I love, love, love these doormats. Too bad they already sold out at Target.com after being featured on BoingBoing.
Crossing my fingers the company who made these will come out with a “You Can Talk to My Attorney.”
On a more serious note, if you are an activist who has experienced harassment because of your [...]

Sarah Kramer makes “domestic” terrorism look good.
Check out some of her fantastic vegan cookbooks below, including Vegan a Go-Go and the classic How It All Vegan. If you buy them through these Amazon links, a portion will be donated to GreenIsTheNewRed.com.

This is what happens when ya’ll leave me unsupervised on holidays.

The Saginaw News reports that among the 53 non-violent activists labeled as “terrorists” in that Maryland operation are two Dominican [...]

“Eco-terrorism” is a buzzword that corporations and the politicians who represent them have been throwing around more and more since 9/11. But like the bigger T-word, it’s a term without much of a definition. “Eco-terrorism” has been used to describe burning SUVs, and other property crimes by the Animal Liberation Front and Earth Liberation Front.

Following up on the recent post on surveillance, and Big Brother myths, I found this brilliant billboard improvement on the Groundswell Collective blog.

Here’s a cartoonist with a slightly different perspective than the Al Qaeda cartoon last week.
Don’t you love Stephanie McMillan? This is from MinimumSecurity.net.
The War on Terrorism has come home. Corporations and politicians are labeling activists "eco-terrorists" and national security threats. Think red-baiting, with a green twist. Here you'll find original reporting and analysis of the Green Scare, and history repeating itself.
