The Sunshine Project
"...But van Aken had a head start. In late 1999, he formed the Sunshine Project, e.V., a German non-profit association. The Project's name, a suggestion by van Aken's former co-worker Charles Margulis, is a reference to the fact that many biological weapons are quickly broken down and rendered harmless by exposure to bright sunlight."

"A New Kind Of Peace Movement" -- Recall some interesting discussion from this "public radio" show:
Charles Knight, Director of the Project for Defense Alternatives, at the Commonwealth Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Michael Lerner, editor of the Tikkum Magazine, Rabbi at Beyt Tikkum Synagogue in San Francisco
"...founded in 1999, aims to create a national grassroots movement to redefine campaign finance as a civil rights issue. We will connect the history of earlier voting and civil rights struggles to the ongoing struggle for human rights, and we will create an intergenerational movement that promotes the inclusion of young people as leaders in that effort. The Project will serve as a vehicle for traditional civil rights organizations and communities of color to engage in campaign finance reform initiatives. We will raise people's consciousness as to how the current campaign finance system restricts civic and political participation based on socioeconomic status, and therefore results in a disparate impact on communities of color. The Fannie Lou Hamer Project believes that fundamental reform in our campaign finance system is imperative in order to address fundamental issues in the areas of political, economic, and social justice."
"Since its inception nearly a year and a half ago, the Student Labor Action Project has played an integral role in student activism and offered solidarity with local labor struggles. From the streets of Quebec and New York to the classrooms and communities of Boston, we challenge the corporate tyrannies that seek to undermine our unions, our democracy, and a decent standard of living. In the tradition of non-violent resistance that Dr. Martin Luther King espoused, we will take to the streets to demand justice for workers, living wages, and the right to organize!"

"As people of conscience, working in solidarity with the Palestinian people, we, the Boston Committee for Palestinian Rights (BCPR), are united by the belief that peace will only last when there is justice for the Palestinian people. A true peace will begin only when there is acknowledgement of the losses suffered by the Palestinian people and a recognition of their individual and collective rights. A just solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict necessitates an end to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip, including the evacuation of all Israeli settlements; self-determination for the Palestinian people; and the application of international laws and UN resolutions."
Gaza Community Mental Health Programme
"Sound mental health is a product of the subjective feeling of well being and harmony with the environment. An oppressive environment is damaging to the self and to the community. We believe that the mental health worker should help promote basic human rights and join the community in striving for dignity, liberation, and peace.
The Gaza Community Mental Health Programme (GCMHP) is a Palestinian, non-governmental, non-profit organization established in 1990 to provide comprehensive community mental health services to the population of the Gaza Strip including therapy, training and research. It is one of the leading mental health organizations in Palestine.
The Programme was established to fill the urgent needs of the population resulting from the Israeli occupation's neglect of providing basic services to the population, including mental health services. Also, GCMHP's establishment came at a time during which mental health concerns were multiplied as a result of recurring exposure to the stress and trauma caused by the policies of the Israeli occupation and the resulting social problems.
Therapy, Rehabilitation, and Public Awareness:
In 1990, GCMHP started out with one clinic in Gaza City. Since then, it has established 3 other clinics in Jabalia, Khan Younis, and Deir El-Balah to serve all areas of population concentration in the Gaza Strip. Medical teams in the clinics provide different types of psychotherapy including play therapy for children..."
The Bereaved Families' Forum ("Bereaved Parents Circle") is a group that was formed to bring together bereaved families of those killed in the fighting between Israelis and Palestinians. It includes both Israeli families and Palestinian families -- no longer political rivals, but fellow humans brought together by the most profound type of grief, the loss of a loved one. "

Trans-Arab Research Institute "... Middle East is the most strategic area in the world today, and recognizing that it faces a number of destabilizing issues which can only be resolved on the basis of international law and justice, TARI aims to provide focused research and public venues to analyze, discuss and present optional perspectives on their solution. The various solutions proposed or being implemented in the area do not observe the two basic principles of law and justice. As such, the area will continue to be unstable and insecure for all interested local and international actors. TARI's goal is to scrutinize the causes and explore what policies will help promote stability with justice."

Suraida Saleh
"A 21 YEAR OLD PALESTINIAN-AMERICAN IS SHOT AND KILLED BY ISRAELI SOLDIERS IN RAMALLAH: HER FAMILY SPEAKS OUT"
"The massive assault on the city of Nablus last night is just the latest step in Israel's methodical offensive against the Palestinians. Israeli forces have taken over six major West Bank towns and cities -- Ramallah, Qalqiliya, Jenin, Tulkarem, Bethlehem, Nablus. The towns of Jericho and Hebron remain the last islands in Palestinian control. Thousands of Palestinians have been arrested, and countless others have been killed and injured.
(see front page) Yesterday on Democracy Now! we spoke to the father of the first victim of Israel's latest siege on Ramallah. 21-year-old Suraida Saleh was shot and killed by Israeli soldiers in Ramallah last Friday. She was holding her 9-month old baby in her lap. And as the group American Muslims for Global Peace and Justice discovered, Suraida Saleh was also a US citizen, born in George Washington Hospital in Washington, DC."

"Math concept transfer", bilterate, hopefully that's the goal as heard during a Linda P. interview. I tried contacting the guests but maybe I had their names wrong.
The price of my keeping mostly with independent media sources aside from "professional" reasons to informally watch and react to corporate media is the missing of hearing about the demise of Five on Five.
Why is it public radio at top of hour news refer to people as "hecklers" rather than note them being from Global Exchange or simply an expression from concerned citizens unlike too many who appear to accept the killing of women and children or Mad. Allbright's worth of all those lives, I thought the reasoning was that sanctions/starving children was to prevent such a threat as King W says the US now faces.
