ELAINE BROWN WITHDRAWS
FROM GREEN PARTY PRESIDENTIAL RACE
Renounces Green Party Membership
_____________________________

OPEN STATEMENT TO THE GREEN PARTY

As of today, I am no longer a candidate for the Green Party nomination for president of the United States, and I hereby resign from all affiliation with the Green Party. I believe the leadership of the Green Party of the United States has been seized by neo-liberal men who entrench the Party in internecine antagonisms so as to compromise its stated principles and frustrate its electoral and other goals. They have made it impossible to advance any truly progressive ideals or objectives under the umbrella of the Green Party, and, thus, rendered it counterproductive for me to go forward as a Green Party candidate or member.

Peace and Unity 2007

On Sunday November 4th the Watsonville Peace and Unity coalition made up of the Berets, the YWCA, the Resource Center for Nonviolence, EA Hall Middle School Mecha, Viernes Cultural and many more organizations held the 14th Annual Peace and Unity March in the barrios of Watsonville. The day started at 11 AM with a vigil and some short words from invited guests and the presentation of the Barrio Warrior Awards to Luis Alejo and Lilliana Barrios. Then the March was led as always by the White Hawk Indigenous Danzantes and was followed by some of the family members of victims of violence. Following them was the Low Vintage Bike Club which led almost 300 people with some smooth cruisers and other tricked out bicicletas. The march went off without a hitch and we just want to thank everyone who made it happen.

More to come soon but check this Indymedia article for some cool photos!

First let’s talk about the good news. Congratulations are in order to Adisa Banjoko of the newly formed Hip Hop Chess Federation and the 1st Annual Chess Kings Kings Invitational Tournament, which was off the hook this past weekend. Special props are in order to the Rza of the famed Wu-Tang Clan as he repped to the fullest. Now, if you ever attended a Wu-Tang concert you will hear the crowd chanting loudly ‘Wu-Tang Clan ain’t nothing to fuck with!‘. In those scenarios the chant is around the incredible music the group puts out. Hands down, there simply isn’t a lot of groups who can get with them. However, that chant can now be applied to the world of chess.
