washington. But they were outmaneuvered by the leaders who favored less militant tactics.
18:56:34 From Kristin Cabral to Everyone : Unify around food on the table, roof over your heads, clothes on your backs ... and healthcare (not warfare) and curing the climate are connected to those basics
18:57:02 From Brewster Rhoads to All panelists : Thank you Heather.
18:57:32 From PAUL ROGERS to Everyone : Jess,
18:58:13 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : Well put, Karl
18:58:24 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : The Politics of Resentment by Kathy Cramer, Ph.D.
18:58:31 From PAUL ROGERS to Everyone : Jess, Artemiso, Eve: You lift an old movement guys heart.
18:58:36 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : I have nothing more to say - Karl said it.
18:58:44 From Heather Booth to All panelists : GA and AZ found ways to do that organizing and built a majority. With motivating our base and deep organizing.
18:58:46 From Katherine Power to Everyone : What these young people so clearly understand is the organic nature of what needs to be done, what they are doing. A movement of movements is good description.
18:58:49 From Kathryn Shagas to Everyone : Agree with Karl.
18:58:52 From Jess Pierce (She/Her), PxP Strategies to Everyone : I want to be clear about something though—there wasn’t just one thing——the movement fuels the power that we can leverage to win. Civil rights work in 1964 seeded the passing of the civil rights act, but all the fair housing act, the voting rights act, the high speed ground transit act——we won on multiple issues, saw change on multiple issues.
18:58:52 From Gary Gordon to Everyone : Paul talked about going into the taverns and workplaces and talking to people who disagree, and this is the deep organizing Heather spoke about earlier.
18:58:53 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Was at your hearing in Boston, Kathy. Hope you’re well.
18:58:56 From Ted Morgan to Everyone : See also Alrie Hochschild's "Strangers in their Own Land"
18:59:06 From Judy Gumbo to Everyone : Thank you Karl!
18:59:06 From Kathryn Shagas to Everyone : Laurie, are you connected to the Campaign for Grade-Level Reading? I do their graphics.
18:59:21 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : Yes Ted!!!!
18:59:22 From Milt Mankoff to Everyone : Karl is absolutely right.
18:59:40 From Laurie Frost to Everyone : No. Never heard of them. I will look them up. Thanks!
18:59:56 From Kathryn Shagas to Everyone : http://gradelevelreading.net/
19:00:31 From Kristin Cabral to Everyone : When I ran for Congress as a Dem in Virginia in 2012, I accepted an invitation to speak to a Tea Party group (who hated my Establishment GOP incumbent opponent). It was revealing. Very interesting.
19:01:19 From Tena Karpatkin to All panelists : <3
19:01:42 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Kathy: “Don’t follow leaders, watch your parking meters..” Go to see you here. I’m in cambridge
19:02:07 From Mandy Carter to Everyone : Thanks so much!! A great webinar!!
19:02:16 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : “Good” to see you here, that is...
19:02:24 From Sam Coleman to All panelists : THANK YOU PANELISTS!
19:02:42 From Heather Booth to All panelists : Wonderful participants. Great to be your movement partners. The struggle continues!!
19:02:45 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : Don't mourn, Organize
19:02:50 From Laramie Silber to Everyone : Thank you all for your time and contributions!
19:02:56 From Chic Canfora to All panelists : Thank you for elevating an important conversation.
19:02:58 From Norman Stockwell to Everyone : Thanks everyone for a great program.
19:03:17 From Louise Foresman to Everyone : Mourn, and THEN organize.
19:03:40 From Heather Booth to All panelists : I have to leave for a 7 PM ET event. THANK YOU!!!
19:03:44 From James Wilberforce to Everyone : Thanbks, Karl... And thanks, all... Happy Christmas and Holiday (Solstice) Season... We will survive for another turn of the sun.
19:03:59 From Kristin Cabral to Everyone : You young women ROCK! GRATITUDE to you.
19:04:05 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : YES! One more film recommendation; Heather Booth: Changing the World
19:04:31 From Martha & Bob Spanninger & Mueller to Everyone : Include the Q&A and the Chat in what you make available.
19:04:33 From Dean Prina to All panelists : Greetings from Colorado. Best zoom I have seen in a long time. As a 1975 Stanford graduate, I applaud you all! I was one week from being drafted to Vietnam. I was an activist then and I still am now!
19:05:23 From Stephanie Hysmith to All panelists : Thank you all. So pleased that Eve. Jess and Arte will pick up the torches.
19:05:54 From Marla&Kasha Slavner to Everyone : Will you send the chat? Lots of great info and references to resources here.
19:06:09 From Paul Soglin to Everyone : Karl is right about the threat of Fascism but we do have Eve, Jess and Arte
19:06:13 From Edwina Vogan to All panelists : Thanks John and all for a very good discussion.
